Volume 1: The Battle of Songhu Chapter 29 The road to the enemy is narrow
When Gao Shenxing rushed to the east gate with more than 200 veterans, he happened to see the tragic scene of Zuihou, in the face of the tide of Japanese cavalry, the six surviving soldiers of the third company and the second platoon of Zuihou pulled bundles of grenades, and several huge clouds of smoke and dust rose from the position in an instant, and the six soldiers and several Japanese cavalry were swallowed up by the smoke and dust produced by the explosion in an instant.
However, the cavalry of the small Japanese did not suffer much losses, a cavalry squadron of more than 120 cavalry, only about 10 cavalry was lost, and the remaining 100 cavalry was slightly reunited, and rushed towards the city gate again.
"Heavy machine gun platoon, ready to shoot" The Japanese cavalry surged like a tide, and the sound of countless iron hooves hitting the ground was like a drumbeat, which could break people's hearts, but there was no trace of expression on Gao Shenxing's face, and when the two heavy machine guns were set up outside the city gate, the raised right hand fell coldly, and the two Makqin heavy machine guns suddenly let out a low roar, and the two dazzling tongues of fire had swept towards the surging Japanese cavalry like a whirlwind.
Cavalry has been the king of the battlefield since its birth, it is precisely because of the emergence of heavy machine guns, so that the cavalry from the battlefield dominate to the auxiliary troops, in the face of heavy machine guns ferocious, dense bullet rain, the huge cavalry almost has no power to parry, in an instant, the Japanese cavalry array of people turned on their backs.
However, little Japan is also really fierce, and it charges forward against the machine guns.
Little Japan's move seemed crazy, but it was actually the right choice, because the Japanese army was only less than 400 meters away from the national army, and under the full speed of the war horse, it was less than half a minute, and the national army only had two Makqin heavy machine guns, and it could only shoot 600 rounds of ammunition in half a minute with full firepower, and it was impossible to intercept the cavalry charge with such a little firepower.
And once the Japanese cavalry rushed in front of them, the national army was left with only the share of being slaughtered.
However, this time the little Japanese obviously miscalculated, when the small Japanese cavalry entered within two hundred meters, Gao Shenxing's raised right hand fell again, and then twenty veterans carrying flower traps came out of the crowd, lined up in front of the position, and opened fierce fire on the surging Japanese cavalry, and in an instant, the small Japanese cavalry was swallowed up by the dense submachine gun fire.
In just 20 seconds, more than 100 Japanese cavalry were basically stacked down, only Liao Liao more than ten cavalry rushed to the front of the national army, and was soon annihilated by the swarming veterans of the national army.
The battle soon ended, and the Nationalist army began to clean up the battlefield.
Li Mu took a platoon to the position of the third company and the second platoon, he held a short-handled bayonet in his back, coldly stabbed two wounded Japanese soldiers who were wailing to death on the spot, and moved a dead war horse with the help of another veteran, but unexpectedly found a national soldier under the belly of the war horse, and the big-headed soldier stared at him in a stunned manner.
Li Mu stretched out his hand to probe and found that the big-headed soldier was still breathing
"Company commander, there's still a living one here," Li Mu suddenly shouted in surprise.
Gao Shenxing came over and opened his eyelids and looked at them, and said, "I guess I was stupid, so hurry up and send the medical team." ”
"You're stupid." When the words fell, the soldier rolled his eyes and cursed, and when he was done, he began to dig the soil like crazy, and he didn't realize the blood until he was digging five times, and he howled and cried while digging the soil, "Platoon commander, platoon commander ......"
Soon, the soldier pulled out a finger from the soil, then a slap, then a small arm, then a thigh...... Watching the soldier put together a severed limb and stump, trying to put it together, Li Mu and the dozen or so veterans present all looked sad, and vaguely, they also recalled when they were still recruits.
Gao Shenxing recognized the Oriental knife between the severed limbs and stumps at a glance, it was an adjutant knife, and it was impossible for a junior officer to appear among the cavalry of small Japan, so this could only be the adjutant knife that Xu Nineteen gave to Ergua, and only Ergua had an adjutant knife among the more than 1,000 people in the entire nineteenth brigade, and it was also a saber given by the Japanese emperor.
Recalling the first time they met, Gao Shenxing dismantled the box cannon in front of Gao Maniac, and Ergua, who was sitting on the side eating cakes, was stunned, and was stunned yesterday, I never thought that Ergua was killed on the battlefield today, Rao is Gao Shenxing is used to seeing life and death, and at this moment he couldn't help but feel sorry, and took off his military hat and bowed to Ergua's body.
Seeing that the soldier was still crying there, Gao Shenxing picked up the adjutant knife and stuffed it into his arms, and shouted: "Don't cry, your platoon commander is a good example, don't fall into the prestige of your platoon commander This adjutant knife is given to you, remember to kill a few more devils on the battlefield in the future, don't disappoint your platoon commander." ”
The donkey took the knife and nodded stunned.
After all the battles in Shanxian were over, several company commanders returned to the brigade headquarters one after another.
Gao Shenxing, Zhang Youquan and Shu Tongwen all pulled their faces, especially Zhang Youquan, who didn't have a good face, this night attack on Shanxian County belonged to his second company that fought poorly, not only killed and injured more than 100 officers and soldiers, if it wasn't for Gao Shenxing's company to come to support, I'm afraid that the county office has not been beaten yet, this face is really embarrassing.
Among the several company commanders, only Hu Jie was happy, and he walked with the wind, and he couldn't be happy if he wanted to, because he found four Type 92 infantry guns plus seven MM caliber mortars in the arsenal, and they were brand new, and with these eleven guns, his artillery company was no longer an ornament.
"Captain, you've made a fortune, you've really made a fortune this time." As soon as Hu Jie entered the door, he shouted, "There are thousands of 38 covers and hundreds of light and heavy machine guns in the arsenal, all of which are newly manufactured firearms, the oil has not been wiped, and there are melon grenades, and the bullets are even more uncountable, as well as 500 shells for 92 infantry guns and 800 rounds of mortar shells of mm caliber , in addition to 1,000 rounds of 75mm caliber field artillery shells and 400 rounds of 10m caliber field artillery shells." ”
"What are you talking about, and 10m caliber field artillery shells?" Xu Nineteen was a little stunned.
Except for the Guards Division and the Dipei Regiment, which had heavy artillery brigades under the jurisdiction of the 17 permanent divisions and regiments of Little Japan, the other permanent divisions and regiments only had one artillery wing, and the standard equipment was 75mm guns (horse divisions) or 75mm mountain guns (pack horse divisions), and only a few permanent divisions and regiments were equipped with some 10m caliber field artillery.
This is also because Little Japan's resources are too few and its industrial base is too thin, and it would have been equipped with 105mm guns or even Um guns long ago, otherwise all the 17 permanent divisions of Little Japan would have been equipped with 105mm guns or even Um guns.
For example, the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, which committed a lot of bloody crimes in Nanjing, the commander of the division, Nakajima Imago Zaogo, was equipped with 34 75mm caliber field guns and 10m caliber field guns.
"That's right, it's a 10m caliber field artillery shell." Hu Jie said firmly, "Four hundred rounds." ”
Xu Nineteen said thoughtfully: "So, it is very likely that we have inadvertently terminated the forward base of a permanent division of the Japanese army?" As he spoke, Xu Shijiu's eyes fell on the map, and from the map, the Japanese army attacked and advanced from Jining to Fengxian along the highway through Jinxiang and Shanxian, and it was reasonable to leave the advance base in Shanxian.
Gao Shenxing said: "Captain, what we have destroyed is the forward base of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army. ”
As he spoke, Gao Shenxing handed a small notebook to Xu 19, Xu 19 took it and looked at it, but it was the military ID of an officer of the Japanese army, which read "Commander Cao of the 4th Squadron of the L Brigade of the 38th Infantry Wing of the 16th Division of the Great Japanese Empire, Xiaoshan Zhi", and the defenders of Dare Qing Shan County are the two infantry squadrons of the 38th Infantry Wing.
"The 38th Infantry Wing?" Xu Shijiu frowned and said, "Why do you feel a little familiar?" ”
Gao Shen said: "It was this infantry dR wing that pursued us all the way in the city of Nanjing. ”
"It turned out to be this little Japan," Xu Shijiu said with a cruel smile, "Hehe, this is really a narrow road." ”
At the beginning in the city of Nanjing, Xu 19 and Gao Shenxing were chased and killed by the 38th Infantry Wing, if it weren't for the fact that the military police commander Gu Zhenglun repaired the tunnel in the warehouse, the two of them were afraid that they would have confessed a long time ago, Zuihou escaped, Yao Nianci and Yu Jiaxi still died in the hands of Little Japan, thinking of Yu Jiaxi, Xu 19 felt a faint pain in his heart.
"The 38th Infantry Wing?" Xu Jiu muttered and drew a curve on the map with a pencil.
A curve can be drawn, Xu Shijiu's thinking became clear, a pair of eyes lit up, and he said to several company commanders at the moment: "Shanxian County, as the advance base of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, is only garrisoned by two infantry squadrons, and these two infantry squadrons are not yet formed, what does this mean?" ”
Zhang Youquan frowned and said, "Could it be that Little Japan's troops are seriously insufficient?" ”
Shu Tongwen shook his head and said: "No, no matter how short the Japanese army is, it is no problem to draw out an infantry brigade." ”
"Then there's only one explanation." Gao Shenxing said coldly, "The 16th Division of the Japanese Army didn't take our national army into account at all, and the old devil Nakajima Jinchao didn't worry about his back at all, leaving only two infantry squadrons to protect the advance base, but he went straight to Xuzhou with the main force of the division." ”
"Can't you?" Zhang Youquan retorted, "Little Japan just suffered a big loss in Taierzhuang, can't you be so careless?" ”
Gao Shen said: "It was the 10th Division of small Japan that suffered a big loss in Taierzhuang, the 16th Division has never suffered defeat since it set foot on the Chinese battlefield, after the Qiqi Lugou Bridge Incident, the 16th Division easily defeated Wan Fulin's 53rd Army along the Baoding and Zhengding lines, and in the Battle of Nanjing, the 16th Division landed at Baimaokou on the Yangtze River, and basically did not suffer decent resistance. ”
Xu 19 said: "Nakajima I don't know the strength of our national army, arrogant and light the enemy is certain, but no matter how arrogant this old devil is, he will never leave only two infantry squadrons stationed in Shan County, if I guess correctly, the 38th Infantry Wing of Little Japan should have been stationed in Shan County, but I didn't know that because of Weishenme, I suddenly went to Feng County, which caused the garrison of Shan County to be empty, and gave our 19th Brigade the opportunity to take advantage of the void." ”
