Section 143 Blossoming in the middle
The offensive mode of the second battalion looks simple, but in the eyes of people like Zhang Lingfu, it is obvious that this kind of attack is really not simple, not to mention anything else, just the need for a large number of machine guns, it is not something that ordinary troops can have, and in the case that it is not easy for each person to have a rifle, the number of machine guns equipped with more than the requirements of the establishment is a luxury for ordinary troops. Of course, the troops brought up by the independent regiment with stones really can't be measured by common sense, and for Zhang Lingfu, he can only envy it, but can't imitate it.
In addition, the machine guns are fired alternately with almost no gaps, and the continuous pressure is formed, and the tacit understanding between the soldiers is really amazing, not a veteran soldier who has been trained for a long time, not a well-trained unit, and simply cannot use these tactics so skillfully on the battlefield. However, after really giving full play to all these skills of ordinary training, just like the current situation, the Japanese troops in Guanqiao Town were unable to form effective fire suppression except for sporadic shooting, and could only watch the Chinese troops continue to press, tearing open the gaps in the defense line little by little.
Even if Iwanaga, the commander of the Japanese army, personally brought the selected "elites" to kill, he would not be able to change the situation in front of him at all. Although the 2nd Battalion did not have many troops engaged in the attack head-on, their firepower was so dense and sharp that in the not very wide battlefield, the machine-gun fire of alternate cover blocked almost every space. Iwanaga was ready to attack with machine gun fire, but after paying four or five costs, seeing that it didn't play any role, he had to give up this idea and watched the enemy continue to approach.
At this moment, a cannon shot rang out on the mountain in vain, and almost at the same time, a violent explosion was also issued in the northwest direction of Guanqiao, and the sky-high fire with a cloud of black smoke and white fog produced a great impact and damage in the darkness in a very strange form, and it was also in vain that the originally extremely fierce machine gun fire of the second battalion was interrupted, exactly the same as the previous situation, taking advantage of this opportunity, Iwanaga also loudly ordered his subordinates to immediately launch a counterattack, although he knew that after the other party came to his senses, Their firepower would soon be suppressed, but there was nothing he could do.
It can be said that all their hopes at the moment are placed on the artillery behind them, although Iwanaga also knows that the number of artillery shells is not much, and such an attack is tantamount to drinking water to quench their thirst, but there is no way, if they don't attack like this, they will not be able to hold on at all, and the speed of defeat will only be faster.
A burst of fierce firepower unfolded, and the Japanese troops in Guanqiao Town instantly released all their abilities as if they were dying and struggling, and after being suppressed for a long time, they finally found a chance to fight back, at this time, if they couldn't catch it, the next terrible consequences, they could already fully predict it. However, in the face of such an attack, the second battalion commander Gao Da Sledgehammer only smiled coldly, and then under his order, two heavy machine guns suddenly opened fire in the dark, and its powerful and crazy firepower immediately tore through the air, tore the weak fortifications of the Japanese army, and tore apart the body of the Japanese army.
"Open fire, press the people down!" In the heavy rain, he shouted loudly, and he was also very anxious to see that the dominance of the battlefield would be controlled by the enemy again. However, it was useless for him to roar, most of his soldiers were wounded, and now they had been soaked in the rain all day, and their wounds had begun to rot. What's worse is that the casualty itself has a poor physical ability to resist, and as a result, not only can it not be treated and rested, but it is constantly drenched in the rain, so that the number of people with fever has increased dramatically, and with a series of other diseases, nearly half of the people have some difficulty even moving.
Roared a few times but it didn't have any effect, and Iwanaga was also anxious to break out in a cold sweat, but this kind of thing is not something that can be solved in a hurry, and what ultimately determines the battlefield situation is the strength of the troops and the commander's on-the-spot scheduling. Seeing that the enemy's assault troops had rushed to a distance of more than 30 steps on the periphery of the position, Iwanaga could only prepare for the next white-knuckle battle, at this time, he hoped that the artillery unit could launch a series of attacks to cut off the enemy's follow-up troops, as long as they could annihilate the enemy's advance team, they could still have a glimmer of hope.
At this moment, there was a burst of gunfire on the hillside. Iwanaga was stunned for a moment, thinking that the enemy forces from the east had also attacked, but when they turned back and saw where the battle had taken place, he froze there, because the place where the battle had taken place was the flat area at the top of the mountain, which was an artillery position. And the eastern defense line, concentrated halfway up the hillside, is not together at all. The artillery positions were attacked by enemy troops, and did the enemy troops fly up from the sky? Isn't every place heavily guarded?
Iwanaga couldn't figure it out, but the fact was that it had already happened. When the battle was about to enter the most critical moment, the enemy's fierce blow was undoubtedly like a sharp knife stuck in their chest, causing them to lose all resistance in an instant. It seems that they saw the battle on the top of the mountain, and the 9th Division in the east, which had been stopped, also invested a large number of troops to launch an attack at this time, although they did not receive accurate information, but they knew that the scouts sent out earlier had made contact with the friendly troops behind the Japanese army, and the battle was won by the two sides of the two armies, and now there are still troops who can kill the enemy's mountain top and end up the Japanese artillery position, and this battle will no longer be suspenseful.
On the top of the mountain, Xiao Shandong stabbed a Japanese soldier in front of him with a bayonet, and by the light of the surrounding fire, he could vaguely see that the enemy's face was constantly distorting, and the whole person was constantly twitching, and the two widening eyes seemed to burst out, giving people an extremely hideous feeling. This situation is really a bit frightening, but in Xiao Shandong's eyes, it is commonplace, he twisted hard to the side, so that the Japanese army let out a last scream, and then violently pulled out his rifle. As far as the eye could see, the battle in the darkness seemed to have stopped, and the brothers of the guard company seemed to be more neat and neat than him, which made Xiao Shandong can't help but curse secretly.
Looking at the four artillery pieces not far from him, a satisfied smile finally appeared on his green face, 75mm mountain artillery, he is no stranger to this thing, and now his subordinate regimental battalion artillery company has four of the same artillery, and in the previous battle, it has exerted amazing power. Now that four more guns have been captured at once, when he thinks that the independent regiment will have the strong combat effectiveness of eight mountain guns all of a sudden, he can't help but smile a little from ear to ear, damn it, such a strong firepower, not to mention the brigade and wing of the little devils, even the brigade is probably nothing more than that!
"One platoon guards the east, the second platoon guards the west, and the third platoon responds in the middle, brothers, move quickly, as long as we can defend until the regiment commander tears through the devil's defense, we will win this battle!" Li Wenguang shouted excitedly, he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that both sides of the mountain were in the midst of fierce battles. If it were a normal day, he must have commanded his troops to attack from behind the devils to prepare for the troops attacking from the front. But this time, there were four mountain guns and more than a dozen shells beside him, and he was reluctant to give up these things in hand, after completely annihilating the Japanese artillery, he also decided to hold on, even if he fought out the people, he had to guard until the regiment commander killed them, and he must guard until the four mountain guns were brought back.
However, Li Wenguang obviously overestimated the strength of the Japanese army at the moment, in fact, their tactics at the moment are to blossom in the middle, but unlike the ordinary initiative to be surrounded by the Japanese army, they are raiding into the hinterland of the Japanese army, causing the forced penetration and division of the Japanese army's troops. Especially when the Japanese army was almost collapsing at this moment, their attack not only broke through the Japanese defense line, but also completely crushed the confidence and hope of the Japanese army.
The Japanese troops, who were barely holding on, completely collapsed when they saw the enemy fighting from behind and conquering the artillery positions in one fell swoop.
In the case of extremely poor physical condition, people's willpower has also become very weak, seeing the enemy constantly breaking through the position, seeing * constantly exploding not far from him, the Japanese soldiers just numbly pulled the trigger, and even if they didn't want to move anymore.
Seeing the enemy break into the position, seeing a sharp bayonet rushing in, the painful Japanese soldiers who had been tortured by the rain and weather only felt relieved, among them, only some of them were struggling to resist, but most of them were physically unable to support them to fight, especially the death of the artillery unit behind them, it was more like breaking the last hope in their hearts, so that they could no longer raise any will to fight. A company of thugs successfully tore through the Japanese defenses, successfully broke into the town, and launched a massacre with little resistance.
Zhang Lingfu, who was watching the battle on the front line, obviously did not expect that the battle situation would develop into what it is now, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the soldiers of the Independent Regiment easily break through the enemy's defense line and successfully break into the town. He couldn't help but ask in disbelief: "Stone, is this how you usually fight?" ”
The fact that his question was not answered, which made him a little strange, turned his head, only to see that the stone was also opening his mouth wide at the moment, looking extremely incredible.
