620. Tunnel Assault
There were no mines, but grenades could also be detected, and Lao Duan saw that the trick bomb that he had worked so hard to hide was opened, and he was angry, so he called a machine gun to strafe the mine detection troops that Lao Tan said.
The devil's heavy machine gun immediately returned fire, so that the light machine gun of the old Duan Eighth Company did not dare to shoot at each other, and the devil's mine detection unit gradually removed the trick bullets made by the old section under the cover of fire.
The devil sappers are good infantry, so they can safely dig their positions.
The machine gun company of the third battalion was crippled before, all the super-heavy machine guns of Hatch Chase were all gone, and there were only two or three mortars left to fight, and the number of shells was amazing.
Even so, now it has become a fragrant bun, the regiment headquarters took the machine gun companies of each battalion up, rebuilt a regimental machine gun company, the supply line of the 184th Division in Yuwang Mountain, was interrupted by the devils, and the supply came and went, so it could only be saved.
"If there were mortars, a few shots could blow up the devil's heavy machine gun, then I think I am so aggrieved now." Lao Duan sighed.
"Even if there is, it won't be able to kill the devil's infantry artillery." Lao Tan picked up the conversation.
"Before you can kill the infantry artillery, at least it's good to take out the devil's heavy machine gun first."
"That is, as long as the mortar is used flexibly, the infantry gun may not be able to catch the mortar."
"But it makes no sense to keep our mortars and not let them be used." Lao Duan was a little indignant.
"Maybe you have to save it for a critical time, the supply of ammunition is very tight now." Old Tan excused himself.
"What do you mean by a critical time? It's not a critical time for us to be tight here, it's a critical time for us to be tight above. Watching his brothers continue to lose, Lao Duan lost the overall situation he should have.
"You have to look at this problem from the overall situation, and if you join the regiment commander and division commander, you will do the same."
"Yes, I'll do the same, but are we going to be sacrificed like this?"
"On the battlefield, someone has to die, and it's just a step ahead, looking at fighting such a powerful Japanese army now, it will be difficult for you and me to grow old."
Lao Duan was told by Lao Tan that he couldn't refute it, maybe he didn't want to refute it, what if he said he won? I can't change my fate.
Lao Duan and Lao Tan were silent for a while, speechless.
It seems that desperately going for promotion is not an unsightly thing, at least in terms of life-saving, the official level will increase a lot of life-saving chips and opportunities. Lao Tan thought about it in his heart.
……
After the devil cleared the position, he began to dig again, this time neither digging a hole nor a trench, but finding a lot of planks and timber, digging a serpentine trench, and covering it.
The devil's adaptability is really good.,Last time I was made out of temper by the defenders' grenadiers.,Now I immediately thought of a corresponding solution.。
"What should I do?" , Seeing the approaching operation of the devil constantly approaching, Lao Tan set his eyes on Lao Duan, Lao Duan did not give up, and still called the grenadier soldiers to attack the devil.
After a few grenadier grenades exploded, Lao Duan eagerly took the telescope to observe carefully, but it was really useless.
First of all, the digging troops in front of the devils are very bad, they do not dig in the open air, but dig through the ground skin more than a foot thick, and at the same time reinforce and cover it with wood planks.
The people outside really don't know where the devil is digging? Where did you dig it?
I don't know where the target is, so naturally the grenadier can't hit people, even if the shell hits the trench covered with wooden planks that the devil has completed, the effect is very average.
The explosion direction of the artillery shell is fan-up, and it is not a ground-penetrating bomb, and it cannot explode downward, even if it has a certain destructive force and vibration when exploding, it has little impact on the trench.
Even if the cover of the trench is blown open by the grenadier canister, there may not be people in this section, so under the current shortage of bomb supplies, it is still not worth the cost of grenadier grenades.
In less than two moments, Lao Duan withdrew the grenadier soldiers, and it was better to send infantry up to fight them directly.
Lao Duan also secretly sent a group of people, holding sapper shovels, and also learned from the devils, digging holes in the direction of the devils' trenches.
The positions on both sides were already very close, and it was estimated that there were only a few tens of meters left after the previous 300 meters to more than 100 meters after the approaching operation.
Lao Duan set up an excavation team, and also organized a commando team, the number of commandos was not large, only seven or eight people, but each person had at least seven or eight grenades hanging on their bodies, almost a shell gun in each person's hand, as well as Yunnan long knives, daggers, etc.
It was almost noon, the excavation team finally dug to the wall of the devil's trench, the further forward, the more carefully dug it, not in a hurry to dig through, this time the control was very good, you can hear the voice of the devil on the other side of the trench.
Since the devil is only working closely, not a real trench operation, there is no need to reinforce the trench wall with wooden planks, so the final preparation on the side of the Eighth Company is ready, and it only takes a few shovels to dig through the last layer of the trench wall.
At this time, the excavation team had already retreated to use their weapons as reserves, and after the assault team dug the trench wall with a few shovels, they threw several grenades on both sides in an instant.
As soon as the grenade rang off, seven or eight people rushed out of the hole, divided into four groups, two by two, and first eight people divided into two teams and rushed from the left and right directions of the devil's trench.
While rushing, while throwing a grenade, when encountering a corner, first throw a grenade over, for a while, the devil approached the trench of the operation, and a grenade sounded.
Almost in the confined space, the light was dim, and the smoke after the grenade exploded, many devils did not know what was going on in the trench, and they did not dare to shoot indiscriminately, for fear of hurting their own people.
The assault team of the Eighth Company advanced along the trench wall under the cover of gunsmoke, and as a group of people in the vanguard, as long as they saw something talking to a devil or a devil moving, the shell gun would shoot at a point.
After the other team cleared the devils in the trench on the other side, they immediately turned their heads to cover the back of the striker, and for some devils who were not completely dead, they raised their knives and made up for them.
It wasn't until a grenade from the striker of the commando team overturned the cover of the devil's trench that he found that many devils were having lunch and the rice balls fell to the ground.
A large number of devils gathered here, obviously wanting to rush to the front after lunch, and immediately attack the defenders' positions from the front.
I didn't expect Lao Duan to take the lead, just the small commando team of these few people, in such a narrow tunnel, is very flexible, and they are all short-fought weapons.
The grenade opened the way, and as soon as it exploded, it was a big fireball, shrapnel shot everywhere, and if you were not killed, you would be injured, and the smoke after the grenade exploded just covered the commandos.
Then there is the shell gun, which is similar to a short assault rifle, which can shoot several bullets with one hand and one hand, and in the short range, the bullet of the shell gun is also very powerful, at least much more powerful than ordinary pistols.
