Chapter 38: The Battle of Xinghe County: The Total Annihilation of the Honda United (2)

Approaching and getting closer, the Japanese soon entered the range of the defenders, but there was still no movement in the trenches of the Chinese army.

Shinichi Honda, who had been fighting with the security regiment for two days, had a certain understanding of the tactics of the opposing Shina troops, and at a distance of two hundred meters, the Chinese army generally did not shoot, and even if they did, the hit rate was not high, so they would put the attacking enemy closer before fighting.

150 meters, 120 meters, 100 meters

When the main force of Fujita's brigade had entered the opponent's forward position less than 100 meters, only a crisp gunfire could be heard from the opposite position, judging by the experience of many years of military career, this was issued by the Mauser pistol, which seemed to be the main rifle worn by the officers of the Chinese army.

"Da Da Da"

"Da Da Da"

With this gunshot, the Chinese troops on the opposite side finally reacted, and to Honda's surprise, the position of Zhina, which was still full of holes just now, suddenly changed dramatically at this time, and a heavy machine gun seemed to suddenly come out, blocking all the previous shooting dead ends.

The madness of the Japanese army was unquestionable, and although the two flanks could not be detoured, and the frontal passage was completely blocked by the Chinese army, the Japanese still launched a desperate charge against the Chinese army.

"Da Da Da"

Machine gunner Wang Huzi stared at the little devil not far away with blood-red eyes, and his fingers kept pulling the trigger. To be honest, he was very nervous and even a little scared before the battle began. There were also rumors about the image of the little devil in the army before, it is said that this little devil has a blue face and fangs, a big head like a bucket, a bloody tongue, and a mouth can bite a person to death.

But since the night before yesterday, the troops have continued to receive good news, first eliminating an infantry squad of little devils and a company of the puppet army, and then killing two artillery brigades of little devils, and then the three battalions of grandsons actually fought hard with five or six thousand little devils for a whole day, and I heard that the stone Buddha Temple was full of corpses of little devils.

Before today's battle, the battalion commander also said that last night, the gang of cattle in the special combat team attacked the arsenal of the little devil and killed the senior officer of the little devil, I heard that it was an officer who was even bigger than the commander. Not only did Chairman Fu Zuoyi send a commendation order, but even Yan Dashuai, who was far away in Taiyuan, also sent a commendation telegram to the commander, hearing that he was going to be promoted to a major general, and gave tens of thousands of oceans, which made the brothers itch in their hearts, and secretly said that this little devil was too unbeaten.

At the beginning of the morning battle, the little devil sent a small two hundred people to participate in the battle, and for the first time I saw the legendary little devil big guy, what a green face and fangs, what a head as big as a fight, in front of a short man with a circle of legs, the head is not small, wearing a yellow dog skin, and a large bullet is alive.

I still fell down and couldn't get up, what the hell. In the first round of counterattack, Wang Huzi relied on the heavy machine gun in his hand to kill more than 20 devils. Seeing that the little devil who was shot was like a deflated ball, Wang Huzi was so happy in his heart, and the hand that pulled the trigger couldn't help but become diligent.

The distance of 100 meters was like a death chasm, and no matter how the Japanese army charged, the battle line seemed to be fixed there, and did not move forward.

Fujita Shaoza's lungs are about to explode, the cunning Shina people, greatly cunning, in the first round of attack, they did not expose all the firepower points, and waited until the Imperial Imperial Army was about to approach the position of the Zhina, which caught the Imperial Army off guard, and the shooting dead ends that were found to be good were like traps, swallowing a large number of Imperial troops.

"Order all the Imperial Alliance troops to go to the front, and those who dare to retreat will all die." Fujita Shaosa said loudly.

In order to defeat the Chinese army faster and more effectively, Fujita Shaoza only transferred more than 200 people from the puppet army's cavalry division to assist in the attack. It's not that Fujita Shaozo cares about the lives of these puppet soldiers, and a guy like him doesn't even care about his own life, so how can he care about other people's lives.

The reason why all the puppet armies are not put in front like other troops is entirely because Fujita Ichiro does not look down on the combat effectiveness of these puppet armies at all, and thinks that in such a battlefield, these puppet armies have no role except for causing chaos to the Imperial Japanese Army, and to put it bluntly, they are not even qualified to become cannon fodder of the Imperial Japanese Army.

I thought that I had found a hole in the defense of the Chinese army, but I did not expect to be attacked by the Chinese army suddenly, and the department suffered heavy losses in the attack just now, three infantry squadrons and a machine gun squadron were brutally knocked out by a third, and even the wounded who fell in front of the position did not have time to be transported, and the troops were repulsed.

Fujita Ichiro was a man who refused to admit defeat, and although the second attack was repulsed, he quickly organized a third attack, this time ordering all the puppet troops to rush to the front, and the Japanese army to follow behind.

Fujita Shaoza's idea was simple, he only needed to move his troops in front of the trenches of the Chinese army, he had to use his bayonet to let these hateful Shina people know that all the resisters would be crushed by the chariots of the Great Japanese Empire. Since the Chinese army turned this 100-meter distance into a death line with heavy machine guns, then let the useless Imperial Allied troops open the way in front, and their only role was to use their bodies to block bullets for the Imperial Japanese Army until they stormed the positions of the Chinese people.

How can the puppet soldiers not see the intentions of the Japanese army, but how can people not bow their heads under the eaves, originally they were poked in the back by people when they were puppet soldiers, and they were scolded as traitors or traitors. However, the commanders above have all taken refuge in the Japanese, and what can they do can only obediently change into this yellow dog skin.

On weekdays, it's just that they are beaten and scolded and not looked at as people, and when they go to the battlefield, they are used as cannon fodder and cheap shields that don't want money, and all the puppet soldiers regret it in their hearts, and their intestines are repentant.

But what can be done, the Japanese army's bright bayonets are fixed on the back, if they go slowly, it will be a heart-to-heart, and now their situation is to advance or retreat, or to retreat, a dead knot!

The ammunition was loaded, the trigger was pulled, such a dense formation, such a fatal fight order The security regiment that fought with the Japanese army for the first time was extremely shocking, and some soldiers could no longer pull the trigger while fighting, for nothing, because their psychological defense line collapsed, and they could not accept the fact that so many people were killed in such a short time.

Soon after the battle began, Chen Feng came to the forward position, and everything under the telescope was unobstructed. Seeing that the puppet soldiers who rushed in front were defeated one by one, and the others seemed to be unaffected and continued to rush forward, and then more people were knocked down, seeing this scene, Chen Feng's heart was honest.

Sorrow, the sorrow of the people, the sorrow of the nation. As an old professor said, the Japanese are not invincible, and the past glories they are clamoring for, especially those glorious military achievements during World War II, are only products of a specific era background, and it was China at that time that provided them with such a platform.

Many people believe that the reason why the Japanese army was unscrupulous in Asia during World War II was that it had a strong combat capability, and with a small number of troops, they were able to get involved in East and Southeast Asia and create many amazing achievements.

But in fact, the comprehensive combat capability of the Japanese army was very average, and it was easily repulsed by the Soviet army at Nomenkan and suffered heavy losses. On Kuah Island, they made it impossible for the U.S. military to fight north, and the casualties were five times that of the U.S. military. In northern Burma, facing the Kuomintang New 1st Army, which had American-style equipment, the casualties were 7:1. The million-dollar Kwantung Army, known as the most elite of the Japanese army, was even beaten by the Soviet Union to the point of losing its armor.

Regarding the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, Chen Feng has a criterion in his heart, that is, they are stronger than the Chinese army, first of all, the large army is stronger than the troops including the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army and various warlords led by the Central Army of the Central Government, and at the same time, it is also stronger than the vast majority of the Central Army of the Nationalist Government.

However, in the battle sequence of the Central Army of the Nationalist Government, there are many units that can compete with the elite of the Japanese army, which means that the Japanese army is only a little stronger than the Chinese army, and it is far from being a first-class army in the world. What can compete with the United States and the Soviet Union is nonsense.

When it comes to the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, there are always some people who exaggerate the actual combat effectiveness of the Japanese army during World War II, intentionally or unintentionally increasing the prestige of others and destroying their own morale. It is true that the combat capability of the Chinese army is inferior to that of the Japanese army, and this is almost a foregone conclusion. In the Henan Campaign in the Battle of Henan-Xianggui, the Japanese army once set an astonishing record of defeating a mobile brigade and defeating a division of Tang Enbo. With hundreds of thousands of troops, the Japanese army swept through most of China, and at that time, the total number of troops of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in China exceeded 4 million. This seems to confirm that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is very amazing. However, judging from many historical facts, it is more appropriate for the Japanese army in World War II to be included in the second-rate on the whole.

It is a shame to say that most of the most glorious achievements of the Japanese army during World War II were achieved in battles with the Chinese army. In the four and a half years prior to Pearl Harbor, the Japanese army had fought a total of 28 major battles in the Chinese theater, and the Chinese army was almost crushed, losing major cities and communication lines in the central and eastern regions.

However, this was a product of the special background of the times, when China's internal political contradictions were acute, the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was fierce, Chiang Kai-shek lacked the actual control of the local warlords, and the local factions were in their own ways, and China was simply unable to pool its strength to fight the Japanese army. Moreover, the Japanese army has been preparing for the invasion of China for many years. In terms of equipment and training, it was a grade higher than that of the Chinese army at that time.

In addition, it is precisely because of their existence that the Japanese army will win before fighting in spirit, while the Chinese army will be greatly affected in terms of momentum. Therefore, the puppet army is the sorrow of the people of this era, and it is also the sorrow of our nation.
