Takeuchi Yunshan's little face was actually pale when the mortars began to beat the infantry in the valley.

The pale face and the blackness left by the smoke on his face were like a clown on the stage, a bit funny, but not funny.

Because the Japanese officers who were working hard to occupy the back section of the valley all understood that if there were no foreign aid, they would probably not be able to escape from this Death Valley with their own efforts by their colleagues in the valley.

However, the field radio station of the corps headquarters has been declared dead, and it has become an unknown when foreign players can reach it. Compared with this, it is better to pray that the Chinese people don’t have that many shells.

Unfortunately, as the Japanese heavy machine guns began to fire in succession, the roar of shells that cut through the sky buried the final expectations of the Japanese officers.

It was the unique sound of the Four-One Mountain Cannon shells running in the air.

Two 75-caliber mountain cannons, the last trump card of the Independent Battalion finally made its debut.

Even if Fat Dahai was scolded by Tang Dao as a dog, he was not willing to use these two killing weapons. It was really too few shells of two mountain cannons compared to mortar shells.

There are only 60 shots in total, and one shot will be less if you hit it.

Good steel was about to be used on the blade. Finally, when the Japanese heavy machine guns emerged, two mountain cannons placed on the ridge 800 meters away from the river valley could speak.

In order to inform the mountain artillery bombardment area as quickly as possible, several artillery observers even took risks and stood on unobstructed mountains and used flags to inform the distance.

So much so that three artillery observers were injured by grenade debris, which was fortunately not fatal.

However, their courage allowed the distant mountain artillery squad to obtain the artillery coordinates in the shortest time and launch an attack.

A 75MM caliber small howitzer can only be a small cannon on a large battlefield, but here it is the largest caliber artillery. Moreover, due to its geographical location, they don’t have to worry about the anti-suppression of Japanese artillery fire in the valley.

First, the Japanese army must have artillery observers to see their artillery positions; second, the Japanese army's artillery must dare to fire on this battlefield that is completely within the range of Chinese soldiers.

Not to mention the noise of the seven or eight hundred kilograms of mountain cannon firing is extremely loud, even if there are more than a dozen people surrounding a mountain cannon, it is clearly indicating the target for the Chinese.

In addition to the more flexible and convenient infantry artillery, the Japanese mountain artillery basically did not show its head.

Balls of cannon fire exploded in the valley, and simple temporary fortifications did not play any protective role. Whether it was a heavy machine gun or a human body, as long as it was hit by a round of artillery fire, it would basically become a part of the ground.

In the war situation in the valley, with the firepower of the Independent Battalion Artillery Company opening up, the balance of victory has gradually tilted towards China.

The consumption is very large, almost bankrupt, but in Tang Dao's opinion, as long as it can kill enough Japanese infantry, everything is worth it.

Because Tang Dao knew best that after fighting this battle, the Independent Battalion might not have the chance to fight this scale with the Japanese army for a long time.

With the fall of Jinling, he will lead his troops to the north to advance to the mountain, where the Independence Battalion will completely become a mountain field force.

Takeuchi Yunshan was in pain, but he still had no despair because he had a wise choice to divide the two infantry brigades under him into three parts. A vanguard infantry squadron led the main force by one kilometer, a middle section of the main force of the entire army, and an infantry squadron carried more than a dozen carriages as a part, which was not only a protective material, but also a rear guard of the entire army.

In other words, although the main force of nearly two thousand infantry was besieged in the river valley, the Japanese army still had two infantry squadrons, one head and one tail, and a baggage team stayed outside the river valley.

Takeuchi Yunshan's last hope lies with these two infantry squadrons, but he did not place his hope on the vanguard infantry squadron before the entire army.

Although the vanguard infantry squadron is the elite of his command, in front of them is a Chinese infantry battalion with hundreds of troops. Thinking about it, Takeuchi Yunshan also knew that they were in a difficult situation. Returning to attack the ridges on both sides of the valley was what they should do the most.

The hope of the Japanese colonel is the infantry squadron and baggage team that are not trapped in the siege in the end. They do not need to attack the Chinese. As long as they run away and run out of this mountainous area to alert the main force of the detachment, they have hope of breaking through the siege.

However, Gu Xishui's special operations team followed the Japanese army in the mountains for more than two hours, so naturally they had already telegrammed Tang Dao about the Japanese army's arrangement.

Tang Dao had already made corresponding tactical adjustments based on the formation of the Japanese army. The person responsible for blocking the Japanese army's rear team was Zhao Daqiang's fourth company.

Their combat mission is to annihilate the enemy at the lowest cost in the shortest time. If possible, it is best to seize some materials.

Maybe there won’t be much equipment, but I’ve eaten a lot of money, which is what the independent camp needs most now.

Therefore, as soon as the battle in the river valley ahead started, Zhao Daqiang gave an attack order with red eyes.

Zhao Daqiang's anger did not come from the Japanese army who reacted quickly in front of him, but his fourth company originally planned to be responsible for the task of luring the enemy, but before the morning was early, it turned into a company of Leng Feng.

Yes, he admitted that compared to combat effectiveness, Leng Feng's first company was the best in the entire battalion, but the first company snatched away the combat mission that originally belonged to him and the fourth company, and after all, there was still a demon fire that was inferior to others.

This cannot be blamed on Tang Dao, who is responsible for coordinating the overall situation, nor can it be blamed on Leng Feng. This fire can only vent at the Japanese army in front of him.

The battlefield facing the Fourth Company is seven or eight hundred meters away from the river valley, and it is a mountain road.

There are deep ditches on one side and high mountains on the other side. The mountain roads are narrow, which is a good place to beat the baits, but it is a bit difficult for an ambush position of an infantry company.

Because the formation of the Japanese army was too long, if the Japanese army took a loophole to fight back up the mountain, the casualties would increase greatly. Or if they escaped into the mountain, they would alert the main force of the Japanese army several kilometers away, which would be extremely dangerous for the entire army.

More than 200 Japanese infantry escorted nearly 100 Japanese military supplies and more than a dozen carriages loaded with full carriages, with the entire queue reaching nearly 800 meters.

Therefore, Zhao Daqiang spread his three infantrymen and a fire support to scatter at various attack points that are up to 1,000 meters long.

There are 10 infantry squads, each infantry squad must be responsible for nearly 100 meters of front line. The two heavy machine guns that provide the fourth company's fire support platoon are guarding the front and rear ends of the front line, and the two mortars are located behind the ridge, and Zhao Daqiang personally directs the strike against the stubborn Japanese fire points.

After the attack order was issued, the raindrop-like bullets poured into the Japanese army thirty or forty meters away, and there were grenades.

However, in order to prevent the carriage from being blown up, grenades generally did not greet the Japanese baggage team.

But the other Japanese troops were in trouble.

Especially the two infantry squads that led the way, 60% of the attacks of the fourth company were targeting them.

Submachine guns, mausoleum guns, light machine guns, rifles, all the firearms that can be fired, plus dozens of grenades, they greeted the Japanese infantry who quickly responded to the tactical response.

To put it in a modern sentence, the 4th Company of the Independent Battalion, which was frustrated, aimed at the opponent, and threw all his strength into it.

After suddenly encountering such a blow, the Japanese army would not seek action no matter how sensitive it was.

If you want to avoid these, in addition to climbing up the mountain, you can only jump into a deep ditch. If you jump down a ditch of more than ten or twenty meters, you will probably not be able to fall into anything with your butt.

However, there are quite a few Japanese troops who choose to jump into the deep ditch. Although many Japanese troops do not want to jump down themselves, they are squeezed down by panicked companions.

Those who don’t have the courage to jump down can only climb up the mountain wildly, even if the dense bullets shot down the mountain make the scalp numb.

The Japanese army climbing up the mountain with a gun with a gun and was swept down like rice cutting, and the submachine guns and mullets equipped for each squad were swept down, but the Japanese army continued to join, howling, and shouting, holding the gun with a gun with a gun on the mountain without stopping, as if they didn't know what the fear of death was.

It’s not that the Japanese army was brave enough to even know what death was, but the reality in front of them told them that staying on the narrow mountain road, no matter whether you are hiding under the rocks, no matter whether you can avoid the Chinese grenade bullets, the final outcome must be to be killed on the mountain road.

The only way to survive is to rush up the mountain ridge, forcing the Chinese to leave the ridge or share the pressure on the mountain road.

Because, in addition to conventional gun-and-grenades, the Chinese actually used creepy incendiary bombs, although they were thrown manually.
