Started as a security team, developed into a heavy armored synthesis division

[Ding, killed a colonel, got 2000 points]

Seeing this message, Xiao Dingfang laughed out loud: "Hey, what a coincidence, a colonel was killed right away."

Xiao Dingfang was naturally very happy about this unexpected event. 2000 points were enough to buy a 155 cannon.

Boom, boom, soon, the five rounds of salvos from the field artillery in the rear ended, and all the Japs ran away.

Of course, of the more than 200 Japanese soldiers who came together, less than half escaped.

The rest of the people were all killed by the 105mm artillery. Xiao Dingfang gained more than 500 points. His total points now reached , making him quite rich.

"Captain, the artillery fire just now was pretty good." At this time, the artillery commander-in-chief Xiaozhuang came over to seek praise.

"Hehe, not bad, not bad, very accurate.

When you first came to my army in Sanbing Town, you were just a kid.

I just didn't expect that you are such a genius, and you have become our artillery commander without us noticing."

Xiao Dingfang was also very emotional. With Xiaozhuang's presence, he felt at ease with the artillery training, which saved him a lot of time.

Xiaozhuang became even happier when he heard Xiao Dingfang's praise.

"Hehe, Captain, don't worry. If you need artillery support in the future, just look for me. I guarantee that every shot will be accurate."

"Alright, stop being so conceited. Quickly order the troops to withdraw from the frontline positions and retreat to the reverse slope of Shiniu Mountain."

Hearing this, Xiao Zhuang was stunned, and then he said, "Reverse slope? Commander, you mean the Japanese are going to fire artillery."

"Of course, I don't believe Sakai can tolerate what he said today."

"Yes."

Just like that, Xiaozhuang began to convey orders, while Xiao Dingfang called the monkey in Beitang Mountain.

Similarly, the first battalion in the direction of Beitang Mountain also withdrew from its positions and retreated to the reverse slope behind the mountain.

"Captain, I sent off the convoy of bullet production lines, along with the synchronized artillery and 20 dollars."

At this time, Huang Liancheng also came back. Although he was panting, his face was full of excitement.

He didn't understand the bullet production line, but the 20 dollars was real money, enough for the Third Regiment to use for several months.

"Okay, don't get excited. Hide quickly. If you get killed by a shell, don't blame me for not warning you."

Just like that, all three battalions on Shiniushan Mountain were hidden, and at this moment, in the command post of Sakai Tokutaro in Nangang Town.

"Baga Yala, order the artillery battalion to prepare for bombardment, target Shiniu Mountain.

Nakata, Takeshita, and Takeko, the three of you should prepare for the attack.

Once my artillery battalion stops bombarding, you must immediately launch an attack to capture Shiniu Mountain and capture Xiao Dingfang alive. Do you understand?"

"Hey!"

In just half a quarter of an hour, Sakai's artillery battalion had completed preparations behind Nanming Port.

不过这里的大炮不只是12门九五式75毫米野战炮，还有12门41式75毫米山炮。

The Japanese Type 75 10mm field gun could fire up to kilometers away and was placed relatively far back.

The Type 41 75mm mountain gun can only fire 6 kilometers and is located relatively forward.

But even so, they are still far away from Shiniushan Mountain, about 6 kilometers away.

They didn't dare to move forward because Xiao Dingfang had a 105 field gun and were afraid of being bombarded.

Finally, the Japanese completed their artillery preparations. 12 field guns and 12 mountain guns opened fire at the same time, and 24 shells were fired at Shiniushan at once.

"Captain, is what you said accurate? Why haven't the Japanese fired yet?"

Reverse slope, Huang Liancheng asked puzzledly.

Xiao Dingfang said unhappily, "Old Huang, you are a battalion commander after all, you have to keep calm.

Sakai lost face in the deal with us today, and he also lost so many people. It would be strange if he could hold back."

As soon as Xiao Dingfang finished speaking, a whistling sound was heard from the sky, and then the next second, there was a rumble!

24 artillery shells reported their positions at the same time, and the roar of the shells seemed to make the entire Shiniushan Mountain tremble.

With such a loud commotion, even the veteran Huang Liancheng couldn't help but shrink his neck and crouch down, fearing that the shells would fall on him.

Seeing this, Xiao Dingfang was amused: "Hey, this round of salvos is at least 20 shells. How about it, is this firepower enough?"

Huang Liancheng also knew that Xiao Dingfang was laughing at him, but he was thick-skinned, so he said shamelessly:

"No, this firepower is not good enough. It is much less powerful than our 105."

Yes, this is only a 75mm field gun. If I take out a 105mm field gun, how will you respond?

However, Xiao Dingfang did not give a direct order. Instead, he turned to Xiaozhuang and asked, "Xiaozhuang, can you tell the distance from the Japanese artillery position to us? Can you calculate it?"

In response, Xiaozhuang did not respond, but waited for the second round of artillery fire from the Japanese.

Boom boom boom, soon the second round of shells came down, and Xiaozhuang also spoke excitedly:

"Captain, judging from the sound, the Japanese artillery position seems to be only five or six kilometers away."

Seeing Xiaozhuang's smiling face, Xiao Dingfang knew what he was thinking. Sure enough, the next moment Xiaozhuang spoke again.

"Captain, I have an idea. Our field artillery can now be maneuvered using trucks. Although it will be a bit slower, we can try to move our positions forward and destroy the Japanese artillery positions."

Seeing Xiaozhuang say this, Xiao Dingfang was very pleased, and then he directly ordered:

"Okay, now I order the field artillery battalion to move its position from Zhangjiawadi to the foot of Jinjiling and be ready for artillery fire."

"Yes!"

Xiaozhuang excitedly made a phone call to convey the order.

Boom boom boom, boom boom! Boom boom boom!

The Japanese soldiers fired round after round towards Shiniushan as if they were free of charge.

If Huang Liancheng's Third Battalion had not retreated from its position to the reverse slope, there would have been heavy casualties.

"Give me the cock!"

Finally, the shelling stopped and the Japanese infantry began to attack.

And the one who gave the order was Sakai himself. They spread out in a fan shape, preparing to launch a full-scale attack from the wide west side of Shiniushan Mountain.

"The Japs have used up their three axes. Go ahead!"

Xiao Dingfang took the lead, and then the soldiers of the third battalion also began to rush towards the position.

Many soldiers had just arrived at the position and saw that the Japanese had indeed arrived, and many of them had already reached the foot of the mountain and were preparing to climb the slope.

"beat!"

Light machine guns, heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, 60 mortars, 81 mortars, they were all firing at the Japanese.

The Japanese seemed very determined to attack this time, and they rushed up the mountain despite the firepower from this side.

For a while, the two sides were tied.

The fighting here was fierce, while people in Beitangshan were just watching.

It's not just Beitang Mountain, there's also Jinji Ridge three kilometers behind. The Fourth Battalion Commander Lao Ma wishes he was the one on Shiniushan Mountain now.

There were constant sounds of gunfire on the top of Shiniushan Mountain, but it was quiet here, and he felt uneasy in his heart.

Unfortunately, his mission was to guard Jinji Ridge.

Just when Lao Ma was feeling depressed, a truck from the field artillery battalion in the east arrived.

"Captain, look, it's a truck, it's our truck!"
