Chapter 408: Yamazaki Volley
Sun Dehai found that the devil infantry had already taken advantage of the smoke of the artillery fire that was about to disperse, and carried the Type 38 rifle to a distance of less than 50 meters from a trench on the outermost part of his side.
"Brothers, the little devil is coming up, call me!" Although the smoke had not completely dissipated, Sun Dehai, who was choking on the thick smoke of gunpowder, was very uncomfortable, Sun Dehai still killed the devil army Cao who rushed to the forefront with one shot at the first time, and loudly ordered the soldiers of the next company under his command to start a fierce counterattack.
Hearing Sun Dehai's order, the soldiers of the first company came out of the anti-artillery holes of the trenches one after another, lying on the edge of the trenches, and raised their guns one after another to shoot fiercely.
The blazing bullets unfolded in an instant, and the devils of the squad that first attacked tentatively were killed more than 30 people on the spot, and the rest were only more than 30 or 40 people left!
The devil's infantry attack was blocked, and soon the little devil's squadron of heavy machine guns immediately came up. The heavy machine guns fired fiercely, and in a moment they suppressed the fire of the two heavy machine guns and several light machine guns in Sun Dehai's hands.
Without waiting for Sun Dehai to react, the Japanese attacking troops immediately brought in grenadiers at close range and fired high-explosive shells, which fell fiercely from the air one after another with a caliber of 50 millimeters, and Sun Dehai was reimbursed for a heavy machine gun deployed in the frontal blocking position. The heavy machine gun shooter died on the spot, and Sun Dehai, who was watching, gritted his teeth.
But I have to admit that the little devil's infantry and artillery coordination is still very familiar, and the coordination of infantry and artillery is very familiar. It is worthy of being an elite unit of the Japanese army under the jurisdiction of the Itagaki Division of the Japanese Army, and its combat effectiveness is very strong.
However, Sun Dehai's company was not a vegetarian, after all, there were at least four heavy machine guns and ten light machine guns in the position, plus the artillery support of Wang Chengzhu in the rear at any time, and it quickly withstood the onslaught of the Japanese infantry and artillery coordination.
Yamazaki, the commander of the 41st Wing of the Japanese Army, who was on the front line to direct the attack, had a solemn look in his eyes, although the 1st Infantry Brigade attacked tentatively with a small team. But I didn't expect the other party to be so difficult to fight, and under the clean counterattack, a squad suffered more than 30 casualties.
"Bagaya Road, a bunch of rubbish! Order the 1st Infantry Brigade to launch a fierce attack on me, and be sure to seize the outer defensive positions of the Chinese army! Artillery squadrons, heavy bombardment, covering infantry attacks! 2nd and 3rd Infantry Brigades, ready to relay the attack at any time! Heavy machine gun fire cover! After putting down the binoculars, Yamazaki Lingkong, who was already angry, ordered coldly to Junichiro Tashiro, the chief of staff beside him.
Junichiro Tashiro was aware of the losses of the tentative attack team, and although he was willing to discourage a large-scale attack, he switched to a roundabout attack. But Junichiro Tashiro also knew that the terrain of Zhaojiayu was very unsuitable for a roundabout attack, because a roundabout attack could only see hills in a roundabout, and the cliffs alone were enough to choke. What's more, Zhaojiayu straddles both sides of the Sangqian River, and it is difficult to detour even if it is a detour.
Zhaojiayu South Village, which could not capture Zhaojiayu South Village and made a detour to the north bank of the Sangqian River, was also a lone army, and it was bound to be flanked by the enemy troops in Nancun.
Junichiro Tashiro had no choice but to wave his hand and ask a Japanese staff officer to give the order to attack immediately.
The tentative Japanese attack lasted less than two minutes, and soon under the order of Yamazaki Volley, the Japanese concentrated the strength of an infantry brigade and attacked Sun Dehai's blocking position with two frontal squadrons and a position flank cover.
An infantry brigade of the little devils, with an absolute superiority in troops, attacked Sun Dehai's company to block the position. The ten-to-one ratio of troops made Sun Dehai's resistance very difficult.
"Da Da Da !!!"
The Japanese heavy machine gun shooters were following the Japanese infantry forward to shoot and cover, and the blazing bullets passed over the heads of the devil infantry on the way to attack, and fiercely smashed into the blocking position of the new regiment.
The little devil's attack was very fierce, the offensive was like a tide, and the coordinated cooperation of the infantry and artillery was as familiar as ever.
The fanatical Japanese infantry, shouting slogans on board, under the cover of their own machine guns and artillery fire, actually killed Sun Dehai's position less than 70 meters away.
Seeing that nearly five or six hundred devil soldiers had been killed by the little devils to a position of more than 70 meters, Sun Dehai was anxious, and directly contacted Wang Chengzhu, the artillery captain in the rear, through the field phone, and immediately opened fire.
After receiving the request for artillery support, Wang Chengzhu, who had already marked the coordinates of the only way for the Japanese army to attack, sneered, directly raised the small red flag, slashed it down, and ordered the artillery to load the shells and fire according to the shelling coordinates that had already been determined.
"Boom, boom, boom!!" Blazing shells whistled down from the snowflake-covered sky, and fell one after another on the attacking Japanese ranks.
Immediately, a violent explosion exploded in the midst of the devil's attacking team. Fragments of shells scattered and flew in all directions, tearing apart the bodies of the little devil infantrymen and beating the little devil crying for his father and mother.
Taking advantage of his own artillery counterattack, Sun Dehai hurriedly ordered the infantry to counterattack, machine guns, rifles, and more than a dozen submachine guns specially allocated by Li Yunlong to the first company, and fired fiercely at the attacking devil team with all the firepower.
At this time, the devils of the 1st Infantry Brigade of the 41st Wing of the attacking devils, the two Japanese squadrons that were attacking head-on were bombarded by Wang Chengzhu's artillery fire, and the attacking teams suddenly collapsed and scattered.
In particular, Wang Chengzhu deserved to be the excellent artillery commander of the new regiment, and he was stunned to blow up one bomb curtain wall after another with mortars, and bombarded from the side close to Sun Dehai's blocking position in the direction of the devil's attack.
Rulin's barrage wall pressed towards the devil's attacking team step by step, forcing the little devil's attacking team to retreat.
But the devil team attacking in the rear didn't know, and when they found out that something was wrong, the devil's attack team was suddenly chaotic.
"Baga Ya Road! Resist, resist! "The commander of the 41st Infantry Brigade of the 1st Infantry Brigade, Miyawaki Shin Shaosa, personally commanded the attack at the rear of the attacking team, and had already seen the barrage wall played by Wang Chengzhu forcing the Japanese troops of the two squadrons attacking head-on to retreat step by step.
However, the barrage wall that Wang Chengzhu broke out gradually crushed the attacking Japanese soldiers.
Even if the Japanese army of Miyawaki Shin's harsh attack continued to attack and advance, it would be to no avail. After all, in the face of the barrage wall made by Wang Chengzhu, the soldiers of the little devil can also see it, so naturally they will not really look for death.
The attacking team was chaotic, and Miyawaki Shin immediately commanded the Japanese troops to temporarily retreat, and contacted the artillery squadron of the wing to counterattack with artillery fire to cover the temporary retreat of the attacking team.
The attack failed, the commander of the 41st Wing, Yamazaki, turned blue in the air, and the onslaught of an infantry brigade lost his troops, and he was stunned by the counterattack of a company of the enemy, which was simply a shame for the 41st Wing!
