Under Zhuniangling, the defensive position of the 373rd Regiment of the 63rd Division.

As mentioned earlier, Yan Jingguo, the commander of the 63rd Division, built three main groups based on the highway staircase arrangement, and built a total of three lines of defense, of which the 373rd Division was the last line of defense for the entire division.

At this moment, this last line of defense is about to collapse.

But it will take at least an hour before darkness is available.

At the critical moment of life and death, Yan Jingguo decided to lead the suicide squad to counterattack!

At the attack position, more than 200 suicide squads have been assembled. These more than 200 suicide squads, each with a steel helmet, a Bergman submachine gun, and eight grenades!

"Brothers!" Yan Jingguo's eyes swept across the faces of more than 200 suicide squads and said in a deep voice, "The 28th Army surrounded a corps of the Japanese in Xinchang. Whether they can destroy this corps of the Japanese depends on how long we can block the reinforcements of the Japanese in Zhuniangling!"

"Team Commander Tao sent a telegram saying that as long as our 63rd Division persisted until dawn tomorrow, they would have the confidence to kill the 54th infantry rebels of the Dog Rim!"

"How is it, do you have the confidence to persevere until dawn tomorrow?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" More than two hundred Sanxiang's children answered.

"Okay, I have a strong momentum!" Yan Jingguo pulled away the submachine gun and shouted sternly, "Then let me take back the lost position and drive the Japanese back!"

"Kill and kill!" The team members roared wildly.

Yan Jingguo took another move, and more than 200 suicide squadrons rushed forward like a flood breaking the dike, and then quickly passed through the defensive positions of friendly troops and launched a counterattack on the Japanese army.

Yan Jingguo, as a teacher, was also the leader and personally took the lead.

The Japanese army obviously did not expect that the National Army would launch such a counterattack at this time and be stunned.

After a moment of firefighting, the Japanese army was defeated and the National Death Squad successfully restored the third line of defense. However, before Yan Jingguo and the brothers of the Death Squad took a breath, the whistle of shells came from above their heads.

Immediately afterwards, rows of shells fell overwhelmed.

"Boom!" Then there was a continuous violent explosion, and the earth was shaking.

The Japanese army's retaliatory shelling lasted for more than a moment. After the shelling was over, the defensive positions of the 373rd Regiment were completely covered with smoke.

Yan Jingguo was almost buried alive.

When the guard dug Yan Jingguo out of the mound, he was no longer angry.

The medical soldier had artificial respiration for several minutes before Yan Jingguo finally recovered from his breath holding state. He took a deep breath greedily, and then his breathing finally recovered as before.

"Damn!" Yan Jingguo's first words after he woke up were swearing, "If you don't have artillery, you will suffer a loss! It would be great if we had an artillery regiment, even if we were just an artillery battalion!"

The medical soldier and several guards looked at each other and smiled bitterly, artillery?

...

Two kilometers west of the Teapot Lok, there is a mound.

Because it was already dark, the Japanese army opposite did not find anyone on the mound.

At this moment, the people lying on the mound, including Tao Liu, the commander of the 60th Division, and Zhong Guangren, the deputy commander of the Zhejiang East Coast Defense Corps, Bao Dafu, the commander of the Artillery Corps, and an observer of the Artillery Corps.

The observer set up the artillery team and began to measure the location and distance of the opposite Japanese position.

Zhong Guangren waited a little impatiently and asked, "Captain Bao, how about it? Has the measurement been done?"

"Don't be anxious when Deputy Commander Zhong." Bao Dafu frowned, "It's technical work to determine that Zhu Yuan is not a mistake, otherwise it would be a waste of shells and a big deal for the brothers of the Sixty-Second Division!"

"Yes, yes, we are not in a hurry." Tao Liu said quickly, "Team Leader Bao, you can test it slowly."

After saying that, Tao Liu turned around and glared at Zhong Guangren, and Zhong Guangren could only shut up his mouth.

After almost a moment, it was already dark, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief after observing my hands.

Bao Dafu said to Tao Liu: "Master Tao, the shooting of the elements has been calibrated, but before starting a large-scale artillery bombardment, a single shot test will be carried out."

Tao Liu nodded and said in a deep voice: "Then start the test shot."

"Yes!" Bao Dafu responded, then grabbed the telephone and shouted in a low voice, "All gun positions have paid attention, each gun position has paid attention, now calibrate the Count, now calibrate the Count!"

"The ruler, three thousand two hundred meters! Repeat, the ruler, three thousand two hundred meters!"

"The direction, one scale to the southeast, one scale to the east! Repeat, one scale to the southeast, one scale to the east!"

Accompanied by Baodav's command, the artillerymen of forty-eight mortars scattered within one kilometer behind the mound began to nervously calibrate the artillery to shoot the various elements.

By the way, the Artillery Regiment arrived in Xinchang at around 5 pm.

As soon as he arrived in Xinchang, Tao Liu asked the artillery regiment to come to Teapot Ao without stopping.

When we arrived at the Teapot, we quickly selected the back of the mound as the artillery position. Because the terrain here is relatively hidden, and the mound is blocked by the mound during the artillery attack, it is difficult for the Japanese artillery on the opposite side to determine their location and cannot determine their location. Even if the Japanese have the Qiwu Mountain Cannon and the 92 Infantry Cannon with a longer range, they cannot counterattack.

After a while, reports from various artillery positions came from the telephone.

"Report to the regiment headquarters, the No. 1 gun position is ready!"

"Report to the regiment headquarters, the No. 2 gun position is ready!"

...

"Report to the regiment headquarters, the No. 48 gun position is ready!"

Two minutes later, all the mortars of the Artillery Regiment were ready.

Bao Dafu shouted at the microphone: "No. 1 gun position, one test shot!"

The next moment, a "bang" sound immediately sounded behind the mound.

Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren looked back quickly and saw a faint red light rising from under a mound, followed by a sharp scream passing by overhead.

Hearing the scream, Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren turned around and looked towards Teapot Ao.

A few seconds later, a red light suddenly rose from the Japanese position in Chahuoao.

Seeing the sudden blooming red light, Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren couldn't help but shouted OK!

His grandma is a bear. After being shot by the Japanese, it is our turn to be shot by the Japanese!

The observer lying on the earthen soldiers observed the landing point of the shell through the artillery mirror, then recalculated it, and then reported the calculated parameters to Bao Dafu after a moment.

Bao Dafu re-reported the corrected shooting elements to each gun position.

Each shelling correction was just enough to shoot the elements, that is, cluster shelling was prepared.

Bao Dafu turned his head and said to Tao Liu again: "Teacher Tao, we are ready!"
Chapter completed!
