Following Shunta Kuroyama's order, the Japs' artillery began to fire with full force.

A total of four mountain guns and twelve infantry guns began to suppress the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army.

The rumbling sound of artillery continued, and the artillery shells flew quickly towards the Eighth Route Artillery position with a harsh whistling sound.

Li Yunlong has been paying attention to every move on the battlefield. From the whistling sound of the artillery shells, he can judge the type and caliber of the cannon. This is also based on many years of combat experience.

"Ha ha!"

Li Yunlong couldn't help laughing and said: "The little devil finally took action. He only has a few mountain cannons, but he still dares to sneer in front of me."

"Immediately send an order to Wang Chengzhu, so that he doesn't have to hold back, concentrate all the artillery fire on me, aim at the enemy's artillery position, and give me a hard blast."

"yes!"

A communications soldier next to him responded loudly, and then hurriedly ran to convey the order.

After Wang Chengzhu received the order, he jumped up excitedly.

"All artillery, aim at the enemy's artillery positions and fire for me!"

"Kill them!"

"Dong dong dong!"

The dull sound of artillery continued to sound, and the artillery shells flew quickly towards the enemy's artillery position with a harsh whistling sound.

"Boom! Boom!"

Violent explosions continued to sound, and pieces of fire shot into the sky.

"Keep firing! Hit me hard!"

Wang Chengzhu's artillery battalion opened fire with all its strength, and the power was quite huge.

Wang Chengzhu's artillery battalion now has a total of two 105mm howitzers, eight 75mm mountain guns, twenty-four Type 92 infantry guns, and six 120mm heavy mortars.

This kind of strength can be said to be quite powerful. Although it is not the opponent of the Japanese artillery regiment, it is definitely more than enough to deal with the artillery of an infantry regiment.

Even if they are facing the 35th Infantry Regiment of the 9th Infantry Division, even though their artillery fire is much stronger than that of ordinary Japs.

But facing Wang Chengzhu's artillery battalion, their few artillery pieces were simply not enough.

A barrage of artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army came down quickly, and the Japs' artillerymen suffered heavy losses before they could react.

Colonel Toshio Kuroyama looked at the artillery positions filled with smoke and artillery fire, and his eyes almost popped out of his head in surprise.

"How can it be?"

"How could Tubal Road have such fierce artillery fire!"

At this time, a Japanese officer was the first to react and reminded: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, this time we are facing a new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong's troops."

"It is said that their troops are the most elite troops among the Eighth Route Army. Maybe it is because of this that they have such fierce firepower!"

Shunta Kuroyama said angrily: "Which bastard keeps telling me that the Eighth Route Army is poorly equipped? It's just nonsense."

"Immediately pass on the order and order the artillery positions to move immediately and try to preserve the strength of the artillery."

A Japanese officer quickly said: "Retreating without fighting will probably affect the morale of the imperial army!"

"Bagaya Deer!"

Shunta Kuroyama cursed angrily and said: "Go and deliver the order quickly, can't you see that the enemy's firepower far exceeds that of the imperial army?"

"Moreover, the enemy immediately locked onto our artillery position. They must be experienced veterans and should not be underestimated. If the attack continues, our artillery team will be completely destroyed."

"Hai!"

The Japanese officer didn't dare to say anything else. He quickly responded and turned around to convey the order.

Shunta Kuroyama didn't want his artillery unit to be wiped out, so he couldn't care less about losing face now.

Fortunately, his order was conveyed in time. The little devils tried their best to grab a few cannons. As for the other cannons, they were all destroyed by the artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army.

Then, as if to show off, the artillery battalion launched a fierce bombardment at the Jaap's infantry assembly area.

The Japanese made a mistake and lost hundreds of people, forcing them to retreat.

"Bagaya Deer!"

Kuroyama Shunta angrily cursed: "These damn bastards are really too rampant."

"Immediately report to the division commander and request emergency tactical guidance from the artillery wing."

"Report the situation truthfully."

"Hai!"

A Japanese officer next to him responded respectfully and turned around to convey the order.

At this time, a Japanese major asked: "Your Excellency, captain, do we still want to launch an attack?"

At this time, Shunta Kuroyama couldn't help but hesitate. The combat effectiveness of Li Yunlong's new regiment had far exceeded his estimate. Now their artillery had suffered heavy losses and had lost its combat effectiveness.

As a result, they are completely at a disadvantage.

Moreover, after the battle just now, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, if we ask for support from the Army Air Force, we probably won't come.

And it was impossible for the artillery regiment to arrive before dawn and set up a good position.

Thinking of these Black Mountain Shunta, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. If they were to attack, the Eighth Route Army's artillery fire would obviously have an absolute advantage, and it would be difficult for them to take advantage.

If they did not attack, they would have fought as a regiment for several hours without even knowing the enemy's firepower and equipment. At most, they only knew how many artillery pieces they had.

If the division commander were to blame, it would be hard for him to explain.

Kuroyama Shunta gritted his teeth and said: "Attack, we must attack. We cannot gain nothing. If the division commander blames us, we will not be able to explain."

"Immediately send an order to send out three infantry squadrons and launch an attack at the same time. I want to see how strong the opponent is."

"Notify me, and be sure to test out their true strength for me."

"Hai!"

A Japanese officer next to him responded respectfully.

Following Shunta Kuroyama's order, the Japs quickly mobilized three infantry squadrons and launched an attack on the three positions of the new regiment at the same time.

Li Yunlong saw this scene through the telescope and said with a sneer: "These little devils are really determined to find out the strength of our army."

"Inform Zhang Dabiao and ask them to bring the little devils closer and fight again. Try to kill more little devils. This time, you don't have to hold back. Beat them hard."

"yes!"

The ordering soldier responded respectfully and turned around to convey the order.

After receiving the order, Zhang Dabiao said excitedly: "I can finally let go and have a good fight."

"It's a pity that the little devil only came to three squadrons."

A soldier nearby reminded: "Batalion Commander, that Japanese squadron over there is attacking the Second Battalion's position."

"What our battalion faces is just two squadrons of little devils."

When Zhang Dabiao heard this, he couldn't help but cursed: "Just two of them!"

"This time we must try to kill more little devils."
