Section 182 Breaking the Formation

The stone watching the battle from a distance, seeing that the machine guns of the first battalion had begun to be fully suppressed, immediately knew that this battle had reached the most critical time. The whole independent regiment was probably because of him, and there were many differences between the other units in terms of operations. Especially in the choice of firepower, it can be seen at a glance.

In general troop combat, in order to pursue the maximum degree of fire suppression, the machine gun is the first weapon to be used at a distance of 100 to 150 paces, and the enemy formation is divided through the fire suppression of the machine gun, reducing the pressure on the frontal battlefield, and then allowing the infantry to use the rifle to shoot accurately to achieve the effect of repelling the enemy. Because the troops of the national army always rely on fortifications to fight the enemy, such an order of operations has basically formed a law. Although the lethality of the machine gun is not the most ideal in this way of attack, the characteristics of fire suppression are brought into full play, and it can be regarded as the best of things.

The various units of the Independent Regiment were different, whether it was offensive operations or defensive operations, and the officers and men of the Independent Regiment penetrated deep into the influence of stones, and in any case, they were mainly composed of a large number of effective forces that killed and wounded the enemy. For the officers and men of the independent regiment, it does not matter whether the position is strong or not, the important thing is that the officers and men in the regiment have good marksmanship and accurate fighting. Even on the battlefield, a rifleman must have a fight of eight or nine without leaving ten, so that he can be considered a qualified soldier. Because the effective range of the rifle is relatively long, the accurate shooting of the rifle can bring great pressure to the enemy, and the long-range precision killing makes the Japanese attack often in a dilemma after half of the attack.

Of course, if the strength of the Japanese army was really strong and the number of troops was sufficient, it would have forced its way forward against such an offensive, and at short and medium distances, the units of the independent regiment would have to use light and heavy machine guns. The machine gun has a fast rate of fire and a large coverage area, and strafing at this distance can form a large area of damage, and can also suppress the enemy at this awkward distance, so that the rifle can fire again. In the attack, the use of machine guns by the independent regiment is also quite special, compared with the general troops in the distance of 80 to 100 paces to suppress fire, the independent regiment's fire suppression distance is closer, basically around 50 paces.

On the one hand, the independent regiment has great confidence in the strength of its firepower, and on the other hand, it is also in order to maximize the lethality of the machine gun. On the basis of suppression, it can further form a strong enough kill to break down the Japanese defenses with death.

After all, if the number of machine guns is not enough, let alone lethal, and even the machine guns on the enemy's positions cannot be suppressed, where is there still much lethality?

"Tell the tall sledgehammer that the second battalion will immediately reinforce the middle lane and tear apart the devil's defense. Then he ordered Li Shijian that the third battalion should immediately prepare for battle, and once the attack of the second battalion was ineffective, the third battalion would immediately go up and replace the first battalion. Shi looked at the battlefield in the distance, listened to the dense and violent machine gun sound, and couldn't help but command calmly.

After speaking, he shouted to the communicator on the side: "Go to the artillery company and ask Ou Zhanpeng if he can still reinforce the troops on the frontal battlefield, as long as he can suppress the enemy for a few breathing time, this battle will be very certain." ”

The artillery company was here, and Ou Zhanpeng soon got the news that the six guns under his command had changed positions long before the Japanese field artillery attacked. When they were in Guanqiao, they already had the experience of fighting devil artillery, and they knew that firing in one place for a long time was completely looking for death, so timely movement adjustment was the basis for their survival. But after moving, it is difficult to attack the enemy in front of you, and the position changes, and the shooting Zhuyuan is naturally different, and it is very troublesome to recalibrate the target and re-aim and shoot. What's even worse is that at this moment, the first battalion of brothers is attacking the position of the devils, and it is even possible to kill them at any time.

"Company commander, what should I do?" Lian asked anxiously on the side, the gunfire in the distance was fierce at the moment, the brothers of the first battalion were obviously already carrying out the final attack, at this critical juncture, their shells could help the first battalion quickly defeat the devils. If they don't fight well, it is very likely that a battalion will fall short, and if they don't fight, their meaning and value will inevitably be greatly reduced, after all, an artillery company like them is not available to any unit, and Commander Shi spent a lot of energy to have the six guns of the artillery company, but he expects them to be able to play a fatal effect with one blow at the most critical time of the battle.

"Aim now, get ready to fire." After Ou Zhanpeng thought about it, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and said, he is the company commander, and all the burdens at this time can only be carried by him.

"Company commander, in case ......" The company on the side was startled and reminded hesitantly.

Ou Zhanpeng waved his hand resolutely and said: "Fighting is desperate, if you don't have the courage to break the cauldron and sink the boat, and you don't have confidence in your brothers, then you can't fight at all, don't be afraid of anything, the brothers in the front battalion need us, fire immediately, and retreat immediately after the second round of shelling." ”

"Okay, company commander, since you have made up your mind, and his brothers have also fought hard, it's a big deal that we will pay for the lives of the brothers in the first battalion after we finish this battle." Lian Fu gritted his teeth, and immediately turned to the artillery commanders on the side and shouted: "Direction 800, target 40 0......, aim!" ”

Ou Zhanpeng also reminded at this time: "Set a hundred steps back from the ruler, and try not to accidentally injure the brothers in the first battalion." ”

The commanders of the artillery company responded with a bang, and immediately with their orders, the gun barrels began to be adjusted downward, and finally, after a period of busyness, the sound of "ready" came.

"Fire" Ou Zhanpeng can be selected from so many company commanders of the independent regiment to serve as this extremely important artillery company commander, naturally has outstanding features, at this moment in this need to take responsibility and decision, the performance can be described as neat and neat without any hesitation, just this critical moment of the imminent chaos, far from ordinary people can compare, hearing the voice of the artillery commanders, he immediately gave an order, "fire".

"Boom" an artillery gun immediately fired, this is an artillery company recognized as the best archery squad, always by them to fire first, with the landing point of the shell to provide others with shooting parameters and elements, so that they can make actual adjustments, now after a shell falls, the position of the artillery company, immediately came a burst of cheers, because they see the truth, the shell accurately hit the depth of the Japanese position, successfully smashed on the Japanese position, although the killing effect can not be seen at the moment, but at this moment as long as it can hit the enemy's position, which is already a huge success.

Ou Zhanpeng and the others on the side also couldn't help but let out a long breath, this cannon was like gambling, fortunately, their extraordinary strength was also fully exerted under this heavy pressure at this moment, and this shell successfully fell on the enemy's position, providing unusually precious data to other artillery. Ou Zhanpeng also yelled again: "Fire", but this time, his voice was a little more firm.

On the front-line battlefield of "Dudu Da Du......du", the charging horn of the first battalion had already sounded, and the dense light and heavy machine gun sound that made the scalp tingle was like a raging storm pouring bullets on the Japanese position. The Japanese army obviously felt that a catastrophe was coming, and fought back desperately, but it was a pity that whether it was a machine gun or a rifle, after being bombed indiscriminately by the previous shells and losing the opportunity, it was also a little helpless in the face of such a fierce and intensive attack by a battalion.

The captain of the Japanese army was anxious, and the news of asking for help from the north bank was one after another, and it was just dark, and the enemy launched such a crazy attack, which they did not expect at all, and now the most important thing is that judging from the enemy's attack, the strength of the enemy army in front of him is far beyond their estimates, which makes him not confident in the possible white-knuckle combat next.

At this moment, a violent explosion of "boom" exploded not far from him, and the blazing air flow swept through everything, tearing the surrounding Japanese troops into pieces, and the huge impact force even lifted several unprotected Japanese soldiers out and tore their internal organs to pieces.

The Japanese soldiers on the side immediately changed color, and the soldiers of the first battalion couldn't help but be even more demoralized when they saw this situation.

Although the Japanese troops of the 6th Division were elite, it was the first time for them to fight under this kind of coordinated attack of infantry and artillery, and they were extremely unsuitable for such a way of fighting, but they knew that at this time, they could only grit their teeth and hold on, otherwise the troops crossing the river would all be finished, and such losses would be too amazing.

"Boom...... After the previous test-fired shells, four or five shells landed on the Japanese army's narrow line of defense almost simultaneously, and a series ......of piercing flames rose into the sky, illuminating the entire sky. The commanders of the Japanese army at all levels on the north bank of the Chishi River were even more stunned by the situation on the south bank. The news of the South Bank's request for help came one after another, how many enemy troops did they attack? Hasn't the enemy's 57th Division not yet arrived? Which force are they facing now? There are more than a thousand people on the south bank, and there are tanks, even in the face of an infantry division of the enemy army, there is no problem, why is this happening now?

One round of shelling was followed by another! If before the war, the Japanese army was cowering in the trench position, and could still avoid most of the damage of the shells, at least the fatal shock wave might be avoided, but at this moment, the Japanese army was dealing with the enemy in front of them wholeheartedly, and the shells fell in vain, and pieces of Japanese troops fell.
