Chapter 1203 Zhao Zhiguo, the rich and powerful department

While in the frontline troops, Zhao Zhiguo received a piece of news.

In order to prevent the attack of General Bai's three armies, the Japanese army used poison gas bombs.

Zhao Zhiguo thought that since they couldn't use poison gas bombs, they could use improved versions of "biochemical weapons."

This kind of biochemical weapon is quite powerful, but it has no subsequent damage. It can definitely help the frontline troops on the battlefield.

After receiving the news from Zhao Zhiguo, the arsenal immediately improved the artillery shells.

The results of the experiment were so remarkable that the arsenal began to purchase large quantities of peppers in the defense zone, and even contacted Commander Zhang of the Northwest Army to ask for his help.

Qiu Zian did not get the answer he wanted from Zhao Zhiguo.

Even after eating a few chopsticks for dinner, I no longer had any appetite.

In the headquarters at night, only the telegraph machine was beeping.

Everyone has their own thoughts.

Zhao Zhiguo sat at the table, worried about the war on the front line.

Tian Kezhi stayed in front of the telegraph machine, preparing to report the news of the front line's return to Zhao Zhiguo as soon as possible.

Qiu Zian and Cao Jiyu's faces were full of confusion, and they couldn't understand many questions.

How many artillery pieces does Zhao Zhiguo have? Since there are so many artillery pieces, it’s enough to just fire at those little devils. Why do we need to make other preparations?

And what other preparations did Zhao Zhiguo make?

As time passed by, Cao Jiyu gradually became sleepy and yawned several times in succession.

Zhao Zhiguo stood up and patted Cao Jiyu on the shoulder, indicating that he could go to bed and lie down for a while.

But Cao Jiyu glanced at Qiu Zian who was beside him and declined Zhao Zhiguo's kindness.

As soon as ten o'clock arrived, the troops on the front line gave the order to attack.

The flying thunder cannon was almost mounted on the shoulders of the charging troops.

As soon as they entered the firing range, the soldiers set up the flying thunder cannon as quickly as possible.

It doesn't matter where the explosive package is thrown, as long as it penetrates into the little devil's position, it will be considered a success.

"Boom boom boom"

The sound of the explosion was comparable to that of an explosion in an arsenal. The fire caused by the explosion turned the Japanese position into a sea of ​​flames.

The Japanese army, who did not understand the situation, thought it was really an explosion in the arsenal.

But when the explosion went off, the ears of the little Japanese soldiers guarding the position only buzzed, and then electric lights flashed in their eyes.

Many little devils were temporarily deafened by the explosion.

Within just a few minutes, about four tons of explosive packages were thrown onto the Japs' position.

The little devils on the battlefield lost their ability to judge in the violent explosion.

After the Chinese army stopped shelling, the Japs still had not recovered from the aftermath of the explosion.

However, the Chinese soldiers had already reached the Japanese position. As the explosion ended, the soldiers launched a charge against the Japanese position without hesitation.

When the soldiers rushed into the Japanese trenches, they found a large number of Japanese soldiers squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, unprepared to resist.

Until the Chinese soldiers stabbed the sharp bayonets into the little Japanese's bodies, the little Japanese still looked dazed. Even at the moment they died, their ears still had not recovered.

"Bang bang bang bang"

Outside Jinyang City, gunshots and explosions intertwined.

The position was in chaos. In the darkness, the panicked Japanese soldiers could not even tell where the enemy was and where their companions were.

The pig teammates and puppet troops of the Japanese army had no ability to resist at all, and had already lost their armor in the charge.

"The flying thunder cannon is easy to use, but it's a pity that the range of this thing is only about 200 meters at most! If this thing had a range of one kilometer, I would dare to break into Jinyang City now."

Seeing his troops rushing towards the Japanese position, Zhao Ziming praised the flying thunder cannon for its usefulness.

Thunder cannons were originally mainly used for defense.

Now it has become a weapon for their charge.

In the dark night, the troops rushed to a position only 200 meters away from the enemy's position, then deployed nearly a hundred flying thunder cannons and fired two rounds. No matter how strong the enemy's fortifications were, they could not withstand such a blow.

After improving the gunpowder, the power of the thunder cannon has been greatly improved, and the explosion power of the shell of the Little Devil 105 howitzer is even greater.

"Report to the commander, the Japanese troops on the position are being defeated."

"Fire the green signal flare to make the troops stop pursuing, defend on the spot, and bring back all the weapons and ammunition scattered on the position."

The battle was fought smoothly and happily.

Zhao Ziming and the others have already taken advantage of them. If they continue to pursue them, the little devils in the city will definitely come out.

Stopping at this time can greatly reduce their casualties.

If the troops suffered too many casualties at this time, they would have no chance to continue their attack on Jinyang City.

The results achieved by the second regiment were also good.

However, Qin Dongsheng struck harder, first bombarding the Japanese forward positions with thunder cannons, and then bombarding the Japanese troops in depth with mortars.

After a round of shelling, the remaining firepower on the Japanese position was completely unable to support the situation on the battlefield.

After the troops launched the charge, only sporadic gunshots rang out from the Jaap position.

Unfortunately, the Little Japanese's outer position was very close to Jinyang City. If they pursued too quickly, they would easily be hit by fire from the Japanese troops inside the city.

Qin Dongsheng and Zhao Ziming both understood that their current firepower was enough to attack the outer positions, but if they were to attack the firepower on the city wall several meters high, it would be somewhat insufficient.

The best decision at the moment is to take advantage of the darkness when the Japanese army is unable to launch a large-scale counterattack, hold the position, and transport away the various weapons and ammunition abandoned by the Japanese army on the position.

Before dawn, Zhao Ziming and Qin Dongsheng ordered the troops to withdraw from the battle, maintain the status of yesterday's daytime, and continue to confront the Japanese troops in Jinyang City.

The Japanese commander of Jinyang City was lying on the bunker on the city wall, looking at the position that was still intact yesterday.

He never expected that their troops would be defeated in just half an hour last night.

"Judging from the traces of explosions on the position, the opponent used at least 150mm caliber artillery, and the number was no less than twenty."

The Japanese commander judged the caliber of artillery Zhao Zhiguo and the others had from the traces left by the explosion on the position.

"Your Excellency, Commander, according to the reports of the soldiers who survived last night, they did not hear the sound of artillery fire. They only heard a rapid muffled sound, followed by a violent explosion, and then our position was plunged into a sea of ​​fire." A Japanese soldier.

The staff officer said.

The Japanese army could not judge from the sound what weapons the Chinese army was using.

"We also encountered the same shelling at the West City Gate, but the Chinese troops attacking from the West City Gate had more intense firepower. They also used mortars to bombard our positions in depth."

The Japanese commander was thinking, there were heavy artillery deployed in both directions, where did the Chinese army come from with so many large-caliber artillery.
