Chapter Twenty-Eight: Copy: The Songhu War of Resistance (2)
"Hit me hard!"
As soon as the Japanese guns rang out, the three platoons immediately counterattacked, and the dense rain of bullets fired by eight Suomi submachine guns and four Czech machine guns, especially the 70 rounds of drum fire of Suomi submachine guns, was very sustained, and the Japanese army wanted to launch the charge before it was launched, and killed more than ten Japanese soldiers on the spot, and the remaining Japanese soldiers reacted quickly, and immediately looked for cover nearby and launched a confrontation with the third platoon.
"Dadada......!"
Fire suppression began on four machine guns on two armored vehicles of the Japanese army.
The armored vehicle used by the Japanese army is a Vickers armored car imported from the United Kingdom, weighing 7.5 tons, with an armor thickness of six millimeters, two 7.7 mm heavy machine guns, and a crew of five people.
"Bang bang...... Bang bang!"
The two anti-tank fighters of the three-platoon fire squad, who had been aiming for a long time, fired quickly when the Japanese Vickers armored car had just opened fire, the first shot was on the right shoulder, the second shot was on the left shoulder, and after the two anti-tank men finished firing, the secondary shooter immediately stepped forward to take over the main shooter who was unable to shoot again and aimed at the Japanese Vickers armored car.
The two Japanese Vickers armored vehicles that were hit, one burned and caught fire, and the crew members who were lucky enough to survive ran out of the car screaming and were immediately shot, and the other was silent, no one caught fire and no one ran out, and the occupants inside should have all been killed.
Lost the Vickers armored car as a big killer, this Japanese army occupied an absolute disadvantage in the confrontation with the third platoon, the only two automatic weapons Taisho 11 light machine gun, that is, commonly known as the crooked handle machine gun, also left aside and no one dared to use it, this is because the accurate shooters in the third platoon stared at these two machine guns, the Japanese machine gunners were killed at the beginning of the war, and then all the Japanese soldiers who wanted to use the crooked machine guns were all killed, and the Japanese corpses of the two crooked machine guns were poured around, so the remaining Japanese soldiers no longer dared to touch the two machine guns。
The Japanese troops attacking Zhabei were beaten to the ground on the position of Ouyang Yu's army, and suffered heavy casualties, but they fought relatively smoothly with the 6th Regiment of the 156th Brigade of the 19th Route Army.
The soldiers of the Sixth Regiment, which were responsible for defending Tiantongan Station and Shanghai North Railway Station, were caught off guard by the Japanese army's sneak attack, and the hastily organized defense could not stop the Japanese attack, and Tiantongan Station and Shanghai North Railway Station were lost one after another.
Zhang Junsong, the commander of the sixth regiment, held a telescope and observed the second wave of counterattack teams, after the loss of Tiantongan Station and Shanghai North Railway Station, he immediately ordered the troops to launch a counterattack, wanting to recapture these two vital railway stations, but all failed to be beaten back by the Japanese army, and now the second counterattack is not going well, the Japanese army relies on the strong buildings of the railway station and strong firepower to the counterattacking Chinese army with great damage, especially the number of machine guns killed and injured on the three Vickers armored vehicles, the three Vickers armored vehicles are arranged in a finished font, and the Japanese soldiers take the Vickers armored car as the fire output point, under the key protection, the soldiers of the VITH regiment, lacking anti-armor weapons, simply could not have come close to blowing up.
"Tell all the brothers to withdraw. ”
Zhang Junsong saw through the binoculars that the soldiers of the Sixth Regiment who launched the second counterattack were suppressed by the three Vickers armored vehicles 200 meters away, plus several crooked machine guns and Type 92 heavy machine guns, as well as the accurate marksmanship of the Japanese soldiers, as long as the soldiers of the Sixth Regiment dared to show their heads, they would die to serve the country.
"Good news. ”
Just when Zhang Junsong was at a loss, Liang Dai, the deputy head of the regiment, walked up to him with a telegram and said: "I just received a telegram from the commander of the new 38th regiment, Commander Ouyang, that all the Japanese troops attacking the position of the new 38th regiment have been repulsed, and some have even been completely annihilated, destroying several armored vehicles.
Zhang Junsong's impression of Ouyang Yu is not very good, judging people by appearance is a common problem for most peopleZhang Junsong is no exception, in his opinion, it is a major problem to let a delicate girl who is less than twenty years old, serve as the head of a strengthened regiment, and that little girl also likes to dress up as a man, and her speech is also old-fashioned, Zhang Junsong can't look at Ouyang Yu well, and now she hears that she not only repelled the Japanese attack but even launched a counterattack, and it is not a taste in her heart.
However, at the moment of the national disaster, Zhang Junsong is not a person who is willful, and he will not let his soldiers sacrifice in vain for the sake of his own face, so he said without hesitation: "Call back to Regiment Commander Ouyang and ask her to support a batch of anti-tank guns and light machine guns." "At present, the biggest problem of the counteroffensive of the sixth regiment is the lack of anti-armor weapons, Ouyang Yu's troops he has visited, and the equipment is much better than his sixth regiment, especially each platoon has two anti-tank rifles, and each squad has a Czech light machine gun, which impresses him the most.
"Yes, I'm going to call you back. ”
About half an hour later, there was a roar of cars, and Ouyang Yu took her fourth battalion, armored company, and artillery company to Zhang Junsong's headquarters at Shanghai North Railway Station.
Zhang Junsong walked out of the headquarters and greeted Ouyang Yu and asked, "Commander Ouyang, why are you here in person?"
"I heard that your regiment has been attacking Shanghai North Railway Station for a long time, and my brothers have suffered heavy casualties, so in addition to sending the weapons needed to Commander Zhang, I also brought my tank company and artillery company over to assist Commander Zhang in destroying Little Japan. ”
Zhang Junsong excitedly held Ouyang Yu's hands tightly and said gratefully: "Thank you so much Commander Ouyang, with the weapons you provided and the support of the tank company and artillery company, brother, I have the confidence to wipe out all the little Japan entrenched in the train station!"
Ouyang Yu's hand was pinched by Zhang Junsong, and he couldn't break free, and the expression of pain on his face made Zhang Junsong let go of her hands, Ouyang Yu shook the little hand that was pinched and hurt and glared at Zhang Junsong fiercely, Zhang Junsong's old face was red and smiled embarrassedly, and quickly invited Ouyang Yu into the headquarters, and then poured her a glass of water to make amends.
With Ouyang Yu's support, the morale of the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Regiment increased greatly, and they were ready to give little Japan a good look.
Ouyang Yu brought ten mortars in addition to the artillery company, and after intense preparations, the eight 1902 76.2mm field guns of Ouyang Yu Artillery Company roared together with ten light mortars.
Under the ferocious artillery fire, the Japanese temporarily built fortifications with sandbags were similar to those made of mud, and the shells not only blew up the fortifications, but also killed the Japanese soldiers hiding inside, and the human stumps continued to fly high and fall heavily.
In particular, the three Vickers armored vehicles that were the focus of the attack received the most shells, the six-millimeter-thick armor could withstand ordinary bullets but could not withstand the shells, one was hit head-on by a field shell and disintegrated on the spot, one was overturned to the ground and lost its combat effectiveness, and the remaining turret was hit by a ** shot, and all five crew members inside died.
The fifteen-minute shelling sent hundreds of shells to the Japanese positions, and the Japanese troops entrenched at the Shanghai North Railway Station were overturned.
"Brothers, rush me!"
The soldiers of the 6th Regiment, who had just stopped the shelling, charged under the cover of light and heavy machine guns, and the Japanese soldiers who had not yet recovered from the shelling hurriedly defended, and by the light of the fire burning from the shelling, the Japanese soldiers saw twenty-four tall black shadows.
"The chariot of China!"
"Boom!"
The Japanese soldier who had just shouted the above sentence was bombarded with a cannon and was reduced to debris.
Although the soldiers of the Sixth Regiment had not been trained in the coordinated tactics of infantry and tan, they instinctively knew to hide behind the tank and let the tank resist the enemy's bullets for themselves, so behind the twenty-four tanks of Ouyang Yu's army, the soldiers of the Sixth Regiment lined up in a long line and followed the tank forward.
The remnants of the Japanese light and heavy machine guns in the Shanghai North Railway Station rang out non-stop, and the dense bullets flew on the armor of the BT-2 and T-26 tanks, but they could not stop the advance of these steel monsters, but instead exposed their positions, Ouyang Yujun's tanks were named one by one, and the machine guns were blown into the sky along with the machine gunners.
"Dada......!"
Each tank was an active point of fire, forty-eight machine guns on the twenty-four tanks were constantly firing, this time it was the turn of the Japanese army to be beaten and could not raise their heads, and when they approached a hundred meters, the soldiers of the sixth regiment dispersed, forming three scattered lines distributed around the tanks of Ouyang Yu's army, in order to prevent the attack of the Japanese death squad with bombs strapped.
The Japanese army, known as the first army in Asia, actually lacked a lot of anti-tank weapons, and the tank Japanese soldiers of Ouyang Yu's army could only learn from the Chinese army on the opposite side to fight with human lives.
In a Japanese hidden bunker, Rentaro Sogawajima said to the dozens of soldiers who had organized: "Gentlemen, now is the time to serve our Imperial Japanese Empire and His Majesty the Emperor, each of you is tied to an explosive bag, as long as you blow up the chariot of the Shina people, you can repel their attack, please." Rentaro Kawashima bowed to the soldiers in front of him.
The mobilized Japanese soldiers bowed and saluted, and then silently tied up the explosives bag with the help of other soldiers and lined up to leave the bunker.
