Flames, explosions, screams, a terrible image on the north bank of the Biaoguan River, the strikers of the 112th Wing were hit hard, everyone was stunned, the Japanese troops gathered on the north bank were either prostrate on the ground, or were killed and wounded by the fragments flying on the bridge deck, and the sudden shells made these Japanese soldiers stupid.
In the face of the river, corpses, weapon fragments and car parts floated everywhere, and the smell of gasoline explosions burning corpses permeated the bridgehead on the north bank of the Biaoguan River, making every living Japanese soldier sick.
In this round of shelling, after the explosion of three hit shells, the elite of the 112th Wing was sharply reduced to more than 450 people, and lost two-thirds of the spare ammunition "It's a beautiful fight, tell you Company Commander Xu, I'll give him light skills with Division Commander Dai when I go back, it's enough for your artillery to fight one round, let's look at us next" One and a half kilometers away, Zhang Wei shouted at the field phone with a smile.
Obviously, Zhang Wei has achieved his tactical intentions, and he also got a surprise, the shell hit the Biaoguan River Bridge in his expectation, but Zhang Wei did not expect to blow up the Japanese ammunition truck and light a big fireworks, which is really a surprise.
The officers and men of the 2nd Supplementary Regiment in the grass could not bear it for a long time, and the shelling and explosions in the distance made the officers and men boil, and all the officers and men of the 2nd Supplementary Regiment hidden in the grass were excitedly holding their weapons, as long as Zhang Wei gave an order, they could rush to the shore and attack the elite of the 112th Wing of the Japanese Army on the shore.
Zhang Wei dropped the field telephone to the artillery company and brought another one.
"All parts, all parts pay attention, the infantry do not move, do not charge according to my orders, I order all the artillery of the artillery company, the eighty-two mortars and heavy machine guns of each battalion to push out of the position, and concentrate fire on the Japanese troops on the shore" Now the enemy and us are less than 1.5 kilometers apart, rifles, light machine guns, grenadiers and 60 guns are difficult to reach, all of them are at the edge of the effective range of these firearms, the killing efficiency is not high, want to kill and injure the Japanese army, the highest lethal efficiency is the anti-aircraft guns and large-caliber heavy machine guns in their hands, although the officers and men under his command are boiling with blood and want to rush up and swallow the Japanese army, but Zhang Wei firmly believes in a principle: what can be solved with firepower does not need blood This is not the time for the infantry to rush forward, so the brothers under his command can only save the desire to fight to the end.
After Zhang Wei's order was issued, the infantry in the grass still did not move, and only Dong Erli's artillery company, the mortar platoon of each battalion and the battalion's heavy machine gun company, and the eight six-pounder anti-tank guns and three eighty-two mortars of the artillery company were pushed out.
The mortar platoons of the 2nd and 3rd battalions, four 82 mortars, as well as 12 Min-24 heavy machine guns belonging to the heavy machine gun companies of the two battalions, six Czech-made ZB37 heavy machine guns, and six 2 Browning heavy machine guns newly equipped recently, left their concealed positions and aimed their muzzles at the Japanese troops on the north bank.
"Hurry up, don't aim carefully, if you are right, you will pull fire for Lao Tzu" Dong Erli, the commander of the artillery company, held the command flag and ordered loudly.
The gunners around him successively pushed out eight British-made six-pounder anti-tank guns, lined up at intervals, and the gunners loaded shells, simply fixed the gun mount, quickly adjusted the angle, and calibrated it, Dong Erli was right, the distance between the two sides was one kilometer, and the crowd of Japanese forwards looked at the past with gun sights and telescopes, and it was a large area of bright and shining targets, and there was no need to aim carefully at all.
"Ready to Place" After the squad leader's firing command was given, the gunner pulled the gun rope, and a 57-millimeter shell came out, drilled out of the barrel, and flew towards the Japanese troops on the north bank, firing the first shot.
"If there is an enemy attack, spread out and counterattack" One and a half kilometers away, Keiichiro Fujita, the forward commander of the 112th Wing, was keenly aware of the sound of artillery this time, and drove the soldiers to disperse to avoid the artillery.
However, this time his luck was "good" to the extreme, the first 57-millimeter shell of the second regiment hit three meters to the left of Fujita Keiichiro impartially, and after a violent explosion, this 57-millimeter high-explosive grenade took away the forward commander of the 112th Wing, Fujita, and seven or eight soldiers around Fujita.
The shock wave and shrenchnel knocked Fujita into a sieve, and after the body was thrown more than ten meters into the air, it fell heavily to the ground, and the undefeated forward officer Shaozo in Burma lost his life in the first fierce battle he encountered, and he did not know who his opponent was until his death "Quick, fight back" "The enemy is attacking and advancing on the grass ahead" At this time, the elites of the 112th Wing showed good tactical literacy, and the old soldiers found the approximate location of the shelling and immediately organized a counterattack, and the elites of the Japanese army who woke up from the shelling regained their calm and sanity, and got up from the bank of the river, showing their sharp fangs, and began to launch a counterattack.
"Kill" Less than a minute after Fujimoto was killed, someone rushed forward and tried to fight back.
Unfortunately, they were greeted by a more violent attack.
"Put" In the grass, the six-pounder guns and 82 mortars began to bombard, one by one 57 mm high-explosive shells and 82 mortar shells, flying towards the Japanese troops on the north bank, on the machine gun position on the side, the shooters of the 24 and ZB37 heavy machine guns frantically pulled the trigger, and fired forward, the most ferocious was the six 2 Browning heavy machine guns, the machine gunners tightened the trigger and poured 12.7 mm large-caliber machine gun bullets to the north bank.
The bullet casing, which was as thick as the child's arm, was thrown from the shell of the Browning heavy machine gun, and the unique sound of gunfire made many soldiers of the Second Supplementary Regiment ashamed, and many veterans of the Second Supplementary Regiment trembled when they saw the smoking shell of Browning.
Anti-tank shells, mortar shells, 79 heavy machine gun shells, and 12.7 mm large-caliber heavy machine gun shells formed a terrifying net of fire that covered the Japanese troops on the north bank.
"Kill" The Japanese troops who organized the counterattack rushed out more than ten meters, and before the formation had dispersed, they were pushed back by the dense fire net.
A Japanese squad leader who was charging forward was hit by two 12.7 mm heavy machine gun bullets, a large hole was made in his chest, his left arm was smashed by bullets, and a mixture of blood and flesh was splashed all over the air under the terrifying fire net, and dozens of Japanese soldiers who charged in front were almost completely wiped out, and few of them were all corpses.
The 57-millimeter high-explosive shells exploded in the crowd, and the fragments flying everywhere made the Japanese troops on the north shore nowhere to hide, and the cross-fire of the heavy machine guns harvested the lives of the fleeing Japanese soldiers.
This is a slaughtering battle. ：。
