There is still a big difference between field artillery and mountain artillery. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As soon as the ten field guns were fired, Major General Watanabe discovered the clues. When he saw the smoke rising from the battlefield, Major General Watanabe followed.

Facing the chief of staff, he excitedly reported: "Good news! The Liaodong Army that was blocking us ran out of artillery. Chief of staff, what they are firing now is field artillery, and there are only ten of them, not even the size of a battalion, it is likely that what is left of their field artillery regiment just now. ”

"As long as we can destroy these ten field artillery, I am ninety percent sure that the Liaodong Army is out of artillery!"

"Yo Xi!" The chief of staff also laughed.

Watanabe's judgment, he still trusts it very much. After only a brief contemplation of the soul, the chief of staff ordered: "The attacking troops will be withdrawn immediately, ready to launch a new round of attack, and take the defense line of the Liaodong Army in one fell swoop." “

An infantry wing, with less than 1,500 people retreating in the end.

And the last ten field guns exposed by the Liaodong Army, under the counterattack of the two heavy artillery brigades of the Japanese army, did not insist on silent fire for a minute.

Soon, the third round of the Japanese offensive began.

This time, although the Japanese army was not prepared for artillery fire, it was a wing as soon as it came up, which directly reflected the inevitable success of the Japanese army's attack.

Looking at the Japanese army getting closer and closer in front of the battle, Zhou Qiangsheng, who received the news that all ten field guns had been destroyed, also realized that there would be a vicious battle waiting for him next.

After looking at his pocket watch, Zhou Qiangsheng immediately said: "There is still one hour before the time stipulated by the commander. As long as we repel this round of Japanese attacks, we will be able to retreat! “

The chief of staff frowned and said: "It's too difficult, I just saw that the Japanese army has strengthened the covering firepower of the attack again, and the heavy machine guns have increased from dozens to a hundred!" “

"And their offensive formation has also changed, more than 3,000 people are concentrated together, and more than 100 light machine guns are also used intensively! It is clear that they intend to concentrate their forces and firepower and tear a hole in our defensive line. “

"Even if it's difficult, you have to fight!" Zhou Qiangsheng said categorically.

"The biggest threat to us from the Japanese army is heavy machine guns, as long as they are rendered useless, we have a way to defeat them."

"What do you mean, Commander?" The chief of staff hurriedly asked.

The other regiment leaders also seemed to have discussed, and at the same time focused their eyes on Zhou Qiangsheng.

Zhou Qiangsheng thought about it and replied: "Let the Japanese soldiers come in to fight, as long as the Japanese soldiers are mixed with us, or rush into our position, their heavy machine guns will be useless!" ”

The chief of staff was stunned for a moment, and then quickly shook his head and vetoed: "No, this is too dangerous!" The Japanese army is a wing of three thousand people, not a squadron of one or two hundred people. One is not good, not only will we not be able to defeat them, but we will be broken through the line by the Japanese army! ”

"No, the victory will be ours!" Zhou Qiangsheng replied confidently.

"We have more than 7,000 people, and the Japanese army has only one wing of 3,000 people. In addition to heavy machine guns and artillery, the light infantry firepower is no worse than that of the Japanese army! There are also pistols suitable for close combat, and all the reconnaissance units in the division are basically equipped with long and short guns. Coupled with the pistols equipped by the company platoon commander and the guard unit, the whole division still had three or four hundred pistols. ”

The chief of staff on the side had his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "The pistol is the most suitable for close combat!" Three or four hundred pistols joined the battlefield together, and even if one pistol only wiped out three Japanese troops, then we could eliminate more than a thousand people in a short time. “

"Coupled with the losses in the Japanese attack, it would be good to have a thousand Japanese troops who can be mixed with us in the end."

"Seven thousand of us against one thousand Japanese soldiers, even if we fight with them, one life for one life, no, two lives for one life, then we can end the battle in a very short time!"

"Divisional commander, I think this plan is completely feasible. However, we must be prepared to prevent accidents! ”

Under the cover of more than a hundred heavy machine guns, a wing of Japanese troops quickly rushed to a position less than two hundred meters from the position.

Now that it has been decided to render the Japanese heavy machine guns useless through close combat, the Japanese heavy machine gunners on the position can already easily kill and injure the Japanese heavy machine gunners and shoot a shuttle and bullet at the Japanese attacking troops at every opportunity.

Even if a shuttle bullet could only destroy one Japanese soldier in the past, the sporadic firing of dozens of heavy machine guns constantly shifting the heavy machine gun positions caused more than 200 casualties to the Japanese army in a short period of time.

At this time, more than a hundred light machine guns were also fired, and the casualties of the Japanese army immediately skyrocketed. However, under the suppression of the fierce offensive firepower of the Japanese army, this counterattack was simply impossible to stop the Japanese offensive.

A hundred meters, several thousand riflemen also fired.

The casualties of the Japanese attacking forces also increased considerably. Of course, under the blow of the fierce offensive fire of the Japanese army, the losses of the 2nd Division were not small. Especially the light and heavy machine gunners who were taken care of by the Japanese army have changed two full stubbles, and some even three stubbles!

"Grenade ready, throw grenades!" Seeing that the Japanese troops had rushed to fifty meters in front of the formation, the officers at all levels on the positions of the 2nd Division immediately ordered.

As soon as hundreds of grenades flew out of the position, the Liaodong Army guarding the position began to retreat.

Before the Japanese troops who rushed to the front could react, a violent grenade explosion enveloped them.

The Japanese troops in the back were not idle in shock, and immediately took out grenades to counterattack. Soon, bursts of explosions rang out from the defenders' positions.

At the same time, the defenders never threw a single grenade at themselves.

"Could it be that the Liaodong Army defending the position was blown up by grenades!" The same thought came to the minds of many Japanese soldiers.

More than 2,000 Japanese troops, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, screamed and pounced on the already empty position.

At this time, the smoke of gunpowder that shrouded the position had not yet dissipated. The Liaodong Army, which stepped on the defenders' positions, could not see the situation in front clearly. But taking the positions of the defenders is a fact after all. Therefore, the Japanese troops who rushed to the position were very excited and did not have much vigilance.

And at this moment, less than thirty meters in front of them, a burst of murderous shouts suddenly erupted.

Thousands of Liaodong troops, while rushing to the position, threw the last grenade before the battle to the position.

The grenade that fell from the sky gave the Japanese army a slap in the face, causing the Japanese army to lose another three or four hundred people.

But in the face of the Liaodong Army that rushed towards him, the Japanese army, who was full of confidence in his assassination, not only did not retreat, but also looked fanatical.

Quickly loaded the rifle with a bayonet, held the rifle, and roared and rushed towards the Liaodong Army.

Soon, the two murderous troops collided face to face.

What made the Japanese army feel aggrieved was that although the rifles in the hands of the Liaodong Army were loaded with bayonets, they did not withdraw from the bullets and directly stabbed themselves.

When he picked up his rifle and was about to stab the other person in the chest.

The Liaodong Army in front of him not only did not have fear, but showed a sneer.

Quickly turn the muzzle of the gun to yourself and pull the trigger.

Shots rang out, and a bloody hole immediately appeared in the chest of the Japanese soldiers. The very spicy face also showed a shocked expression of disbelief. (To be continued.) )
