I am helping

Chapter 434 It's too bad!
"Everyone keep calm!"

"Listen to my order and fire again!"

Zhang Dabiao held an MP40 submachine gun, bowed his body and shuttled through the trenches while shouting.

This position is larger than the Baozishan position.

Therefore, Zhang Dabiao set up two companies on the frontal slope, with a total of more than 500 people, making the devil look like the Eighth Route Army has only one battalion at most.

In fact, there are two infantry companies and an artillery company of the first battalion on the back slope position.

And in the vicinity of Dagu Town farther away, the main battalions of the Xinyi Regiment are gathering.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie heard that Li Yunlong has meat to eat, and they are also gathering troops, preparing to lead part of the main force to reinforce the new regiment.

Soon, the front row of the devils entered the position of 30 meters from the forward position.

Both the Japanese soldiers and the Eighth Route Army soldiers could clearly see the murderous expressions on each other's faces.

Under normal circumstances, to prevent the devils from rushing into the position, put the devils in a position of 100 meters or 50 meters to fire.

But Zhang Dabiao is not afraid, because he is very confident in the firepower of his subordinates.

Under this kind of intensive firepower blockade, not to mention the devil's infantry, even the devil's cavalry would never be able to charge into the first battalion's position.

And the position of 30 meters, in addition to being suitable for various guns, the grenade can also get the devil's front row.

"Fire!"

Seeing the devil's front row soldiers striding into the 30-meter mark of the forward position, Zhang Dabiao gave orders loudly, and his rough and murderous howl soared into the sky.

Da da da…

Puff puff…

At this moment, the soldiers who received the order to fire pulled the triggers of the weapons in their hands.

The gunshots rang out like popping beans, and the fired bullets immediately poured towards the devil like raindrops.

The devils who were charging were caught off guard and fell one after another, but the devils were not afraid of death. The devils in the front row fell, and the devils in the back row followed.

In addition to the firepower of the two infantry companies of the first battalion, there are also eight Maxims of a heavy machine gun company working almost non-stop.

The devil's attack was firmly suppressed at a distance of more than 100 meters, and at a distance of 30 meters to more than 100 meters, a large number of devil corpses were left behind, and the devil could not move forward.

As the barrage began to extend, it didn't take long to suppress the devil at a distance of 200 meters. The devil continued to charge forward and fell down again and again.

At a distance of 200 meters, the accuracy of the submachine gun has been greatly reduced, but it is very suitable for semi-automatic rifles, light machine guns and heavy machine guns.

Although the devils are also fighting back, especially the devil's grenadier, within three rounds, it must be able to hit a firepower point of the first battalion.

But the devil's firepower was always suppressed. The devil's grenadiers fired at most two grenades, and they would be found by the snipers of the first battalion, and then suppressed and killed.

On the top of the mountain, the headquarters of the new regiment.

"Haha, the first battalion fought really well!"

Seeing through the binoculars that the devils who were attacking later were suppressed, they searched for cover in panic to avoid the rain of bullets.

Li Yunlong's tone was very satisfied.

"Lu Yingjun, have you found the devil's artillery position, can you kill the devil's artillery position?"

Then, Li Yunlong asked Lu Yingjun, who was lying on one side and observing with the artillery mirror.

Lu Yingjun immediately replied: "Reporting to the commander, the devil's artillery position is located on the reverse slope of the mountain four kilometers away, and our mountain artillery and howitzers cannot hit it."

Li Yunlong asked again: "What about the 150mm howitzer, can it hit it?"

"The shooting range is enough." Lu Yingjun said, "There is a depression next to the road behind the reverse slope of the mountain, and you can't see the impact point, so you can't adjust the shooting elements according to the impact point."

Li Yunlong cursed: "This is not okay, and that is not okay, what do you observers do?"

The movement just now was definitely made by a mountain artillery regiment.

If the devil's mountain artillery unit can be killed, what kind of attack will the little devil use?
Moreover, the business of killing a Guizishan Artillery Regiment must be very lucrative.

Lu Yingjun muttered softly: "There is no way, the devil's artillery is not a fool, how could it be possible to set up artillery positions under the nose of the Eighth Route Army?"

"It's a pity, the little devil won't let our old Li get rich!"

Commander Li sighed, and then asked: "The First Pao Battalion and the Second Pao Battalion, the infantry who fight the devil's attack, can they always be defeated?"

"I can hit it!"

This time Lu Yingjun nodded, his tone was extremely certain.

"Then call the First Pao Battalion and the Second Pao Battalion, and shoot all the shells at the attacking devil infantry!" Li Yunlong ordered.

"Commander, do we need to use the 150mm howitzer?" Lu Yingjun asked.

"Don't move the 150mm howitzer for now!" Li Yunlong said, "Two artillery battalions are enough!"

Although the 150mm howitzer has been prepared and within a range of 15 kilometers, Li Yunlong will not use strategic weapons unless it is absolutely necessary.

Before ordering to pull out the 150mm howitzer, it was because Li Yunlong was afraid that the first battalion would not be able to stop the attack of the Devils, an infantry regiment and an artillery regiment.

But now it seems that even if the devils come to another alliance, it will be difficult to win the next battalion.

At the beginning, the Fourth Battalion used the reverse slope and tunnel tactics to kill more than 3000 devils in Baozi Mountain. Now that the main battalion of the new regiment has come, the same tactics can't kill more than [-] devils?

You must know that the Fourth Battalion has just been established, and its combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the old troops like the New Regiment and the First Battalion.

However, the Battle of Baozi Mountain also made Chen Dagu and Siying famous.

All the bigwigs who know a little bit about the new regiment know that Li Yunlong has a lot of strong generals under his command.

"Yes!"

After Lu Yingjun responded loudly, he immediately picked up the high-power walkie-talkie and sent a series of shots to the First Pao Battalion and the Second Pao Battalion.

Shooting Zhu Yuan was calculated long ago.

The devils were suppressed at a position more than 200 meters away from the forward position. At this position, there was no need to worry too much about their own position being hit by shells.

The front command of the new regiment issued an order for shelling.

Following the flag commanders of the First Pao Battalion and the Second Pao Battalion, they suddenly put down the fire command flags in their hands.

The sound of the guns tore through the sky in an instant, and the first round of more than 80 shells fired almost simultaneously fell on the road to the west of Dagu Town where the devils attacked.

Metal projectiles with a breath of death cut through the air and made a terrifying hissing sound, and the attacking devil infantry was immediately plunged into a sea of ​​smoke and flames.

In order to achieve the suddenness of the shelling, the first artillery battalion and the second artillery battalion did not conduct pre-test firing, but carried out artillery coverage as soon as they came up.

Try to make the artillery shells of the first artillery battalion and the second artillery battalion located five kilometers behind fall on the devil's head at the same time.

A few shells missed the target and landed near the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army, but most of the shells landed on the devils' heads.

No earthworks, no reinforced concrete, not even decent bunkers.

Even if the devil infantry heard the whistling sound of the shells and fell to the ground, or made rolling movements to try to escape from the impact point, the power of the explosion was not comparable to that of 60mm mortar shells or 70mm infantry shells, and they could not avoid the explosion at all. Air waves and sharp shrapnel.

Before the first round of shelling, there were still many devils lying behind the bunkers, crawling behind the corpses of the dead devils, setting up machine guns or rifles to shoot at the positions of the Eighth Route Army.

But after the shells fell, where the devil infantry was, the gunfire suddenly became extremely sparse and sporadic.

A large number of devils were wailing in pain, bomb craters were densely covered, and stumped limbs and arms were everywhere.

The two artillery battalions of the new regiment, each artillery battalion has about 40 75mm cannons, and each artillery battalion has more cannons than the 36th Artillery Regiment of the Devil.

This is still without the use of 19 150mm howitzers, otherwise the artillery fire would be more powerful, and it would directly cause no grass to grow within a few hundred meters of the devil infantry's attack.

……

"Baga, Yalu!"

Seeing this scene in the field of vision of the telescope, Jing Guanren's face suddenly became extremely gloomy.

Great!
It's okay that the infantry firepower of the eighth route exceeded his expectations, and even the artillery firepower of the eighth route is so powerful.

This was the first time that the 36th Division had fought against the Xinyi Regiment, and Jing Guanren had experienced the continuous firepower of the Xinyi Regiment in just one fight.

When the vanguard of the 222rd Infantry Battalion of the 3nd Regiment was only 30 meters away from the forward position of the new regiment.

Sparks as dense as stars suddenly appeared on the new group of positions. Jing Guanren knew very well that they were flames from submachine guns and light and heavy machine guns.

The number of them was so large that Jing Guanren lamented that the firepower of the new regiment could not even match that of the standing divisions of the Japanese army.

The attacking Japanese soldiers fell in pieces under the dense rain of bullets like locusts. This was a firepower network composed of hundreds of semi-automatic rifles, submachine guns, and light and heavy machine guns.

But this is not over yet, the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army is the deadliest. More than two artillery positions of the Mountain Artillery Regiment opened fire at the same time, and pieces of artillery shells fell from the heads of the attacking Japanese soldiers.

The Eighth Route Army only had a few rounds of shooting and a round of shelling, causing more than half of the attacking 3rd Infantry Brigade to suffer casualties.

This is a big loss!

"Order, the 3rd Infantry Battalion retreat immediately!"

Jing Guanren gritted his teeth and ordered.

"Hi!"

The devil's flag commander hurriedly used semaphore to give orders to the devil's infantry who were being bombarded.

In fact, without waiting for Jing Guanren's order, the 3rd Infantry Battalion was already fleeing to the rear under the order of the captain.

It was a rout rather than a retreat. The devils couldn't stand it anymore, and they ran wildly in the direction they came from with their guns in hand.

But the shelling of the Eighth Route Army was not over yet. The artillery shells of the Eighth Route Army seemed to have eyes. Wherever the devil infantry fled, the shells could accurately fall on the devils' heads.

Xu Jin barrage!

This is Xu Jin's barrage!

Jing Guanren's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He never imagined that the Eighth Route Army's artillery skills were so high that they could fire such difficult artillery attacks as Xu Jin's barrage from several kilometers away.

A full infantry brigade of more than a thousand people attacked, thinking that they could take down the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop and take advantage of the situation to capture Dagu Town.

But the result surprised Jing Guanren and other devil officers.

Only less than 200 people escaped in the end.

Seeing that the first wave of devils' attack suffered heavy losses, the corners of Li Yunlong's mouth turned up slightly.

Hehe, labor and management just made a small move, which is already the limit of a regiment-level battle. Labor and management don't even know what an opponent is.
