Chapter 503: Dead Top (7)
The infantry cannon behind Gu Yuan Zhenggang burst out with cannon smoke.
The 92nd infantry guns of the Takeda Brigade and the Guyuan Squadron to cover the attack began to fire in columns, representing that the retreat of the Guyuan Squadron had entered a peak.
On Gu Yuan's side, groups of Japanese soldiers retreated from him, of course, those who can retreat from Gu Yuan's side now are not the infantry on the front line, the front-line infantry, and the forwards are all in a hard battle with the teaching brigade.
"Hurry up, you guys quickly disengage!" Looking at the infantry of the third squad, Gu Yuan Zhenggang scolded, if the people behind don't go down, the people in front will retreat, next to his command position is the heavy machine gun position, Gu Yuan is prostrate on the ground, commanding and organizing heavy machine gun fire for a while, and giving the infantry an order to retreat for a while.
After the infantry artillery fired, the support firepower that the Guyuan squadron could get reached the highest peak, and the retreating Guyuan, who was eager to retreat, keenly seized the opportunity and constantly organized the retreat of the headquarters.
Gu Yuan Zhenggang sharply scolded the infantry around him to retreat, a Japanese infantry covered in dust and soot grabbed his rifle and crawled down, the barrel of the heavy machine gun next to Gu Yuan was hot, the two 92 heavy machine guns were all changed to continuous shooting, the deputy shooter pushed the bullet protection plate into the chamber, and the shells of the 7.7 bullet flew everywhere.
Guyuan Zhenggang hoped to pull the troops out by retreating in front of the enemy as quickly as possible, but the implementation still tested the organizational ability of the troops and the organizational ability of the officers.
Gu Yuan did a good job, and it didn't take long for him to retreat nearly half of the strength of the entire squadron.
"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, most of the third and second squads have withdrawn, and the striker and the first squad, and a part of the second squad are still engaged with the enemy forces."
A Japanese second lieutenant who was slightly injured climbed to Gu Yuan Zhenggang's side and said embarrassedly.
The second lieutenant officer was wearing a soldier's combat cap, which was matched with the officer's regular uniform and saber, and looked a little nondescript.
"How many of the second and first squads have not been withdrawn?" Gu Yuan didn't have time to pay attention to the strange outfit on the second lieutenant squad leader and asked.
This officer wearing a soldier's combat cap is the leader of the third squad of the Guyuan squadron, when attacking, the first and second squads of the Guyuan squadron are at the front, the third squad is at the end, and the retreat is also the first to retreat, those soldiers around Guyuan, most of them are the third squad, this squad leader, it is said that it should be the most relaxed, his squad is at the end, mainly responsible for suppressing and providing covering firepower, and the combat intensity is more than that of the first squadron and the second squadron.
But on the battlefield, there is no absolutely safe place, a crooked five-zero grenade exploded next to the squad leader, resulting in his minor injuries, as well as the "sideways flight" of the hat, and the squad leader of the third squad could only go and pick up a soldier's hat and put it on his head.
The encounter of the leader of the third squad is completely the epitome of the Guyuan squadron's attack and battle.
"The second squad is retreating, most of them can retreat, the first squad is more difficult, the enemy firepower is very strong, there are a lot of grenadiers!"
Like Guyuan Zhenggang, this squad leader was also very impressed by the fierce grenadier firepower of the teaching brigade, the Guyuan squadron had never fought with the Chinese army equipped with grenadiers, and all the grenadiers and grenades of the first squadron were fired in a salvo together, and the firepower was so fierce that he had never seen it before.
The corpses of the Japanese strikers in front of the position of the first squadron are enough to prove the shooting effect of the first squadron.
"Let your men continue to retreat, and cover the first and second squads after retreating!" Gu Yuan said.
So far, only more than half of the troops have been withdrawn, and more than half of the people are still entangled with the enemy army, so Gu Yuan can only organize the withdrawal of troops as soon as possible.
……
The third squad of the Guyuan Squadron, which was out of the danger range, immediately began to shoot on the spot again, covering the retreat of the first and second squads of the Guyuan Squadron in front, and the fierce firepower and difficult retreat happened to the Guyuan Squadron at the same time.
An infantry squadron had three infantry squadrons, the first squadron and most of the second squadron, all fighting against the first squadron of the teaching group.
The Type 92 heavy machine guns, infantry guns, and the firepower of the withdrawn infantry were all exerted on the positions of the 1st Squadron, and the brothers of Qiu Wei's 1st Squadron once again felt the pressure of a sharp increase.
The infantry of the first squadron, on the one hand, had to fire desperately, and on the other hand, they had to use the position of a squadron to meet such fierce firepower, and with the strength of a squadron, or a company, against the firepower of a reinforced Japanese infantry squadron, the soldiers of the first squadron of the teaching brigade gradually felt a little unbearable.
A shell from the 92nd Infantry Gun fell in front of the position of the 1st Squadron, and the 92nd Infantry Gun of the Infantry Artillery Squad of the Takeda Brigade was lined up more than 200 meters away.
The grenade of the 92nd infantry gun smashed more than ten meters in front of Qiu Wei, the leader of the first squadron, and the disgraced Qiu Wei stood up from the trench, glanced at the Japanese infantry guns, and then looked at the Japanese troops who were struggling with his subordinates in front of the position, and he felt very troubled.
In order to cover the retreat, the Japanese used all their firepower, including infantry guns, and it was this infantry gun that posed the greatest threat to the first squadron, and the heavy machine guns, rifle machine guns, and grenadiers were all dealt with by the first squadron.
Every grenade thrown by the remnants of the Guyuan Squadron in front of the 1st Squadron's position and every bullet fired will face dense 1st Squadron fire in the next second.
The 92 Infantry Gun was more than 200 meters away, and the rifle machine gun could not hit it accurately at all, and it was useless to fire a few stray bullets.
The firing range of the Chinese-made Type 27 grenadier equipped by the 1st squadron is only more than 200 meters, which is barely the same distance as the infantry artillery column.
However, if you really use a grenadier to fight, it will not be able to effectively curb the fire of the enemy artillery, and the distance between the 92 rifle gun and the position is almost the maximum range of the grenadier.
The lethality of infantry shells was much greater than that of bullets, and a single shot of the 92nd infantry smashed at it, either causing casualties or suppressing the fire of a squadron of soldiers against the former Japanese army.
In order to avoid the shelling, the soldiers lay in the trenches, and the external firepower was naturally reduced.
"Squadron leader, there is no loss of light machine guns, that is, the deputy squad leader of the eighth squad was killed!"
Just after probing the casualties, the herald of the first squadron who ran over said.
Qiu Wei, who was blown up by the shell, pushed the herald: "Damn, go to the second squadron next door, let the second squadron leader give us some fire support, and also shoot a few rounds of grenadiers and grenade salvos!" ”
After being bombarded, he couldn't deal with the Japanese infantry artillery, and Qiu Wei didn't want to make the Japanese infantry in front of the position feel better.
The firepower lost by the 1st squadron due to the shelling will be made up for by the 2nd squadron!
"Yes!
The heralds of the 1st Squadron rushed to the position of the 2nd Squadron.
………… The 1st Squadron and the 2nd Squadron of the Teaching Brigade were exchanging fire with the Guyuan Squadron, while the 3rd Squadron in the second-line trenches were very comfortable, and the soldiers of the 3rd Squadron and the Heavy Machine Gun Platoon of the Heavy Fire Squadron in the position did not fire a single shot, and quietly held their positions.
Zhang Wei was in the position of the 3rd Squadron, observing the retreat of the Guyuan Squadron, and it was all of the 1st Squadron and a small part of the 2nd Squadron of the first line that resisted the Japanese attack.
In this battle, Zhang Wei did not command much, the heavy firearms of the brigade did not fire, and only relied on the strength of the first squadron and the second squadron to defeat the Japanese attack.
As for how many Japanese soldiers were killed, it was not the first consideration, so he did not give superfluous battle orders, let alone let the heavy firearms of the 3rd Squadron and the Group open fire to attack.
After the Japanese infantry artillery joined the bombardment, the first squadron was obviously a little overwhelmed, and it was a foregone conclusion that the Japanese army would be repulsed, but Zhang Wei would not sit idly by and watch his own people being bombarded, and he did not mind using shells to add some food to the retreating Japanese troops.
The only way to suppress the shelling now is to interfer with the Japanese infantry artillery, and the only way to do this is the 82nd Mortar Platoon of the Heavy Fire Squadron.
