521. There are so many things that you can't put down
The 59th Army came from the first division in the world, and the fifth division of the Japanese army is also known as the first division of Japan, the most courageous troops of the two countries.
Therefore, in the face of the strongest opponent in his life, no one wants to shrink back into defense, everyone wants to rush out and fight together.
When the two strong meet, the fierce one wins!
The second battalion that was rigidly guarding the main position of Tingzitou Village, under the leadership of the hero battalion elder Ran, actually launched a counter-charge against the besieging Japanese army.
I used to bully the soft bones of the Japanese army, but I didn't expect that China still had such hard-headed troops, who would not retreat when they were killed, and would not collapse until the end, even if they were all killed.
cowardly, the devil coaxed, and had to retreat temporarily.
The devil infantry, who did not have tanks, did not know how to fight, and retreated under the constant counter-charge of the desperate Chinese soldiers.
Or, the Japanese commander did not want to waste the lives of his soldiers in such a close combat with great chance, in which no matter how good the quality of the soldiers was, there was a possibility of accidental casualties.
The position of Tingzitou Village, under the defense of the active counterattack, was once again preserved, but the price was also very huge, and there were more than 400 people in the battalion, and now there are less than 300 people left.
This battle was fought in the dark, noon had passed, and everyone didn't know it until after defeating the devils and returning to the position to cover themselves, only to find that they were hungry.
The people in the cooking class were all used by the reserve team on the spot, and no one cooked, so everyone just had dry food and drank some water from the kettle, which was a meal.
However, what was surprising was that the battalion headquarters sent people to send some canned Japanese food, authentic canned beef, and everyone ate to the fullest.
It turned out that in the underground warehouse of the main position, in addition to the ammunition left by the Japanese army, there were some dry food and canned food.
Originally, Lao Ran planned to keep it for the troops to enjoy slowly, and he was going to take a little bit to "bribe" the regiment commander to come back in exchange for some good weapons and ammunition.
But now looking at this battle, it is really fierce, many soldiers go up and disappear, Lao Ran doesn't want them to die without even enjoying some delicious food, how sad.
Besides, I don't know if I can survive until the night this time, and it's hard to say, looking at this devil, he is indeed powerful, and he has never met it before.
The devil is determined to lay down this position, so he will rest assured to cross the river and attack the Chinese army on the west bank of the river, otherwise, if Mang is on his back, he will not be at ease with this thorn.
Therefore, Lao Ran no longer held on to it, and took out all these canned beef and gave them to his brothers, so that they could taste some delicious food before they died, and they could go on the road when they were full.
Lao Ran learned from the intelligence of the observer that more and more of the devils came from behind, and they all stayed in the positions on the bank of the river, and there were more and more troops besieging them.
The rough lines of Lao Ran suddenly became delicate, looking at the faint winter sun overhead, his eyes were also spent, perhaps, this is his last chance to see the sun.
I don't know if the old mother in the old family on the plateau in northern Shaanxi is also looking at this same sun, and the mother of the child is worried, let alone thousands of miles away from the army.
I don't know how the young wife and young children in the family will continue to live in the future? Alas! In this life, although people are not afraid of death, there are still too many things that they can't let go of when they die.
……
Just after lunch, the Japanese attacked again, but this time it was different from the last two times, and they concentrated all their heavy fire on the three westernmost forts.
The Japanese army finally changed its previous elm head, changed its attack tactics, changed the siege from all sides to deal with it with all its might, wanted to break through a little, and then expand the results of the battle in depth, so as to achieve the effect of finally blossoming in the center and attacking in all directions.
These three forts were the focus of the previous death attack of the three battalions, and the Demomen blew them into big teeth, and now although some repairs and reinforcements have been made, they are still not enough due to haste and lack of materials.
What's even more troublesome is that because it is the Yishui behind it, relatively speaking, it belongs to the rear of the position in Tingzitou Village, and the troops arranged by Lao Ran are not the main force there.
The devil is really vicious, even if he attacks a little behind the back, those three fortresses are taken care of by the Japanese artillery and tanks, and they are constantly bombed.
The devil doesn't engage in infantry artillery coordination now, because there is a period of time between the end of the cannon in infantry artillery coordination and the soldier's charge, and this time is always used by Chinese soldiers.
In this short period of time, the Chinese soldiers crawled out of the bunker and took up a good defensive position, which was equivalent to the cannon bombardment in vain.
The devil now not only focused on attacking, but also adopted a combination of artillery and artillery, a tactic that had not been used before, and even Lao Ran and them saw it for the first time.
The tactics of artillery coordination are actually very simple, that is, when the artillery bombards the opponent's position, the tank moves to the front of the position, and also makes a rapid charge after the coordinated attack and artillery bombardment is over.
In the general coordination of infantry and artillery, the infantry should be at least more than 300 meters away from the artillery fire, because the barrage of artillery, under normal circumstances, there will be more than 100 meters of shrapnel flying over.
Moreover, the impact point of the cannon is not 100% accurate, and when the cannon is fired several miles away, the muzzle of the cannon is not 100 meters off, and the shell is 100 meters off.
For example, the strong recoil force after the last shell was fired will cause the difference in the cannon mount to cause the projectile impact point to deviate from the trajectory and fall to an unknown place, and this error is within 500 meters, which is normal.
Therefore, when this kind of heavy artillery bombards the opponent's position, most of the infantry waiting to charge should be 500 meters away from safety, and there are also infantry who are not killed, within 300 meters.
Of course, there are also your own infantry who were killed by mistake, depending on how the commander thinks about this kind of thing.
However, the tank is not afraid of shrapnel from artillery shells, and can risk driving the tank within 300 meters of the position, but if it is hit by a heavy artillery shell, the tank will be scrapped.
It also depends on how the commander of the unit thinks and how to measure this matter, after all, the tank is much more expensive than a single soldier, but the probability of being hit by his own shells is relatively small, after all, no matter how wrong the cannon is, not all of them go to the tank.
Therefore, the Japanese commanders who could not capture Tingzitou Village for a long time gambled with tanks, because they did not have many tanks in the first place, and they would not have densely formed a tank group to attack.
Therefore, in the face of a little concentrated attack, three tanks were arranged, and each tank was aimed at the bunker of a fortress and carried out close and artillery bombardment.
The devil's cannon shells generally fall around the fortress bunker, and it is difficult to hit such a small point of the fortress, but the tank gun is different, at a distance of three hundred meters, the shell can be sent directly into the position of the fortress's gun hole.
If one shot misses, it doesn't matter, then come, continue after adjustment, and hit dozens of shots in a row, and naturally several shots will hit the bullet hole.
