Chapter 737: Eat Them

Every move of the Japanese army did not escape the eyes of the guard commander. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As soon as he saw that the Japanese troops were showing signs of massing, the regimental commander ordered the artillery to draw out two mortar batteries and watch them gather their troops to fight.

Wherever there are many devils gathered, the shells with screaming sounds will be smashed in whichever direction.

Taking advantage of this time, the guard regiment continued to approach the devil.

Light and heavy machine guns, grenades, rifles, all of them fired ammunition at the devil's body.

The devil soldiers who were blown up into chaos were not the opponents of the Liaodong Army at all.

Although they were desperately counterattacking, because the troops were blown up, these counterattacks were very disorganized, except for some sporadic casualties to the guard regiment, they basically could not stop the pace of the guard regiment's attack.

"Yaga! The Liaodong Army attacked too fiercely, and the troops couldn't stop it at all! Seeing that the surrounding troops blocking the Liaodong Army continued to retreat, and soon, there were less than two thousand people left in the wing to be compressed onto the official road, and the chief of staff hurriedly reported to the wing commander.

The frowning captain reacted immediately.

"Order the heavy machine gun squadrons of the major brigades to immediately move to the periphery, and the light machine guns and grenadiers will cooperate to block the attack of the Liaodong Army behind the palace. The rest of the troops, in squadrons, broke through and retreated to the rear. ”

After the order was given, the chaotic situation improved a lot.

As soon as dozens of light and heavy guns were fired, the pace of the attack of the guard regiment was stopped.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the devil quickly attacked. More than 100 people, armed with rifles, roared and rushed to the defense line of the Liaodong Army.

"The little devil has become a turtle in the urn, tell the brothers, fight steadily, don't be in a hurry, don't let the little devil escape through the loophole!" After seeing the devil's every move, the regiment commander decisively ordered.

"Artillery, draw out three companies to blow up the devil's light and heavy machine guns, cover the attack of the troops, and further compress the encirclement."

Then two companies were drawn to support the eighth and ninth companies behind. The devils are rushing in that direction, and they definitely want to break through from the direction of the two companies. ”

"There are two mortar companies left, continue to bombard the devil infantry for me, and bomb wherever there are more people. The more chaotic the devils, the easier it will be for us to fight, and the fewer casualties will be among the troops. ”

As soon as the guard regiment changed its fighting style, the light and heavy machine guns that the captain of the devil wing had high hopes for were hit by shells one after another, and then blown into scrap metal.

In addition, the guard regiment is also equipped with a large number of light and heavy machine guns, staring at the devil's light and heavy machine guns to counterattack.

In less than a minute, the devil's blocking fire was suppressed.

The regiment of guards, who had just stopped, rushed at the devils again with rifles, and when they got closer, they threw grenades at them.

After a series of violent explosions, dozens of light and heavy machine guns were all silent. Of the more than 200 devils who were waiting for these light and heavy machine guns, except for a few who slipped away in the explosion, all the rest were blown up in the machine gun position, and they all died.

The devils who rushed to the ** two companies one after another, and before they approached the two companies, a sudden burst of artillery fire killed and injured more than thirty percent of their troops.

In the ensuing attack, most of the machine guns they were equipped with were moved to the rear of the hall, and the few light machine guns that were there were targeted by the heavy machine guns of the two companies as soon as they came out. The Heavy didn't even shoot a single bullet before the heavy machine gun knocked them over, and the other Heavy was just about to take over the machine gun and continue firing, when the heavy machine gun fired a thick bullet that knocked them into a hornet's nest.

Soon, several corpses fell around several light machine guns.

No matter how stupid the remaining devils are, they know that the light machine gun is targeted by the devils, and if they rush up, they will be sent to death. Therefore, no matter how threatening the officers around them were, they would rather rush forward with their rifles than touch the machine guns.

As soon as the light machine guns were dumbfounded, the devils could only rely on the infantry and rush forward without fear of death.

Two companies of six light machine guns and more than 300 rifles fired bullets at the devils with impunity.

The devils who rush forward desperately will fall a large number of soldiers every time they take a step forward.

In the end, the two squadrons that rushed to the front did not even rush to the first fifty meters before they all fell on the way to the breakout.

"Wing Commander, without fire cover, the infantry can't rush out at all!" The frowning chief of staff immediately reminded the wing commander beside him.

At this time, the entire wing was still less than 1,500 people.

Looking at the Liaodong Army that was constantly pressing around, and then seeing the soldiers around him constantly dying in the explosion of shells, the desperate face of the wing commander immediately became gloomy.

"Yaga! Looking at the posture of the Liaodong Army, it must want to annihilate us! Since there is no hope of breaking through, then we will stay and fight a decisive battle with the Liaodong Army, and destroy as many Liaodong Army as possible before we die in battle......"

After speaking, the wing commander ordered in a heavy tone: "Order the troops, quickly move closer to me, and build a circular defensive position with me as the center." Relying on the position to hold on, a large number of kills and wounds of the Liaodong Army, and strive to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements. ”

Compared with taking the initiative to attack, the casualties that defense can bring to the Liaodong Army will definitely be greater.

Therefore, the wing commander gave the order, and the captain and squadron leader, who knew this truth, began to command their subordinates to dig trenches and prepare to defend to the death.

The head of the guard also saw this scene, frowned again and said, "You must not let the devil dig into a trench." They are hiding in the trenches, we will have a lot more difficult fights, and the casualties will be greatly increased! ”

"Artillery, concentrate artillery fire, and hit me hard at the devils digging trenches!"

"Infantry, keep rushing forward and speed up the attack. As long as the devils don't surrender, they will beat me hard, and they must not be allowed to dig out the trenches and hide in the trenches to fight us. ”

The devil also knows that if there are trenches, the troops can hold out longer, and they can have more chances to save their lives.

Although the whistling shells continued to explode around them, and then blew up one after another former comrades into corpses. The living devils still desperately wielded sapper shovels, deepening and widening the trenches under their feet.

More than 2,000 infantry of the guard regiment were also desperate at this time, and under the cover of machine-gun fire, they rushed forward with no life.

Although the devils arranged several squadrons to block the attack in front, slowing down the attack of the guard regiment and buying time for the troops digging trenches behind.

But as soon as the blocking devil fires, a dense rain of bullets can be set off immediately.

While people in the guard regiment were constantly knocked down on the offensive road, several squadrons of devil soldiers were also constantly hit by bullets, and then lay on the ground with a whimper and turned into corpses.

Four or five minutes later, the guard regiment managed to break through the devil's line of defense and kill the ring defense position they were building.

The devil who was digging the trench had to drop his sapper shovel and shoot on the ground with his rifle on the ground in the trench that had not yet taken shape.

The heavy machine guns equipped with the guard regiment immediately suppressed the fire, and the artillerymen who operated the mortars also fired shells at the devil as fast as they could.

In the blink of an eye, the devil lying in the trench was so crushed that he couldn't lift his head, so he could only raise the rifle above his head with both hands, and then blindly shoot at the guard regiment. (To be continued.) )
