Chapter 620: The First Time I Saw the Devil (Part II)
The layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway!
After taking the soldiers for so long, Hu Yingze is no longer the civilian soldier in the division headquarters at the beginning.
First, he used his glasses to observe the marching array of the little devils, and as soon as the guns rang out, he immediately focused his attention on the little devils' infantry - if he wanted to see the combat ability of the little devils and their tactical literacy, the easiest and most direct way was to see their reaction after being attacked.
At a distance of less than 50 meters, with the marksmanship of the soldiers of the assault company, there was basically no possibility of missing the target.
As soon as the gunshots rang out, I saw the little devil fall one by one.
But the next reaction of the little devil made Hu Yingze frown directly.
The little devils immediately divided into two groups, one group of people, some grabbed the guns around them, but they did not die, but their companions who were rolling on the ground and screaming, ran to the side of the road against Zhang Qingshan's side, and at a glance they knew that they wanted to use the small hill or forest on the side of the road to escape. Some of the darers, only two or three people, dared to shoot and scream and rush down the hill along the forest. And even so, they were surrounded by a few companions, covering and searching with guns - from their actions and thoughts of not rushing to shoot aimlessly, but using their bodies to cover their companions while raising their guns to search for targets, it can be seen how hard they usually train, they are really well-trained, and their psychological quality is also very good, and it can also be seen that they are very experienced on the battlefield and definitely deserve the title of veterans.
The other group of little devils quickly retreated to the right side of the main road (at the foot of the mountain opposite Zhang Qingshan).
Under the yelling and shouting of the commanders of several little devils, this group of little devils quickly found the target according to Zhang Qingshan's tongue of fire sprayed from the muzzle of their guns, and began to fight back frantically. The reason why they are crazy is because although they squatted on the ground, or went back lying on the ground, they didn't find any cover, and even a few meters behind them was a forest, and they didn't dodge under the command of the commander, because they were using their bodies and robbing to cover the small steel cannon that was being erected a few meters behind them...... It can be seen from this that they are fierce to their enemies, and even more ruthless to themselves. It also reflects their absolute obedience to orders. Of course, it can also be seen that the command ability of their commanders: it is better to bear some more losses, but also to build up artillery positions and be ready for counterattacks, and not to be like headless flies, only knowing that they are fleeing for their lives. The soldiers are not afraid of death, the commander commands properly, the weapons are advanced, and the combination of infantry and artillery is strong, from which you can see how strong the overall strength of the little devil is.
(Personal humble opinion: The little devils who invaded China at the beginning were basically veterans who had experienced the baptism of the battlefield, and the quality of individual soldiers was absolutely high.) However, later, the little devil's self-confidence was highly inflated, and he began to attack from all sides, spreading the stall too big, but the domestic soldiers were exhausted, so there were fourteen or fifteen-year-old baby soldiers. This point is most directly reflected in why few little devils surrendered at the beginning, but later there were more little devils who surrendered. Although this is related to the bushido spirit of the little devil, it is also related to the quality of the soldiers. )
From the time the gunshot rang out to the little devil carrying the little steel cannon over, only about ten seconds passed.
Zhang Qingshan didn't expect the little devil's reaction ability to be so fast, which surprised him, but also regretted that he couldn't fire a few more shots and kill a few more little devils, but the current situation is very unfavorable for them, and if they don't retreat, when the little devil adds up the small steel cannon, then they will have to suffer shells...... Zhang Qingshan's fight was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and among the hundreds of infantry in front of him, there were actually more than 10 small steel cannons concentrated at once.
"Withdraw! Withdraw!" Zhang Qingshan shouted a few times, and ran to the left side of the mountain.
As soon as the soldiers heard the order, they all ran wildly according to the original escape route.
However, the fighters of the assault regiment did not have to be bad at all: when the devils were attacked, they desperately rescued those injured comrades. And the same is true of the assault company when retreating: risking their own lives, risking enemy bullets to save wounded comrades...... There were two injuries: one in the left arm and one in the left thigh. But fortunately, no one died, after all, they were the one who attacked, and from the time the gun rang out to now, it was only about ten seconds, and many devils had not even noticed their figures. In addition, there are many trees in the forest, which is easy to hide and cover, so it is normal that there are no sacrifices.
However, this premise is that the devil is using a firearm, but a few seconds later, the devil's cannonball comes...... Bullets can't penetrate the trunks of big trees, and you can hide behind trees to find opportunities, but when the shells explode, it's a large area.
Just as Zhang Qingshan and the others ran out about 20 meters away, the first wave of shells fell on the place where they had been ambushed before.
Listening to the dense explosion, watching the bowl of large tree trunks being blown into two by the cannonballs at once, everyone rushed with the strength of milk.
Fortunately, everyone is a soldier and has experienced countless baptisms of war, although they have used all their strength on their legs, they still have some commonplace adaptability to deal with such a scene psychologically, and they are not very panicked, and they still run according to the original retreat route.
And the commander of the little devil probably found that such a dense cannonball blew down, but no one's body was blown away, and there was no scream, he immediately realized that something was wrong, and began to direct the artillery fire to extend to both sides.
However, his command was a little slower by half a beat, and when the shell extended to the place where Zhang Qingshan and them had just now, Zhang Qingshan and they had already run up the mountain.
Subsequently, the unwitting little devil commander judged the attacker's escape route according to his own experience, and still extended to both sides, but Zhang Qingshan and the others ran directly to the top of the mountain, so that the little devil's artillery fire missed the opportunity, so that Zhang Qingshan and the others were able to retreat.
However, looking at the intensive artillery fire of the little devil and the power of the intensive bombardment of the small steel cannon, Zhang Qingshan finally realized why Luo Yingjie and the others rushed away as soon as they saw the artillery fire of the devil's counterattack: under such intensive artillery fire, they have no weapons to counterattack, so for the guerrillas, let alone counterattack, it is the smoke of the ancestral tomb to be able to retreat.
Using the forest as a cover, Zhang Qingshan and his party ran smoothly to the top of the mountain.
Zhang Qingshan first instructed the medical staff to check the injuries of the two wounded, wiped the sweat on his face, and walked towards Hu Yingze and them, who were walking towards him.
"Lao Hu, what do you think of these little devils?"
When Hu Yingze, who was smiling on the front, heard this, the smile on his face gradually retracted, but his brows furrowed slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said two words lightly - "Amazing!"
Zhang Qingshan nodded, did not answer, but looked at Qi Zixuan beside Hu Yingze.
Qi Zixuan replied, "Well-trained. ”
And Tian Guozhong, who was on the left of Qi Zixuan, didn't wait for Zhang Qingshan to look at it, and said directly: "I'll tell you the truth, I don't know how other little devils are, but although these little devils are slightly worse than us, they are more powerful than ordinary warriors." ”
It is indeed true, in terms of the quality of individual soldiers on both sides of the enemy and us at that time, the individual combat ability of well-trained little devils is indeed more powerful than that of our side. Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about rifles, our side can only produce relatively backward rifles such as Hanyang-made and Zhongzheng rifles, but the little devils have been able to design and produce 38 big covers according to their own overall short disadvantage. You must know that the 38 big cover is longer than an ordinary rifle, and this part of this growth is to make up for the lack of height and short hands when the little devil is fighting bayonets. From this point, we can see the overall strength of both the enemy and the enemy.
The layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway!
From the point of view of people who don't understand military affairs, Zhang Qingshan and the others definitely took advantage of it this time: they only injured two, but they killed and injured nearly 20 devils, and they definitely won. However, in the eyes of Zhang Qingshan and the other soldiers, what they saw was not the small bargain in front of them, but the big trouble in the future: whether the devil fought alone or the overall strength, it was far beyond their imagination, so in the future, they would have to fight with the devil much harder, and it made people frown when they thought about it - at first, they thought that the devil was just a little stronger than the national army, but they didn't expect it to be much stronger. Just think about it, if the devils under the mountain are replaced by the national army, and Zhang Qingshan and them come like this, the reaction of the national army is to hug the head of the rat or find cover first to protect themselves, but the devil can cooperate in an orderly manner without anyone commanding, and never panic, which is definitely far better than the national army.
Seeing that the main cadres of these assault regiments are all cherishing words like gold, they are obviously given a lot of blows by the strength of the devils, and then look at the soldiers around them, although some people are indignant about their evaluation, some people bow their heads and are silent, and some are talking to each other...... Judging from their reactions, it is clear that most of the comrades have also been affected.
This is not the morale of an elite army, and it must be corrected immediately.
"Hah, ha, old Hu, that's what you guys see?"
Seeing that everyone looked at it in confusion, Zhang Qingshan deliberately laughed very happily and shouted: "In my opinion, they are just a little more advanced than us in weapons." ”
Then, ignoring Hu Yingze's gaze, he turned to the fighters and shouted: "Comrades, the little devil's weapons are better than ours, this is reality, but it's nothing. Let's think about it, when we used to fight with the national army, at the beginning, we used big knives and spears, and even kitchen knives as our main weapons, but you see, in the past few years, how many weapons and ammunition have we seized from the national army to equip ourselves? Therefore, there is no need to worry, we have to believe in ourselves, since we can snatch their weapons from the national army, then we can also snatch their weapons from the hands of the little devils. At that time, our weapons will be as good as the little devils, or even better than theirs, hey! Lao Tzu really doesn't believe in this evil, and he won't be able to defeat the little devils, comrades, don't you say?"
"Yes!"
Seeing that the eyes of many comrades lit up and their morale was rapidly recovering, Zhang Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said with a smile: "That's right! The little devil also carries a head on two shoulders, and if a bullet goes down, he will also see the king of Hades, so we are still afraid of their fart! They can train, can't Lao Tzu train? They can endure hardships, can't Lao Tzu endure hardships? Isn't that right?"
"Yes!"
At this time, Xiang Tao ran to report that the little devil might be chasing after him to the top of the mountain.
Zhang Qingshan naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to fight with the little devil here, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't: the assault regiment can have just two hundred people in front of him, this is the cornerstone of the assault regiment's force, and it is the seed of the assault regiment, if it is lost here, it will be too cost-effective.
Hurry up and take someone away.
And along the way, Zhang Qingshan and others had a new understanding of the bandits in Sanqiao County and the ability of Luo Yingjie's friends all over the world.
