Chapter 408

Gou Yu was reprimanded by the company commander and was a little excited, sighed secretly, and saw that no one paid attention to him anymore, so he had to walk to the side alone, muttering sullenly.

As time passed, a cold wind blew in the sky, and the clouds slowly obscured the moonlight in the sky, and the twinkling stars were long gone.

"God's face has changed, it looks like it's going to rain." The company commander said to himself.

At this moment, the temperature plummeted, and the already dark night sky was even more invisible, and everyone on the battlefield was shivering from the cold, and they all felt the cold wind.

"This hellish weather is still waiting here to blow the cold wind..."The dog leftover involuntarily tightened the clothes on his body, trying to shrink his neck into the collar, and began to complain impatiently in his heart.

"Huh? What is it? ”

Suddenly, a bush more than twenty meters away shook slightly, and the companions were still aware of it, but the dog leftovers with keen senses noticed the movement.

At first, he thought it was the cause of the high wind, but after looking at it for a while, he realized that it was wrong, and the direction in which the bushes were swaying was not at all the same as the surrounding grass that was bent by the wind.

"What man!?"

Boom!

The dog leftover subconsciously leaned out and shouted, but what answered him was a piercing gunshot.

"There are enemies!"

"Damn, call me!"

The company commander shouted, and the surrounding soldiers hurriedly opened fire, and in an instant, the gunfire on the position was loud, and the little devil saw that he had been exposed, and he no longer hid and immediately launched a counterattack.

Da Da...!

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The grenade exploded into flames, and the two sides frantically output firepower in this darkness, and the company commander bent over to the place where the dog fell to the ground, and hurriedly asked, "How are the people?" ”

The comrade-in-arms next to him shook his head with an ugly face. I saw a bloody hole in the little guy's chest, and the blood stained his entire chest, and the bullet had taken his life through his body.

Crash!

The company commander was furious, pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded the bullet, his face was covered with gloom, and without saying a word, he raised his hand and fired several shots at the outside of the trench.

Dense bullets accompanied by the light of fire stirred in all directions in the darkness, as if causing a chain reaction, various explosions along the entire defense line were deafening, and the figure of little devils continued to emerge from those woods and bushes.

"Holy shit, it's really dripping at night, what's the situation ahead?" He asked as he got out of the bunker and put his gear on his body.

"The second battalion has already received the fire, and the first battalion is leaning over, acting commander, do you want our third battalion to go up too?" The third battalion commander hurriedly asked.

It is hard to imagine that the Japanese actually touched the front of them unconsciously, but fortunately let the second battalion be on guard at the front of the position in advance, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

After pondering for a while, he decided to seek stability: "Don't move your three battalions, prepare in place, I'm worried that Little Japan is not as simple as a night attack." ”

The violent sound of gunfire echoed in the night sky, and the soldiers could not see clearly in front of them in the dark battle, so they could only shoot in the general direction.

The little devils took great pains for this operation, in order to get as close to the enemy as possible without making any movement, they sent a lot of skilled sharp knife soldiers to clear the various secret posts first, so that they could get so close to the position of the second battalion but were not discovered.

Moreover, the Japanese were outnumbered, and the sudden offensive made it difficult for the fighters to parry, and the forward line of defense became precarious.

The company commander held his breath and stared, and the Garand rifle with both hands did not tremble, although it was difficult to see the target clearly in the dark night, but the fire snake that erupted from the barrel not far away exposed the location of the little devil's firepower.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He pulled the trigger with his index finger and fired several shots, and the machine gun fire point of the devil stopped abruptly in an instant, and the surrounding soldiers also took the opportunity to throw a few grenades forward, knocking back the approaching Japanese soldiers again.

"Lao Jiu! The devil is rushing up, why don't you fire the cannon yet? ”

Whoosh...

The company commander pressed the new magazine into the magazine, and poked his head out of the trench slightly, and within a few seconds, another fiery snake swept in, so frightened that he quickly shrank back.

The soldier named Lao Jiu replied in a loud voice: "It's too close, the mortar can't reach it!" ”

"Company commander, there's no grenade here!"

At this time, the little devil had already rushed to a place less than 30 meters away from the position, and if it weren't for the desperate resistance of the soldiers, I am afraid that the defense line would have been pierced by the other party.

"Brothers, hold on, reinforcements will be there soon!" The company commander shouted loudly, if this place is lost, the entire position of the regiment will be in danger.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered what Junzuo said last time that mortar shells can be used as grenades, and patted his head in annoyance: "Quick! Bring me the mortar shells! ”

"Didn't you say... It's too close to hit. Lao Jiu muttered, but still carried a box of mortar shells as instructed.

As a veteran gunner, Lao Jiu knows very well the range of the American-made M2 mortar, and the landing point of the shell with the maximum elevation angle is about 90 meters, and the devil is too close, if he moves to the back of the position to shoot, he may accidentally injure his own people, and the gains outweigh the losses.

The company commander didn't explain so much, opened the box and took out a shell, recalled the memories in his mind, pulled out the shell safe, and then grabbed the shell body and slammed the primer the base of the mortar shell.

"Walk you!"

The cannonball was thrown out by him heavily, and it smashed into an open space more than ten meters away in an arc.

Rumble!

The shells exploded violently, and the flying shrapnel instantly blew up several little devils who tried to charge into a blur of flesh and blood.

"Haha, see if you don't see it, just do it, give me a good greeting to these little Japan!"

The method of throwing mortar shells as grenades is feasible, and the soldiers of many countries have used this trick in World War II, but there is also a certain risk in this method, and it is purely used as a last resort.

The specific method of use is also very simple, the mortar shell has a bent steel wire safety pin at the warhead part, and this safety pin must be unplugged before use, regardless of whether it is fired with the barrel or not. After the safety pin is removed, the shell is in a state of waiting to be fired, and then find a relatively hard object, and knock the bottom of the tail fin of the shell vertically, imitating the shell to slide down in the barrel and shoot low, so that the inertia safety is released. At this time, the entire shell is in a state of waiting to be fired, and after the shell is thrown, the warhead at the front end of the shell hits the ground, and the shell can be detonated.

As soon as the veterans saw that this trick was feasible, they immediately learned the company commander's movements to pull out the safety and knock on the base... Mortar shells were thrown in front of them like grenades, and the sudden strong firepower made the Japanese army miserable...
