Chapter 14: Entering the War Again
When they arrived at Wusongkou on Tuesday, Zhao Dahu's supplementary regiment was assisting the 61st Division in attacking the Japanese troops who had just occupied the Wusong railway wharf.
On Tuesday, the dog stepped forward to ask for battle, and was reprimanded by Zhao Dahu: "We are soldiers, and it is appropriate to shed blood desperately, we are not dead as soldiers, and we can't let you people die!" ”
On Tuesday, the dog was not discouraged, and waved his hand to the back, and He Laifu led people to carry 4 mortars. "Sir, this is road money! What do you think? Tuesday Dog asked respectfully.
"This ......," Zhao Dahu muttered.
"Well, let's provide fire support to the head office on the second line, right?" Tuesday the dog gave way.
"Okay, you guys return to Qingyun as a reserve!" Zhao Dahu compromised.
"Yes!" But Xiang Qingyun is bad, more than 1,000 people are under his command, and the firepower is strong and well-equipped, this is a super regimental force!
On the streets outside the wharf, Zhao Dahu's troops withstood the impact of the Japanese army's bullet rain, and the Japanese army fought street battles with the help of buildings.
On Tuesday, the dog asked Xiang Qingyun for instructions, so and so...... Xiang Qingyun was overjoyed when he heard it.
On Tuesday, the dog barked at several leaders and assigned tasks: one person from each of the earthwork team, pistol team, and fast gun team, forming a group called the ground group, and the local surface group was blown up by the earthwork team members with small explosives bags to blow up the courtyard wall, and the pistol and the flower machine gun cooperated to clean up the Japanese troops in the courtyard, and several groups attacked alternately along the courtyards on both sides of the street, led by Lu Ao; The pistol team, the fast gun team, and the machine gun team each have one main and deputy shooter, forming a house group, the flower machine gun is responsible for cleaning up the Japanese troops in the courtyard of the house, the light machine gun is responsible for striking the Japanese troops in the distance, and the pistol is responsible for covering the flower machine gun and light machine gun, and at the same time using grenades to hit the Japanese army, led by Wan Zixiong. With the cooperation of Tuesday's dog's ground team and Fangshang's team, Zhao Dahu's troops successfully attacked and advanced more than 500 meters in 40 minutes.
At the intersection of the street, the crossfire of the two Japanese pillboxes blocked the offensive of the first army, and Zhao Dahu even sent 4 demolition teams were defeated by the Japanese fire. Fortunately, on Tuesday, the upper group of the dog house arrived and blocked the Japanese shooting hole with 5 light machine guns, and Zhao Dahu's demoman took advantage of the situation to stuff the explosive bag into a pillbox, but was thrown out by the Japanese army, and the 16 or 7-year-old soldier stuffed the explosive bag back again and blocked the shooting hole with his body......
With a "pass", the bunker was lifted off, and the soldiers were blown to pieces!
Lu Ao and Wan Zixiong both rushed forward and threw four grenades into the shooting hole of another pillbox. Zhao Dahu's troops then rushed forward.
Tuesday Dog was shaken by an unknown creep! After calming down, Tuesday Dog drew two drawings and ordered Zhou Dagou to rush back to the repair shop.
At noon, Tuesday Dog's Man brought a large pot of braised pork and rice. After Zhao Dahu nibbled on two chicken legs, he took the cigarette handed over by the dog on Tuesday, "Zhou Wumu, give me your man-made book, I will report it in the name of the recruits of the supplementary regiment, once there are three long and two short, the country will give a pension!" Since he sacrificed his life for the country, he has to leave his name in history! ”
"Yes, sir!" On Tuesday, the dog was overjoyed, and he understood that Zhao Dahu had finally agreed to let them go into battle.
In the afternoon, Xiang Qingyun organized the ground team and the house team to summarize and adjust the tactical problems and grouping: 7 people in each group, 3 people on the ground, 4 people on the house, the ground wall breaker is responsible for using explosives and pickaxes to open the courtyard wall, and after entering the hospital, he uses grenades to eliminate the enemy in the house, the ground fast gunner is responsible for the frontal main attack, the short gunner is responsible for the side and rear cover, the machine gunner on the house is responsible for destroying the enemy in the distance, the secondary shooter is responsible for carrying, providing ammunition and observing the target, the fast gunner covers the machine gun, and the short gunner attacks the enemy on the ground near the ground. A total of 12 teams were formed, and tactical coordination exercises were conducted using existing premises. Anyway, the offensive process of Zhao Dahu's troops in the morning far exceeded that of other troops, and they could not rush forward too much, so they were not in a hurry to launch an attack. Zhao Dahu gathered his officers and Tuesday Dog and other people, discussed tactics, and waited for the soldiers to rest well before starting to attack.
In less than an hour, Zhao Dahu's troops had conquered all the built-up areas, stopped at the edge of the open field, and completed the offensive mission, while the other troops were still fighting to the death in street battles.
Just as Zhao Dahu was considering whether to continue the attack or wait for his brothers' troops, the Japanese troops on the other side of the open field preemptively began shelling, and Zhao Dahu was caught off guard and injured more than a dozen brothers.
Zhao Dahu immediately decided to go on the offensive. First, we can't wait to be bombed, and second, we can create opportunities for the overall situation by breaking through the Japanese positions first.
** The horn of the charge sounded in the position, and the soldiers shouted and began to charge.
The Japanese artillery opened heavy fire, and ** immediately retreated.
After repeating it several times, the Japanese artillery fire was sparse, and they finally understood that Zhao Dahu was consuming their ammunition!
Zhao Dahu's troops launched another charge, and when they rushed out of the distance, they began to retreat when they saw that the Japanese were sparsely fired. Suddenly, dozens of war horses rushed out of the street, and immediately all the flower machine guns sprayed tongues of fire, and quickly rushed into the Japanese position, and Zhao Dahu's infantry also quickly covered up.
The Japanese army also swarmed to plug the gap in the battle line, and the two sides fought together!
Zhao Dahu picked up a rifle and rushed forward with a bayonet, and Tuesday Dog also rushed forward with a double knife, but no one fished out the bayonet. On Tuesday, the dog's guards, led by He Laifu, rushed in front of them and cleared the way for them with powerful shell gun fire.
The Japanese army, known for its fearlessness, was defeated by the most powerful melee firepower and the same fearless attack. Zhao Dahu did not relent, and did not give the Japanese army a chance to give full play to its artillery superiority.
When it got dark, Zhao Dahu's troops had penetrated more than 2,000 meters into the Japanese front line and gained a firm foothold. They crushed a Japanese brigade and captured 1 Type 92 infantry gun, 24 shells, 4 heavy machine guns, 11 light machine guns, 7 grenadiers, 59 grenades, 95 rifles, 11 pistols, 454 grenades, 317 enemy casualties, 1 radio station, 2 telephones, several ammunition, 8 carts, and 11 pack horses; On their side, 76 were killed, 85 were seriously wounded, 228 were slightly wounded, and a number of firearms and ammunition were lost.
Zhao Dahu retreated his troops 300 meters to rest. They silently ate the braised pork bibimbap sent by the dog on Tuesday, drank the fragrant broth, and their eyes still flashed with murderous light.
Zhao Dahu arranged the vigilance, but he was still excited and energetic, so he went to various departments to inspect, especially Tuesday Dog's subordinates.
As soon as he walked into Tuesday Dog's camp, Zhao Dahu was surrounded by Liu Mao'er and his people, who didn't talk about the rules and etiquette of their superiors and subordinates.
"This is our territory, let's them overnight!"
"Take advantage of their unstable foothold, and hit them by surprise again!"
"Let's do it, save yourself from shelling tomorrow!"
Zhao Dahu looked at Tuesday Dog, this kid had a confident posture.
Zhao Dahu sent people to light two small bonfires in the open area, and the Japanese artillery fire quickly smashed over. On Tuesday, many of the dog's men were eating on the dock, and after confirming the location of the Japanese artillery position, Lu Ao infiltrated it in batches with the grenadiers of the pistol team and the fire team.
Lu Ao cautiously searched and advanced at the front, ahead of which were the Japanese infantry positions.
Suddenly, Lu Ao bowed down. He saw the reflection of the steel helmet of the Japanese army's dark whistle. Lu Ao immediately realized that the Japanese camp had arrived. He picked up a small pebble and threw it at the Japanese sentry, hitting the Japanese soldier's steel helmet with a crisp sound.
"Yaga!" A Japanese officer rushed over angrily to inquire about the situation. Lu Ao didn't move.
With a wave of the Japanese officer's hand, several Japanese sentries stood up and began to search. Lu Ao shot down the Japanese officer, and there was a big chaos and gunfire broke out. Lu Ao took a pistol team and grenadiers to bypass the Japanese position and went straight to the Japanese artillery position. The rest of the matter was handed over to Zhao Dahu's main force.
Lu Ao was discovered when he was about to approach the Japanese artillery position, so he had to brave the bright light of the flares to carry out a strong attack, but he was pressed by the machine gun on the Japanese watchtower and couldn't raise his head.
Suddenly, the sound of "all-through" grenadiers sounded behind Lu Ao, and in an instant, the Japanese artillery position was killed and plunged into a sea of fire......
Lu Ao led his men to reflexively kill back to the Japanese infantry position.
After Lu Ao attacked and harassed the Japanese infantry position and turned to the artillery position, Zhao Dahu did not immediately launch a second attack, but waited for the Japanese army to gradually subside, and ordered Wan Zixiong's fast gun team to launch a feint attack to attack the right side of the Japanese infantry position, and the Japanese had no choice but to accept the attack.
Wan Zixiong gradually intensified the offensive, because Wan Zixiong's fast gun team had super firepower, and the Japanese had to resist with all their might, exposing all their firepower.
Zhao Dahu listened to the density of the Japanese army's firepower and felt that the Japanese army's firepower was almost exposed, so he issued an order for a frontal attack, and it happened that Lu Ao's return horse shot was killed.
However, the Japanese army struggled to support it with its powerful firepower and well-trained individual soldier quality and tactical cooperation!
Fortunately, the summer nights were short, and the soldiers on both sides who had been fighting for several hours were exhausted and stayed up until dawn. At this time, Tuesday Dog brought a group of fresh troops into the battle group! The machine guns covered the spear team and rushed into the crowd and started hand-to-hand combat, and the Japanese soldiers were completely desperate!
Accompanied by the sound of the motor of the car, the Japanese army also had a new force to join the battle group, a total of 50 trucks, a brigade of soldiers. These warriors of Great Japan also entered the war group with red eyes.
Lu Ao's pistol team immediately used shell guns to mercilessly shoot the Japanese soldiers who had withdrawn their bullets, and most of the spear team also rushed over.
Xiang Qingyun with the machine gun team, the long knife team, the crossbow team, the earthwork team, the sharpshooter team, the fire team and other guard troops to catch up, he saw that the first force was superior, so he decisively sent the long knife team to help, and he took the rest of the troops through the melee area under the machine gun team, and went straight to the convoy where the Japanese reinforcements stopped not far away.
In addition to the 4 or 50 trucks of the Japanese army's "watching the battle" troops, there were also large trucks of the transport team, heavy machine gun squadrons, and artillery squads.
The Japanese army relied on the strong firepower of the machine guns and did not want to have stronger firepower against Qingyun: the Japanese army had two infantry guns that could not be used, 12 heavy machine guns, 36 light machine guns, and 36 grenadiers; Xiang Qingyun has 1 heavy machine gun, 52 light machine guns, 30 grenadiers, 120 sharpshooters, plus 18 heavy machine guns and 81 light machine guns of Zhao Dahu's regiment.
In addition, Xiang Qingyun's ingenious formation also made the Japanese army unguardable - the sharpshooters and heavy machine guns covered, and the machine guns charged: the sharpshooters killed the Japanese officers, machine gunners, and grenadiers, which greatly reduced the firepower of the Japanese army. The Japanese fire support units were wiped out in an instant.
In this battle, Zhao Dahu's division annihilated two infantry brigades and a field artillery squadron of the Japanese army, totaling 1,570 people, captured 1 75mm mountain gun, 180 shells, and destroyed 5 mountain guns; 4 Type 92 infantry guns, more than 70 shells; 11 heavy machine guns with more than 15,000 rounds of ammunition, 36 grenadiers with more than 570 rounds of ammunition, 27 crooked light machine guns, 430 Type 38 rifles with 46,000 rounds of ammunition, 157 Nanfang pistols, 4,100 grenades, 45 cars, 40 carts, 58 pack horses, 1 war horse, 6 adjutant knives, and 27 lieutenant knives......
