War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 214 is so enjoyable! (Thanks to the 'Let's Always Be Together' brother for the reward!)
This is the tactic Xu Chaoyang arranged for Sun Damazi - encirclement!
It would be sheer nonsense to let Xu Chaoyang lead less than 41 people to fight against the encirclement of a regiment. But if Sun Damazi, who withdrew from Chifeng with the st Army, fought against the encirclement of a regiment of the Japanese, it would be a sure win!

Therefore, while Xu Chaoyang asked Yang Jingyu to report the situation, he also asked him to lead the 41st Army's reconnaissance company around the mountain. After observing the position of the Japanese from a distance, he used his own method of firepower to cut off the battlefield and concentrated all the heavy firepower of the 41st Army on the Japanese artillery positions and the heavy firepower areas guarding the artillery positions.

Immediately afterwards, the 41st Army began to encircle a Japanese regiment on both sides of the road from Chifeng to Weichang. As gunfire rang out, Madsen's bullets flew everywhere under the cover of night, and all the Japanese artillery positions suffered devastating blows.

That’s more than 500 Madsens!
Under this kind of firepower, Xu Chaoyang watched helplessly as two small trees on the mountain were broken. The sounds of trees breaking and logs rolling down the mountain echoed in the valley. The bullet craters on the hillside were now as numerous as raindrops, and the number of bullet landings was calculated in centimeters. The Japanese were all smashed to pieces alive.

However, this concentrated firepower advantage has a flaw, which is that it can give the Japanese infantry time to escape, and the light machine guns in the hands of the Japanese infantry will form new firepower points after they have established their positions...

After the eight regiments of the 41st Army surrounded a Japanese regiment from both sides of the road, the Japanese artillery and heavy machine gun positions were destroyed in an instant. However, a large number of infantrymen holding Type rifles climbed over the hillside and were forced by bullets to retreat to the commanding heights on both sides of the road.

At this moment, it stands to reason that we should fight an offensive battle, or at least it should be an offensive battle in which the soldiers organize a suicide squad to charge under the fire suppression of the commanding heights.

Can……

The 41st Army will not fight anymore!

The eight regiments formed a circle from the mountains to encircle the Japanese by cutting off the roads, but they did not fight.

Under the pitch-black night, the only sounds were the sporadic counterattacks of the Japanese Type 38 rifles, and only occasionally could the sound of the Type 99 light machine guns being set up.

Xu Chaoyang tilted his head and looked at Yang Jingyu beside him, and said, "Old Yang, do you think the Japanese are panicking right now?"

"They are strong as iron? How can we not panic?"

Xu Chaoyang was happy.

He had already seen the 41st Army setting up flat-fire artillery on the top of the hill, and some of them had seized the Japanese Type 92 infantry artillery position and then turned the muzzle of the gun.

Sun Damazi was really ruthless. Xu Chaoyang watched through the telescope as the entire 41st Army Artillery Regiment rushed to the Japanese artillery position just now. Some were transporting artillery along the ridge of the mountain, some were turning the direction of grenade launchers, and some were measuring the distance. These people were busy and having a lot of fun!
Yes, this is still Xu Chaoyang’s plan!
Using the powerful firepower of the 41st Army, the remaining Japanese troops were forced to the commanding heights on both sides of the road. In this freezing weather, they were forced to dig frozen soil and dig shelters with all their might. While these bastards were exhausted, they couldn't dig a deep pit very well.

Taking advantage of this critical moment, the 41st Army seized the enemy's artillery positions while setting up all of its own artillery, and then!
"Send the order!"

"Tell Tong Meng to aim all our guns at the enemy's commanding heights and fire all our shells in one go!"

Xu Chaoyang stood up directly on the hillside, pointed his index finger at several commanding heights on both sides of the road, and shouted "Ah!"

Count on him to lead the team to attack the stronghold?

Not that!
Cui Xingwu sent so many cannons but they are not being used. What are you waiting for?

Xu Chaoyang doesn't have the addiction of having artillery shells but not using them, forcing the soldiers to charge forward and die!

tom!
Under the cover of night, when the sound of 240mm heavy artillery shook the valley, it was as if a giant beast hidden between the mountains was roaring. The long and distant sound proved that Xu Chaoyang had arranged his artillery positions farther than the encirclement camp of the 41st Army. This was clearly a distance test with the Japanese, and he was simply bullying the Type 92 infantry gun, which was a small fry.

There was nothing he could do about it. Who told Xu Chaoyang to just eat alone? If he hadn't seen that the ambush was carried out by a regiment of Japanese soldiers, he would have opened fire on them.

boom!
The low hill was hit by a 240mm artillery shell, and the dust on the top of the hill burst up in large chunks. The whole hill looked like a concave crater. The accuracy of this shot was so high that Xu Chaoyang wondered when Tong Meng's craftsmanship had improved to such an extent.
On the hilltop 240 meters behind him, Tong Meng took off his hat and beat the soldier who was operating the 75mm heavy artillery. He was so angry that he said, " meters off?! If you aim at the hilltop on the left, can you cross the road and shoot at the other side?"

"What kind of look is this?"

The next second, the 41st Army's artillery positions were set up, and the artillery of the regiment aimed its flat-fire guns at the Japanese in front, and a series of artillery bombardments suddenly sounded. Boom! Boom! Boom!
tom!tom!tom!
There was no good place left in the entire encirclement: on the mountain, in the woods at the foot of the mountain, on the middle road, and on the mound opposite the road. Grenade launchers, mortars, mountain cannons, and field cannons exploded at the same time.

Xu Chaoyang squatted on the top of the hill with a telescope in his hand, without firing a single shot, just watching the fireworks show.

Seeing the continuous artillery fire on the ground, the night sky was blown out with dim spots of light. The light illuminated Xu Chaoyang's face, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.

"Old Yang, Old Yang, Sun Damazi is not going to cross the river. How many shells has he fired in such a small area?"

The sound of the devil's counterattack?
I can't hear you anymore...

The screams of the devils?
Can't cross the mountains...

The sound of artillery fire from all over the mountains resounded through the sky. The surrounding hills were frequently hit by artillery shells, mixed with Madsen's gunfire.

tom!
boom!
In a moment, half of the tree was blown off, and the remaining half continued to smoke in the charred state. After the thick smoke rose, a flame appeared on the dark tree, and then it slowly burned.

The Japanese had no cover on the mountain and had no way to escape. Sun Damazi's flat-fire cannon was turned towards where there were more people. There was no such thing as "keeping the cannon muzzle flat and holding a military court" during the war years.

"Enjoyed!"

Sun Damazi was holding a telescope on a high slope in the distance and saw a Japanese soldier being blown away by a shell and falling onto the road from the top of a hill. He was twitching with one leg missing.

He could no longer calculate how many people in this Japanese regiment had died. He only saw that the Japanese were forced into a corner, with bayonets hung on their Type 38 rifles. When more than 20 people rushed down the hillside in a counterattack, they were directly mowed down by a group of his soldiers holding Madsen machine guns.

A cannon can cross the space between two high points and directly bombard the opposite side. A person has absolutely no way of crossing this distance unless he can grow wings. But even if he has wings, with so many Madsen guns, he can still shoot down a bird, right?

Finally, there was no more decent gunfire counterattack from all the commanding heights on both sides of the road. Sun Damazi curled his lips and shouted, "The artillery regiment ceases fire, and the infantry will attack!"

Da da da da da!
Ta-ta-ta-ta!

The sound of Madsen's gunfire, which had become less loud, reappeared. While multiple machine guns were suppressing the commanding heights at the same time, the bullets raining down on the hillside could not even detect any movement of the Japanese.

Under the cover of machine guns, when several regiments led by Sun Damazi rushed to the foot of the mountain with bayonets fixed, there was no way to walk on the road. There were bomb craters upon bomb craters. In the middle of winter, a burning heat wave could be felt on the scorched earth around them.

"Is there still anyone alive here?"

A soldier said so.

Another soldier kicked away a broken Type 38 rifle, looked at the body that was beginning to separate from the belly, and shook his head woodenly.

This place would be blown to pieces, not to mention humans, even gods would be blown to pieces.
