Chapter 657: Almost the entire army is dispatched
Hami melon gritted his teeth in anger.
That bastard Yuan Shuai mobilized almost all the troops in Zhacheng for a base on the Emerald River.
If the remaining people in Zhacheng mutinied, the Zhacheng they had fought so hard to capture would be handed over to others.
Not only that, once the Japanese launched a large-scale encirclement and suppression campaign against them, they would have no place to escape or hide.
But there is no other way now. They can only fight hard and try to defeat these devils and puppet troops before dawn, and then arrange people to enter the city first to stabilize the fortress of Zhacheng.
As soon as Hu Dacai arrived, he immediately contacted Yuan Shuai in Cantonese.
Although the Japanese signalmen eavesdropped on the message, the translator had no way of translating it.
Even though some of the Japanese translators could speak English, and there was even a local traitor who helped them translate, no translator could understand Cantonese.
At the same time, the Japanese captain had already led his men to approach the Emerald River base position.
At Marshal Yuan's command, mortars, infantry guns and 75 field guns immediately launched a frenzied bombardment of the Japanese.
The shells landed and exploded among the Japanese and puppet troops.
The Japanese and puppet troops were bombed and cried for their parents.
"Damn it! They have taken over the Emerald Base. Notify the artillery to open fire at full force. Tanks and infantry must charge forward quickly!"
The order was given and the 75mm field gun and 105mm howitzer on the car trailer were quickly removed.
Then 12 75mm field guns and 12 105mm howitzers launched crazy air bombings into the Emerald River base.
However, it was dark and the Japanese did not know the location of the artillery positions in the Emerald River.
They simply used artillery fire to extend forward more than a kilometer in front of their own team to ensure that their infantry and tanks could advance quickly.
Looking at the explosion of the artillery shells extending over.
The captured soldiers at the front position were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were sweating profusely.
"Concealed and concealed!"
The prisoner battalion commander shouted loudly.
All the captured soldiers quickly hid in the trenches and dared not show their heads.
Some shells landed and exploded outside the trenches.
Some shells exploded on the reverse slope of the trench.
Many puppet soldiers were killed by artillery shells.
Looking at this scene, the allied forces in the rear position were also frightened.
Because the position in front did not have strong fortifications, it was originally intended by the Japanese to be a grave for the puppet army.
But now, it has become a grave for captured soldiers.
But they had no other choice now but to let these people serve as cannon fodder in the front, making the Japanese mistakenly believe that they had succeeded and then continue to advance quickly.
Sure enough, the Japanese infantry and tanks, under the cover of artillery, rushed forward quickly.
However, all these people were crowded on the road and in the woods on both sides of the road.
What the Japanese puppet army didn't expect was that the Japanese had already ambushed many minefields in the woods on both sides of the road to prevent the people from Zhacheng from attacking.
And now, these Japanese puppet troops came to attack, and after entering the minefield, they stepped on and detonated mines and booby traps one after another.
There were constant explosions in the woods on both sides of the road.
"Bagayalu, keep going, keep going!"
The Japanese captain kept shouting loudly, urging the team to move forward quickly.
Because he saw the body fragments that were blown to pieces in the explosion.
In his opinion, the defense line of the Emerald River position was under the coverage of his artillery fire. As long as he continued to cover this position with artillery fire, he could cover the rapid advance of the tanks and infantry and capture this position in one fell swoop.
But the artillery in the Emerald River was also bombarding the Japanese infantry and tanks.
The Japanese infantry and tanks also suffered heavy casualties as they advanced.
The Japanese infantry and tanks rushed to the captured soldiers' position.
The captured soldiers did not dare to shoot.
I was just hiding in the trench, shaking with fear and sweating profusely.
"Damn, these bastards, anti-aircraft guns, fired at the Japanese tanks!"
Hu Dacai gritted his teeth and cursed angrily, and immediately ordered the anti-aircraft guns on the top of the two turrets at the gate to fire at the Japanese tanks.
At this time, the Japanese tanks were still more than 2,000 meters away from them.
Anti-aircraft guns may not be able to penetrate the iron plates of Japanese tanks, but they can kill the Japanese puppet troops next to the tanks.
At once, the two anti-aircraft guns fired rapidly.
The anti-aircraft guns fired from a high position.
Sure enough, many infantrymen around the tanks were beaten to pieces by anti-aircraft guns.
Some anti-aircraft guns hit the tank's iron plate.
Although the iron plate was not penetrated, the tanks were all dented.
The Japanese soldiers in the tanks heard the sound of the shells hitting each other, and they were so scared that their faces turned pale and cold sweats broke out.
"Bagayalu, Bagayalu! Fire, fire!"
The Japanese tanks had also opened fire, and were bombarding in the direction of the artillery tower.
Unfortunately, the turret was at a high place, and their tank guns could not hit the turret at all. They just flew down and exploded not far in front of the turret.
And these places have strong fortifications.
The Confederates in these places suffered no casualties.
at the same time.
Hamigua had already seen the location of the Japanese 75 field guns and 105 howitzers, and quickly notified Hu Dacai.
All the brothers of the Black Wolf Army, except Hu Dacai, have entered the Emerald River Base.
So, this artillery observer is the British Army's Jesse's observer.
Although the content of the communication was quickly translated by the Japanese translator.
"Baga, they are going to bomb our artillery positions!"
"Notify the captain immediately and have the artillery position move quickly. Quick, quick!"
After the Japanese translator translated, he shouted loudly.
When the Japanese captain heard the news, he snorted disapprovingly.
"Don't worry, they only have 75mm field guns in Zhacheng, but no 105mm howitzers. The 75mm field guns can't hit our artillery positions at all!"
"Ju yi..."
Before he could finish his words, a series of artillery shells whizzed towards his artillery position.
"Bagayalo, it's a 105mm howitzer!"
Looking at the shells flying in the sky.
The Japanese captain was so angry that he gritted his teeth and roared.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
This time Jesse really went all out. He didn't even conduct a test fire, but instead fired six 105mm grenades at once.
因为之前哈密瓜在抢了鬼子的车队的时候，总共12辆车，其中6辆车后面挂着6门75野炮，但其中6辆车后面挂着的是6门105炮。
And what Jesse used this time were these six 6mm howitzers.
Although the first round of shells missed.
But it also scared the Japanese artillery into a cold sweat.
"Bakayalu, move quickly, move!"
The Japanese artillery battalion commander roared in anger.
The Japanese artillery quickly stopped the bombing and began to retract the support legs of the 105 guns one by one.
And at this time.
The second round of shells has already flown over.
After correcting the coordinates, six 6mm howitzers roared straight towards their artillery positions.
"Boom boom boom boom boom!"
Six shells landed accurately on the enemy's 105mm artillery position and exploded.
