Chapter 178: Outflanking the Left Wing


The two different sounds of the Type 92 heavy machine gun and the crooked light machine gun were intertwined.

The machine gun bullets greatly improved the hit rate when fired at close range.

The bullets hit a continuous position, and the rhythm of continuous counterattacks was gradually disrupted.

The casualties of the soldiers also began to increase.

The Japanese rifle team took this opportunity to move forward hard, although every step forward had to pay a price. x "Squad leader, I can't beat you."

In the defensive position of a company, a squad of soldiers squatted in a trench.

Debris from bullets continued to fall from the trench above their heads.

Most of the Japanese bullets hit the trench, making it difficult for the soldiers to raise their heads and fight back.

The squad leader didn't say anything.

He raised his rifle above his head, stretched it out of the trench, pulled the trigger, and fired a blind shot.

The light machine gunner did the same, firing without exposing his body outside the trench, and the accuracy rate was greatly reduced.

Due to the close-range shooting of Japanese machine gun fire, this kind of scene can be seen everywhere in the company's position.

The damage caused by the company to the Japanese troops in front plummeted, disrupting the shooting rhythm.

The soldiers of the company who could not shoot continuously could only find gaps in the Japanese fire.

Fighting back or shooting blindly, some soldiers squatted in the trenches and threw grenades. .

"Assault" machine gun fire and grenade launchers suppressed a company's position.

The pressure on the Japanese rifle team suddenly decreased.

Under the orders of the sergeant and squad leader, they quickly launched an attack.

At this time, the main casualty to the Japanese army was Two heavy machine guns from the right wing of the second-line position.

The two machine guns were located behind the first-line position.

It was difficult for the bullets fired by the Japanese heavy machine guns to hit accurately.

Therefore, the two side-firing heavy machine guns maintained continuity of firepower and the bullets killed the charging Japanese troops. .

A rifle group was just about to approach the front line position when one person was hit by a heavy machine gun bullet fired from the side.

Two grenades flew out of the line, and the shrapnel from the explosion affected the remaining two people.

The shrapnel was mixed with the smoke screen caused by the explosion. , the heavy machine guns on the third company position stepped up their fire, sweeping left and right to increase the killing surface, and the bullets also entered the smoke screen caused by the explosion of grenades.

After the explosion, there were three more corpses on the ground, and the same was true around them.

The heavy machine gun fired from the side had a large wound area.

Coupled with the bullets and continuous grenades fired from time to time, the attack was still difficult.

Zhang Wei was standing next to the heavy machine gun and witnessed the Japanese army being blocked by the side fire of the heavy machine gun.

Although the Japanese army suffered a lot of casualties at this time, they still moved forward determinedly and kept moving.

Very few people took the initiative to take the initiative in the continuous position. , there was only intermittent shooting, and only grenades were continuous.

It is difficult to rely solely on explosions and two continuous heavy machine gun firepower as a backbone.

Almost all the Japanese squadron has entered a range of 100 meters.

It is difficult to stop the Japanese attack by itself alone, plus the Japanese grenades.

Although it was difficult for the Japanese army to attack and advance under cover, the casualties suffered by the company were already considerable.

In the first company position, a corporal opened the firing line of the grenade.

The grenade with white smoke flew out quickly and fell in front of the Japanese army.

The surrounding Japanese soldiers rolled to both sides to avoid shrapnel.

A sergeant saw this.

Not good, He directly grabbed the grenade and threw it towards the first company position.

The corporal was still squatting in the position when he saw an iron lump hit the trench behind him and rolled behind the sandbags on the trench.

It was the grenade he threw. .

As soon as "Mother" lay down, the grenade exploded.

The sandbags piled up around him worked, weakening the explosive force and blocking the shrapnel.

The corporal was lying in a deep trench.

Fortunately, the trench was dug deep and the fortifications were well done.

The grenade explosion only caused the corporal a calf injury and a temporary coma.

The grenade blew down the sandbags behind the fortifications and piled them on the corporal, blocking the access to the trench.

The surrounding soldiers quickly climbed over to clean up and treat him.

"Fire, brothers, hold on."

Qiu Wei walked around in the trenches, organizing the soldiers to fight back as much as possible to avoid chaos.

As long as Zhang Wei's order was not given, the position must be controlled with all his strength.

Zhang Wei looked at the front line.

The Japanese troops on the front were constantly advancing under the cover of strong firepower.

The first company position could only try its best to delay but could not completely block it.

On the left wing of the third company position, the outflanking Japanese troops were about to approach.

Now we must do our best to protect the front line and first company position and prepare.

Deal with the Japanese troops outflanked by the left wing.

"Guards, go to the mortar position and order them to concentrate their firepower on the Japanese troops in front of the first company position and open fire with all their strength."

Use mortars to support the first company's position, use all your strength to delay the Japanese troops on the front line, and then concentrate the left wing of the third company to deal with the Japanese squad that is outflanked by the left wing, blocking them and preventing them from threatening the preparation battalion's position in two directions at the same time.

"Boom, boom, boom" The mortars located behind the positions of the 1st and 3rd companies sprayed out shells.

In a burst of rapid fire, seven or eight rounds of 82 mortar shells fell in front of the 1st company, causing a large number of casualties to the front-line assaulting Japanese troops.

The explosion caused the Japanese troops to The covering fire had to be suspended, and the officers and soldiers of the first company took the opportunity to stand up from the trenches and took this opportunity to pour firepower on the Japanese troops in front of the position.

"Brothers, take advantage of the enemy's illness and take his life.

Beat him."

He Kun, a company attached to the company, held a Zhongzheng gun in his hand and stood up first to shoot at the Japanese troops in front of them.

The officers and soldiers of the company, who had been holding back for a long time, burst into rapid fire.

After the first round of mortar shelling, the bullets hit the front of the position.

The Japanese army paid a heavy price under the double blow of artillery shells and bullets.

As of this time, Captain Sakamoto's second squadron had suffered casualties of not only one squad, but seven out of ten.

The mortars provided strong support to the First Company, and the tug-of-war situation on the front line changed.

The balance that was originally tilted towards the Japanese army gradually returned to a balanced state.

The shelling continued.

The First Company and the Japanese army in front of the formation continued an evenly matched attack. .

Zhang Wei's goal has been achieved, and now he has to deal with the Japanese troops outflanked by the left wing.

After the battle began, the Japanese troops outflanked by the left wing never launched a blatant attack.

They just kept approaching the left wing position of the third company on the left wing.

Zhang Wei came up from the strength of the troops.

Look, there seems to be a small group.

The purpose of the Japanese army may be to outflank the preparation camp with a small force on the left wing, and then let the frontal assault troops attack at the same time, breaking through the preparation camp position in one fell swoop.

The tactics were good, but it was a pity that the Japanese army underestimated the combat effectiveness and firepower of the front-line troops of the preparation camp.

After so many battles, the basic combat quality of the veterans of the company was not much worse than the average level of the Japanese army.

Many of them were veterans of the former teaching corps, so their combat quality was naturally not bad.

In addition, the preparation battalion is fully equipped with light and heavy machine guns and has good firepower.

The original tactical purpose of the Japanese army will inevitably not be successfully achieved.

Zhang Wei came to the left wing of the Third Company's position.

The heavy firepower deployed on the left wing included two heavy machine guns.

Zheng Yiqun strictly followed Zhang Wei's orders and did not allow the troops on the left wing of the Third Company to open fire.

"How's the situation?"

Zhang Wei patted Zheng Yiqun's shoulder to encourage him.

"Battal Commander, there are about fifty or sixty Japanese.

They didn't fire.

They just kept moving forward.

They probably wanted to go around from the left."

"The abacus was good, but it was a pity that the combat effectiveness of the first company was underestimated.

I ordered the entire third company to prepare for battle." r:
