Seeing that the first and second companies of the machine gun battalion were busy on the position, Liu Tianshu felt that he was still not steady. The weapons used in the machine gun battalion www.biquge.info "Fun" are all heavy machine guns, one company has 12 guns, a platoon has two machine gun squads of two for a total of four, and one squad has ammunition squads.

Heavy machine guns are tigers that consume ammunition, and once a fight starts, the ammunition consumption is very huge. Although the last time the 2nd Regiment robbed the Devil Army, it captured a large amount of ammunition and reorganized the heavy machine gun battalion, but its ammunition reserves were enough to fight two large-scale battles.

Besides, if only machine guns are used to defend the position, without the assistance of infantry, once the devils break through the blocking position, the consequences will be unimaginable.

It's just that Liu Tianshu didn't have infantry in his hands for a while, and Shi Qiang's reconnaissance team couldn't come in time, so he could only take risks.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly checked the machine-gun position. I was relieved to see that the twelve heavy machine guns of the first company were all arranged thirty meters apart in strict accordance with the requirements.

As soon as the position was checked, the devils on the opposite side of the rocky gangzi sent a squadron to rush to this side, and behind the devils in this squadron, two infantry guns were immediately erected.

Seeing this scene, Liu Tianshu asked the guard to hand the sniper rifle and found a place to hide.

Anyway, when the battle started, Pang Fuyong would command the machine gun battalion to open fire, and he was not needed to command.

Noeda Shaosa saw that there was a rocky hill in front of him, and he immediately became careful. Coming from Motianling, he was blocked twice by the Eighth Route in a row, and he did not believe that the Eighth Route Army would not deploy defenses in the Ranshi Gangzi.

Because of rushing through the rocky hills, five miles to the north, you will arrive at the Dragon King Temple.

According to the battle report forwarded above, Jiping's imperial army had been in hot pursuit from the west.

After holding the binoculars and looking at them for a while, I finally noticed that there were figures moving on the opposite ridge. After ordering the 3rd Squadron to prepare for the attack, he prepared the artillery of the brigade for shelling.

With Noeda's order, two infantry guns began to fire at the opposite Ranshi Gangzi, and the shells flew forward with a sharp whistling sound, and at the same time, more than a hundred soldiers who were responsible for attacking the Ranshi Gangzi also began to trot forward under the command of the squadron leader.

Seeing the shells flying, Pang Fuyong immediately ordered the soldiers to hide, but fortunately, the machine gun bunkers arranged were still hidden, and the devil artillery did not determine the specific location, but only carried out suppressive bombardment.

The mortar company arranged in the back, the six mortars are already in full array, but it is a pity that the devil's 92 infantry guns are outside its effective range and cannot be suppressed at all.

However, the devil's 92 infantry guns were also deployed 2,500 meters away, and although they could hit the rocky hills, they could not hit the mortar positions arranged behind.

After ten minutes of shelling by the devils, the attacking Japanese finally rushed to a distance of 500 meters from the position of the first company.

Zeng Jie, the commander of the first company, saw that one of his heavy machine gun teams was unfortunately hit by devil artillery fire, and the four soldiers were directly blown away, and a heavy machine gun was suddenly destroyed before it could be fired, with hatred and anger in his eyes.

Seeing that when the devil rushed to four hundred meters, he had not yet dispersed the formation, and he immediately shouted and struck.

As a result, the four heavy machine guns of the first company immediately opened fire on the devils lined up in a dense formation, and the dull gunfire rang out, and the bullets flew out of the post, and in a blink of an eye they were in front of the attacking devils.

The devil didn't expect that on the post in front, the Eighth Route Army actually arranged a heavy machine gun, and he was caught off guard for a while, and the devils who ran in front fell in pieces, and the devils behind panicked and hurriedly dispersed.

The devil artilleryman, who was responsible for the suppression of fire in the back, suddenly saw four heavy machine guns rising on the opposite hill, and immediately adjusted the barrels and prepared to fire at the position of the heavy machine guns.

Zeng Jie knew the power of the devil's artillery, and when the four heavy machine guns finished firing a bullet board, the four soldiers immediately quickly dismantled the machine guns and dragged them along the trench to the next position.

The company commander said that the devil's artillery fire was very tricky, and if he didn't transfer it in time, he was afraid that he would be directly knocked out by the devil's artillery fire.

A soldier has to be responsible for more than 100 pounds of heavy machine guns of more than 400 catties, but fortunately, the fighters of the machine gun battalion have been specially trained to transfer in battle, and they are very skillful in a series of actions to dismantle the gun and run with the gun, and they run out of 10 meters in a blink of an eye.

Sure enough, as soon as the heavy machine guns of the first company were transferred, the devil's retaliatory artillery fire hit the firepower points that had just been exposed, and in the blink of an eye, the positions of the four firepower points were blown into ruins.

Liu Tianshu lay behind a pile of withered yellow grass, and his eyes looked through the scope on the sniper infantry, carefully searching for the devil commander.

It's a pity that after looking at it for a while, he didn't find the devil squadron leader, so he had to lasso a devil officer with a Rendan beard who ran in front, and then steadily pulled the board gun, and as a bullet flew out, a cloud of blood mist appeared on the head of the devil officer, and his body slowly fell.

Liu Tianshu hadn't shot the enemy with his own hands for a long time, and this time he finally had the opportunity to do it himself, so he naturally wanted to have a good time.

In the blink of an eye, he used up the five bullets in the gun, and after killing two officers, two machine gunners and a grenadier soldier, he quickly ran to the side with his gun, and behind him was Hu Qianshi, a guard who bent his body and followed closely.

At this time, the attacking devils saw that the heavy machine guns on the hill seemed to be dumbfounded, and began to rush forward like chicken blood, and in the blink of an eye, they were within 300 meters.

At the same time, the devils began to disperse, rushing towards the rocky hill along a battle line as wide as five hundred meters.

Zeng Jie saw that the devil's artillery stopped firing, and his infantry rushed to a place less than three hundred meters away from the position, and immediately ordered the other three firing points to open fire immediately.

Three heavy machine guns immediately opened fire on the devil in front of them, and the bullets rained down, weaving a web of death in an area of about a hundred meters on both sides of the road.

The devil who rushed towards this area was immediately hit head-on, but the devil knew that he could only destroy the enemy by rushing forward, so he immediately jumped forward and shot at the same time, while the heavy machine gun behind him was quickly set up, and then fired at the heavy machine gun on the hill.

Noeda looked through the binoculars and saw three new machine-gun fire points, and his heart sank.

It seems that the eight roads on the opposite side should have been prepared in advance, and these three firepower points are obviously not the firepower points that were exposed just now. In this way, the opposite 8th road has at least seven heavy machine guns.

Fortunately, he still has infantry artillery for fire suppression.

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the infantry artillery to open fire again, providing fire suppression for the attacking troops.

Infantry artillery is the most correct and effective way to hit exposed points of fire.

Sure enough, with the roar of the infantry artillery, the three heavy machine guns of the Eighth Route Army on both sides of the road were muted one after another.

Liu Tianshu looked back and saw that the machine guns had lost four heavy machine gun crews in a blink of an eye, and his eyes were already full of tears.

He knew that war has always been very cruel, although the heavy machine gun is a sharp weapon to defend the position, but the artillery is the nemesis of the heavy machine gun, like this kind of machine gun fortifications built in the mountains, once exposed, if it cannot be transferred in time, it will basically be destroyed by artillery fire.

Zeng Jie saw that his three machine gun crews were defeated one after another in the confrontation with the devils, and he was so angry that he smashed his fist on the dirt around him.

Just as he gritted his teeth and was about to order the other four heavy machine guns to fire, a burst of shells suddenly flew out from behind the hill and landed straight in the ranks of the attacking devils, and suddenly a ball of fire rose in front of his eyes. The devils were in the heavy machine gun team and the grenadier drivers, and the explosion of the shells was directly carried into the sky, and those devils who were holding their guns and firing while rushing forward kept falling in the explosion.

The formation of the devil's attack was inflicted heavy casualties under the rapid fire of the mortar company.

Three minutes later, the mortar company's artillery fire stopped, and the devils under the hill who had escaped by luck stood up in horror, and saw all the cries for help from their wounded companions, as for those who were motionless, they had obviously returned to the East.

Noeda didn't expect that there was such a fierce artillery fire in the hands of the eight roads on the opposite side, and his face became extremely embarrassed as he watched the attacking soldiers being shrouded in the smoke of the explosion.

"Artilleryman, give me the artillery fire of the Eighth Road." After a while, he came back to his senses, and in a fit of rage, he ordered the artillery squad to destroy the artillery fire arranged behind the hill by the Eighth Road.

"Shao Zuo, the artillery positions of the people of China are out of the range of our artillery fire, and we can't reach them at all." The artillery squad leader whispered with shame on his face.

"What? Are you running out of guns?" Hearing the answer of the artillery squad leader, he was stunned all at once.

Since he could not knock out the opponent's artillery, he had to wisely order the attacking soldiers to withdraw.

On the way to the retreat of the Japanese army, Liu Tianshu finally found the Japanese squadron leader, and after he shot the Japanese squadron leader who was hiding among the soldiers, he ran to Pang Fuyong's location with a gun.

Seeing the devil retreating, Zeng Jie was able to take care of the statistical losses, and this count made Zeng Jie feel distressed to death.

In less than an hour of fighting, his company actually lost four heavy machine guns, one of which was hit by a devil's shell without firing a single shot, and the machine gun crew of four people, two of whom were killed and two were seriously injured, as for the heavy machine gun, it was directly blown into parts.

The remaining three that were blown up by the devil's artillery fire sacrificed eight soldiers, three soldiers were wounded, and only one soldier was only stunned, but it was fine.

Fortunately, the ammunition that was put aside was not hit.

After sending people to carry the sacrificed and wounded soldiers to the back, they saw the regiment commander walking over, accompanied by the battalion commander Pang Fuyong.

"Zeng Jie, how is the situation of the troops?" As soon as he saw Zeng Jie, Pang Fuyong asked with concern.

"The regiment commander, the battalion commander, ten fighters were killed, five were wounded, four machine guns were blown up." Zeng Jie said with tears in his eyes.

As soon as he had a machine gun company, he lost a third of his machine gun in the blink of an eye, how could he not feel distressed.

When Liu Tianshu heard this, he raised his hand and patted Zeng Jie's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "They are all sacrificed to fight devils, they are real warriors and real heroes." As warriors, dying on the battlefield, they deserve the title of soldiers. Don't be sad, the next round of the devil's attack will start soon, so get the fighters ready for the next battle.
