Heroes of the War of Resistance

Although there is an elite division by his side, Dizhou Libing still knows it in his heart.The place where they are at the moment is not a place they are familiar with.If there is a little carelessness, the main force of the division may fall into the siege of the main force of the anti-Japanese forces.

In order to cope with the full-scale attack of the Japanese army, nearly one million anti-Japanese troops were also organized.Although the core area of ​​confrontation between the two armies is Wuhan, Lu'an can also be regarded as the gateway to Wuhan.There are also quite a few defensive troops around here.

If the rear is not completely straightened out, Dizhou Libing will not dare to take risks and advance alone.Don't look at the Japanese soldiers boasting that they can't fight wars, but ants kill elephants too much.If they are not careful, they may all pay a heavy price.

As the head of the division, no one wants to return home with a defeat.I would rather advance slowly, but also proceed steadily.Postponing for a few days to give the troops a rest, Dizhou Libing felt that it would also help the recovery of the combat troops and increase the chances of winning for the follow-up operations.

After receiving the call back from Dizhou Libing, even though the telegram used words of reprimand, the garrison officer of Luzhou City still felt a long sigh of relief.In addition to the required air force reconnaissance, there is an additional wing of reinforcements.

Just when the defenders of Luzhou City were happy for the coming reinforcements.Hu Biao, who had been fighting for a day during the day, appeared outside Luzhou City with the most direct guard platoon.Looking at Luzhou City not far away, he showed a cruel smile.

Looking at Xu Sandao who was beside him, he said, "The little devil's artillery squadron counterattacked last night. You probably know the exact location?"

"Know!"

"Then do you think they will move the artillery positions tonight?"

"Probably not! Except for the first two shellings last night, their artillery counterattacked for a while, and the back has been very quiet!"

"Okay! Tonight, the shelling will continue. In addition, I will give you a special mission to lead people into Luzhou City to conduct reconnaissance for the artillery. The warehouses and barracks in the city will be given to the little devil tonight."

"Detachment Captain, if you want to bombard the little devil's warehouse and barracks, the mortars probably won't be able to reach them!"

"Don't worry! You just need to report the location parameters, and leave the rest to me!"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Sandao immediately understood that this mysterious detachment leader seemed to have acquired a longer range and more powerful artillery.In this way, the Japanese and puppet troops in Luzhou City will have another extremely difficult sleepless night tonight!

According to the situation detected earlier, the number of Japanese troops stationed in Luzhou City should be around one infantry regiment.Including the puppet troops it incorporated, the number of Japanese and puppet troops in Luzhou City at this moment should be about 5000, and it is also equipped with an artillery squadron.

According to common sense, there are so many counties where the Japanese and puppet troops are stationed. If the anti-Japanese troops want to attack, they need to send at least one main division.In addition, there must be a lot of artillery for attacking fortifications, otherwise the city of Luzhou, which is well-defended, would not be able to attack at all.

But for Hu Biao at this moment, the total strength of the entire task force is less than 400.Even if he contacted the guerrillas in the territory, the number of troops under Hu Biao's command at this time still cannot be compared with the Japanese and puppet troops in Luzhou City.

The problem is that Hu Biao doesn't intend to play his cards according to common sense, but intends to nibble away the Japanese and puppet troops in the city little by little.According to the shelling situation last night, Hu Biao believed that the little devils in Luzhou City tonight should not dare to go out of the city to fight easily.

If the little devil really dared to go out to fight in the city, then Hu Biao would feel more at ease.With night battles and field battles, the task force can show its strength even more.Cooperating with the guerrillas who are good at guerrilla warfare, they should be able to deal with the little devil even worse.

After a day of tossing, the atmosphere in Luzhou City should become very tense.If the little devil is not stupid, he will definitely make corresponding arrangements to break the current dilemma and deadlock.If you think about harassment again, it won't be as easy as it is today.

Thinking that Luzhou City had stored a lot of supplies and ammunition needed by the Japanese army divisions, and it was impossible to send troops to make a surprise attack, they had to use long-range artillery fire to blow them up.In this way, the defenders in the city were further oppressed.

After giving Xu Sandao the order to infiltrate, Hu Biao led the most elite guard platoon to a hill near the south of the city.Near the road in front of the city gate in the south of the city, a combat company has assembled in place, just waiting for the little devil to attack.

In addition, Hu Biao also dispatched the rest of the combat troops near the rest of the city gates.Although the guerrillas who cooperated with the battle stayed in the rear battlefield to rest.But if there are combat missions, they can also quickly come to join the battle.

Although the combat capabilities of the guerrillas are average, there are a large number of guerrillas.In addition, at the end of the day, Hu Biao changed the weapons and equipment for the guerrillas collectively.Pulled to the battlefield to fight against, the number alone can make it difficult for the little devil.

Looking at the artillery placed on the temporary artillery position, Tian Tiezhu, who was staying beside Hu Biao, still couldn't hide his shock and said: "Detachment leader, how did these big guys get here? With these big guys, we can directly attack city!"

"Nonsense! Let's just use our troops. Even if we blow up Luzhou City and rush into the city to get entangled with the little devils, what do you think will happen? Even if we can wipe out the little devils in the city, how many people will we have left in the end? Woolen cloth?"

As for the artillery placed on the positions, they were all placed on the mountainside when Hu Biao led the guards to line up after nightfall.As for how these cannons appeared here, many combat members felt that it was a novelty, but they didn't dare to inquire about it.

As the most trusted guard platoon around Hu Biao, these combat members are all veterans, and they have been with Hu Biao for the longest time.These fighters have seen a lot of Hu Biao's mysteries and mysteries, and they are full of awe in their hearts.

However, compared to the past when Hu Biao only engaged in mortars and infantry artillery, the artillery produced by Hu Biao this time includes 75-caliber mountain artillery and 105-caliber field artillery.The former has eight doors, while the latter has four doors and a batch of corresponding shells.

Such a large number of artillery is indeed beyond everyone's expectations.Only Hu Biao knew that these artillery had emptied the accumulation of storage space.Each of these artillery pieces was accumulated by Hu Biao with great difficulty.

Compared with artillery, Hu Biao has always maintained this scale, and Hu Biao still stores a batch of artillery shells.The artillery has a long service life, but the number of shells that can be stored in the space is not much.If it wasn't for siege, Hu Biao really didn't want to use it easily.

In Hu Biao's vision, these artillery pieces were regarded as one of the trump cards he reserved for the task force.Fighting in the enemy's rear, Hu Biao couldn't guarantee when he would crash into the encirclement of the little devils.These cannons can also be used by surprise!

I didn't explain too much to the team members. The combat team members led by Hu Biao understood the operation of the mountain cannon and the field cannon.In addition, Hu Biao personally served as the artillery commander, and the combat members of the guard platoon were very excited to have the opportunity to return to the artillery.

"Zhuzi, inform Lao Qin that after a quarter of an hour, the shelling of the city gate defenders will begin. Use those heavy mortars and focus on shelling the fortifications of the little devils. I want the little devils in the city to completely Get nervous!"

"Yes, Captain!"

"Xiao Wu, pay attention to answering the telegrams from the reconnaissance team at any time. What we can achieve tonight depends on the bombardment parameters sent back by the reconnaissance team. The mountain artillery team is starting to prepare, and the field artillery team will not move temporarily. Wait for my order at any time! "

He told Zheng Jingwu who was accompanying him to pay attention to receiving the telegram, and Hu Biao, who had already given orders to Qin Tianyou, quietly watched Luzhou City not far away.The Japanese and puppet troops in charge of guarding the city wall are still patrolling back and forth on the top of the city.

After receiving the combat order from Hu Biao, Qin Tianyou also said directly: "The gunners are in position, ready to fire!"

The combat team members in charge of operating the mortar picked up the shells in the gun box one after another.Speaking of which, Hu Biao's daring to bombard Luzhou City today has a lot to do with his ambush of the supply convoy during the day, and the number of shells seized is a bit large.

Fortunately, the artillery captured by Hu Biao was all made by the Japanese army, and the captured shells can naturally be used in general.In this way, Hu Biao didn't have to worry about not having enough shells.As long as the artillery is not destroyed, he can blow up Luzhou city to pieces.

In the past, when little devils attacked cities with strong city defenses, most of them would use air strikes, bombing and shelling to destroy the defenders guarding these counties.So tonight, Hu Biao, let the little devil know what it's like to be bombed!

"put!"

With Qin Tianyou's order, more meteor showers rose into the sky again than last night.Looking at the meteors flying in the distance, the Japanese soldiers on patrol screamed again: "Enemy attack! Shelling! Take cover! Quick, hide!"

The defenders, who had already felt the shelling last night, knew that this kind of shelling seemed to be random, but it was just as dangerous.Not long after it got dark, the attackers who had blocked them for a day started shelling again.

Judging by the manner of the shelling, it was even more violent than last night.Could it be that the attackers outside the city are planning to attack the city tonight?

The Japanese army officers who were having a meeting at the garrison headquarters heard another explosion from the south of the city. The Japanese army commander immediately frowned and said, "Quick, send someone to the south of the city immediately to check the situation! Order the artillery squadron to prepare for a counterattack!"

"Boss, listen to the explosion. Tonight's shelling is bigger than last night. Could it be that the enemy is preparing to attack the city?"

"Impossible! Unless the enemy commander is crazy, they should know that it is impossible to attack the city we are defending with only this scale of shelling. I think this should be another harassment!"

All the officers expressed their own analysis, but the Japanese army commander still said with a serious expression: "No matter what the situation is, all ministries will continue to maintain vigilance tonight. Except for the troops on duty in the upper city, the other troops stay in the barracks and wait for orders at any time!"

"Hi!"

Mortars took the lead in the night battle to bombard Luzhou City. The puppet troops stationed in Luzhou City were worried, but they sighed speechlessly in their hearts: "Look at this, don't even think about resting tonight! Alas, how can this go on like this?" Yes!"

Being stuck in the city for a day, these puppet soldiers also felt that the atmosphere was too depressing.As the least-status people in the city, these puppet soldiers didn't like this dead atmosphere either.Because if they are a little careless, they will become the punching bag of the Japanese army.

On the other hand, look at the task force lurking outside the city, and some guerrilla backbones watching the battle.Looking at the defenders on the south wall of the city, covered by countless artillery fire, I naturally felt particularly relieved.The backbone of the guerrillas was even more shocked.

Many backbones said enviously: "Captain, can you tell Chief Hu that we have a few mortars? With mortars, it should be easier for us to deal with the little devils in the future. This artillery, listen It's fun to watch!"

"Do you really dare to think that this mortar is a big carrot that can be given away to anyone? Even if we want to get a mortar, it will not be our turn to use it in the end. The main force will not be used. Do you think we are guerrilla fighters? Can the team use it?"

As a soldier, who doesn't want the firepower of the troops to be strong.The problem is that mortars seem simple, but they still need to be operated by soldiers who understand artillery.In addition, the source of shells is also a problem.If the shells cannot be seized, the mortar is just a decoration!

After five rounds of bombardment, Qin Tianyou immediately ordered: "The first team starts to retreat! The second team, fire two more shells and retreat!"

Knowing that the little devil's artillery counterattacked quickly, in order to avoid casualties in the artillery unit, Qin Tianyou deliberately divided the artillery into two teams.The eight mortars in the small team had the same caliber, and they were also used by Xu Sandao last night.

The extra heavy mortars tonight were organized into the second team by Qin Tianyou, separated from the first team by a certain distance.In this way, the eight mortars of the first team withdrew first, and the heavy mortars fired two more shells to lure the Japanese army in the city to fire.
