669. Change tactics and fight steadily

Without the suppression of artillery fire, without the blockade of machine guns, with a few rifle bullets and grenades, the 6th Company and the other units that held off the enemy together could not organize a network of fire.

The soldiers of the Sixth Company also loaded their bayonets and used people to fill the torn hole, but this effect was like throwing a few sandbags down after the embankment was breached by the flood, and it had no effect.

The devil didn't entangle with the Sixth Company, he broke through the siege directly, and he didn't care about the covering troops behind, he was entangled and bitten by the besieging troops of the three dogs, and constantly died under the knife.

People are like this, they are born randomly, they die randomly, they don't have the same fate, some devils escape from the encirclement, and some devils can only watch behind their backs as the hope of life is cut off and killed by Chinese soldiers.

Zhang Lingwu ordered the trumpeters to continue to blow the trumpet of the charge, wanting to repeat yesterday's scene and take advantage of the victory to pursue, yesterday a regiment could chase a brigade of devils, and today two regiments can also chase a wing of devils.

But today he thought wrongly, the reason why devils are devils is because of their incomparable cunning and murderous enemies, so they are called devils, they suffered a loss yesterday, and they will not suffer the same loss a second time today.

Half of the brigade that escaped from the encirclement, and after merging with one brigade on the periphery, immediately defended on the spot, covering and retreating in batches.

Moreover, the commander of the 65th Wing of the Devil, Liang Jiaoye Dazuo, also called in the plane and began to strafe the pursuing troops of the Chinese army at a low altitude.

Seeing this, Li Tianxia, commander of the 153rd Brigade of the 51st Division, had to immediately stop the pursuit of the troops, turn to the position to cover, and retreat to the same place.

As a last resort, Zhang Lingwu also understood the brigade commander's order, and the 95th Regiment of the 285th Division also stopped the pursuit.

Everyone understands very well that once the follow-up troops are blocked by enemy aircraft, the devils who retreated in front are very likely to turn around and take a bite.

As soon as this horse pistol comes, it will have to make the limited pursuit force eat a pot, and even suffer a big loss, so it is better to preserve your own strength first, and at the same time keep the fruits of victory in this battle.

In this battle, although it was not possible to completely annihilate the devils of a brigade surrounded by them, it also achieved very brilliant results, and by using the strength of two regiments, it actually defeated a wing of devils, which is a rare situation since the beginning of the war.

Moreover, these two regiments are not subordinate to the same unit, and the fact that the units of different formations cooperate so well has also given the Chinese army great confidence.

Two infantry regiments of different formations can withstand the attack of a wing of the devils, and even surround one of the brigades, if it were not for the weak strength and scarcity of firepower, it is very likely to eat the brigade in this encirclement.

……

The devil was hit hard by this, and Sangou thought that he should stop for two days, and tonight, when he counted the battle losses and trophies of the Seventh Company, he was in a relatively relaxed mood.

After all, the battle damage was very low, but only about 20 of them suffered bayonet wounds of varying degrees, and a few serious ones were sent back to the military field hospital in Dangshan.

The losses were more than a dozen brothers, who were killed and injured by the devil's grenades, and the loyal bones were buried everywhere in Qingshan, so everyone buried the brothers who died in the battle in the position on the spot.

Sangou called Xiucai to count the names of these people and reported them, so that their families could receive pensions, which could be regarded as the last bit of material comfort.

……

After two days, the devil continued to attack, this time it is estimated that another wing has been changed, and the 65th wing may have to be pulled to the rear to rest and recuperate last time.

Last time, the 65th Wing wanted to bloom in the center, but it was besieged and almost all of them were wrapped in dumplings, so the devils who came today have learned a lesson, and if they want to hurry, they can't reach it, and now they are fighting steadily and steadily, while shelling, while digging positions.

But don't underestimate the large-scale steady and steady attack, the Japanese army units are closely united, each doing its duty, and the front is attacking while digging the trenches; The effect and pressure is also amazing.

In fact, in the area of this Guandi Temple, there are either trenches dug in the field, or craters blown out by bombs, which only need to be used, and then dig communication trenches to link them together to become fortifications.

The Japanese cover units were divided into several groups, one group of troops covering the front attack and fortifications, generally using long-range attack weapons combined with mortars, heavy machine guns, and other guns to suppress the defenders' firepower

There is also a group of covering troops that can be regarded as mobile reserves, which can be used to fill gaps and strengthen the front at any time, and the last group is long-range artillery, which can fire at any time under the fixed point of observation balloons to hit the heavy fire points of the defenders.

It is mainly the mountain artillery and battle defense artillery of the defenders, but the mountain artillery and battle defense artillery of the 51st Division have long been hidden, and now although the shells are supplied, they still dare not be exposed to the range of the devil's long-range artillery.

Therefore, relying on the superiority of firepower, the Japanese army gradually encroached on the forward positions of the Chinese army, and with the continuous advance of the imminent operation, the forward positions of the defenders were under increasing pressure.

This time it was the three battalions that took turns to defend the forward position of the 305th Regiment, and the Seventh Company bore the brunt of it, and in the face of the repetition of the devil's old tricks, the three dogs had to use some unconventional means to defend.

First of all, the heavy machine gun does not dare to pull it out, as soon as it comes out, it will be blown up by the mortar of the devil, even if it hides in a machine gun nest with cover, it will still be named by the rifle artillery.

Now you can only use some light machine guns, and you can leave after a few shots, but the devils are hiding far away, and those who come close are hiding in the trenches digging and advancing, so the machine guns are not effective.

Under the leadership of Xiucai, several outstanding shooters in the first row continued to fire cold guns, and even the devils from a distance of 400 meters could be hit, and the devils were terrified, and they began to hide at a distance of 500 meters, and they did not dare to expose their positions casually.

For a large army of hundreds or thousands, a few cold guns cannot play a decisive role in the battle situation, unless they hit the enemy's commander, but this is almost impossible to hit in a command post a few miles away.

As for the tactics of counter-imminent operations, Sangou had fought before, but it was only against the Japanese troops at the squadron level, and the two sides fought for a few days of slow progress.

No way, even if you are facing the enemy at the wing level now, you have to take it out and try it, Sangou ordered a platoon under the leadership of Xiucai, a commander who specializes in shooting devils, if there is any.

This one is difficult to identify, now the devil has learned to be obedient, and only when he reaches the rank of captain and above will he wear an officer's uniform and long riding boots, and wear a command knife.

The squadron leader and below, like the company commander of the Chinese army, are no different from soldiers in their full body clothes, even the weapons and equipment are the same, the only difference is that there is a military rank on the collar badge.

This, for a shooter a few hundred meters away, is simply too difficult, there is no way to see at all, only to see a piece of green steel helmet wrapped in a net bag shaking, the head and shoulders can be slightly distinguished, it is about four or five hundred meters away.
