Chapter 17 Qian Bojun is confused



The artillery of the Moon Army is quite capable, but do they have sufficient training and long-term actual combat experience?

In combat, they can quickly counterattack and quickly destroy exposed fire points.

Now four rapid-fire cannons and four infantry cannons are set up in different positions to directly launch shelling.

The eight artillery pieces were fired directly without any test firing.

The captain of the rapid-fire artillery squadron and the two second lieutenants of the artillery squad raised their binoculars to observe.

Armor-piercing explosive bombs and grenades landed on the left position one after another, where Qian Bojun's 1st Battalion was.

The two exposed Shan orogenic cannons have become the focus of rapid-fire artillery strikes.

An armor-piercing explosive shell penetrated directly and fell into a Shanxi orogenic cannon.

Along with the explosion, several artillerymen shouted in pain.

Countless shrapnel spread in all directions, and the shrapnel struck the Jin orogenic cannon and made a sound.

Not long after, a grenade landed there again, and the mountain cannon was instantly blown over.

All ten artillerymen were killed and no one survived.

Another Shanxi orogenic gun rushed to move, but it was also bombarded, its breech block was destroyed, and it completely lost its combat capability.

Fortunately, the infantry quickly assisted in the transfer and prevented the mountain cannon from being destroyed.

The Lunar Army's four rapid-fire guns and four infantry guns opened fire one after another.

Armor-piercing explosive shells, grenades, shrapnel and other artillery shells accurately hit the left position one after another, exposing the firepower point.

In less than ten minutes, the left position came under heavy shelling.

Of the two exposed mountain guns of the Second Company of the Artillery Battalion, one was completely destroyed and the other was damaged and could no longer fire.

On the first battalion's side, two heavy machine guns and six light machine guns were directly destroyed.

At the same time, they suffered dozens of casualties, and the entire left position was in panic.

After Qian Bojun, Zhang Furun, and Liang Guoping received the report, they stood there with astonishment on their faces.

The Hengshan Brigade's four infantry squadrons and one machine gun squadron launched an aggressive attack east of the artillery cover.

Nearly a thousand Japs came out in full force and quickly advanced towards the left position.

Qian Bojun panicked and ordered his troops to fight. At the same time, he rushed to Liang Guoping for help, hoping that artillery could support the battle.

However, the Second Company of the Artillery Battalion only had two mountain artillery pieces left to continue fighting, and Liang Guoping did not dare to act rashly.

After all, if the two mountain cannons were damaged again, then he, the battalion commander, would definitely be done with it.

"Then...then what the hell is going on? Why did the little devils gather so many artillery pieces to launch a fierce attack?"

"Why is there nothing going on on the right side? If he had known it, he wouldn't have let the artillery battalion fire."

"That idiot Liang Guoping, please don't fire. Maybe the little Japs are not very good at attacking their first battalion position."

Qian Bojun returned to the headquarters of his first battalion and cursed directly.

Now seeing a large number of little devils attacking, can Qian Bojun panic?

"It's over. It's over that time. Two light machine guns were knocked out, but two mountain cannons were destroyed."

"Can Cannon be very serious now? If he is investigated, he will definitely be held responsible."

"Is Chen Ziyun really cunning? If I had known, he wouldn't have fired."

"Second company commander, please send the order to go east. There are two mountain cannons left in the east. We don't want to start bombardment for the time being."

At the artillery position, Liang Guoping's face was even more nervous, and he said uneasily.

Can the artillery bombardment by the Moon Army disrupt Qian Bojun and Liang Guoping's positions?

On the right side of the position, Second Battalion Commander Wu Ziqiang saw the situation at the First Battalion position, and he couldn't help but take a breath of air.

"It's really very uncertain. If there is a continuous artillery bombardment at that time, the little devil will attack there violently."

"Company Commander Chen was too right not to fire artillery. The First Battalion and the Second Artillery Battalion simply suffered the consequences."

"You're just a probing attack, but why do you want to go into such a big fight?"

"Company Commander Chen is worthy of having seen big scenes, so I can't say whether Keli is worthy of it."

Wu Ziqiang murmured to himself, now he admires Chen Ziyun even more.

The Hengshan Brigade stormed the left position, and the main force came out in full force.

Four mountain guns and four infantry guns opened fire one after another to provide cover.

Various artillery shells were fired continuously, and a battalion of troops was suppressed to death, with almost no ability to counterattack.

Chen Ziyun naturally had no time to pay attention to the left position at this time. He maintained contact with the artillery observation post.

Jing Zai's brigade also began to advance the attack at this time, but they did not have much artillery support, so they were very cautious.

Three infantry squadrons and more than 500 Chinese troops advanced alternately. As for the two infantry cannons directly under the battalion, they were still concealed and did not fire.

Because the Jaap troops were too scattered, Chen Ziyun did not launch an artillery attack.

In addition, in order to avoid conflicts, Chen Ziyun quickly contacted the regiment headquarters and requested the right to fire freely.

At that time, it was difficult for the infantry commanders, let alone the Jinsui Army and the Central Army, to understand artillery.

Often during combat, artillery is under the command of the infantry, but those infantry commanders do not know artillery tactics.

They will keep begging for artillery fire, which will lead to the artillery being exposed in advance and suffering a devastating blow.

"Ding dong, the system releases a task!"

"Severe damage to the Third Regiment!"

"The third regiment has a full strength of 3,800 men, and the current strength is 3,300 men."

"In this defensive battle of the 358th Regiment, more than 1,500 people of the Third Regiment were killed or injured, which means that the Third Regiment was severely damaged."

At that moment, the mechanical sound of the system appeared in Chen Ziyun's mind.

Chen Ziyun couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard such a mission.

Preliminary estimates now indicate that the 358th Regiment suffered at least a hundred casualties, while the Moon Army's casualties were only around twenty at most.

If we were to attack the east at that level, if we were to kill and injure 1,500 Yuan troops, the 358th Regiment would probably be wiped out!

That system task was obviously more difficult than the previous tasks.

"Company commander, the regiment headquarters called back and the regiment approved their request."

"The regiment headquarters has contacted the second and third battalions. Their first company can launch artillery attacks on their own to support their operations."

Chen Ziyun looked sad after receiving the system task, but at that time, the monitor of the communications class came over to make a report.

Chen Ziyun nodded and came to the artillery combat map.

There are four mountain guns in one battery, counting the fifty rounds of grenades transported back from the large baggage team.

At this time they have twenty armor-piercing grenades and one hundred and thirty grenades!

The one hundred and fifty rounds of artillery shells must be used properly to ensure that they can provide strong support for the battle.

"Regiment 358, we don't want to disappoint him."

"Otherwise, don't blame him for taking Yi Lianrun with him."

Chen Ziyun looked at the map and murmured to himself.

The fierce fighting continued on the front line, and near the battlefield, a new regiment had already arrived there under the command of Lao Li.

Li Yunlong raised his telescope to observe the combat situation, grinning from time to time, showing his big yellow teeth, and smiled silly.
