Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "This place is not dangerous at all!"

"As long as you move, the battle at Songshankou begins, the Japanese's attention will be attracted to you, and I will be safe here!"

"So, after arriving at Songshankou, I must use all the mountain cannons, infantry cannons, mortars, all of them, and use the most powerful firepower and offensive to take down Songshankou..."

The ability of the regiment commander Wang Ping is obvious to all in the new regiment. His old subordinates were almost unconditionally convinced by his words.

So, as soon as Wang Ping finished speaking, the worry on Rongjun's face disappeared and he replied with a serious face: "Please rest assured, I will lead the troops to attack Songshankou and take Songshankou!"

At the Japanese garrison at Songshankou, there was originally only one squadron of Japanese garrisons. Based on the terrain, a stronghold was built on the high ground next to the highway. With the central artillery tower as the center, six bunkers were built around, with a machine gun and a squad of Japanese garrisons. Each bunker was equipped with a machine gun and a squad of Japanese garrisons, blocking the road like a iron wall.

After a brigade of infantry soldiers came, this little position was definitely not enough.

For other Eighth Route Army, bunkers and artillery towers are unbreakable walls.

But in front of Xinyituan, you cannot gain much advantage.

They are equipped with mortars, infantry cannons, and mountain cannons! In front of these cannons, the indestructible bunkers and artillery towers cannot last long!

The captain of the brigade, Master Shengyun, was very aware of this situation. He arrived here at 6 o'clock in the afternoon and ordered the troops to build fortifications and defense lines around the stronghold based on the terrain.

At around twelve o'clock in the evening, two trenches outside the stronghold had been completed, and the troops were strengthening the fortifications with logs and sandbags.

"Bang~"

Suddenly, a gunshot came from several kilometers away.

Although the distance was very far and the gunshots were heard in slightest, Master Shengyun could still hear them clearly.

He frowned and made a judgment: "It was the gunshot of the Empire's Type 38 rifle. That location happened to be the outermost guard post we arranged. It must be the Eighth Route Army in the encirclement that was coming, and the guard post fired a gun to us to warn us!"

Speaking of this, Master Shengyun's solemn expression became excited and shouted happily.

"This is really the favor of God Amaterasu. The Eighth Route Army actually chose us to break through!"

"We have a terrain here. Even if they are equipped with a large number of artillery, they will not be able to take our position before dawn!"

"Not to say anything else, we just built the two lines of defense outside the stronghold to make the Eighth Route Army who came over feel disappointed!"

"Order the first squadron and the second squadron to stop and rest immediately, replenish their energy, and prepare for combat... The third and fourth squadrons should hurry up and strengthen the fortifications!"

"Heavy machine guns and mortars are directly strengthened to each squadron!"

"Infantry artillery, the division strengthened the mountain artillery to us and arranged it in the stronghold, responsible for providing long-range artillery fire support to the troops!"

"My idea is very simple. Use the advantageous terrain here and persist until dawn to severely damage our Eighth Route Army. After dawn, the air force will come and carry out a devastating air strike on the Eighth Route Army that attacked us!"

"At that time, the military achievements of killing the Eighth Route Army will belong to our brigade!"

In less than twenty minutes, a string of truck headlights entered the view of Master Shengyun.

"No wonder the Eighth Route Army came so fast. It turned out that it was transporting troops with cars! The troops were ready for combat, and the Eighth Route Army came here!"

Soon, two flares were lifted off, and two lines of defense outside the stronghold were also exposed.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Before Master Shengyun could react, the scream of shells passing through the sky rang over the battlefield, and then a violent explosion occurred on the position!

"It's a mortar, six mortars are bombarding our position!" Master Shengyun judged with a frown.

The mortars equipped by the two squadrons in the position immediately began to counterattack. The shells on both sides came and went, wanting to kill the other side and then dominate the entire battlefield.

At this moment, two infantry cannons equipped by the Fourth Battalion fired.

With the advantage of range, the two infantry cannons were directly arranged outside the limited range of the mortar, staring at the Japanese artillery positions.

An infantry artillery shell with greater power than a mortar shell would be blown down if a shell was smashed down, and all the Japanese within a radius of more than ten meters would be blown up, with heavy casualties.

If the shells hit the mortar directly and exploded near the mortar, the huge power instantly blows the mortar into scrap iron.

"Sir, report on the front line that the infantry cannon is outside the range of the mortar. Please use mountain cannons to kill their infantry cannons!" The adjutant rushed to Grandmaster Shengyun and reported.

Major Shengyun, who had been witnessing the entire battlefield, also frowned.

"The infantry cannon poses a great threat to us!"

"Order the infantry artillery team to counterattack immediately and kill those two infantry artillery for me!"

The adjutant next to him immediately reminded: "Sir, should you let the mountain cannon squadron fire directly? The mountain cannon is more powerful and has a numerical advantage. You only need a few rounds of volleys to kill these two infantry cannons!"

"No~" Major Shengyun shook his head and replied.

"Until the Eighth Route Army exposed all its trump cards, the trump cards in our hands could not be exposed either."

The adjutant immediately reacted: "I understand! Sir, do you mean that there are artillery on the opposite side of the Eighth Route Army?"

Master Shengyun shook his head and replied: "I don't know if there are any other artillery, but the mountain artillery squadron is our last trump card to defend Songshankou. We must not move until the critical moment..."

Soon, the two infantry cannons arranged by the Japanese invaders fired.

Just like before, Master Shengyun continued to hold up his telescope and stare at the battlefield with every move.

“Woo woo woo woo…”

A string of harsh whistles sounded through the air, causing Master Shengyun's face to change suddenly. His hands holding the telescope could not help but tremble, and he almost threw the telescope to the ground!

"It's mountain cannons. The Eighth Route Army also has mountain cannons, and it has more mountain cannons than us!" The adjutant whose face turned pale subconsciously shouted.

"Boom boom boom boom~"

Before he could finish his words, a violent explosion rang out at the stronghold. The dark stronghold was instantly illuminated by six balls of fireballs rising.

"The Eighth Route Army has indeed trump cards. There are six mountain cannons, two more than us... But I believe that our mountain cannon squadron can definitely kill their artillery, captain, should the mountain cannon squadron fight back immediately!"

"Counterattack, fight back now, and kill all the artillery exposed by the new regiment at all costs!"

After the order was issued, Master Shengyun's face showed a look of lingering fear, and then said, "Fortunately, I was cautious and kept a hand. Otherwise, the Eighth Route Army's six mountain cannons were bombarded by our four mountain cannons. Once the Eighth Route Army's artillery unit won, in front of the mountain cannons, the fortifications we worked hard to build could not withstand the bombing at all!"
