"Hurry up! The Japanese have set off firecrackers, and they are going to attack again! Damn, I don't come early or late, but when I want to get rid of my big hand, I haven't wiped my butt clean!"

Huang Lebo bent down and rushed into the trench, pressing against the anti-cannon hole on one side, and pressing the soldiers passing by one in front of him one by one.

Their company came back in the middle of the night yesterday. After a day of rest, they all recovered.

At this moment, when the shells in front exploded, he immediately understood that this time the formation was probably small, and he was the first to jump out and send the troops into the position.

In the trenches below, the alternate soldiers and some Qing soldiers hid in the bunker with their heads in their arms early to ensure that they would not be injured by shells. This saved a lot of trouble for a group of veterans, at least they did not have to worry about delaying the frontal battle in order to take care of them.

This time the Second Company was assigned to the right wing position, with a whole company of infantry, except for one platoon as a reserve team, two platoons of soldiers plus the same number of new recruits and Qing soldiers mixed together.

The advantage of this composition method is that it can effectively control inexperienced Qing soldiers. Those guys have never received formal modern military training at all, and they cannot even master the basic correct shooting posture. Not to mention seizing the opportunity to shoot on the battlefield.

This is Yang Hao’s idea.

He has always been not very at ease with the Qing soldiers. Even if Ma Yukun, who claims to be able to fight, was still unable to improve his qualities. However, since he had to use others, he had to take out some decent capital. Let them experience the atmosphere of the real battlefield and learn some means to kill the enemy and save their lives. This is enough.

If the three old and new white people are mixed together, it will inevitably lead to a decrease in command efficiency and combat effectiveness. Fortunately, there are enough veterans to hold back their positions and firepower and equipment are all released, the killing density can still steadily gain the upper hand.

The left-wing battlefield is still the main focus, with some alternate troops and the Qing army. The position slightly behind is composed of direct forces from the battalion headquarters and two auxiliary personnel.

Although their total number is the smallest, the equipment density of automatic weapons is the highest. Yang Hao's own guard squad and reconnaissance platoon. More than 20 people were in the hands of contemporary killer weapons such as 56 rushers and 81-1.

There were long expected the Japanese attack. As soon as the cannon sounded, everyone entered the position one after another.

Yang Hao and several company commanders, commanders, and Shi Jianfei gathered together in the anti-aircraft command center. Looking at the explosions that were rapidly gathering below, they all understood that the Japanese had to take serious action this time.

The Japanese army's shelling this time has obviously improved, and it is no longer direct shooting and killing by auxiliary infantry, because it has been proven to be completely useless before.

After receiving reinforcements from the twelve new mountain cannons, they concentrated a total of sixteen guns, and hid behind several low hills at a distance of more than three kilometers, using curved ballistics to attack the left wing positions. The landing points of the shells were particularly dense, and even some explosion points were almost connected.

After more than 100 shells were blasted out in a narrow area with a width of less than one kilometer, rolling smoke and dust spread everywhere. The originally unclear vision simply turned into a ball of paste.

No one else has any say, Yang Hao couldn't help but praise: "The Japanese are indeed good at learning. Although they always make things high and low, they are not as good as they are, at least the speed of their progress cannot be underestimated."

Where did you start? Others are confused. In their consciousness, the Japanese are actually very powerful. Well, they have only been working on the reform and Westernization with the Qing Dynasty for a few years, and they dared to attack the Qing Dynasty. This courage, the forbearance and persistence shown by the Qing Dynasty are not comparable to those of the Qing court, who is an expert in civil war.

Yang Hao reacted so quickly and immediately led the topic to the right path: "It seems that they want to concentrate their firepower and open a gap, and then disperse our machine gun fire, which makes it impossible to take into account, and gather superior forces to attack a little. Well, this seems to be their left-road attack tactic."

This time he didn't have to sing a solo show by himself. Shi Jianfei raised his eyebrows and gave a suggestion: "In this way, we must have an extremely tight side. But whether it is the direction of the current artillery fire attack cannot be determined. We may have to deal with it passively."

Yang Hao nodded at him with admiration, and this came to the point.

He turned his head to attack several company commanders and officers and said, "Before determining the direction of the enemy's main attack, the defenses on all sides must be on the battlefield. Even if it seems that it is necessary to focus on the attack, the rest must not be careless! The Japanese have always liked to use fraud, risk, and win by surprise, and cannot be deceived by the false appearances they made!"

Huang Lebo was stunned: "Ah?! What's going on? Could it be that he was staring at the front from beginning to end? This is like being pressed on the whole line!"

"That's it!" Yang Hao slapped the map on the table. "The Japanese army's number advantage is. As long as they fully utilize it, we can only fight them hard once with the trenches! I believe that after these two days of thinking, if their commanders are not too stupid, they will always have some experience. It can be seen from their artillery deployment. At least now, we cannot destroy their artillery counter-revolutionaries at once."

Huang Lebo scratched his head a little: "This is a bit troublesome! We have too many new recruits, so I'm afraid I won't be able to eat or drink at that time!"

Yang Hao smiled relaxedly: "They are not all veterans. Especially those people were beaten to lose their morale before, and they may not be able to exert any combat effectiveness by then. The newly arrived soldiers will definitely lack physical strength after a long journey. As long as they withstand their attacks a few times, they will be weak one after another."

Shi Jianfei added: "In addition, according to my observation, in front of the entire position, the Japanese army can actually invest in combat at one time, and 1,500 is the upper limit. They cannot form double-team sneak attacks behind them, so they can only attack and fight hard. At that time, it depends on who can better exert their combat effectiveness."

This is good news. Dividing one thousand five by three is only five hundred people. With three hundred to five hundred, plus the advantages of weapons and trench advantages, even if you can't attack, it's not a big problem to defend.

"In addition, don't rush to move the artillery." Yang Hao said to the firepower company commander Zhu Maolin. "Your focus is to try to find out where the Japanese command and artillery positions are located, and then take them all in one pot. There are grenades and other things to deal with in frontier battles."

Others did not have any more supplements, so they briefly assigned the matters to support each other and devoted themselves to the trenches ahead.

Yang Hao himself also mentioned an 81-1 and took Shi Jianfei and others into the slightly backward central position. Their arrival made the soldiers feel clearly at ease.

Shi Jianfei was calm on the surface and was very impressed. Sure enough, extraordinary people did something extraordinary.

With Yang Hao's current status, reputation and wealth, the so-called son of a daughter cannot sit in the hall. He doesn't need to go to the front line of the battle to fight and fight to the death. Nowadays, as long as you pay money to win people's hearts, some people will work hard for you. Why do you have to be a big boss?

But he did that. And from the movements, it can be concluded that his professionalism is no worse than that of elite soldiers. It is difficult for such a person to fail to accomplish a big thing!

A commander who can still share the joys and sorrows with ordinary soldiers under such conditions will inevitably be able to greatly gather the centripetal force of the team. Following such a person will do something better than wasting half a life in a daze and wasting his good years.

Shi Jianfei took the initiative to pass by five or six. After learning how to operate it quickly, he loaded bullets and aimed at correcting his posture. Soon, he could do no less than those recruits who could take a month to train.

Yang Hao was surprised and glared at him, "Okay, you. You have a good foundation and exercise! It seems that you not only learn theory in school, but also have a set of practice."

Shi Jianfei said reservedly: "Actually, I have been internships at Krupp and Mauser Arsenal for a while. I have some experience in infantry weapons such as guns and cannons."

This guy is really not easy!

Yang Hao felt more and more that he had found a treasure. If the other party was just learning how to be a staff officer, or he could only be a good auxiliary officer. But he could take the initiative to understand infantry equipment. That was to really get involved in the details of the battle. If this was a comprehensive consideration, not only could he calculate the real combat power of both the enemy and us to the maximum extent, but he would not make any major mistakes when necessary.

There is no need to say more praise. Yang Hao pointed at the Japanese figures gathered below and said, "Okay, let's compete later to see who will kill more enemies!"

Shi Jianfei did not answer, but pulled the bolt, loaded the bullet, took a deep breath, leaned over in front of the trench and aimed below.

With the rumbling cannons, the Japanese attacking troops were already in front of the formation!

Guided by some infantry of the 9th Brigade, most of them were the main offensive forces of the new 22nd Regiment soldiers. The total number of the first wave was more than 1,500. They were divided into vague multiple waves of advance in vague waves.

These days, Oshima Yoshihara and the others did not do anything. They not only summarized the general rules of Yang Hao's artillery attack, but also established a new artillery position and fire-focused attack strategy.

At the same time, the number of defense personnel on the opposite side was also estimated, the machine gun fire point, the location of the unconscienced cannon was outlined on the map, and the dead corners of the shells that the opponent shot across the ridge, etc.

It can be said that the staff officers in the Oshima Brigade, who are good at mathematical geometry, all used their brains to devote themselves to their homework. When Shibata Masato led the crowd, his most short-lived soldiers and artillery problems were solved, and he launched another attack, which was more confident than before.

All sixteen mountain cannons were concentrated, not only completely blocking the unconscience-free cannons and machine guns in that area, but the key was to prevent them from forming firepower support in the middle and even below. The fireworks and dust that blocked their sights, and also provided excellent cover for the offensive troops.

One more thing is that they used two days to cut down trees and collect sacks, and they actually created more than a dozen "earth tanks"!

You read that right, it's this kind of magical thing. Use a wheelbarrow or two-wheeled floor car or a four-wheeled flat car. A thick layer of wood is nailed on the front, and the rack is built with at least three layers of quilts, with half a foot thick sand mixed in the middle. Then press a layer of sandbag. The entire protective thickness is more than half a meter. Although it can't withstand the shells, it can block most rifle bullets.

Such a heavy thing, four people were required to push the two-wheeled car, and eight people were required to take turns to take turns to the Taiping car. Two soldiers were side by side in the car, and they kept firing with rifles.

Such a bunch of things pushed forward with heavy weight, stumbled along the rugged foot of the mountain and formed a wall that seemed unbreakable for a short period of time! (To be continued. (.))
