readx;? Just as Ito Masaki received a report from his subordinates, the town of Jiafa in Nanling County and the town of Caijiaqiao in the south of Jing County were attacked by the Japanese army almost simultaneously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Major General Shozaburo Sato, the commander of the Sato detachment that attacked Iefa Town, knew that this position would be difficult to break after observing the defenders' positions outside Iefa Town.

Major General Zoten then gave the task of attacking to the 103rd Wing, and the commander of the 103rd Wing, Kozo Furukawa, first asked the artillery of the wing to set up 20 mountain guns and infantry guns, and then arranged for a brigade under his command to prepare for the attack. Just when this brigade had already prepared a squadron for attack, an order came from above, asking the Japanese troops in this squadron to supervise and let the puppet army go first.

It turned out that in order to test the reality of the position, Major General Sato was ready to let the puppet army of a regiment go to the front first. These puppet soldiers usually rely on the power of the Japanese to bully the common people, which is a good hand, but it is useless to let them take the lead. After the Japanese bombarded the defenders' positions with dozens of mountain guns, the puppet troops of this regiment cautiously touched the positions under the coercion of the Japanese army.

After the soldiers of the third battalion and the second company on the position escaped the Japanese shelling in the anti-artillery hole, they found that it was not the Japanese army that came up, but the puppet army. The second company commander was stunned for a moment and then ordered: "It's the puppet army that comes up, and it's passed down, only light machine guns and rifles are allowed to fire, and other weapons are not allowed to fire." Soon, the order was circulated all over the position.

When the puppet army crawled to a distance of 200 meters from the position, the heavy machine guns of the Japanese troops behind them began to cover and fire. And the puppet army also crackled and fired in the direction of the position. Heavy machine gun bullets fell on the position, and the bullets fired by the puppet army basically flew over the high ground of the position.

Under the strafing fire of the Japanese heavy machine guns, there was still no movement on the position, which also emboldened the attacking puppet army. Just after the puppet army entered the area less than 150 meters away from the position, the commander of the second company shouted: "Fire!" and then several light machine guns and dozens of rifles on the position fired bullets at the puppet army at the same time.

More than a dozen puppet soldiers who walked in front were knocked to the ground at once, and then the puppet soldiers behind shouted that they either fell to the ground at once, or desperately fled back, and hundreds of puppet soldiers in a regiment suddenly became a mess. When the soldiers on the battlefield saw the bearish appearance of the puppet army, they couldn't help but be happy, the puppet army no longer moved forward, and the soldiers showed mercy.

Except for a dozen or so people who were knocked down at the beginning, the puppet army of this regiment fled back without a few dead or wounded. After escaping back, the squadron leader of the Japanese army who supervised the war came to the puppet commander in a few steps, and without saying a word, he slapped him twice, and then scolded: "Baga!

Then he kicked the puppet commander to the ground, and then returned to the team with a grunt, pulled out his command knife, pointed the command knife in the direction of the defender's position, and shouted: "Kill it!" and then led a squadron of Japanese troops under him to attack forward. After he left, a puppet army stepped forward to help the puppet commander who fell to the ground.

The regiment commander covered his face with his hands, and after getting up, he spat on the ground, looked at the back of the Japanese squadron leader and scolded: "Grass! If you have the ability, you go to lay a position to show Lao Tzu, you will only get angry at Lao Tzu, and if you go up, you will have to eat guns!" After scolding, he retreated to the side with the team. On the position, the commander of the second company thought that the Japanese were about to shell again, and was preparing to let the soldiers withdraw into the anti-artillery hole.

The soldier next to him suddenly shouted: "Company commander, little Japan is coming up again." The commander of the second company hurriedly raised his binoculars to look in the direction of the Japanese army, and sure enough, a squadron of Japanese troops pressed up again. The commander of the second company ordered: "This time the little Japan has come up, and everyone is ready to fight!" After speaking, he held a telescope to observe the attacking Japanese army.

After entering 200 meters, when the heavy machine guns of the cover sounded, several grenadiers began to shoot grenades at the position, while other Japanese troops also advanced while firing with rifles and light machine guns in their hands.

The commander of the second company, who had been in battle for a long time, did not dare to be careless when he saw that the Japanese troops who had attacked him were well-trained, for fear that the sharpshooters in the herald company would kill the Japanese grenadiers and machine gunners. Although the marksmanship of several sharpshooters is not as good as that of specialized snipers, they are also in front of the entire second company, and it is not difficult to hit the enemy from 200 meters away.

With the sound of sharpshooters on the position, the Japanese grenadiers were shot and fell to the ground. When the Japanese troops were almost 100 meters in front of the position, the commander of the second company shouted again: "Open fire!" This time the position was full of firepower, two heavy machine guns blocked the Japanese advance path with crossfire from the bunker, and the light machine guns roared and harvested the lives of the Japanese soldiers.

Although other fighters do not have the same good marksmanship as sharpshooters, they will not empty their guns at a distance of 100 meters. Although the Japanese suffered a lot of casualties, they did not retreat, but lay on the ground and fired at the soldiers of the second company. After a while, the Japanese found that the defenders on the position were not inferior to their own marksmanship, and that the grenadiers and machine gunners on their side were always hit quickly. Twenty minutes later, a squadron of Japanese casualties had already lost a third, and the squadron leader realized that the defenders of China on the opposite side were not easy to deal with.

Just as the squadron leader gave the order to retreat, a bullet hit him directly in the head, knocking him in all directions. The Japanese were killed and wounded again as they retreated, and only half of the soldiers of the last squadron escaped. The miserable appearance of the Japanese army made the puppet soldiers shrink their necks, and the regiment commander said to his cronies: "Brothers, do you see it, this is mercy to our subordinates on the other side." Let's fucking be smart, if we attack, the muzzle of the gun is raised a little bit, just mean it, don't fucking take it too seriously, saving your life is the most important thing. ”

The regiment leader's words made several people around him nod their heads again and again. The Japanese suffered a loss and began to retaliate with artillery again, this time using all the artillery of the entire wing, including 20 75-caliber mountain guns and 24 92 infantry guns. Dozens of artillery pieces blew up the defenders' positions, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the air, and there were constantly fires.

At this time, the soldiers of the second company had already taken refuge in the anti-artillery holes, some were wiping their guns and checking the ammunition, some were closing their eyes to recuperate, some were smoking and chatting, and none of them took the Japanese artillery bombardment seriously. At the end of the twenty-minute shelling, a whistle sounded, and the fighters, armed with weapons, once again quickly passed through the communication trenches and entered the position.

This time the Japanese army came up with another squadron, and like last time, the Japanese troops of this squadron, after attacking for half an hour, could not cross the area of a hundred meters in front of the position, dropped nearly a hundred corpses, and retreated. On this day, the Japanese army launched more than ten attacks on the position, but they were all blocked by the soldiers of the second company, and the Japanese army gained nothing except the loss of several hundred soldiers. The second company lost only six fighters, and a dozen more were wounded.

Also under attack at the same time as Jiafa Town was Caijiaqiao Town. The methods of attack of the Japanese Akiyama detachment and the Sato detachment were basically the same, the difference was that the Akiyama detachment took out thirty-six seventy-five mm caliber field guns from the field artillery wing at the beginning. Dozens of artillery pieces bombarded the defenders' positions at the same time, making the soldiers of the New Fourth Army hiding in the anti-artillery holes extremely nervous.

Although these soldiers were intensively trained for seven days, during which the veterans taught them a lot of knowledge about saving their lives on the battlefield, they must have never fought such a positional battle with the Japanese army, nor had they experienced this level of artillery bombardment, and tension was inevitable. By the time the Japanese artillery bombardment was over and the order to enter the position came, some of the fighters had not yet recovered from their nervousness, and they had forgotten how to enter the position.

By the time these fighters entered the position and were ready for battle, a squadron of 180 Japanese soldiers was less than 300 meters away from the position. Looking at the yellow Japanese soldiers pressed up in the distance, these soldiers became even more nervous, and they had already forgotten the things that the veterans had paid attention to during the forced training.

The Japanese troops still began to shoot with heavy machine guns when they entered the 200-meter range, and at the same time, the attacking Japanese troops also fired with strong canisters and light machine guns. The ordinary infantry continued to move forward while firing with Type 38 rifles. Several fighters on the position were hit by the Japanese army and fell down because of poor concealment. Several grenades fell into the trenches, taking the lives of several fighters.

At this time, a recruit pulled the trigger because he was nervous, and the crisp sound of gunfire rang out on the position. As if a conditioned reflex, this gunshot broke the heartstrings of the already nervous soldiers on the position, and a series of gunshots rang out on the position. The commander who commanded the battle in the bunker was also helpless in the face of this situation, so he could only give the order to open fire.

These soldiers fought a lot of live ammunition during the intensive training, and their marksmanship has improved significantly, but that was on the training ground, and when they really arrived on the battlefield, the enemy's bullets flew left and right on the body, and the grenades continued to explode on the position, and from time to time there were comrades around them screaming and falling, all of which made these recruits so nervous that they forgot to aim, and just kept shooting bullets.

The commander of the Japanese army was a little worried when he saw that there were many defenders on the position, but when he saw that the damage caused by the defenders to his troops was really limited, he pointed his command knife in the direction of the position and shouted: "Kill!"

The Japanese began to charge the position, and then the defenders on the position woke up like a dream, the heavy machine guns in the bunker, the light machine guns behind the sandbags finally began to exert their power, and as the Japanese approached, the soldiers also found a sense of shooting, and their marksmanship was much better. At this time, the Japanese squadron could not bear any strength, and after losing nearly half of its strength, it retreated.

As soon as the Japanese retreated, the soldiers on the position were relieved and lay on the position to gasp. At this time, the commander remembered what the veteran instructor had said, jumped up and shouted: "Quick, all withdraw to the anti-artillery hole!" After hearing this, the soldiers ran to the anti-artillery hole, and as soon as the soldiers ran into the anti-artillery hole, the Japanese shells on the position fell.
