Chapter Eighty-Seven: A Brutal Battle
"Boom Boom Boom ......" is another round of intensive artillery fire to Fu Zhiyong and their side to cover over, because this time Fu Zhiyong pressed all the reserves up, the input of troops has almost three infantry battalions of combat infantry, so at this time the personnel in the trenches are very dense, as soon as the Japanese artillery fire arrived, they panicked and retracted into the anti-artillery pit, due to too many personnel, many soldiers are two people reluctantly squeezed into a anti-artillery pit, even if they can only be blocked half of their bodies, That was also better than being completely exposed to the bombardment of Japanese artillery.
"Don't mess around! Stay in the anti-artillery pit and get ready to fight! Yu Hua...... Stabilize the troops for me, whether it is success or failure depends on this trembling! Fu Zhiyong didn't dare to run around and command the troops anymore at this time, so he could only hug Lu Fengying and barely shrank in the anti-artillery pit and shouted.
"Lying ...... Phew...... Get down! Don't run around, grass! Give me back......" Yu Hua was lying in another anti-artillery pit at this time and kept yelling loudly, although he didn't hear Fu Zhiyong's greeting, but he still tried his best to command the chaotic troops, and easily grabbed an inexperienced reinforcement who was running around and dragged him into the anti-artillery pit.
Fu Zhiyong's anti-artillery pit is not like the kind of cat ear hole invented in the later period, but the only difference is that there is no roof, but directly along the edge of the trench cut out, the place is very small, the purpose is to cover the shrapnel flying everywhere in the already small space, two people can squeeze in and face to face, plus the rumbling explosion outside, not to mention how uncomfortable it feels.
As soon as the five minutes passed, the shells gradually decreased, and Fu Zhiyong and a few other officers immediately squeezed out of the anti-artillery pit, and while checking the weapons and ammunition in their hands, they organized the troops to prepare to resist the ghost infantry brigade that rushed up.
"Captain! What the fuck is going on? And what about the infantry of the little devils? At this time, Chen San asked loudly at Fu Zhiyong, who was running over, with a head of soil foam.
"What the fuck is going on? Hurry up and transfer your people to Lao Tzu to Wu Guowei's side, the devils are all fucking running to his side, it seems that they want to make a detour to stab Lao Tzu in the eye, it's really fucking insidious; Hurry up and ...... Hurry up and support the defense line of the third battalion, Zhang Dali! Zhang Dali: Where did your grandmother's death go? I'm still panting and I'll give Lao Tzu a reply! Fu Zhiyong said a word to Chen San in a hurry, and then continued to run forward to find Zhang Dali of the light artillery battalion.
Originally, Fu Zhiyong's location was not very clear, and after the indiscriminate bombing just now, he couldn't find it, so he could only see soldiers with light machine guns along the way, so he beckoned them to rush to Wu Guowei's third battalion position to support.
"Captain! Captain, I'm here! Zhang Dali replied loudly at this time while cleaning up the dust on the light machine gun, and at the same time dealing with Zhiyong who ran over.
"Dali, you quickly take two machine gun companies to support Wu Guowei's third battalion, one machine gun company here is enough, no matter how much it costs, I must withstand this wave of attacks." Fu Zhiyong ran to Zhang Dali's side, held a telescope and glanced at the approaching devil infantry outside, and urged Zhang Dali without looking back.
"Knowing the regiment commander, the first and second companies of the light artillery battalion will follow me!" Zhang vigorously shook the Czech light machine gun and said yes, then shouted to his soldiers, and he himself ran out with the light machine gun in his hand.
At this time, the Japanese infantry pressing on Fu Zhiyong's side also had two brigades of more than 1,000 people, and there were devils with similar strength in the distance who made a detour to Wu Guowei's side, and thanks to Fu Zhiyong's telescope, it was really not easy to find out the real attack intention of the Japanese army.
After all, he has been replenished by troops here, and there are nearly 1,000 combatants alone, while Wu Guowei only has two companies of troops stationed there, although there is a lot of light machine gun firepower, but after all, the number of people is there, even a light machine gun must be used by someone, according to the Japanese army's four-to-one superiority of troops, even if there is no artillery support, it is enough to exhaust them, and if they do not support, they will definitely not be able to hold it.
You must know that the reason why their Central Military Police Teaching Corps was able to withstand the attack of a division of Japanese planes on Qixia Mountain was not only by relying on firepower and personnel quality, but more importantly, by relying on favorable terrain, the Japanese army could not exert any number of troops, so that they could stubbornly withstand the Japanese army and launch a tidal attack.
"Three hundred meters away! All ready for battle...... Two hundred meters away! Hold steady and don't shoot indiscriminately...... One hundred and fifty meters away! Give Lao Tzu a hit! ......When the Japanese army entered a distance of one hundred and fifty meters, Fu Zhiyong smashed the telescope in his hand on the dirt bag on the trench, shouted, and copied the Czech light machine gun next to him and fired violently.
"Da da da ......" "bang ......" For a while, a series of tongues of fire appeared in the entire trench, and dense gunpowder smoke suddenly rose up on the entire defensive position, as if a white ribbon was floating in the air.
More than a dozen light machine guns opened fire together, and the dense fire immediately swept down several layers of the Japanese infantry advancing in this direction, but this death barrage composed of dense bullets lasted for seven or eight seconds before it had to stop, and only a large number of rifles continued to fire.
"Gude ......" The Japanese side also began to organize machine gun shooters to counterfire after paying the price of 100 casualties, and the Japanese infantry with rifles roared angrily and rushed towards Fu Zhiyong's defensive position like a tide.
"Magazines! Bring me a magazine, grassy! "Bang!" The light machine gun in Fu Zhiyong's hand ran out of a magazine of twenty rounds in a few seconds, and when Fu Zhiyong wanted to change the bullets from the new one, he found that he had no machine gun magazine on his body at all, and he himself was a Czech light machine gun that he had snatched up improvised, so the ammunition man did not keep up, and immediately threw away the Czech light machine gun that was out of bullets, and raised his hand to fire a shot with the rifle next to him......
"Hurry, hurry...... Carry them away, there are two more over there, and a few people came over to carry them down and hurry up for treatment. At this time, Lu Fengying was running back and forth in the trenches with her waist bent, commanding some strong men of the stretcher team to carry the injured to the rear for treatment.
Fu Zhiyong knew that the fighting of positional warfare was not something that a girl like Lu Fengying could accept for a while, so he withdrew her and was responsible for the rescue of the wounded.
Fu Zhiyong, a professional field medical worker like Bai Yuling and Namie Oda, was reluctant to let them go to the front line to personally rescue the wounded, so they were all arranged in a temporary ambulance station on the south bank of Dongxi Bridge, specifically responsible for rescuing the wounded who had been evacuated from the battlefield, providing medical support as much as possible, and reducing unnecessary combat attrition losses.
These soldiers who have been wounded on the battlefield as long as they are not crippled are all baby Gada, the first battle is the new recruit's eggs, as soon as they hear the sound of cannons, they run around in a panic, but after they are cured, they will go to the battlefield again, it will be another realm, their minds and techniques will be much calmer, and their combat effectiveness will rise in a straight line.
"A row! One row, immediately organize people to support me on the left side! Even if you fight the last person left, you must ensure that Lao Tzu does not lose the position, and my Sichuan army has never fought a battle that lost its position! Give Lao Tzu a hard beating......" Wu Guowei was also standing in front of the position at this time, holding a rifle and shooting at the Japanese infantry who pressed up, while observing the surrounding situation from time to time and directing the troops to fight.
The pressure on Wu Guowei's side at this time is already quite large, Fu Zhiyong's side can fight with the little devil, it is all relying on complete firepower and sufficient soldiers, and his side is a little unbearable, although the round of shelling just now did not hit the defensive position on his side, but when the Japanese infantry rushed up and exchanged fire, they found that it was difficult, about two hundred meters of shooting, they were not the opponent of the elite devil infantry at all, although the battle damage still had a lot of advantages compared to them, But people can't keep up with the losses.
Although there were two machine gun companies supported by Zhang Dali, but it was only in the first five minutes or so, the casualties were also quite large, especially the light machine gun shooters, who were the key targets of the Japanese firepower, and several machine gunners were given a headshot by the devil before they ran out of magazines, and the position of the light machine gun fire continued to burst out a large number of soil flowers, and dust and grass clippings were fired by the bullets of the Arisaka-style 38 rifle that flew everywhere.
When a machine gun shooter is killed, the sub-shooter next to him who is responsible for supplying ammunition will immediately push his body away, lie on the light machine gun and immediately continue to shoot, there is no time to take a second look at the corpse and tragic condition of his companion, and the nearby infantry will immediately carry their rifles and take the position of the sub-shooter who supplies ammunition, and so on and so on, one after another, the sacrifice of the shot will be made up, and the sacrifice will be made up again, as long as there is still one who can breathe, as long as the ammunition can keep up, as long as the barrel can still withstand it, then continue to fire, There are only two ways to get them to stop shooting, either the people are dead, or the devils retreat, and even if the light machine gun hits the chamber, they will not stop their movements.
"Grenadier ready! One hundred and twenty meters directly in front of the target...... Put! "Knock knock knock ......"
Look at the battle has entered a white-hot state, Zhang Dali no longer has reservations, and the two grenadier squads that were barely put together also immediately put into battle, although the grenadier Fu Zhiyong They have captured a lot, and it is not a problem to put together a grenadier to discharge, but the key to the problem is that the grenade used in the grenadier is too few, if a grenadier platoon fires together, it is estimated that after four or five waves of attacks, it will face a state of dumb fire, It is better to concentrate all the ammunition and hand it over to two grenadier squads that have undergone a short period of training to use, and the precision strikes that improve the accuracy are obviously more practical.
