For a moment, artillery fire suddenly flew on the position.

Caught off guard, although the Air Force had hidden well at Liu Lang's request and not many were exposed, many people were still hit by dense bullets and flying shrapnel, and fell into the trenches with screams. Several light machine guns that were still spitting out flames were also filled with smoke and violent explosions.

The gunshots of shooting downwards on the position suddenly became sparse.

Seeing that the firepower of the National Salvation Army was suppressed, the remaining Black Hawk Army, which was crawling on the ground in front of the position, was ready to move again. While organizing people to drag their wounded soldiers to some natural bunkers such as earthblocks, some Black Hawk Army actually began to wave their engineer shovels and desperately dig up field individual bunkers on the position.

Judging from their appearance, they not only did not have the intention to retreat, but they also planned to hold on to wait until their reinforcements arrived before attacking. Just from this fighting will, the Fourth Division is much stronger than the cowardly slandered in the unofficial history.

"Order them to continue to suppress firepower while ensuring their own safety. The two wing positions should not let the Black Hawk Army approach 200 meters at any cost." Liu Lang looked at the battlefield 700 meters away, his face remained unchanged, and he continued to order.

As a result, the gunfire on both wings of the No. 1 position suddenly became fierce, and the Black Hawk Army's offensive in the fierce attack on both wings was also embarrassed. However, the gunfire on the front position was no longer as fierce as before, and several light machine guns were also suppressed by grenade launchers and infantry artillery so that they dared not show their heads.

"Brothers, I'll hide and beat me before I'll bury my head lowered." The battalion commander of the Third Battalion stared at his blood-covered eyes and arched his body through the trenches, and his heart dripped with blood and roared and told his soldiers under his command.

How could he not feel distressed? Although he killed at least thirty Black Hawk Empires in an offensive just now, his third battalion also suffered a considerable loss.

In the crazy revenge of the Black Hawk Army just now, two light machine guns that were eager to make contributions were directly hit by the grenade of the grenade. While the shooter's deputy shooter was killed by the bomb, the light machine gun was also distorted and turned into a ball of scrap iron. If the other two machine guns had not been avoided quickly, the third battalion would have only rifles left. Anyway, the last two light machine guns of the third battalion would not have been taken out until the last moment.

The casualties were also considered heavy. In this moment, at least a dozen people were swept by heavy machine gun bullets. The consequences of being swept by 7.7MM caliber bullets of Type 92 heavy machine guns were basically death in this era of lack of medical treatment and medicine. There were also seventeen or eighteen soldiers injured by flying grenades and infantry shells. In the first wave of offensives of the Black Hawk Army alone, he almost lost one platoon of troops under his command, and the casualties were even heavier than those of the Black Hawk Army.

Seeing this situation on the battlefield, the black hawk infantry captain in the distance finally eased greatly, "Okay, the kingdoms are already exhausted, and ordered the troops of Liuqiu Tongzhou Middle School to continue to advance quickly, concentrate all light and heavy machine guns to continue to suppress the kingdoms' positions, and tell them who can put the imperial military flag on the kingdoms' positions, and your Excellency Chen will personally wear a gold medal for him."

Yes, after seeing the kingdom position being firmly suppressed by its own firepower, the ambition in the Black Hawk Army infantry captain grew like the weeds in spring, and began to dream of success in one battle again.

After previous fire reconnaissance, he had seen that there were no heavy weapons on the Kingdom's position except for four light machine guns and one heavy machine gun that never appeared again. As for the massive grenades just now, it seemed to him that the Kingdom's peasant rebels fought to the death. He did not believe that the Kingdom people could still have a grenade attack as fiercely as before. Now, only a dozen grenades were dropped occasionally have shown that their subsequent storage of ammunition was weak.

The Fourth Division, which had just been included in the Black Hawk Army sequence, is not like other Black Hawk Army divisions that participated in the Battle of Qingning County two years ago. They have never fought since the Russo-Japanese War, especially with the Kingdom Army. The 20th Infantry Regiment had fought against the Kingdom Anti-Japanese Alliance in the north, but for those poor guys who had some pistols and rifles, the 20th Infantry Regiment was too lazy to struggle.

I think this group of kingdom farmers in Qingning County are not much stronger than their equipment.

The vendors of the Fourth Division, which are regarded as "outliers" by other divisions of the Black Hawk Army, may not know that the kingdom army's favorite is grenades because of its insufficient heavy weapons. Whether it is the elite Central Army or the poor warlords and miscellaneous army, including the "beggar" Qiu Tongjun who has to tie them with straw ropes in the future, wearing straw shoes and carrying rifles and bolts, must have at least four grenades on their bodies, which is their most important close-range "heavy weapons".

That's not to mention the Qing army of Shangwen who had sufficient gunpowder and could not produce other weapons. When they had nothing to do, they produced grenades. In order to deal with the attack of the Black Hawk Army, on the position, whether it was the No. 1 position or the No. 2 position five hundred meters away, each soldier had set off at least ten grenades in the individual gun hole excavated by his side, which was definitely a wealthy grenade.

With the military order of the brigade leader, two squadrons who had just dispatched to attack and prepared to cover the attack were immediately felt as if they were injected with chicken blood. Not only did the two squadrons start to accelerate, but even an infantry squadron who was responsible for the cover began to accelerate.

Three infantry teams nearly 200 people rushed towards the front of the No. 1 position. In addition, nearly 20 Blackhawk Imperial Army, which was desperately digging field individual bunkers forty or fifty meters in front of the position, had more than 200 Blackhawk Imperial Army attacking this wave of attacking.

At the same time, the two infantry squadrons had a total of twelve grenade launchers, twelve light machine guns, plus one heavy machine gun squad, four heavy machine guns, launched a comprehensive firepower suppression on the front of the No. 1 position. Judging from that posture, the No. 1 position was instantly in danger and was shaking in the wave of the Black Hawks offensive.

Shang Wenqing, who had been holding a telescope in the distance, looked increasingly ugly. He did not expect that after suffering such a severe blow, the Black Hawk Army became even more crazier and directly dispatched a whole infantry squadron to charge. What is this the hawker division that Captain Liu teased?

In his opinion, this was no less than the fierce counterattack of the 8th Division he encountered two years ago. If Zhao Daoxiao's cavalry had not attacked in time, the army under his command would have disappeared long ago. Although he had been fighting with the Black Hawk Imperial Army, he had never underestimated the strong combat effectiveness of the Black Hawk Imperial Army. Even if he had to sneak attack a small-scale Black Hawk Imperial Army transport team, he would have dispatched no less than one battalion. If he encountered an infantry squadron of the Black Hawk Imperial Army, he had even dispatched a regiment of thousands of people to siege, but in that case, he had never had the record of completely annihilated an infantry squadron of the Black Hawk Imperial Army. The infantry squadron of nearly 200 people in the Black Hawk Imperial Army can often last for five or six hours until their reinforcements come to rescue.

"Appoint the troops in Tongzhou, Liuqiu, pay attention to the mortars of the kingdoms, but don't worry too much. Our mountain cannons will give them enough support." Looking at the soldiers who were already close to the kingdom's position, a smile appeared on the face of the Black Hawk Army infantry captain and continued to say to the messenger.

"Yes." The Black Hawk Army's messenger took the order to pass the order.

Yes, from the Black Hawk Army to the Kingdom Guardians themselves, they were waiting for the emergence of mortars. The several 82 mortars supported by Liu Lang were the largest killer weapon of Shangwen Qing's army, and played an unimaginable role in the repeated battles with the Qingning County garrison. If it weren't for the existence of mortars, the First Mixed Brigade stationed in Qingning County would not have been harassed by Shangwen Qing's peasant resistance army, so they would have turned down their faces and asked for help from the Black Hawk Army headquarters.

You know, it is the first time for all the Black Hawk troops in the Northern Three Prefectures and Qingning County to cry when they were harassed by a group of peasant rebels.

The key is that the mortar is small in size, light in weight but not small in power. The Black Hawk infantry, which only carries grenade launchers, is really not the opponent of the mortar. Several times, the transport team with a force of up to one infantry squadron was attacked by the kingdoms, and they were beaten by the mortars. If they were not for their strong combat power, they would probably have been waiting for less than five hours to wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

But now, the Black Hawk Army with a longer range and stronger mountain cannon is not afraid of mortars. They are waiting for the emergence of the Kingdom people's mortars to be destroyed in one fell swoop.

By then, their 20th Regiment's rapid-fire gun squadron will be available. Six 37mm rapid-fire guns can tear down any firepower on the Kingdom people's positions that dare to resist to pieces.
