Section 68 The 108th Division's First Experience on the Battlefield (4)
The Chinese army quickly launched an operation, still according to Dai Xiaodian's prior guidance, and launched a sniper attack on the attacking Japanese army in the form of a small force and a rapid shift of positions. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 But the name of sniper does not really require a lot of effort to keep it out of the defensive line, on the contrary, the real battle is to wait for the Japanese to break through their own line of fire and go deep into the trenches!
According to Dai Xiaodian's explanation, his so-called tactics can be explained clearly in one sentence: put the devils in, get as close as possible, and then use the absolute advantage of numbers to fight them to death!
The execution power of the new second brigade is unparalleled in the group army, Lin Ning put away the bracket of the light machine gun, held it in his hand, turned around and ran: "Brothers, retreat!" ”
The soldiers of the two squads followed behind the battalion commander and retreated like a low tide, and directly opposite them were the other two squads led by Meng Xiaochun, who also quickly withdrew after receiving the order; Without these two Chinese troops, who were sniping with cold guns at all times, the squadrons of Miura and Sugamasa suddenly increased their marching speed, and saw that the crushed and messy ridge was not far away, and then a burst of gunfire rang out!
The Japanese skillfully lay down, and at the same time used rifles to shoot accurately, their number far exceeded the enemy, after a row of guns, the Chinese army behind the position sounded a hasty shout, although Miura did not understand, but as long as he heard the other party's panicked tone, you can judge that the enemy on the opposite side has been frightened like a quail in the cold winter!
"Attack!" Miura shouted arrogantly, and the first one got up on the spot, holding a war knife, and rushed over; Behind him, more than three hundred warriors swarmed up.
Miura shouted as he ran: "1st and 2nd Infantry Squads, full speed ahead!" Machine gun crew, battlefield support! ”
"Hah!" Miura gave the order of the soldier Xi Zhi, and with a shout, the speed of the vanguard troops accelerated a little, holding a rifle, crossing the towering dirt slope like a cheetah, and suddenly exclaimed: "Oops! Then he fell down with a thud.
Miura and Suga were taken aback, as commanders, they didn't care about the possible danger at all, and rushed up the gentle slope in three steps and two steps, and were immediately stunned: under their feet were wide trenches beyond the norm, and the seats of one of their tank squadrons had become scrap metal, and there were even three or two vehicles that could not even be seen in their original faces, and the smoke that slowly rose was mixed with a choking smell of burning, and the smell was disgusting!
Around the tank, there were no less than 150 corpses of Chinese soldiers, and a cursory look at the past showed that almost every corpse had no less than two clear bullet holes!
The infantry soldiers who had just rushed over fell because they couldn't stop the car, and the trench was too wide to cross it, causing them to fall and roll all over the ground.
Miura and Kan Chang stumbled and almost fell, but fortunately, the two stopped the momentum, bent their legs, and jumped into the trench; Now you can take a closer look. "The people of China are incompetent and shameless!" Kan Chang scolded scolded: "You actually use such a childlike trick? ”
Miura didn't care about scolding the street, he dragged the fallen soldier up one by one, and pushed it on his shoulder: "Do a good defense, the people of China will not just let us occupy the position, ready to fight!" ”
More soldiers got up from the ground, and the follow-up soldiers also slid into the tunnel, and one soldier looked left and right blankly, stretched out his arms, and gestured horizontally: "Hmm, it's really wide?" ”
"Idiot, shut up!" A guy with a full beard gave him a vicious kick and kicked him on the spot! After getting up, don't say angry, question, or even dare not make eye contact, but pout your ass and take the initiative to apologize to the other party: "I'm sorry, senior!" ”
The guy who kicked people was in his thirties, looking at the outfit was just an ordinary private, but his attitude was very arrogant, he didn't pay attention to the young soldier at all, and raised his chin provocatively to a military cao next to him, and the military Cao's mouth squirmed a few times, and he turned his head first: "Kawakami-kun," Miura was too lazy to manage these fights under his subordinates, he knew that this bearded man surnamed Sunata, was a native of Asakusa, before joining the army, he was the hooligan leader of a local gang, and unlike those young people who are dedicated to serving the imperial country and His Majesty the Emperor, Hisakata has considerable social experience, Ruthless and cruel. Although he did not have any military rank, in the squad to which he belonged, from the squad leader to the ordinary soldiers, he was humiliated by him - in normal times, even his foot washing water was given to him by the squad leader Takakura.
Miura called the name of the machine gun squad leader and said, "You and your team organize machine gun fire. Takakura-kun, Asahoka-kun, the two of you and Takeshita-kun's grenadier team cooperate to break through the second line of defense of the Chinese army; Also, the signal corps? Inform Your Excellency Takei and ask him to immediately arrange for the engineer troops to press and dig trenches to facilitate the advance of the tank troops! “
"Yes." In a short time, the forces of the three groups were assembled, and they could set off at once after waiting for the commander's order.
The other Sugachang squadron, also under the arrangement of the squadron leader, made arrangements, and friendly frontal attacks are different, Sugachang's squadron is advancing from the two flanks of the tunnel, which is also a common tactic of the Japanese army, in terms of importance, Miura's troops are responsible for containing the enemy's feint troops, Sugachang is subordinate is the main attack.
The Japanese army was preparing for battle, and Suga's two combat teams were about to advance, when a bullet suddenly flew from the side of the tunnel, killing a soldier on the spot, and the Japanese army was in a commotion, and several people quickly threw Miura and Sugamasa to the ground: "Protect the chief!" ”
The gunshots rang out, Miura pushed away the soldiers on his body, and quickly got up: "What's the matter?" Have the people of China already attacked here? After speaking, without waiting for anyone to answer, he shouted: "Destroy them on the spot!" ”
The Japanese army made a noise, and the two battle groups of Takakura and Asakura quickly climbed to the position, and under the cover of two light machine guns in the rear, they began a tentative attack on the Chinese position more than ten meters away. After marching three to five meters, there was a loud burst of gunfire in the frontal position and in the trenches on both sides! Asakura was the first to lie down, and the Czech-style, Zhongcheng, and Hanyang-made bullets almost grazed his scalp, frightening him to blow up a cold sweat all over his body! Not to mention his tactical group, it was the light machine gun fire point in the rear, which also gave the fierce bullets so much that he couldn't raise his head.
"Retreat, retreat!" Asakura's angry roar sounded on the left and right of the position, prostrate, moving his body backwards, and halfway through, he didn't forget to reach out and grab the ankle of a warrior, pulling him to the ground: "Idiot, don't you want to die?" ”
"Ahh The little soldier turned pale with nervousness, and he didn't forget to thank him: "Thank you...... Predecessor! ”
"Quick, back off, back off!" Although Asakura was the first to start retreating, he was the last to enter the trenches, and seeing that the surviving subordinates had retreated to a safe area, he turned over on the spot and landed steadily in the trenches.
Such casualties are not very serious, but Miura was furious: "What's the matter? Asakura? ”
"The resistance of the Shina people is very fierce, squadron leader, are you asking Iwase-kun to provide fire support?"
"Idiot! Can't you see it yet? It is only less than 15 meters away from the Chinese army, which is already much lower than the minimum safe distance, so how can you ask for artillery support? ”
"Then, is it necessary to sacrifice more to pass?"
"Of course not." Kan Chang said: "Immediately arrange people, bulldoze this trench as much as possible, and then order the tanks and tanks to step forward again, I don't believe it, I can't solve the enemy in front of me!" ”
"Act now!" Miura gave the order next to him, and the Japanese troops moved when they heard the sound, put down their machine rifles, took out their sapper shovels, and began to laboriously dig trenches, called digging, which was actually just a section of the mud wall with a straight front, which could provide the tank with a room for impact, so in terms of operation, it would not be delayed for a long time.
This side was digging, and the rear troops gradually arrived, led by Captain Takei, who led two of the other three squadrons to rush up, and Takei stepped into the trench as soon as he stepped into the trench, and he was stunned: "What's going on?" What is this doing? ”
Miura and Suga Masamu stood upright, and explained the situation in a few words, Takei frowned and listened, and said, "Are you confused? What is this place? There was not even a place behind him for the troops to maneuver, so what if the Chinese army launched an attack at this time? ”
"Captain, the quality of our soldiers far exceeds that of the Chinese army, the only thing they can do is passive resistance, if you dare to launch a counterattack, please forgive me for not agreeing."
"According to common sense, or so, but don't forget, the two of you only have two squadrons, and how many people are there? Once we attack at the cost of casualties, how much do you think our side will pay? Takei coldly refuted Miura and said: "Kan Masa-kun's squadron continues to be responsible for digging trenches according to the deployment, and the other squadrons of Miura-kun, Nagaoka-kun and Yano-kun will launch attack operations from the front and both flanks, and they must take the third line of defense of the Chinese army on the opposite side in the shortest possible time!" ”
"Yes!" The three men took the order and left, and after a while, the three Japanese squadrons regrouped and began to attack the Chinese defense line. The operation went smoothly and unexpectedly, and before entering the third line of defense, there was no resistance at all, Miura secretly wondered, but Nagaoka and Yano were happy in their hearts, and kept urging the troops to speed up.
Seeing that the fourth line of defense of the Chinese army is not far away, beyond here, is the enemy's second trench, once it occupies it, relying on its own powerful firepower and accurate shooting, the Chinese army will have to pay thousands of times the casualties if they want to force themselves out!
