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

Li Dazhu held the telescope tightly and stared into the distance.

When he saw the Japanese army marching into the carefully arranged ambush circle.

He shouted without hesitation: "All gunners, listen up! The Japanese have entered our ambush circle. Now, fire the poison gas bombs immediately!"

The artillery soldiers moved upon hearing the sound, and quickly took out poison gas bombs from the boxes beside them.

Carefully place the shell into the barrel.

As the shell slides into the barrel,

There was a crisp "clang" sound, followed by a deafening rumble of cannon fire.

"Dong dong dong dong..."

More than a dozen shells flew out of the gun like a tiger, drawing graceful arcs in the air, carrying deadly poison gas, and flew straight over the heads of the Japanese army.

The gunners did not stop their actions. They quickly took out the second shell from the box next to them and continued to fire at the Japanese troops.

The Japanese troops marching on the road were originally maintaining an orderly pace.

But suddenly, there was a sharp whistling sound of artillery shells in the sky.

The sudden noise made all the Japanese soldiers' faces change instantly. They looked up at the sky in astonishment and heard the sound of a large number of artillery shells flying.

"There's an ambush!"

"Scatter quickly, the enemy is firing!"

The Japanese soldiers fled in panic on the road, looking for shelter.

They were in a panic, fearing that they would become the target of the shells falling from the sky.

"Baga Yalu! How dare the Eighth Route Army ambush us? Warriors of the Empire, destroy them all!"

The Japanese captain shouted angrily, trying to stabilize the chaos in the team.

However, while all the Japs were looking for cover, the shells had already landed in their ranks.

But these shells did not make a deafening explosion, but fell quietly to the ground, emitting bursts of thick white smoke.

This made all the Japanese soldiers feel very strange, and they looked at these unexploded shells curiously.

The Japanese captain Hirano was also very confused by this scene.

However, just when they were feeling strange, some of the Japanese soldiers suddenly began to show abnormal reactions.

They foamed at the mouth, their bodies convulsed, and then they fell to the ground in agony.

These fallen soldiers were soon discovered by others, and the entire team fell into panic.

This sudden scene shocked all the Japanese devils.

Their eyes widened, their faces filled with horror and disbelief.

As the commander, Hirano immediately realized the seriousness of the situation and roared angrily:

"Damn, this is a poison gas bomb!"

"The Eighth Route Army has poison gas bombs! Everyone, cover your noses with wet cloths immediately!"

When the Japanese heard the three words "poison gas bomb", fear instantly rose in their hearts.

They never imagined that they would suffer such a fatal attack.

They have always been the perpetrators of poison gas bombs and never thought that one day they would become victims.

The Japanese soldiers hurriedly took off their clothes, wet them with water from the kettle, and then covered their noses and mouths tightly.

The Japanese soldiers were generally equipped with gas masks, but the Japanese did not carry them because they found it troublesome.

They thought the Chinese army would not use poison gas bombs to attack, so they did not carry gas masks.

At this moment, they realized their underestimation of the enemy and their stupidity.

At the artillery position, the soldiers quickly operated the mortars, and poison gas bombs roared out from the barrels, cutting through the sky and heading straight for the Japanese army.

In just four or five minutes, all the poison gas bombs they carried accurately hit the Japanese troops.

Although the Japanese reacted quickly and covered their mouths and noses with wet cloth, this crude protection was far inferior to professional gas masks.

Soon, a large number of Japanese soldiers began to show symptoms of poisoning. Their faces turned pale, their bodies trembled, and some even rolled on the ground in pain.

When the smoke from the poison gas bombs gradually dissipated, the soldiers saw that the road below the sand slope was in a mess.

A large number of Japanese soldiers fell to the ground, twitching and struggling, but unable to escape the terrible poison.

This wave of poison gas bomb attacks reduced the combat effectiveness of the Japanese soldiers by half, and nearly six or seven hundred Japanese soldiers had lost their combat capability.

When the Japanese captain Hirano saw this scene, he was so angry that he almost exploded.

He didn't expect that the enemy on the opposite side would use their own poison gas bombs to attack them.

A Japanese squadron leader came running over.

"Captain, the enemy used poison gas bombs on us. Now the soldiers are seriously poisoned. We have lost more than half of our combat effectiveness!"

When Hirano heard the news, he became even more furious.

"Bagayalu! Pass my order, immediately prepare the troops to organize an attack! I will make the county brigade pay the price!"

Even though his troops had suffered heavy losses, he still firmly believed that with the remaining seven or eight hundred men, they would be able to destroy the county brigade.

The remaining Japanese soldiers began to assemble quickly under the urgent call of the Japanese squadron leader.

Although they were caught off guard by the gas bomb attack, their military instincts enabled them to quickly restore order.

At the artillery position, Li Dazhu looked at the empty boxes of poison gas bombs and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He turned his gaze to the soldiers beside him and shouted loudly:

"Brothers, our poison gas bombs have been successful. Now it's time for us to really show our prowess! All cannons, fire freely!"

The soldiers of the artillery company became excited instantly after hearing Li Dazhu's order.

They skillfully operated the cannons, loaded ammunition, and prepared to launch a more fierce attack on the enemy.

Following Li Dazhu's order.

The artillery company's more than 10 Type 39 infantry guns and 6 120mm mortars opened fire at the same time.

The entire artillery position was filled with smoke and the sound of artillery was deafening.

Dozens or even hundreds of shells landed accurately into the Japanese army's ranks.

The shells exploded in the Japanese army's ranks, making a deafening sound.

A large number of Japanese soldiers were killed in the explosion, their bodies were blown to pieces and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Especially the 120mm mortar, its power is even more amazing.

With one shot, a huge crater was directly created on the ground, and the surrounding Japanese soldiers were blown to pieces. Even the shock wave was enough to blow away the enemies in the distance.

The Japanese captain Hirano witnessed all this and was so shocked that he could hardly believe his eyes.

He could never have imagined that the county brigade had so many cannons and such fierce firepower.

At this moment, he began to doubt his life.

Li Yunlong, who was on Shazipo, saw this scene.

"This is what fighting is all about! It's so damn exciting! I didn't expect that Lao Li would have so many cannons when fighting the Japs!"

The soldiers of the county brigade felt extremely happy when they saw the Japanese fleeing in all directions under the bombardment of artillery fire.
