Chapter 119: The War in Jinan (4)
At this time, the continuous roar of cannons came from Zhonggong Town, "Boom! Boom! Boom!"! The retreating Northern Expedition soldiers suddenly stopped hearing the cannon sound, and turned to look at the position of Zhonggong Town, as if they could see the team that had just repelled their attacks and others was blown away by shells. But they were disappointed, because the subsequent explosion of shells came from behind them, that is, these shells were bombed out of the position of Zhonggong Town.
So they could only retreat in disappointment and dared not stop at all. The shells seemed to be sending them off, and the landing points were in the darkness directly in front of the Northern Expedition Army.
At this point, the attack that started at 1:00 a.m. finally stopped for the first time at nearly 5:30. Qi Mudeng ran to Tu Qianjun panting and beat a slutty salute and said in a hoarse voice: "Report, Qi Mudeng, the commander of the second company, reported to the commander!"
Tu Qianjun panted and looked at Qi Mudeng in front of him and couldn't help but smile. The boy's military cap was thrown away. The military uniform became extremely ragged, covered with blood and black and gray. But seeing that he didn't suffer any injuries, Tu Qianjun smiled and said, "You guy is lucky, you can't be injured! Awesome!"
Qi Mudeng smiled when he heard Tu Qianjun's words, and then said, "'Battlefield Commander, why have you come to the front line in person?! Let's not talk about this for now, go back to the anti-cannon hole first! I guess they should smash us with cannons in a while!"
Tu Qianjun took out a cigarette, and Qi Mudeng immediately lit it for Tu Qianjun with a wink. Tu Qianjun took the cigarette and took a deep breath before sneering at Qi Mudeng and said, "Do you think the cannon I just shot was in vain?! Let me tell you, our cannon just now was heading towards their artillery positions!"
Qi Mudeng was so happy when he heard Tu Qianjun's words! But then he said suspiciously: "Where do we know their artillery positions?! Could it be that the prisoner himself marked the map for us? But if this is the case, it is impossible to fight!"
Tu Qianjun sneered and threw the cigarette butt on the ground, looking at Qi Mudeng with contempt: "Don't worry! You won't let the reconnaissance and artillery surveyors sneak into the enemy's position, just mark their coordinates directly?!"
Qi Mudeng slapped his head when he heard this! Yes! Isn’t it possible to just go to the artillery surveyor to survey the coordinates?! At this time, Qi Mudeng discovered that Lin Bao, who had always been around Tu Qianjun, was missing at this time. Qi Mudeng immediately understood! Tu Qianjun must be that Lin Bao sent to reconnaissance the enemy’s artillery camp. And there must be accurate news coming back, so the sound of artillery that seemed to be a farewell, but in fact it was an artillery attack that attacked their artillery positions.
At this time, the artillery positions of the Northern Expedition Army were in miserable! Chen Cheng had never expected that this remnant army would actually have artillery as equipment. You must know that they had only seized dozens of artillery pieces until now. He did not believe that there could be troops with artillery in a small broken place on the outskirts of Jinan.
Therefore, you can imagine how surprised Chen Cheng was when he heard the sound of cannons coming from Zhonggong Town! Then he became interested! After all, he graduated from the eighth phase of the Baoding Military Academy, so he naturally had an understanding of cannons. At that moment, he immediately asked Yang Deliang, the commander of the second regiment under his command: "What cannons?!"
Yang Deliang is also a graduate of Huangpu and belongs to the fifth artillery department. Speaking of which, Chen Cheng served as a special officer of the captain of the Whampoa Military Academy and an adjutant of education, and Yang Deliang is just his student. Therefore, when Yang Deliang heard Chen Cheng’s question, he dared not neglect and immediately said: "Howitzer, mortar!"
Chen Cheng nodded when he heard this, and was about to say something, but then he was stunned immediately! He heard a long roar of "squeak", "Boom!!" A huge roar sounded on the artillery position! The entire artillery camp suddenly shook!
"Table tennis! Crazy ~" The glass windows of the office were all broken all of a sudden! Several artillery and artillery soldiers around the artillery were overturned to the ground by the huge impact force! Several people were even washed into the sky by the air waves!
"Architecture!! Hidden!!" Yang Deliang screamed shrillly, pulled Chen Cheng out of the office and rushed out of the artillery position! Before the roar just now, countless roars came as if rolling horse hooves! The soldiers on the artillery position were dizzy by the shelling, and then screamed and fled everywhere. But where was it so easy to escape?!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!" The roar was stronger than a lifetime. Most of the more than 100 artillery on the position were overturned, and some artillery shells were hit and exploded directly! The fragments were broken and the air waves continued to overturn the artillery and the artillery running around! There were many artillery soldiers on the scene who were flying in and cut off their heads or their stomachs, and the broken corpses and internal organs flowed all over the ground! Some ammunition boxes placed next to the artillery were hit and even more terrifying. The larger air waves caused countless corpses on the ground, and the entire artillery was hit like a purgatory...
Yang Deliang pulled Chen Cheng out of the office and rushed towards his horse, rode Chen Cheng in front of the horse and ran out of the artillery position! At this time, Chen Cheng came to his senses and shouted shrillly: "My cannon! My cannon!! I want to go back!! That is the cannon handed over to me by the commander-in-chief..."
Yang Deliang pressed Chen Cheng tightly and shouted: "Education officer! Now the enemy has started shelling, what is the purpose of us going back and killing us?! Only by saving our lives can we continue to develop artillery! If everyone is dead, what's the use of not shooting no matter how many cannons are there?!"
I don’t know if this sentence worked, Chen Cheng no longer struggled but lay down and whimpered, "My cannon...my cannon..."
At this time, Commander-in-Chief Jiang Zhongzheng didn't know that his artillery position was beaten by Tu Qianjun and had been destroyed. At this time, he called Liu Zhi, commander of the First Army of the First Army, Jiang Dingwen, commander of the Second Division, Xu Tingyao, commander of the 22nd Division, and Hu Zongnan, commander of the 22nd Division, and looked at them coldly and said, "Bad! Scrat! The Party and the State have spent so much effort to cultivate and equip you to come out, but you will beat me like this?"
"You don't feel embarrassed either!! The three divisions combined with tens of thousands of troops! There was also nearly an hour of shelling before the attack! What's the result?! You fought me for several hours and even had a position, but they didn't occupy it! What kind of shit are you fighting?! What kind of shit warriors are you learning?!"
Liu Zhi and others were scolded by Chiang Kai-shek, but they didn't dare to let go of their farts. They lowered their heads and listened to his scolding. Outside Chiang Kai-shek's office, Chen Diaoyuan, commander of the Second Corps, led his commander of the First Division, Yue Shengxuan, commander of the 26th Army, under his command of the 26th Army; Ding Handong, commander of the Second Division; and An Shushan, commander of the Third Division, waited on a chair outside the door.
Hearing the angry roar from Chiang Chiang, the four of them couldn't help but feel extremely nervous! You know, they were dragged to the headquarters for a long time! The First Army has always been the commander-in-chief's direct line, and they were scolded for being so hard to fall into.
Opposite the Second Legion was Fang Dingying, the commander of the Third Legion. He also led his 40th Army and the commander of the Army under his command, Li Yizi, the commander of the 82nd Division, Yang Yongqing, the commander of the 83rd Division, and Tao Zhiyue, the commander of the 84th Division, were also waiting for the summons of the commander-in-chief.
