Bright Sword: From Soldier to Brigade Commander

woo woo woo woo.

"Oh no, the enemy is attacking, let's hide quickly!" The Japanese officers shouted frantically and were anxious.

It's already too late.

In a completely unlikely place, they were attacked by surprise by the Chinese army!

The Japanese army was never afraid of approaching the Chinese army, no matter if it was the Eighth Route Army, the National Army, or any other army, because of the firepower problem.

The Eighth Route Army had almost no artillery. If they could seize a battalion artillery piece or a 70mm infantry gun from the Japanese army, they would treat it as a treasure and be extremely happy.

Although the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the troops directly under the National Government also had a lot of artillery, they were far inferior to the Japanese army in terms of quantity and performance. After a long period of fighting, the National Government Army's artillery became less and less. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the aid from North America and Britain was mainly strengthened in the Burmese battlefield area. The firepower of the National Army's domestic troops, especially in North China, was also extremely poor.

The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army did have hundreds of mountain cannons of their own manufacture, but the problem was that they did not dare to attack or take risks. Their commander-in-chief, the chairman, was a stingy man and was reluctant to spend his family fortune.

The Japanese troops marched at a rapid speed and approached within 3000 meters, thinking they were absolutely safe.

Su Fei concentrated the mountain artillery in three directions, plus the mountain artillery of the reserve, a total of three mountain artillery battalions, each with 9 guns, plus his own 5 guns, a total of 32 guns, covering the Japanese army.

The maximum range is 6500 meters.

Not only that, 15 of the latest Japanese 81mm and 90mm mortars with a maximum range of 3800 meters also participated in the battle.

In an instant, there was a crackling sound and hundreds of shells were thrown over there.

The Japanese infantry battalion was almost wiped out.

The battalion commander, the battalion commander, and several squadron leaders were all blown to pieces.

No more than 150 Japanese soldiers were able to escape, most of whom were wounded.

After the bombing, the nearby scouts quickly reported the situation. Su Fei immediately mobilized more than 100 cavalrymen and rushed over to clean up the battlefield.

A squadron of Japanese follow-up troops arrived, but were hesitant and did not dare to approach.

When Su Fei's cavalry arrived, the Japanese army launched an attack cunningly.

attack?

The nearby scouts secretly reported the situation, and a regiment to the west of Su Fei's troops immediately bombarded the enemy with artillery fire. With more than 30 shells, more than half of the Japanese troops were killed or wounded, and they fled in a hurry.

More than 100 cavalrymen seized the main weapons and ammunition of a Japanese infantry battalion. There were too many things, much more than those destroyed by the bombing, so they could only take the good ones.

2 infantry guns, 15 mortars, 40 machine guns, 38 grenade launchers, and a large amount of ammunition.

They had no choice but to take their things away and call for reinforcements.

Su Fei sent the captured Japanese truck convoy over and finally completed the cleanup of the battlefield.

The spoils were so large that all the equipment of a Japanese infantry battalion fell into their hands.

Su Fei's troops dispatched more guerrillas to participate in reconnaissance and become the eyes of the artillery.

The fighting spirit of the military and civilians is even higher.

The areas around the county were measured and marked, and the feedback was given to the artillery positions.

This is a very good pre-calibration of the shooting parameters.

Finally, a large number of women and elderly people took the initiative to go out of the city to scout the enemy and guide the targets for the artillery.

More Japanese troops arrived, and this time they were much smarter and stopped at 4500 meters.

Send cavalry for reconnaissance.

The fierce artillery fire just now shocked them.

I thought that the place 9 miles away from the county town should be safe. The artillery technology of the Chinese army is far inferior to that of the Japanese army.

They couldn't imagine that the Chinese army could hit such a far place.

When the Japanese soldiers who had managed to escape back to the front line reported the brutal firepower of the Chinese army, their infantry battalion commander also became alert and ordered the troops to be divided into three groups to avoid being wiped out by the Chinese army.

The Japanese troops quickly dispersed and hid in many places.

However, they were suddenly discovered by Chinese military sentry scouts.

A walkie-talkie immediately reported to the city.

In the artillery battalion on the western front, nine mountain guns were quickly positioned and began test firing.

Investigators observed the results and pointed out the gaps.

After three test firings, it finally aimed at a Japanese military encampment.

The bombardment lasted for a minute.

90 mountain artillery shells covered two Japanese infantry squadrons, killing more than 60 Japanese soldiers on the spot, killing more than 170, seriously injuring more than 60, and slightly injuring more than 40.

There was hardly a single intact soldier.

Their weapons and ammunition were scattered over a large area.

The blood dyed the entire ground red.

The wounded were lying on the ground, squirming and crying.

The Japanese army was paralyzed.

This is not finished.

The scouts continued to direct the artillery fire, successively covering the other two groups of Japanese troops.

This Japanese infantry battalion was wiped out again.

No more than 100 Japanese soldiers were able to escape.

As a result, when the artillery fire stopped, the scouts hiding and wandering around, including men, women, young and old, rushed forward to snatch the Japanese army's weapons and ammunition, and quickly robbed the enemy of all their weapons and supplies.

Some women carried five rifles on their backs and used the devil's clothes to pocket more than a dozen boxes of ammunition!

Hardworking and persevering!

Some people also stole the Japanese army's horses.

But most of the military horses were injured and fell to the ground. They dragged them forcibly, or simply chopped them in half and dragged them away with ropes!

Meat, horse meat is so delicious!

I haven't eaten meat in half a year. Ahhhh, it smells so good.

The few Japanese cavalry reconnaissance troops were frightened and fled in haste.

The Japanese rapid troops came, but did not dare to approach the county town within 6000 meters!

12 miles.

Colonel Kuroki, commander of the 139th Regiment, personally rushed to the front line to observe. Through the telescope, he saw a large area of ​​corpses and blood.

His entire infantry battalion was wiped out. All together, only a little more than a squadron, 200 people, were able to escape!

2200 people.

He was so sad and angry that he screamed, vomited blood and fainted.

The chief of staff took over command and ordered the troops to stop advancing. They immediately dug trenches and dispersed.

late!

The Su Fei army scouts who were wandering around and hiding nearby were dispatched to report immediately if they discovered the enemy.

Although it was far away, Su Fei also asked to try. This kind of artillery coverage was too effective.

In order to ensure the effect, Su Fei also sent three captured Japanese walkie-talkies.

The Japanese army thought they were safe. It was so far away, 6000 meters, that they couldn't even see it with the naked eye. Even if Su Fei's army bombed them with artillery fire, what could they do?

Isn't it just a random fight?

They waited for an opportunity to report the situation to their superior brigade commander.

"Please send planes to bomb us. The Chinese army's artillery fire is too fierce!"

Before the Japanese planes took off, Su Fei's troops' artillery fire had already reached their heads.

Under guidance, more than 20 mountain cannons launched a massive bombardment on the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 139th Regiment of the Japanese Army and the 1500-man troops of the regiment headquarters.

The captured infantry guns and mortars that were dragged halfway also bombarded the Japanese army.

After ten minutes of bombing and more than 600 artillery shells consumed, the main force of the Japanese 139th Regiment was completely covered by artillery fire and rolled around in pain.

When the artillery fire stopped, the Japanese army was littered with corpses and wounded soldiers.
