Chapter 234 Group Battle 11
Xi'an Village.
The 14th Division of the Japanese Army was divided into two parts, the front and the back, with Xi'an Village as the separator, although Kita Seiichi tried his best to get the front part to come back or the rear part to move forward.
But every attempt would be bombarded by the Eighth Route Army's 107 rocket launchers.
"Division Commander, we can't try again. The Eighth Route Army's rocket launchers are too powerful. We have lost a squadron."
Wakamatsu just grabbed Kita Seichi, who was a little drunk, and begged him bitterly.
"idiot."
Kita Seichi roared and gave up the idea of the two parts joining together.
"We must first deal with the rocket launchers of the Eighth Route Army, otherwise the troops will always be under the bombardment of the Eighth Route Army."
Kita Seiichi thought for a moment and ordered: "Tell Miyagawa Seizo to find a way to deal with the Eighth Route Army's rocket launchers!"
"Hi."
"Move the newly formed 10st Brigade, th Brigade, and th Brigade forward to encircle the front of the Japanese th Division."
The commander-in-chief of the front line, Chief of Staff Ye raised his binoculars to observe the battle situation ahead and said calmly, "First, we will take down his front part, and then surround his rear part."
"Yes."
Soon, the two parties, each with their own thoughts, began to take action.
However, compared with the Eighth Route Army's deployment of troops, Miyagawa Seizo, who wanted to deal with the Eighth Route Army's rocket launchers, was sweating profusely.
"Is Captain Miyakawa still not well?"
Wakamatsu Jiichi was standing in the artillery position of the 20th Field Artillery Regiment, looking at Miyagawa Seizo who was sweating profusely and asked.
"Come on, come on."
Miyagawa Seizo wiped the sweat from his head, looked at the soldier who was calculating the position of the enemy's artillery with him, and responded casually.
"How long will it take? I want the exact time, ten minutes, twenty minutes, or half an hour?"
Wakamatsu Zhiyi was a little impatient. It had been such a long time and the calculation had not yet been completed.
"Hey, let me tell you the truth!"
Seeing that he couldn't shirk his responsibility, Miyakawa Seizo said helplessly: "The rocket launchers of the Eighth Route Army can be transferred very quickly."
"They simply don't know how to fire a second time at a fixed location. Every time we fire, we only hit the air."
"What should I do?"
Ruo Song was stunned for a moment and asked hurriedly.
"We can only send out scouts to find the enemy's rocket launchers and then call in our artillery to attack them."
Miyagawa Seizo thought for a moment and replied.
"Is that so?"
Wakamatsu just nodded and prepared to go back and tell Kita Seichi the bad news.
"The division commander orders the artillery to turn toward the 27th Brigade."
Just then a Japanese soldier came here hurriedly and said to Miyagawa Seizo.
"27th Brigade!"
Wakamatsu's face changed immediately and he ran towards the headquarters without saying a word.
"Division...Division Commander, is the 27th Brigade surrounded by the enemy?"
Wakamatsu just asked breathlessly.
"That's right!"
Kita Seiichi nodded grimly: "Ten minutes ago, the enemy reduced its attacks on us."
"Begin an all-out assault on the 27th Brigade. They can't hold out any longer."
"hateful!"
Wakamatsu Jiichi said anxiously: "Division Commander, quickly let Miyagawa Seizo support the 27th Brigade!"
"I have asked Nagatani Yu to contact Miyagawa Seizo directly. When the time comes to fight, Nagatani Yu will tell Miyagawa Seizo directly."
"Bang, bang, bang..."
As soon as Kita Makoto finished speaking, several loud noises were heard, and 120mm grenades flew over the two men's heads and hit the Eighth Route Army that was charging in front.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
The tremendous power of the 120mm grenade prevented the Eighth Route Army from attacking the position of the Japanese 27th Brigade.
"Damn it, get me the artillery brigade."
When Chief of Staff Ye saw that not only had the attack failed, but more than a dozen soldiers had been killed by grenades, he immediately shouted in anger.
"Chief of Staff, the call is connected."
Chief of Staff Ye took the phone and angrily asked, "Commander Wu, did you see the 120mm howitzer that just fired?"
"Report to the Chief of Staff, I saw it!"
Wu Ting, commander of the artillery brigade, subconsciously stood up straight and answered loudly.
"If you see it, just fix it for me. He doesn't want to see it launch a second time!"
Chief of Staff Ye said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Wu Ting put down the phone and looked at the long-range rocket launcher that was calculating the position. The guide said: "Hurry up, the chief of staff is urging us!"
"Calculation completed. Direction: southeast. Vertical coordinate: 1328. Horizontal coordinate: 9703. Height: 332."
"Ready."
Almost the next moment after the guide finished reading out the coordinates, the artilleryman standing in front of the long-range rocket launcher adjusted the coordinates.
"shooting."
Wu Ting waved his right hand fiercely.
"Chirp chirp chirp...."
Four long-range rocket launchers, emitting sharp sounds and dragging long tails of flame, fired towards the enemy's 120mm howitzer position.
"Quick, clean the barrel and prepare for the next shot."
At the Japanese howitzer position, the gunner continued to direct his men and make preparations for shooting.
"drop....."
A long whistle sounded, and preparations for shooting were completed.
"Prepare!!"
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Four huge explosions were heard, and the entire howitzer position was suddenly enveloped in flames.
"Baga, my howitzer!"
20th Field Artillery Regiment, inside the temporary command post.
Looking at the direction of the explosion, Miyagawa Seizo felt like his heart stopped beating. A total of 12mm grenades were gone just like that.
"Hurry, go check and see if there are any surviving howitzers!"
Suddenly, Miyagawa Seizo jumped up, hoping for a lucky break, and ran towards the howitzer position with his men.
At this time, the entire howitzer position was in a mess, with charred corpses and some broken wooden parts everywhere.
"Captain, look, the howitzer is fine!"
A Japanese soldier pointed at the howitzer, which was hot but had not suffered much damage overall, and was surprised.
"Hahaha, even though the enemy's rocket launcher has a long range and moves fast, it still has no effect on our heavy howitzers!"
Miyakawa Seizo smiled and ordered: "Hurry up and scoop some water to cool down the cannon, and then check if there is any problem with the cannon."
"Yes."
"Chirp chirp chirp..."
Before Miyagawa Seizo could be happy, several more sharp sounds of rocket launchers were heard, and violent explosions were once again heard at a Japanese artillery position.
"Baga, my mountain cannon!!"
"Chirp chirp chirp..."
"Baga, my wild cannon!!"
After three or four artillery positions were bombed in succession, Miyagawa Seizo's eyes turned black and he passed out.
"Hey, let you little devils be so arrogant!"
Wu Ting, who received the news that the artillery companies had hit the targets, gave the order with a smile.
"Send a telegram to the chief of staff and tell them that the artillery brigade has fulfilled its mission and successfully destroyed all the Japanese artillery."
"Counterattack, launch an immediate attack on the Japanese 27th Brigade."
After receiving the telegram, Chief of Staff Ye mobilized troops again without saying a word and began to besiege the 27th Brigade.
This time, without the support of artillery, the position of the 27th Brigade was in danger and was attacked by the Eighth Route Army many times.
"Baka, Miyagawa Seizo should commit seppuku to apologize for his crime."
Seiichi Kita was in the command center, jumping up and down in anger.
"Don't worry, division commander. We still have a chance."
Wakamatsu on the side quickly persuaded: "We still have the support of the aviation brigade."
"The 16th Independent Mixed Brigade, the th Brigade, and the rd Division of the Imperial Army will be here soon. We haven't lost yet!"
"Ah."
Hearing this, Kita Seiichi managed to calm down.
"Send a telegram to urge them to hurry up."
"Hi."
