After graduating from Huangpu, he rose to prominence as a regiment leader.

Chapter 162: Opportunities are fleeting, and we must completely encircle and wipe out the four enemy

Temporary command post of the new 3rd Division of the Eighth Route Army.

"Commander! It's over! It's really over!"

"Five hundred artillery pieces!" The deputy's face turned extremely ugly when he heard the intensive artillery fire coming from the direction of Taiyuan ahead.

Just recently, they had received news that Kazuo Shinozuka had mobilized all the heavy firepower of four divisions to launch a full-scale bombardment on Taiyuan City!

Five hundred heavy artillery pieces!

Not to mention one Taiyuan City, even ten Taiyuan Cities would be enough to be razed to the ground and would completely cease to exist!

"What about the Independent Brigade? And the 386th Brigade, have they retreated to Taiyuan?" The division commander couldn't help but be shocked.

"No! The independent brigade has already fully deployed on the battlefield and stretched out the battle line. It looks like they are determined to fight the Japanese to the death!" The deputy shook his head bitterly.

"How stupid!" The commander clenched his fists and said angrily.

Deputy: "Then Commander, what should we do next?"

"Pass my order! Speed up, we must find a way to open a way out before the Japanese completely take over Taiyuan!" The division commander took a deep breath, "Otherwise, it will be all over!"

With five hundred artillery pieces standing there, no one would be foolish enough to confront the Japanese head-on. This would be a completely impulsive act without considering the consequences at all!

But now that the war had begun, he couldn't say anything.

If the independent brigade were bombarded by the Japanese artillery for a few more rounds, they would suffer heavy losses even if they did not die!

Right now, they are racing against time with the Japanese. They must break the encirclement before the Japanese completely take over Taiyuan. They must save as many people as possible!

Thinking of this, the commander shook his head helplessly. The Qin Feng, who had never met him, really wanted to expose the truth!

Just when he was about to say something again!

"Boom boom boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Sudden and massive explosions sounded again!

What’s different from the previous artillery sounds is that this time the noise is definitely several times stronger!

Even the distant sky was dyed a fiery red!

"Report...Report to the commander!"

"It's over!"

"It's all over!" A communicator's voice suddenly rang out from outside.

The division commander seemed to have lost all his strength in an instant, and could only slowly sit down on the chair at the back: "Is the independent brigade finished?"

"No! Commander!" The communicator trotted to the commander's side, breathing heavily, but his tone was full of excitement and excitement.

"It's...it's the Japs!"

"The Japs are all finished!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire command room fell silent. Everyone stared at the communicator in disbelief with their eyes wide open.

"What did you say?!"

"The Japs are finished?"

Not only the division commander, but even the deputy beside him looked confused.

With such a massive bombardment, do you think the Japanese are finished? ? ?

"Quick! Explain the situation to me clearly!" The division commander stood up suddenly and grabbed the communicator's shoulders with both hands.

"Yes!"

Then, the communicator told the intelligence and news that had just been transmitted from the battlefield.

...

"Are you saying that the explosion just now was caused by the Independent Brigade?" The division commander subconsciously took a breath of cold air.

A bombardment of this scale would definitely not be possible with just dozens or even hundreds of cannons.

The earth-shaking just now was so intense that even though they were so far away, they could still feel it, as if the entire Taiyuan area was experiencing an earthquake.

Especially the momentum, the flames rising into the sky dyed half of the sky red. This scene was something I had never seen in my life!

"Yes! Commander, according to the information sent back by the front-line reconnaissance, it seems to be an extremely strange artillery. Each artillery can fire nearly twenty shells in an instant. The tail of the shells has flames, which is very strange!" The communicator swallowed and said.

"Twenty rounds?" The division commander frowned subconsciously. "How many guns like this does the entire independent brigade have?"

The communicator licked his cracked lips and said, "Commander, at least fifty!"

In fact, it is not quite appropriate to describe that thing as artillery, because it is different from ordinary heavy artillery. That kind of war weapon is completely integrated with the truck.

But at this time the communicator could not explain too much and could only assume that the counting unit was the same as the artillery.

"Fifty?" The division commander's pupils shrank slightly. "Does that mean the independent brigade can fire thousands of shells at a time?"

"This is just one time?!"

The communicator nodded with difficulty: "Yes! And our scouts have seen that the Japanese have set up a position several miles long, and almost all of it is covered by firepower!"

"As for how many devils can survive, it's hard to say!"

The communicator's words were not an exaggeration. Judging from the situation, not to mention the Japs, even their steel artillery would be in danger.

Who can withstand such a barrage of shells?

Listening to the conversation between the two, the division chief of staff standing next to them finally couldn't help but speak: "Division Commander, why do I feel that our trip here is completely unnecessary?"

The independent brigade actually has such weapons and equipment and can provide such firepower coverage. Isn't defending Taiyuan City a piece of cake?

Moreover, according to current intelligence, this batch of weapons is not afraid of large-scale attacks at all. Any human wave tactics will be destroyed without leaving any trace in the face of intensive bombing.

"That may not be the case." The commander suddenly said.

"I guess this should be a trump card that Qin Feng has kept in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have waited until now to reveal it."

"It's very powerful, but it probably has some drawbacks as well." The division commander shook his head. His rich war experience told him that he should be very close to the truth.

"Disadvantages?" The chief of staff was stunned.

"Yes, such as the transmission frequency and protection capability."

The chief of staff nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "So, division commander, where are we now?"

To be honest, with the strength shown by the independent brigade, not to mention fighting their way out, even breaking through as a whole can be no problem.

Now it seems that their full-scale deployment into Taiyuan has no meaning at all!

After thinking for a moment, the commander suddenly said, "I think now is a good opportunity."

"Opportunity?" The chief of staff was stunned. "What do you mean, commander?"

"Now that Kazuo Shinozuka's heavy firepower has been basically destroyed, and even the tank brigade has been defeated, what's the difference between the Japanese now and a toothless tiger?" The division commander's eyes were shining, and no one dared to look directly at him.

The chief of staff hesitated: "But commander, what about the Japanese planes? You don't want to?"

"I don't care about that anymore! The opportunity is right in front of us!" The division commander took a deep breath, "Pass my order! All members of the New Third Division will go into battle!"

"There is no strategic direction. In a word, just kill them!"

"At all costs, cooperate with the independent brigade to eliminate the enemy's effective forces!" the division commander suddenly said.

The chief of staff was stunned: "But commander, what should we do at headquarters?"

The division commander waved his hand and said, "The opportunity is fleeting. We can't care about the headquarters at this time. I would rather believe that this is a signal from the independent brigade to the surrounding troops!"

"Okay." The chief of staff shook his head helplessly and prepared to give the order.

"Wait a moment." The division commander suddenly stopped him again, "You'd better send a telegram back."

The chief of staff held his forehead with his hand: "Yes! Division Commander."
