Chapter 243: The War of the Little Soldiers (Part I)
About Jerry? Yang is a captain company commander, the whole company of more than 180 people, ordered to defend a kilometer of defense line, basically up to one meter there is one person to defend, meet with other troops, Piper's company defense density is very high, because Piper's position is due east, just the key position of the Polish army's assault. The fire of their company consisted of 12 machine guns, two 37-mm anti-tank guns, 12 50-mm mortars.
The machine gun fire was scattered by Piper, and all the mortars were concentrated in the second line of trenches, which provided fierce low-power artillery fire support for their own infantry at that time, the power of a 50mm mortar was only equivalent to a grenade, but for the charging infantry, the power was absolutely enough, if 12 mortars were fired together, at least they could attack the enemy within 200 square meters at the same time.
"Company commander, the enemy is coming, there are a lot."
The observer was visibly nervous, and his voice was a little out of shape.
"Don't panic, put the enemy two hundred meters before fighting."
"Put the enemy two hundred meters."
The black pressure of the Polish army bent on the waist, ran quickly with a gun, and charged towards Jerry's position, the number of people was too many, and the Polish army was a regimental charge as soon as it came up, because the commander of the Polish army also knew that there was not much time left for them, after the plane returned, it would take two or three hours to refuel and reload, and in these two hours it was necessary to break through the German defense line, and then get entangled with the German army, then the German planes would have no way to bomb, which was also the only correct way for the Polish army.
"Four hundred meters, three hundred meters...... Boom ......"
Plumes of smoke rose from the German positions, and violent explosions raged, and the sudden artillery bombardment blinded the Germans at that time, but fortunately the Polish troops also used mortars, and the caliber was not very large. About 81 mortars, more powerful than Jerry their 50 mortars.
The sudden artillery bombardment caused Jerry's company to lose more than a dozen people in an instant. More than two dozen people were wounded, and the caliber of the 81 mortar is considered a large caliber. And it's a curve shot, and it does great damage to the soldiers in the trenches.
"Rush!! Kill!! ……”
Three hundred meters away, the Polish army began to charge frantically, the Polish mortars at this time did not stop firing, they were not afraid of hurting their own people, what they planned was to use the numerical advantage and the German army to fight for personnel attrition, obviously a company of Jerry could not consume a regiment of the Polish army.
"Artillery fire rapidly, target: two hundred meters in front of our position, hurry up...... Boom ......"
Jerry holds the binoculars as he holds it. A microphone holding a walkie-talkie, half of his head sticking out of the trench, while observing the battlefield situation, while commanding, to a bit of a general's style.
The Polish infantrymen who were bombarded by the 50-mm mortars turned on their backs, and when the "bombardment" went down, two or three Polish infantry were missing arms and legs, and those who did not die screamed, and those who died were laid to rest in peace, and there was no sound again.
"Boom...... Boom ......"
The 81 mortars, hidden in the distance, of the Polish army, were also violently bombarding the German positions. If the German soldier was unlucky, an 81 mortar landed in the trench and exploded around him. With a loud "boom", the German soldier was immediately torn into several pieces, and then thrown out of the trench by a violent explosion.
"Boom...... Boom ......"
The two sides are desperately shelling with mortars, and human lives here are like ants, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye. The Polish infantry was charging, uncovered, and the German mortars, although only 50 millimeters, were also very inflicted, and the Polish mortars were of a large caliber. But the Germans had the cover of the trenches, and the density of people in the trenches was small. There are many fewer casualties, and there are fewer German soldiers!!
After a few minutes of heavy shelling, more than a dozen brothers of the Germans were killed. The Polish army had already rushed to a distance of two hundred meters.
"All shot...... Da Da ...... Da Da ...... Ahh!!hhhh ……”
All kinds of bullets shuttled through the air, shooting into the human body and bringing bursts of blood mist, and the screams of the Polish soldiers who were shot could already be clearly heard.
"Ahhh …… Come on...... Polish chop ...... Da Da ......"
"Ahhh!!h …… Come on!!! …… For the sake of the motherland, kill the German devils...... Touch...... Da Da ......"
The Polish army's support machine guns are also "clicking...... Da Da ......" suppressed the shooting, but the rifle in the hands of the Polish soldier was tragic, a shot, need to be retracted from the shell and loaded, and then aim for the final shot, and by the time he finished this set of actions, he had already been beaten into a sieve by the German submachine guns and machine guns.
The numerical superiority of the Polish army and the suppression of mortars made Jerry's casualties also increase greatly, and the preliminary estimate was not less than 40 percent, and the casualties reached 20 percent and did not collapse The troops were considered elite. The Germans were already 40 percent casualties, and they were still fighting desperately, if Jerry had arranged the first line of mortars, Jerry's company, which had lost artillery, would have been drowned by the Polish army at this time, and it seemed that this German captain named Jerry was good.
"Fifty meters, grenade ......"
With Jerry's loud roar, countless grenades were thrown at the prostrate Polish troops in the German position like rain, and there was a German soldier who shouted while throwing grenades:
"Polish offal, how about eating a couple of grandpa's wooden-handled grenades, one, two, three...... Boom ......"
An 81 mm mortar shell exploded two meters away from the German soldier, and the huge body of the German soldier was blown over two meters away by the explosion, and one of his arms was gone, and the German soldier who was in a short coma felt that something was wrong with his body, and hurriedly groped with his hands, only to find that his arm was blown off, and other places were also scarred.
"Ah!! …… Polish chop also came by grandfather's hand. ”
The German soldier trembled, staggered to his feet, picked up another grenade, put the pull ring on the middle finger of his right hand, and with a wave of his hand, the grenade flew out towards the Polish army, "Boom", "Ah! There was a scream and a Polish soldier was lifted nearly a meter high by a grenade and smashed to the ground.
"Five...... Twelve...... Flutter ......"
A criminal bullet struck the German soldier in the chest, and before he died, the German threw the grenade out of the middle.
A regiment of Polish troops was finally repulsed by one of Jerry's companies, but when Jerry patrolled the trenches and counted the numbers, Jerry cried.
"Start counting."
“1,2,3…… 28,29,…… 35)
Judging from the corpses in front of the position, the number of dead in the Polish army will not be less than five or six hundred, but Jerry's company is full of more than 180 brothers, and now there are only 35 people left with the wounded.
As the company commander, Jerry couldn't cry loudly, so he could only say loudly with tears in his eyes: (To be continued) R580
