Chapter 1187: Flamethrower!
On the sixth day of the siege, fierce fighting continued in the jungle, and the dangerous area of the caves held by the American troops became the main area of fire, and the devils and Burmese launched fierce attacks around these caves.
"Boom, boom......"
Facing the machine-gun bunker at the entrance of the cave, the Burmese climbed up the cliff and threw grenades into the cave.
"Ahh
In the explosion, the machine gunner and ammunition man were all scrapped, along with the roaring machine gun.
"Sudden ......"
Inside the cave, Thomson suddenly shot at the entrance of the cave, sniping at possible enemies.
Several soldiers dragged the two soldiers who fell to the ground, too late to see if they were still alive, just trying to drag them in.
"Withdraw, withdraw......"
"Here, on the machine gun mount, fire when you see a shadow!"
The officer shouted, estimating the grenade throwing distance, looking at the conditions of the cave, and moved the machine-gun bunker to a distance of ten meters from the entrance of the cave, behind which there was a passage from which two soldiers were dragged out.
Not only here, in all directions of the jungle, the gunfire has not stopped, just like Feng Yi said, the enemy has more troops than them, in this jungle area, they have no ** battle, they can only fight with the enemy, as for the reserve, then only who survives will be the reserve.
Feng Yi dared to defend here, he originally expected that the enemy would only be about 10,000 people, so with twice the strength, he could not break through, but at least he could hold on; But judging from the battle situation from yesterday to today, Feng Ye felt that he was facing not twice as many troops, as for how much, he was not supported by intelligence now, and it was really unclear.
"Commander Han, in half an hour, the 114th Regiment will launch an attack to the north of your department, please pay attention!"
On the seventh day, Sun Liren finally walked out of the Savage Mountain, but he couldn't attack immediately, he was waiting for the airdrop, and his brothers had limited ammunition with them, especially heavy weapons and a large number of shells and bullets, so they had to rely on the empty head to solve the problem.
"Received, in half an hour, the first battalion and three companies will cooperate in launching a counteroffensive."
Han Shaogong gritted his teeth, his hard days were finally over, and reinforcements came.
"Da Da Da ......"
In the jungle, there is never artillery cover before the battle, because you don't know where the enemy's positions are. Where their bunkers were, they could only make tentative attacks with infantry, exposing the enemy himself.
"Get down!"
The officers who were trying to attack shouted, guns raised, and they fought back.
"Da Da Da ......"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
Lin Zili, the expeditionary force appeared in an unexpected place, and the light and heavy machine guns of the devils shot at the expeditionary force brothers who emerged from the forest.
"Humph!"
The brothers of the expeditionary force lay on the ground, staring at the position of the machine guns, the corners of their mouths smiling, recording the fire points one after another, which would become the target of their mountain artillery and mortars.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
After a random bombardment, the infantry continued to attack, but the shells did not seem to work, and the devils and Burmese set up strong deer barricades, tunnels and pillboxes in Lin Zili, and blocked the attack of the expeditionary force with heavy fire.
"Company commander, I can't go up, there are too many firepower points, and the brothers have been beaten down again."
The platoon commander of the attack was dejected and withdrew with his brothers.
"Keep attacking, keep the pressure on, I'll have a platoon to match you from the left flank."
If the front is not good, they will find a way to outflank them from the side, which is the consistent practice of the officers to solve the fixed firing point, but this is also the tactics commonly used by the devils, of course they have guarded, in the fierce gunfire, for a whole day, the 114th Regiment was on a long front, in the woods without an inch.
"The new 38th Division has begun to attack."
Inside the Nameless Village Headquarters, Feng and Kinnison received a telegram, which also signaled that they could finally start the official time.
"Feng, will the enemy here reinforce the front line of the state, then our pressure will be much less."
Kinnison imagines the bright side.
"It's possible, but it's not very promising."
Feng Ye has a different view.
"Oh?"
Kinnison didn't understand that the Yubang defense line was something that the devils had to defend, so how could they give up somewhere?
"Maybe they will increase their attack, and the pressure on us will increase dramatically, and maybe the enemy will not care about the wounded and forget."
Feng Yi frowned, this was exactly what he was most worried about.
"How many flamethrowers are there?"
Feng Yi looked up and asked his quartermaster.
"Two hundred!"
The quartermaster staff officer answered Feng Yi's question.
"Enough!"
"Order all departments, after dark, be on alert, if the enemy attacks, there is no certainty, it is strictly forbidden to fight to the death with the enemy, take the company as a unit, occupy the main position, and strictly defend it!"
Feng Ye decided to stick to the main defensive position at night and abandon most of the area, so that his brother's losses in the dark night might be minimized; In the past few days, most of their casualties have come from the night, and during the day when the sight is good, the brethren of the commando team adhere to the way of hitting and running, relying on the jungle and the enemy to harass the enemy, so that the enemy is constantly decreasing, and they still preserve their own strength, but this way, at night without sight, they do not know whether they will be ambushed by the enemy on the way to retreat.
"Feng, what about the southeast? What to do with the cave? ”
Hearing Feng Ye say this, Kinnison was anxious, other areas are jungles, even if they are counterattacking during the day, it is very easy to do, but the cave is not good, once the enemy enters, if they dare to go out again, it will cost a lot of money, the terrain in the cave, no matter who it is, will receive great casualties when attacking.
"Hold on to the caves in Area Three, give up the rest of the caves, and tomorrow, let your soldiers use flamethrowers to give them a taste of fire."
Feng Ye squinted, the cave was the best place to use the flamethrower, the bullet would not bend, but the flame could.
On the eighth day, it was dawn, and Fujii Osa was very happy, because of the presence of fortifications, Yu Bang's front line did not allow the allies to move forward, and here, his attack also progressed, because his soldiers had cleared the cave area, only a small part was left, and at the current progress, in two more days, the enemy here would not exist.
At the same time, the attacks of the 114th Regiment were frustrated one after another on the front line of Yubang, and the casualties continued to increase. And the 112th Regiment in the encirclement was in a situation of encirclement after the initial excitement, the morale of this time was greatly reduced, the second battalion was killed, and the whole first battalion fell into the situation of being surrounded again, because they got into the enemy's trap in the counterattack.
"Low, low!"
At this time, around the nameless village, dozens of soldiers crept into the cave with iron cans on their backs and nozzles in their hands.
"Da Da Da ......"
"Boom, boom......"
Inside the cave, the gunfire became more and more intense, and the Japanese machine guns blocked the space of the cave, covering the infantry to climb over, throwing grenades at the opposite side, and advancing step by step.
"Be careful!"
In the midst of the fierce gunfire, the two soldiers leaned against the wall of the cave, watching the bullets flying in front of them keep burrowing into the wall of the cave.
"Huhuhu......"
The two men nodded at the same time, stopped around the corner, pulled the trigger of the jet, and a cloud of flames headed straight for the cave behind the corner.
