Chapter 168 What does this smell like? Meaty? (First update!)
“Krupp, what the artillery battalion has to do is to support the front line at all times.” Cun Yunsheng looked at Krupp who had just returned and warned him again.
“This time is different from before. In the past, we could bomb at will, but this time we must have good infantry and artillery coordination, which is the key to whether we can successfully win the Takeuchi Regiment.”
“Yes, regimental seat.” Krupp stood at attention and saluted.
After several artillery battles, the artillery battalion has been able to cultivate an excellent artillery force. It should be no problem to complete basic infantry and artillery coordination.
"Also, because it is a mountain, you need to consider the issue of reverse slope. You must also take this into consideration. Whether you can successfully capture the Takeuchi Regiment this time depends on whether the artillery support from your artillery battalion is timely." Cun Yunsheng looked at it. Krupp said seriously.
“Yes, please rest assured that the artillery battalion will never hold us back.” Krupp assured.
With these words, Cun Yunsheng felt much more relaxed.
“Okay, after taking over the Takeuchi Regiment, your artillery battalion should also be expanded. Our Sichuan Army cannot always be an artillery battalion.”
Hearing this, Krupp was stunned, and then asked in surprise.
“Are we going to expand again?”
"Well, once we capture the Takeuchi Regiment, we will reorganize it into a task force and take full responsibility for the war in the east and completely drive the Japanese army out of Southeast Asia." Cun Yunsheng said with a smile.
Krupp’s eyes lit up and he said excitedly.
“Great, I’ll go back and prepare.”
"Um."
After Krupp left, Lin Yi walked in and said seriously.
“Commander, the chili noodles you asked for have been shipped, and we are now working hard to make the chili grenades you mentioned, but the military commander has sent another message.”
"What's the news?" Cun Yunsheng asked subconsciously.
What other news can there be from the military commander?
“Yu Xiaoqing seems to be preparing to counterattack Nantianmen.” Lin Yi said quickly.
Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed.
“Counterattack on Nantianmen? What will he use to counterattack? Those two art regiments that I support?”
"He just gave the Japanese a life in vain. If he really wants to counterattack Nantianmen, the first thing he needs to do is to capture Tang Ji. Otherwise, he won't be able to command Yu Division at all. The final solution will be his two regiments." Destroyed, I ended up alone."
Lin Yi looked surprised and couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised.
“Tuanzuo, your analysis is exactly the same as what the military commander said.”
"Oh? Is there such a capable person in the military commander? Can he see Yu Xiaoqing so thoroughly?"
“It seems that Yu Xiaoqing really failed. Even outsiders can understand things, but he can’t understand them.”
"If he really wants to counterattack and capture Tang Ji, he will have to replace all the company and platoon-level officers in the army. After all, the Japanese troops on Nantianmen are already trapped. Even if they eat grass, they won't be able to hold on for long. ." Cun Yunsheng said calmly.
In the original work, Yu Xiaoqing wanted to send people to capture Tang Ji, but he ended up running to the military headquarters to hide.
In the end, he wanted to use the artillery regiment, but the result was that the commander of the artillery regiment didn't care about him at all.
So, Cun Yunsheng knew that Yu Xiaoqing's counterattack was just a sacrifice in vain.
"Should we remind Yu Xiaoqing?" Lin Yi thought for a while and asked doubtfully.
"Remind him for what? Let him hit the south wall a few more times and you will know."
“Wait until he’s almost hit, then we can come out and take him down easily.”
If Meng Fan was here, I would definitely say that you have been plotting against Yu Xiaoqing from a long time ago.
"Ah? Are you going to accept Yu Xiaoqing?" Lin Yi looked surprised.
“What? It can’t be done?” Cun Yunsheng asked.
"Although Yu Xiaoqing has various shortcomings, one thing is that he is not afraid of death in battle. His own style is not bad, and he can be regarded as a clear spring."
"No, I mean, are you not afraid of the Shancheng side going crazy?" Lin Yi said anxiously.
"What does it have to do with me? They defected voluntarily." Cun Yunsheng said with a smile.
“Okay, let’s wait until we take down the Takeuchi Regiment. What we need to do now is to rush to work.”
"Yes, please rest assured, it can definitely be completed within three days." Lin Yi assured.
…
Three days later, there was a hint of smoke in the air.
The Japanese troops of the Takeuchi Regiment also seemed to feel something was wrong.
Because they could feel that the intensity of the shelling from the opposite side was beginning to intensify.
Originally, there were only a few shells fired occasionally a day, but now there are shells from time to time from morning to night.
In addition to these, there are also many fishing boats on the river.
All signs indicate that the day when the Sichuan Army will take action is not far away.
“Shrink the defense line.” Finally, Takeuchi Rianshan gave the order to shrink the mountain.
Whoever allowed him to climb out of the tunnel and block the fishing boats without heavy artillery support was simply overestimating his capabilities.
“Hai.” The chief of staff had just conveyed the order.
The intensity of the bombardment increased again.
And this time it’s different from the previous ones, the intensity and density are obviously greater.
"finally come."
After bombing for half an hour, Takeuchi Renshan judged that this should be a general attack and began to let the troops enter the position to block the enemy.
He is very confident that relying on solid fortifications, he will definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on the Sichuan Army.
The crossing of the river went very smoothly, and the Japanese army did not block it.
In fact, the Japanese army is not a fool, and the firepower of the two sides is obviously unequal.
Aren't you looking for death if you come out at this time?
So, they could only watch the soldiers of the Sichuan Army crossing the river.
Cun Yunsheng, who was watching the battle from behind, couldn't help but nodded when he saw this scene.
"It seems that Takeuchi Lianshan is quite self-aware. I thought he wanted to set up a defense line by the river. Now it seems that he has completely given up on the river." Cun Yunsheng said to Lin Yi.
“Danzao, Takeuchi Lianshan are not fools. They will be heavily bombarded if they dare to show their heads. As long as they are not fools, they will never show their heads.” Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Well, it depends on the performance of the soldiers. Three days is still a bit short, but there is not much time left for us." Cun Yunsheng sighed and said helplessly.
“Tuanzuo, don’t worry, our soldiers have been transformed after several months of training.” Lin Yi was not worried at all.
Most of them are veterans. They have been on the battlefield, fought in battles, and seen death, so they don’t have so much fear.
As for some of the new recruits, there are veterans to help and guide them, so they won’t stretch their hips too much.
“Lao Xing, see you at the Martyrs Cemetery.” Yang Chuan looked at Xing Jiuhong, who was fully armed, and said a sentence that has been particularly popular recently.
Since the establishment of the Martyrs Cemetery in Lashio, this sentence has become unknowingly popular.
So this time, Yang Chuan was no exception when he said this.
“Get lost, I don’t want to go to the Martyrs Cemetery to see you. You are all alive and well.” Xing Jiuhong glared angrily.
"Okay, there are always accidents in war." Yang Chuan didn't care at all. For veterans like him, he had already taken life and death lightly, so he didn't care at all.
“Check the equipment.” After checking the equipment again, Yang Chuan led the commando team behind him to attack the designated area according to the pre-designated plan.
This plan of dividing the entire mountain into countless small areas, and then assigning each commando to be responsible for the attack, is still very good. For example, Yang Chuan is currently in charge of Highland 193, while Xing Jiuhong is in charge of Highland 204. The two sides are relatively close.
Originally, they did not need to lead a team to attack the fort, but they still emphasized going to the battlefield in person, and in the end Cun Yunsheng was satisfied with their ideas.
“Captain, there is a pothole here.” 193 Highlands. As soon as he arrived here, Yang Chuan felt a chilling air. The seemingly calm mountain hid countless dangers.
The entire commando team of more than 20 people did not stand stupidly. Instead, they lay on the ground and used the bushes on the ground to camouflage themselves.
A sharp-eyed commando saw a small pothole and warned in a low voice.
“Blow it up.”
After hearing the order, the commando quickly crawled on his knees. When he came to the pit, he took out the specially prepared chili pepper grenade, pulled the tab, counted for three seconds, and stuffed it into the pit.
boom!
A dull sound sounded, but there was no wailing immediately.
But after waiting for a while, I vaguely heard curse words such as Baga.
Following another violent cough.
The smell of chili peppers emanating from the pothole made the commando sneeze wildly.
“Damn, it’s too hot. The person who came up with this trick must have suffered too much.” The commando murmured.
"This is what Tuanzuo came up with. You'd better think it through before speaking." Yang Chuan glanced at him and said an understatement, which silenced the other party.
“But it’s a little damaged, but the effect is quite good. Continue, please pay attention to safety.”
"yes."
Next, in Highland 193, a whack-a-mole scene was staged.
All discovered potholes were thrown into pepper grenades.
The commandos who originally complained about this are now happily throwing grenades one by one.
At first, I thought that carrying so many grenades would be exhausting.
Now I want to slap myself in the face, why didn't I bring more with me then?
They had a lot of fun!
The Japanese troops in the pit suffered disaster.
When designing the potholes, they had considered grenades, but they did not expect that the enemy did not have martial ethics.
What they threw was not grenades, but chili noodles.
After this thing exploded, it was really pungent.
Especially in this kind of confined space, the feeling is so sour.
Sneezing is considered mild, but some can be so severe that your eyes will turn red.
Cleaning with water is the fastest, but water is a precious resource at this time.
There is no other way but to cry to relieve the pain.
As a result, in a sealed pit, the sound cannot be completely transmitted, and it becomes the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling.
Made the Japanese troops in other areas tremble with fear.
Hello, is it haunted in broad daylight?
Otherwise, how could there be such a miserable sound?
Unfortunately, they soon understood why their companions in other areas started crying for no reason.
"Baga, this is really sinister. Who came up with it?" Everyone in Takeuchi Rianshan was confused after receiving the news.
The design that I came up with in my head was just cracked?
He has always prided himself on being a talented student in civil engineering, but what’s the result?
Is it so broken?
The key point is that up to now, we haven’t fired much.
Normally speaking, if the Sichuan Army wants to completely wipe out them, they must enter the pits and fight them in the tunnels.
The results of it?
They don’t come in at all!
Just throw pepper grenades at every pothole.
This made his men miserable.
"Report, it seems that the Sichuan Army has no intention of coming in at all. They have destroyed more than a dozen of our potholes. For the potholes that cannot be blown up, they directly blocked them with huge rocks outside and then bombed them with explosives. It seemed that they wanted to completely trap us. Kill us." The chief of staff said with a pale face.
He just went to other areas and got a taste of the power of pepper grenades.
The eye sockets are red and swollen, and I can still feel burning.
This is really too damaging.
"Where's the gas mask?" Takeuchi Renshan said with a not-so-good look on his face.
“Your Excellency Colonel, the gas mask seems to be ineffective. It doesn’t work at all.”
“Now not only the eyes, mouth, and nose, but also the body will feel burning when it falls, which greatly affects the combat effectiveness.” The chief of staff explained again.
"Baga, the Sichuan Army is too vicious. Can't these despicable guys fight us openly?" Takeuchi Renshan said angrily.
If Cun Yunsheng heard this, he would probably slap him in the face.
Honestly?
If you have the ability, come out and see if I don’t blow you up?
“Your Excellency, Colonel, what should we do now?” The chief of staff had no good solution for this kind of pepper grenade.
Even Takeuchi Renshan didn’t know how to solve it, so he could only bite the bullet and say it.
“Keep on holding on.”
“Hayi!”
As a result, there are fewer and fewer potholes, and there are more and more cries of ghosts and wolves howling throughout the mountain.
"The efficiency is still too slow. Look carefully to see if there are any other holes. Remember not to leave any dead ends." Yang Chuan couldn't suppress the smile on his lips, but he still disliked the fact that the efficiency was too slow.
I didn’t expect Tuanzuo’s method to be so useful.
Da da da!
Suddenly, there was a burst of violent gunshots in the distance, and Yang Chuan secretly thought something was wrong.
That was a pothole, and he specially left a few people there to guard it. Now that he heard the sound of gunshots, some Japanese soldiers must have been unable to help themselves and got out.
“You guys continue to look for the pothole, and the rest of you will follow me.” After saying that, Yang Chuan led his men and trotted to the pothole.
As a result, several Japanese soldiers were seen lying in a pool of blood.
“What’s wrong?” Yang Chuan asked.
“Just now, a few Japanese soldiers couldn’t bear it anymore and they came out. As soon as we saw it, we immediately pulled the trigger.” A commando reported.
"Good job. It seems like the little Japs can't stand it. More and more Japs will come out next. You should pay attention to your safety." Yang Chuan nodded, then seemed to have thought of something, and looked at the flames on the side. Bing gestured.
The Pyro immediately bent over and came to the pit, and then pressed the trigger fiercely against the pit.
A fire dragon went directly into the hole!
There was a miserable wailing sound inside.
Ahhhh!
Ahhhh!
Not long after, a scent came from the pit!
Several recruits couldn't bear it and vomited it out.
“I have to exercise again, it’s unbearable.” Yang Chuan glanced at it and shook his head.
"Captain, how do you know there are still Japanese troops in the pothole?" Several commandos who stayed behind were startled. If Yang Chuan hadn't been careful, they might have suffered just now.
Before Yang Chuan could speak, violent explosions were heard in the distance.
That was the artillery support from the artillery battalion. Looking at the area, it was obvious that it was Highland 204.
“Lao Xingna fought so enthusiastically?”
I felt depressed in the morning. I took some medicine and came back to my senses. Sorry!
