Violent explosions instantly sounded on the Japanese position, and the first to bear the brunt was the gentle slope in the southeast corner where the three tanks were located.

At this moment, the entire gentle slope was covered by the artillery fire of the Sichuan Army! The little Japanese here was blown up and turned upside down, with broken limbs and arms flying everywhere...

"Run, run!"

"Reverse, move back, get out of here quickly!"

Those tanks retreated hurriedly. Although the protective capability of the Type 97 medium tank has been greatly enhanced, it is only compared to other Japanese tanks. Not to mention the 105-caliber artillery shells, even the 37 anti-tank cannons can penetrate it.

His armor.

This kind of scumbag who was crushed even before Sherman dared to be exposed to the artillery fire of the Sichuan Army at this time, and they all fled back at full speed.

"boom!"

However, on this rugged slope, how could they survive the bombardment of artillery shells? A high-explosive grenade accurately hit one of the retreating tanks, causing the tank to immediately lie on the spot.

Although the muzzle velocity of the howitzer is not high and it cannot penetrate thick armor like armor-piercing projectiles, it is more than enough for this thin-skinned Type 97 tank. The huge explosion power turned the tank into a fireball, and the violent shock wave had already

The soldiers inside were shocked to death!

The other two tanks were so frightened when they saw this scene that the tank commander desperately urged the driver to increase the accelerator and get out of this ghost place.

"Hurry up, don't stop, they are going to run away, Krupp, let me bite those two tanks!"

At this moment, on the artillery position of the Sichuan Army Corps, four 105mm howitzers and a dozen 120mm mortars were pouring shells desperately towards the gentle slope on the opposite side. Except for the Krupp howitzers, only 120mm mortars could reach this range.

The other 92 infantry guns and 81 guns could only shoot to the Japanese riverside position, and could not pose a threat to the gentle slope.

But it was enough. Li Liansheng and Krupp, with dozens of more skilled artillerymen, were sweating profusely loading ammunition and firing.

The soldiers gritted their teeth. Although the high-intensity shooting made them very tired, everyone was holding their breath. They wanted to avenge those comrades who were desecrated by the Japanese!

"Bang!"

The howitzer let out a loud roar, and while Krupp called on the soldiers to quickly withdraw the ammunition, he pointed the sight over there again and calculated the data.

"Increase the pitch angle by one degree! Give me the shells!"

As Krupp took over the shell, his 200-kilogram body was now like a flexible monkey. He quickly loaded the grenade and propellant, then retreated to the back of the gun mount and forcefully opened the pull rope.

"Bang!" With a loud noise, the shell came out, drew an arc in the sky, and hit the rear of the tank hard. The violent explosion ignited the fuel tank behind the tank's butt, and the entire body instantly

Wrapped in flames!

The top cover of the tank was opened, and two firemen got out of it. They danced and screamed... but were soon blown to pieces by the falling shells.

"Okay, Krupp! Change the high-explosive bombs to incendiary bombs and bomb his son-of-a-bitch Jiang defense positions. I'll let them have a taste of barbecue!"

"I understand, Captain."

Seeing the last tank retreating down the gentle slope, artillery shells no longer posed a threat to it. Liao Mingyu made a prompt decision, changed direction and continued to shell the Japanese soldiers on the Takeuchi position.

"Target, the Japanese forward position. Concentrate all artillery and attack indiscriminately!"

Following his order, the soldiers immediately took action. All the artillery immediately adjusted their angles, and the black muzzles were aimed at the Japanese position on Nantianmen.

"Report to the leader, the angle adjustment is complete, please give instructions!" Li Liansheng shouted loudly.

"Fire! Kill them to death!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

…

Four 105mm howitzers, twelve 120mm mortars, and twelve 92mm infantry guns roared with revenge at the Japanese positions.

The entire Sichuan Army actually has more artillery than these, but the artillery is limited. During this period, Krupp and Li Liansheng continued to train them and they were able to train enough soldiers to operate these artillery.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..."

The dense artillery shells exploded with countless impact points on the Jaap position. Those Japanese soldiers who had no time to dodge were bombarded to the point of crying for their fathers and mothers.

The newly exchanged fh.sprgr.br. incendiary bombs came in handy at this time. The power of the 15-kilogram incendiary bomb explosion was not only reflected in the damage caused by shrapnel. Although the wax glue explosive did not burn as horribly as napalm bombs,

properties, but the adhesion is also quite good.

Countless little devils were splashed by the flames of the explosion. The inextinguishable fire burned their bodies fiercely at that time, and there was no other way except struggling desperately and screaming in pain.

There are still many trees on Nantianmen, which are all ignited by the scattered flames at this moment. The raging fire is like God's divine punishment, burning wantonly on this land.

In addition to being bombarded by artillery shells, the little Japanese also faced the invasion of wildfires. They were burned to death and burned countless times. This exciting scene made the Sichuan Army Corps members on the flag-offering slope extremely excited.

"Haha, good job!"

"Burn these bastards to death!"

"Captain, why don't you lead us and fight directly?"

…

The Sichuan Army's first full-scale firepower allowed the Japanese to finally appreciate their terrifying strength.

Takeuchi Renshan, who was hiding in the hole, had a gloomy face. He never expected that the strange force on the opposite side would have such fierce artillery fire.

"Where's our artillery? Counterattack immediately!"

"Captain, our artillery suffered heavy losses in the last artillery battle. There are only five 75mm field guns left that can fire. The other infantry guns don't have enough range." The staff officer next to him replied with sweating profusely.

"How can it be repaired? The supporting artillery brigade has not arrived yet, otherwise how could they be so arrogant!"

Takeuchi Renshan said angrily. His face was not bright. Just now he was talking to Fujiwara about his great plan in high spirits, but now he was slapped hard in the face by the enemy opposite. It was the kind of slap in the face in public.

"Open fire immediately to suppress the opponent's artillery fire! Otherwise, our defense line will be in danger!"

"Hey, I'll make arrangements right away."

Seeing the panic among the soldiers on the front line, Takeuchi Renshan was extremely worried.

Now the entire defense system has not been completed. If the Chinese army on the riverside attacks at this time, it will be dangerous. Maybe the entire defense line will collapse.

…

The scene in front of him made Liao Mingyu think a lot. He did not expect that the effect of the incendiary bomb would be so good.

This is a good opportunity. The Japs camp is in chaos now. If Yu Xiaoqing by the river can seize this opportunity and cross the river to attack, it is not impossible to rush to Nantianmen!

It's a pity that those grandchildren are destined to eat shit and cannot keep up with the hot stuff.

"Okay, stop the bombardment, Li Liansheng! Remove all the mortars and infantry artillery in front."

The shelling lasted for 10 minutes, and Liao Mingyu decisively issued a cease-fire order, not because of insufficient artillery shells, but because he knew that the Japanese counterattack was coming soon.

"Team leader, we still have artillery shells, let's continue blasting those bastards." Milong said in confusion. He didn't understand why the leader stopped attacking just after he gained the upper hand.

"Boom, sister, the kid's counterattack is coming, don't hold back. Everyone in the first battalion entered the position and hid in the individual trenches for me. No one is allowed to show up without my order!"

Under Liao Mingyu's order, the soldiers responded quickly. Li Liansheng commanded the artillerymen to push out the infantry artillery placed on the hilltop. Other soldiers also quickly jumped into the trenches and huddled in individual bunkers.

"call out……"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Chapter completed!
