    Chapter 656: Counterattack

    On the first day of the attack on the Huangyadong base, Okamura Neiji was very satisfied with the result of the cannon bombardment. With such a sharp weapon in hand, all obstacles would be reduced to powder. In three days, only three days, the Battle of Huangyadong  To put it to an end, Okamura Neiji set a timetable for himself. As long as a gap is opened in the Huangyadong defense system, the imperial soldiers will pour in like a violent wave. The seemingly solid defenses will become China's  The soldier's grave may not last three days, right?

    Consolidate the occupied positions and continue bombarding the subsequent Chinese army positions. This was the second order issued by Neji Okamura. The silent sound of artillery sounded again earth-shattering. Huangya Cave was once again shrouded in fireworks and gunpowder smoke, far away  From the looks of it, the Huangyadong base seemed to be shaking under the violent shelling.

    This time, Changfeng learned his lesson and did not let the cannons that Okamura Neji had placed his hope on play a big role. He had ordered all the troops on the second line of defense to withdraw to the third line of defense, which was the last line of defense.  This is also the last barrier in the core area of ????Huangyadong. Further inside, there are industrial areas and living areas.

    Chang Feng and Ma Chaoyang summarized the lessons learned from the first line of defense. They found that the destroyed bunkers were all built on the flat ground at the entrance of the valley, while the bunkers built on caves were rarely destroyed.  The soldiers were not killed by shelling, but by shock. The third line of defenses was precisely based on natural caves and artificially transformed, which could effectively avoid being destroyed by the perverted cannons of the little devils.

    However, there is one problem that has not yet been solved. How can the soldiers hiding in the cave bunker avoid being killed by the shock wave?  The division commander Tang Qiuli sent back the telegram. The high efficiency of the ** division's intelligence system once again came into play. All the relevant information about the Japanese army's cannon that attacked Huangyadong was clearly placed on Tang Qiuli's desk.

    He also learned about the giant cannons used by the Japanese army to deal with the Soviets from the information of later generations. Historically, this kind of super-large-caliber cannons did not play any role. The Soviet Union declared war on the Kwantung Army and successfully  Strategic deception was carried out. There was no trace of the Soviet Union in the direction of the cannon bombardment. The murder weapon that the Japanese had worked so hard to build became a decoration. Unexpectedly, Okamura Neiji used it to attack Huangya Cave. History is really  A magic master.

    He personally designed the defense system of Huangya Cave, and he was familiar with every fortification. Chang Feng gave up the second line of defense, which made Tang Qiuli sigh to Chang Feng. This guy could see the root of the problem at a glance.  , undoubtedly the most correct measure was taken. In his telegram to Chang Feng, he affirmed Chang Feng's method and clearly pointed out how to deal with the huge shock wave when the Japanese cannon shell exploded and how to save the lives of soldiers.

    He did not give any guidance on specific tactics. Chang Feng's performance made Tang Qiuli full of confidence in winning the battle to defend Huangyadong. After receiving the telegram from the division commander, Chang Feng did not have the slightest doubt and practiced countless times.  It proved that the division commander's judgment and foresight were absolutely accurate. He seized the time to convey the division commander's order to all regiment-level commanders of the garrison, and demanded that the division commander's methods be strictly followed, and no one was allowed to do so.  Out of shape.

    The core area of ????Huangya Cave immediately became busy. When the Japanese artillery bombarded the second line of defense, even though they could only talk in their ears, everyone carried out preparations in an orderly manner according to their respective tasks, which showed **  The division's units were astonishingly organized and disciplined.

    Tang Qiuli's method, from today's point of view, is really useless. He used all the quilts to make sound insulation equipment and sealed all the holes. The soldiers guarding the bunker each received a pair of cotton earplugs.  , put thick cotton quilts under their feet to act as sound insulation. When the Japanese army bombarded, all the soldiers had to lie on the cotton quilts. Tang Qiuli could only use these crude methods. If he had a soundproof sponge, he would never  Will use these alternatives.

    Fortunately for him, when Huangyadong was originally built, Tang Qiuli ordered all factories and research institutions to be located in huge caves for air defense reasons. The open air in the core area of ??Huangyadong was  On the ground, there are only rows of accommodation houses. It would be no pity to blow them up. It would be a big deal to rebuild. There are trees all over the mountains and plains. I am afraid that there will be no materials. The Japanese plane did not come. Okamura Neji arrived and got a super cannon.  It can be said that he looks down on his hometown.

    The bombardment of the Japanese giant artillery lasted for an hour and a half. Twenty-eight earth-shaking monsters poured tons of steel into the mountains, highlands, and woods of Huangyadong. The explosion ignited forest fires and thick smoke.  The flames shot straight into the sky, and the evening sunlight dimmed them, adding to the tense atmosphere. The soldiers, who were shaken by the huge explosion and were agitated, suppressed the discomfort in their hearts and busily prepared sound insulation materials.  Not to mention, the division commander's method is really effective. Soldiers who use these earthen sound insulation materials will greatly reduce their irritability and will not affect their normal work.

    &nbspThe Japanese artillery bombardment stopped. Taking advantage of the last ray of sunset before being swallowed up by the mountains, the Japanese army once again occupied the second defensive position of Huangyadong without firing a shot. Bursts of piercing cheers echoed in the valley.  Echoing in the air, the Japanese plaster flag and the fang-like military flag were raised on the battlefield, and under the setting sun, they were as scarlet as bloodthirsty.

    Some excited Japanese soldiers, with tears in their eyes, choked up and sang the Japanese military song, "The red collar badge on the soldier's uniform is like the thousands of cherry blossoms blooming, falling on the land of Asia, and all countries are in good health." There is a wolf in the valley.  The howl, for a while, was full of momentum. Ma Chaoyang, who was observing the movements of the Japanese troops in the hidden area, was so angry that he gnashed his teeth. After eating the little Japanese's shells for a day, he lost almost a regiment. He never had a chance to take revenge. Taking advantage of the little Japanese's carelessness,  ,** a guy.

    The call was placed to Chang Feng, and it happened that Chang Feng also had this plan. The Japanese army was not good at attacking at night. After winning two games in a row, they were arrogant and careless. They concentrated all their mortars and sneaked out to both flanks of the Japanese army to surprise them with unprepared bombardments.  In order to ensure that these howling Japanese soldiers had a feast of artillery shells, the troops quickly retreated to the cave, and the Japanese heavy artillery retaliation could not find the target.

    Just do it, all the mortars were gathered together, which shocked Chang Feng and Ma Chaoyang who came up with the idea. In addition to the ones in the hands of each army, the logistics director Zhang Quan took out all the stocks, and there were enough  There are more than 6,000 gates. The brigade commanders and regimental commanders were stunned for a moment, and it was strange. This "Zhang Stingy" usually cares a lot when receiving equipment. Why is he so generous today?

    Zhang Quan said proudly: "This is all the possessions of our army. Although we are usually very stingy, we are willing to give up at critical moments. After being bombarded by the little devils for a day, you guys have to make a good excuse."  Evil spirit, by the way, all use high-explosive shells, I will write a note, you go to the ammunition depot to get it." After saying that, with a stroke of his pen, each mortar fired ten shells, without any ambiguity.

    Chang Feng smiled bitterly and said: "Minister Zhang, we don't need so many mortars and artillery shells. What we have in the army will be enough. Only five rounds of artillery shells are enough. We don't have so many artillery." Zhang Quan was very sorry.  Order his subordinates to transport the brand new mortar back to the cave.

    Even so, the three combat brigades, plus the trained artillery recruits, still have more than 900 mortars that can be dispatched. Looking at the long queue of veterans with calm faces and the excited and nervous recruits, Chang Feng  He said seriously: "Tonight's mission is a surprise attack. Please note that each mortar is only allowed to fire five shells per mortar. The battle must be over within six minutes and withdraw to the concealment immediately. If that unit  Violation of discipline will result in immediate dismissal of the commander."

    The troops divided into two groups, sneaked out from the secret passage, and moved along the highlands on both sides of the valley toward the two wings of the Japanese army. The figures of the several brigade commanders who led the team disappeared into the darkness. Chang Feng stood in the darkness for a long time, sculpture.  At this time in the past, in the core area of ????Huangyadong, the lights were bright, the sound of machines was rumbling, and the laughter of busy soldiers and military workers in various factories could be heard from time to time. Everywhere was full of vitality, and even the medical area floated.  The potion that came had a unique smell.

    Now, in the core area of ????Huangyadong, there are no lights, and it is deathly silent. It seems that you can also hear the low whistle of the mountain wind blowing the treetops. I have been here for several months, and the constant wind has blended into the fiery life.  I am not used to the silence of Huangya Cave. In this dark night, so many restless hearts and so many pairs of wide-open eyes are waiting for the safe return of our comrades from the expedition.

    Isn't this the case for him? The only thing he worries about is that the soldiers will become jealous and eager to avenge their fallen comrades and refuse to give up the opportunity. If this is the case, the loss will be huge. The six minutes he gave  , it was strictly calculated that the Japanese artillery counterattack would last for at least fifteen minutes, and nine minutes would be enough time for the troops to retreat to a safe area.

    He listened carefully to the movement outside the valley, but there was no sound at all. The night was as quiet as solidification. It had been more than thirty minutes since the troops set off, but why hadn't they taken action? Maybe the Japanese army was on guard and had no chance to take action. Also, the people around the camp were  There must be a large number of sentries on the commanding heights. This is a matter of common sense. Chang Feng sighed, it is better not to fight than to attack forcefully.

    The brigade commanders who lead these teams are all veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time. They will never act recklessly if they don't have the chance. Why should they worry? Chang Feng shook his head mockingly, called the guards, and prepared to return to the headquarters to continue writing.  The division commander is waiting for half of the specific operational guidance for the Huangyadong defense battle.

    Suddenly, my eyes lit up. In the direction of the second line of defense outside Huangya Cave, on both sides, on the rolling hills, countless bright spots rose, as dense as meteors, as gorgeous as fireworks, in the dark night sky, with  Beautiful arcs suddenly fell from the highest point, and then, a loud sound that shook the mountains clearly reached Chang Feng's ears.

    ??Visible to the naked eye, where is the second line of defense, the fire is igniting soaring into the sky?The sky all around was dark red, and the sound of explosions kept coming. Chang Feng clapped his hands excitedly, he succeeded.
