Time, 12:10, the island team started to take action.
The first method they used was a total of eight 100mm howitzers that were hastily pushed out from the tunnel fortifications. According to some shooting elements that had been set earlier, they started a round of rapid fire at the position on the north side of Songzi Mountain.
Because in such a shelling, they didn't have to worry about accidentally injuring their own personnel hiding in the fortifications. For a time, the density of firepower could be said to be unscrupulous.
"Bombard, lie down, hurry up, hurry up if you don't want to die~"
Raising his voice, the mad dog yelled crazily, because he roared too hard, and even at this moment, the veins on his neck were clearly visible.
It's just such a trivial matter that Mad Dog can't care about at all.
After hearing some unusual whistling sounds from the air, the mad dog who was following the soldiers of the supplementary regiment and rushing towards the Japanese fortresses reacted in an instant.
Damn it! This is artillery fire, a 100mm howitzer fire.
The main reason why Mad Dog is so sure is that the veterans of the Central Continent Team are very familiar with the whistling sound currently roaring in the air.
It is definitely a 100mm caliber howitzer of the island country that has a relatively exotic caliber and is not considered mainstream.
When they were defending in Hengyang City and facing the continuous attacks of three Japanese divisions, they were often greeted by howitzers of this caliber on the position.
I have been bombarded by this thing for more than a month, and I can say that I am very familiar with the sound of this thing hitting me.
Therefore, they know that although the caliber of this thing is not mainstream, it is extremely powerful.
It would be fine if there were anti-cannon holes, and it would basically be no big deal; but if you encounter a covered shelling in the wild, it can only be a disaster for the infantry who are forced to do so without protection.
Fortunately, there are many communication trenches that were dug by the Japanese army before but are now abandoned on this battlefield.
There are also several craters blown up by our own artillery shells, which can be used by attackers to take shelter.
As long as you hide in it and don't run around, you can still avoid the fragments and shock waves of the most lethal artillery shells, unless you are really unlucky and the shells land near your body.
Otherwise, there is really a good chance of survival.
After shouting a few words, Mad Dog suddenly felt a huge sense of crisis in his head, and had an intuition that danger was about to come.
This intuition has appeared before, just like the instinct of some beasts facing danger.
I can't explain the principle, but it is very accurate and easy to use.
Therefore, when this unreasonable battlefield intuition appeared, the mad dog tumbled into the traffic trench dug by the Japanese in advance.
As a result, he hid in, and a cannonball landed right where he was originally standing.
Although Mad Dog successfully escaped being hit by the shell, and his body was blown to pieces, the dust raised by the explosion also buried Mad Dog's entire body.
The scene where the mad dog was buried was of course discovered by AT and Hu Biao who were nearby.
But just when they were about to rush forward and pull out the mad dog, a round of intensive and deadly firepower suddenly erupted from the Japanese mother fort and three sub-forts ahead.
Instinctively, Hu Biao stuck out a little of his head and looked over there.
I saw that in several of the Japanese fortresses, there were at least 4 or more heavy machine guns and 6 general-purpose machine guns such as MG42, and they suddenly roared.
In an instant, the dense bullets knocked down the soldiers of the reinforcement regiment who were fleeing in panic during the shelling, one by one.
In fact, because of the sudden burst of heavy firepower, there were two large-caliber machine guns, and the bullets as thick as a thumb directly smashed the human body to pieces.
There is no doubt that this is the opponent team's final move, and it is a big move.
The only good thing is that everyone in the Zhongzhou team, who had been prepared for this for a long time, evaded one by one in time, and there were no major casualties.
Even the unlucky mad dog crawled out soon after, covered in dirt.
His mouth was spitting "Bah, bah~" which was full of mud, but the situation seemed to be okay.
Facing an unknown opponent team, this kind of ultimate attack was the first thing to happen; AT, huddled in the trench, asked Hu Biao:
"Lao Hu, what should we do now? Should we retreat and rest for a while before coming back?"
"Don't worry, I'll take a look at the situation." Faced with such an inquiry, Hu Biao replied, and at the same time, he quietly poked his head out of the trench and looked towards the target.
Hu Biao now plans to confirm the identity of the opponent's team before making plans...
In the smoke and dust that filled the battlefield with Lao Gao, Hu Biao saw a group of about 30 Japanese soldiers, hunched over, rushing out of the mother fort.
The final destination is in front of the mother castle, in a trench with barbed wire protection in front.
After clearly seeing one or two of the leading figures, their appearance, weapons and other details.
In Hu Biao's mouth, he immediately cursed in an extremely complicated tone: "F*ck! They are actually the bastards of the island team. It seems that all these weird things are caused by them."
The reason for this was that among the Japanese soldiers in that group, Hu Biao saw two oriental men who were obviously taller than ordinary Japanese soldiers, at least one head taller.
Although they were wearing Japanese military uniforms from World War II.
However, the weapons in the hands of the two men were actually an STG44 assault rifle and a G43 semi-automatic rifle; according to normal principles, these equipment should not be in the hands of the Japanese at Songshan Fortress.
With just these details, Hu Biao was able to determine that this was an island team.
After all, the eyes of these two people are not very obvious in terms of squinting, so we rule out these possibilities of Team Oppa and Team North Korea.
After confirming this point, Hu Biao's heart suddenly clicked.
Even two months ago, in the information provided by the Maozi team, some basic information about the island team quickly emerged in his mind:
The total number of the island team, including the commander "Shogun", is 36.
The official members of the team, between 23 and 28 people, are all bloodline experts; the commander among them, the Shogun, can be confirmed to be a mid-level bloodline expert.
The second in command is a woman named Michiko. Although this person's bloodline is only at a rudimentary level, her fighting ability is extremely strong.
In terms of equipment, the official members of the island team have a large number of green-quality samurai swords as weapons, as well as a small amount of green-quality armor.
Moreover, he possesses quite excellent katana-using moves and a variety of system skills.
Other circumstances are currently unknown...
Frankly speaking, the above information was really simple, but even this simple information made Hu Biao's scalp go numb.
Without him! The island team has been around for too long and has too much wealth.
If we really want to compare, the Zhongzhou team is not a poor team, but apart from some advantages in numbers, the gap in other aspects is really big.
But while his scalp was numb, a huge anger emerged in Hu Biao's heart.
This kind of anger is not only because the island country team is their old enemy, but the previous Central Continent team can be said to have been ruined in their hands.
As for this weird system mission, they probably secretly did something to cause such a battle.
Their purpose is nothing more than to nip the new Central Continent team in the bud; the question is, can the Central Continent team make it happen?
In this way, it can be said that old and new hatreds have flooded into Hu Biao's heart.
In addition, there is another situation that happened in the modern plane, a few days before the mission started:
A certain big shot in the island country openly declared that bombers would be dispatched to bomb the PLA if necessary in the future.
Damn it! Do they think this was 80 years ago? If they really dare to come, they dare to bury them.
In short, after taking all the above circumstances into account, Hu Biao felt angrier than ever before.
In such a huge anger, although after being promoted to the intermediate bloodline, the sequelae of Hu Biao's 'rabies' were obviously alleviated, and the chance of the attack was also greatly reduced.
But I was still stimulated to the point where the sequelae would start to set in.
Under the emergency situation, Hu Biao could only bite his lip hard enough to draw blood, relying on this method to keep himself awake.
Even so, his breathing became extremely rapid.
The sound of heavy breathing made AT and Mad Dog notice something strange about Hu Biao. In surprise, they also looked in the direction of Hu Biao's eyes.
Soon after, relying on his rich experience in team battles, he also discovered the details of the appearance of the island team, and a look of shock suddenly appeared on his face.
There was only one thought in my mind: Damn it! We are in big trouble.
The entire Central Continent team was indeed psychologically prepared for this mission to be a team battle, but the fact that the opponents in the team battle were so strong was completely unexpected.
Suddenly there was a huge pressure that made them all breathless.
Without him! There seems to be a big difference in strength between the two.
Although the Zhongzhou team has been growing well and has shown a promising future, the problem is that it will take some time for Hu Biao and the others to develop successfully.
As for the island country team, this is a front-line team that has experienced countless missions and accumulated rich experience.
Shouldn't we fight to the death with teams like Nordic and Maozi? Or, should several teams join forces to fight against such first-line teams?
After thinking of this, AT and Mad Dog's faces became extremely ugly.
Other members of the Zhongzhou team, such as Bai Xiang, Jason and others, almost had the same reaction after discovering the above details.
"What the hell! Why is it an island nation team? Or maybe we can't wait for three or two missions later, and wait until everyone is stronger before meeting these damn guys."
This was the most real thought in their minds at that time.
At the same time as this thought appeared, there was also a huge anger and strong desire to fight in my heart.
This kind of anger and desire is completely the instinctive reaction of Chinese people who have been influenced by the lessons of their ancestors and history from childhood to adulthood when they encounter this kind of thing.
A relatively appropriate way to describe it is:
The descendants of these devils actually stay dishonestly on those broken islands and dare to continue to come out to cause trouble? So today we will avenge the old and new grudges together.
The fighting will that came out of the instant battle was many times stronger than when I was fighting German sticks in the last two missions...
******
After taking a deep breath, Hu Biao adjusted his mentality in a very short period of time and successfully suppressed the hidden danger of sequelae.
It even determines what the Central Continent team should do in the coming time.
He spoke to AT and Mad Dog and gave his answer:
"Just back off. If you back off, it will definitely be too late to complete the first phase of the mission, so keep rushing forward; isn't it the island country team? Everyone is carrying one neck and one head, and they are fighting hard."
After hearing this, Mad Dog and AT looked at each other, took a deep breath, and completely eliminated all other thoughts from their heads.
There was only one thought left in my head:
"I can die here today, but even before I die, I have to bite off a piece of flesh from the island nation's team."
While he was talking, Hu Biaoxin took out a flare gun from his belt and fired with a 'pop' sound in the air.
Let a red signal flare explode in the air.
This allows people within a radius of several kilometers or even farther away to be clearly identifiable.
After firing such a signal flare, Hu Biao wanted to give it a try and summoned his own air and ground artillery support.
To be honest, the support from the air and artillery had no effect on the Japanese and opponent teams hiding in the fortifications.
But it can pose a huge threat to the opponent's artillery positions, at least it won't let them continue to be bombed like this.
In addition, this signal flare was launched into the sky for another purpose, which is to send a signal to his subordinates in a noisy battlefield environment:
All members of the Zhongzhou team present, the time has come for a fight to the death, don’t think about anything, the python will be over.
For those team members who have not arrived at the battlefield yet, hurry up and come over to support us. The team needs your support now.
After firing such a signal flare, Hu Biao huddled in a depression in the traffic trench with the M1918A2 in his hand.
We hope that our artillery and air units can react a little faster, so that the soldiers of the supplementary regiment will lose fewer lives in the artillery attack.
In this way, when the fight starts later, everything can be coordinated and the pressure will be reduced, otherwise this battle will be really difficult to fight...
'Cannon attack, Hanshuang, get down quickly~'
This is when a 100 mm caliber artillery shell suddenly appeared, and the whistling sound hitting the air reached the ears; even before the shell fell on the ground, the warehouse manager, an old bird, shouted such a sentence.
You must know that in the previous battles, Cangguan had been focusing 60% of his energy on the unknown team on the opposite side that had not taken action.
As a result, based on the dense artillery shells in the air, there was a movement coming one after another. Of course, it was known that the other side was taking action.
Based on the quality of a sniper, he shouted such a sentence in his mouth immediately, which was regarded as a decision to save his own life first.
After saying that, the warehouse manager hugged the 38-gauge rifle with a sniper scope and rolled around on the ground in a panic.
This rolling started less than half a second later.
A bullet landed at his original sniping position, and even after the bullet hit the rocks on the ground, the stone fragments that flew up hit his face with a dull pain.
Sure enough, he had long been targeted by the opposing team's sniper.
Then the next thing he needs to do is to find the other party and kill him.
With this thought in mind, the warehouse manager began to crawl toward the next sniper position he had planned.
After being reminded of the frost once, he didn't react at all. He continued to lie on the ground and fired at the shooting hole of a fort with the Garand semi-automatic rifle in his hand.
The reason is simple. During his five-year career in the PLA, he experienced some accidents.
Specifically, the ear was blasted by a 152mm caliber howitzer, which caused some hearing problems in the ear.
In daily life, such problems have little impact, but once on today's fierce battlefield, some important voices may be ignored.
He was so shabby now, and he was still cursing and complaining. Hu Biao was worried that Mao would not give him a Bayi bar.
To be honest! This is the first time in Hanshuang’s life that he has used this kind of rifle from World War II.
Therefore, I am really not used to the huge recoil when the Garand semi-automatic rifle fires; every time I fire, the butt of the gun hits my shoulder and it hurts.
However, after he passed the eight bullets in the gun chamber one by one.
Not to mention being able to hit the shooting hole accurately, he had never even accurately hit the outer shell of the sub-fort, which really made him embarrassed.
While cursing, Hanshuang took out a double-row eight-round magazine from the Garand ammunition carrying bag on his waist and prepared to reload it.
Then, a 100mm caliber grenade fell not too far away from him.
Fortunately, he was only knocked to the ground in the shock wave of the shell; his head was protected by a soldier's steel helmet, so nothing happened to him.
Unfortunately, in this first shelling attack, Hanshuang's psychological shadow caused by the 152mm howitzer accident suddenly emerged clearly.
He could only bite the bullet, drag the headless corpse in the distance, and cover it on his body, using it as a bunker.
Good guy! The sour feeling at that time was blocked...
