Chapter 276: Cavalry Company, Charge! (below)
The combat effectiveness of the Onizuka Brigade is not strong, and when it is impossible to see the target clearly, it still causes casualties to more than a dozen soldiers in Hao Dabao's cavalry company.
These Japanese soldiers were even more Wang Ba drilled into the stove pit--- holding his breath and harboring fire.
When they are far away, they can't see the target, and when they do, before they have time to aim, the horse is already in front of them.
After one of the unlucky men fired a shot, the bolt of the gun jammed, and before he could pull away, a leaping horse fell from the sky, and two front hooves stepped on his right collarbone and left rib one after the other.
The crisp sound of broken bones sounded, and the Japanese soldier immediately fainted in pain.
And the remaining ammunition men of the heavy machine gun squadron were even more unlucky.
It stands to reason that each of them should be equipped with a rifle, but since their division was transferred back to the Japanese mainland for reorganization, the loss of weapons needed to be approved and allocated by the Xinjing Command before it could be replenished.
In almost half a year, Hideo Onizuka applied for a total of three times, but only the first time he applied, he was replenished with thirty rifles.
Now, with the combined transport and machine-gun squadrons, at least a hundred soldiers were without guns, and their guns were temporarily supplied to the other four infantry squadrons.
In fact, in the chaotic situation at that time, they could have pulled the trigger of the heavy machine gun again at the first time.
However, the appearance of the cavalry company caused them to lose their minds for a short time.
It was only for a second or two that they lost their only chance.
When Minamiki Akiyama was making combat deployments, he deliberately set up six heavy machine guns of the machine gun squadron in the defensive team that could take care of the east and south directions at the same time, so as to facilitate mutual support between each other.
The 1st Squadron was located closer to the positions of the 1st and 2nd Regiments than the machine-gun squadrons, and after the machine-gun squadrons had suppressed and inflicted heavy damage on the 1st and 2nd Regiments on the hills, they immediately launched a charge.
However, the six heavy machine guns were embarrassed after a short flash of Niu 13, and the soldiers of the first squadron did not know what to do until they heard the sound of horses' hooves getting louder and louder, and then began to curse their mothers in their hearts:
"You're an Okasan, don't you bring such a pit teammate, right? Six heavy machine guns, with plenty of ammunition, but let the cavalry rush over, did this Nima join the anti-war group? ”
It's a pity that it's useless to scold anything.
The cavalry companies and the 1st and 2nd regiments rushed into the positions one after another, and it was too late.
After Hao Dabao led the cavalry company to rush through the position of the first squadron, he rushed straight to the machine gun squadron and the transport team.
The advantage of the cavalry is the momentum, and once stopped, the advantage disappears, and the target sitting on the horse is greater, so they cannot stop.
The unfortunate 1st Squadron paid the price of more than 60 casualties in this charge of the cavalry company, more than one-third of the total strength.
However, the quality and sense of execution of the Japanese soldiers were indeed very strong, and after the cavalry company rushed over, they quickly assembled together at a certain distance and put on a white-knuckle battle formation.
In contrast, the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd regiments were obviously much worse.
Combat bravery is the quality that a warrior should have, but bravery is not the same as death.
When the enemy has already set up a formation, he rushed into the crowd single-handedly, which was not fierce, but tiger.
The Japanese soldiers were just right apart from each other to take care of each other, and if one of them was in danger, people from the front and left could come to help at any time.
In this case, if you don't have a large-scale lethal epic-level martial arts such as the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending Palm, the wisest way is to rush over with your comrades around you and strive to destroy the enemy's formation in the shortest possible time, otherwise, there will inevitably be great casualties.
There was a large age gap between the soldiers of the 1st and 2nd regiments, some of them were fast and some were slow.
The warrior who ran at the front had a very strong body and an unstoppable momentum, but unfortunately, before the big knife in his hand could be cut down, three bayonets pierced his body almost at the same time.
The soldier's face was full of unwillingness, but he could only watch as the three devils in front of him pulled out the bayonet that had been stabbed into his body with a hideous face, and his vision gradually became blurred, and finally fell into endless darkness......
When Hao Dabao rushed out of the position of the first squadron with the cavalry company, he pulled the gun out of his waist.
Now Liu Cheng's independent battalion is definitely "wealthy" in the entire anti-Japanese contingent in the northeast, and in order to increase the firepower of the cavalry company, each soldier of the cavalry company is equipped with a shell gun.
At close range, the barge gun against the rifle is absolutely complete.
When Akiyama Nanki saw the cavalry company rushing into the position of the 1st squadron, he immediately ordered the direction of the six heavy machine guns to be adjusted, pointed the guns at the 1st squadron, and waited for the cavalry company to rush out, and then opened fire after a safe distance from the 1st squadron.
But the position of the 1st squadron was in front of the left of the machine-gun squadron, and the cavalry company, as soon as it rushed out, exceeded the angle of fire from the heavy machine guns.
Hideo Onizuka's machine gun squad was equipped with the latest Type 92 heavy machine guns, but for various reasons, there should have been twelve, but only six actually came into his hands.
The Type 92 heavy machine gun body and gun carriage could not be disassembled and separated, and weighed nearly 50 kilograms.
Moreover, heavy machine guns, which are heavy firepower weapons, must be kept level when erected, and the tripod must also be smashed into the ground to ensure stability when firing.
From the time Akiyama Nanki gave the order to the cavalry company rushing out of the position of the first squadron, it was only a dozen seconds before and after, and the three legs of the six heavy machine guns had not yet been pulled out of the soil.
The distance between the machine-gun squadron and the position of the first squadron was only fifty or sixty meters, but after three or five seconds, the distance between the cavalry company and the machine-gun squadron was reduced to about twenty meters.
Barge guns, in the absence of submachine guns and light and heavy machine guns, melee combat is definitely a sharp weapon.
The power is okay, the rate of fire is fast, and the most important thing is that you don't have to shoot a shot to return the cartridge case.
Nearly a hundred barge guns fired at the same time, and the intensity of the gunfire was almost the same as that of a machine gun.
Before the Japanese soldiers who were carrying the heavy machine guns could react, they fell down one by one.
Akiyama Nanki hid in the bunker before the gunshots rang out, and at this time he hated the cavalry company to the point of being straight to the root of his teeth. ("The root of the tooth is straight", the Northeast dialect, is particularly descriptive.) )
A battle that originally had no suspense was commanded by him like this, and there were only two fates waiting for him: one was to die directly on the battlefield, and the other was to apologize for his guilt later.
In short, even if he survives, Hideo Onizuka will definitely not be able to spare him.
In desperation, Nanki Akiyama decided to fight hard.
If he dies in battle, his family will at least receive a pension.
As the cavalry company rushed into position, Minamiki Akiyama jumped out of cover and shouted:
"I, Lieutenant of the Imperial Army, Minamiki Akiyama, am going to duel with your commander!"
Before he could finish speaking, a saber slashed down on his head, mixed with a hoarse voice:
"Decide your grandma's 13!"
It was too late to hide, and Nanki Akiyama hurriedly raised his knife to greet him.
"Boom"
The command knife in Akiyama's Nanki hand fell to the ground, and the tiger's mouth in both hands was shattered, and a trace of blood flowed out.
The warrior who cut him was physically strong, and his own strength was far greater than that of Akiyama Nanki, coupled with the momentum generated by the running of the war horse, the moment Akiyama Nanki hurriedly raised his sword to meet him, it was doomed to such an ending.
However, Akiyama Nanki's force value is also good, and when the command knife in his hand is shaken away, he can still dodge in time, but he was swept by the tip of the warrior's knife and cut off his collarbone.
Nanki Akiyama let out a cry of pain from his mouth, but he still held on to pick up the knife on the ground, wanting to make a final struggle.
It's a pity, not to mention Hao Dabao, even the warrior who cut him didn't pause for a moment, and rushed over directly.
At the moment when Nanki Akiyama's right hand just touched the handle of the knife, a sudden chill suddenly felt on his neck, and immediately after, the knife on the ground quickly enlarged in front of his eyes.
Then, his head hit the ground, but strangely, Akiyama Nanki didn't feel a trace of pain, and he found that he was able to see the scene behind him without turning around:
A horse, a face, a knife, a string of blood.
Before he could see the hideousness on his face, darkness completely enveloped him.
At the moment before losing consciousness, Nanki Akiyama realized that his head had been cut off......
