201: Busy line of defense

'Whoosh~~~'

Suddenly, there was a scream of bullying in the air, and the sound made people not feel trembling after hearing it, it was from the deep fear of the soul. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Many people chose to look up at the sky, as if to see what was going on there. What is the reason exactly? can make God can't help but let out such a miserable scream.

'......Boom'

The sky, without giving them any answer, responded to the soldiers with a tremor of the earth. Even the earth could not withstand the anger of the 75mm shell, and the earth trembled slightly, as if it was afraid, as if it was afraid.

An infantry shell of 75 mm caliber fell at a distance of about 100 meters in front of the position, and exploded violently, leaving a deep crater in the otherwise unremarkable land. This was followed by the impact of the explosion of the shells, accompanied by shrapnel of various sizes, dirt, gravel, and even smoking wooden blocks.

An orange flame instantly rose into the air, and immediately after, the dust from the explosion blocked everyone's vision.

What does it feel like? In the boot camp, they had never seen anything like it. For a while, almost all the recruits were stunned, and even those veterans, there were many who didn't react.

It can be said that the soldiers in the current Han army have basically not experienced artillery battles, and their understanding of artillery battles is only limited to the accounts of the commanders during the training.

But their commander has also never experienced artillery battles, and their understanding of artillery battles also comes from the descriptions of Wang Sirui and Duan Qirui.

"Anti-artillery! Anti-artillery! Anti-artillery! At the moment when the shell exploded, He Xin, the commander of the first company, reacted, so he immediately shouted loudly to the soldiers on the defensive line.

And those soldiers who were still stunned were also called back by the company commander's shout, and under the company commander's shout, they reacted, it turned out that this was an artillery battle, a terrifying artillery battle.

'Bang ......'

With a soft sound, in the chaotic environment of the cannonball explosion, He Xin kicked the boot next to him on the buttocks, except for the recruit and the other soldiers around him, the soldiers in the distance were not attracted by He Xin's action.

For the huge sound of artillery, He Xin's move was really too insignificant.

"Anti-artillery! Anti-artillery! It's all fucking into the defensive hole! What are you still doing? Waiting to die? He Xin was very dissatisfied with his soldiers and roared.

He had obviously shouted the anti-artillery gun, but these soldiers still did not go into the anti-artillery hole as required. Compared with the previous training situation, the troops in front of him made He Xin feel a lot stranger in an instant, just like when he first took over them, this is a unit that lacks training.

This time, the soldiers finally reacted, and they forgot to continue to watch the excitement at the moment, and hurriedly drilled into the nearest anti-artillery hole one by one.

He Xin's roar is useful, at least now the soldiers have all gone into the anti-artillery holes, as long as their luck is not too bad and they are directly hit by the shells, generally speaking, these artillery fire will not pose a threat to his troops.

Recruits are afraid of artillery, veterans are afraid of machine guns. Although I don't know if this sentence is reliable or not, that's what the people above said.

However, the scene in front of him once again aroused He Xin's dissatisfaction.

"Platoon leader, arrange for three observation posts to stay on it." He Xin shouted towards a long row in an anti-artillery hole not far away.

"Yes, company commander!" The platoon leader was stunned, but he quickly thought of the requirements of training on weekdays.

According to the usual training, if such a situation occurs, each company should send at least three observation posts to observe the situation on the opposite side.

Of course, this is not to let them stand up and be a target for the enemy, they can choose this position at will, how to hide, how to be safe, how comfortable to come, but there is a premise, that is, you can always keep an eye on the front to prevent the enemy's infantry from rushing up at this time.

Obviously, the platoon commander also understood why the company commander was so angry. First of all, the troops were disrupted by the sudden artillery bombardment, and everyone forgot to defend against artillery, and then none of the four platoons arranged sentries in a platoon, and the overall tactical mistake caused by the result that the platoon closest to the company commander He Xin needed to arrange three sentries.

This battle has just begun, but a company has already exposed a lot of problems, these problems are not big problems, but often at some critical times, they can always kill them.

'......Boom'

An artillery shell exploded about ten meters in front of the anti-artillery hole where He Xin was, and the shrapnel bypassed the bunker above and plunged heavily into the dirt behind the trench, a deep mark in front of He Xin.

However, at this time, He Xin didn't have the energy to care about the god of death who was only one meter away from him.

The explosion of the shell at close range made He Xin, who was unable to deal with it, have tinnitus, and his ears were instantly occupied by the sound of buzzing, and his whole ear was even more painful.

Some of the soldiers around him were not too affected, after all, after entering the anti-artillery hole, they almost remembered the requirements of the previous training, and everyone either opened their mouths or covered their ears hard.

Although the shells exploded at such a close distance, it was impossible for them not to be affected in any way, but compared to He Xin, they were much less affected.

About twenty or so shells exploded, the soldier in charge of observation jumped into the trench from above the bunker, and shouted loudly while running towards He Xin's position: "The little devil is here......

"What? What did you say? Be louder, Lao Tzu can't hear it......" Seeing the soldier with a frightened face in front of him, he didn't know what to say, He Xin used all his strength and asked loudly.

At this moment, He Xin's tinnitus has improved slightly, but his ears are still buzzing, and he can't hear any movement outside.

"Company commander, the little devil is here! What shall we do? The soldier shouted in a hurry.

"What? Can't hear me, you louder! He Xin continued to raise his voice, so that soldiers dozens of meters away could hear He Xin's shouting.

Just when the soldier was a little overwhelmed, a platoon leader quickly ran over with a Japanese Type 30 rifle in his hand.

The platoon leader pointed to the opposite side, and then pulled He Xin out of the anti-artillery hole, and then the two came to the back of the bunker.

Looking at the dense Japanese soldiers in front of him, He Xin finally understood what the soldier under his command was shouting before. But He Xin still couldn't hear the sound outside, and he was very anxious in his heart.

"Order the troops to enter the position, and no shots are allowed without an order." He Xin said to the platoon commander, originally he wanted him to personally command the battle, but now his ears have severe tinnitus, and it is not suitable to continue to command the battle for the time being, so he continued: "Platoon leader, now my ears can't hear, you temporarily take over from me to command the troops, when the enemy enters the range of four hundred meters, the machine gun fire suppresses, within three hundred meters, the infantry can fire, before I can hear the sound, you have to shoulder the combat mission here." ”

"Yes, company commander!" Although He Xin couldn't hear any sound now, the platoon leader still responded loudly.

"Pillar, go and inform everyone to quickly enter the position, and wait for my order to open fire!" The platoon leader glanced at the pillar that was lying in the trench at a loss, and ordered loudly.

"Yes, platoon commander!" The pillar answered, and immediately ran towards the side where there were many soldiers.

In fact, he didn't deliberately run back and forth with the pillar to notify the other comrades to enter the position, because the conversation between He Xin and the platoon leader had already been heard by the soldiers within twenty meters nearby.

The shelling did not bring any casualties to the company, if you insist on casualties, then the most seriously injured may be their company commander He Xin, so far, He Xin still can't hear anything, the situation is the most serious, the other soldiers were frightened, but after the artillery fire stopped, their situation also improved.

Seeing that the shelling did not bring them casualties, this also gave the soldiers of the first company confidence in their hearts, at least this shelling allowed them to confirm that the anti-artillery holes they dug were effective.

The enemy wasted more than twenty shells in vain, and what they brought was nothing more than some frightening in terms of momentum.

Those veterans who came back to their senses, after hearing the conversation between the company commander He Xin and the platoon commander, immediately pulled their nearby comrades, whether they were veterans or recruits, all went up to the position and lay behind the pre-prepared bunker.

"In front of our defensive line, there are about two platoons of the enemy attacking, we have an advantage in numbers, the defensive pressure is not great, and there are heavy machine guns and minefields to suppress, as far as possible to let the soldiers shoot steadily, while ensuring the hit rate, as much as possible to save some ammunition." Although he had temporarily handed over the command of the company, after seeing the situation on the other side, He Xin couldn't help but tell the platoon commander what he should do at this time.

Although the Han army is not short of ammunition at present, they also have an arsenal that can be replenished with ammunition continuously. The fatal thing is that they don't produce the 6.5mm cartridges needed for the Type 30 rifle, which means that if they run out of 6.5mm ammunition before the war is over, they will lose all supplies.

At that time, unless they were equipped with 7.92 mm Mauser 1898 rifles, they would simply not be able to continue fighting.
