Chapter 310: Unbearable Recruits

Several Japanese heralds, riding ponies, hurriedly left the checkpoint. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The Japanese position had been overwhelmed by the fire of twelve mountain artillery.

The Japanese soldiers hiding in ordinary fortifications were able to avoid the shells that smashed outside the fortifications. However, as soon as a shell lands in a trench, it can blow up a cloud of minced flesh and a rain of blood.

What's more, as the shelling continued, the consumption of only reinforcing with logs slowly became a little unable to withstand the attack, and began to be trampled in pieces, with huge gaps and craters appearing.

As for the Japanese troops hiding in the trenches, as soon as the trenches where they were hiding were blown up, they were completely exposed to the artillery fire of the Liaodong Army. Subsequently, without incident, it was torn to pieces by the air wave and shell fragments generated by the explosion of the shell.

Five minutes, ten minutes, fifteen minutes......

In order to create a false impression for the Japanese army that the Liaodong Army was determined to take this checkpoint.

Twelve mountain artillery shelled for twenty minutes before stopping.

At this time, the thick smoke that shrouded the Japanese position still did not dissipate, but the Japanese commander had already learned about the casualties of the troops from the mouth of the squad leader under his command.

Two infantry squadrons, half a heavy machine gun squadron, more than 400 people, and now there are not even 200 people who can still move.

What's more, there were more than a dozen heavy machine guns in the heavy machine gun squadron, and only ten of them, which were lucky enough not to be blown up by shells.

"Eight Geya Road, the artillery fire of the Liaodong Army is too strong...... "The deputy captain who led the team couldn't help but scold.

He heard that the heavy machine guns on the position of the Liaodong Army a few hundred meters away had been fired, and the dense heavy machine gun bullets kept flying over his head, whizzing and swishing. The vice-captain's face immediately turned pale.

"Bageya Road, the Liaodong Army has begun to attack......"

"We only have less than one squadron left, and we will definitely not be able to stop the attack of the Liaodong Army...... Quick, ask the captain for help immediately, I want reinforcements from at least one squadron......"

As soon as the herald who was following him left, the deputy captain ordered the two squadron leaders beside him......

"What are you doing? Immediately organize troops to counterattack...... Heavy machine gun fire was suppressed, and the riflemen aimed and fired again, killing and wounding a large number of attacking troops of the Liaodong Army. Be sure to repel the enemy. Hold out until reinforcements come. ”

When the Japanese army was quickly ready for battle in the smoke of gunpowder.

The strength of a company of the Liaodong Army had already rushed out of the trenches, rifles in hand, and rushed towards the Japanese positions step by step.

"Brothers. Give me a clever point, the Japanese army's marksmanship is not tolerable......" The company commander shouted to his subordinates, who were half of the recruits around him, while holding the Mauser pistol and attacking forward.

"The machine gunners are ready to fight at any time, and the Japanese riflemen will suppress my fire as soon as they fire, and kill as many of their troops as possible......"

"Platoon leaders of each squad. are optimistic about their subordinates, ready to lie down and hide at any time, don't let the stupidity hit the muzzle of the devil's gun...... After the battle, I will punish whoever has suffered heavy casualties. ”

When the Liaodong Army rushed to 150 meters, the smoke of gunpowder that shrouded the Japanese position finally dissipated.

At the same time that the Liaodong Army saw the Japanese army, the Japanese army also saw the Liaodong Army.

At this time, even though the distance between the two armies was one hundred and fifty meters, the Japanese with superb marksmanship still opened fire.

......A string of secret gunshots rang out, and five or six Liaodong troops who rushed ahead were immediately knocked to the ground.

The Japanese fired at this distance, and they achieved such results. It was obviously unexpected by the Liaodong Army.

But the veteran in the middle of the attacking force, after only a brief shock, subconsciously lay on the ground, and began to fight back with his rifle in hand.

The three machine gunners holding the machine guns also quickly lay down, put the machine guns in front of them, and set fire to the heads of the Japanese soldiers exposed on the position.

As for those recruits, the reaction speed is much slower.

Not only that, but there are many people who are directly on the battlefield because of the sudden blow.

Until the devil rifleman fired a second round of bullets and knocked down five or six of them again. The platoon leader, who was already lying on the ground next to him, shouted to remind them. They just lay on the ground with panicked faces.

"Counterattack, fight back immediately, shoot the devil with a rifle......" Seeing the poor reaction of the recruits, the squad platoon leader shook his head and sighed. He reminded them loudly.

"Are you all lying on the ground waiting to die...... The rifles in your hands are not burning sticks, shoot at once, shoot at the devils......"

"Have you forgotten what I told you? The more scared you are on the battlefield, the faster you will die...... Only by destroying the enemy and defeating the enemy can we live...... Fight back immediately, don't let Lao Zileng wait there to die......"

With a shout and scolding, he was shouted out by the squad leader. The recruit, who was lying on the ground with his head in his hands, finally reacted.

Began to hold his rifle and shoot forward one round of bullets.

However, because of fear and fear, these recruits did not dare to look up when shooting.

After holding the loaded rifle above his head with both hands, regardless of whether the rifle was aimed at the target or not, he subconsciously pulled the trigger and fired the bullet.

At this time, in addition to shaking their heads and sighing with helplessness on their faces again, those squad and platoon leaders could only rely on their own strength to inflict as much damage as possible on the Japanese troops on the position.

At the same time, they also hope that their actions will affect these recruits, so that the recruits can slowly adapt to the battlefield and have the courage to aim at the enemy before shooting.

Because the Japanese army has nearly 200 people, and everyone has accurate marksmanship.

Even though the Liaodong Army had three light machine guns to provide a steady stream of fire support to the infantry, after a minute or two, the Japanese still had the upper hand.

At this time, the commander of the leading company saw that the entire tentative attack had already had the effect of training, and in order to avoid excessive casualties and affect the morale of the troops, he resolutely issued a retreat order.

The Liaodong Army retreated, but the deputy captain of the Japanese army defending the position was not happy at all, and he also showed a complicated expression full of disappointment and worry.

Even though the Liaodong Army left more than a dozen corpses on the battlefield, it lost more than a dozen people itself.

More importantly, if the battlefield confrontation continues, the losses of the Liaodong Army will definitely greatly exceed its own.

However, at this moment, the Liaodong Army retreated.

It can be seen from this that his opponent, the Liaodong Army, has a very experienced commander.

He knows very well where his shortcomings are on the battlefield.

Therefore, for the timely retreat of the attacking troops of the Liaodong Army, the deputy captain of the devil was very disappointed.

As for worry, it's simpler.

According to the Japanese combat method, after a failed round of attack, artillery fire will definitely be used to retaliate for artillery bombardment.

Now, he has no artillery fire, and once the Liaodong Army uses artillery fire again, then he and his subordinates can only pray in the artillery fire.

Because, no matter how strong a person's combat power is, it is not an opponent of steel cannonballs.

At this moment, the deputy captain of the Japanese army was very worried that as soon as the attacking troops of the Liaodong Army withdrew from the battlefield, the artillery would shell themselves.

Thankfully, the artillery blow he feared did not come.

The regiment commander, who had the idea of training, saw that the first company had withdrawn, and without thinking about it, he pushed the second company up. (To be continued.) )
