Bullets whistled wildly in the air, and grenades roared into puffs of smoke.

The brothers of the 305th Regiment were nervous and nervous when they first went to the battlefield.

Rumors about how powerful the Japanese army was before also reached their ears, and the impact on their psychology was quite serious.

But when they actually went to the battlefield themselves, and with strong fire support, the fear of the Japanese army in their hearts gradually disappeared.

This is true for anyone.

Only by facing the most feared things can you overcome the fear of such things

And that's exactly what the brothers of the 305th Regiment did!

The tight fire network organized by all kinds of machine guns blocked the way of the Japanese army's advance, and those bullets flying densely in the air seemed to be the life-saving money casually thrown out by the king of Yama, no matter which one fell on a person, it would take away a life.

The grenades were thrown out of the way by the grenadiers as if they didn't want to pay for them, and the continuous explosions of "boom" made all the Japanese soldiers feel the threat of death.

Satora Kiyoguchi, who was transferred from the Japanese mainland and took over as the captain of the 65th Infantry Wing, put down his binoculars and couldn't help but sigh: "I have never seen such fierce firepower, even the army of the Empire"

The captain of the Akasaka brigade, Akasaka Yoshika Nakasa, sighed: "Not all Shina armies are like this, but the one opposite us is an exception. From the very beginning of the earlier offensive, this Chinese army was both offensive and defensive. All behave very differently. They seem to have an endless supply of ammunition, they have their own ideas in attack, and they are different from other Chinese armies in defensive battles."

"Is their commander the one named Wang Weiyi?" Kiyoguchi Satoru asked.

"Yes. That's him. Yoshika Akasaka smiled bitterly: "He is the one who made the 65th Infantry Wing suffer unprecedented shame since the establishment of the wing. If only such an army can fight, it is not terrible, but the terrible thing is that under the inspiration of this army, many of those armies seem to have burst out with great combat effectiveness."

"No!" Kiyoguchi Gozo, who was born at Waseda University, shook his head: "What Wang Weiyi has inspired is not the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, and it is impossible to cultivate combat effectiveness overnight. He really inspires it. It is the self-confidence and courage of the soldiers of China, and their determination to fight to the death for this country."

Yoshika Akasaka frowned: "Can this also come in handy on the battlefield?" ”

Kiyoguchi Gozo smiled: "Akasaka-kun, what if the Japanese mainland is attacked?" ”

"Fight to the death. Swear loyalty to the Empire! Yoshika Akasaka said without hesitation.

"That's right, if you think like this, the people of China can think the same way." Kiyoguchi Gozo sighed: "Maybe many people in Shina were insensitive and thought that the war had nothing to do with them. That's why we can provoke a lot of things in Manchuria and Beiping. But now it is different, when a full-scale war breaks out, when their people see how their armies are fighting on the battlefield, their national courage will be aroused, exactly like Japan. ”

"Your Excellency," Yoshika Akasaka hesitated, "If what you say falls into the ears of people with ulterior motives, it may bring you some unnecessary trouble. ”

Kiyoguchi Gozo smiled: "I'm different from them, most of those officers came from military academies, but what about me? I studied history before. By chance, I joined the army, and was appreciated to command a wing. Becoming a high-ranking officer in the Empire may not be a qualified officer, but I have to be responsible for the Empire. It is far wiser to study the mentality of our enemies so that we can think about what they are going to do, and how we can prepare for them in advance and have a clear purpose, than to blindly shout that the empire will win."

Yoshika Akasaka nodded.

To be honest, he couldn't understand why he wanted to send a person who had studied history before to command the army, he was a monk halfway, could he understand the war?

But now it seems that the new wing is more clever than the other Imperial officers!

He will analyze, he will try to understand his enemies, and then think carefully about how to defeat them. And this is exactly what most Imperial officers lacked.

"Your Excellency, what should we do now?" The sound of gunfire and explosions had to bring Yoshika Akasaka back to the most brutal and realistic battlefield: "Stop the offensive for the time being? ”

"No!" Kiyoguchi Gozo raised the binoculars again: "Let the troops increase their offensive intensity, I must know how strong the combat effectiveness of the people on the other side of the road is!" ”

A single decision by a commander can often make an already brutal battle even more brutal

The intensity of the Japanese attack intensified with the order of Kiyoguchi Gozo. Aircraft and artillery began to bombard the Jiangjiacun position frantically, as if they were going to blow up every inch of land here.

Then, a large number of Japanese troops appeared on the battlefield

On the frontal battlefield of Jiangjiacun, the Japanese army invested one brigade after another at one time, and along with the infantry, there were two tanks.

Until the beginning of 1938, anti-tank weapons were stagnant.

During the "20-year truce" from 1919 to 1939, all the major military powers had prophets who wrote books and said, Britain's Liddell Leeddell. Colonels Hart and Fuller, Charles de Gaulle in France, and Guderian in Germany all proposed their own ideas of future mechanized warfare. However, the military circles of most countries do not fully recognize the power of tanks, and they still insist that tanks are an infantry support weapon. On this premise, it is not surprising that the development of infantry anti-tank weapons has stagnated.

Only Germany is an exception.

The luck of the Germans was that they got one: the skeleton baron - Ernst. Alexon. Feng. General Bream!

Baron Skeleton was the first to put forward the theory of the threat of tanks, and summed up a set of practical and effective ways to deal with tanks. The Germans quickly began to take Ernst's theories seriously.

In the First World War, the Germans invented many ways to deal with these "moving fire-breathing behemoths" in the face of Allied tanks.

At that time, tanks were large, slow, and poorly armored, and could easily be destroyed by field artillery. The German infantry found in actual combat that the K-type bullet for long-range sniping could penetrate the weak armor of earlier tanks, and that this tungsten carbide-core bullet could be fired with a regular Mauser rifle or Maxine machine gun. Thus, from the spring of 1917, each German infantry on the Western Front was armed with 5 K-shells, and the machine gunners were equipped with a whole chain of K-shells.

At the end of the war, at the request of the German High Command, the Mauser company also produced a specialized anti-tank gun T-Gewehr with greater armor-piercing capabilities. This is the world's first dedicated infantry anti-tank weapon.

In particular, in 1888, an American engineer named Monroe discovered that if the warhead charge was changed to a concave shape, the blasting effect could be improved. During the First World War, German ordnance engineers further developed this technique. They made the distance between the tip of the warhead and the charge 2-3 times the caliber of the shell, so that the hollow charge detonated before direct contact with the target, further increasing the shaped armor-piercing effect.

Therefore, it can be said that at this stage, the German anti-tank guns are the most advanced.

Especially in the face of the "small bean tank" used by the Japanese, the German anti-tank guns could easily kill it.

What is even more gratifying is that among the weapons that the Germans have provided to China this time, there is such a large number of K-type improved bullets.

If there had been a different person in Nanjing that day, he would not have chosen this bullet, but it was Wang Weiyi who was present to negotiate with Kroll and Hannah:

Baron Skeleton – Ernst. Brahm!

He knew too well the huge threat that the K-type bullets could pose to the Japanese "Shodou Tank", especially the improved ones, so he did not hesitate to ask for a large number of such bullets!

Now such bullets were also assigned to the 305 regiment!

"Change the bullet, change the bullet!" The officers firmly remembered what Wang Weiyi said: once the enemy used tanks on the battlefield, they immediately ordered the soldiers who used Mauser rifles and Makqin heavy machine guns to replace them with K-round shells and K-round chains.

Now, it's time for the Japanese to taste the bitterness.

Guns with K-round shells fired at the same time, infantry, heavy machine guns

The weak armor of the "Little Bean Tank" was instantly pierced by these dense firepower. These tanks, which were once majestic on the battlefield, were paralyzed there like a puddle of mud

Kiyoguru had witnessed all of this with his own eyes, and all he could do now was smile bitterly.

What kind of troops are on the other side! Not only did they have such firepower, but they also didn't care about the threat of tanks.

How many other weapons do they have that the enemy does not know how to do?

In fact, what Qingkou Wusan will not know is that the Chinese army on the other side is not the real main force, but just a group of soldiers who have stepped onto the battlefield for the first time.

A bigger and more terrifying tiger is still eyeing the front line of Changshu, waiting for the order to attack at any time.

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, I'm afraid I won't be able to succeed today, please give the order to retreat." Yoshika Akasaka said helplessly on the side.

Qingkou Wusan sighed and nodded silently.

Now what he was worried about was that the fact that he had been hit by such heavy fire from the enemy today must have had a very heavy psychological impact on the soldiers of the Empire.

Even if we continue to launch an offensive tomorrow, we may not be able to succeed! (To be continued.) )
