Chapter 61: The Sun Cries Blood (8)
At this moment, the Japanese army's mountain artillery and field artillery opened fire instantly, the sharp sound of shells breaking through the air roared and whistling on the entire Yuwang Mountain, the huge power of the heavy artillery with a terrible shock wave roared up a piece of soil and stone on the entire Yuwang Mountain, the sparks of the field artillery broken shrapnel and the burning sparks were everywhere, and the places where the hats and coats were placed completely turned into a sea of fire, what was even more ridiculous was that the rear side of the position was also camouflaged with hookahs and mortar positions were also bombarded by the Japanese shells. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It is worth mentioning that this hookah, mostly made of bamboo and wood, especially the wood is divided into black, yellow or other colors, it looks like a small steel cannon, and most of the stone army of the Yunnan army have the habit of smoking hookah, even when they join the army to fight, they carry it with them, there are many people who do not know the real use of the hookah, once thought that the soldiers of the Yunnan army were too elite, almost everyone has a small steel cannon.
Zhang Chong's strategy almost attracted the Japanese artillery shells to these places, hiding from the anti-artillery holes, and the soldiers in the cat's ear holes had a lot less pressure, but the situation was also not optimistic, after all, the Japanese army and the puppet army of this attack combined reached more than 7,000 people. And strictly speaking, they now have less than 5,000 soldiers stationed in Yuwang Mountain.
For this reason, Zhang Chong's order to all his subordinates was to use the defensive line to resist heavily, and the front line was not to defend and retreat to the second line, and the second line was to wait for assistance, and to wait for reinforcements to arrive before regaining the position. Sure enough, the 184th Division did not have many troops on the front line, and in the face of so many Japanese and puppet attacks, it suddenly felt a lot of pressure.
On the forward position, the Japanese army rushed towards Yuwang Mountain like a leech, and there was the cover of tank artillery fire to constantly pull in the distance to bomb the soldiers of the 60th Army, Wan Baobang hurriedly ordered the heavy artillery battalion to prepare to suppress the fire to suppress the Japanese heavy artillery, in order to reduce the pressure on the forward position, but after searching for a while, the heavy artillery battalion called: "Brigade commander, the Japanese heavy artillery position will be transferred after a round, and it cannot be locked at all, and the mountain artillery is not easy to lock"!
The fierce exchange of fire on the forward positions continued, the machine guns fired wildly, the rifles fired fiercely, and even the mortars were also frantically firing at the dense places of the Japanese troops, in order to give the Japanese army the greatest damage, but the Japanese artillery fire was not covered, and the forward positions were also heavily killed and wounded under the dense artillery fire, and there were constantly light and heavy machine guns directly blown up by the artillery fire, and the most serious was the heavy artillery.
Once a heavy artillery shell falls into a trench, almost all the soldiers within a radius of ten meters will be blown to pieces, even the immortal will be bled by the shock wave, and some will be shocked to death.
What's more, a trench smashed like three or two heavy artillery shells, and the soldiers of the entire line of defense line were unexpectedly lifeless under the roaring artillery fire, and at the front line, the devils with two brigades of soldiers and puppet troops were rushing towards the forward position with great momentum. There are still 3,000 Japanese troops who are missing.
Although there were only 2,000 Japanese troops and 2,000 puppet troops attacking at the front, the number was several times more than that of the soldiers on the forward position of the 184th Division, and the Japanese army during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression often attacked a main regiment of the Chinese army with a brigade, and a wing was changed to fight with a main division or even an army. And it can also defeat the Chinese army.
Unlike the anti-Japanese drama, a team of a few people can beat the Japanese army to a great loss, with heavy casualties. The reason why the Japanese army is so strong in combat is that their rifles are very different from ours, the 38 Dagai rifle has a long range and high accuracy, and its bayonet length is significantly longer than the Zhongcheng and Type 79 rifles that any unit of the Chinese army was equipped with at that time. Three hundred large covers plus bayonets are nearly two meters, and one inch long is one inch strong in white-knuckle combat. In addition, the Japanese army was a military power at that time, and there were artillery strikes, air strikes, and even poison gas strikes. It is usually a charge when the opponent's position is bombarded with a rain of shells and the entire defensive line is in chaos. However, the tactics of the Chinese army are still relatively dull, and the 60th Army stationed here really cannot retreat under any circumstances, and there can not avoid the enemy's edge, but can only touch hard, gun-to-gun, knife-to-knife fighting.
In the face of the Japanese army's crazy bombing and fierce charge, the officers and soldiers on the forward position quickly suffered heavy casualties, but fortunately, the soldiers of the 60th Army were not afraid to retreat, and their morale was still tenacious.
Many fronts were blown up by Japanese artillery fire to the trenches and breasts, but in desperation, the soldiers on the forward positions dragged the bodies of the soldiers who had just died and the corpses left by the Japanese soldiers directly into a blockade and shot them.
The battle has been fought to such a tragic bottom, you can imagine how tragic the battle on the forward position is, but the Japanese army is still not happy, the fighting quality of the Yunnan army is relatively high, and the number of machine guns is relatively large, and the charging Japanese army is also a large number of casualties.
Just when the Japanese army rushed to a distance of only more than ten meters from the forward position, the soldiers on the forward position threw grenades to kill and injure the Japanese soldiers and then began to retreat towards the second-line position, after all, the number of Japanese troops is too large, and it is too unwise to hold on at this time, and they have already arranged explosives everywhere on the forward position, and they will not return when the Japanese army enters the position.
Just when the brothers on the forward position were all withdrawn into the second-line position, Lu Hai, who was in charge of the detonation, violently pressed down the detonator when the Japanese army entered the three defense lines, only to hear a huge roar, and the entire forward position instantly turned into a sea of fire and roared, and hundreds of Japanese troops who had just entered the forward position were instantly blown up by explosives and flew sideways, even if they died, they would have broken their arms and legs, and suffered heavy losses.
Although the puppet army at the front knew that the 184th Division in front was an iron pea, let them go up and die in vain, but the Japanese army's thousand cannons were set on the back, and Shen San, the commander of the puppet army, had to give the order to attack.
Just as these puppet troops crossed the front-line positions and came to the bottom of the hillside, Lu Hai and many officers and soldiers who had withdrawn opened fire one after another, and the light and heavy Qijiang, rifles, and grenades swarmed towards the puppet troops rushing up the hillside.
The combat effectiveness of the puppet army is not comparable to that of the Japanese army, and for a time there were heavy casualties, and more than 100 people in front of them were killed by dense bullets in just a few minutes, and the puppet army behind did not dare to rush forward for a while, while the officers and soldiers above hated these betrayal and surrender to the Japanese army, and their hatred even became much stronger than that of hating the Japanese army.
The Japanese army is the main culprit of the invasion of the Chinese nation, and these puppet soldiers are those scum who act for the tiger, but when the nation is in danger, they are in the enemy camp and put their guns on their own people, how can this kind of national scum make people not hate, so they have opened fire fiercely on the front position, and the fear of death and injury below, some soldiers even set the bundled explosive bags on fire and threw them down directly, accompanied by violent explosions, a large number of puppet soldiers were killed on the spot, and the undead also hurriedly retreated.
At this time, a lieutenant colonel of the puppet army cowered in a section of the trench and gave an order to retreat, this outcrop was seen by Lu Hai, Lu Hai picked up his rifle and aimed at the wreckage below, just when the lieutenant colonel saw that his troops were suffering heavy casualties and began to show up again to give orders, Lu Hai pulled the trigger suddenly, and a bullet instantly hit the lieutenant colonel's head. At the same time, hundreds of grenades rained down on the feet and sides of these puppet soldiers!
"Boom"!
"Boom"!
There was another violent explosion, many puppet soldiers were killed on the spot, in just half an hour, these puppet soldiers were killed and wounded more than 600 people, the immortal had already broken the courage and began to retreat one after another, at this time, the Japanese mortars, field artillery was intensively bombarded towards the second-line position.
For a time, the entire second-line position was also exploding and roaring, and the firepower was also suppressed by the Japanese artillery fire, especially in those places where there were light and heavy machine guns, the artillery fire was very fierce, and the Japanese army also began to charge at this time, and the second-line position on the mountain became difficult because of the Japanese attack, and they were stationed here to put it bluntly, it was not enough for a regiment of troops, in the face of the strong attack of the Japanese army, and the artillery bombardment was instantly overstretched, and what was more serious was that the Japanese tanks also began to charge and open fire, Some machine-gun positions were even locked by tanks.
At this moment, Li Fan's mortar company also began to fire violently, and dragged out the two battle defense guns that had finally been gathered to aim at the Japanese tank and fired, only to hear an explosion, the Japanese forward position was also exploded everywhere, that is, a tank was also hit and began to retreat, at this time, the light and heavy machine guns that had recovered their breath also began to fire fiercely at the infantry around the tank, and a group of more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were exposed when the tank began to retreat, and was instantly hit by a dense number of bullets, at the same time, A Japanese armored car was also blown up by anti-aircraft guns.
However, the Japanese army below still rushed up like a crazy bison, the distance between the two armies was only more than ten meters, the only thing to be thankful for was that the Japanese army at the front and they were too close to the Japanese army's artillery fire for fear of hurting their own people and no longer fired, but the Japanese heavy artillery began to pull up the in-depth bombardment, the target was the mountaintop troops behind Lu Hai, and even some of them had been blown up to the back mountain, which was Zhang Chong's division headquarters!
This time, more than 3,000 Japanese troops went straight to Daxiaoyang Village, trying to attack the flank of Yuwang Mountain from the use of the trees and village cover of Xiaoyang Village. Only then did I understand that the fierce attack at the front turned out to be just a diversion attack, and the 3,000 Japanese troops were the real main attack!
