The attacking Japanese troops fully deployed in front of the position within five minutes.
The infantry spread out in front of the position and rushed forward.
The Japanese infantry that directly launched the attack had the strength of two squadrons.
There seemed to be more troops following behind the Japanese troops.
Advanced heavy machine gun group.
Those in the trenches were ready for battle.
Apart from the friction of gun bolts, there was no other sound in the position.
Everyone was staring at the Japanese troops coming from the front.
The preparation battalion was in the center, flanked by the 276th Regiment. of the two battalions, the Japanese troops rushing over now dispersed in several ways The military line spread out and spread out in front of the position.
The Japanese army was still more than a hundred meters away from the position.
Every moment, the distance between the two armies continued to shrink.
There was no movement on the preparation camp's position.
At this moment, the Japanese forward was about 100 meters away.
At one hundred thirty or forty meters, gunfire suddenly rang out from the left wing position.
"Bang" Accidents always happen on the battlefield.
Under the leadership of Zhang Wei's strict training and distribution of veterans, the preparation camp's shooting discipline is quite strict on weekdays.
Things like firing guns in advance rarely happen in the preparation camp.
The two armies were still far apart.
At this juncture, soldiers on the friendly positions on the left fired their guns in advance.
The sound of gunfire made Zhang Wei extremely uncomfortable.
The situation of firing guns indiscriminately was already very unfamiliar to Zhang Wei.
The preparation battalion had sufficient training.
The two newly formed companies, the Second Company and the Third Company, had infantry squads in each company.
It is guaranteed to have three veterans or non-commissioned officers.
The recruits in the preparation camp received the instruction during training: It is better to shoot later than to shoot early.
These peasant soldiers from Hunan carried out Zhang Wei's instructions very well under preferential treatment and strict training.
In the actual battle, the combat skills of the soldiers in the preparation camp cannot be said to be proficient, but they will not make such stupid mistakes.
Now, if anyone fires his gun in advance, he will be laughed at by his fellow soldiers.
The situation is different for friendly forces.
The stall is too big and there are too many new soldiers.
At this time, some soldiers still fired their guns without receiving the order to fire.
Fortunately, after the soldier opened fire, the people around him did not follow suit, causing a chain reaction, and he was quickly stopped by the officer.
After all, the 46th Division is a unit based on the 4,000 veterans of the training corps who broke out of the encirclement.
In addition, the actual combat in East Henan has been so long that it is not a big problem to suppress the bullets and fire guns indiscriminately.
If it were replaced by another unit, it might cause the entire position to open fire. .
"Prepare" After the gunshot, the Japanese troops were closer and were about to be within firing range.
The soldiers began to press the triggers and focus on their targets.
"Fire!"
Zhang Wei shouted.
The positions of the preparation battalion and the friendly positions opened fire almost simultaneously.
The defensive positions of the three battalions produced fierce firepower.
More than 500 rifles and dozens of light machine guns formed a firepower network, giving the attacking Japanese troops a hard blow.
Almost half of the forward Japanese troops were defeated.
The Japanese troops quickly adjusted their attack posture and organized suppressive and counterattack firepower.
The assault team and the light machine gun team each performed their duties, either attacking forward, or moving forward as hard as they could and then firing on the spot to cover the attack.

The attacking Japanese troops were large, with more than 300 people exposed in front of the position.
The defenders in the position had only one goal, which was to hold the position and prepare the battalion for defense.
Except for the attached mortar platoon, no fire was received.
The orders were still on standby, and the rest were fighting hard.
Zhang Wei's temporary command position was in the center of the first company.
The Japanese troops in front of him were blocked by the firepower of three battalions, and their advance was blocked.
They were all moving forward at a distance of less than a hundred meters. .
"Advance grenade fire" The Japanese sergeants and squad leaders who led the attack immediately organized suppressive firepower.
The Japanese grenade launchers opened fire on the defenders' positions behind the light machine guns, and falling bombs began to appear in the trenches.
"It's a grenade."
Two grenades fell into the trench of the preparation camp.
After the explosion, there was a brief pause in the firepower on the position.
Upon seeing this, the assaulting Japanese infantry rushed forward.
One company was also equipped with six grenades. , after being bombed, prepare to fight back with a grenade.
"Don't fight back with grenade launchers so early.
Stop and bring the Japanese closer."
Zhang Wei stopped a company of grenade launchers from firing.
Now the Japanese army is not close enough to even throw a grenade to greet them.
Zhang Wei plans to use only rifles and light and heavy machine guns Fight back, put the Japanese troops within fifty meters, that is, within the greeting distance of the grenades, and then use grenades, grenade launchers, and two 82 mortars behind the position to concentrate firepower, plus the steel attached to those grenades.
Ding, I guarantee that the Japanese will drink from it.
"Pass my order to each company.
Wait until the signal is within fifty meters and throw grenades in unison.
The grenade launchers of one company will fire together with the mortars behind."
Zhang Wei said to the three messengers around him.
Without the infantry, In the absence of telephones and field calls, verbal transmission of orders was the only available method, and the three messengers followed Zhang Wei for a long time.
After a while, the three of them tacitly assigned the tasks in Zhang Wei's order.
One person went to the mortar position in the rear and told them to wait for the grenades in front before firing.
The other two bent down and crouched down, swimming around in the position.
While walking, repeat the order to notify the company and platoon commanders of the order.
At the same time, repeating it in the position can also let the soldiers know the instruction.
The soldiers in the preparation camp only used rifles and machine guns to shoot at the Japanese army.
The Japanese army had high shooting skills, but the shooting skills of the soldiers in the preparation camp were also increasing.
The two armies shot at each other within a distance of 70 to 80 meters.
The Japanese army Exposed outside the position, the casualties from the firing were not small.
The Japanese light machine guns and grenade launchers covered the infantry assault, and grenades were thrown into the position from time to time. .
The Japanese troops who attacked the preparation camp quickly realized the shooting skills of the enemy in person.
In the past, this style of fighting was their favorite.
Shooting at each other, the Japanese army's quality advantage could be greatly brought into play, and in the preparation camp position In the past, the Japanese army did not have a great advantage in the exchange of fire.
The veterans in the preparation camp were not evenly matched with the Japanese army, but at least they could fight back and forth.
Although the skills of the new recruits were inferior, they were still quite accurate.
"Baga, speed up the assault, use the grenade to suppress the enemy's position."
A Japanese squadron leader witnessed the death of a soldier next to him.
They were attacking the position in charge of the preparation battalion.
A bullet from a veteran of the first company of the preparation battalion accurately hit the target.
Hit the soldier on the chest, the Japanese squadron leader's keen Realizing that the squadron they were attacking had more advanced shooting skills and combat qualities, they immediately ordered the assault to be accelerated.

With the shooting skills of the "Imperial Army", no matter how good the enemy's shooting was, the Imperial Army would not suffer the greater casualties. , but he didn't want to increase casualties in vain, so he had to hurry up and capture the position.
"Speed up the assault" "Boom boom" several grenades flew towards the preparation camp's position.
After a grenade group of the Japanese army opened fire, it happened to be targeted by a turntable machine gun from the preparation camp.
A series of machine gun bullets killed the shooter and injured the loader during the transfer of the grenade group.
The Soviet turntable machine gun The advantage of large ammunition supply was immediately revealed.
The Japanese army kept getting closer, perhaps due to the fierce firing from the rifle machine guns of the preparatory camp.
The effect of this round of grenade shooting was not good.
Most of the grenades hit the outside of the trench and did not cause much damage to the personnel in the trench
