Looking horizontally, the offensive formation of the devils is three lines, the front is the skirmish line, and the devils of a small team, combined in three or three, cover each other alternately in a triangle. In the center are three infantry groups, one on the left, one on the right, and on the Zuihou side are fire support squads armed with mortars and heavy machine guns.

Viewed longitudinally, the devil is in an inverted triangle on the front, less than a hundred meters wide, with the infantry of the entire squad on the two wings and the three corners of the zuihou, and between the three points are squad-sized groups of the other two squads.

Yang Bangzi also noticed that the devil squadron spread out, and also strengthened the strength of a squad, which was placed in zuihou with the heavy weapons supporting the infantry.

This is not new, the devil wants to no matter what point, once he breaks through the opponent's forward position, he will quickly put this team into the open gap, cut the opponent's complete defense, and disrupt the rear support.

Seeing the formation and scale of the devil's attack clearly, Yang Bangzi immediately called over the platoon commander of the fire support platoon, and the buddy was very excited, so he came over and said, "Captain Yang, what's the matter?" Is it going to be a cannon again? "I haven't had fun in the artillery battle just now!

"the butt! There are only a few shells left, save some use! Lao Tzu wants to ask you, do you still have any explosives we brought? ”

The platoon commander was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied that there are still a lot, what is the use? Yang Bangzi pointed to the highway between the high ground of the fort and the earth cliff and said: "See, the gap in the road, you kid take a few people, immediately bury a few bundles of explosives on both sides of the ditch, cover more stone slabs or something, and listen to Lao Tzu's command in a while!" ”

The platoon commander of this fire support platoon loves to tinker with artillery and gunpowder. Mines or something. As soon as you hear it, you will understand. This is to plant improvised anti-infantry mines, and lead people to plant explosives.

The speed of the attacking devils was a little slow, and from the place where they crossed the river beach and were about a kilometer away from the top of the mountain, they set up a formation, still climbed the mountain, and advanced 400 meters after half a day.

It is estimated that he was frightened by the artillery of the Eighth Route just now, and he did not dare to move too much and run too fast, for fear of attracting the shelling of the Eighth Road.

Yang Bangzi didn't put this guy at ease. He had a few shells left that he had other uses, and he didn't want to use them at all.

The devil stopped at a place of about 600 meters and did not move, Yang Bangzi hurriedly let it go down one by one, the forward position was withdrawn to the shelter, and the main position on the ridge paid attention to the anti-artillery.

Sure enough, the forward positions were withdrawn into the shelter, and the devil's small cannons and grenadiers were beckoned, and five rounds of projectiles were fired in one breath, and the forward positions on the Chai Split Ridge from the main peak to the north slope were full of smoke and dust, and the devils had calculated it. Those who came up and hit directly were all the parts they thought were critical.

From the third round of shelling, the infantry began to move up the ridge. The infantry groups on the left and right flanks advanced the fastest, the left flank had reached a point more than 300 meters below the road pass, and the right flank had also reached a place less than 400 meters below the broken artillery tower.

After five rounds of shelling, the skirmishers of the devils also advanced 200 meters, and the support units in the rear also followed up halfway up the slope.

There was no movement on the Eighth Road position except for the smoke that slowly dissipated, let alone a human figure, and there was no rabbit shadow!

The devil is very patient and knows the opponent very well, and knows that the Eighth Route will never waste bullets, and will never fire less than 100 meters, so the devil set up the small cannon and grenadier barrels step by step, and according to the eight-way fire point he envisioned, it was another 5 rounds of shelling.

This time, the devils on the two lines did not move as fast, and the devils on the left and right only advanced a hundred meters, and then stopped, the machine guns were mounted, and the infantry lay down and did not leave.

In the middle of the skirmish line, every 20 meters or so of the trio, they stopped to observe for a while, and then did a sideways maneuver, and then stopped to wait and see after advancing 20 meters, just like that, after two shellings, the vanguard of the devil front had reached a place about 200 meters away from the Eighth Route position.

There was still no movement on the hill and the mountain beams on both sides, and the three-man combat team of the skirmish line maneuvered another 50 meters, firing a few shots in the lying and kneeling positions, and the machine gun team that followed up also swept two shuttle bullets, but there was still no movement!

Another xiangshang maneuver 50 meters! The craters left on the hill during the artillery battle just now can be seen clearly! The black mud that had been blown up by the shells was piled up on the hillside that had collapsed, and the choking smell of gunpowder had not yet dissipated.

The devil commander halfway up the mountain couldn't hold it back, and commanded the fire support and reserves to go up to 400 meters, drew his battle knife, and before the mortars were ready, he ordered the infantry to attack!

100 meters, 80 meters, 60 meters, 40 meters too! The weeds on the hill that remained in the artillery fire are clearly branched out in the eyes of the devil!

"Smack! Syllable! "Shots are finally ringing out on the hill! The devils are relieved, there is no need to worry about it now, it is full of doubts, it turns out that there are eight roads on the mountain!

It's not like there's nothing to worry about! Especially behind the middle skirmish line, the squad leader who supervised the battle and the squadron leader who wielded the war knife, one was pierced through the chest by a bullet, and the other was broken by a bullet! This 7-point 92mm bullet of the 81-style is more powerful than the 6.5mm bullet of the 38-style type!

If you are hit by a Type 38 rifle bullet at a distance of 200 meters and 300 meters, you will generally wear two holes in the opposite hole, and most of them will not die if they are not hit in the head, neck and chest. But the Bayi-style bullet hit a big hole, and the bullet was still rolling in the wound, so the squad leader who was hit in the chest was killed by one shot, and the squadron leader was no better, and his arm was blown off alive!

As soon as the gunshot rang out, the devil's movements were fast enough, and he did not lie down or hesitate, but accelerated the pace of the charge, wanting to jump into the crater, and use the crater to assault the top of the mountain.

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel! A group of grenades swept like sparrows, 80% of which exploded above the heads of the devils who climbed the slopes, and the power of the border area is not good, and it is still a good thing if it is used skillfully!

This is the order given by Yang Stick when he was lying there watching the devil make tactical maneuvers, and after the grenade pulled the string, he would count three and then throw it over!

After the explosion of dozens of grenades in the air, the shrapnel woven net is quite rewarding! As soon as the net went down, the dozen or so devils who ran at the front turned into blood gourds from head to toe!

The remaining dozen or so people jumped into the crater by luck, and just wanted to catch their breath and stick out their guns to shoot back, when grenades fell from under their feet!

Little devil, do you measure the distance or something, are the eight roads all fools? The first wave of grenades blew up the skull, and the second wave was to clean up the goods that you gang had entered the pit, and the grenades that exploded under the soles of your feet blew up the devils and screamed, and the dirt stained with blood and minced flesh scattered one by one.

The machine-gun support team that followed closely behind was shrewd, and as soon as they saw that the grenade was coming down, they immediately lay down on the spot, and suddenly strafed it, but they only made a cloud of dirt and broken stones, and did not see the person who threw the grenade!

I can still let you see it, I can't let you see it until 40 meters, this is all thrown by the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army behind the hillside, and the soldiers on the top of the mountain are still there! Seeing that the skirmishers at the head were almost cleaned up, Yang Stick gave the order to use fire against the soldiers in the central position to suppress the devils on the hillside.

The central offensive was thwarted, several groups on the front line almost all died in grenade explosions, machine guns and remnants of infantry hid under the corpses of their own companions, and their heads suppressed by the fire from the mountains could not be lifted!

The disabled squadron leader halfway up the mountain was still hard-boned, gritted his teeth and did not retreat, seeing that the forward was suppressed, he immediately ordered fire support, and the devil's small artillery and heavy machine guns returned fire on the eight-way position exposed on the hill like a wind.

The front-line infantry on both sides was too close, and if you count the dying devils in the shell crater, it was about 30 meters away, and the gunners of the devils did not dare to aim directly at the top of the mountain, for fear that they would accidentally injure their own people if there was an error or something, and the projectile either fell behind the mountain, or hit the middle of the infantry on both sides.

The heavy machine guns played a greater role than the small cannons, and the two Type 92s fired hundreds of rounds without stopping their breath, and the machine guns and rifles that had just been fired on the hill were silent, and no more grenades flew over.

As soon as the hill was suppressed, the two small groups of devils on the left and right flanks who had not moved immediately got up and quickly maneuvered, the left wing went straight to the highway pass, and the right wing made a lateral detour to the position where the gunshots had just been heard.

The reserve, which was guarding around the artillery and heavy machine guns, also began to advance towards the central position that had been blocked. From time to time, there was a sparse sound of gunfire on the mountain, and it sounded like there were really not a few guns, but the devil would just think about attacking, ignoring one thing, these gunshots that rang out from time to time were accurate enough! Almost one shot at a time!

The devils on the left flank ran the fastest, and when there were still dozens of meters away from the pass, they all lay down, and the grenadiers and machine guns fired at both sides of the pass for several minutes, and the two infantry also threw two long-handled grenades with great effort, and with two loud bangs, two large clouds of smoke rose on both sides of the pass, and the devils jumped up and rushed to the pass!

Up to this point, the slope on the left and the direction of the pass were a stagnant place compared to the bustling central location! The devils rushed to the pass, and were about to turn to the position of the turret on the middle hillside, when a military cao with a plaster flag on his rifle suddenly noticed that green smoke was waving from the stones piled up on the side of the road!

"Boom! Rumble! "Two loud noises that were much more deafening than the explosion of the devil's long-handled grenade covered up the gunfire on the entire battlefield at once! Black smoke, yellow smoke, and white smoke are mixed together, and the smoke column is sprayed far away! The crumbling gravel flew out more than a mile!

The palm of the dead man's hand that was half pulled by the explosion fell halfway up the mountain, and it happened to land on the steel helmet of the leader of the devil squadron, startling him, and he thought it was a grenade from the eighth road, but when he saw that it was a bloody palm, his face, which was already bloody, was instantly dark and blue!
