It is to use absolute firepower superiority to overwhelm the Japanese.
The strategic deployment is almost complete now.
The heavy artillery reinforcement regiment and the anti-aircraft artillery regiment are ready for battle.
Now the distance to the Japs has been reduced from five kilometers to three kilometers...
The range of all heavy artillery in the heavy artillery reinforcement group is basically over 10 kilometers.
Although it is the maximum range, it can at least hit this far.
But Fang Yu did not let the heavy artillery reinforcement regiment and the anti-aircraft artillery regiment launch a bombardment five kilometers away.
The main reason is that they are afraid that these Japs will not be able to withstand the beating and will all run away...
If a Japanese soldier five kilometers away escapes, catching him back is really harder than catching a monkey.
But now the distance has been reduced to three kilometers.
Heavy artillery reinforcement regiment with 81 heavy artillery pieces!
The 27 88mm anti-aircraft guns equipped by the anti-aircraft artillery regiment...
Comprehensive angle adjustment...
"emission!"
"emission!"
"emission!"
Wang Chengzhu, head of the heavy artillery reinforcement regiment, and Song Shanpao, head of the anti-aircraft artillery regiment, said at the same time.
It’s time for sex again!
Sparks of light erupted in Wang Chengzhu’s eyes! Exploded!
Fuck!
His favorite!
Watching the Japanese soldiers in front of you being torn into pieces by cannonballs... Only those who have experienced that feeling will know how enjoyable it is!
At that moment, the pupils were filled with light!
fry!
fry!
The Japanese 25th Division, 5th Heavy Artillery Regiment, 171st Regiment, and 293rd Regiment originally had about 31,000 troops.
But the troops blocked along the way killed round after round...
In addition, soldiers who were lost during the rapid march or accidentally injured and unable to continue walking.
Now the Japanese's first wave of reinforcements only has about 28,000 people.
Now, these 28,000 Japanese soldiers had just gathered and before they had a firm foothold, they were subjected to this round of hysterical bombardment.
For a while.
I was stunned.
Completely overwhelmed...
The Japanese 25th Division, the 5th Heavy Artillery Regiment, the 171st Regiment, the 293rd Regiment...
These troops have never competed against Fang Yu's troops.
Although Commander Shinozuka kept warning them that this Xia army was so terrifying and difficult to deal with, the empire's 100,000-strong army was wiped out.
But rumors are rumors.
I have never experienced it. Who knows whether this legendary army of Fang Yu is so powerful?
Besides, the armies of their empire have always been rampant, killing anyone who disobeys.
Will there be any accidents?
nonexistent!
Confidence is a must!
Gradually hold your head high and chest high!
The brilliant light in his pupils has always been...exploding.
As the commander-in-chief of the first wave of Japanese reinforcements, Nishizawa Tae, the commander of the 25th Division, had just gained a foothold, but he withstood such bombardment, and for a while he was somewhat unsteady...
"Your Excellency, the Head of the Reporting Division!"
"Enemy! The enemy has begun an artillery battle!"
"And they have a lot of heavy artillery, and the artillery battle is extremely powerful!"
A Japanese Major rushed over and reported.
Snapped……
This Japanese Major was rewarded with a loud and loud mouth.
This applause...is very appropriate.
"idiot!"
"Can't the commander of our division feel the power of the enemy's artillery?"
"Need you to report?"
"idiot!"
"Your Majesty the Commander asked us to come here to kill Fang Yu's army."
"Now they are right in front of you, kill the chicken and give it to them!"
"The Fifth Heavy Artillery Regiment deploys artillery positions on the left!"
"The 25th Division Artillery Regiment deploys artillery positions on the right!"
“A two-pronged approach!”
"Destroy the enemy's firepower!"
The commander of the Japanese division, Nishizawa Tae, narrowed his eyes and immediately issued a satisfactory combat order.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, Commander Shinozuka previously issued an order saying that head-on confrontation with the enemy is not allowed..."
"Let us hold off this enemy army..."
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the enemy's firepower is fierce, otherwise we should... retreat some distance?"
Itagaki Yayo, captain of the Japanese Fifth Heavy Artillery Regiment, couldn't help but said.
The general captain of the company is just a senior commander.
However, Itagaki Yayoro, as the captain of the heavy artillery regiment, was granted the rank of major general in an unusual manner.
Relatively speaking, this is relatively rare.
"Itagaki-kun!"
“Don’t use chicken feathers as ceremonial arrows!”
"Do you think the leader of our division is not as smart as you?"
"Is that what you think?"
"madness!"
"Extremely stupid!"
"If we choose to retreat in the first wave of battle, it will have a great impact on the morale of the army."
"At that time, the enemy will be able to overwhelm us directly from the front."
"At that time, our nearly 30,000 troops will be swallowed up in an instant."
"The casualties will only be greater by then."
"What we need to do now is to engage in round battles with the enemy as much as possible."
"They bombarded us with heavy artillery, and we bombarded them with heavy artillery."
"There will be casualties between each other, but it will not damage our foundation."
"Under this condition, a seven or eight-hour battle is not a problem."
"According to the instructions of His Excellency Commander Shinozuka, General Abe will lead the 2nd Imperial Army to arrive here in three hours."
"We only need to fight the opponent for three hours."
"Three hours, fleeting."
"It doesn't matter at all."
"The overall situation is as stable as Mount Tai!"
"Itagaki-kun!"
"Go and deploy the artillery positions."
"Your Excellency, Commander Shinozuka, assigned you to my command and deployment in order to strengthen the firepower of our 25th Division."
"This battle must be fought, but it cannot be fought comprehensively..."
"I believe Itagaki-kun can grasp the scale here."
The leader of the Japanese division smiled calmly, looking very relaxed...
In his imagination, as long as he had an artillery battle with the enemy, there would be no problem.
From beginning to end, isn't it a state of stability?
Accident?
What surprises could happen?
nonexistent.
"The Xia army can destroy the empire's 100,000-strong army..."
"Well! You really can't deal with it rashly."
"Right now...it's just right..."
"Everything is... just right..."
"Just drag it."
"The previous division commanders have paid the price with their own deaths to remind us..."
"Be stable, but never be dissolute..."
The muttering to himself started to sound, and Nishizawa Tae, the leader of the Japanese division, gradually became vigilant.
In his understanding, this artillery battle will last for a long time... a long time...
As long as the artillery from both sides is brought on board, this battle can become a protracted war...
But the artillery battle...is it really a protracted war?
…
boom!
boom!
boom!
The overwhelming artillery shells, as if they were free, completely covered this land!
The air is filled with the smoke of war.
Because of the preemptive attack by the heavy artillery reinforcement regiment and the anti-aircraft artillery regiment, they caused great casualties to the Japanese.
If there were no countermeasures on the Japanese side, if the shelling continued for half an hour, this group of Japanese soldiers would basically collapse.
