Chapter 173: Magnificent Glory
We braved the heavy fire of the Japanese army in the Nu River to rush left and right, dodging the incessant artillery fire.
We would like to thank our comrades who were stationed far away in India, and the troops stationed in India who had wounded the Japanese troops in Burma, without which the heavy artillery of the Japanese army on the west bank would not have been able to be transferred.
If the Japanese heavy artillery had not been transferred, with our offensive posture today, the casualties would definitely be more than double that of today!
In the rain of bullets in the Nu River, when I cursed our stupid pigs countless times to the peak, the long-awaited artillery suppression finally came, although it came a little late, but it finally came.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The deafening sound of artillery shells exploding on our positions on the West Bank, and all our military targets marked with coordinates on the West Bank were gradually bombarded by our artillery fire.
With the suppression of artillery fire, the pressure on our follow-up troops in the Nu River was suddenly reduced, and it was obvious that the Japanese fire on the west bank was not as fierce as it was at the beginning.
"Paddle hard! Take advantage of the cover of this round of artillery fire, land on the shore as soon as possible, and wait for the interval of this round of artillery fire, and the devil's artillery fire should come again! "I shouted loudly in the Nu River.
I don't need to remind you, these Qiu Ba who died in the Nu River can also see the situation. The speed of rowing was almost frenzied, and everyone knew that they were in danger, and that the Nu River and the tidal flats were our life and death line.
Qiu Ba was rescued by us, and Qiu Ba was constantly overboard, because the Japanese fire continued, although they were suppressed by our artillery fire, it did not mean that they had no ability to fight back at all.
The Japanese troops on the west bank also saw that these people in the Nu River were the weakest link in the entire offensive end.
Our ability to fight back was limited, we could only fire while rowing, and there was no mobility in the Nu River, and we couldn't dodge the shells when we saw them whizzing, so we had to let fate explode wherever the shells exploded.
Beating the water dogs is talking about our situation at this time.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Although the Japanese Army's Type 38 burst fire was not as fierce as the heavy machine guns, the accuracy of the Japanese soldiers' shooting made up for their lack of firepower to a great extent.
For every dozen shots, one of them was shot, and when we looked at our comrades who were bleeding from the guns, there was nothing we could do except grit our teeth and shoot the bullets past.
The follow-up troops of the first battalion finally crossed the Nu River amid the sound of gunfire, and as soon as the equipment for crossing the river landed, I stepped on the water and stepped on the tidal flats on the west bank.
I yelled and said, "Arm! Defend in place! ”
I rushed headlong into the improvised bunker that had been set up by the front army, and Ani and Adjutant Liu rushed in later, and with concealment, at least I could no longer worry about colliding with the bullets of the Japanese army at any time.
Ani put the sniper rifle on the bunker, bang! Continuous shooting into the mountains. Ani didn't see panic at all, but was full of fighting spirit, and it seemed that even if she was left here, she would be able to fight again.
Tan Weimin took the people of the third company to step on the stagnant water and also went ashore, I looked at a rough circle, did not see the commander of the third company, and said: "What about your company commander?" His own company has already gone ashore, why hasn't he come up yet! ”
A Qiu Ba said with a crying voice: "Battalion commander, our company commander was killed in the first round of artillery fire from the devils!" ”
I was shocked and said, "Blown up? What about people? ”
That Qiu Ba simply squatted on the ground and cried, and said, "When the company commander was killed, he fell into the Nu River, and he couldn't even find a shadow. ”
"We want to avenge the company commander! Follow me, brethren! Tan Weimin played his role as a company deputy, and was about to rush up the mountain with a gun.
I shouted, "What are you rushing for?" We are the follow-up reinforcements, and now we are the main attack of the friendly legion, and it is not our turn yet! Stand back, all back down, dig trenches on the spot, dig individual trenches, and form a line at two points into a traffic trench! ”
I took out my binoculars and looked at the foot of Moyunling Mountain, where the main force of the friendly regiment was attacking the Japanese army's first defensive position one after another.
It is too difficult to say that such a hit rate cannot be hit, and people are constantly being planted and shot. The fallen Qiu Hachi was not necessarily shot, but also accidentally fell on a slippery mountain road.
It is the strength of a regiment that our army has put into the attack, and the defenders on the Moyunling Mountain are a wing, and it is said that the strength of a wing cannot concentrate the firepower of the entire wing in one place, and it should be relatively scattered, but the Japanese army let us see what it means to concentrate firepower impossibly!
Their light and heavy machine-gun grenadiers, as well as some artillery fire groups, almost the entire wing, were firing at friendly regiments attacking at the foot of the hill.
Just as we judged before, our army attacked from the bottom of the mountain, which is a state of upward attack, which is to attack with bullets on the head. The Japanese army condescended and carried out wanton shooting drills against our troops on the bare hillside.
"Why did the artillery stop?" I held my binoculars and turned back to look at our artillery position, which had now died down and stopped shelling, as if the task had been completed after bombing the marked coordinates.
Huang Wenlie also crossed the river with the guard company, and quickly set up a temporary headquarters in the hidden place of the river beach.
When I came to the headquarters, my face must have been ugly, and Huang Wenlie was asking Zhang Da: "How are the casualties of the second battalion?"
Zhang Da said: "The preliminary statistics also have 50 people, and this still does not include the wounded soldiers who were slightly injured. ”
Huang Wenlie turned to me and said, "What about the first battalion?" ”
I said almost angrily: "The first battalion suffered nearly seventy casualties, and there were countless minor wounds!" ”
Huang Wenlie didn't care about my emotions, just was silent for a while, and said: "To fight a war is to die, this is an eternal truth. None of us can change it, and the brothers who sacrificed are all good men of our generation, and it is a heroic and glorious life to sacrifice their lives for the country! ”
Continuing to play on my bad mood, I said, "Tuanza, isn't the price of the glorious glory of the dead brothers a little too great? We could have avoided such a big sacrifice! ”
Huang Wenlie said coldly: "Are you complaining that the friendly army did not obey the order to cross the river in advance?" I have already informed the military headquarters about this matter, and when the war is over, the military headquarters will severely punish those who violate the military order! ”
I muttered under my breath, "There's a fart!" ”
Huang Wenlie's ears were very sharp, he glared at me and said sharply: "Camp Commander An, it's best to put away your complaints now, fight this battle well, and let the blood of the dead brothers not be shed in vain, this is what you should do now!" Although I love talents, when the two armies are fighting, I am also proud of killing talents! ”
