Chapter 599 Contest, not at the same level
"As commanded..."
The deacon immediately stood up, took a few soldiers beside him, and ran to the mortar position behind.
He was originally a deputy artillery officer, and was transferred to Ji Chunsheng's side as chief deacon a year ago. Now there is a shortage of command staff, especially the artillery, and he happens to be the one filling the gap.
After arriving at the mortar position, he began to adjust the design angle, adjust the ruler, and prepare for the first round of shooting.
Speaking of the Guangxi Independent Battalion, they fired more than three rounds in total. In the fourth round, they only fired five shells. There was a general gun. After firing three shells, the mission was over.
These ten general cannons were so old that Song Menqing was very suspicious that if they continued to fire, these cannons might have a horrific event such as exploding their barrels.
The completion of the shooting meant that the deal was over. Song Menqing led his men back to the temporary camp of his reserve company. After carefully observing Highland No. 1, he put down his binoculars and said to Master Ye with great pride:
"Mr. Ye, the fortifications on Highland No. 1 have been destroyed by my artillery fire. Please let your people attack boldly again!"
Although the three rounds of shelling lasted only a short time, the areas covered by the shells should be basically deserted, so it was a good time to charge.
"Understood!" Master Ye replied very simply and respectfully.
He had witnessed with his own eyes the scene where Song Menqing used his own money to bribe the artillerymen and let his own people fire the artillery just now. The effect of the artillery fire was also very different. This made him look at Song Menqing with admiration and admiration.
rise.
After seeing Master Ye leave, Song Menqing turned to his deputy and said: "Send someone to notify the special agent company and ask them to take action in advance. From the side of Tiger Leaping Cliff, along the rear cliff, to the back of Gongji Ridge for a sneak attack, come and attack him.
Pincer attack!"
"Understood!" the deputy responded and left.
"Brothers, rush forward boldly. The defenders of Fengzhong Security Team have been killed by us. Master Hu has ordered that the first one to rush to the high ground will be rewarded with 100 yuan, and the top ten will be rewarded.
Fifty silver dollars!"
Master Ye held a six-wheel pistol in his hand and waved it vigorously while shouting at the top of his lungs.
But he only waved his arms and stood hunched over in the bushes at a height of one person, and did not move forward with the team.
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward. The gangsters believed it and rushed forward howling like crazy as if they had been given blood.
After watching the Tiger Gang members rushing towards each other with guns in hand, Master Ye pulled out the short pipe from his waist, turned his head and wanted to light up the cigarette and take a few puffs to relieve his stress.
"absurd!"
This scene happened to be caught by Song Menqing who was rushing over. He snatched the pipe from Master Ye's mouth, smashed it on the rock, broke it into two pieces, and said: "You
Don’t even look at where this is. If you don’t want to die, you’d better not smoke!”
Master Ye just took a puff and his craving for cigarettes was awakened. He hesitated for a moment and said angrily:
"Why, why did you smash my pipe?"
Song Menqing was furious after hearing this. He glanced at Master Ye sideways. He wanted to yell at him or slap him on the ear, but he held it back. After all, the other party was not his subordinate, and he was the one who had served him so far.
The person in the Tiger Gang who can help him the most.
As the saying goes: Don’t be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs!
He had no choice but to patiently say to Master Ye: "Mr. Ye, this place is only about three hundred meters away from the forward position. Do you think there are no living snipers among the defenders on those positions? Just lighting up a cigarette in the bushes is a living person.
target!"
After Song Menqing finished speaking, he deliberately joked: "I don't want anyone here to be my translator before the highland is captured, and I don't want to lose a friend in the world!"
There was a hint of friendship in this teasing, which made Master Ye not particularly embarrassed.
He looked at the Tiger Gang brothers who rushed over, and smiled proudly at Song Menqing, "Thank you for your kindness, Boss Song, when will your independent battalion take action?"
"My special agent company has already started operations at Tiger Leaping Cliff." Song Menqing informed in a low voice.
"That's great, let's just wait here for good news." Master Ye also started to smile at this time.
As for Song Menqing, he raised the old telescope very dedicatedly and observed the offensive and defensive situation ahead.
This group of gangsters had not dared to charge so boldly before, but after a few rounds of artillery shelling, Master Ye told everyone that all the enemies on the high ground had been killed, so they were so bold.
The bold steps became light. This time the charging bandits were very fast. They basically used several times the speed before to reach the entrance of the canyon in front of the high ground.
Fighting in the mountains of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi, the historical understanding of these bandits is that whoever has the cannon is the winner.
They did not dig trenches, build bunkers, or have a complete set of modern positional warfare concepts and methods to defend against artillery fire. They believed that as long as they were covered by artillery fire, the enemy would have already escaped, even if they were not dead.
The purpose of rushing up now is to make money, a hundred silver dollars. As long as you run fast and be the first to rush up to the loudest voice, that's it.
"Come on!"
"Hurry up..."
The gangsters howled loudly.
Now is the time to enjoy the fruits of the harvest. Everyone has nothing to worry about. All you need to do is let go and run as hard as you can!
"The No. 1 gun is ready!"
"The second gun is ready!"
"..."
"Cannon No. 12 is ready!"
After receiving the new order from Chief of Staff Ji, we first bombarded the charging bandits to knock down their arrogance.
The deacon temporarily took over the command of the mortar platoon. Now each gun position has readjusted its muzzle elevation and is ready to fire at any time.
"put…"
Following the deacon's order, the mortars opened fire.
"Shh...boom..."
"Shush...boom..."
"..."
With a sharp sound of breaking through the air, the shell exploded in the bandit's charging team.
At the same time, the bald man also gave the order to fire the machine rifle.
"Bang bang..."
"Ta da...ta da da..."
"..."
The violent sound of gunfire rang out almost at the same time, resounding through the sky in an instant, and the crossfire was directed at the bandits who rushed into the front line of the valley, carrying out a merciless massacre.
The bandits who charged intensively in front of the forward position fell in pieces like wheat, with their broken limbs and broken arms flying all over the sky, and their flesh and blood flying everywhere.
The bandits who were not shot were scurrying around, crying and howling, and formed a chaotic mess, but there was a way to survive in the open space.
In the distant Second Artillery Battalion, a group of gunners were smoking cigarettes, waiting for the next order.
They think that location is a safe area where they can smoke cigarettes and brag about women without restraint!
As for moving artillery positions, the bandits have no concept at all.
Besides, the artillery from the defenders, and it is understood that a large number of large-caliber artillery are concentrated in the Songjiafang Port Military Camp, how could they be dragged to Gongjiling.
