Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

Yunmao Mountain.

The artillery regiment of the 9th Division is indeed stationed here.

In order to avoid the reconnaissance planes of the 1st Independent Division, they had to locate the artillery wing in this place.

However, the disadvantage is that the marching speed is too slow.

Yunmao Mountain is surrounded by mountains and forests. It is winter and it is also bare.

However, the Japanese are still relatively smart.

Each cannon has been covered with branches, weeds, etc.

It was impossible for the aircraft of the First Independent Division to see such a small thing when they came to conduct reconnaissance.

In addition, there are no villages around, so the Japs from the Artillery Regiment are even better able to disguise themselves...

The commander of the Artillery Regiment is named Murakami Murayama, a native of Kyoto...

He participated in many battles with the Ninth Division, including the battles of Niangziguan and Xinkou.

His artillery wing also played a big role.

During the Battle of Xinkou, the artillery regiment caused a great obstacle to the Shanxi-Sui Army.

However, for Murakami Murayama, who only heard of the name of the Independent First Division but had never fought with it, he was really dismissive...

"Your Excellency, Captain...The Yamashita Brigade is right next to us...They asked us to move to another place to guard them..."

The captain of the artillery regiment's mountain artillery brigade said while eating a can.

It was already noon, and these Japs were having their meal.

"Change the place? Do they think anyone in our artillery regiment can command it?"

"Only the division commander of the Ninth Division can order us! He is just a brigade commander, not a division commander!"

Murakami Murayama said angrily.

A small brigade commander is just a major general, and he is also a colonel!

What's more, if you want to change places again, what if you encounter bombers from the First Independent Division...

If the artillery regiment is discovered, it will definitely die without a burial!

Murakami Murayama didn't want to take this risk.

"But... Your Excellency Colonel, General Yamashita personally sent a telegram..."

The captain of the mountain artillery brigade said hesitantly.

"Yamashita? A major general in the army. If you give me some more time, I will be a major general too! Don't worry about him. Let Yamashita let me know if anything happens..."

Murakami Murayama said it very forcefully. It was not like he had never seen a major general before.

So how did the tradition of the Japanese superiors and subordinates come about?

This is something engraved in their bones and cannot be changed in a short time.

"Hi! Mr. Colonel..."

"A small independent division actually frightened this mountain into this state. Didn't it mean that an infantry regiment was lost!"

"What's the big deal! I can only say that these idiots are simply insulting our people from the Japanese Empire!"

"If we encounter the troops of the First Independent Division, with our dozens of cannons, we will definitely defeat them!"

"Just a bunch of untouchables!"

Murakami Murayama said enthusiastically.

However, he obviously forgot that the First Independent Division also has hundreds of cannons. Even if they engage in artillery bombardment, their artillery regiment will definitely not be able to defeat it...

There are less than 20 heavy artillery pieces. It is simply wishful thinking to fight with the hundreds of heavy artillery pieces of the Independent Division!

"That's for sure, Your Majesty Colonel, our artillery regiment, under your leadership, will definitely make the Ninth Division invincible!"

"Your rank of major general is just around the corner!"

The captain of the mountain artillery brigade said with a flattering look.

"Xinxi...your words are more pleasant...tell all the soldiers not to let down their guard..."

"It's very unsafe now. One of our infantry regiments has been killed. A big battle is very likely to happen next!"

"Everyone needs to cheer up!"

"We must not let people from the First Independent Division discover our place!"

Murakami Murayama told him that although it was true that he looked down on the First Independent Division, as a captain of the artillery regiment, it is also a matter of course to protect his soldiers and all the artillery...

"Hi! Mr. Colonel!"

What they didn't expect was that it was on the other side of Yunmao Mountain.

The fourth regiment leader had already led his men to quietly come up.

"Captain, we have already investigated everything... there are about 1300 Japs..."

"A mountain artillery brigade, a field artillery brigade, a heavy artillery brigade, several infantry squadrons..."

A battalion commander said.

Zhou Liming, the commander of the fourth regiment, looked at a place in the distance with a telescope.

There is still smoke rising there...

"It seems like these little devils don't take us seriously... They dare to light a fire and cook now..."

"It seems we need to give them some color..."

Fourth regiment commander Zhou Liming then looked at the artillery soldiers in the rear.

This time, the Fourth Regiment did not bring many heavy artillery.

Mainly in the deep mountains and old forests, these heavy artillery are still not easy to operate.

Therefore, the Fourth Regiment specially brought 60 60mm mortars....

81 30mm mortars......

90 15mm mortars and 120 20mm mortars!

There are also 12 Type infantry guns...

In total, there are 125 mortars with a caliber of 60mm or above.

There are also 12 70mm-caliber Type infantry guns...

To be honest, this firepower can defeat the group of little devils in front of me in close combat!

In addition, the Fourth Regiment is still a Soviet weapons regiment, and they are also the only unit among the Four Brigades that all use SVT semi-automatic rifles.

There is also a Bobosha submachine gun. There are 10 people in a class, at least 7 people must have it!

There are more than 2500 troops in the regiment, and the number of Bobosha submachine guns is as high as 2000!

Coupled with various DP light machine guns and the improved version of the MG42 general machine gun, the firepower is simply not too strong.

If we engage in street fighting, the Fourth Regiment can, to be honest, sweep through every Japs unit in Jin Province....

Including Kazuki Yamamoto's special forces team.

This is one of the reasons why Zhou Weiguo sent men from the Fourth Regiment to attack the Japanese artillery regiment.

The strength is there...

"Order, one battalion attacks the Japanese mountain artillery brigade..."

"The second battalion attacked the Japanese field artillery brigade..."

"The third battalion is responsible for attacking the headquarters of a Japanese artillery regiment..."

"Get ready for all mortars and Type 92 infantry artillery. They will all be launched in ten minutes!"

"This battle must be fought quickly and must not be delayed!"

"The Japanese cannons can protect as many guns as they can, and those are the trophies of our Independent Division..."

.......

Brothers, is this fierce?
