Chapter 446: The Deadliest Bombing
Compared with the lethality caused by ordinary machine guns, the power of machine gun shells is undoubtedly stronger. The Japanese army, which had fought many times with the anti-Japanese war forces, knew very well that this kind of machine gun was originally used to deal with tanks and armored vehicles, but now it is used to fight infantry, how cruel!
Even if the Japanese army adopts multi-echelon and multi-batch crowd tactics, in the face of the crazy baptism of machine guns, no matter how brave the little devil is, he has to kneel. Especially when I saw those little devils who were completely blown up by direct hits, the scene was simply miserable.
As shocking as the attack on the little devils, there are still the little devil officers who are in charge of commanding in the rear. The anti-aircraft machine guns outside the city, now the machine guns suddenly appeared. None of these weapons were originally intended to be used against infantry.
The problem is that the mysterious forces that are trying to encircle them are now using these powerful weapons as heavy weapons to stop them. Not to mention the huge power of weapons, the lethality caused by them will also seriously demoralize soldiers.
Through these heavy weapons, it is once again proved that the so-called courage of the Japanese army is still not worth mentioning in the face of the metal storm!
The two infantry guns, which were finally pulled out, were quickly erected amid the roar of the commander of the infantry brigade. The artillery that originally came with the brigade has basically become infantry at this moment. Now these two infantry guns are also their only artillery.
Hu Biao, who was staying in the blocking position to command the battle, was also very satisfied when he saw that under the baptism of machine guns, the little devil's offensive was decisively contained. In fact, the machine guns stored in the storage space are not equipped with much ammunition.
If it weren't for the fact that the anti-aircraft machine guns had not been recovered, Hu Biao would not have used this. Although there are still heavy artillery and mountain artillery in the space, Hu Biao feels that the machine gun is lighter. The rest of the mountain artillery and field artillery are not convenient for use in this situation.
When Hu Biao saw the rear of the little devil's position, two cannons suddenly rang out, and he said with a tense expression: "Damn, the little devil has a cannon!" ”
"Detachment leader, it sounds like a little devil's Type 92 infantry gun! This range is also within the range of our mortars! ”
The combat platoon commander who stayed by his side, from the place where the fire came, quickly judged the model of the artillery. When Hu Biao turned around, he saw two artillery shells, which fell near the machine gun position, and exploded to produce two brilliant flames.
"Whistle! Let the gunner avoid the gunfire! Inform the mortar squad and give me the infantry cannon to kill the little devils! ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
After receiving Hu Biao's combat instructions, Tian Tiezhu, who was staying by his side, took out an iron whistle and blew it. The machine gunners, who were still about to continue firing, were indeed startled by the sudden shelling, but fortunately the two shells did not hit directly.
But the machine gunners knew that when the little devil's test firing was over, the next round of shells would accurately hit their positions. Now hearing Tian Tiezhu's whistle, the squad leader in charge of the command immediately said, "Disperse!" Take cover! ”
Knowing that the whistle was an order, even if it was too late to transfer the machine guns, all the machine gunners quickly dispersed to find a suitable position for concealment. Shortly after they dispersed, two shells landed on the machine-gun emplacement.
Looking at the machine guns that were blown up, the gunners who were lying not far away were also very angry: "Damn! The little devil's cannonball, the shot is really accurate! It's a pity! Such a good machine gun, I'm afraid it's going to be scrapped! ”
"That's it! I forgot what the detachment commander told us before, as long as people live, weapons will be available sooner or later. If we hadn't retreated in time, this shell would have come down, and we would all have to plant ourselves on the position. If that's the case, the detachment leader will be angry! ”
It is clear that many officers and soldiers of the Anti-Japanese War in this era felt that weapons were more important than life. But in Hu Biao's combat philosophy, the life of a soldier is always more important than the weapon. If you can't transfer your weapon, give it up and keep yourself safe.
As long as these well-trained officers and soldiers are alive, weapons and such things as weapons can be captured by Hu Biao sooner or later!
With the use of the two surviving infantry guns, the Japanese army successfully destroyed Hu Biao's temporary machine gun position. The little devil attack force, which was originally frightened, made a comeback again and launched a new round of attack on Hu Biao's position.
In the face of the little devil's crazy offensive, Hu Biao also said directly: "Fight!" Give Lao Tzu a hard beating! Lao Tzu really wants to see how many people the little devil is willing to fill in. Get ready, Demoman! Wait for my command at any time! ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
When Hu Biao gave the order to resolutely block the order to prepare the explosive powder trap, the mortar squad located in the rear also locked the position of the two Japanese infantry guns. With the commander's order, several shells rose into the air.
There was no need for precise lock-on, and after a few mortar shells fell, another batch of guns popped into the air. When the Japanese commander who was watching the battle in the rear saw this scene, he couldn't help but close his eyes, and his heart sank again.
"Yaga! How many hellish guns are there these damn guys! ”
The artillery outside the city before, plus the artillery that was blocked before, plus the artillery that appeared at this moment, even if it was mortar. But in the face of the infantry brigade with only two infantry guns left, these little devils still lack countermeasures.
The commander of the infantry brigade, who was also worried, knew that these two infantry guns would not be saved, so he shouted directly: "All troops, charge me!" At all costs, break out of the encirclement. If we can't get out, we'll all die here! ”
The commander of the desperate infantry brigade knew very well that the pursuers behind him were constantly compressing their living space. The troops who had left behind the palace to block the attack were afraid that they would not be able to hold out for long. Once surrounded, they are truly dead.
At present, although they are stubbornly resisted, judging from the firepower of the blocking troops, they have at least a glimmer of life. One infantry brigade is not enough, then add another one. If two is not enough, then press all the troops up.
At such a time, there is no room for him to hesitate. One more second of delay, one more point of danger of the brigade being wiped out. Out of this fear, the commander of the infantry brigade finally chose to give it a go. He couldn't rush out, and he resigned himself to his fate!
In the face of the roar of the brigade commander, the other surviving Japanese soldiers also knew that the situation was dangerous at this moment. Under the pressure of the deadly crisis, all the little devils did not need to mobilize at all, and rushed forward again with a roar and joined the attacking camp.
Looking at the little devils who were pouring in like a tide, Hu Biao couldn't help but say, "Damn! It seems that we are really pushing the little devils in a hurry! Demoman, start ignition! Brothers, hold on a little longer, the little devil is almost finished! ”
"Yes, detachment leader!"
With a total of more than 100 troops, the pressure of blocking thousands of outlaws can be imagined. Many machine gunners, looking at the smoking barrel, are also worried that the barrel will explode. But right now, there is no room for them to worry.
The pre-pressed magazines were constantly loaded onto the gun, and then quickly shot out. The grenadiers who stayed in the rear also increased the speed of their hands, and they didn't have time to aim at all, so they hit one gun grenade after another into the team of little devils.
Just when the little devil was constantly approaching the blocking position of Hu Biao and his party, it was not far from successfully breaking through. The Demoman, who lit the fuse, also began to join the blocking camp. One more person, one more power!
Qin Tianyou and the others, who were in charge of encircling and outflanking, listened to the fierce gunfire coming from the north of the city, and also knew that the battle had entered a white-hot stage. Qin Tianyou and others, who were worried about Hu Biao's safety, also accelerated the intensity of the attack.
The guard regiment and two prisoner of war companies that cooperated with the operation also began to attack the little devils who were responsible for blocking them. As the little devils who blocked the attack ran out of bullets and began to choose hand-to-hand combat, the rear of the Japanese army continued to lose.
"Don't fight bayonets with little devils! Say hello directly with bullets! Don't forget the commander's explanation, don't take prisoners! ”
The officers in charge of the command saw that some soldiers still wanted to fight with the little devil with bayonets, and directly gave the order to kill. When the battle is fought to this point, if you delay for one more minute, it is possible for the little devil to successfully break through.
Finally, there was a chance to encircle and annihilate the little devils, how could these participating troops give up a piece of fat to their mouths. Whether it was the guard regiment or the prisoner of war company, they also had no good impression of the little devils, and they didn't think about catching any prisoners.
Just when the little devil desperately blocked the attack, trying to buy more time for the main force to break through. In the ruins north of the city, a huge explosion was heard again. The flames that rose one after another once attracted the attention of the whole city.
Looking at the direction from which the explosion came, the little devil who was blocking it said in a moment's sluggishness: "Baga! How so! ”
From the location where the explosion sounded from, these little devils who blocked the attack all guessed that there must be many troops preparing to break through in the explosion area. Now that the explosion has sounded, the fate of those who remain in the blast zone can be imagined.
On the other hand, the officers and soldiers of the guard regiment and the prisoner of war company in charge of the attack said excitedly: "Brothers, rush! ”
Knowing that the little devil who fled to the north of the city fell into Hu Biao's trap again, the morale of the officers and soldiers who cooperated with the battle was naturally greatly boosted. The sound of the explosion that sounded again instantly destroyed the morale of all the surviving Japanese soldiers.
Many of the little devils who were in charge of blocking had already resigned themselves to no longer resisting, either rushing out of the hiding place to seek death, or starting to run away with guns. In the eyes of these little devils, it is almost impossible to break through from the north side of the city.
Now take advantage of the chaos to find a place to hide, and wait until dawn to maybe pick up a life. It would be pointless to stay where you are. For a time, the blocking positions deployed by the Japanese troops in the rear were torn to shreds in an instant.
At this moment, in the attack area where the Japanese army gathered in the north of the city, countless little devils were sent to the sky by the explosion. The little devils who survived began to scream and howl, and were burned alive in the blast area by the flames from the explosion.
Some of the little devils who rushed out of the explosion area became the targets of encirclement and annihilation by Hu Biao and others on the blocking position. The explosion area formed by the explosion, dividing the remaining little devils into two forces. As for the middle, the vast majority did not survive.
Many high-ranking officers of the little devils located outside the explosion area, looking at the attacking troops shrouded in the explosion area, there was only one thought in everyone's minds, that is, they were really completely finished, and it was impossible to break out!
