Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

Chapter 191 Ding Wei: My artillery is not at a disadvantage

Ding Wei really likes the classic pretentious scenes of Yuan Benchu ​​in the Three Kingdoms period, and my sword is not at all disadvantageous.

He didn't have a sword in his hand, but what he could give to the Japanese was a cannon.

Especially the 107/120mm mortar, whose indirect firepower is suitable for combat in mountainous areas.

Fire at the preset firing position.

The order was issued, and taking advantage of the chaos of the Japanese and puppet troops, Ding Wei's three mortar battalions opened fire. Within two or three minutes, they scattered hundreds of shells prepared by the artillery positions.

The sounds of explosions and gunfire mixed together.

The Japs bore the brunt of the attack and felt the ferocious firepower of the counterattack.

Fragments of the explosion flew everywhere; the power of the heavy mortar was comparable to that of the howitzer.

At the moment, there are no anti-artillery fortifications, and we are clearly within the enemy's bombing range.

What accuracy?

There is no need to consider accuracy. If you are rich, you can cover a large area with artillery fire and boil a pot of steel mixture.

The intensive artillery fire lasted for a very short time. The range of the mortar was relatively short, with a maximum range of about 6000 meters, which was not as good as the Japanese field artillery.

After rapidly firing the shells, move the position as quickly as possible.

After the mortar battalion evacuated, the area where it was located was covered by the Japanese artillery fire.

The field artillery fired a salvo and counterattacked into the mountainous area.

The enemy's field artillery regiment was very elite. They roughly found Ding Wei's mortar position by simply guessing and inferring the point where the shells landed.

Comrades, retreat quickly, otherwise we will be trapped in the ravine by artillery fire.

Firing an artillery is very simple. You can either fire continuously to create fire suppression, or fire quickly and retreat when you run out of ammunition.

The former requires excellent artillery, range, and ammunition reserves.

The latter requires the gunners to cooperate well with each other, obey orders, and test the overall quality of the soldiers.

On the front line of the battlefield, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses.

There were casualties caused by both the mutiny of the puppet army and the counterattack of the Eighth Route Army artillery, totaling 736 people.

Fukutaro Nishiyama slapped his thigh, very dissatisfied with the result.

They hadn't even seen a single Eighth Route Army soldier, but they had already lost so many soldiers. This didn't even include the puppet troops. There were more than a thousand people in the mutinous puppet army, most of whom were shot dead.

Including this group of guys, the direct loss of troops exceeded 1500 people.

What kind of war is this? It's confusing.

The Japanese lieutenant general didn’t know how to report the results of the battle. He consumed more than 8000 artillery shells and destroyed four minefields?

Eliminate 0 people from the Eighth Route Army?

Our side lost more than 1500 soldiers?

Looking at the summary of material losses and casualties in front of me, I felt like a huge black pot had fallen from the sky.

The pressure made it hard for him to breathe.

If this kind of battle report is posted online, I'm afraid I'll be criticized to death.

Fukutaro Nishiyama concluded that they had already come into contact with the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and that they were just a little confused in the past two days due to the minefield.

Once they cross the minefield, the Eighth Route Army will inevitably be defeated.

Let's put the battle report aside for now. We'll take stock of the situation tomorrow, complete some results, and then report them all up.

It was normal for the Japs to try to polish up a horrific battle report to make it look better every time they saw it.

The chaos on the battlefield lasted for a long time, with the puppet army and the Japanese fighting each other, making both sides tense.

This group of beasts actually dared to shoot at another group of beasts.

I no longer trust the puppet troops and pull them aside separately.

The puppet Mongolian army was also frightened, worried that they would displease the queen because of what happened during the day, and thought about how to make amends. People who kneel for too long cannot stand up.

Just as night fell, small units of the Eighth Route Army launched guerrilla tactics.

Approaching the garrison of the Japanese and puppet troops, the gunshots were as crisp as water drops, and the sentry was easily killed.

The patrol troops were alerted.

This subsequently alarmed the main force of the Japanese army.

Welcome to the mountain guerrilla battlefield. From tonight on, you won’t have a good sleep.

In the dark night, both sides raised their guns and fired, bullets whizzed everywhere, but neither side could see the results of the battle.

Snipers in the dark kept attacking, firing at the Japs in the light.

The troops responsible for fire cover in the distance greeted them with mortars.

The sound of the explosion spread, forcing the Japanese and puppet troops who had just rested to return to combat status.

Those who have actually been to the battlefield know best that a person's energetic state of killing enemies can only last for a while, and high-intensity combat will make people feel exhausted.

After a battle, many people lay there like dead dogs, motionless, too tired to open their eyes or lift their eyelids.

The Japanese had been struggling in the minefield for a long time during the day and had taken care of the wounded, and were just about to take a break.

The Eighth Route Army attacked.

Force your eyes open and join the counterattack.

The gunfire did not subside until the second half of the night. The Eighth Route Army lost 17 people and killed more than 230 Japanese and puppet troops.

The enemy is in the open and I am in the dark. I can attack when I advance and run when I retreat.

This group of people explored the mountain area thoroughly, as if it were their own back garden, and they disappeared into the ravines without a trace.

The Japanese were frightened when they saw the densely packed hillside. Which way should they chase them?

There are no mines.

It was already the early hours of the morning when the sky began to turn pale. I had hardly slept the entire night and it was time to prepare for breakfast.

The white rice porridge has just been cooked.

The main counterattack of the Eighth Route Army came. During the harassment last night, they also scouted the main position of the enemy. At dawn, the main force of Zhang Dabiao's column attacked.

All artillery units are in position and firing at full capacity.

The shells came down like a flood, overturning the iron pot and sending the hot porridge flying onto the Japs.

He grimaced in pain and quickly struggled to get under his body.

The hot porridge went into my neck and danced there because of the heat.

It was good luck to get burned, as the howitzer landed and the shock wave of the explosion was very powerful.

Shrapnel, flames, dust and smoke quickly filled the air.

Ding Wei deployed the howitzer regiment, and pressed forward with 36 122mm howitzers, 12 150mm howitzers, and mortars.

The Eighth Route Army forces hidden near the mountains quickly surrounded and gathered like a stream, attacking the main force of the Japanese army.

The artillery firepower is only stronger than that of the 23rd Division, and they can definitely engage in a head-on artillery showdown.

The charging troops pressed onto the battlefield.

They emerged from all directions and killed their way into the core of the Japanese army.

It was difficult to form an effective blocking force in such a hasty battle. Although the Japanese reacted quickly, the Eighth Route Army still broke through their formation.

The soldiers rushed into the crowd of Japanese devils and fired continuously with submachine guns with very strong firepower.

Those carrying rotary machine guns are not good at charging, so they immediately lie on the ground and provide fire cover.

The front-line assault troops were equipped with a large number of submachine guns, and the bullets rained down like a curtain of rain, washing over the battlefield.

After killing the Japanese, he picked up the Type 96 light machine gun from the ground. This was a new thing, and the Japanese in the country were rarely equipped with it.

The Type 99 light machine gun is the worst weapon and equipment, and the Japanese also know that it is not very useful.

The advantages of the Czech light machine gun were deliberately absorbed to produce a new light machine gun.

But the bullet still uses the same 6.5mm caliber, which is equivalent to a combination of the Type rifle and the Czech rifle.

The Kwantung Army was equipped with a number of new light machine guns, and the Expeditionary Army actually had some as well, but the entire replacement process was very slow and the number of equipment was not large.

If the troops are equipped with Type 99 rifles, continue to use them.

Those who have lost their machine guns will be replaced with new ones.

The Kwantung Army is a treasured possession of ours. When it comes to new weapons and equipment, they are always given priority here.

When the soldiers got them, they found that they were similar to the Czech type and much easier to use than the Type 99 rifle. They just picked it up and shot, killing many Japanese soldiers.
