Chapter 131: The Fourth Brigade That Is Doomed to Sorrow
In the field of vision of the Kasahara River telescope, although the brave soldiers under his command did not suffer losses, they were still stubbornly approaching the Chinese Rao position little by little.
On the other hand, the Chinese defenders in the defensive position should have absolutely no heavy machine guns, and the reason why they can support it until now is that they are equipped with a large number of miniature submachine guns called barge guns.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the Chinese had the advantage of terrain and switched to the plains, Kasahara would not have cared at all about this German-style miniature submachine gun that could be fired continuously, but the range was only 100 meters at most and the trajectory was very unstable.
His men could easily pinn them down with heavy machine guns and then kill them with rifles from 200 meters away, with little fear of their bullets coming through.
This kind of short-range weapon is completely a chicken rib, the range is not far enough, and it is a special waste of bullets, with a rifle can fight a dozen rounds of bullets, maybe only one can be used on this kind of gun.
But the terrain chosen by the Chinese was very good, and what was even worse was that he had to order his soldiers to take the initiative to attack.
Now it is no longer a question of washing away the shame, if they do not capture the Chinese Rao position here as soon as possible, and wait for the Chinese troops to come back to rescue them, then they will be uncomfortable.
Because the 4th Infantry Brigade is not as strong as before, it has lost two mountain artillery brigades, and there are less than 3,000 infantry left who can fight, and there are more than 1,000 wounded soldiers lying in the wounded barracks, and more than 1,000 have died.
Such a huge casualty rate has never been seen before since the establishment of the Kwantung Army, and the 4th Infantry Brigade has been nailed to the pillar of shame in history so far, which is something that the top brass of the 4th Infantry Brigade already knows.
Anyway, that's it, once a person tears off his face, it is shameless to be popular, but in fact, the shame value is very low. For Kasahara River, these high-ranking officers of the army, when they chose to be shameless, the sense of shame disappeared, but the real need to desperately lay down Liu Lang's triangular anticline position is: they can't withdraw, withdrawing is a capital crime, and being shameless doesn't mean that you don't want a head, right? If you can't withdraw, you can only fight, and if you can't fight, when China's reinforcements come, you may be defeated, and you will also lose your brains.
Therefore, in order to keep the braincase, it is necessary to capture the position in front of the black and kill all the Chinese, and do not give the Chinese a chance to send reinforcements.
Initial website: m.
The Chinese have reasons why they can't be backward, and the 4th Infantry Brigade also has their reasons.
And the current battlefield situation, so that Kasahara Chuan is quite satisfied, he originally planned to kill more than one infantry squadron here, but now less than 100 casualties, has reached the front of the Chinese Rao position.
The Chinese now rarely use any kind of deadly continuous firearms, it may be that the ammunition is insufficient, the only two remaining light machine gun fire points after being killed by a light machine gun can not be effectively and continuously fired under the suppression of their own heavy machine guns and grenadiers, the resistance of the Chinese soldiers is getting weaker and weaker, and the grenades thrown from time to time are not as fierce as before.
It was obvious that the victorious peace was tilting towards him, and the enemy, who was already at the end of the crossbow, had a smile on his face as the brigade commander who had put this thing in his trouser pocket.
He didn't let his guard down, though.
According to the first two firepower tests, the Chinese defenders on this high ground were by no means more than the current strength of about one platoon. Moreover, the heavy firepower of mortars and machine guns, which they had once demonstrated, did not support this side. The straight-line distance between it and the other three mountains will never exceed 1,000 meters, and there are enough possibilities for both Cheng and Jie, and Jun Dazuo, who has rich combat experience, does not believe that the supreme commander of the other side will not pay attention to the battle situation here.
But now that the other side is in danger, why haven't they come to the aid of their allies, and will there be any trickery involved? At this time, Kasahara Kawa hated the incompetence of his own newspaper, and so far he had no way of knowing who the opponent's supreme commander was, and thus he could not analyze the characteristics of the opponent's operations from the data.
According to the news from the division headquarters, a 200-man squad with an army captain as the commander on the Xifengkou front line has disappeared without a trace, and the newspaper agency judged that the commander was very likely to be the army captain.
But isn't that? The squadron here definitely has more than a thousand troops, let a captain take command? Unless China's head is in the water, at least a colonel-level officer is personally commanding.
Whether it is from the tactical arrangement of night sneak attack or the temporary deployment of mountain defensive warfare, from the perspective of the hostile side of Jun Dazuo, he has no choice but to admit that it is almost perfect.
This, where can a mere captain do? If this is the case, and the tactical arrangement of a captain will make the entire infantry brigade so embarrassed, then the Great Wall of Baga is still a woolen line, and if you don't run away, will the Chinese be able to send a lieutenant general at will be able to destroy the entire Kwantung Army in northern China?
There are clouds in the book of soldiers, knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can win a hundred battles, and now the military Dazuo belongs to the one who does not know the other and only knows himself. He didn't know his opponents, but he knew his soldiers, so he could only gamble that his brave soldiers were capable of crushing China's schemes.
However, Jun Dazuo, who has been forced to go to the "gambling table", still maintains enough caution.
"Order the two infantry squadrons in front not to advance after occupying the opponent's first-line position, first turn the attack into defense, wait for all the supporting firepower to be in place before continuing the attack, and prevent the Chinese from playing tricks," said the herald of Kasahara Kawa Chongbian.
Looking at the back of the herald in the distance, Major Takeuchi of the 10th Infantry Brigade, who had been standing beside him, asked with a little flattery: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, why don't we take advantage of the flight of the Chinese to exterminate them in one fell swoop?" The Chinese, who have lost the cover of the fortifications, are nothing more than a bunch of panicked rabbits in front of our imperial army of the Daben Empire, vulnerable. ”
"No, no, Takeuchi-kun, you're wrong, it's not that I'm going to destroy my prestige, this squadron is different from the squadrons we've seen in the past, they are not only brave, but also cunning enough.
Although they are equipped with more powerful light weapons than us, their strength is much smaller than ours, and our heavy weapons can participate in the war because of the relationship between the world, but they have not yet had any heavy firearms to participate in the battle, whether it is a plan or a run out of ammunition, we still have an advantage after all.
But they still held the soldiers of our nearly two squadrons in front of the position for up to half an hour.
Even if I will kill them one by one after the war, I still think that this is a unit whose will to fight is not inferior to that of the Imperial Army, and it deserves to be respected by you and me.
But bravery alone could not stop them for so long, they were cunning, and I ordered the infantry artillery to fight a time difference in the hope of inflicting casualties on the enemy, but judging by the number of people they participated in the defense, it was clear that it did not achieve the effect I wanted.
In the face of such a stubborn and cunning opponent, we cannot be too cautious. Kasawara shook his head and patiently explained.
"Hai, Your Excellency Wing Commander is wise!" Takeuchi Shaoza snapped a standing and bowed slightly, respectfully expressing his sincerity.
This is not light, not heavy, and the horse that is hitting the G spot in the center of the back seat undoubtedly makes Jun Dazuo very comfortable, holding the command knife handle poked on the ground with a shy stomach, and the horse golden knife stood slightly squinting and looked at the distant position, and said: "Takeuchi-kun, don't you think that it is far more pleasant to be able to completely annihilate such an opponent than to annihilate a group of cowards?" ”
"Haha, I'm sure Your Excellency, Wing Commander, will soon be happy." Takeuchi Shaosa is obviously a person who is very good at figuring out the thoughts of his boss, and he is also very conversational.
Chi Dakui left an infantry squad of about 10 people to continue to block the enemy, and the rest of the men carried the remains of the dead soldiers and the seriously wounded into the second-line position 30 meters away, and also took away all the equipment that could be taken away.
