Chapter 407: Fierce Battle
A gunshot rang out on the right side of the road, firing the first shot of the entire battle.
When the Japanese troops advanced to a hundred and fifty meters in front of the 2nd Squadron, they were met with fire from the 2nd Squadron.
Seventy-nine rifles, grenade barrels, and grenadiers formed a network of fire, hitting the attacking Japanese troops.
The 2nd Squadron had two trenches, the first of which was equipped with infantry light weapons, rifles, light machine guns, and grenadiers, and heavy machine guns, which were equipped with the second trench.
Now it was the infantry in the first trench that fired.
"Get down!"
In front of the position of the 2nd Squadron, the Japanese troops ushered in the intensive firepower of the 2nd Squadron, and the commanders began to play a role, directing the troops to avoid the bomb attack.
Despite this, the Japanese left behind many corpses and wailing wounded soldiers.
The Japanese army was suddenly attacked, and more than a dozen people were killed in the first round of fire of the second squadron, and the losses were not unheavy, and the Japanese army did not expect that the firepower of the second squadron was so fierce!
Takeda saw the firepower in the position of the second squadron, and only then did he really feel the fierceness of the firepower, and the moment he opened fire, he almost saw six or seven grenadiers or light mortars exploding in front of the formation (he didn't know that the national army in front of him was already equipped with the new equipment of gun grenades), and the rifle platoon shooting was also very accurate.
"The troops in front of the village are attacking and advancing quickly!"
Takeda, who was in the first-line reserve team, played the qualities of an officer and quickly made a decision on the battlefield, the second squadron on the right side of the road opened fire in advance, and the left side was not fighting now, and the firepower was all borne by the attacking troops on the right, and only when the two flanks were fully launched could the pressure on the right attack force be relieved.
After receiving Takeda's order, the Japanese troops attacking the left side of the road increased their pace and launched a fierce charge.
The Japanese troops attacking the position of the 2nd Squadron also set up the heavy machine guns equipped with them, and advanced in a carrying and leaping way to strengthen the covering firepower.
……
"Bell-poof"
The grenade on the muzzle of the Zhongzheng rifle was fired by a special bullet, and it made a characteristic grenade breaking sound, and the grenade flew out of the chamber diagonally, and landed in the Japanese formation with an arc trajectory, exploding.
"Reload!"
This is a defensive section of the first infantry squad of the 2nd Squadron, where everyone is doing their job, the light machine guns are firing in short bursts, and the riflemen are constantly firing in platoons.
The crackling of rifles intersected with the inaudible sound of light machine guns.
More than 60 meters in front of the battle, there were already many corpses of Japanese soldiers, and in the trench of this squad, there was also a corpse of a rifleman who had been pierced through the neck, and there was only one bullet hole in the front of the neck.
The back was rotten and unpresentable, and the whole head was stained red with bursting blood, and the flesh was bloodshot, and the blood flowed down the neck.
The corpse was left out of the way, and no one cared about it.
The grenadiers and grenades did their job.
The grenadier veteran beckoned the soldiers to help reload the grenade, and the reloaded recruit handed the shooter a slender grenade, lifted up, and exposed his head to the trench.
"Hit!" The recruit cheered, and the smoke from the grenade explosion had not yet dispersed a few dozen meters away, but he could clearly see a Japanese corpse under the smoke.
"Don't show your head, do you want to be punched through the neck? Get down. ”
As soon as the grenadier finished loading his grenade, he looked up and saw the recruits outside the trench with their heads exposed, yelling at the recruits.
The grenades were operated by three men, usually a rifle assault group, and another soldier crawled over and dragged the recruits who were outcropping out of the trenches.
With a bang, a bullet struck the recruit's steel helmet as he fell, making an unpleasant sound of steel twisting.
The grenadier was startled, put down the gun and hurriedly climbed over, only to see that the right side of the M35 steel helmet on the recruit's head had been twisted and deformed, and the hit helmet had taken off the black helmet paint, revealing the true color of steel.
The bullet sent the helmet flying.
Then a dense volley of bullets hit the trench in front of the recruits, dusting the trench.
The recruit was lucky that the bullet came sideways, and only a bloody stain was grazed on his head.
If he hadn't worn a steel helmet, but an ordinary combat cloth hat with only one button issued by ordinary troops, the recruit's head would have been a pulp.
The recruit lay on the ground, staring blankly at the sky, clearly stunned.
Seeing that the recruit was fine, the grenade cursed, and then took the gun and continued to shoot his grenade.
Another soldier dragged the frightened recruit to the hideout, grabbed a spare grenade, and took over as the secondary shooter.
The battle in the front-line trenches gradually became fierce, and now on the left side of the road, although the Japanese troops attacking the main force of the teaching brigade accelerated the attack, they did not exchange fire, and the Japanese troops attacking Mu Chao's department on the right side continued to launch assaults, and now they are approaching sixty or seventy meters away.
The 92 heavy machine guns and Type 89 grenadiers carried by these Japanese soldiers also began to suppress the trenches of the 2nd Squadron.
The pressure of the infantry in the first-line trenches of the 2nd Squadron increased sharply, the casualties in the trenches began to increase, and the grenade explosions rose in the trenches, which were caused by smoke and 92 heavy machine gun shells.
The Japanese assault group that was at the forefront approached the position of the 2nd Squadron by suppressing, leaping, attacking, and leaping again.
A Cao commander led six scattered Japanese troops forward, and the lines of fire in the rear crossed their heads and smashed into the position of the 2nd Squadron, which was a covering fire composed of Type 92 heavy machine guns and grenadiers.
Cao Chang, who had an experienced command, gave the order, and the six infantry cooperated with each other to cover, and the leap process was very smooth, and he was shot by the grenadiers and grenades of the second squadron plus the rifle platoon, and only paid the price of two killed.
Their smooth assault caused the Japanese troops attacking the 2nd Squadron as a whole to advance to a distance of 50 meters in front of the trench, which is a distance that can be attacked by a throwing grenade.
Cao Chang brandished his command knife, and his infantry accelerated the charge with heavy machine guns and grenadiers with bayonets, and drew grenades.
These Japanese infantry threw three or four grenades, which, together with the grenades fired from the grenadiers behind, exploded on the positions of the 2nd Squadron.
After the explosion, it was not the expected collapse, and the three ZB37 heavy machine guns in the second-line trenches of the 2nd Squadron suddenly opened fire in succession, covering the front of the 2nd Squadron's position in a fan-off manner.
For the heavy machine guns, the Japanese attack zone was an open field, without any dead ends, the three heavy machine guns had been firing short bursts before, even if the first-line trenches were bombarded by grenadiers and heavy machine guns, the heavy machine guns did not fire.
According to the instructions of peacetime and Mu Chao's instructions before the battle, these three heavy machine guns were to put the Japanese army in, and then use continuous fire to cause a large number of casualties to the Japanese army.
The fire surface of the three machine guns covered almost the entire frontal of the attacking Japanese troops.
At a distance of only fifty meters, the Japanese advance did not have time to dodge at all, and all of them fell in a dense and seamless rain of bullets......
