Chapter 864 The Attack Begins

"Old Xia, sit down, don't worry. The mission of your third battalion is not to follow the assault vehicle, but to continue to attack from the north slope of the east mountain!" Hu Yizhou said.

"Continue to launch an attack from the north slope?" Xia Tian said in confusion.

"That's right, not only must we launch an attack, but we must also attack fiercely! At the same time, the 1st company of the Second Battalion came down directly from the North Mountain and made an attacking position in the valley east of Sanchakou!" Hu Yizhou said.

"Everyone wants to know why? We don't attack more violently. How do the Japanese ask for help? How do we fight for help?" Hu Yizhou said.

"You mean we are all feint attacking?" Xia Tian asked.

"Few attack is not a feint attack. There will be artillery battalion ahead to plow a few passages from the front of the Japanese position. You should attack and attack as much as possible, but try to slow down the rhythm of the assault and reduce casualties as much as possible!"

"Do you understand what I mean? Attack fiercely from afar, try to ensure the minimum casualties when approaching the attack. Let the Japanese think we will launch a frontal attack from Beishan!" Hu Yizhou said.

"I understand!" Xia Tian said.

"Okay, this is the general strategy. Let me arrange the specific combat deployment below! Fang Hao, Du Wei!" Hu Yizhou shouted.

"Come on, come!" The two brothers stood up.

"Your mission is to cooperate with the assault vehicle to advance forward. After the assault vehicle blows up the Japanese bunker, your people will go up and clean up the enemies, and protect the assault vehicle from being approached by the Japanese!" Hu Yizhou said.

"I understand!" the brothers said in unison.

"Hu Jin, your mission is to take the supplementary battalion and the fourth artillery company to the south and help explore the enemy situation, select ambush areas, and arrange directional minefields! Remember, bring more directional mines, this thing is very useful!" Hu Yizhou said.

"I understand!" Hu Jin stood attentively.

"Jiang Dajiang..." Hu Yizhou began to arrange the combat details of other troops, and even detailed the specific arrangements of each platoon.

After the meeting was over, the company commanders of each battalion quickly left the regiment headquarters, returned to their defense zone, and prepared to launch an attack.

The attack time was chosen in the morning of the day after tomorrow, and they had three days to prepare. Of course, this period was prepared for the supplementary camp and they were intertwined, which took time.

Not only Liu Gan needs time, but also the Eighth Route Army also needs time to mobilize troops. Otherwise, the security team will destroy all the Japanese reinforcements in Licheng, and the Eighth Route Army is still rushing on the road. How can it be done?

So, after formulating a combat plan, the rest is to mobilize troops and prepare for attack! At least, the third battalion, which is the main feint attack, still needs to replenish the bullets from Dalian? It also needs to choose a place to climb Dongshan?

Of course, we should prepare for attack and make sure that the correction of the existing defense zone must continue.

Don’t ask why, even if Licheng is captured, the security team’s defense zone will still be the same as before and there will be no big changes.

At most, a company of troops will be sent to defend at Sanchakou. However, the supplementary battalion is still stationed in the Nanweiquan Basin, so how to defend is Liu Gan’s problem.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was October 5th.

This day was also the day when Hu Yizhou launched an attack on Sanchakou.

"Report to the regiment commander, the artillery battalion is ready, and request an attack!" Jiang Dajiang's voice came into Hu Yizhou's ears from the phone.

"Agree to the attack!" Hu Yizhou said calmly.

"Yes! All units should pay attention to it, start!" Jiang Dajiang put down the phone and issued a starting order to the 23rd Cannon Company in the temporary command center.

"Prepare, let go!" Ten artillery team leaders not far away issued orders almost at the same time.

"Canglang..." The loading hand released the 120mm mortar shell that he had held tightly, allowing the shell to fall quickly in the barrel, making a sound of metal friction.

"Bang..." The mortar shell hit the bottom, and the launching medicine package wrapped around the heel wing in the tail tube was ignited by a fuze. After rapid combustion, a large amount of high-pressure gas was generated, sending the mortar shells to the sky.

"Bangbang..." In the 10 loud bangs that sounded one after another, 10 120mm mortar shells were hit into the sky.

"Jiuchi...boom boom boom..." After flying for a few kilometers, the shells exploded on the south slope of the East Mountain.

Yes, the security team's attack also began with shelling.

Because the Japanese did not have mountain artillery and field artillery with a longer range, and no reconnaissance planes were flying in the sky, the heavy mortars of the security regiment had no opponents, and it was just the time to exert their power.

So after the artillery soldiers' hard handling, Hu Yizhou directly placed 10 mortar groups on the south side of the south slope of the North Mountain. In this way, the heavy mortars could fully cover the Japanese fortification groups.

"Boom boom boom...boom boom boom..." The artillery soldiers were not very fast, and they would almost stop for five to ten seconds before they could fire the second shell.

However, the landing point of the shell was extremely accurate. Two death lines were blown up on Dongshan, and they spread directly from the top of the mountain to the bunker groups on both sides of the valleys.

Then, the shells began to bomb the bunker group.

Even though the mortar shells do not have much damage to the strong bunker fortifications, they are enough to shock the Japanese's sensitive nerves.

"Baga, is the artillery fire of the security team really so fierce?" Captain Suzuki looked at the fortification group that was raging with artillery shells on the mountain and cursed in anger.

"Captain, do you want to ask for tactical guidance?" asked the brigade's staff.

"No, I haven't seen the attacking ground troops yet, so don't worry!" Although Colonel Suzuki was anxious, he was not in a hurry to ask for help.

"Brothers, get on!" Just as the artillery bombed, the soldiers of the Third Battalion began to climb up the north slope of the east mountain, preparing to launch an attack after the artillery was over.

Just as the soldiers of the Third Battalion were climbing the mountain, a convoy of 12 trucks drove down from the second slope under the protection of the first guard company and headed towards the south valley of the East Mountain.

This convoy is the modified truck fleet that Hu Yizhou has high hopes for. Except for three trucks that help pull the guns, the remaining nine trucks have been modified and reinforced.

Except for the rubber tires, these cars have thick armor layers reinforced in other positions. Even the outside of the tires are steel plates to protect the tires from being hit by bullets and single pieces.

This is not the point, the point is what is being pulled on these cars.

The two trucks lined up in the front had a three-seven cannon placed in the carriage, with only a long gun barrel poking out from one side.

There is nothing to say about the top of the four cars in the middle.

The most amazing thing is actually the three modified trucks behind. What is surprising is not the truck itself, but the things pulled inside the truck's bucket and the things dragged behind the truck.

I saw a row of thick rockets neatly placed in the car bucket equipped with armor.

Behind the car is an object composed of two large tires, 12 and launch tubes.
