315. Fierce Battle on Qinglong Mountain
I don't know how many times the Japanese army has attacked, after a few rounds of heavy artillery shells, the position at the foot of the mountain was blown into potholes, and there were almost no living creatures on the scorched yellow ground.
Even so, in the smoke of the battle, the Japanese army rushed towards the position in four columns under the cover of four tanks.
When the Japanese tank passed through the raised body in front of the chest wall of the trench, one of the tanks cocked its head, and its whole belly was exposed, and suddenly the soldiers got out of the floating soil of the trench and threw a cluster grenade under the tank.
The huge explosion and impact force blew up the devil's tank, and due to the uneven ground, the tank rolled over in the trench when it landed.
Without the cover of tanks, the devil column behind was all exposed under the machine guns of the national army, and there was a burst of machine guns like fried beans.
A column of devils in green uniforms was beaten to the ground and twisted and struggled in pain like a long green earthworm.
However, our machine guns were immediately bombarded by the guns of other tanks, and even the men and guns were disintegrated by the bombs, and the remains of the sacrificed soldiers were scattered with flesh and blood.
However, in the face of the threat of death, the officers and men of the national army were not afraid, and rushed to the remaining tanks one after another, holding explosives bags, making human bombs, rushing to the tanks to pull the fuse, and sacrificing their lives to blow up the devil's tank.
Some rushed in front of the tank, but before they could reach it, they were strafed and killed by the machine guns on the tank, and even if the tank was blown down, the machine guns and tank guns on the tank were still fighting.
There were several more daredevils, who continued to charge and climbed onto the tank, often either killed by the machine guns inside the tank or by the devil infantry who were protecting the tank behind.
In order to blow up a tank, the national army had to pay a lot of lives, and when the battle was fought to this extent, I felt that both sides were crazy, and they didn't take their lives seriously.
Sangou really can't figure it out, it is understandable that the Chinese soldiers are going forward to protect their families, defend the country, and defend the capital.
I just don't understand, you little devil, go to other people's land, go to a place that has nothing to do with you, go desperately, go to work hard, what is it for?
Alas! No matter how much it is, the 3rd Battalion and 8th Company of the 301st Regiment, which was originally a reserve on the top of the mountain, have gone down to reinforce them, and they are replaced by the 3rd Battalion and 7th Company of the 306th Regiment of Sangou.
Looking at the fortifications dug in eight rows, it was okay, but it was still not qualified, and Sangou immediately threw away his burden and ordered everyone to continue excavating the fortifications.
Don't dig at the top of the hill on the devil's side, digging again is useless, and it's not enough for people to have a shell, and it will be destroyed in a few minutes.
Instead, dig deeper at the top of the mountain, although it will be knocked out by bombs, but after all, this should be used as a chest wall protector, but the top of the mountain is full of sand and gravel and cemented hard soil, which is difficult to dig into, and there is no way, you can dig an inch more and dig an inch down.
The main energy of Sangou is mainly behind the ridge line of the mountain, also called the place of the anti-slope, digging new fortifications, in order to prevent the Japanese army's curved artillery, to dig into the mountain, dig out the bunker, it is a simple hiding hole.
Sangou set up two observation posts at the top of the mountain, and he also took a telescope to inspect the battle situation, the third battalion of the 301st Regiment was almost unable to withstand it, and the Japanese firepower was too fierce.
There are at least a dozen mortars of the devils, and they are constantly raining grenades at the junction between the positions of the national army, hitting and blocking the advance of the reinforcements while hitting the fire points of the national army.
There were also rampaging tanks, crushing and strafing back and forth in the positions of the national army, invincible, and the defenders of the first line of positions were divided into scattered small numbers by tanks, unable to organize an effective group defense.
They had to fight on their own, either to defend against the Japanese tank, or to find a way to blow it up, and to watch out for the Japanese infantry.
Those infantry are also very good, such a close distance, almost in the middle of the gun, the national soldiers can only think of a way, first blow up the tank in front of them.
After losing a lot of troops, the tanks were finally finished, and the Japanese infantry also rushed up, one to protect the tank crews in the tank, and the other to charge over and occupy the position.
The defenders had no time to fight the fleeing tank soldiers, so they fought with the Japanese infantry with bayonets, and the two sides fought together, and some soldiers were stabbed by the devils, so they clung to the barrels of the bayonets with both hands, and the devils pulled out the bayonets.
In order to prevent the devil from pulling out the bayonet and stabbing it again, he also let his comrades come up and kill this devil, and the devil is the same, he clung to the bayonet when he was stabbed.
Seeing that some opponent's comrades-in-arms rushed over, the devil had to let go of his hand and escape, and the wounded comrades had a chance to escape from the battlefield.
Looking at such a tragic scene, if it was in the past, Sangou would definitely rush down to support, but now it is different, there is still a company of people behind him waiting for command.
And depending on the situation, it is useless to rush down with more than 100 people, there are more and more devils, more and more crazy, and they go down in a row, and it is estimated that before they reach the foot of the mountain, they will be killed by mortars halfway up the mountain.
As a qualified commander, you must be calm and rational in tense situations, who wouldn't be hot-blooded? Everyone is willing to be enthusiastic, but the commander must be rational when he should be calm, and he cannot take more than a hundred lives to satisfy his whimsical enthusiasm.
Seeing that the position could not be held, the main force of the third battalion began to retreat to both sides of the foot of the mountain, and it was impossible to retreat to the top of the mountain at this time, because the hill on the slope was unobstructed, and there was no place to hide, and it would be blown up one by one by the mortar of the devils.
Now the dozens of soldiers left in the front position, in order to cover their comrades-in-arms, can drag the pursuit footsteps of the devil and bite the devil to the death.
Although they were surrounded by many devils, they were not afraid to retreat, but they wanted to make a weak counterattack to counterattack, which seemed to be very self-sufficient.
But you have to see that this is exchanging their lives for the retreat of the brothers behind them, and they are not ridiculous, but very amiable and respectable.
Watching them being stabbed and killed by the devils one by one, one by one, they were blown up with the devils, and they became a cloud of blood mist, and the three dogs, who had not shed tears for a long time and didn't know what the tears were, raised their hands and saluted them with tears in their eyes.
"Brothers, you go first, and wait for us to avenge you! Come on, little devil! ”
Sangou read silently, asking the two observation posts to keep their bodies as low as possible, so as not to let the Japanese army find that there were people on the top of the mountain, and he closely observed the Japanese army's offensive situation.
The Japanese soldiers were divided into three routes, two of which followed the foot of the mountain to chase the retreating men and horses of the second battalion of the 301st Regiment, and the largest one climbed up the mountain road, preparing to seize the hill in one fell swoop.
