Three hundred and sixty-five. The first battle of the skeleton team

Kiyoguchi Gozo obviously did not have much mental preparation for the sudden attack of the Chinese army.

The sound of gunfire was dense, and when I looked out, there was gunsmoke and fire everywhere.

A large number of Chinese soldiers had already burst in, and numerous battle groups, supported by the tanks that came in later, were constantly clearing the nearby Japanese troops.

"Baga" Qingkou Wusan scolded helplessly.

The surprise attack of the Chinese army was too sudden. Despite the fact that in the three days of fighting, the 65 Infantry Wing suffered great losses, the losses of the Chinese troops in Jiangjiacun were equally large, and Kiyoguchi Gozo did not think that the other side still had the ability to attack.

But what he didn't know was that what he had been holding on to in Jiangjiacun was not the main force of the Chinese army, but only a new army that had just been formed and entered the battlefield for the first time.

The real workhorse has now appeared!

And now what makes Qingkou three headaches is that he still has no way to retreat in such a chaotic situation!

His subordinates had asked Kiyoguchi to evacuate as soon as possible several times, but he had refused. It would be the greatest shame to leave behind your own soldiers and run away early.

Now, however, he has no best solution to his current predicament

When the skeleton team led by Wang Weiyi entered Jiangjia Village, his troops had already controlled one-third of the village.

The speed of the action surprised Wang Weiyi.

A Vickers tank was not far away, vigilantly monitoring the surroundings. Several soldiers, under the cover of this Vickers, had already cleared one of the enemy's positions.

"Brigade, west of the village. There was a Japanese machine-gun position, which was fought very fiercely, and the brothers rushed several times but could not rush to it. At this time, Li Lu hurriedly ran and said: "Moreover, I have observed, it seems to be a temporary artillery position of the Japanese."

"Artillery positions?" Wang Weiyi was stunned.

Artillery positions! Get rich!

"Truck, truck!" Wang Weiyi stopped a truck driving into the village, and the first one jumped up: "Werner." William, how many people can come up, how many people can come up! ”

Twenty or so Germans from the skeleton squad jumped into the car, and at the moment the car started. Wang Weiyi hadn't forgotten to shout: "Skeleton team, squad as a unit, run forward!" ”

The truck sped forward, and soon faced the frenzied machine-gun fire of the Japanese army. And on the truck. Werner also took control of a machine gun himself, and returned fire with heavy fire!

The truck stopped suddenly, and Wang Weiyi, who was the first to jump into the car, was also the first to jump out of the car, and a string of fire tongues of MP38 in his hand spat out.

Then the Germans on the truck jumped off one after another, seizing the vantage point at the first opportunity.

These Germans, although none of them had ever entered the real army. But many of them spent time in the Nazi stormtroopers. It is a paramilitary organization with a large number of former military personnel gathered in it.

Before the Nazis did not have their own armed forces. The Stormtroopers are a force they can rely on

Someone once said that if you change the stormtroopers into the Wehrmacht uniform, then they are real German soldiers!

Now, it's time for them to show off here!

The Germans took the initiative to divide into two combat squads, each with a light machine gun and three or four submachine guns, with two men in the back to provide ammunition and the rest grenadiers and melee fighters who would immediately engage in hand-to-hand combat if they rushed in.

Wang Weiyi felt a little familiar at first glance, but soon understood:

An improved trench assault squad!

Despite the lack of Pyros and BMX, this is another version of the Trench Assault Squad!

When Wang Weiyi invented this tactic, it was quickly popularized in the German army.

Even after the end of the war, such a mode of operation was never forgotten by the German army.

On the opposite side, the two Japanese heavy machine guns blocked the way forward, and the sniper positions they chose were also very good, making it difficult for the attackers to organize superior forces.

Moreover, what makes Wang Weiyi even more amazed is:

When the Japanese army was constructing this position, they had even thought about the possible tank assault in advance! Lots of obstacles to block the tank's advance!

Although in the previous battle, Wang Weiyi never used tank power to paralyze the enemy, but the Japanese still thought of this possibility!

On the opposite position, the light and heavy firepower, light and dark firepower of the Japanese army was extremely reasonable, and there was no shouting, only the silent gestures of the officers, and the soldiers intermittently, but never stopped.

Wang Weiyi sighed a little, and he didn't know how Lu Dao thought that in his time, movies and television, as long as the Chinese army charged, the Japanese army would be defeated. As soon as the machine guns of the Chinese army were fired, the Japanese would flee in confusion.

If the Japanese army is really so vulnerable, where will it take eight years to fight a full-scale war of resistance?

The Japanese army took Germany as its division, and its tactical concept and tactical literacy were far ahead of the Chinese army at that time, and this point on the battlefield would quickly turn into a huge advantage that could not be surpassed in the short term.

Fortunately, the Tiger Ben Guards Brigade met Wang Weiyi:

This skeletal baron who created countless advanced German ideas for warfare!

He was very clear about the attack of the Japanese army on the opposite side, and he knew where the advantages and disadvantages were.

Wang Weiyi's hand waved, and Werner quickly led his battle team to quietly move to the left. Then Wang Weiyi's right hand made a hollow fist shape, and the index finger pointed forward, and William appeared with three grenadiers!

They used Japanese Type 89 grenadiers.

In the study of grenadiers, the Japanese spent a lot of effort. This is due to the fact that the Japanese army, despite the fact that it has learned a lot of experience from Western armies, does not have the same level of armament as it does in terms of heavy machine guns, so the grenadier will be able to compensate for this shortcoming.

The Type 89 grenadier is the most perfect design.

The Type 89 grenadier is less than 3 kilograms, which is much lighter than the weight of a rifle, making it ideal for individual soldiers. The Type 91 grenade it uses is only 0.45 kilograms, and the eight rounds of ammunition in one ammunition bag are only 3.6 kilograms, and the entire combat system with grenadiers is less than 7 kilograms, which is much lighter than a light machine gun. Due to their light weight, grenadier crews will not be able to fight with front-line infantry in time due to the heavy load of mortar or heavy machine gun crews. In real combat, grenadier groups can even charge with the infantry.

So this is also what Wang Weiyi values very much

The three grenadiers in the hands of William, Yannick and another German opened fire at the same time, and the Type 91 grenades fell one after another towards the Japanese machine-gun position, and the continuous explosions blew up in front of the Japanese position.

However, the accuracy of the grenadier is poor, and a qualified grenadier cannot be trained, and can only be judged by the grenadier's own experience on the battlefield.

You can't expect William and Yannick to be grenadiers all at once, that's unrealistic. But Wang Weiyi didn't ask them to do that.

The Japanese machine-gun fire was completely attracted by the grenadiers here, and the machine guns roared even more frantically

Wang Weiyi's thumb was raised, and the machine guns and submachine guns were fully fired, and the Japanese army was fired.

Wang Weiyi took a cluster grenade and began to wait quietly

On the front, there is a fight to the death, and the Japanese, who have been completely attracted, do not notice that a huge crisis is appearing on their side

This was the biggest flaw in this defensive formation when the numbers were small: they couldn't take care of their flanks.

At that time, Wang Weiyi also noticed this problem during the First World War, and the solution he came up with was to choose the most favorable terrain for defense and use the terrain to protect his flanks!

For example, in Wang Weiyi's last battle in the First World War: the Battle of Mengfukong, Wang Weiyi took this defense method to the extreme!

However, the Japanese army could not do this in Jiangjia Village, this is just a village, not a battlefield!

They can't properly protect their wings!

And at this time, the combat group commanded by Werner appeared!

Three more grenadiers, and at Werner's gesture, three grenades whistled out!

"Boom-boom-boom-"

With the sound of the explosion, the Japanese soldiers, who had been struggling to hold on to the frontal position, suddenly became a little panicked by the explosion.

At this time, the frontal machine guns and submachine guns of the skeleton team roared more violently, and the three grenadiers commanded by William exploded indiscriminately regardless of whether they could hit the target.

For a time, the Japanese positions were completely enveloped in smoke and explosions

Wang Weiyi rushed a few steps, and when he was close to the range of the projectile, the cluster grenade in his hand was thrown out of the box suddenly!

The explosion sounded, and the two Japanese machine guns were instantly muted. Just as the Japanese backup machine gunner was about to take over the shooting, Wang Weiyi stood up suddenly, and the MP39 in his hand spat out a terrible tongue of fire.

And William and the others quickly threw away the grenadiers, picked up all kinds of weapons in their hands, and joined in the strafing!

The same is true for Werner!

On the front and side, with double heavy firepower, no matter how high the fighting quality of the Japanese army is, it will not be able to continue to hold on!

Not to mention, they were faced with a group of Germans whose fighting qualities were no worse than theirs!

This is the first battle of the skeleton team, if Wang Weiyi did not have any confidence in these Germans before, then now he can be completely sure of one thing:

German soldiers are still trustworthy on the battlefield, regardless of whether they were real soldiers or not!

That idea of war is ingrained in the brain of every German! (To be continued.) )
