Chapter 482 Fang Yi
In the Artillery Company of the Independent Regiment, the soldiers were patiently waiting for the orders of the regiment commander Li Yunlong. They could see that the Japanese were attacking very fiercely.
After the Japanese artillery opened fire, the soldiers of the artillery company remembered the direction of the Japanese artillery fire and calculated the specific location of the Japanese artillery. Liu Gen was not in the artillery company, and the soldiers could not be 100% sure whether the Japanese artillery position they inferred was correct.
But even so, the soldiers of the Artillery Company were still 70% or 80% sure. After arriving at Cross Ridge, they carefully observed the terrain of Cross Ridge. The location of the Japanese were only a few suitable artillery positions, which was also the biggest reliance of the soldiers of the Artillery Company.
However, Li Yunlong's order was delayed, and the soldiers of the artillery company were somewhat anxious. The soldiers did not understand why Li Yunlong did not let them take action. With the combat effectiveness of the artillery company of the Independent Regiment, they were confident enough to kill the artillery and destroy most of the firepower points of the Japanese.
Unfortunately, regiment commander Li Yunlong never issued an order to let the artillery company open fire. No matter how anxious the soldiers were, they could only wait.
Zhang Yi, the commander of the artillery company, was preparing for the battle. He was the fourth company commander of the artillery company. In the artillery company, the first company commander was Liu Gen, and the second and third company commanders unfortunately died in the battle. The battle of artillery is more dangerous than that of the infantry. Once an artillery battle with the Japanese, the chance of death is high.
This is the case for the second and third company commanders of the artillery company. When they were engaged in artillery battles with the Japanese, they led the way and severely damaged the Japanese artillery several times. Unfortunately, they were hit by the Japanese artillery and died heroically. As the fourth company commander of the artillery company, Zhang Yi has very good abilities and joined the artillery company as soon as it was established.
Zhang Yi checked the preparations before the battle and the distribution of artillery companies again and again. As the company commander of the artillery company, he needs to be responsible for the soldiers of the artillery company. Moreover, it is very necessary to make sufficient preparations before fighting with the Japanese, at least to make the soldiers of the artillery company mentally prepare.
The soldiers of the artillery company were a little silent when they saw the movements of Zhang Yi, the company commander. After a moment, they, who were originally a little impatient, calmed down again. As artillery, the most important thing is to remain calm. Zhang Yi, the company commander, set an example for the soldiers and influenced the soldiers of the artillery company with their own actions.
Without receiving Li Yunlong's order, the soldiers continued to practice during combat and repeatedly deduced the location of the Japanese artillery positions to ensure that the Japanese artillery were killed as soon as possible. Only the Japanese artillery could the artillery company launch unscrupulous artillery attacks in the subsequent battle.
Considering that there are not many mortars in the artillery company, Zhang Yi chose to concentrate all of several mortars and attack one target at the same time to ensure that the artillery will not have any problems. Of course, if you choose to do this, once you are counterattacked by the Japanese artillery, it will definitely be quite troublesome, and the soldiers will also be in a certain danger of their lives.
But even so, Zhang Yi chose to do this. He knew very well what the task of the artillery company was, and he also knew how important it was to kill the Japanese artillery and firepower points in this defensive battle. In this battle, even if the artillery company was severely damaged, he still needed to complete the task of killing the Japanese firepower points!
Half an hour later, the battle on the front line stopped a little, and the Japanese chose to retreat temporarily, and the soldiers of the Independent Regiment also had some rest time. In order to prevent the Japanese from touching them quietly, the soldiers also needed to pay attention to the Japanese's movements when resting to avoid such a thing.
At this time, the artillery company finally received the order from the regiment commander Li Yunlong, ordering them to ensure their own safety in the next battle, while ensuring their safety, and kill the Japanese artillery and the Japanese light and heavy machine gun firepower points as much as possible, reducing the pressure on the frontline soldiers to defend.
After receiving Li Yunlong's order, the soldiers of the artillery company quickly prepared. In fact, there was nothing to prepare, and everything that needed to be prepared was already prepared before.
"Comrades, our mission is very simple. It is to kill the Japanese artillery and light and heavy machine gun fire points. This is not difficult for us! Everyone must not make any mistakes in the battle! Any mistake is fatal. Can you do it by killing the Japanese artillery as fast as possible?" Zhang Yi shouted loudly.
"Yes!" The soldiers responded in unison. In the entire independent regiment, the training figures of their artillery company were almost the most arduous. In the past battles with the Japanese, the artillery company also fully proved its own strength. This time, the artillery company had to complete its combat mission with all its strength and reduce the defensive pressure for the soldiers of the independent regiment.
Twenty minutes later, the battle started again. This time, the Japanese artillery launched an active shelling of the defensive positions of the independent regiment as usual.
On the Japanese artillery positions, the Japanese artillery kept sending shells into the barrel and flew out one by one, attacking towards the independent regiment's position. The previous artillery attacks and fire suppression, the independent regiment did not expose the existence of the artillery company, which made the Japanese artillery soldiers not at all vigilant. They did not think that the independent regiment had the ability to threaten them.
However, while these Japanese artillery soldiers were joking, they did not notice that there were black spots in the air flying towards them quickly. When some Japanese realized something was wrong, it was too late, so that these Japanese artillery soldiers had no time to escape.
The shells from the Artillery Company of the Independent Regiment fell and exploded on the Japanese artillery positions. The shells were very dense. After three rounds of fire, the shells quickly extended in other directions around. After thirty or forty shells were knocked out, the artillery company gave up shelling the Japanese artillery positions and turned to shelling the Japanese light and heavy machine gun fire points.
When taking action on the firepower points of the Japanese light and heavy machine guns, the artillery company's artillery company's artillery company's artillery company's artillery company can adjust the corresponding angle with peace of mind, and then launch an artillery on the firepower points of the Japanese light and heavy machine guns, striving to kill the Japanese firepower points with one shot!
Seeing this, the Japanese soldiers quickly retreated. Without artillery and light and heavy machine gun fire points, they were constantly attacked by artillery companies. The Japanese knew that they could not continue to attack.
Seeing the Japanese soldiers retreat, the soldiers of the Independence Regiment couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The crazy attacks of these Japanese brought great pressure to the soldiers. Now that the Japanese suddenly retreated, the soldiers were finally able to rest for a while. After marching and arriving at the Cross Ridge, the soldiers did not have a good rest.
