Chapter 178: Death in the hand-to-hand battle, death, death
A group of people deliberated and discussed, but in the end they ended up without a problem.
Dead and dead is still the same as fighting in Burma, wanting to use Allied aircraft to counterattack, force the Japanese to retreat, and lay a solid foundation for consolidating the position. Chen Yu objected to this, not to mention that there was as many as one wing of Japanese troops on the opposite side, and it was not known whether the main force of the Japanese army could be defeated at this time, and if he did not follow the order of the military headquarters to hold on for five days, the consequences would be Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
The consequence is that the military department finds that the Sichuan Army has attacked without authorization, resulting in the loss of the high ground that strangles the Longmang Highway, and the Sichuan Army will be canceled. This is not an hour, since the Sichuan army left Sichuan, several bloody battles have been annihilated, and the entire regiment is gone, only a battle flag remains. If even the battle flag is lost, what can I do to comfort those comrades who died in battle?
Bu Lai hooked his waist and ran in from outside the trench and said, "Little Dongyang, they are here again." The scouts who were released outside ran back to report that Xiao Dongyang was coming, this time there were no tanks, and they brought a lot of small hand cannons. β
"Grenadier?" Ah Yi and Death looked at each other.
The Japanese had learned this tactic before, relying on a large number of grenadiers to strike at positional fire points, suppressing continuous machine-gun fire, and providing a more comfortable offensive environment for infantry. In the past, Chen Yu chose to engage the Japanese army in a short manner, relying on the superiority in numbers and weapons to inflict heavy losses on the enemy, but now it is different from the past, and it is impossible to engage the Japanese army in a short manner.
"The commanders of each battalion and company returned to their positions to direct the battle, and the heavy gun company, the battle defense artillery company, and the mortar company, and their heavy weapons were assigned to each infantry company, and they fought separately. The three battalions and the tank company did not move as the general reserve.
The Japanese can call, and we can call over. Our artillery is farther and more accurate than them, and the light is better than small-caliber artillery, and the number of artillery in our regiment is comparable to that of a division, not to mention that there are two 75-mm mountain guns, and there are only a few mountain guns in a wing of the Japanese army, what are you afraid of? β
"Everyone immediately entered the position, and the Japanese artillery bombardment began immediately."
Ah Yi pulled his throat and issued a military order: "Heavy weapons are placed in infantry companies, and they fight separately." Give priority to attacking the Japanese firepower points, use the advantage of equipment to wipe out the Japanese troops in front of the position, and not let them step on the position! β
In the forward headquarters, everyone saluted Ah Yi in unison: "Yes!" β
Soon, after the heavy weapons were distributed to the infantry companies, the appetizers of the Japanese army began again. The soldiers on the position squatted in the anti-artillery hole with their heads down, waiting for the artillery bombardment to end, and then obeyed the commander's order to enter the position and begin to counterattack.
Thanks to the military training of Commander A Yi in the past year and a half, although most of the soldiers of the Sichuan Army have not fought a few battles, they do not panic when they encounter the enemy, and they do not panic when they encounter the enemy, and there will not be a panicked scene of the Japanese artillery bombardment. Especially since the expedition again, they were put in a cage after a battle, and more than 2,000 people were holding back a breath of anger.
The people of the Sichuan Army wanted to prove to the military headquarters that it was wise to send us to guard the main road routes, and that the Sichuan Army was capable of withstanding the Japanese attack and buying time for the recovery of Longling.
This time, Chen Yu did not nest in the forward command center, but came to the second battalion position with his annoyance, and he had already gone to the first battalion Zhang Lixian's position, and now there are only A Yi and Master Mai in the forward command center.
In a bunker made of logs and covered with rocks and mud, Chen Yu held the 79 rifle in his hand, closed his eyes and quietly waited for the Japanese artillery fire to end. When one round of artillery fire ended, another began to be fired, which was intermittently dropped on the position.
Annoyed, he tilted his head and pulled Chen Yu's trouser leg: "Hey, man." Before, you said that a regiment of the Friendly Neighbor Division was wiped out, is it true, thousands of people are dead? β
"There are only a few hundred dead left, a division."
"Damn it."
Chen Yu opened his eyes and smiled: "Are you afraid?" Feel like you're a human being now, and you're starting to get scared again? β
"I didn't say I was afraid." Annoyed retorted.
"It's good that you're not afraid."
The shelling continued, and Chen Yu smiled slightly, not ready to continue debating with Annoy. In the past, we were not human, as long as we had a gun and an organization. At present, the Sichuan Army has anti-aircraft artillery, mortars, and mountain artillery, and even other division-level and army-level combat convoys.
Now the Sichuan Regiment can be arrogant and say to others that our regiment is an elite regiment.
Chen Yu is not afraid of breaking the guy's affairs, because there is a person who said don't be afraid to break some bottles and cans, as long as you win, those bottles and cans will come back. The old cannon fodder of the Kechuan Legion is afraid, afraid that if they lose all this, they will no longer have it. They have some signs now, and if Chen Yu doesn't cut it off in time, he will be sure that he will be another warlord army that will only preserve its strength in a few years.
In a short time, the Japanese group artillery fire ended, and the grenadiers carried by the infantry replaced the cluster artillery fire and charged the infantry in cover. A hurried brass whistle sounded in my ears, 'Dripββ! A rapid brass whistle sounded, and the soldiers crouched in the anti-artillery holes came out and began to shoot at the Japanese troops who had advanced to less than 100 meters in front of the position.
Heavy machine guns, light machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, and bullets fired from various firearms converged into a firepower network, and powerful firepower appeared to immediately shoot and kill more than 20 Japanese infantry who rushed to the front.
When the machine-gun fire points on the positions appeared, the Japanese grenadiers began to assemble in the craters, and the light machine gun fire points within reach were prioritized for roll call, and the continuous fire points that hindered the infantry charge were cleared as much as possible.
Then something strange happened, when the Japanese grenadiers and mortars threw the forward light machine gun positions by name, and soon there were shells falling on their heads. The US 60-mm mortars and 37-mm anti-aircraft guns, which had a longer range than them, suppressed and destroyed the Japanese small-caliber guns without pressure.
On the position, the high-explosive grenades fired by the mortars killed and wounded the Japanese troops within a radius of several meters, and the armor-piercing shells of the anti-aircraft guns easily pierced the soil layer and fired accurately at the Japanese troops hiding in the crater.
Chen Yu turned out of the anti-artillery hole and took the binoculars to watch after lying on the sandbag fortifications. It can only be said that Dead Dead is a genius who fights in close quarters, using forward firepower as a bait to induce the appearance of small-caliber artillery of the Japanese army, and then use the advantage of equipment to counterattack again.
It is difficult for the grenades fired by the grenades and mortars of the Japanese army to destroy the light and heavy machine gun groups in the fortifications, but our artillery can easily destroy the Japanese fire points.
After more than ten minutes, although several light and heavy machine gun crews of the Sichuan Corps were destroyed, the light and heavy machine gun crews of the Japanese army had been reimbursed by almost half. Anti-Japanese guns and mortars could even hit Japanese foxholes, and Japanese small-caliber guns and machine gun crews dared to show their heads, and they would be accurately fired by anti-Japanese guns.
Annoyed grinning and said, "The Japanese didn't expect our firepower to be so strong, and they thought that their moves were very clever, but they picked up an egg and hit a stone." β
"This time the Japanese army suffered a loss of no intelligence, they only knew that we had tanks, but they did not know that we still had so many small-caliber artillery. They hit a bag on their heads, and it won't be long before they pull it down. β
Annoyed was full of joy and rolled behind the sandbag, a series of bullets hit the sandbag above his head, Annoyed La subconsciously squatted down, and Chen Yu laughed.
Picking up the 79 rifle that he hadn't used for a long time, Chen Yu also wanted to join in the fun to see how his marksmanship was. The battle was a foregone conclusion, and the Japanese firepower was wiped out under superior artillery fire, and it was impossible to break through to the position and fight for it by relying on rifles and human flesh.
Pull the bolt to check the bullet, then load and aim. Facing the Japanese soldier Cao with the Rising Sun Flag tied to his rifle three hundred meters away, Chen Yu took aim for a moment and then pulled the trigger.
'Bang! β
The bullet entered through the belly of the soldier and fell to the ground in an instant, and the surrounding Japanese troops crawled and pulled the soldier into the foxhole.
Chen Yu slipped down the trench in wonder, he obviously shot his head, why did he hit him in the stomach?
The marksmanship is rusty.
