Chapter 90: The End
The battle between the Heavy is not as legendary and exciting as the Sniper.
On the battlefield, if the machine gunners on both sides are more aggressive, they are actually just trying to kill more soldiers on the other side, and it is very likely that after a battle, neither machine gunner has fired a single shot at the other.
Ishikawa knew very well in his heart that what their side had to do and could only do at this moment was to defend unwaveringly. Although he may not be able to see what it is from his height, he understands that there must be some reason why the Eighth Route Army made them attack so eagerly. As long as you can hold on to this place for a while leading your soldiers, what awaits them will be victory.
As the holding side, the firepower point composed of the two heavy machine guns in their carriage at this moment can be said to be the core of the defensive formation. As long as their firepower here is guaranteed to be correct and help arrives, they will be considered victorious.
He no longer has the luxury of the remaining hundred or so people in his hands to defeat the elite troops of the Eighth Route Army in front of him, without all kinds of artillery and other heavy weapons, they will not have any advantage in front of the 424th Regiment.
What Ishikawa has to do at this moment is to use the skills he has mastered to resist the edge of the Eighth Route Army's attack.
"Da Da Da ......"
Ishikawa's angle of choosing the target is very tricky, and even a fool can see that the Eighth Route Army has a clear division of labor when charging for such a long time. So Ishikawa's main target was on the soldiers with cluster grenades.
Obviously, the task of the soldiers was to destroy the fortifications and the soldiers with grenades after approaching the train. It can be said that the threat to the train is quite large.
And in the same way, as a machine gunner who was ordered to be in danger, Li Shun's growth in this battle should not be underestimated. He keenly discovered that among the five carriages in front of him except for the front of the locomotive, only the one with heavy machine guns was the key, and all the core forces of the devils were concentrated there. The devils in the other carriages were nothing more than beating side drums.
So Li Shun specially selected the devil in the middle of the train to fight, the terrain of the machine gun position where he was located was quite good, and the horizontal height was higher than the devil's carriage, and he naturally had an advantage in the shooting angle.
He quickly found his target, which was a few devils shooting in the middle of the carriage, and judging from the beating of their guns, these devils were very decisive when shooting.
"Da Da Da ......"
After finding the target, Li Shun did not hesitate to start shooting, and the bullet stream swept towards the devils. The three eight big gai of the devils in the distance suddenly fell silent, and two of the four devils were killed immediately, and the muzzles of the remaining two were not as constantly spraying bullets as just now.
……
The frontal charge was progressing in an orderly manner, although the car in the middle of the train was clearly a tough bone to gnaw. But fighting a war certainly can't be a blind head iron, just a hard hit against the wall.
Don't forget that the formation of the fifth company is a two-way attack, except for the front of the carriage where Ishikawa is located. At both ends of this train, it was as if it had been grabbed by a pair of big hands. Fighters are now starting to board at both ends of the train!
"Squadron Leader! The carriage where Mr. Maeda was located was occupied by the Eighth Route Army! ”
The Japanese soldier who withdrew from the front carriage said with a look of embarrassment that his cheek had been bruised by a bullet in the battle in the carriage just now. But now he obviously didn't care about bandaging the wound.
"What?!"
Hearing the report of his subordinates, Ishikawa was shocked at the time, and the loss of Maeda's carriage made him no longer care about the heavy machine gun in his hand, and his neck was thrown back at that time, and he let out an exclamation.
However, just as Ishikawa let out this exclamation, a bullet came from three hundred meters away and drove into Ishikawa's forehead.
Ishikawa's last expression was stunned with a hint of doubt, perhaps wondering why Maeda's sleeper car was lost, or perhaps wondering why he died so suddenly.
Kiko, who had already begun to move to find the next suitable sniper position, seemed extremely calm in her heart at the moment, and did not have the slightest joy of killing the supreme commander of the Japanese army in this battle. For him, Ishikawa was just a slightly more weighty target.
"Squadron Leader ......"
On top of the carriage, the surrounding Japanese soldiers looked at Ishikawa, who had fallen in the middle of them, and the expressions on everyone's faces became indescribable.
"Yaga !!"
Ishikawa's adjutant shouted angrily when he saw this, picked up the heavy machine gun in front of Ishikawa's body, and fired in the direction he remembered the bullet coming from. However, at this moment, the building was already empty, and Geng Shuangxi naturally would not stay there and wait for the devil's bullet to greet him.
After Ishikawa was killed, the balance of victory on the battlefield began to tilt in favor of the 424th Regiment.
"Commander, that stubborn firepower point was pulled out by Kiko."
……
"The second carriage has also been taken down."
……
"That Japanese expert has also been controlled by us."
……
All kinds of good news poured in, Yue Siliang only now saw the dawn of victory in this battle, looked at his watch, he still had forty minutes left, very much.
"Boom !!"
After Ishikawa was killed, the Japanese fire suddenly froze for nearly twenty seconds. Twenty seconds may not sound like a long time, but it is enough experience on the battlefield for the warrior to charge nearly a hundred meters! Under the internal and external difficulties of the Japanese army, the core carriage of the Japanese army was finally put in the face by the soldiers of the fifth company.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Clusters of cluster grenades crackled and threw into the devil's carriage and fortifications, even if they were not thrown into the devil's Wang Yu fortifications, they exploded outside, and the huge shock wave and shrenchnel splash were enough for the little devil to bear. Although the wooden-handled grenade does not look as beautiful and fragmented as the devil's melon grenade, the charge inside is solid, and the power of the explosion is definitely not to be underestimated.
"Rush, !!"
A series of cluster grenade throws made the devils in the middle carriage completely dumbfounded. Seeing this, the soldiers immediately rushed forward without hesitation, and at the forefront was a platoon commander of the Fifth Company, who rushed onto the carriage with a brisk step, and then he and the soldiers behind him also jumped on the train one after another.
In the middle of the carriage, there were several living devils trying to resist. However, the soldier who walked in the front and charged with a box cannon was a string of bullets and finished off these devils.
……
"Commander, the battle in the train is over."
The turning point of a battle was to the end, but only ten minutes had passed. They are still half an hour away from the two-hour red line from the battlefield!
The end of the battle so quickly was something that Yue Siliang himself did not expect. In fact, this battle is full of accidents.
First of all, the biggest accident is not Ishikawa, a skilled machine gunner, nor Li Shun's epiphany on the battlefield. Rather, it was the Sixth Company that did not appear on the battlefield here.
The Sixth Company has never appeared on the battlefield here, they have been assigned to sabotage the railway a few kilometers ahead, and what prevents the devil dog from jumping over the wall and starting the train regardless of it. However, when the sixth company was dismantling and bombing the railroad tracks, he happened to encounter the ironclad car led by the devil.
The firepower of the devil's ironclad car is not weak, and as soon as it touches it, it causes a lot of losses to the Sixth Company. And the most important thing is that the sixth company was exposed to the open ground to destroy the railway, and there was no bunker capable of protecting the body. It can be said that as soon as they met, the Sixth Company was not lightly injured by the machine gun on the ironclad car.
If it weren't for the ironclad car that drove a bomb that had been set up earlier, the outcome would not have been known. But that's all in the past. This is war, even if it is a coincidence that a battle is won, no matter how unreasonable. The outcome will be a foregone conclusion, and there will be no ifs in war.
