Chapter 558: Stealing Chickens Doesn't Make Rice
"Haha, it seems that the previous training is still useful, if it weren't for this bullet avoidance slot, then I'm afraid we would have lost a lot. But if we can throw it over, why can't we throw it back? I guess there's a chance to throw it back, right? One of the recruits said.
Because these American grenades are detonated with a fuse, unlike the kind of grenades that were blown up by the touch of later generations. The grenades of this period used a fuse, and then the fuse would explode after the fuse burned out. But when they arrived, the grenades were all blown up, and they exploded as soon as they landed. However, the bump fuse was not so easy to invent, and this method of leading is now used. This method of leading can generally burn for seven seconds, and there are many times when the grenade is thrown out that it will not burn out immediately, so some veterans can also take the opportunity to pick up the grenade and throw it back again.
However, this is something that only a few veterans can do.
"Idiot, do you think it's easy to throw the grenade back? The grenade is thrown back in a series of actions, and it takes about three or four seconds from finding, picking up, aiming, and throwing, and this time is very dangerous. The enemy has already used about three seconds, and if we use three seconds again, it is likely that there is only one second left, and we may not be able to have a chance at that time. What do we do if the enemy deliberately delays the grenade for three seconds and throws it again? At that time, it is impossible for us to throw it back, and it will be ourselves who will suffer at that time. ”
"So, in the training code, this kind of risk-taking behavior is definitely discouraged. Most of them are kicked or thrown into the bullet dodge slots, which can effectively avoid explosion damage, and if you risk throwing it back, it can be very dangerous. It doesn't matter if you're dead. If you kill your comrades, you will be guilty. What's more, the effect of a grenade may not be so great, so there is no need to be cheap. ”
The recruit didn't dare to say anything more, just looked at the battlefield in the distance.
"Don't shoot, keep the fire down, and make a look like the Americans think we're suffering heavy casualties." A company commander said.
Soon. Only one squad was firing at each connection, so that the firepower density of the entire Fifth Division's position was suddenly reduced to only one battalion or so, which made the Americans very excited, because they knew that they had succeeded.
"The whole army attacked, the Chinese have already suffered heavy casualties, and our whole army attacked. As long as we can break through their flanks, then we can give them a right hook and show them how good we are! Jared shouted excitedly.
But Da Shanyan sneered in the distance and said: "Idiot, if the Taiwanese are so easy to deal with." Then will our Great Japanese Empire still lose troops back then? ”
However, Dashan Yan did not remind them of the idea, let these Americans charge, and then hoped that they would consume their troops. Anyway, neither they nor the Americans are really all waymen, so they are also a group of robbers waiting to rob and share the spoils, and they all have their own ghosts in the process of robbery, and even hope to consume some more "comrades-in-arms" and then preserve their strength. For the future, when the spoils are divided, when the face is torn, there is capital to swallow it alone.
"The American army of tens of thousands has come up, and our artillery is ready!" Zhang Guifang said.
The artillery regiment of the Fifth Division immediately calibrated Zhu Yuan for the last time. Then the artillery had already started, the shells were stuffed into the barrels, and then they waited for the order from above.
"Let's put the American army close first, let the infantry kill the enemy first, and then wait for the Americans to retreat before opening fire." Zhang Guifang said.
"What? Shouldn't you shoot the enemy with artillery first, and then wait until you get close before you counterattack with machine guns and rifles? Someone asked puzzled.
Zhang Guifang immediately said; "If it's an ordinary enemy, then naturally there is no problem with this. But if it's an American. The order is naturally reversed. The Americans' will to fight is not as strong as that of other countries' armies, so we have to reverse it to be effective, otherwise if we fire too early, maybe the Americans will collapse too soon, and we won't be able to kill too many enemies. We count the Americans this time. It's a living force that wants to kill them, so naturally it's the other way around. ”
"I see, Master Zhang really has a level!" A staff officer said.
When more than 30,000 Americans poured into the positions of the Fifth Division, the soldiers of the Fifth Division did not open fire immediately, but waited for signal flares. And those Americans saw that there was not much artillery fire to hit themselves, and the enemy's rifle counterattack force was also sparse, obviously there was not much counterattack. This made the Americans feel very proud, because they knew that most of the Taiwanese troops had suffered heavy casualties from grenades just now. Know that in this kind of trench warfare, grenades will come back into play.
Since the invention of artillery, grenades have gradually encountered a cold winter and can no longer play a role on the battlefield. The grenade has become a neglected weapon, but now the Americans have suddenly used it, so that the Americans think that the Taiwanese will never think of using this weapon. Even their allies didn't think of this kind of weapon, so how could they Taiwanese be prepared, so they all thought that Taiwan had suffered heavy casualties under the blows of these grenades, and it should be impossible to fight back. So they consider themselves Americans to be heroes, heroes to defeat Taiwan.
"Rush!" American troops shouted.
"Light machine gun preparation, mortar preparation, look at the flares." said the commander of an infantry battalion.
Although it is not yet possible to get to the point where every squad is equipped with a light machine gun, every battalion has a company that can be equipped with light machine guns, so it is necessary to prepare light machine guns first. The light machine gun is an automatic weapon responsible for close suppression, and together with the battalion's machine gun company, this is a firearm for long-range support with a heavy machine gun. This time we should calculate the Americans, but we must calculate them as much as possible, so that we can kill and injure those Americans to the greatest extent.
"Smack!"
An orange-red flare was fired into the sky, indicating that fire had begun.
"Call me!" Many battalion and company commanders gave the same order at the same time.
"Dada......"
As machine guns and rifles opened fire at the same time, the Americans were immediately swept to the ground as if they were cutting wheat, and they had no idea that Taiwan would be able to counterattack. Just now, they all used grenades to blow up a large number of enemies, but now they are still so fierce that they are not allowed to live.
"Retreat, retreat!" The American officer shouted.
Soon, although two or three thousand enemies were killed in the first round of strafing, the more than 30,000 American troops immediately chose to retreat instead of continuing to fight desperately. And this situation makes many Taiwan military officers look down on it.
"Hey, what about claiming to be a Western power? Is that the level? Someone immediately said with great disdain.
"At this level, even the Spaniards are no opponent, this is the Americans, who are known as great powers? The U.S. Army, as expected, is not so good. If we had fired the cannon first, they might have run away and would not have been able to hit them. This kind of coward, I'm afraid I can't even charge in the face of artillery fire. Someone said right away.
The U.S. Army in this time and space has not been baptized by the Spanish-American War, so naturally it does not have the tenacious will to fight. Therefore, these American troops were also defeated in one battle, and they simply did not have any courage to continue fighting. They began to retreat, but they did not know that there was artillery waiting for them!
"Artillery brothers, shoot me and send off these American 'friends'!" The artillery commander shouted.
"Boom ......"
Artillery fire began to roar violently, and dozens of artillery pieces of the artillery regiment began to bombard the path of the retreat of the American troops. And at this time, the Americans just began to retreat to the rear, but they did not expect that the shells actually fell on their heads.
"How can the Chinese yo cannon? Why didn't they just use it? "Immediately an American soldier asked a very stupid question.
"Hurry up and retreat as soon as possible!" The American army shouted.
However, no matter how much the US troops shouted, they could not prevent the Taiwanese artillery from falling to the ground, and then set off bursts of explosions, and finally the US troops were blown away. However, the more the Americans were bombed, the more they retreated, because they knew that only by retreating to a safe place as soon as possible could they avoid being bombed.
"The artillery fire is extended, and then I have to blow them up! Let the Americans lose a lot! The artillery commander shouted.
The Americans kept retreating, and then the Americans paid a terrible price before retreating to safety.
"Lieutenant General Jared, we've lost 10,000 men!" Someone immediately counted the results and said.
"Lieutenant General Jared, this is also your American's new tactic? It seems that this time it is a chicken steal! Akashi Genjiro said.
"Genjiro Akashi, what do you mean by this?" American Lieutenant General Jared asked.
"It's okay, that is, who patted his chest just now and said that he would definitely be able to break through the position of the Taiwanese, but he didn't expect to steal chickens and rice. Well, I'm not talking about you, please don't get me wrong. It's like I've never misunderstood what you said about the yellow-skinned monkey referring to Sang and scolding Huai and saying that we are Japanese, I really don't mean that! Akashi Genjiro said.
"Akashi Genjiro, I'll fight with you!" Jared said angrily.
"Okay, stop arguing, the Americans have gone into battle, let's let the Japanese, you go to fight! In this battle, except for Italy and Austria-Hungary, all other countries will fight, and everyone will come in turn. Seymour and Muddy said. (To be continued......)
