Chapter 25: Scarlet Twilight (continued)
With the sound of Xiao Siming's gunshots, in an instant, all the sorghum stalks and corn stalks in the sheltered position outside Ao Zipo Village were pushed away, revealing rows of black muzzles, and gunshots like bursting beans rang out.
Da da da, bang bang, the Type 96 machine gun and the German-made barge gun used by the squad and platoon cadres were all spitting tongues of fire. Including the crisp "horn hook" sound emitted by the 38 big cover, it sounded into a piece, and when heard from a distance, it was also a "bang" sound like popping beans in the ears.
The little devil is in front of him, the distance is so close, the vast majority of the cadres and soldiers of the independent battalion are veterans of the old Red Army who have gone through the Long March and the veterans of the Shaanxi Army, the Northwest Army, the Central Army, and the Sichuan Army who have been trained on the battlefield of the civil war.
The Type 96 machine gun was roaring, the German-made 20-round barge gun was sweeping wildly on the fan surface, the 38 big cover was accurate, the "horn hook" and "horn hook" sounded together, and the bullets "chirped" and swept towards the devil's marching team like a wind.
Eighteen Type 96 light machine guns, each magazine is 30 rounds, one round of strafing, that is, 540 rounds, two rounds of strafing, that is, 1080 rounds, three rounds of strafing is 1620 rounds, plus more than a dozen barge guns, more than 100 38 big cover shots, the little devil walking in front of the ambush position, if there are still alive, it is really a fluke!
Eighteen machine guns fired at the same time, like eighteen tongues of fire rolling towards the devil's marching team, wantonly harvesting the lives of the little devils!
It's a pity that it's dusk at four o'clock and almost five o'clock, and if it's night, this kind of battle scene will be very spectacular!
With the sound of gunfire, the little devils who are marching can naturally lie down and lie down, and those pack horses carrying supplies, pulling carts, and pulling infantry cannons are different, the first time they are frightened, the first time they run wildly, so that those little devils who are killed and injured have to be trampled by horses' hooves and crushed by rubber-tyred carts!
Of course, these pack horses could not go crazy for a long time, and at this time in the battle, the bullets of the soldiers also shot at the crazy pack horses, and these animals serving the Japanese army also had to fall to the ground.
Because there are so many veterans of the National* Army who have been rescued, there is no shortage of machine gunners among them, and the platoon commanders do not have to shoot machine guns themselves.
Qiu Wei, the leader of the platoon, put the 38 big cover on the trench, and the 20-round German-made barge gun in his hand waved forward, "Dada", and 20 bullets were fired in succession, and swept out in a fan.
After a shuttle, Qiu Wei quickly inserted the shell gun into the holster, picked up the 38 big cover, closed his left eye and opened his right eye, and with a slight aim, he beat a ghost soldier who had just reacted and was about to lie down!
A good Qiu Wei, the rise of the fight, shouting while fighting: "Fight!" Give Lao Tzu a hard beating! Not a single devil can be sent back to Little Japan alive! ”
In fact, there is no need for Qiu Wei to shout, the fighters are very happy. Think about it, such an arrogant little devil was sent to his eyes, sent to his own gun, the devil is fish and meat, I am a sword, will the soldiers not be happy!
The little devil is on the march, the light machine gun and rifle are all on his shoulder, the safety has not been opened, the grenadier is in his hand, the heavy machine gun is carried on the shoulders of the fourth brother soldier, and the Type 92 infantry gun is dragged by pack horses, completely defenseless, as if he is not armed at all.
Wang Meng, the leader of the third platoon, like Qiu Wei, first swept a shuttle with a shell gun, and then picked up his rifle and shot. The backbone of the old Red Army like them, although their marksmanship cannot be compared with the level of Xiao Siming, at such a distance, they are also shot, and the guns are down. It's just that it doesn't necessarily hit the devil in the head!
Wang Meng's temperament is the same as his name, he is very fierce, he doesn't want to die when he fights, he just shot two bullets with the 38 big cover, and when he saw that there was no devil standing on the highway in front of him, he straightened up and jumped out of the trench, and roared, "Rush, make up the gun and knife for the devil, and take back the heavy machine gun to Lao Tzu!" ”
The soldiers of the third platoon all jumped out of the trench at once, screamed, rushed onto the road, and went to replenish the guns and knives of the little devil who had been defeated!
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the first, second, and fourth platoons all jumped out of the trenches and threw themselves on the road. The machine guns deployed at the north and south ends of the town began to turn and shoot at the Devil Advance Guard Squadron to the south and the Devil follow-up troops to the north to cover the soldiers' charge!
Xiao Siming likes to use the 38 big cover, because this gun has a long range and high accuracy, which is suitable for shooters like Xiao Siming with accurate marksmanship.
As soon as the shot was fired, Xiao Siming found his senses, returned the shell, pushed the bullet and loaded it, and in one go, the second bullet was immediately fired, sending the squadron leader of the devil machine gun squadron back to his grandmother's house!
By the time he fired the third shot, there was already gunfire on the position, and the little devils fell down to the outside of the road in rows under the heavy fire, and it was difficult to find the devil officers again.
Xiao Siming stopped shooting, his eyes swept on the road, trying to see if there were any unkilled little devils hiding in the pile of dead people and shooting, so that he could shoot him.
When Wang Meng, the commander of the third platoon, took the lead in rushing to the highway with the whole platoon, Xiao Siming immediately ordered the artillery platoon to prepare for the shelling!
The grenadiers on the high ground behind the village were all disguished and propped up, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed diagonally at the devil squadron, which was located 500 meters behind the Japanese transport team.
It is said that the battle is not over, the avant-garde squadron of the devils will turn around and attack when they hear the gunshots, and the follow-up troops will immediately run forward and carry out the attack.
This is what makes Xiao Siming different, what he wants is to quickly and completely solve the enemy in front of him with lightning speed, capture the Japanese army's heavy machine guns and infantry guns, and then meet the Japanese army from the north and south.
With the twelve heavy machine guns and two infantry guns of the Japanese army, the Japanese army still has an advantage in terms of strength, but in terms of firepower, the independent battalion has an advantage. If the little devils don't know whether to live or die and rush to attack, I'm afraid they will all have to die here!
The reason why he dared to fight like this was because Xiao Siming had eighteen grenadiers and eighteen Type 96 light machine guns, which could completely stop the devil's counterattack!
The twelve heavy machine guns and two infantry guns that fell to the ground on the road!
There is no way, our army is short of guns and artillery, at first glance, when he saw twelve heavy machine guns and two infantry guns in front of him, Xiao Siming must have commanded the troops to rush up and grab them back as soon as possible!
This is not a brute force, the gap between the devil's avant-garde squadron and the squadron behind him and the devil's infantry squadron, machine gun squadron, artillery squadron, and transport squad in front of him is 500 meters, separated by a mile, is the opportunity coming!
Sure enough, when I heard the gunshots and found that the troops in front were ambushed, the third devil infantry squadron, which was walking 500 meters behind the transport team, went crazy! I saw that the leader of the devil squadron brushed the ground and pulled out the command knife and ordered the attack!
It was good that the devils did not attack quickly, and as soon as they attacked, they rushed into the range of the artillery platoon grenadiers and the machine guns deployed at the northern end of the village. Just listen to the sound of "sun", a grenade fell from the sky, "boom", and exploded 20 meters away from the roadside!
The squadron leader of the devil had rich combat experience, and as soon as he heard it, he knew that it was the Type 89 grenadier produced by the Japanese Empire that was being test-fired, and he immediately ordered the troops to stop the attack, quickly retreat, lie down and hide, and avoid artillery fire.
Sure enough, after the artillery platoon tested the firing, it quickly adjusted the coordinates of the shelling, and immediately after, there was a salvo!
Eighteen grenades, equivalent to eighteen grenades, fell from the top of the head and exploded, and the momentum was also quite amazing. In particular, the grenades made by the Empire of Japan have a large lethal surface, and the casualties caused by this explosion on the top of the little devil's head can be imagined!
This is the first battle of the artillery platoon, and it is also the first time they have used grenadiers to shell with live ammunition, and it is impossible to hit too accurately, just this, the shock to the little devil is already very big!
When the little devil was ambushed in Shangshe this morning, although the strength of the three detachments was much more than that of the independent battalion, where did they have such firepower as the independent battalion?
The leader of the devil squadron immediately understood in his heart that the ambush he encountered now was a hundred times more dangerous than the ambush he received in the morning, and if he was not careful, his squadron might follow in the footsteps of the squadron in front of him, and the jade would be shattered here.
The voice of the devil squadron leader who gave the order to retreat turned into a crying voice, shouting all about retreating, retreating, retreating quickly!
The artillery platoon's shelling of the Devil's follow-up troops was only two salvos, and it turned to the avant-garde units that shelled the Devil's troops. There was no way, the follow-up troops of the devils were instigated and withdrawn, but the squadron of the devil's avant-garde didn't know what was powerful, and turned around and pounced on the battlefield.
It was in the fierce battle that the little devils were rushing towards the battlefield, so the soldiers who rushed to the highway did not go back to clean the battlefield at all, and even spared stabbing with bayonets, and shot directly at the devils who fell to the ground, regardless of whether those devils were dead or alive.
The worst thing was the wounded soldiers of the devil lying in the cart, as soon as the pack horse was killed in a frenzy, they were thrown to the ground from the cart, seeing that the Chinese army in ambush did not want to be taken prisoner at all, these wounded soldiers simply committed suicide with grenades.
By the time the fighters returned to their positions with heavy machine guns, light machine guns, and infantry guns, the artillery platoon had already completed three salvos of fire at the Devil's Advance Guard squadron.
With the heavy machine gun, Xiao Siming suddenly became arrogant, and immediately ordered the heavy machine gun to be mounted on the positions at both ends of the village, and he personally went to tinker for a while, and shot at the Japanese army!
What was surprising was that as soon as the Type 92 heavy machine gun fired, the Japanese army's bugle sounded, and it turned out to be an order to retreat!
Wang Lushui was originally worried about the little devil attacking from both sides, but now that the little devil is about to retreat, Wang Lushui's worries have come to naught, and he is thinking about how to pursue in order to make the little devil die more!
