Wang Quanyou and they blocked three times, delaying the attack speed of the little devils, and achieving the purpose of buying time for the main force of the battalion to build a blocking position!

After seeing through the binoculars that the reconnaissance platoon had successfully withdrawn, Xiao Siming turned his head and said to Chen Desheng, the commander of the guard platoon who was following him: "Let the correspondent go and call the first company commander Qiu Wei and instructor Yuan Gang up!" ”

Qiu Wei and Yuan Gang led a company to hide in Nianzigou Village at the foot of the mountain, and they had to wait for more than ten minutes to get on the battlefield!

Just as they were waiting for Qiu Wei and Yuan Gang, the two Type 92 heavy machine guns in a platoon of the heavy machine gun team that occupied the mountain beam position east of Nianzigou where Xiao Siming, the commander of the third company, Wang Meng, opened fire, and the sound was like the sound of a woodpecker pecking at a tree; Bang, Bang

The Japanese army's Type 92 heavy machine gun is really a good weapon, much better than the old heavy machine gun used by the main force of the Eighth Route Army, with a long range and high accuracy, and it has been changed from a water-cooled type to an air-cooled type, and the barrel that has been red can be replaced at any time!

The biggest advantage of the Type 92 heavy machine gun is the use of optical sighting, the installation of an optical sight, the scale firing range of 2400 meters, the actual firing range reached 4500 meters! In other words, when firing at key targets with a Type 92 heavy machine gun, it is much farther than any sniper rifle at this time!

When such a good weapon is in the hands of a veteran machine gunner, the effect can be imagined!

No, the little devil on the opposite side of the mountain beam, who had just re-entered the reconnaissance platoon and evacuated, was observing everywhere, searching for where the enemy had gone, and he became the target of the heavy machine gun of the Eighth Route Army, and was thrown into a piece!

The devil's artillery position is separated by a mountain beam from the positions of the first platoon of the third company, the fire support platoon, and the first platoon of heavy machine guns, and the artillery can't be hit for a while and a half!

Two heavy machine guns suppressed the little devil who was on the opposite mountain beam!

The terrain of this area is a ditch to a beam, and the ravines are vertical and horizontal. Moreover, from south to north, from west to east, the terrain is gradually raised, and it has become the highest point of the hilly area in this area when it reaches the mountain beam in the northwest of Nianzigou. For this reason, Xiao Siming placed the main position of blocking the attack there, and Zheng Xiuchuan, the deputy battalion commander, led the second company, artillery team, heavy machine gun team, and engineer team to build positions and deploy defenses there.

Now the little devil on the opposite side of the mountain beam is suppressed by two heavy machine guns, and it won't be long before the follow-up troops of the little devil rush up, and they have more heavy machine guns and more infantry guns, so they can suppress the heavy machine guns on the positions of the three companies across the deep ditch. It's just that the opposite mountain beam is lower than this mountain beam, and the little devil mainly has to rely on artillery fire to suppress it, and the heavy machine gun fire effect must be very poor.

After the first company commander Qiu Wei and instructor Yuan Gang came up, they climbed to Xiao Siming's side.

Xiao Siming asked Qiu Wei and Yuan Gang to raise their binoculars to observe the surrounding terrain, and then pointed to the opposite mountain beam and said, "Qiu Wei, Yuan Gang: Did you hear it just now?" When the little devil fired, it was four mountain guns and twelve infantry guns. The devil infantry wing is generally equipped with a mountain artillery squadron directly under the wing, an infantry artillery squadron, plus three brigades of infantry artillery squads, and the number of these cannons is right! After a while, Wang Meng and they retreated after a while of blocking here, and our main blocking position was on the mountain beam northwest of Nianzigou behind us, and I wanted to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army in Nianzigou and force them to retreat! But the little devils' strength is too huge, a whole wing, and when Wang Meng and them withdraw, the mountains are full of little devils, and there are mountain beams to rely on, and ravines to hide, they will not retreat easily! If we want to repel the Japanese army in the shortest possible time and avoid the Japanese army that may come from Shouyang and Pingding from copying our back road, the key lies in you! ”

Qiu Wei and Yuan Gang were about to stand up and salute and shout a report, but Xiao Siming hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold them, and said in a low voice and excitedly: "The mountain artillery has a long range, so you don't need to push the infantry to the front line like the infantry cannon." The Japanese army was arrogant again, and the troops protecting the artillery positions were definitely small units. I want you to blow up the little devil's artillery position! ”

Qiu Wei and Yuan Gang immediately replied, "Yes!" ”

Xiao Siming then ordered: "After you go down, go to the artillery team to convey my order, let the artillery captain Zhao Xiuchuan leave the instructor Li Hubao to command the two infantry guns to fight, Zhao Xiuchuan, deputy captain Liu Li, Zhao Fu are all dispatched, take the rest of the gunners, observers, and loaders to move with you, all change into Japanese military uniforms, go inside along the mill ditch, and then quietly touch the mountain beam, and go around to the north end of the opposite mountain beam that we see now to hide." When Wang Meng and the others withdrew, the little devil occupied this mountain beam and began to storm the position of the second company, and the little devil's artillery would definitely establish a mountain artillery position on the opposite mountain beam. At this time, you disguised the Japanese army, touched down the mountain beam, and gave Lao Tzu the mountain artillery position of the devil, and let Zhao Xiuchuan and them shell the Japanese army with the captured mountain artillery and infantry artillery. When the Japanese come to their senses and turn around to fight for the artillery position, you will block the attack and immediately retreat. Remember to set up the Japanese army's anti-air liaison board, and I will send you two soldiers from the signal and communication squad to confuse the Japanese aircraft with the liaison board and flag language. The key point of this battle is here! As long as you successfully blow up the Japanese artillery position, I estimate that the little devils will not be able to attack for a while, and they will withdraw their troops in disgrace! ”

Qiu Wei asked: "If it is possible, can we capture the Japanese mountain artillery?" ”

Xiao Siming immediately scolded: "Your head was kicked by a donkey?" There are so many devils, and the mountain cannon is so heavy, how can it be captured? If the Japanese planes could not be confused, they would not wait for the Japanese infantry to attack, and the artillery would be diverted. Are those broken cannons precious, or are the lives of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army precious? As long as the Japanese artillery positions are destroyed, the task will be completed, and the company will be crippled and there will be heavy casualties! If the company is gone, I want those mountain breakers to be useful? There are many little devils, and there will be a chance to kill devils and capture cannons in the future! Got it? ”

Qiu Wei and Yuan Gang roared in a low voice: "Understood! ”

Then Yuan Gang asked again: "Battalion commander, after we blew up the artillery, did we still withdraw to Nianzigou?" ”

Xiao Siming replied that he would quickly return the same way and go to reinforce the main position.

The Japanese commander probably never dreamed that Xiao Siming would pull out his teeth in front of the heavy Japanese army and destroy the Japanese army's mountain artillery position!

This is something that only Xiao Siming, who has crossed souls and regards little devils as ants, can do it!

After Qiu Wei and Yuan Gang left, the infantry artillery of the little devil's brigade finally pulled up, and the mountain artillery also began to shell across a mountain beam.

After Wang Meng and the others took up the position, they seized the time and built an anti-cline position on the back of the mountain beam in accordance with the tactics explained by Xiao Siming, and only had time to dig improvised machine gun bunkers, foxholes, and a trench on the front position, but they dug two communication trenches leading to the back of the mountain, so that the troops could retreat to the anti-cline position on the north side of the mountain beam under enemy artillery fire.

Wang Quanyou's reconnaissance platoon really made a great contribution this time, and if they hadn't insisted on blocking the attack, Wang Meng and his team would not have been able to build such a simple fortification.

This area is hilly, the mountains are earth and rocky mountains, and the mountain beams are purely thick soil. If it were replaced by a stone mountain and stone ridge like the one around Niangzi Pass, it would be impossible to build a bunker at all.

The little devil was still on the opposite mountain beam, separated by a ditch, Xiao Siming ordered the troops to withdraw to the anticline position on the back of the mountain beam to hide, let the little devil waste the shells, and leave the observation post on the position to be on guard.

On the slope on the back of the mountain beam, the sapper shovels and pickaxes of the captured Japanese soldiers could be easily dug out similar to the cat's ear holes on the battlefield in later generations, and the soldiers hid in it, which was enough to avoid the Japanese artillery fire.

Not long after Xiao Siming and Wang Meng took the soldiers to hide behind the mountain beam, there was a buzzing sound in the sky, and two Japanese planes flew to the battlefield.

From south to north and from north to south, the devil's plane bombed and strafed the position on the mountain beam several times to confirm that there was no one on the position, and then flapped its wings and flew away.

The devil planes flew away, the artillery stopped shelling, and the infantry swarmed in, some rushing down the main road from the opposite ridge and then attacking the ridge, some climbing along the path, and some climbing the slope with no way out.

After the whistle of the observation post sounded, Xiao Siming and Wang Meng immediately led their troops to the position.

When I went to the position, I saw that the little devil plane helped, and the crater was deeper than the foxholes dug by the soldiers. Coupled with the craters of devil infantry artillery and mountain artillery shells, for a while, the fortifications were actually strengthened!

The commander of the third company, Wang Meng, has a fierce temper and a fierce and tenacious fighting style, but he admires Xiao Siming from the bottom of his heart. Think about it, if it weren't for Xiao Siming's talk about arranging anti-slope positions and building anti-artillery holes, according to the past way of fighting, the troops would have to be nailed to the position like nails when they got to the position. When the little devil attacked, he couldn't even fight with the devil with a bayonet!

Like the current way of fighting, the devils withdraw their troops when they bombard and bombard, and when the devil's infantry comes up, they pull the troops up.

Wang Meng only felt that Xiao Siming was tall, Gao Laozhuang was tall, really high!

Not only Wang Meng thinks Xiao Siming is smart, but there is no cadre in the independent battalion who doesn't think Xiao Siming is smart. Because everyone understands the tactics he talked about, that is, to minimize casualties and destroy the enemy. In war, there are always casualties, but as long as the tactics that can reduce the casualties, needless to say, it is the most brilliant tactic!

As soon as the soldiers took up the position, light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, and rifles were all set up, and with Wang Meng's "type" exit, the bullets were shot like a wind at the little devil who had climbed less than 100 meters away from the position.

When the Type 92 heavy machine gun is erected, it not only has a tripod, but also a protective steel plate to resist bullets. Unless you are hit by a cannonball or grenade grenade from a little devil, it is generally safe.

Bangbangbang, gurgling, horn hook, the gunfire on the position of the Eighth Route Army suddenly exploded, and the little devil who was climbing up the mountain beam suddenly became a leaf in the wind, and began to float and float!
