The gateway of the base area opened, and a Japanese brigade rushed in and attacked the field hospital, causing a lot of casualties.

When the news came, a huge storm broke out in the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

The boss was furious and shouted at Chief of Staff Left: "Catch the company commander who escaped in the battle and shoot him! He is a bitch, and it will embarrass the Eighth Route Army."

Chief of Staff Left said: "I have ordered the Military Law Department to execute the firing. Judging from the enemy's movements, they do not know that our arsenal is here."

The boss didn't talk and thought in silence.

In fact, since the Hundred Regiments Battle began, from the orders issued by the boss, it can be seen that he had the idea of ​​annihilation of hundreds of enemies or a brigade in his mind.

In the telegram on August 23, there is a text like this: try to extend the battle time and expand the results. For the enemy troops who come to support hundreds of people or a large group, they should have a firm determination to gather superior forces to eliminate them.

The telegram further explained: Because only in this way can the enemy not dare to come out for help easily,

Even if the enemy dares to come to help, it needs to gather greater strength. This side can extend the time and increase the gaps in the enemy's attack, which is conducive to our army's destruction of operations.

In the subsequent telegrams, it was also mentioned that concentrating the main force, annihilation of one or two enemy brigades in favor of the situation.

Before, at the top of the Red Cliff, a Japanese army brigade and an infantry regiment of the puppet army were eliminated. Has the Japanese not yet been able to remember it?

If it doesn't work once, then do it a few more times.

It hurt the Japanese. I saw if they dared to run out in a brigade?

The boss punched the table, shaking the water cup on the table and jumped up: "Kill this Yamazaki Brigade, who is raised by this bitch."

The boss's order was passed to the 129th Division, and the commander handed over the important tasks to the 386th Brigade and the New Tenth Brigade.

The troops were transferred and immediately surrounded the Guanjiao area where the Yamazaki Brigade was located.

The forces of four regiments, from east, west, south, north and north, surrounded the Yamazaki brigade like four fists.

Guanjiawan is located in the center of Taihang District. It is more than ten kilometers south of it. It is the brick village. It is Licheng to the south, Wangjiayu to the southwest, Wuxiang County to the west, Yushe to the northwest, and Liao County to the north.

The peaks here are undulating, the mountains are steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is a small flat ground on the top of Guanjiawu, which is very suitable for military deployment and defense.

There are cliffs on three sides here, and only the south slope is relatively gentle and suitable for attack.

There is also a small village on the hillside.

The common people in northwest Shanxi live in caves, one cave is connected to another cave.

Going further south, you will reach another highland willow wall.

The altitude of the willow tree is higher than that of Guanjiawu. From the willow wall, the path leading to Guanjiawu can be controlled with firepower.

Captain Yamazaki was arrogant but not stupid. The Eighth Route Army was everywhere, so he could only occupy Guanjiawu to build fortifications and wait for assistance.

In the combat command room of the 386th Brigade Brigade Command, several regiment commanders were fighting red because of the main attack mission.

"We should take on this mission. If we want to talk about the experience of eliminating more than one brigade of the Japanese army, our independent regiment must be our independent regiment."

Kong Jie spoke arrogantly, and I think everyone here is rubbish, just the most powerful style of my independent group.

Commander Cheng of the 772nd Regiment could not bear it anymore. He always felt that it was just that the independent regiment had picked up a hole, and anyone who wanted to fight that ambush would win.

He criticized without hesitation: "Kong Erlangzi, don't put on the pig's nose and pretend to be elephant,

Without the cooperation of the New Group, how could your independent group win?

The casualties were so great that they were not breathing yet. What should I use to grab the main attack mission? I will grab the first one!"

They said they had found bargains and looked down on their independent group.

If he scolded him, Kong Jie, he would be able to tolerate it. But if the independent group was not good, Kong Jie would not be able to tolerate it.

Kong Jie stared at him like a copper bell, and cursed without hesitation: "Blind Cheng, what were you talking about?"

If you are not capable of, who do you blame? There are Japanese soldiers everywhere. Why haven’t you destroyed a Japanese brigade? Let’s show everyone!

If you don’t have the 772nd Group, it’s just that you, Cheng, is too blind."

Seeing that the two were about to rise to attack, the brigade commander slapped the table and calmed them down.

The brigade commander knew that if they had to fight, they would not have any result after a few hours.

Just look at their fighting very actively.

The brigade commander made the arrangements directly: "The Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment had a lot of casualties in the previous battles. The Independent Regiment participated in the siege, so the New Second Regiment should be a reserve team!

The 38th Regiment has sufficient source of troops and is highly motivated, and is responsible for the main force of the enemy who is responsible for attacking the top of Guanjiadian. The time is set at 10 o'clock tonight.

The 772nd Regiment sent a unit to attack the Liushuyan Highlands, and then sent a battalion to penetrate the middle area, so that the enemy could not be joined by them."

At this time, six hours have passed since Yamazaki Brigade broke into the first line of the sky.

It's already evening.

When the commanders received the order, they were anxious to return to their troops. The brigade commander did not leave any food, and they all asked them to go.

As soon as the meeting was over, a combat staff member came in: "Brig Commander, Consultant Yuan had been waiting for more than two hours."

"Why is he here? Please!"

The brigade commander had dealt with Yuan Lang a lot, and knew that he was impatient. If there was nothing, he would never wait for him for more than two hours.

Yuan Lang waited for more than two hours, and naturally he was anxious to wait. But he agreed to ask for merit for everyone, so he couldn't just let it go because he was impatient.??

Then where will he put his face and what credibility will he have in front of everyone in the future?

As soon as he entered the door, he reported the victory straight to the point: "Brig Commander, good news, great news, we have developed a cannon with a caliber of at least 300 mm."

The title party, he plays very well.

A 300 mm caliber cannon, I ask if you are afraid?

However, he ignored a question. Can the 300 mm caliber cannon be built by the Eighth Route Army now?

If he had said he had made a mortar, the brigade commander might have believed it a little.

The brigade commander poured him a glass of water and said with a smile: "Don't worry, what can I say slowly? The 300 mm caliber cannon is the good news you said, so what's going on?"

He knew that Yuan Lang was a Shunmao donkey, so he respected it and held it a little, which was very easy to solve.

Yuan Lang was indeed as he thought, sitting down to explain the situation of the cannon he created.

The brigade commander first heard the 300-mm cannon and thought he was joking. But the more he listened, the more he felt that there was a way to do this thing.

According to the launch principle of the mortar, it is a bit like a trencher, and it uses an oil barrel to launch explosive packs... It's very interesting, it would be even better if you can see the real thing.

Yuan Lang thinks that is too good. If you make this thing, you must want to get recognition from superiors. It is best to report to the headquarters and promote it for use.

"The Brigade Commander, you can watch it anytime if you want. In fact, this thing is best used in actual combat. I heard that some Japanese attacked our base.

Before I came, I had asked them to start making it. Then I would line up and give the Japanese a veil of explosives, which would be the best effect."

The terrain of Guanjiadao is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the ramp to the south seems to be useful.

What the brigade commander is still hesitating about is that he has never seen the flying thunder cannon that Yuan Lang said, so what is going on?

What effect will it be if a weapon that has never been seen before and directly put into the battlefield?

Will it have a negative effect?

These are all things to be thought about, and the brigade commander cannot take risks with the lives of the soldiers.

"How many guns have been built now?" asked the brigade commander.

"This... I only built one when I left, and they are still building the rest." Yuan Lang didn't dare to fight and promise, he was really unsure.

After thinking for a while, he said again: "In this way, call the New Second Group and ask them to send someone to ask."

The brigade and all regiments have put up telephone lines, and telephone communication can still be done.

The brigade commander did not agree immediately, but asked worriedly: "The flying thunder cannon can hit 150 meters, or between 200 meters?"

Are there any restrictions on angle and terrain? Will there be any defects in the explosion of the chamber?"

The former is worried about whether the explosive pack can be poured, while the latter is worried about its reliability.

The brigade commander is not ordinary, he is very educated. He has a good understanding of weapons such as artillery.

When making artillery barrels, the ones used are not ordinary steel, but special gun steel.

One of the purposes is to be strong.

The thin layer of iron in the gasoline barrel must withstand the thrust generated by the explosion of gunpowder. Can it withstand it?

In his opinion, it was very difficult. Even if he could withstand it once or twice, it would probably not work if he had too many times.

What will happen if the ignited explosive pack does not fly out?

That is the same as a shell explosion, and the power of an explosive pack is predictable.

The brigade commander asked Yuan Lang really stopped the question.

The flying thunder cannon is made of handmade soil and has no fixed parameters. The drawings he took out were not written.

To know these data, it must go through repeated calculations and experiments.

He was very confident in the power of a sanitary cannon and would come to report good news as soon as it was created.

But the brigade commander has never seen it and there is no specific data. How can I easily believe it?
