Chapter 597 Fire Reconnaissance

Compared with the previous group of gangsters who were in a mess and didn't understand what it means to maintain an attack formation, this group of carefully selected gangsters is generally pretty good. They maintain a basic attack formation and know how to cross-cover each other.

They held their guns hunched over their waists and slowly moved toward position No. 1.

The weather is nice today, the sun is shining brightly, and the field of view is very wide. I don’t know why, but the costumes of these gangsters are colorful, and they are particularly conspicuous in the bushes.

The Tiger Gang does not have uniform uniforms. Most of the cotton fabrics are snatched from the private sector and pieced together. There are various fancy fabrics such as gray and black, cyan blue, white, and red.

Wearing all kinds of fancy clothes, they were probably helpless. Although the defenders couldn't see the faces of these bandits, they could clearly see the various colored cotton clothes on these bandits. This is also a strange thing in the history of war.

In the dark brown bushes, the red and white ones are very conspicuous, and they are afraid that others will not know their location.

"After putting it in, don't expose all the fire points of the heavy machine gun. The fire points that have been fired should be moved to the backup position immediately after the first round of strikes!"

Ji Chunsheng whispered instructions to the surrounding officers.

In the past, most of the battles were led by major generals, but this time the major battles in southern and western Jiangxi were all planned and commanded by Ji Chunsheng.

As the chief of staff of the Allied Forces, he has the same personality as Chen Tianhua, that is, when formulating combat plans and orders, he also pays attention to every detail, giving everyone a sense of presence as the backbone.

A small group of gangsters, probably a platoon-level team of about forty people, carefully ran into the front of the bald man's third platoon position, their legs trembling.

This group of gangsters and the Fengzhong Security Team are old acquaintances. They have fought several big battles before, and the result was that the Tiger Gang was defeated miserably.

Everyone knows that these guys in the security team kill people like crazy and are very scary, and the bandits are scared of them.

But we can't proceed without moving forward. Look behind us, we see a group of guys who look like a war team. They are pointing their guns. If you retreat, you will be killed immediately.

Hell, he gritted his teeth and decided to move forward.

It's past two o'clock in the afternoon. I hope the people guarding the position are all a group of drunkards. They are still drunk and will not notice themselves. Then Amitabha.

The gangsters comforted themselves with deception while slowly continuing to move forward.

Their heads were in a state of high tension, constantly thinking about various issues of life and death, and observing their surroundings furtively.

When this group of unlucky guys reached the edge of the highland and the middle of the canyon, the bald man, the forward commander, yelled, "Open fire..."

The two hidden firepower points suddenly took off their camouflage and revealed their ferocious faces. They were two Maxim heavy machine guns.

"Ta...ta da..."

"..."

The heavy machine gun spit out its flaming tongue and began to massacre a platoon of gangsters.

Two Maxim heavy machine guns, facing the enemy without any obstacles, fired indiscriminately from a high position.

Within a few minutes, all these forty black men fell into a pool of blood. The seven or eight bandits who managed to escape were all killed one by one by several snipers on the position.

"Move the heavy machine guns quickly!"

After the bald man saw that the attacking group of gangsters were all killed, he immediately issued a transfer order.

After the firepower point is exposed, immediately move it. This is the basic common sense in positional warfare.

Although you are facing a group of bandits who are not familiar with the situation, you must stick to this concept and make it a habit. Otherwise, you will suffer big losses when you encounter strong enemies in the future!

Song Menqing, the commander of the Guangxi Independent Battalion, looked at the two exposed firepower points and nodded slowly. He turned to Master Ye next to him and said:

"The enemy's position commander on the opposite side is very shrewd. He has obviously received formal military training. He did not expose too many fire points. Let's do this. Artillery fire is needed here for exploratory shooting. A round of artillery fire will be carried out according to the positions of the fire points marked above.

Strike."

As he said that, he handed the drawing drawn by the scout squad to Master Ye.

"Okay, I'll implement it right away." Master Ye folded the drawings and put them in his pocket without even looking at them. He nodded to Song Menqing and turned around to leave.



"Huh? Are we going to bombard with artillery fire now?" Lu Wenhu was confused about Master Ye's announcement.

"It's a tentative bombardment!" Master Ye came to the scene and nodded affirmatively.

Damn it, it turned out to be some kind of fire reconnaissance. Didn’t you know that our artillery shells are expensive? It’s such a shameless thing!

After Lu Wenhu was stunned for a moment, he still agreed. Now the Guangxi soldiers needed to work hard, so he had to be patient for a while and try his best to satisfy himself.

Soon, the order was sent to the artillery position of the Tiger Gang.

There are now two artillery positions in the Tiger Gang. One is a twelve new field mountain artillery position supported by the Japanese, together with a team of more than 80 volunteers transferred from Taihu Jin Tianlong, including the commander.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows deep down that this artillery team, including its artillery and its men, is still under the control of the Japanese, which is equivalent to being "leased" to the Tiger Gang for free. If it doesn't work well, the Japanese will take it back.

What's even more terrible is that the number of artillery shells provided by the Japanese was only twelve boxes, with a total of ninety-six artillery shells. Of course, Lu Wenhu was reluctant to waste the artillery shells on exploratory shelling.

His orders and bombardment requirements were sent to the Tiger Gang's Second Artillery Brigade, where there were twenty old-style artillery pieces of various sizes.

"Got it!" the commander of the Second Artillery Group snorted.

He glanced at the hand-drawn terrain map that was sent to him, shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

The enemy's firepower points above were clearly marked with coordinates, but for the old-style artillery, these were like playing against a cow, and it was impossible to aim so delicately.

He slowly walked towards his artillery position and issued the order according to the instructions on the note.

"preparation…"

"fire…"

There is no so-called bombardment lock, and there is no shooting accuracy adjustment.

The artilleryman just loaded the cannonball, predicted the approximate direction and distance, then adjusted the muzzle elevation, and finally pulled the string to fire.

There were a total of twenty old artillery pieces, including large general cannons, second-level general cannons, various types of French machine guns, etc. Twenty rounds of artillery shells flew directly towards the position.

"Shh...boom..."

"Shush...boom..."

"..."

An artillery shell landed on the back of the high ground, on the high ground on the right side of Gongji Ridge. Ji Chunsheng was stunned for a moment.

Damn it? Are you thinking of attacking the command post from behind?

After looking at the ballistic flight path, he shook his head, it didn't look like it!

Immediately afterwards, several more shells fell, but the landing points were different from the predetermined locations, and they were chaotic.

Finally, he couldn't help laughing.

A total of dozens of explosions were heard, but miraculously not a single shell landed on Highland No. 1.

Including the previous false fire points or the two heavy machine gun positions just exposed, no shells fell.
Chapter completed!
