Chapter 1398 Launching a Counterattack

The test firing failed to hit the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and the salvo and even the extended firing also failed to achieve the desired effect.

There was no other way, so the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment had to find a new way.

What new way?

It was very simple, just blind firing.

In other words, at this time, these 48 large-caliber heavy artillery no longer relied on the guidance of the artillery observers, but began to fire freely.

It must be said that at this time, the officers and soldiers of the 88th Division of China had already entered a state of confusion.

In fact, the division commander Sun Yuanliang and the officers of the 88th Division had already seen it.

The anti-Japanese armed forces that had just chased the Sixth Division were the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

As for the Sixth Division, although it suffered heavy losses, it did not choose to fight back. The reason was very simple.

There was no surprise. The Sixth Division must have received a death order from the Central China Front Army:

In a word, in the shortest possible time, take down the Yuhuatai position where the 88th Division of China was located, and thus start the formal siege!

After being confused for a while, thinking that the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment was nearby and had been eyeing them, Sun Yuanliang and his men were very worried about the safety of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.

Under the close attention of Sun Yuanliang and his men, the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment finally started the bombardment.

Fearing that the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army would suffer heavy losses, Sun Yuanliang could not bear to watch all this, so he gritted his teeth and decided to use a big move.

Sun Yuanliang planned to draw a reserve from the stretched troops and let the reserve immediately attack the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment.

Family members know their own affairs best.

Sun Yuanliang knew that after the reserve was sent out, there would definitely be no return.

The full-scale war of resistance had been going on for so long. As a senior officer, Sun Yuanliang was very clear about the super combat effectiveness of the Japanese artillery regiment.

This super combat effectiveness was not limited to the bombing of artillery.

To be precise, many Japanese infantry were deployed around the artillery regiment.

The mission of these devil infantry is very simple, which is to protect these artillery, so as to effectively prevent them from being attacked by Chinese troops.

From the perspective of combat effectiveness, in order to deal with these devil infantry, Chinese troops must deploy at least five times the force to barely succeed.

Taking the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment as an example, in order to achieve this tactical goal, the 88th Division must deploy at least 10,000 people.

Unfortunately, even before the Battle of Songhu, when the 88th Division was at its peak, the force was only this many people.

In the Battle of Songhu, in the defense of Yuhuatai, the 88th Division lost a lot of troops.

Therefore, even if the 88th Division pressed on with all its troops, it would not be able to gather so many people.

The most important thing is that they are also responsible for continuing to hold the Yuhuatai position.

Therefore, Sun Yuanliang was able to squeeze out the reserve team and let the reserve team sneak attack the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment, which was already a good job.

In fact, with this arrangement, Sun Yuanliang was definitely playing a desperate game.

Without any surprises, this reserve team will never return.

The most important thing is that once the 88th Division has no reserve troops, the Yuhuatai position will be immediately breached by the Sixth Division.

In fact, before the main force of the Sixth Division evacuated, the Yuhuatai position had already entered the rhythm of being breached.

Also, the significance of the existence of the reserve troops is to replenish fresh blood to the troops with heavy casualties at any time, so as to consolidate the positions everywhere.

Without the reserve troops, any location of the position will be breached by the enemy at any time.

What made Sun Yuanliang happy was that in the face of this harsh reality, no one raised any objection to his order.

"Let's go!"

Feeling that it was almost time, Sun Yuanliang looked at these soldiers who were about to die on the battlefield one by one. Although he had mixed feelings, he still issued an order to act.

Hearing this, the 2,000 soldiers of the reserve team immediately saluted Sun Yuanliang with a standard military salute.

Then, these 2,000 soldiers set out on the journey without hesitation.

Coincidentally, the reserve team had just set out for five minutes, and suddenly, something strange happened!

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."

Suddenly, the distant sky suddenly heard the shrill sound of artillery shells breaking through the air.

The key point is that the number of artillery shells is not ordinary.

The most important thing is that judging from the posture, these artillery shells are all flying towards the artillery positions of the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment.

This...

In this situation, Sun Yuanliang and the officers of the division looked at each other.

Then, after realizing the amount of information in it, Sun Yuanliang and his men were ecstatic.

Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army!

If nothing unexpected happens, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will definitely escape the carpet bombing of the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment.

That's not all. After escaping from danger, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will place its position elsewhere and start bombing the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment.

Realizing this, Sun Yuanliang shouted loudly in ecstasy.

"Quick, notify the reserve team and let them come back immediately!"

What made Sun Yuanliang laugh and cry was that although the reserve soldiers ran very fast, they were still in sight.

Soon, the soldiers of the reserve team came back and continued to be on guard, ready to rush to the battlefield at any time.

At the same time, Sun Yuanliang and his team continued to pay close attention to the artillery positions of the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment.

"Boom boom boom..."

Under the close attention of Sun Yuanliang and his team, this artillery position almost turned into a minefield.

Even though they were more than ten kilometers away, Sun Yuanliang and his team still felt the deafening sound.

There was no other way, they had to cover their ears.

In addition to the explosions that continued one after another, there was no lack of gunpowder rising into the sky in that direction.

Even outside the gunpowder that was constantly spreading in all directions, Sun Yuanliang and his men could see the blown-up cannon parts!

"Awesome!"

Realizing that the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment was crippled by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and thinking of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army's super firepower, Sun Yuanliang sighed.

However, Sun Yuanliang had an idea.

Yes, now, the Sixth Division Artillery Regiment is gone, and the Sixth Division is definitely equivalent to a tiger without teeth.

In this situation, why don't we take advantage of the situation to launch a wave of counterattacks?

If we wait for the Sixth Division to replenish the artillery regiment, where is the chance of counterattack?

The island country is so powerful, it will take only a few minutes to replenish the artillery regiment?

Realizing this, Sun Yuanliang did not dare to neglect it.

Then, Sun Yuanliang and the staff of the division headquarters began a tense and heated discussion and quickly deployed a battle plan.

Sun Yuanliang and his men were very busy, and so was the Sixth Division.

So many people were killed by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and the artillery regiment was also destroyed by them.

This kind of thing must not be tolerated!

"Baga!"

With a swish, the division commander Gu Shoufu drew out his command knife.

Pointing to the direction of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army's artillery position, Gu Shoufu roared at the top of his lungs.

"Everyone, kill the chickens!"
