Chapter 157: Battle for King Luo Station (5)

When he was about to arrive at the starting position, Zhang Wei led the infantry of the second company into the starting position along the communication trench, and the chariot drove dozens of meters behind to standby, and it was an infantry company of the 155th Division that cooperated with his attack, in addition to more reserves. X's first two attacks had to allow the officers of the 155th Division to reduce their attacking strength, and the dense formation and excessive offensive force were useless in front of the Japanese troops occupying the station.

came with the infantry company, and the liaison staff officer sent by the 155th Division discussed the details of the coordinated operation with Zhang Wei, and next to him, the platoon commander of the infantry company of the 155th Division who attacked with Zhang Wei and them was also there.

"Brother, after a while, we attacked, followed closely, the formation dispersed, we are in front, you are behind, now the devil is in the two trenches on the periphery, the first one has been abandoned by them, the two attacks just now, they can't bear it, in addition to these two trenches, the devil seems to have built a temporary defense line with sandbags outside the station, as long as these two places are captured outside, it will be no problem to enter the station, at this time, let the brothers of the reserve team pounce together, and strive to take the station in one fell swoop!"

Several officers didn't say anything, they all nodded in agreement, after all, it was Zhang Wei who sang the leading role on the battlefield now.

Zhang Wei and the attacking soldiers stayed in the trench and prepared to attack, and for a while it was still the old rule that the artillery battalion of the 64th Army would provide them with fire cover, and this time, in order to improve accuracy, the entire artillery battalion moved forward by more than a kilometer.

There was a sound of tearing the air in the sky, and the 75 Mountain shells flew straight towards the Japanese army with the air wave caused by the shells breaking through the air. The position of the artillery position is closer, and the accuracy is naturally better, most of the shells fell to the original second line of defense of the Japanese army, to be precise, the current first line of defense, and the Japanese were blown up solidly, and a few more fell crookedly on the open space in front, blowing up the corpses on the ground into the sky, and then falling to the ground is already a pile of minced meat.

In Zhang Wei's telescope, in front of the Japanese position and on the position, there were corpses of dead soldiers everywhere, stumps and broken arms and damaged weapons and firearms were thrown all over the ground, I don't know how the recruits of the second company would react when they saw it, at this time Zhang Wei was very glad that he personally led the team, if these recruits were allowed to deal with this kind of scene alone, I don't know what would happen.

After the shelling, six T26 tanks began to move forward and left the starting position, and the six tanks lined up in a horizontal line, providing a line of cover for the infantry behind. The tank kept accelerating, it had already driven more than twenty meters, and it was time for the infantry to get on.

"All of them! Get on the bayonet! ”

The grinding of the bayonet and the leather bayonet sleeve, and the sound of the bayonet sticking came and went, and the soldiers made the final preparations before the attack, and the veterans such as the squad leader and deputy squad leader unscrewed the grenade cover in advance and pulled out the hair line. The same is true of the infantry company of the Cantonese army, which was located after the second company.

Mu Chao crawled over, holding a rifle in each hand, and handed one to Zhang Wei.

"Battalion commander, it's better to mix them together for a while."

Zhang Wei took the rifle, pulled the bolt, and immediately popped out a golden seventy-nine pointed rifle bullet, picked up the bullet again, loaded it in the gun, and loaded the bullet, and a stream of heat emanated from the two hands holding the gun to Zhang Wei's whole body.

The chariot in front had already driven more than fifty meters.

"Brethren, it's time, come on!"

Zhang Wei jumped out of the trench, behind him were more than 100 people of the second company and the same number of officers and soldiers of the 155th Division, all of them were running fast, more than 100 people of the second company were platoons as units, forming three skirmish lines, and the strict training in peacetime finally took effect, and the requirement of a distance of five meters between individual soldiers on the infantry drill was not completely achieved, but also ** points. The officers and men of the 155th Division behind them also followed the example of the officers and men of the second company in front, slowly and slightly chaotically imitating the offensive formation of the second company.

The chariot was in front, the infantry was behind, the car and the infantry were separated by a distance of twenty meters, and the Japanese position in front of them was attacked, the speed of the chariot was accelerating, and it was about to approach the first trench lost by the Japanese army, and the infantry's charge speed also changed from fast to slow, and the squad leader and deputy squad leader urged the surrounding soldiers of the squad to run forward quickly, while trying not to let them notice the dead bodies around them.

"Boom!" When the tracks of the chariot were about to run over the first line of trenches, the Japanese fire began to spray, the first to fire was the 92nd infantry gun located on the roof of the station building, the first brigade captain Takeda Akira who was guarding the station ordered two guns to fire at a high elevation angle on the roof of the second floor to attack the infantry, and then the Japanese machine gun rifle fire located in the second line of trenches also followed.

The shells exploded in the formation of the advancing infantry, the fragments of the shotgun explosion scattered in all directions, knocking down many soldiers, and the direct fire of machine guns and rifles hit some of the soldiers, the bodies fell to the ground, the undead struggled on the ground, and the infantry suffered casualties.

Zhang Wei bent down to reduce the area of his exposed body, and commanded backwards: "Don't mess up, keep moving forward, the squad leader is steady." ”

Mu Chao was also commanding the stabilization forces, the orders of the two were issued, and the formation that had a tendency to change after suffering from the Japanese firepower slowly regained stability, and the recruits who were flustered at the beginning gradually got used to casualties, and they could only survive by rushing forward, and those who hesitated a little were taken away by bullets and shrapnel.

The Cantonese army in the back suffered fewer blows, and in addition to the shells, it was difficult for the bullets to cause them casualties, so the Cantonese army still rushed very Meng, and the formation was not chaotic.

It was not enough distance yet, and neither the charging second company nor the Cantonese troops behind fired back, and now, they could only endure it.

With a loud "boom", the tank ran over the first line of trenches at the same time, the 45mm tank gun and the vehicle-mounted DT tank machine gun began to fire at the second line of defense of the Japanese army, and the artillery fire of the six tanks covered the second line of defense of the Japanese army in an instant, and the first round of fire blew away a heavy machine gun and more infantry, and the Japanese infantry weapons were useless for the T26.

The Japanese 94 Type 37 anti-tank guns in the back opened fire, which was also helpless, and the 37 shells hit the T26's frontal armor and only left a crater, but instead exposed themselves, and the turrets of the two tanks immediately turned around and fired at the anti-tank gun positions next to the Japanese sandbag positions.

The 45 mm tank shells and vehicle-mounted machine gun shells were like demons for the Japanese infantry, and the 45-mm tank shells fired from a long distance had already blown up the Japanese army, and now they were greeted with vehicle-mounted machine guns when they were close, and the platoon commander Lu in command gave the order to shoot continuously with the vehicle-mounted radio, and the machine gunners of each vehicle pulled the trigger sharply and fired revenge bullets.

Many Japanese soldiers did not even dare to show their heads, and now, the tanks were only thirty meters away from the second line of defense of the Japanese army, and the tanks were at full power, and the tracks were dusting on the ground.

Seeing that the chariot was about to break through the Japanese position, it was the time to take the opportunity to break through, Zhang Wei immediately ordered the impact: "Rush, attack!" ”

The team of more than 300 people was full of strength, and the rifles in their hands fired bullets with all their might.
