Chapter 448: Defensive Counterattack

The Russian army, which had been slightly adjusted, finally moved, and the infantry, like a tide, with the support of heavy weapons in the rear, launched an attack on the left flank of the Beiyang defense forces! The meaning of the Russians is very simple, since your flanks are forward, then I will first find a way to gnaw off your corner, and then launch an attack on the main position! The idea is simple and practical.\\ The first collision of the two sides unfolded on the left flank!

With the support of the accompanying 6-pounder guns, a large number of Russian infantry reappeared from the preset positions, and the Russian army, which was a full two battalions, began to think of a Beiyang battalion on the left flank to attack! As an attacker, he can concentrate as much heavy equipment as possible to attack a point on the opponent's defense. Supported by regimental firepower, the Russian infantry, which had superior firepower, shouted and rushed to the opposing position.

At a distance of 800 meters, the battalion 82 mortars began to fire at a rapid rate to suppress the opponent's offensive, and then the heavy machine guns began to fire indirectly, accompanied by the rhythm of the main shooter slowly controlling the firing range of the machine gun, and the continuous bullets drew an arc of death in the air, and then the dense rain of bullets gradually formed a curtain from the air. The barrage of death swept through the Russian infantry line again and again like the sickle of death. Most of the Russian soldiers who were hit heard only a shrill whistling sound coming from the air, and then a cloud of blood suddenly erupted from their bodies. In the face of such a blow from the sky, it would not have any effect whether they were advancing or lying down, and they didn't even know where these bullets came from!

After knocking out two belts of 250 rounds, the vast majority of heavy machine-gun crews began to shift positions. Subsequently, the suppression of the Russian army was handed over to light machine guns and grenadiers to which the platoons belonged. Although the rate of fire of the light machine gun is slightly slower, and the stability and accuracy of the design are not as good as that of the heavy machine gun, it is more flexible and thinks that the distance between the two sides is further shortened. The lack of stability in accuracy has been compensated for to a certain extent. The curling fire provided by grenadiers and light mortars can break up the opposing formations and attack the machine-gun groups that are following them. Although the continuity of fire was interrupted by the transfer of most of the heavy machine guns, on the whole, although slightly flawed, it still did not give the Russians a chance to take advantage of it.

It turns out that as long as there are enough troops. And with enough determination, then under the cover of superior firepower, the attacker can also approach the opponent's position step by step! Although Beiyang's counterattack was very sharp, although the follow-up mortar and heavy machine gun crews were knocked out a lot by grenadiers and mortars, black plumes of smoke rose up behind the Russian ** team. Every few minutes, there is a loud bang from behind! It was a mortar hit and the ammunition burst out. As the distance approached, the powerful mortar artillery of the Russians also began to exert its power, and the heavy machine gun positions in front of the defenders without strong cover defenses also became the focus of attention. Accompanied by the low roar of the mortar. Heavy shells smashed into the machine-gun positions that were not adequately protected, and the two sides entered a bloody war of attrition. None of them are covered, none of them are adequately protected. Both sides can clear each other's heavy firepower points one by one, and at this time, it depends on who has higher quality and can destroy more enemies in a shorter time, and who has a stronger will and who can hold on for one minute more than the other side!

With the support of heavy firepower in the rear, the Russian army, which had paid huge casualties, finally rushed into the first line of defense on the left flank of Beiyang with the corpses of their comrades, and the Russians were excited when they saw the diminutive Beiyang soldiers on the opposite side. Waving their rifles with bayonets and howling at each other, those diminutive guys seemed to them to be no match for the tall Russians, and the huge difference in physique and numbers was enough to determine the outcome of a close combat!

After the two sides threw the last round of grenades at each other, the Russians finally came face to face with the Beiyang Army. Looking at the short enemy opposite, the tall Russian soldier sneered and raised the rifle in his hand. But soon, they couldn't laugh anymore. The sound of gunfire like popping beans instantly resounded throughout the battlefield! A barrage of bullets like a splash instantly covered the front of the position, and the round-tipped pistol bullets with 9 large charges had an excellent stagnation effect. It will tumble and deform immediately after hitting the **. It was a small wound when it was injected, but when it was shot out from behind, it was a wound the size of a bowl! The pain and blood loss were too great for even the strong Slavic soldiers to bear. Before a large number of soldiers could shoot their first shot, they were knocked to the ground by these swarms of locusts, and in an instant rivers of blood flowed and wailed all over the field. The Russian soldiers who rushed to the front of the position were swept down in pieces!

"Rush forward with a pistol and kill the opponent's submachine gun shooter!" A Russian ** officer frantically waved the saber in his hand and shouted. Beiyang is equipped with a melee weapon, and they have already learned relevant information from the front line in Inner Mongolia, but it is one thing to hear that it is one thing, and the performance in actual combat is another, and they found out that this thing that has been turned into a bullet sprayer is so terrifying! More lethal than a machine gun at 150 meters. But at this time, the two sides have become entangled together, and it is impossible to separate, and the dazed Russian army can only continue to fight and never die!

"Fire, shoot all the shells." On the artillery positions in the rear of the Russians, the Russian artillery officers kept repeating the order to fire with a blushing face, and shells whistled out of the barrels and flew towards the soldiers on both sides who were fighting in close quarters on the front line. Everyone is equal in front of the cannonball, whether you are an enemy or your own person, as long as you are touched, you will die! The flying shrapnel indiscriminately harvested the lives of the soldiers on both sides, and exploded pieces of blood in the originally dense crowd!

The battle has been carried out to this extent, the fight is already the will, the two sides face to face, there are indiscriminate kills caused by the shells that fall from time to time on the head, there is no big difference in the level of individual combat quality, the dense rain of bullets and the bayonet against the chest make it impossible to avoid, in the face of an almost certain death situation, only to fight, killing more enemies before death is the only choice. The soldiers on both sides did not evade the front.

A Beiyang soldier was stabbed through the Russian bayonet, blood gushed out down the blood trough, and the corners of the Beiyang soldier's mouth moved as if he wanted to say something. The Russian soldier smirked and twisted his rifle in his hand. Then I wanted to pull it out. But the Beiyang soldier grabbed the barrel of the gun, and even rushed forward, the distance between the two sides has been pulled into an arm, the soldier who has gone to half a life suddenly raised the short sword in his hand and slashed forward, the bright sword body swept directly towards the other party like a horse under the sunlight, and then, the 30cm long short sword pierced the throat of the other party, and in the other party's frightened gaze, blood spurted out more than 2 meters away! Then the Beiyang soldier smiled and closed his eyes peacefully.

The battle is going on like this, and both sides are constantly consuming lives and wills!
