Chapter 525: Learned a superficial lesson
On a small battlefield, no matter whose every move you make, you can't escape the eyes of the opponent's scouts. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as the Japanese army moved, the Liaodong Army followed suit.
"Commander Huang, Commander Xu, the Japanese army actually attacked us with the offensive method researched by the commander. You should use this offensive method often, is there a specific way to crack it! ”
Huang Zhongxin thought about it and replied: "The best solution is to shell, but obviously we don't have the ability." It would be nice to have a limited mountain artillery that could suppress the scattered heavy machine guns of the Japanese army! ”
"No way!" Wu Xin replied without thinking about it.
"My mission for your two regiments is to crush the Japanese attacking forces on the battlefield and destroy the heavy machine guns that the Japanese provide fire cover. If only one goal is achieved, it will be difficult for the cavalry division to storm the Japanese positions! ”
At this time, Xu Hai also spoke, and said with a firm face: "Please rest assured, Master Wu, we will definitely complete the task!" ”
Wu Xin's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Captain Xu, you have a solution!" ”
Xu Hai pointed to the Japanese attacking troops who were still a few hundred meters away and said, "Look at the Japanese attack formation! They used the tactics we usually use, but they didn't understand them thoroughly, and they only learned a superficial one! ”
"The Heavy was followed by the Rifleman, and there was no alternate Heavy around. Even the riflemen who followed behind were far behind the machine gunners and did not play the role of protecting the machine gunners! “
"As soon as we knock out the Japanese machine gunners who are now holding machine guns, their offensive fire will be interrupted because there are no alternate machine gunners. Even if there is an old Maozi rifleman who continues to attack with a machine gun, the offensive firepower will be much worse than before! ”
In fact, this is not that the Japanese army has not thoroughly understood this tactic, but that the Japanese division commanders simply do not have so many alternate light machine gunners in their hands.
Because the light machine guns had just been equipped, the entire division was equipped with more than 100 light machine guns, and each machine gun trained nearly two machine gun shooters.
In continuous battles, the Japanese lost quite a few machine gunners.
As a result, there was only one machine gunner left for one light machine gun in the Japanese army, and there was no co-machine gunner as a candidate at all.
Of course, in order to maintain the offensive firepower of the machine guns, before the departure of the attacking troops, the division commander also made a special explanation! Once the machine gunner in front is killed, the riflemen who follow behind, even if they have not done much training, must quickly pick up the machine gun and continue to attack forward, ensuring that the light machine gun fire in his hand is continuous.
The division commander did not calculate after a thousand calculations, and the offensive is not the defense.
In defensive battles, put a machine gun on cover, and with a short period of training and familiarization, the average rifleman can handle it.
But the attack did not work, because the machine gun was held in his arms, and if he was not a skilled machine gunner, there was no way to control the machine gun to the target.
Therefore, this attack, which is full of holes, does not need to think about it to know that it will definitely end in failure.
Wu Xin and Huang Zhongxin held binoculars and stared at the Japanese army for half a minute before putting them down.
Then, Huang Zhongxin's eyes also lit up, and he replied to Wu Xin: "Commander Wu, Commander Xu is right, our two regiments definitely have a way to defeat the Japanese attacking troops, and your cavalry is waiting to fight back!" ”
Dozens of heavy machine guns provided fire cover by the Japanese army were set up one by one, and less than 40 mountain field guns were fired.
As soon as the cannon fire rang out, a violent explosion sounded at the Japanese heavy machine gun position.
The smoke from the explosion of dozens of shells covered seven or eight heavy machine guns in an instant.
At this time, the remaining heavy machine guns scattered by the Japanese also fired.
The dense heavy machine gun bullets, layer upon layer, quickly intertwined an impermeable bullet net above the heads of the 2nd and 3rd regiments of the Liaodong Army. The Liaodong Army lying in the trenches, as soon as it raised its head, it would immediately be beaten into a hornet's nest by bullets!
Of course, after all, the Japanese army was still a few hundred meters away, and even if they couldn't lift their heads under pressure, Huang Zhongxin and Xu Hai had nothing to worry about.
When dozens of mountain artillery guns fired shells at the Japanese heavy machine gun positions one after another, the Japanese light machine gunners who rushed to a distance of 200 meters also opened fire.
After nearly 100 light machine guns were fired together, the bullet net that shrouded the heads of the second and third regiments became even denser.
Xu Hai and Huang Zhongxin were also pressed in the trench and couldn't move, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer in front of the battle, the faces of the two people became more and more solemn.
"Commander Huang, we all underestimated the intensity of the Japanese army's firepower. With such fierce firepower, we don't even have a chance to raise our heads! Xu Hai's brows furrowed and said to Huang Zhongxin.
"The firepower is so powerful that I don't even have a chance to raise my head!" Huang Zhongxin replied with a solemn face.
"How are you going to fight?" Xu Hai asked!
Huang Zhongxin thought about it and replied: "There is no other way but to fight desperately with the Japanese army." However, it is necessary to change it temporarily, the heavy machine gun and the light machine gun are separated, the heavy machine gun and the Japanese heavy machine gun are fired, and the light machine gun is used against the Japanese light machine gun! “
"As long as the light machine gunners who are at the forefront of the Japanese army are destroyed, the next battle will be much easier!"
Soon, the heavy machine guns scattered over the positions opened fire!
Dozens of heavy machine guns fired, coupled with shells that fell on their side from time to time, and the remaining heavy machine gun fire of the Japanese army immediately became intermittent.
At this time, the light machine gun also fired!
Although at the moment of firing, many light and heavy machine gunners of the 2nd and 3rd regiments were hit by bullets as soon as they stood up. But as soon as the light and heavy machine guns were fired, the bullets flying above the Liaodong Army's heads became sparse.
The light machine gunners who were at the forefront of the Japanese also began to suffer casualties.
This casualty problem came, and after the riflemen subconsciously picked up the light machine guns and began to shoot, the Japanese offensive firepower was much lower, although there was no change.
Just now, it was still close to the bullets flying above the head of the Liaodong Army, and at this time, many bullets did not know where to fly, and they could not threaten the Liaodong Army on the position at all.
On the position of the 2nd and 3rd regiments, after two full rounds of light and heavy machine gunners, the machine gunners who were at the forefront of the Japanese attacking force also changed almost one round.
Huang Zhongxin, who was guarding the position, saw that the casualties of the troops were reduced all of a sudden, and immediately understood that he and Xu Hai's judgment was correct.
As long as the first wave of light machine gunners of the Japanese army is killed, the remaining alternate machine gunners are not to worry about, and they look completely amateurish.
Judging from the situation on the battlefield, these machine gunners who have just come up are exaggerated to describe them as amateurs.
In addition to a lot of heavy machine gun bullets, they are also very tricky, causing casualties to their subordinates from time to time. The bullets fired by the other light machine gunners didn't know where they had gone, and they didn't threaten the safety of their subordinates at all.
At this time, each light and heavy machine gun on the position was replaced with two rounds, and with the loss of riflemen, four or five hundred people were absolutely indispensable. But this result is definitely very cost-effective for Huang Zhongxin. (To be continued.) )
