Since we can't charge forward, we will stop charging and use heavy artillery to cover the entire Anjiang County. Regarding the counterattack of the People's Army, Okamura Neiji also had his own thoughts in his heart.

In his opinion, the People's Army has developed to the present in too short a time. Even if its weapons and equipment can keep up, it certainly does not have that many artillery shells in stock.

In normal battles, the People's Army may not lack artillery shells, but for a decisive battle like today, Okamura Neiji felt that the People's Army must not have prepared many artillery shells.

On the other hand, I have been fully prepared for a long time. Not only did I take out all my inventory in North China, I even specially allocated some weapons and ammunition from the mainland.

Therefore, Okamura Neiji believes that despite the current momentum of the People's Army, it is just a bluster.

Once the People's Army's ammunition is exhausted, it will be time for them to perform. Indeed, from a normal person's perspective.

There is nothing wrong with his idea, but the biggest problem is that they don't know Su Yu at all.

So far, the entire People's Army has more than 200,000 rockets on hand, even if it keeps firing these rockets.

That was enough to hold on until the other four brigades arrived at their predetermined positions, thus forming a counter-encirclement.

Not to mention the m2/101 howitzer shells. The number of these shells is not as much as the more than 200,000 rocket rounds.

However, the number of m2/101 howitzer shells cannot be underestimated, with tens of thousands of shells.

To put it bluntly, with such a large inventory, the People's Army would not stop shelling the Japs even if they were all deployed.

That can last for a long time, so it can be seen that Okamura Neji's little plan is destined to fail.

Okamura Neiji didn't know about all this. His idea was very simple, that is, he wanted to drag out the People's Army's artillery shells, and then they would launch a general attack.

In this case, the difficulty will be much smaller, and the losses will also be much less.

Su Yu wanted to see this behavior of Okamura Neiji. He was afraid that Okamura Neiji would charge forward and press all the troops up.

If this is the case, the losses of the People's Army will be much higher. On the other hand, like now, when the two sides are shelling each other.

Although it will also cause some losses to the People's Army, at least the losses will be much less than those caused by a direct charge by the Japs.

The more important reason was that Su Yu needed to delay. He had to buy time for the other four divisions.

............

In this way, with both sides having their own little calculations, they carried out round after round of bombardment.

As they fought like this, several division commanders in other places heard the sound.

"Commander, this sound sounds like the sound of heavy artillery fire from the Japs. The Japs have spent a lot of money this time. The sound of artillery has not stopped."

One of the soldiers walked up to his division commander with a sigh on his face and said, they are all very familiar with the sound of artillery of their People's Army.

So when they heard the strange sound of artillery, they immediately thought it was from the Japs.

Little did they know that among the sounds of artillery, there were Katyusha rocket launchers that belonged to the People's Army, but none of these soldiers had ever seen this killer weapon.

It can only be said that Su Yu hid them so well. Except for the top brass of the People's Army, the other soldiers didn't even know that their own People's Army had Katyusha rocket launchers.

When the division commander heard the sound of cannons, his face instantly became very heavy. Judging from the sound of cannons that lasted for more than half an hour.

The offensive power of the Little Japs is not weak. Under such circumstances, the pressure on the First Division and the Sixth Division responsible for blocking the Little Japs will inevitably be very great.

Thinking of this, the division commander said solemnly to the soldiers beside him.

"Tell the brothers to speed up. The soldiers of the First Division and the Sixth Division are buying us time with their lives. We must not let them down."

"Go at full speed. As long as you can't run to death, then run to death. Tell them to run for me. If anyone lingers again, don't blame me for killing him."

"Copy that! Master."

You must know that each of their four divisions has an average of more than 300 military trucks. Under such circumstances.

All the heavy weapons when they were marching were placed on the trucks, so the soldiers almost all went into battle lightly.

If under such circumstances, you still can't run and dawdle as usual, then the teacher will no longer be merciful.

No matter how critical the situation is now, the defenders in Anjiang County are trying their best to buy them time, so why don't they start running?

At the same time, this situation was also happening in several other divisions. Under the orders of the division commander, the marching speed of these divisions further accelerated.
