Volume 1 Chapter 017 Annihilation
Before they could react, another series of artillery shells flew over. The shells kept falling, and their power was huge. Each shell caused considerable casualties to the puppet army, making the puppet soldiers cry for their parents.
Before the "Eighth Route Army" could get close, there was a burst of artillery fire.
It seems like the shells are free!
Many puppet soldiers were hit by dozens of shrapnel and were dancing mechanically on the spot. They fell to the ground with screams of pain and despair and died!
Colonel Zhang Zhaohui of the puppet army felt as if he was still dreaming.
The terrifying firepower and one-sided fighting of the Eighth Route Army shocked him so much!
Each person has a light machine gun, each squad has a heavy machine gun, and there are endless bullets.
Is this still the Eighth Route Army that would fire at most five shots before launching a charge?
Buddha! Am I still asleep? How come when I woke up, I felt that the world had changed?
It’s over, completely over. The Communist Army is about to swallow up our Eighth Brigade in one bite!
Under the merciless artillery fire, the Imperial Army inevitably panicked, screaming and at a loss.
Now artillery shells were thrown at the Imperial Army like they were free, bombing the puppet troops.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Chu Yunfei couldn't help but sigh.
Damn, it’s so enjoyable!
Enjoyable!
Faced with the bombardment of eight mortars from the 358th Regiment, the soldiers of the Imperial Army went from being stunned to being terrified. The puppet soldiers who were lucky enough not to be killed witnessed the power of the "Communist" artillery. They knew that they had become the most dangerous place. It was unknown who screamed and ran away first.
The surviving puppet soldiers fled the position with their hands covering their heads.
Chu Yunfei slowly stretched out his rifle with one eye closed, and used the other eye to look at the puppet army through the scope.
When he saw the puppet army brigade commander, he immediately pulled the trigger.
The bullet shot out from the muzzle, spinning rapidly and hitting the shoulder of the brigade commander of the Imperial Army.
Chu Yunfei is a sharpshooter, but he is not an original one after all.
It's already pretty good if you can shoot the enemy in the shoulder from two or three hundred meters away.
The puppet army brigade commander Zhang Zhaohui screamed and immediately fell to the ground.
Seeing that he couldn't kill the enemy with one shot, Chu Yunfei punched the ground in anger.
Damn it! I didn’t kill the enemy with one shot!
I will continue to practice hard in the future!
Zhang Zhaohui was shot in the shoulder. He covered his shoulder and shouted in fear: "Quick. Escort me to retreat! Damn it, where are the guards! Someone come. Come quickly!"
At this time, the puppet army brigade commander Zhang Zhaohui no longer dared to think about holding on. He just wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.
The Imperial Army was stunned by the mortars of the 358th Regiment at the very beginning.
When the puppet army commander Zhang Chengdong heard the brigade commander's shouting, he hurriedly got up and ran over to help the brigade commander up and escape together.
On the battlefield where bullets were flying, the puppet army commander Zhang Chengdong dared to get up. He was just like a firefly in the dark night, so bright and outstanding.
He hasn't even shouted a few words.
bump!
A bullet pierced his chest and the puppet soldier fell heavily to the ground.
Chu Yunfei saw it and shouted happily: "Finally killed an enemy!"
Chu Yunfei used a stone to carve a mark on the butt of the gun, then pulled the bolt and aimed at the next target.
Chu Yunfei is using the battlefield to hone his marksmanship.
The King of War - Artillery is still wreaking havoc.
After firing hundreds of shells, Chu Yunfei shouted distressedly, "Enough, enough, we have plowed the enemy's position three times. Save some for the next battle! After the artillery fire stops, the whole regiment will charge and kill all the Japanese devils!"
The gunfire finally stopped!
The road was in a mess, with the bodies of the Japanese soldiers everywhere. The battlefield was full of bodies that had been blown to pieces or beaten to pieces, with half arms and thighs and even heads that were smashed and bleeding and with brains everywhere.
Upon hearing the military order, the artillery company commander immediately stopped the shelling.
As soon as the artillery fire stopped, a loud military bugle call sounded.
"kill!"
Nearly 2,000 men from the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment crawled out of their ambush and charged towards the Imperial Army's positions.
Before anyone got close, the roar of a machine gun was heard.
Bullets from heavy and light machine guns swept over like water, knocking the Japanese soldiers to the ground with thuds.
Although the recoil of the mortar is not large, each time a shell is fired, it will cause the mortar to shift. Even if the mortar barrel may only move one centimeter or even a few millimeters, the shell will fly thousands of meters in the air, and under the influence of factors such as wind speed, humidity, and even the rotation of the earth, the shell will have a deviation of several meters or even more than ten meters after falling.
Therefore, on the battlefield, the chance of a shell hitting the same crater again was very small, and many veterans would jump into the crater at the first opportunity to avoid the bombardment.
Although hundreds of artillery shells were fired, nearly a thousand puppet soldiers still managed to hide in the artillery pits and survived.
As soon as the shelling ended, some of them took out guns and fired at the enemy rushing towards them with Type 99 rifles.
Seeing that the puppet army dared to fight back, the soldiers of the 358th Regiment were not polite at all.
The Czech light machine guns kept firing, and bullets suddenly swept over like raindrops.
Chu Yunfei lay on the ground, aimed at the Japanese machine gunner in the distance, and pulled the trigger.
With a bang, a Type 99 light machine gun fell silent temporarily.
Sun Ming was standing behind and also half-crouched and fired a shot.
A Japanese soldier who wanted to raise his Type 99 rifle again flew backwards.
The battalion commander of the first battalion, Wu Ziqiang, carried a light machine gun and started firing. A Japanese soldier who was about to stand up to throw a grenade was hit by more than a dozen bullets. His brain was bleeding and he fell straight down.
Bullets were fired in rows and light machine guns fired cross-fire, forming a deadly rain of bullets. The Japanese soldiers were pressed down by the rain of bullets and could not even lift their heads.
The Japanese are like ostriches, and it is useless for them to hide in the tunnels.
Hand grenades rained down on the enemy's position, killing or wounding one third of the surviving enemy soldiers in an instant.
The puppet army's defense line was torn apart in one breath, and the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment immediately rushed into the enemy's position like a flood.
The gap had been opened, and the soldiers of the 358th Regiment rushed over frantically. How could the Japanese invaders, who had less than a regiment's worth of soldiers, stop them?
The soldiers roared and rushed to the puppet army's position. They hated these traitors who were willing to be traitors and take advantage of the power of others.
The Japanese escaped the machine gun fire and looked at the howling Shanxi-Suiyuan Army rushing towards them in despair. Many of them held their rifles and tried to escape.
But the soldiers of the 358th Regiment would never let them have their way. Thousands of soldiers rushed over with joy when they saw the lucky survivors, like sharks smelling blood.
The 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment rushed forward in one breath and surrounded the Japanese soldiers who had not had time to escape.
Seeing the enemy holding a machine gun pointing at him, the Japanese puppet army brigade commander Zhang Zhaohui trembled all over, his expression was dull and his eyes were unfocused.
Obviously, he still hasn't recovered from the attack just now.
Not only the puppet brigade commander, but also the captured puppet soldiers were in a state of mental confusion.
How could these people be the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army?
Didn’t they say that the Communist Army was attacking the cavalry battalion?
How did it become the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army?
Those sons of bitches.
Can't you even tell the difference between the Communist Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army?
You are blind!
