Bright Sword: The brigade commander is shocked! You call this a county brigade?

Gao Hua, the company commander of the county brigade, led two platoons of more than 80 soldiers and quietly approached the enemy's artillery tower.

They were like wild beasts in the jungle, silently moving between the woods and fields, gradually forming an encirclement of the artillery tower.

Inside the artillery tower, a Japanese soldier suddenly caught a glimpse of the county brigade members moving in the distance, and his face turned pale instantly.

He hurriedly ran to the turret to report to the Japanese squad leader:

"Taijun, it's bad, the Eighth Route Army is coming to attack our artillery tower!"

When the Japanese squad leader heard the news, he immediately jumped up from his seat.

Quickly rush to the top of the turret and stand on the high ground to overlook the surroundings.

When he saw the county brigade approaching in the distance, a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

"Everyone, get ready for battle!" the Japanese squad leader roared.

His voice echoed in the turret, making all the Japanese soldiers and traitors instantly nervous.

They ran to the firing holes in the turret, weapons in hand, staring at the county brigade in the distance.

The Japanese machine gunner quickly lifted the Type 99 light machine gun to the top of the turret and prepared for battle.

Outside the Japanese artillery tower in Liujia Village, a company of soldiers led by Gao Hua surrounded the tower.

Gao Hua personally took the lead and used a sharp dagger to instantly cut the Japanese's telephone line, cutting off the artillery tower's connection with the outside world.

at the same time.

After the Japanese squad leader in the artillery tower finished arranging the defense, he ran downstairs to prepare to call for reinforcements.

However, when he picked up the phone and called the Japanese in Ping'an County, he found that the phone line was disconnected.

He immediately realized that this was a deliberate act by the Eighth Route Army in order to isolate them and prevent them from contacting the outside world.

Although the telephone lines were cut, the Japanese squad leader did not panic.

He had just observed from the top of the artillery tower and found that there were less than 100 Eighth Route Army soldiers attacking them.

In his opinion, with the powerful firepower in the turret, this amount of troops is nothing to be afraid of.

He walked confidently to the top of the artillery tower and shouted, "Everyone, please pay attention. If the Eighth Route Army below launches an attack, immediately open fire and shoot them down."

The Japanese soldiers in the artillery tower responded one after another. They had already prepared for battle and were waiting for the attack of the Eighth Route Army.

Although the Japanese soldiers were nervous, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and prepare for resistance when they saw how calm the Japanese squad leader was.

They knew that they could only rely on their own strength to resist the Eighth Route Army.

Fortunately, the artillery tower was strong, and they believed that as long as they held their position, the Eighth Route Army would not be able to break in easily.

Just as the Japanese soldiers in the artillery tower were actively preparing for battle.

On a small hill a thousand meters away, Li Dazhu had already prepared the cannon.

Gaoda stood beside the cannon and said to Li Dazhu:

"Dazhu, the company commander has successfully surrounded the Japanese artillery tower. Your mission is to blow that tower to pieces!"

"Yes, Captain!" Li Dazhu responded.

He quickly walked to the cannon and began to skillfully adjust the cannon's position.

Then he took out a shell from the shell box next to him and put it steadily into the barrel.

When everything was ready, Li Dazhu pulled the trigger in his hand.

There was a loud "bang" and the infantry gun made a deafening sound, with smoke filling the muzzle.

A 75mm shell, like an angry fire dragon, flew straight towards the Japanese artillery tower.

The shells made a sharp whistling sound as they flew through the sky, and the sound seemed to tear the air apart.

When the Japanese soldiers in the artillery tower heard this unexpected noise, they immediately panicked.

The Japanese squad leader's face changed and he shouted loudly:

"Take cover! Get out of the way! The enemy is firing!"

However, the space in the artillery tower was limited, and the Japanese soldiers and traitors fled in panic, but had nowhere to hide.

They could only pray in their hearts that the power of the shell was not enough to blow through the solid walls of the artillery tower.

The shells cut through the sky like lightning and reached the Japanese artillery tower in just a few seconds.

With a deafening explosion, the shell slammed hard into the wall of the turret. The power was so great that it instantly blew a huge hole in the solid wall.

The Japanese soldiers in the artillery tower were terrified, and two of them were unfortunately affected by the explosion and died on the spot.

The rest of the Japanese soldiers and the second Japanese soldiers were frightened out of their wits by this sudden attack. They looked at the scene in disbelief, their hearts filled with fear.

They never thought that the Eighth Route Army's artillery could so easily penetrate the sturdy artillery towers that they were so proud of.

You know, the Japanese's artillery towers are generally carefully designed and reinforced, and it is difficult to shake them even with mortars.

However, the artillery of the Eighth Route Army easily tore a hole in the artillery tower.

The Japanese soldiers and the traitors looked at each other, their hearts filled with despair.

They originally thought that the Eighth Route Army guerrillas in front of them were just a mob and posed no threat to the artillery tower.

However, the scene before them made them realize that the Eighth Route Army was not as vulnerable as they had imagined.

Even most of the Eighth Route Army's main forces were usually equipped with only a small number of mortars.

Artillery such as infantry guns and mountain guns are only equipped with units at the division and brigade level.

However, the Eighth Route Army team in front of them had such powerful firepower that they couldn't help but complain in their hearts: "Fuck, I'm just a small artillery tower here, how can it bother you? Is it necessary to mobilize such a big battle? Even the cannons are brought here."

On the top of the hill, Gaoda witnessed with his own eyes a big hole blown out of the Japanese artillery tower by Li Dazhu's artillery shell.

A happy smile appeared on his face.

"Dazhu, good job! Great job! Keep bombing! Blast the Japanese's artillery tower into ruins, leaving them nowhere to hide!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Li Dazhu responded, quickly took out another shell from the shell box next to him, and loaded it skillfully.

"boom!"

Another deafening cannon shot rang out.

This shell once again accurately hit the Japanese artillery tower, instantly creating a huge hole.

The violent explosion caused by the shell blew two or three Japanese soldiers in the artillery tower into a bloody mess and killed them on the spot.

The remaining Japanese soldiers in the artillery tower were terrified when they saw this.

They knew that staying in the artillery tower would mean death, so they fled from the ruins in an attempt to find a chance of survival.

However, their escape was not so smooth.

Outside the Japanese artillery tower, a company of soldiers were already on full alert.

When they saw the Japanese soldiers pouring out of the artillery tower, they immediately launched a fierce attack.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Da da da!"

The soldiers of the first company opened fire at full force and killed the fleeing Japanese devils one by one.

In this fierce battle, the third shell arrived as expected.

It was like a huge meteorite, smashing hard on the Japanese artillery tower.

"Boom!"

The violent explosion echoed in the turret, and the entire turret collapsed in the explosion, turning into ruins.

It took only three shells from the Type 39 infantry gun to completely destroy the artillery tower that the Japanese thought was indestructible.

The crowd on the hill witnessed this feat and cheered and applauded.

Li Dazhu excitedly reported to Gaoda: "Captain, we succeeded! The infantry guns produced by our Ping An Arsenal are several times more powerful than the Japanese Type 92 infantry guns!"

Li Dakang also said excitedly: "Yes, Captain, this is simply a miracle! Our own cannons only used three shots to raze the Japanese artillery tower to the ground. This power is really amazing!"

Captain Gaoda nodded with satisfaction, turned around and said to Meng Debiao next to him:

"Director Meng, the test firing of the Type 39 infantry gun was a perfect success, and we are all very satisfied with its power.

Next, the arsenal must go all out to produce six guns for me first."

Meng Debiao answered without hesitation:

"Yes, Captain! I promise to complete the task and produce more Type 39 infantry guns as soon as possible to increase the combat effectiveness of our county brigade!"
