Chapter 812 shelling from all sides
"Hay!" The communications soldier immediately went to inform the company's artillery.
"Ba... Oh my god, there are so many mosquitoes! Be alert, our battalion commander's safety depends on us! Observers, all look forward to the hill opposite, don't give the Japanese a chance to shoot a second shot!" Zhai Changlin said casually by slapping a mosquito to death.
"I understand, battalion commander, just look at it, we are all staring at it!" the soldiers replied.
That's right, just as the Japanese in the 136th Regiment occupying Dongshan were preparing to attack the positions of the 2nd and 3rd Company of the Cannon Company, Zhai Changlin was leading the remaining 8 artillery groups of the 1st Company of the Cannon Company, the 6 82-force artillery groups of the 3rd Battalion, and the two 120mm artillery groups left here to hide on the mountain edge of the Beishan Mountain.
Of course, they were not here to watch the fun, but to guard against the Japanese on the opposite side of the East Mountain to launch shelling towards Xiangdong and others.
Although the artillery belonging to a corps only has 4 Type 41 mountain cannons, this is also a great threat and must be knocked out as soon as possible.
However, it is almost impossible to accurately find the Japanese artillery positions across a valley and some high and low hills.
Therefore, a group of people could only wait on the mountain, and wait for the artillery of the 136th Regiment of the Japanese Regiment to launch their positions when the artillery soldiers fired, and then directly covered them.
"Prepare... a test shot, shoot..." Just as Zhai Changlin and the others were talking, the Japanese artillery squadron leader personally directed the test shot.
"Boom..." A shell shot was fired from the Four-Year Mountain Cannon and flew quickly to the position where it was located in the east.
"Chir...boom..." The shells flew over the many hills in Dongshan and directly hit the edge of the mountain where the cannon camp's position was located.
"Damn it, this is the Japanese test firing, the artillery fire was suspended, and they all hid in a safe position!" Xiang Dongfang was almost bombed here, so he quickly ordered to dodge.
"Yes, avoid it!" The soldiers of various artillery groups rushed towards a mountain line on the west side of the position.
"Retreat quickly, evacuate quickly!" Under the greeting of the artillery, the soldiers of the guards in charge of protection also moved to the safe area.
In fact, due to the terrain, due to the terrain, body-barrier artillery such as mountain cannons and field cannons have many restrictions. Not only are the ballistics easily blocked, but they are also heavy in weight, which is not conducive to transfer.
Therefore, mortars that are light in weight, bent in the trajectory, and can be used to fight cattle across the mountains are more suitable for mountain combat. Therefore, Hu Yizhou asked the arsenal to vigorously manufacture and develop mortars instead of body-barred artillery.
Of course, it is also very important to make mortars simple.
Needless to say, with a test shot of the Japanese, they directly ordered the artillery positions to the east and led the artillery to hide in a safe place. As for the heavy mortars and shells, they were abandoned on the positions and allowed the upcoming shells to bombard them.
This is undoubtedly a waste, but it is better than the artillery being bombed. This is how the world of the rich is.
At the same time, on the artillery position in Beishan, Zhai Changlin and his group were making intense calculations based on the flames they had just seen and the ballistic traces drawn by the shells. The soldiers of the artillery group who were following each other were also preparing artillery shells so that they could counterattack at any time.
What they did at the same time was the artillery observer of the 136th Regiment hiding on the west slope of the east and west mountain to report the landing point to the artillery by phone.
"Yaxi, the artillery shells we tested were moved 35 meters southward from the enemy's artillery position, and adjust the coordinates immediately!" The Japanese artillery squadron leader was also waiting nervously.
"No, the artillery position was bombarded! Brothers, no matter there. It doesn't matter if they stop, let's continue to blow up the Japanese!" This was Gundam's words.
The Japanese's test firing was also seen by them, so Gundam chose to continue to pour the remaining shells onto the Japanese artillery positions.
This is a typical example of a single actuation of the whole body. The artillery shells tested by the 136th Regiment triggered everyone's actions and formed a chain reaction.
Time passed by a little by little in the numerous chain reactions, and the Japanese finally adjusted the coordinates.
"Prepare...release!" The Japanese squadron leader waved the flag.
"Boom boom boom boom boom..." Four cannons fired, and four 75mm mountain cannon shells flew into the sky.
"Jiuchi...boom boom boom..." Where we were originally staying in Dongfang and the others, we were hit by shells one after another, and the fires that exploded looked particularly bright.
"Report to the battalion commander, I've confirmed it, it's this coordinate!" A gunman shouted excitedly at Zhai Changlin.
"What are you waiting for? Fry it for me and fry it hard!" Zhai Changlin shouted loudly, and looked at the west side with concern.
"One shot... release!"
"put……"
"Bangbang...bangbangbang..."
With the orders from the gunmen, 14 82-forced shells flew into the sky with 2 120-forced shells and flew towards the artillery position of the 136th Regiment.
"Shoot…boom…"
"Jiuchi..."
The artillery soldiers of the 136th Regiment were blowing up and suddenly heard the sound of shells whistling.
"Do not, avoid quickly! Why do the security regiment have artillery?" Hearing the roaring sound, the Japanese exploded.
Then, without waiting for the Japanese to react too much, the whistling shells landed around them, and a series of explosions began to sound.
"Boom boom boom..." As the explosion sounded, countless fragments flew with the shock wave, and they would hit them hard when they encountered any obstacles.
Although the landing point of this shelling was not that accurate, it could not withstand the number. A total of 18 shells were bombed together, and only four mountain cannons were dealt with.
Then, several consecutive waves of shells flew over from the south slope of the North Mountain and continued to explode around the Japanese artillery positions, forming a carpet-like effect with the previous wave.
Then... nothing happened.
He used the most elite artillery in the security regiment, as well as Zhai Changlin's personal command, and five rounds of artillery attacks, and he could not get rid of just four mountain cannons?
"Give the battalion commander a call, we have completed the bombing of the artillery position of the 136th Regiment!" Zhai Changlin said to the correspondents.
"I understand!" The correspondent soldier went to call.
That's right, for the convenience of command, the telephone line was taken over with the artillery battalion.
"Okay, understand, let Zhai Changlin pay close attention to the direction of Dongshan! Brothers, enter the position immediately, let's continue!" He lowered the phone to Dongfang and brought the artillery back to the position.
"Each artillery group, check the losses! Continue to bomb the enemy artillery gang positions immediately!" As soon as you enter the position, you immediately ordered the east.
"Report to the battalion commander, the first squad of the 2nd Company was in place, without any losses!"
"Report to the battalion commander, the second squad of the second company is in place, without any losses!"
“…Ship 2nd Company and 3rd Squad, the mortar was seriously damaged…”
As soon as the situation was summarized, three 120 mortars were lost. Fortunately, there was no loss because the shells were released far away.
