The artillery staff officer shook his head and said.

"It seems that the little devil is going to fight for his life... Order the four mortar companies to attack the four positions respectively, and immediately carry out artillery fire cover according to the shelling coordinates set in advance. Order the forward artillery observers to immediately carry out artillery fire cover according to the specific shelling coordinates.

Position, correct the bombardment coordinates at any time, bombard the Japanese machine gun positions and grenade positions as much as possible, and reduce the pressure on the forward infantry as much as possible." Chen Guangrong ordered loudly.

"Yes, commander..." the combat staff officer took the order and left.

"Commander, should you let the remaining four mortar companies also participate in the artillery bombardment? Just four artillery companies will provide cover. I'm afraid the infantry at the front can't stop it..." Seeing the leaving combat staff,

The political commissar asked with concern.

"Political Commissar, we must not use the remaining four artillery batteries. Now we are attacked by the Japanese on all sides. I think that as long as the Japanese division commander is not a fool, there must be a main attack and a feint attack. I don't believe in the Japanese army.

We have enough troops to carry out an attack on all sides. Therefore, these four mortar companies are of great use..." After hearing what the political commissar said, the regiment leader Chen Guangrong immediately retorted.

"I hope the infantry at the front can hold on..." The political commissar nodded, agreed with Chen Guangrong's words, and said to himself.

"Political Commissar, don't worry, the division commander still has a reserve team. Besides, the Second Division Plateau is coming here with two regiments of reinforcements. I guess they are almost there now...

"Chen Guangrong was not too anxious. He raised his telescope and began to carefully observe the Taniguchi battlefield one kilometer away, which was under heavy artillery fire.

Although the four mortar companies at this time continued to bombard the Japanese machine gun positions as much as possible based on the latest coordinates provided by the forward artillery staff. However, the four mortar companies only had 48 mortars after all. On average

On each position, there is only one artillery battery with a total of 12 mortars. On the other hand, the little devils in front of the position are indeed scattered with nearly a hundred light and heavy machine guns, as well as dozens of grenades.
