Chapter 174 This is how artillery plays

The 108th Division is a special division with more than 10,000 people and several regiments. The security group and the Sichuan Army targeted one of them in this ambush!

After easily capturing Shexian County, the little Japanese planned to use Shexian County as a supply point and start to advance towards Changzhi. And Dongyangguan is the first stop!

The little devil is not given for free! People have already had the military map of Dongyang Pass, and it is more detailed than the maps of the Jinsui Army and the Central Army!

Therefore, Xiayuan, an old devil, knows that here in Dongyang Pass, even if the entire division is on the attack, he can't do anything. He simply sends out a regiment to attack, and the rest are used as reserves!

The old devil is very confident in his regiment. He has never been defeated by a single division of the Central Army before, not to mention that he has strengthened a few infantry artillery pieces?

But things were so unexpected! He didn't expect anyone to dare to ambush his team! The key is that if you ambush, what does it mean to have such fierce firepower?

Of course, Xia Yuan was not at the scene and did not know the horror of directional mines and rapid-fire booms. He only thought that the regiment was attacked by mines and mortars, as well as machine gun fire.

How many mortars can the Rabbits have? How many machine guns can they have? Our 92nd Heavy and Crooked Handle are not just vegetarians, and they also have infantry cannons and grenade launchers!

But even if he didn't care, he still let the reserve regiment press forward, and even the artillery regiment drove out of the city!

The purpose was to capture Dongyang Pass, capture Licheng, capture Changzhi and even the whole of Shanxi in one go! In his eyes, the ambush troops were not worth mentioning at all, they were just harassment!

However, when the subsequent team arrived at the scene, they were immediately dumbfounded!

On the Handan-Changchun Highway, the remaining few hundred Japanese soldiers, under the command of a captain, were desperately attacking a "small ridge" across the road in front of them.

And on the "little mountain ridge", countless Japanese soldiers have fallen.

"Where is your commander?" The Japs commander grabbed a dull-looking Japs soldier next to him and asked.

"In...in..." the Japanese soldiers pointed to the "small ridge" blocking the road. Obviously, their commander was directly buried...

"Kill a few..." Another attack was organized from the front. I saw a dozen soldiers jumping over a large pit and rushing up to the "small mountain ridge", but they were quickly wiped out by side fire from the mountains on both sides.

above.

There were grenades firing at both sides, but the weak firepower seemed so insufficient here...

"Eight Yalu!" the Japanese captain could only curse...

It was Battalion Commander Luo's battalion that was fighting the Japs up the mountain. Their mission was to block the enemy's attack and cover the evacuation of the large forces! For this reason, Commander Yang specially strengthened them with three light machine guns.

Battalion Commander Luo was so smart that he directly put his troops on the ground and used the earth and rocks blown down to block the enemy, and set up a blocking position.

It's a pity that this is the Taihang Mountains. The mountain structure is solid and it is not easy to cause landslides! Otherwise, it is possible to directly bury the canyon.

To put it bluntly, to engage in interdiction is to sacrifice oneself to protect everyone! But the current situation is that it is really impossible not to engage in interdiction. So many things have been seized and must be transported away quickly. It is not okay to leave them here for the Japanese!

In order to support Battalion Commander Luo, Hu Yizhou specially took out 2,000 Jiuzhai military grenades from the transport truck and gave them to Commander Luo, asking them to work hard to make them.

In this way, about a ton of load can be freed up to transport the rest of the supplies. Perhaps these seized supplies are not as precious as Jiuzhai grenades, but they cannot be left to the little devils!

Because of the collapsed earth and rocks, the terrain here in Xiangtangpu is higher, and the canyon is also winding. Therefore, the little devils who came for reinforcements did not know that just when they stopped attacking and asked for tactical guidance, the security guard

The regiment and the Sichuan troops marched towards Dongyang Pass with the captured supplies, the wounded and the bodies of the brothers who died in battle!

Why did the little Japanese stop the attack? They were waiting for the artillery! They were waiting for an artillery regiment to come over before bombing! Of course, the artillery fire belonging to their regiment did not stop, and they kept bombing Camp Commander Luo and their positions!

As for the effect... there are many hills here, and reverse slopes are easy to find...

"Master Dao!" Hu Yizhou called to Chen Beixuan before setting off.

"Here!" Lao Dao ran over.

"Master Dao, you take the remaining two squads of the special operations platoon to replenish ammunition first, and then take those three grenades and head east. Remove this phone line first, and then assist the two artillery squads in the fight.

The Japanese artillery regiment!"

"Remember, stop as soon as you're ready! Run after the fight! Let Zhang Dali and the others take you around the path and go directly to Longwangmiao Village to wait for us!"

Hu Yizhou also ambushed two artillery squads to no avail. This was prepared for the Japanese artillery! No matter they were marching or bombing, 50 rounds of artillery shells were enough for them to drink a pot!

The remaining ten rounds are for self-protection!

In addition, Hu Yizhou arranged for three squads of the special operations platoon to protect them, so even if the Japanese sent out a small team to chase them, they would not be able to take advantage!

Speaking of grenade launchers, a lot of them were seized this time, a total of 58. Even if they were damaged, they could still make up 54. Hu Yizhou is considering adding three grenade launchers to each platoon.

.

Of course, there were quite a few Japanese killed this time, more than 2,000! This does not include those buried in the ground, those blown to ashes, and those that cannot be counted later.

There was a brief period of tranquility on the Handan-Changchang Highway east of Dongyang Pass. After seeing that the bombardment had little effect, the little Japanese stopped decisively and just waited for the artillery regiment to come over!

On this side, the security regiment and the Sichuan Army marched toward Dongyang Pass.

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the minefield, and there were small red flags everywhere. Everyone had to carefully advance along the road under the command of the engineers, and no one dared to run around.

To the east, the Japs finally arrived with the long-awaited artillery regiment. 48 Type 41 mountain guns began to set up artillery positions in the fairly wide canyon area. The heavy machine gun brigade also came with reinforcements, plus the company

The heavy machine guns belonging to the alliance are not lacking in firepower!

In the mountains to the north, Zhang Dali of the special operations platoon led his men to hide in the dense forest, quietly observing every move of the Japs, waiting for the best opportunity. A phone was hidden next to him, which was for

It is used by the artillery team behind the mountain to correct ballistics.

Camp Commander Luo was also very nervous at the moment. Our hiding place was good, but when we saw the situation in front of us, we knew that we would not be able to survive. We could only hope that the order to retreat would be issued soon...

After two hours of traveling, Hu Yizhou and the others finally returned to Dongyang Pass. The ambush was finally over for the time being.

Although the beloved motorcycle was not captured, six relatively intact infantry cannons and a large number of shells were enough to comfort the regret!

However, as soon as he entered Dongyang Pass, he met a group of people he didn't expect...
Chapter completed!
