Zhaojiayu back mountain.

Provisional headquarters of the Second Independent Regiment.

The commander of the reconnaissance battalion, Wang Shugen, suddenly rushed in from outside, saluted Xu Hailang and reported: "Deputy commander, the commander just sent a telegram, saying that they have arrived in Pingtou Town, and it will take about 40 minutes.

You can reach Zhaojiayu."

After a pause, Wang Shugen seemed to have thought of something, and then said: "In addition, according to the scout's report, a main force of friendly forces is also on the way, and they are still in front of the regiment commander and they will arrive in 20 minutes at most.

Zhaojiayu.”

Hearing this, Xu Hailang couldn't help but be startled: "What? There is a main force of friendly forces on the way, and it is still in front of the regiment leader and the others?"

"Yes!" Wang Shugen nodded and added: "Since it is night, we still don't know the identity of the main force of this friendly force."

Xu Hailang thought for a while and said: "If nothing else happens, it should be the New Regiment, or the Independent Regiment, or the New Second Regiment."

Wang Shugen added: "The total strength of this friendly army is nearly ten thousand."

Xu Hailang was shocked again: "What? The total strength of this friendly army is nearly ten thousand? It seems that they are not one regiment, but two regiments, or even three regiments."

Wang Shugen: "Then what should we do now?"

Xu Hailang: "The old regiment leader and others must have heard the news and prepared to come over to share the meat. We can't delay it any longer.

How are the preparations of each battalion?"

The reason why Xu Hailang dared to launch an attack in advance was not because he thought that the incoming Japanese and puppet troops could be completely wiped out with the strength of Zhaojia'ao alone.

It's because this friendly force will arrive in 20 minutes at the latest. By then, combined with this friendly force, we can also destroy the incoming Japanese and puppet troops.

What's more, the main force of the group will arrive in another 40 minutes.

Moreover, since the Second Independent Regiment took action in advance and the friendly forces were only here to clean up the mess, the Second Independent Regiment could take the initiative when it came to dividing the spoils.

Wang Shugen said: "The Japanese artillery position has been locked! In addition, the artillery battalion is also ready. The first and second battalions have moved to the left and right wings of the Japanese, ready to take action at any time!"

"very good!"

Xu Hailang nodded heavily and immediately issued an order: "Order the artillery battalion to launch a bombardment immediately!"

"yes!"

The correspondent next to him agreed with a bang, then picked up the phone and conveyed the order to the artillery battalion.

…

The screen panned to the Japanese artillery position.

Shimokawa Hide has already conveyed the order of the brigade commander Naoomi Hattori to the artillery brigade, and the Japanese artillery is preparing to launch illumination bombs to provide guidance for the subsequent artillery bombardment.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, several flares suddenly flew rapidly from the front, reached above their heads, and then slowly landed on the ground.

The dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire night sky as if it were daytime.

The Japanese attack position was suddenly exposed to the light.

"Baga! What's going on? Why did China Tubal Road launch flares? What are they going to do?"

Shimokawa Hide, and even Naoomi Hattori couldn't help but look confused, and had an ominous premonition in their hearts.

Sure enough, almost in the next instant, grenades dragged their eye-catching tail flames through the night sky and flew towards them.

"No! This is China's artillery counterattack!"

The artillery shells flew very fast, flying over a distance of nearly 2,000 meters in just three or four seconds, and landed on the Japanese artillery positions one after another.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom, boom! -"

The artillery battalion of the Second Independent Regiment has dozens of artillery pieces of various calibers. It is said to be an artillery battalion, and its firepower scale has exceeded that of an ordinary artillery regiment.

At this time, the firepower was fully activated, and the Japanese artillery positions were suddenly exploded into flames and smoke was everywhere. Many Japanese artillerymen and the artillery in front of them were blasted away by the shock wave, and they were directly decomposed in the air.

Various broken limbs, internal organs, and artillery parts were scattered everywhere.

Some of the stray bullets also landed on the ammunition boxes. After the explosion, the ammunition boxes exploded, and more powerful explosions were heard.

In just one salvo, most of the Japanese artillerymen were killed or wounded. At least hundreds of Japanese artillerymen were lying on the ground, struggling and howling in pain.

Most of its artillery was also destroyed, and its combat effectiveness was basically lost.

Immediately afterwards, the artillery battalion launched a second and even a third round of volleys, extending its firepower to the Japanese attack positions.

…

Two kilometers southeast of Zhaojia'ao.

Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Kong Jie looked in the direction of the red Zhaojia'ao and couldn't help but frown.

Kong Jie said: "This time the bombardment is at least twice as fierce as the last time. Can the Second Independent Regiment withstand it?"

Li Yunlong: "Is there a possibility that this bombing was caused by the Second Independent Regiment? You know, Wang Chengzhu has won so many battles, and the artillery captured by him can at least equip an artillery regiment."

When I thought about it, Wang Chengzhu said that the independent battalion had grown stronger, and the new regiment's combat effectiveness had also grown. Then, he did not ask Wang Chengzhu to hand over too many artillery pieces.

Li Yunlong felt regretful for a while, and his heart was bleeding!

Otherwise, how could the new regiment now only have one artillery company?

Although some regiments of other Eighth Route Army units did not even have artillery platoons or even a mortar.

But one has to look higher, right?

If Li Yunlong is given another chance, no matter how eloquent Wang Chengzhu is, he will definitely take away at least half of the opponent's artillery.

After listening to Li Yunlong's analysis, Ding Wei nodded and said: "Well, I deduce that this time it should be the shelling of the Second Independent Regiment.

You must know that Hattori Naoomi's attack this time is a surprise attack, so he must be lightly armed. Even if he carries artillery, he will only carry small-caliber mortars, not even the Type 92 infantry cannon."

"And if you listen to what's going on right now, there are not only Type 92 infantry guns, but also 75mm-caliber field guns."

"grass!"

Li Yunlong suddenly thought of something, uttered a curse word, and said: "That bitch Wang Chengzhu must have known that we were coming, so he took action in advance and didn't want to share the meat with us!"

"New group, speed up!"

"Quick, quick, quick! Give me all the strength to feed you, otherwise I'll be late and you won't even be able to warm your shit!"

Ding Wei and Kong Jie did not dare to fall behind, and issued orders one after another to speed up the advance of the troops...

The screen returns to Zhaojiayu.

Japanese troops attack position.

Since the first attack target of the artillery battalion of the Second Independent Regiment was the artillery position, by the time they destroyed it and extended their firepower, the Japanese infantry had already been prepared and scattered in advance to avoid it.

Therefore, the artillery battalion's bombardment did not cause much damage to the Japanese artillery, only three to four hundred casualties.

However, when it comes to the ability to save lives, it has to be the gang of puppet soldiers in the security group.

Without waiting for orders from Hattori, they had already fled to a safe position, and they were in a relatively rear position.

Therefore, the artillery battalion's bombardment did not kill a single puppet soldier.
