Chapter 237: Air Raid on Naozhai Mountain
Sun Weiguo's order was quickly conveyed, and Liu Jingnuan's guard company and Chen Yang's supplementary company as the company commander were immediately put into the battle to garrison the regimental headquarters.
At the same time, Sun Weiguo also distributed all the last stocks of the regimental headquarters position, and Liang Tieniu and some personnel of the infantry battalion headquarters formed a machine gun platoon, under the jurisdiction of three Makqin heavy machine guns, responsible for assisting in the garrison of the regimental headquarters position.
These three Makqin heavy machine guns are different from the previous Makqin heavy machine guns, and the weapons that can be the last to be stockpiled by Sun Weiguo on the spot will naturally not be simple.
The Makqin heavy machine gun that Liang Tieniu is currently using is an original German product, and this Makqin heavy machine gun is directly equipped with a 250-round ammunition chain.
On the other hand, the Makqin heavy machine gun equipped with the previous machine gun platoon was all imitated in China, and this imitation of the Makqin heavy machine gun was called the Min 24 heavy machine gun, equipped with a 100-round ammunition chain.
Every time the weapons and ammunition seized by the Independent Regiment, Sun Weiguo had to carefully select them, and he transferred a part of the imported goods from foreign countries to serve as the inventory of the Independent Regiment.
I have to admit that there are all kinds of problems with domestic imitation weapons, on the contrary, the performance of these imported goods is very good.
However, judging from China's current comprehensive capabilities, it is not easy to be able to imitate all kinds of weapons.
Three Maxim heavy machine guns were erected in the bunker of the ring fortification, and the infantry also had a lot of courage when they saw that the Maxim heavy machine guns had sufficient ammunition.
The battalion commander of the infantry battalion, Hong Zhiqiang, and the two deputy battalion commanders, Liang Tieniu and Chen Yang, were all fighting directly on the front line.
Zhang Dajun's reconnaissance platoon had been dispatched by Sun Weiguo, and Sun Weiguo had to keep abreast of the dynamics of the Japanese troops.
The remnant sun is like blood, and the golden light shines on the ground, and the sunlight cannot bring the slightest warmth to people at this time.
The bone-chilling wind of January blew gently, and the dust on the ground flew slightly, and the time had reached 3:50.
The Japanese troops began to move slowly from their starting positions, but at this time six bombers came to the sky over the town of Chengguan.
The bombers flew majestically in the sky, and the two bombers began to stay over the positions of the independent regimental headquarters, and one after another aerial bombs began to fall.
The other four bombers flew towards the Naozhai Mountain position, which was obviously the key target of the Japanese bombers.
A deafening explosion began to sound, and a scorching aura spread over the surface, and a powerful wave of qi could lift people directly away.
The regimental position was full of air waves generated by the explosion of aerial bombs, and even the soldiers hidden in the anti-artillery holes were somewhat affected at this time.
Several of the recruits lying on the ground were motionless, their bodies unscarred, but they showed no signs of life.
If you look closely, you can clearly see that the veterans are all squatting on the ground.
In the face of air raids and artillery bombardment, it is not 100% to save one's life by lying on the ground.
Shells fired from grenadiers and mortars may be life-saving if lying on the ground.
However, when encountering heavy artillery and air raids, sometimes even if you lie on the ground, you will be shattered and die.
The soldiers who were killed by the shock did not have any injuries on the surface, but if the corpse was dissected, it would be found that the internal organs of the body had already been shattered.
When encountering Japanese air raids and heavy artillery attacks, the correct thing to do is to squat on the ground, so that you can save your life.
It's just that after the recruits are faced with air raids and shelling, they are mostly frightened, and no matter how the veterans shout, they will not hear it.
On the Naozhai Mountain position, the battalion commander of the artillery battalion Shi commanded from the top of the mountain, and he held a telescope to observe the movements of the Japanese troops in a roundabout way.
Seeing that the Japanese artillery and infantry were not evacuating from Naozhai Mountain, but wanted to make a detour to the south side of Naozhai Mountain to strike, Shi immediately began to order the artillery company to fight.
TWO ARTILLERY BATTERIES, TWELVE 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS BEGAN TO FIRE ANTI-PERSONNEL GRENADES, AND SHELLS BEGAN TO FALL ON THE MARCHING JAPANESE TROOPS.
With the explosion of anti-personnel grenades, the Japanese roundabout troops suffered considerable losses, which made the commander of the artillery wing, Nobuo Kobayashi, very angry.
However, in the face of the artillery unit of the independent regiment in the Naozhai Mountain position, he did not have the slightest solution.
However, when Nobuo Kobayashi looked at the eastern sky, a grim smile began to appear on his face.
Four bombers began to fly over the Naozhai Mountain position, and one aerial bomb after another began to fall on Naozhai Mountain.
The artillerymen were completely without warning, and when they heard the sound of aerial bombs whistling, they immediately pushed the artillery to hide.
SHI SHOUTED LOUDLY, HIS FACE WAS FULL OF ANXIOUS EXPRESSION, SEEING THAT THE SIX 94-TYPE 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS OF THE SECOND ARTILLERY COMPANY WERE BLOWN UP ON THE SPOT, SHI'S FACE BECAME SOLEMN, AND HE QUICKLY RAN TOWARDS THE ARTILLERY POSITION.
He knew it was dangerous for him to do so, but he didn't have any choice, because these mountain artillery pieces were the last reliance of the independent regiment.
If these mountain guns were completely destroyed, the consequences would be unimaginable, so even if their own lives were in danger, the stones still had to quickly return to the artillery positions.
He was the commander of the artillery battalion, and now that the mountain artillery was in danger of being blown up, he could not ignore it.
The Type 94 mountain gun equipped by the Second Artillery Company is superior to the Type 41 Mountain Gun equipped by the First Artillery Company in terms of range and power.
However, the Type 94 Mountain Cannon has a disadvantage, that is, compared to the Type 94 Mountain Cannon, which can easily push around with two people, the Type 94 Mountain Cannon is more laborious to move.
"Whew...... Boom ......"
An aerial bomb fell on the artillery position, and more than a dozen artillerymen fell in a pool of blood, and the blood stained a Type 94 mountain gun.
These dozen or so artillerymen used their bodies to protect this mountain artillery, and they knew how important this mountain gun was to the independent regiment.
Stone braved the attack of aerial bombs, and he quickly came to the mountain artillery, and several guards assisted Stone to move the mountain cannon quickly.
A part of the infantry also quickly rushed over, and everyone worked together to push this 94-type mountain gun to the anti-artillery hole.
When he came to the anti-artillery hole, the stone was not idle, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and ran outside again.
At this time, the second artillery company still had two Type 94 mountain guns that had not had time to advance into the anti-artillery hole, and Shi wanted to immediately push these two mountain guns into the anti-artillery hole.
It was only when the stone had just run out of the anti-gun hole that an aerial bomb fell in front of the stone.
With the explosion of the aerial bomb, the whole person of the stone was flooded by the air wave, and the blood and water mixed with the broken flesh began to drip on the ground, and the stone did not leave a complete corpse.
"Battalion commander." The artillerymen, who had not yet had time to get out of the vents, shouted, but they would not get any response.
