Major General Seiyuki Tada's ease lasted only a few minutes, and he was numb from being shocked by the dense explosions that followed!

He rushed into the courtyard again as if he had been stabbed in the ass, climbed up to the roof and looked in the direction from which the sound came, despite the guards, and this time finally saw where the state capital was, and the vast expanse of smoke rose violently against the horizon, as if it were connected with the border of the dark clouds hanging low in the sky.

It was as if Hell opened its gates and spewed out sulfur fireworks that burned the earth to ashes, and the Heavenly Dome Punishment Power that was about to rain down the world-destroying thunder was one, a huge terrifying force that could destroy a single qiē, unleashed unscrupulously in the roar that shook the heavens and the earth!

"It's shelling! Terrible heavy artillery bombardment! Bastard, I knew it, I knew it wouldn't ......be that light-hearted. His cheeks twitched, he muttered incoherently, and suddenly turned his head and yelled hysterically below, "Quick! Immediately notify the owners of the 23rd Wing to evacuate the original village and town buildings, and the brigade headquarters and the 13th Wing headquarters must also be moved immediately, it is not safe here! ”

Perhaps it was the stimulation of the sudden overload that made his chaotic brain suddenly brighten, and he suddenly realized that all the inhabitants of this area had fled, not simply afraid of the war, but definitely an organized fortified wilderness! And it's not just used to delay the offensive of the coalition forces, interfere with and weaken supplies, it's basically to treat this place as a battlefield!

How determined is the determination of the revolutionary army to fight on its own soil, and to dare to do so in such a bursting way! And how much influence do they have on the people? You must know that the population density in northern Jiangsu is not small, and there are less than 100,000 people in a county, and there are only a few people left who can be mobilized. What kind of staggering grassroots work does this have to be done?

Not to mention. It was known in advance that there was going to be a battle here. What is the cost of destroying the homes on which poor civilians depend in order to gain their understanding and support?

If you think about it for a moment, even in a highly hierarchical country, in the era when the samurai of the shogunate clan were strong, a feudal lord could not necessarily force all the people under his rule to obey them.

According to his understanding, although the seemingly tame Chinese people are very afraid of the government, the gentry and local tyrants almost everywhere do not care, and wanting to move their ancestral homes is similar to digging ancestral graves. What means did the revolutionary army use to convince them all?

Whether it is the same or not. What you see in front of you is nothing false!

The vacated state capital town was directly destroyed with heavy artillery without warning, how many people will be homeless? How much house construction to be compensated? They're just crazy!

The garrison of the 23rd Wing was bombed, so did the command organs of his side and other departments be in larger villages and towns, and did they also become the target of the enemy's artillery bombardment?

Quite possibly!

Seiyuki Tada is really scared! He had never seen such crazy tactics in half his life, and he was even more indignant at the extravagant style of the revolutionary army. Today's Japanese Army is poor with a clang, and every bullet and shell must be carefully calculated, and it must be fired only when someone sees it. It is better for them to destroy the enemy who theoretically exists. Just roll up a city the size of a city, and it will take thousands of expensive shells, right? Don't they want money!

This question will never be answered by anyone.

Seiyuki Tada's howl is over. Immediately ripped off by the guards, surrounded him and the brigade headquarters personnel rushed out of the mansion like a swarm, and ran quickly into a forest outside the village without looking back. There were more than a dozen thick trees that neither of them could hug, and they were covered like umbrellas, and even without bulletproof nets, it was estimated that they would not be able to be pierced by shells.

Before he could take a breath, the signal corps in the front position ran panting wildly, and reported tremblingly: "Your Excellency, Major General!" Our reconnaissance unit came out and encountered the enemy and a fierce battle broke out, and the situation was ...... Very bad! ”

"Huh?! How can it be so fast?! It seems that they were five kilometers away before, did they just run over without concealment?! ”

Tada Seiyaki didn't need to look at the map to know that according to the general law of marching, the vanguard armies of the two sides with a distance of five kilometers should at least tentatively move forward, and they would not want to enter the distance of the exchange of fire for an hour.

After all, in such a close place, it is necessary to be vigilant at all times, and try to figure out the deployment of the other party as much as possible, so as to avoid plunging headlong into the encirclement of other people's heavy troops.

But he was wrong again! How long has it been, has it been ten minutes? There was an exchange of fire, so the troops who came out did not obey the order? It's still like the other party is crazy, and he rushed up recklessly without waiting for the large army of heavy weapons to keep up!

The signal soldier replied with a strange face: "It should be like this!" At first, we thought that the enemy had gone mad, but in fact they did rush lightly, and we did not find any heavy weapons, and there were not many of them. But....... ”

Tada Seiyuki just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but was immediately taken aback by his hesitant tone! With enough troubles to face today, could there be anything more frustrating?

The signal corps said with some uncertainty: "One of their forces is small enough to be less than a squad, but the firepower is extremely dense, it seems that there are more than a dozen machine guns strafing, although our army has the advantage in numbers, it is still in a state of passive suppression." ”

Less than a squad, a dozen machine guns ?!

Tada Seiyuki's eyes widened, and he involuntarily gasped, and then blurted out, "It must be the rumored automatic weapon!" It is said that they are equipped with a light machine gun that can fire quickly and continuously, which can be used by individual soldiers, and the effect of close-range suppression is no less than that of machine guns, but the consumption of bullets is too great. ”

This kind of precious information is almost obscured and obscure information that has been obtained through the use of the intelligence network that Japan has painstakingly managed for decades. At the same time, the oral accounts of the soldiers who survived the First Sino-Japanese War were confirmed, but no physical samples were obtained. Now it seems that it has appeared on the opposite side of the battlefield again? It's really fateful!

Tada Seiyuki suddenly thought again, if he could get this kind of weapon, wouldn't it be able to greatly enhance the level of the empire's equipment? It seems that the other party is also arrogant with a small force attacking, right? What a great opportunity!

He immediately waved his fist decisively: "Order the second brigade Kamada Yoshimasa Shaozo." Stop this enemy army at any cost! I gave him permission to use all his weapons and ammunition. Be sure to take them out as fast as you can. Weapons seized! In addition, the engineer brigade was ordered to immediately restore telephone communications, and I had to talk to the front as best I could! ”

The signal corps received the order and turned around and ran to pass it. The telephone line that had just been pulled into the village was also pulled out and reconnected to this side.

After the First Sino-Japanese War, various countries heard about it in various ways, and it was a common means of communication and command in the revolutionary army. Divisions, brigades, and even wing headquarters have set up telephone centers to keep the line open with the brigades below. Although it was very expensive, the 6th Division, which had received full support, was the first to use this advanced gadget. Reputedly...... It is still the handwriting of the Chinese.

Tada Seiyuki didn't know that he had given this order. It became a talisman for the second brigade of the 13th Infantry Wing! Originally, they were ordered to stick to the canal defense line, and only one squadron went out to guard a village stuck on the way south, but because of the order of the brigade headquarters, they had to send more personnel up, and changed from defense to active attack, trying to kill the revolutionary army that rushed in a platoon recklessly.

The first revolutionary soldier to engage the enemy was a reconnaissance platoon from the third battalion of the sixth regiment, in addition to one-fifth of the experienced veterans, one-third of them were from the militia who had practiced kung fu! Whether it is physical intelligence or individual combat ability, it is first-class. Plus the weapons they are equipped with. In addition to two light machine guns, two 56 punches per squad. The rest were all 56 and a half, with a Mauser box cannon stuck in their waists. When there are enough bullets, the density of bullets that this group of people suddenly burst out is enough to catch up with more than a squadron of the Japanese army!

Stimulated by Yang Hao's order to kill, Lin Yongfang let go of the chaos under the agitation of the division commander, and led the soldiers of each regiment and battalion to be eager to fight, and let the sheep go not long after rushing out of the battle line! Fortunately, they are accustomed to the timing of training, and the company-platoon level units will never lose control, and at the same time, the contact with the battalion headquarters has always been close, and they can always maintain the distance between them in terms of athleticism and speed to arrive on time.

The reconnaissance platoon that went out rushed all the way for more than 10 kilometers, and although all of them were panting and sweating, they did not reach their physical limit, but were in the most excited state.

The Japanese troops of the 1st Squadron of the 2nd Brigade had just entered the village, and before they had time to set up defenses, the soldiers of the two squads went out to search and reconnoitre, and they were colliding with them head-on!

It should also be the bad luck of this Japanese army, they are tired from running all the way, they usually don't eat well, and their bodies are far from reaching the height of thirty years later. In addition, almost all of them are recruits with little actual combat experience, so they were in a daze when they saw it.

But the veteran of the reconnaissance platoon reflexively pulled the trigger and ran out the entire magazine! Two 56 rushed out two tongues of fire, sweeping seven or eight exposed Japanese soldiers to the ground on the spot!

The Japanese soldiers behind suddenly woke up and reacted, and hurriedly took refuge in places such as ditches, trees, and dirt slopes, and didn't even have time to make the action of loading the bullets, and suddenly threw a black iron lump in front of them, and a few seconds later, a thunderbolt fell on them, snorting green smoke, and exploded!

Hand grenade!

In accordance with the training routine, the reconnaissance platoon first shot out the bullets in the face, followed by the grenade suppression, and blew up this group of devils with flesh and blood, dead and wounded all over the place!

The veteran who ran out of bullets didn't care about changing the magazine, took out his pistol with his backhand and rushed to the front, and saw the figure shoot one by one without saying a word, and the rest of the soldiers who followed followed came up with bayonets to replenish their guns and knives one by one, and killed only a few of the Japanese soldiers in these two squads with three strikes and five divided by two!

Only three Japanese soldiers dragged behind the rear, fortunately dodging this one-sided killing, and hurriedly fled back with the help of cover.

At this time, the rest of the Japanese troops of the 1st Squadron were alarmed by the sound of gunfire and hurriedly dispersed and rushed into the buildings at the end of the village to defend themselves.

The whole process was five minutes at best, and the reconnaissance platoon did not give a damn about what killed the Japanese soldiers, and continued to rush forward by stepping on their corpses and blood! Halfway through, they quickly changed their magazines to replenish their ammunition, and the thirty or so men spread out an extremely loose skirmish line and approached the edge of the village like a whirlwind.

Big trees and houses grind straw stacks ditch...... Behind various natural bunkers, the figures of Japanese soldiers in black clothes and black hats dodged into view. Seeing the personnel pressing into the firing boundary, they hurriedly opened fire to intercept them, but the sound of popping beans and the smoke of gunpowder passed. There was not a single corpse in sight in front of him.

The soldiers of the reconnaissance platoon were slippery one by one. Where will they be given time to aim? Advancing with the help of bunker obstacles is what they are most proficient in. Without waiting for the Japanese bullets to come, he took the first step to dodge.

The whole platoon quickly gathered, needless to say, immediately divided into two groups to explore the two wings, and soon the rapid firing of assault rifles and semi-automatic rifles made the Japanese army mistakenly think that at least one platoon or even more troops touched the door, and they fired back frantically in panic!

After the First Sino-Japanese War, the equipment situation of the Japanese army has been significantly improved. In addition to the update of weapons and ammunition, the number of MANPADS has also "skyrocketed" from less than ten rounds to thirty! Furthermore, each brigade has a bonus of two water-cooled Maxim heavy machine guns. This firepower sustaining ability has been greatly strengthened.

The soldiers were also repeatedly taught by the commander that these precious ammunition were not easy to come by, which was saved by His Majesty the Emperor by eating only one meal a day, which was donated by the loyal citizens of the whole country, and by tens of thousands of Yamato Nadeshiko who went out to sell meat in exchange, and borrowed it as collateral for the future of the people of the entire empire!

Every time you shoot, you have to aim at the enemy, and every time you pull the trigger, you have to think about how precious the bullet is, and how much meaning and mission it carries!

The low-class Japanese soldiers with tendons don't even think about whether this thing is fooling or not. They don't even ask anything, they choose to believe. And assiduously train the skills of killing the enemy with one shot, plus the tactics of fighting bayonets in hand-to-hand combat.

Now, finally on the battlefield, I can serve the emperor, kill the enemy for the empire, and set foot on the vast attached land of China, one by one, the excitement is surging and irrepressible, and the fighting momentum is full of blood vessels almost without encouragement.

But after the gunshots rang out, what training, what instructions, what burdens and what missions, all were thrown out of the clouds! The rain of bullets in their faces overturned the heads of their companions from time to time, and the screams of blood splattered from the broken heads shattered their minds, and they almost subconsciously shot the bullets out!

The sound of "bang-bang" single-shot shots converged, and the Murata Type 22 8mm and 6.5mm Tomosaka rounds were mixed, and the chirp screamed through the air, constantly banging on the scout's surrounding bunkers.

The veterans who touched the temptation pouted disdainfully, and dared to run to our house to find fault at this level? Look for death!

After the initial bullet was fired, after avoiding the hurried counterattack of the Japanese army, he immediately moved to the side, calmly loaded the bullets and switched to the single-shot sniper mode, and suppressed the Japanese soldiers who fought the most with the speed of fire at a distance of less than 100 meters.

Carrying at least 150 rounds of ammunition per soldier was standard for the revolutionary army, and machine gunners carried more. After mutual distribution, it is enough to ensure more than 200 rounds per person - this is still in a state of light and rapid marching.

So even if there is only a five-person combat team, it can still calmly shoot a terrifying and terrifying bullet density!

During World War II, the U.S. Army's two M1 Garlanders could suppress an entire Japanese infantry squad, and now one assault rifle plus four semi-automatic ten-round rounds, loose formation shooting at close range made the Japanese army on this side of the head foggy and did not know how many enemies they faced!

As a result, under the pressure of a strong attack from three sides, the entire squadron of the Japanese army was pulled out and thrown into the defense line to participate in the firefight. The reconnaissance platoon on the front reacted extremely keenly, judging the limits of the Japanese army, and the platoon commander immediately gave an order: "Attract firepower from the front, attack on both flanks, and beat them out!" ”

The villages stuck in the offensive passage are natural fortification groups. Whoever occupies it first will be able to form a breakthrough advantage of up to a kilometer or even greater against the enemy.

The reconnaissance platoon immediately drew out several combat groups to strengthen to the two flanks, and the frontal was suppressed by machine guns, and the Japanese could not even take a step forward. In this way, more fighters who were outflanked on both sides took advantage of the gap that had been probed and rushed into the village, using grenades and pistols to storm and kill dozens of Japanese soldiers who were shooting forward one after another!

The Japanese were not familiar with the characteristics of rural Chinese architecture, and even if there were spies who had gathered information before, it was almost impossible for them to figure it out in the face of the huge territory and complex and changing customs. On the other hand, the soldiers of the revolutionary army have been operating here for a long time, and many locals have joined the army, and every street, alley and even the main houses of the village as a preset battlefield are clear.

Know yourself and your opponent, and make a judgment! The remaining Japanese troops were caught off guard and retreated in panic, and the defensive line was crumbling. When Tada Zhengzhi's order was passed on, more than 100 of them were actually squeezed into a landlord's compound, relying on a thick rammed earth wall. What a counterattack and encirclement, I can't even get out of the door!

But fortunately, another squadron also rushed up to reinforce it, and hundreds of people are quite a lot for a village. The reconnaissance platoon immediately left half of its personnel to continue to suppress, and the other half intercepted on the spot with the help of construction, and at the same time called for immediate reinforcements from the rear forces through the Guò radio.

The infantry company, which was only one step slower, was not far behind them! The gunshots exploded here, and he immediately changed direction and rushed with all his might, almost rushing to the village in no particular order with the Japanese reinforcements, but he didn't even save the effort to get in, and directly separated two detours to the front, and he was bold enough to come to a big bag!

An infantry company, plus a reconnaissance platoon, actually went to outflank a Japanese squadron and a half! If this is placed in this world, it will definitely scare the glasses of countless people.

But here, the revolutionary soldiers did not feel that there was anything wrong, and the facts also proved that when they set up their machine guns on each flank and fired wildly, the Japanese troops fell like straws, and it was not a confrontation at all, but a one-sided massacre! (To be continued......)
