The Japanese army's four or five 75mm field guns continued to fire in the direction of Jiqi Slope in an attempt to suppress the Sichuan Army's artillery fire.
The Takeuchi Mountains got what they wanted. In order to prevent his precious artillery from suffering casualties, Liao Mingyu had them withdraw from their positions early.
Because the range of the 120 mortar and 92 infantry gun is limited, even if they are placed at the forefront of the position, they cannot reach the Japanese artillery position. The Japanese 75 field gun has a maximum shooting range of 10 kilometers.
Liao Mingyu specifically asked the soldiers to dig deep trenches and build the trenches deep enough. The horizontal space of the individual anti-artillery bunker is also very large, and it is no problem to hide two people in it at the same time.
Such trench fortifications can not only prevent precise strikes from artillery shells, but also effectively disrupt the explosive impact and lethality of high-explosive artillery shells. The soldiers were hiding in the bunker, and a few 75mm field guns basically posed no threat.
"Boom...boom!" The soil blown up by the shell was still stirring above the head. However, the soldiers hiding in the individual bunkers were particularly leisurely.
"Hey, you bastard, Xiao Dongyang's cannon ball is like a hall guest, soft, snake butt, don't you think so?"
Bula held the gun and squatted in the individual gun-proof bunker. He took out the grenade and poked the butt of the snake next to him...
"Go away, I told you not to play with this stuff. You're going to get into trouble sooner or later!" Snake Butt had a look of disgust on his face and knocked his hand away unhappily. This idiot spends all day gesticulating with a grenade.
"Where's the group? Why didn't you see him coming down?" Meng Fan, who was not far away, looked around and didn't seem to see Liao Mingyu's figure.
"He and Krupp are still at the top of the mountain. They said they wanted to kill Xiaodongyang's foreign cannons." Bu La patted the dirt on his head and said casually.
…
On the Japanese army's position, while the Sichuan regiment ceased fire, the little Japanese were trying their best to rescue the wounded soldiers and put out the fire. At the same time, the deployment of front-line positions was increased to prevent the Chinese on the other side from crossing the river to attack.
At this time, Liao Mingyu, along with several veteran artillerymen such as Krupp and Li Liansheng, were lying on the ridgeline observing the enemy's artillery positions with binoculars.
The shooting angle of the howitzer is relatively large and the trajectory is relatively curved. The four 105 howitzers are arranged on a gentle slope not far from the ridge line.
The Japanese 75mm field artillery could not hit the reverse slope at all, but they could fire on the opposite side without any scruples. It's just that firing artillery here tests the artillery skills.
Liao Mingyu first showed weakness to the enemy and ordered all artillery to stop firing, pretending to be suppressed by Japanese artillery fire. The purpose was to induce the Japanese artillery to fire continuously to expose its position and create an opportunity for Krupp to defeat the enemy with one blow.
"How about, can you calculate their location?"
Next to him, Krupp held a high-power monocular telescope and closely observed the opponent's artillery position. From time to time, he took out the dial and used formulas to calculate the shooting elements on the paper.
Even though this fat guy is stupid, big, and thick, he only eats and sleeps all day, but as long as he is allowed to have sex, he can quickly get into the state, giving people a very reliable feeling.
Not convinced, Li Liansheng and others could only stare blankly at this kind of professional calculation of ballistic position.
"Well, that's almost it."
Krupp raised his head and checked the distance across the river again and the data recorded in his hand. He nodded and looked at Liao Mingyu with an affirmative look on his face: "Commander, why don't you try firing two cannons?"
"Why are you looking at me? Go and fight."
"okay!"
After speaking, Krupp hurriedly ran to the artillery position not far behind him, and quickly asked the artillerymen to adjust the shooting angle at the howitzer.
"The target distance is about 8600 meters, direction 1-18, height and low angle +3, 2 test shots, reload! Prepare...fire!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The two 105 howitzers roared, and the shells flew in the direction of the intended target at extremely high speeds.
"Captain, there is no impact point at this position. I don't know if it was hit or not."
Li Liansheng used a telescope to carefully observe the direction of the Japanese artillery on the other side. Because the distance was too far, he couldn't see clearly, so he only knew a general direction.
Liao Mingyu was silent for a while and suddenly said: "The Japanese artillery fire has stopped! They should be changing positions. The shooting angle is correct, haha. This fat guy is really not bad."
"Go and tell Krupp to continue shooting at this angle. Bite him..."
When Liao Mingyu was about to tell Li Liansheng to convey the order, Krupp, a tough guy, ran over panting. Everyone looked at him in confusion, wondering what he was doing running up at this time.
"Captain, now that you've fired two shots, how about two more shots?"
At this time, Krupp stared blankly at Liao Mingyu. The shelling just now lasted for 10 minutes. How could it be satisfying? Having sex was as important as eating. At this moment, he wanted to know if he could continue to have sex.
"Hey, damn you...how can you be so obedient? I'll shoot you twice when I ask you to do it? You're so stubborn!"
"You came up here and did it? Oh my god...why are you so naughty?" Li Liansheng was also very angry at his coquettish behavior.
Liao Mingyu slapped him on the head and cursed angrily: "Go back and continue to attack. The artillerymen who haven't killed the little devil are not allowed to eat today!"
The sound of shelling echoed through the sky...
At the same time... on the anti-Yu division position on the bank of the Nu River.
Yu Xiaoqing stood at his forward position, his posture upright, and the military green coat on his body fluttered in the wind.
"It's not over yet..."
He had been watching here for a long time with his binoculars. Liao Mingyu suddenly got wind of something and started bombarding the west bank early in the morning. Now they have stirred up a hornet's nest. Not to be outdone, the little devils on the West Bank pulled out their artillery to fight back. The two waves of people were like red-eyed children fighting. You punch me and I sleep, and you have to decide who wins or loses.
"I don't know what that guy is doing garrisoning on the Flag Festival Slope. It's not even a second-line position. There's no point in arranging troops there."
Yu Xiaoqing said to himself. This Liao Mingyu, I really can't figure out what he is going to do. There is also the Takeuchi Mountains on the other side. They did not attack during this period. They just huddled at Nantianmen and did not know what conspiracy they were planning. There is a hint of weirdness in all of this.
"Master, there was a chaos on the Japs' position just now. In fact... we can also launch a wave of attacks. No matter what, it's good to test it out..."
Zhang Lixian was standing next to him, and he felt a little suspicious. Unfortunately, the master would not listen to him at all, so maybe he had plans to listen.
"Hmph! It's not that simple. Have you forgotten? The intelligence from the past two days shows that the Japanese army has mobilized no less than one regiment of troops from various ministries and has gathered at Nantianmen. The strength of the Takeuchi regiment is not what it seems at all. Simple."
Yu Xiaoqing shook his head. How could he be willing to use his soldiers to explore the grass without being completely sure?
Glancing at Jiqipo not far away, he frowned and said slowly: "It seems that I have to go and meet Commander Liao tomorrow to see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd."
"Boom...boom...boom..."
The Sichuan Corps and the Takeuchi Regiment are separated by the Nu River. You and I are constantly bombarding the enemy with our own artillery.
The Japanese artillerymen fought very hard. From time to time, a few artillery shells would fall on their artillery positions, killing and wounding many soldiers. They had just moved their positions, and before they had fired more than a dozen rounds, they were bitten by the opponent again. It seems there is a master on the other side!
The Japanese artillery commander was depressed. The 75 field artillery they had had no advantage at all in terms of range and power. The key was that the opponent was still hidden on the reverse slope and could not be hit at all. In this short time, two 75mm field guns have been blown up by artillery shells.
The sound of artillery fire continued throughout the morning, and finally ended with the Japanese surrender.
Staying at the Japanese military headquarters in Mount Takeuchi, with a dark clouded face as if his parents had died, he was listening to the chief of staff report on the damage to the troops in the morning.
"Reporting to the commander, after the battle in the morning, 386 of our soldiers were shattered and 172 were injured. The main casualties came from the enemy's incendiary bombs and the fire..."
"Another...two Type 97 tanks were damaged, and 36 people and two 75mm field guns were killed on the artillery side..."
"bump!"
The water glass on the table was thrown to the ground by Takeuchi, causing the chief of staff to take two steps back in fright.
"When did our warriors of the Japanese Empire become so vulnerable!?"
"Hey!"
Takeuchi Renshan was so angry that his face turned red. This had happened twice already. Both times he had suffered a loss in front of this mysterious Chinese army, which made this top student at the Imperial Army University extremely resentful.
He tried to calm himself down and kept telling himself that a real commander cannot be so impulsive.
I sorted out my fluctuating emotions. Takeuchi stood up, ignoring the chief of staff who was still standing there like a light pole, and walked out of the headquarters alone.
He took a deep breath and looked at the troops on the hillside across the river with a gloomy face. The mountain peak that was not very eye-catching at first was now like a scourge in his mind.
"Haha, mysterious Chinese officer, don't worry, the battle between you and me has just begun..."
