Chapter 658 Fortunately there was no mutiny
Although there were only six shells.
But this is not a 75 field gun, but a 105 howitzer with a killing radius of meters.
Moreover, these Japanese artillerymen were dragging their cannons towards the cars.
Almost all the devils were standing.
Even if there were devils lying down in time.
Half of the Japanese artillerymen were blown to the ground.
Those Japanese artillerymen who were still alive were so scared that they wanted to find shell craters to hide in.
But it is night now, and after the explosion, the entire artillery position is filled with smoke and dust.
The Japanese soldiers who survived these lessons were unable to see the location of the craters for a while.
Before they could react.
The second and third rounds of shells whizzed in.
There were almost no Japanese soldiers left at the Japanese 105mm howitzer position.
Even if there were still a few left, they were lying in a pool of blood, wailing in pain.
"Bagaya road!"
The Japanese captain was so angry that his face turned blue and veins on his forehead bulged.
"Notify everyone to abandon their flashlights and torches, notify the team at the back to quickly destroy their artillery positions, and notify the team in the front to quickly advance! Signalman, call for support immediately, call for support!"
The Japanese captain Shan Yongyefu gritted his teeth and roared.
Although his 105 howitzer position was bombed.
But he still has 75 field guns and 12 tanks! There are also many infantry guns and mortars ahead.
As long as he launched a fierce attack on the Emerald River Base and captured it, he would be able to use the Emerald River Base's defensive positions to defend against the enemy's attacks and wait for reinforcements to arrive.
For a moment, his team moved forward rapidly.
The 75 field gun was also pushed forward by the Japanese soldiers.
Originally, Jesse's artillery observer was calculating the coordinates of the Japanese 75mm field gun in order to guide the 105mm howitzer behind it to bomb it.
But now, the cunning Japs turned off their flashlights and torches.
Jesse's artillery observer couldn't see the position of the Japanese 75 field gun from a distance. The gun barrel observer was so angry that he gritted his teeth and cursed, but there was nothing he could do.
When Jesse learned about the situation, he was so angry that he cursed, but Hu Dacai quickly asked him to contact the observer to observe the position of the tank.
The Japs' tanks had no way of turning off their lights.
When operating at night, if the tank's headlights are turned off, it is easy to crash into the mountain or overturn.
So the tank still kept its headlights on and rushed forward under the artillery fire.
At this time, the Japanese tanks had even rushed to within less than a thousand meters of the gate of the Emerald Base.
"Baga, we're finally getting there!"
“Keep going, keep going!”
The Japanese tank squadron leader saw the turret firing through the periscope and immediately shouted loudly into the communication headset.
"All tanks bombard the turrets. Take down these two turrets first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of artillery shells whizzed towards their tanks.
These are not 105mm artillery shells, but shells from the infantry guns, mortars, and 75mm field guns in the Emerald River base.
The shells directly covered the entire area of the tank convoy.
Although no shells landed on the Japanese tanks, the explosions of the shells caused the infantry around the tanks to fall down one after another.
At the same time, the smoke from the explosion made it impossible for the Japanese tank headlights to penetrate.
The Japanese tank drivers couldn't see the direction clearly, and several tanks collided with each other one after another.
The angry Japanese tank soldiers cursed inside the tank.
At this time, the 105mm howitzer was already roaring...
On the other side, a squadron of Japanese soldiers and a battalion of puppet troops were coming towards Jesse.
But they didn't expect that Hu Dacai and Hamigua's infantry artillery, mortars and 75 field guns had launched a fierce bombardment at them. At the same time, they sent infantry to advance quickly, killing the Japanese and puppet troops here in one breath, blocking the Japanese's retreat route.
Hear the explosion here.
The Japanese captain Shan Yongyefu suddenly felt something was wrong.
Only then did they realize that those people before had retreated deliberately, leaving them to attack the Emerald River base, and then turned back to block their retreat route, and at the same time joined the Emerald River people to attack them from the front and back.
Unfortunately, by the time he reacted, the situation had already been decided.
It was too late for him to retreat.
Moreover, the tank troops in front were covered by artillery fire.
Although the 75 field guns, mortars and infantry guns behind were bombarding frantically, they covered the tank troops moving forward.
The infantry that could cooperate with the tanks were almost wiped out.
Even if the tank was not blown up, his tank would not dare to move forward rashly without the cooperation of the infantry.
"Bagayalu! Organize the death squad and keep charging forward!"
The Japanese captain had no other choice but to have everyone wear death belts and continue to charge forward, hoping to rely on their bushido spirit to break into the Emerald River base...
The Japanese in many distant places received their call for help.
However, most of the Japanese and puppet troops in the surrounding areas were transferred there, including this team.
There were too few troops left, and no one dared to rush to rescue.
After all, they can't defeat the enemy with so many people and such good weapons and equipment. If they go to help with such a small number of people, they will just be asking for death.
The Army had to ask the Air Force to intervene.
But it's still four o'clock in the evening.
It's still dark.
Even if the plane flew over, it would not be able to see the target and carry out bombing.
The Air Force could only use this as an excuse and wait until daybreak to send planes there.
After all, they were also worried about the Allied anti-aircraft firepower.
After all, many of their planes were shot down by this Allied force.
Time passes quickly.
After more than an hour, the battle gradually ended.
The leader of the Japanese army, Guizi Shanyongyefu, was killed in the explosion. Some Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers managed to escape, while some puppet soldiers who could not escape simply gave up and knelt on the ground to surrender...
Yuan Shuai quickly ordered people to clean up the battlefield.
At the same time, he contacted Hu Dacai and asked him to quickly withdraw his men back to Zhacheng to prevent the Japanese planes from bombing Zhacheng during the day.
Just as Yuan Shuai said.
Although Zhacheng is already their city.
But in fact, there were still some people who wanted to take over the city. Originally, these people wanted to launch a mutiny, but unfortunately almost all the troops were taken out to fight, and there were only a few hundred people left to defend the city.
It is simply impossible for a few hundred people to defend the city.
Therefore, these people didn't dare to take any action at all.
When these people saw the troops that had gone out turned back, they secretly thanked God that they did not take action.
Otherwise, these few hundred new recruits would definitely not be able to defeat Hu Dacai's more than a thousand people.
However, when I heard that Yuan Shuai and others had captured the Feicui River, killed so many Japanese devils, and seized a large number of tanks and cannons, I was shocked.
These people felt a chill on their backs.
Emerald River!
They all knew how many Japanese and puppet troops there were in Feicui River and how strong the defensive positions were.
Yuan Shuai and his men were able to capture the Feicui River and kill so many Japanese and puppet troops.
Even if they launched a mutiny, Yuan Shuai and his men could easily capture their city.
On the other side, Hamigu and others were quickly cleaning up the battlefield.
