However, what Kazumi Morita never expected was that the period of silence just now did not mean that the national army's combat plan had failed.
This is the calm before the storm, nothing more.
Just when Morita Kazumi was hiding behind the bunker, playing with the Rising Sun Flag in his hand and still playing the song "Sakura Blossom Ballad", a series of screaming shells roared towards his position. .
"Boom~~Boom!!!"
"Boom~~Boom!!!"
"Boom~~Boom!!!"
The dirt from the explosion flew up into the sky, and then scattered on the top of Morita Kazumi's head. He lay down almost subconsciously, and did not forget to curse: "Bagaya road!"
However, things are not subject to human will.
Even if Morita Kazumi cursed again, it would not be able to stop the shells raining down.
Don't forget, this time it was not only the twelve cannons of the artillery battalion of the first regiment directly under the third theater that fired, but also the artillery battalion of the 71st Army. In total, there were twenty-four Qiwu mountain cannons. Got it!
In order to achieve the offensive effect, Zhang Tianhai specially asked Zhao Chengge to negotiate with the artillery of the military artillery battalion. What he wanted was to concentrate all the firepower and launch a fierce bombardment on the Japanese front-line positions to cover the main attack of the first regiment!
Taking advantage of the fierce artillery firepower to suppress the most powerful firepower, the small artillery company of the troops directly under the first regiment headquarters of the third theater was already setting up the mount of the Soloton machine gun.
At the same time, Li Chunfei's infantry battalion had also begun to move forward, with the infantry in front and the machine gun company behind. The firepower reinforcement squad of each company also began to move forward with the infantry company. In addition, following them forward was the mortar company directly under the regiment headquarters.
I saw the officers and soldiers of these mortar companies carrying mortars and artillery shells, walking very quickly, not falling behind the infantry troops at all.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhang Tianhai was still full of confidence - as long as the Japanese artillery fire did not launch a strong suppression on their frontline troops, then with this kind of offensive, it would not take long for people and villages to be captured. Down!
With such strong firepower, if it cannot defeat the enemy, it only shows that there is a problem with the military quality of the Zhiyi Regiment.
Watching this scene through the telescope, Zhang Tianhai's eyes revealed infinite expectations. He was eager to use strong firepower to destroy the enemy's positions and break through the enemy's defense line!
The strength of the regiment must be seen by the entire army!
"Your Excellency, Captain, Your Excellency, Captain! The enemy has launched an attack!!" A Japanese soldier ran to the side of Morita Kazumi and reported.
"Cunning China Army! Baga! Inform the troops and go into battle immediately!" As he said that, Kazumi Morita took out the tortoise shell from his waist, very much like the one in the movie.
"Hai!!" The Japanese soldier responded in a deep voice, and then ran to give the captain's order.
In fact, there is no need for Morita Kazumi to say that these Japanese soldiers are already ready to fight the national army.
After all, they are veterans of the Japanese standing divisions, and they are veterans with rich combat experience!
Soon, Japanese soldiers wearing green helmets began to shoot. Even if they were killed by artillery shells, they still had to raise their heads and shoot. They had to hold this line of defense!
Wang Qing is an ordinary soldier who belongs to the 1st Battalion, 3rd Company, 2nd Platoon and 2nd Squad of the 1st Regiment directly under the 3rd War Zone. As an ordinary infantryman, he has the task of charging forward no matter what.
What's more, the little devil opposite was the enemy who destroyed their home. As a native of Lanling, he must use his hands to restore the invaded home.
It was this group of evil invaders opposite that made them homeless; it was this group of evil invaders opposite that made them homeless; it was this group of evil invaders opposite that made them lose their brothers, sisters, and even parents.
They are inseparable from the evil invaders opposite them. Either you die or I die!
Before going to the battlefield, the battalion commander had already mobilized them. The speech style of the battalion commander Li Chunfei was probably similar to that of the regiment leader Zhang Tianhai. After all, the battalion commander was also brought up by the regiment commander.
"We came here to fight to the death with the little devils. They destroyed our homes, killed our brothers and sisters, and made all of us here homeless. For us to have a better life in the future, for our nation, we can Let it continue, we, as soldiers! It is our fate to return to our bodies wrapped in horse leather. Today, we live and die together and fight to the death with the Japanese army!!!"
Scenes flashed through his mind, and Wang Qing clenched the steel gun tighter.
"Boo~~Pfft!!"
While Wang Qing was running, his legs suddenly went numb, and his right leg almost lost strength. The inertia made his body lean forward heavily, and then he fell heavily to the ground. It turned out to be a 6.5 mm caliber bullet. Penetrated his thigh!
There are many other National Army soldiers who suffered the same fate as Wang Qing, but they may not be as lucky as Wang Qing.
The offensive of the regiment stalled, but the next moment, the Japanese suppression failed. In addition to the rumbling shells, the six Solotong machine guns of the small artillery company had already opened fire.
Countless small artillery shells with a caliber of 20 mm were fired towards the Japanese positions, and the firepower was very fierce. At the same time, the mortar company and the first battalion machine gun company directly under the regiment headquarters had been set up.
Machine guns, mortars, heavy machine guns, and all kinds of shells and bullets from the Qiwu Mountain Cannon were pouring down crazily towards the Japanese army's forward position. The entire Japanese army's forward position had become a sea of fire!
Smoke and dust gradually flooded the entire position.
Zhang Tianhai was quietly waiting for the result on the opposite side. According to the agreed artillery bombing time, it was only a short twenty minutes.
Twenty minutes was enough time for a regiment of troops to set up their frontline firepower.
Seeing that the frontline troops were slowly approaching the Japanese frontline, Zhang Tianhai looked at his watch. It had been fifteen minutes since the bombardment began.
This is something that is both joyful and a bit distressing.
I was happy because the training of the Zhiyi Regiment was very effective, but I was distressed because of the squandering of artillery shells. After all, if these artillery shells were used up, it would not be easy to replenish them.
No wonder Zhang Tianhai felt distressed.
However, there is not much time left for the artillery bombardment. Next, it depends on the performance of the 1st and 4th Battalions. If they can successfully capture Renhe and Zhuang, then everything will be worth it, but if they cannot capture the enemy in time, Even after paying a heavy price of casualties, they still could not win.
That shows that the entire combat plan is a failure. This is the most distressing point. Zhang Tianhai sees this clearly than anyone else.
After preparing for so long, it’s finally time to take the exam. Whether you can pass or not depends on this time.
In this battle, Zhang Tianhai was indeed distressed by the shells.
But in Kazumi Morita's view, this battle was definitely the most difficult battle he fought after entering the Chinese battlefield - these Chinese troops actually launched the most violent artillery bombardment after their artillery ceased fire, and the artillery fire was intensive and intense. Compared with before, it is only stronger but not weaker.
This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that these Chinese troops actually exerted more powerful combat effectiveness after approaching them, and their firepower intensity was only stronger than that of the previous Chinese troops.
This is definitely the most elite among the Chinese army!
Because before this, Kazumi Morita had never encountered a Chinese army with such strong firepower!
Especially after the machine guns on the opposite side opened fire, the situation became even more serious - because the shells of these machine guns could easily penetrate the bunkers!

PS: The first update is here!
Originally, I wanted to add an update to the book friend _Happy Boy_ who rewarded me with 10,000 starting coins. Unfortunately, the handicapped party was too slow to code and it was too late.
If there are three updates tonight, the third update will be the extra update. . .
If you can't, just owe it...
