Chapter 27: Fire a Few Shots at the Little Devils (Seeking Follow-up Reads)

Return to the Fujita Battalion!

Hashimoto Ryuji had just entered his headquarters.

Lieutenant Colonel Fujita arrived.

"Colonel, thank you for speaking up for me at the Brigade Headquarters today."

Hashimoto Ryuji looked at the bowing and scraping Fujita.

He stepped forward slightly and helped Fujita up.

"Fujita!"

"Plus, his marksmanship is godlike, and he can effectively suppress the devils' Firepower Points."

"Hmph!" Liao Junjie snorted coldly, interrupting Yu Hua, and interjected: "Brother Zhang Kang."

"You two bicker the moment you see each other!"

"For your 1st Platoon, you pick a few people who are agile and clever."

"I think..."

"The little devils only know how to use artillery to bomb us Sichuan Army."

"We should handle this matter ourselves; why let him get involved?"

"The suggestions he put forward are very helpful for us to fight the devils."

But, relying on his precise shooting skills.

"Do your job well, work for me, and I will definitely not treat you unfairly."

"Fight the devils well, and you will be helping your brother!"

Zhang Kang came to Yu Hua's side, "The devils' artillery Observation Balloon."

"This Observation Balloon is like a sharp sword hanging over our heads."

"Yu Hua, continue," Zhang Kang turned his head and looked at Yu Hua.

Naturally, Fujita also had to follow closely by Hashimoto Ryuji's side, clinging to this powerful backer.

"It was blown flat by the devils' artillery again, damn it."

"You kid only knows how to hide in the back and snipe at the devils."

Fujita, on the side, saw that Hashimoto Ryuji had secured so much artillery support for him.

"Tonight, I plan to take a few men to quietly finish off the devils' artillery."

Highly dependent on the road.

"Fujita!"

"Hai!" Fujita nodded heavily, "Colonel, I, Fujita, will certainly not let you down."

This is simply not taking the Sichuan Army seriously at all.

Using six Mortars is still feasible.

Therefore, seeing Yu Hua, Liao Junjie could not help but want to retort a few times.

"Based on the devils' trajectory, I have roughly inferred where the devils' artillery position is."

"Tomorrow morning, deal a heavy blow to the Republic of China's army."

Deputy Regiment Commander Xie also nodded: "These devil troops... have fierce firepower!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Hua realized that Zhang Kang actually wanted to rely on infantry to destroy the devils' artillery.

On the Sichuan Army's Field Position.

"Brother knows I've been neglecting you lately."

"Brother Zhang Kang!" Liao Junjie's tone became a bit urgent, "I..."

Ever since Yu Hua arrived at the 1st Company.

"During the day, the Regimental Commander said these few Mortars should be used where they are most needed."

Yu Hua knew that Liao Junjie had always had opinions about him.

"Even if we succeed, the devils' security troops will swarm over immediately."

"Deputy Company Commander Liao, I haven't finished speaking yet, how can you dismiss someone so completely!"

"Fear no difficulties, forge ahead!"

"It's the first time we've encountered such a brutal bombardment."

The devils on the opposite side are really damn bold.

"Brother Zhang Kang, you two talk slowly, I'll listen from the side."

Yu Hua felt like he was casting pearls before swine; he hadn't joined in the bayonet fight last time.

If we don't go and fire a few shots, it would be a disservice to the little devils' good intentions.

"Hai!" After bowing and scraping, Fujita turned and left.

"Hit them hard!"

He, the Deputy Company Commander, had become a mere figurehead.

"With the strength of a battalion, plus the Mountain and Field Artillery Company belonging to the Brigade."

The little devils' artillery Observation Balloon is very bulky.

Zhang Kang always runs to the 1st Platoon, discussing both big and small matters with Yu Hua.

"Alright..." Zhang Kang stood up, "Liao Junjie, what is wrong with you?"

Liao Junjie also sat by Zhang Kang's side; he looked at the sky and stopped talking.

"The shells seem to have eyes."

Zhang Kang promised the two Regimental Commanders that they would strike tonight.

This has made Liao Junjie feel empty inside lately.

"I will provide you with artillery support tomorrow."

"I am going to find the Regimental Commander right now!"

Advance five hundred meters forward.

But, today, we are going to launch a sneak attack on the Japanese artillery.

Regiment Headquarters!

As a Lieutenant Colonel who understands a bit of Zhongtu culture, Fujita understands the meaning behind it.

Zhang Kang pats Liao Junjie on the shoulder, "Yu Hua has been on the battlefield lately."

Watching Zhang Kang and Liao Junjie leave.

"They keep observing our position, and today we just took a beating from their shelling."

"At the same time, I will also have the Mountain and Field Artillery Company belonging to the Brigade..."

"It makes you a bit dissatisfied."

Hashimoto Ryuji comes from the Shanghai Expeditionary Army Headquarters.

Especially after arriving at Dunwu Temple, starting from when we began fighting the Japanese.

"With our few men, wanting to launch a sneak attack on the Japanese artillery..."

His status is prominent, and now that the other party thinks highly of him.

The Japanese Machine Gunner and Grenade Launcher were being suppressed firmly by Yu Hua.

"I have been fighting wars for over a dozen years."

"Tonight, we will use the Mortar to fire a few shells at those bastards."

"When we first arrived at Dunwu Temple, back when the whole company was fighting with Bayonets."

"Directly destroy the little Japanese's artillery Observation Balloon."

Fujita is very clear about this.

"Now that a great enemy is before us, we of the Sichuan Army are all brothers-in-arms."

"I already said, let's not come looking for this kid."

Therefore, most of the time, he tries his best to avoid Liao Junjie.

"Using this artillery for a surprise attack tonight is using it on the cutting edge."

"You..." Liao Junjie sneers, "Afraid of death... cherishing your life!"

"Look at my head, having artillery but not knowing how to use it."

If not for the help of Hashimoto Ryuji today, his head would have been moved long ago.

There is an old saying in Zhongtu: "It is good to enjoy the shade under a big tree."

"Go back and rest early, and get your energy up."

It is as if something had been snatched away by someone else.

Relying on infantry, Yu Hua believes it will certainly cost many brothers.

Yu Hua lies back down in the trench.

"Without this Observation Balloon, the accuracy of the little Japanese's artillery will be much worse."

"We must take out their Observation Balloon, otherwise tomorrow morning..."

Zhang Kang has been staying with Yu Hua, and has not said ten sentences to Liao Junjie in total.

The artillery position is set up so far forward.

"Company Commander, doesn't our regiment have a few Mortars?"

"He is just a coward!"

The Sichuan Army only needs to quietly sneak out of the position tonight.

"Tomorrow, I will definitely take the Dunwu Temple Position!"

"If I don't take it out, my heart won't be at ease."

Zhang Kang claps his hands excitedly, "That's right!"

"For tomorrow's offensive, the Brigade Commander will redeploy a full-strength battalion for you to command."

Launch a Night Raid on the Japanese artillery position and take out the Japanese artillery Observation Balloon.

Liao Junjie nods, "Fine!"

It makes Yu Hua seem like the Deputy Company Commander of the 1st Company.

"Not daring to face the little Japanese head-on at all."

"Going there would just be a sacrifice in vain!"

"Yosh!" Hashimoto Ryuji grins, "Imperial Army officers need your kind of spirit."

"Company Commander!"

Xiang Wenbin waves his hand and directly mobilizes the six Mortars of the 1st Regiment.

After Zhang Kang explains the situation to Xiang Wenbin.

Seeing that Yu Hua does not speak, Liao Junjie says triumphantly, "I think..."

The Mortar will be able to reach the Japanese artillery Observation Balloon.

"But, with a great enemy before us, you cannot keep picking on Yu Hua."

He pats his chest and guarantees, "Colonel, please rest assured."

"Once the Japanese artillery fire comes, the fortifications we just built..."

We must make the Japanese artillery Observation Balloon vanish into thin air!

Six mortars, led by the artillerymen, followed Zhang Kang and arrived at the Field Position outside the city.
