716. Assist the 306th Regiment
Now the devils in the Chai Lou position are like the last bundle of straw on the camel's body, not one, but a large bundle pressed up, and they can no longer support it, except for a few dozen devils who fled backwards.
The rest of the devils all died under the knife edge of the 305th regiment's thousands of bayonets and broadswords.
"Relying on the firewood building, continue to attack and advance in depth to the positions of the Japanese army, such as Cai Lou, Eighteenth Floor, and He Zhai."
After receiving the immediate report of the 305th Regiment, the 51st Division immediately issued a new order, although such an order was already in place at the pre-war preparation meeting, but it was emphasized at this juncture.
Moreover, Cai Lou, the Eighteenth Floor and other places are not auspicious and quiet now, and they are also suffering from the onslaught of several other regiments of the 51st Division, and the 306th Regiment is now close to taking Cai Lou with its last breath.
Due to the relatively narrow terrain, the 306th Regiment could not put the entire regiment in, and could only put a battalion of troops to attack at most.
Now they have all changed battalions, but they still haven't been defeated, and the commander of the 306th Regiment is so anxious that he can't wait to go into battle to kill himself.
Commander Zhang of the 305th Regiment came over to take a look, and saw that Sangou happened to be passing by, so he called Sangou: "Xiao Luozi, wait a minute, come and see, how should this be fought?" ”
If Cai Lou's stronghold is not taken, the entire 305 regiment will not be able to surpass the attack, for fear that the Japanese army will have a big counterattack, and when the time comes, Cai Lou's Japanese army will die a miserable death.
For the sake of conservatism, it is better to assist the 306th Regiment to quickly take this stronghold, but if it can't be taken, let it go first, and then make a dangerous overtaking attack to fight the eighteenth floor and He Zhai.
Sangou heard the call of Captain Zhang, came over and looked at the binoculars for a while, and expressed his opinion:
"Concentrate mortars, artillery fire to block the Japanese bunker and the surrounding firepower points, and at the same time send out demomen, continuous blasting, blasting a few openings, and then under the cover of machine guns suppression, the group cooperated to rush in."
Regiment Commander Zhang nodded, in the face of the stubborn resistance of the Japanese army, the conventional tactics are also like this, there is no other better weapon for the time being, the so-called tactics, simple and popular, is to watch the food and eat.
What weapons and personnel are in hand, match them according to these, develop their strengths and avoid weaknesses, target the opponent's weaknesses, attack one point, and expand into a face.
As a regular army's positional warfare, there are not many flexible tactics of the guerrillas, and in many cases it is a hard smash, a weapon, a life, and a hole.
The commander of the 306th regiment is no longer Qiu Weida, the old regiment commander of Sangou, because after the head of the regiment Qiu was hit by a machine gun bullet in the thigh bone in Nanjing, they were desperately escorted to the small steamer on the Yangtze River in Sangou.
After escaping from Nanjing, Regiment Commander Qiu was sent to the rear to recuperate from his wounds, and after his injuries were healed, he did not return to his original unit for the time being, but went to the Army University for further study.
Now the head of the 306th regiment is surnamed Cheng, and the head of the regiment Cheng is actually not an idle person, and those who can be the head of the main regiment in the elite of the Central Army are not ordinary figures.
The tactics that Sangou and a small company commander can think of, people have long thought of it, but they are suffering from the limitations of mortars, first, there are not many shells, and secondly, some excellent gunners sacrificed most of them when they were shooting at the devil just now.
The machine gun company of the 306th Regiment suffered heavy losses, and now it is difficult to have enough shells to accurately suppress the Japanese bunkers.
After knowing the difficulties of the 306th Regiment, Commander Zhang of the 305th Regiment immediately sent his own machine gun company, and at the same time hit the mortars of the whole regiment, and four of the seventh company were also requisitioned.
In view of the fact that the Japanese army in Cailou now only has a small number of mortars and heavy machine guns left, let the four bamboo poles that can shoot accurate mortars first, and first knock out the two heavy machine guns of the devil.
At the same time, he also used himself as a bait to lure out the devil's mortar, and then concentrated all the mortars, first killed the devil's cannon, and finally, unanimously dealt with the devil's dark bunker.
As soon as the simple combat mission is reached, they will start working immediately, and they have already used the guerrilla tactics of mortars in large quantities anyway, and there is no problem in being a bait.
The 306th Regiment again organized the fighters of the second battalion first, divided into small groups, in a straggler formation, close to the core positions of the Japanese army, and attracted Japanese machine guns, mainly heavy machine gun fire points.
Cai Lou's devils were not simple, they built the heavy machine gun positions in bunkers, no wonder the mortars of the 306th Regiment fought for a long time, and they did not completely destroy the heavy machine gun fire points of the Japanese army.
This made it a little difficult for them to make a mistake with the bamboo poles, but no matter how difficult it was, they still had to fight, and the four mortars were divided into two groups to hit the two heavy machine gun bunkers of the Japanese army.
After a round of rapid fire of the mortar shells, they immediately withdrew, because the bamboo poles they hit accurately, although they did not completely destroy the Japanese heavy machine gun bunker position, it can be regarded as a broken machine gun of the devil, and the two machine guns stopped temporarily.
One of them should have been hit by the barrel outside the gun's hole, it was damaged, and now the barrel is being replaced, but the barrel of this 92 heavy machine, not the barrel of a light machine gun, is not so easy to replace.
The devil ammunition soldier put on asbestos gloves and changed to a spare barrel in a hurry.
Another heavy machine, the machine gunner should have been shot by the fragments of the mortar shell, and now it was replaced by a shooter, and it quickly clucked again.
However, the devil's mortar is in a hurry now, and his heavy machine gun position was attacked by the mortars of the Chinese soldiers, and it was an accurate attack, and if it continues, his heavy machine gun will eventually be defeated by the Chinese soldiers.
As a result, the few remaining mortars of the Japanese army also immediately fired back, and at the place where they had just fired the bamboo poles, a burst of shells fell, causing bursts of gunpowder smoke and dust.
The devil's mortar showed its face, and the mortars of the 305th Regiment Machine Gun Company and the whole regiment were not polite, relying on the large number of artillery, a large number of mortar shells were fired in a swarm.
There were already only a few devils left, and now they were hit by this burst, and almost all the mortars were blown over.
They couldn't be sure if all the devil's mortars had been knocked out, or if there were any other hidden mortar positions, so they opened fire on the Japanese heavy machine gun positions.
After several rounds of mortar attacks, the two 92 heavy machines outside the devil's bunker were finally knocked out, and the devil's mortar never showed its face again.
Let's just wipe out all the mortars of the devils.
Now there is only one heavy machine gun and two light machine guns left in the devil's bunker, although this mortar can't kill the bunker, but there is a way.
Smoke grenades. This time, the mortars of the 305th Regiment were replaced with smoke bombs, and this blow turned the devil's bunker into a cloud of smoke, and it was estimated that it would be difficult for the devils inside to see the situation outside.
The devils had no choice, and the light and heavy machine guns did not dare to stop, so they could only make some blind fire. People didn't dare to come out without permission, because it was uncertain whether the mortars would come and send real grenades down.
