Chapter 642: The Cold Water of the Minjiang River (1)

"Boom! Boom..." Amidst the roar of guns and artillery, Liu Songshan looked at the red square in the fire with a calm expression. The resistance of the Japanese army was unexpectedly strong. The Red Army of nearly 30,000 people still did not achieve much success.

progress.

Although this was due to the Red Army's release of water, it has not yet broken through to the Japanese army's forward positions, which made Liu Songshan's face quite ugly. Although he thought that the Japanese army's frontal combat effectiveness was amazing, he did not expect that the Japanese army's resistance would be so strong.

powerful!

At this time, the chief of staff hurried over and said in a deep voice to Liu Songshan: "Our plan has entered the stage. The Japanese army in Longyan has been dispatched! They have sent a vanguard and are preparing to leave the city!"

Liu Songshan nodded calmly and said to the chief of staff: "Get the harassing troops along the way ready, and tell the comrades on the front line at the same time! Don't relax, don't give the Japanese troops an opportunity!"

"Yes!" the chief of staff responded, and then hurried down to deliver the order.

In Longyan City, a figure hurriedly came to Huo Qingyun from the tunnel in the courtyard and whispered: "The Japanese army has begun to take action!"

Huo Qingyun nodded to indicate that he understood, and then said nothing. After seeing Huo Qingyun's signal, the man turned around and left the yard.

He knew what Huo Qingyun meant. The current fire was not strong enough! The fire must be strong enough to mobilize most of the Japanese troops. In this way, the danger faced by Crow would be small.

Although the crows are elites, they are humans after all, not gods! They don’t have the ability to shoot endless bullets with flying knives against machine guns in anti-Japanese dramas. If they are shot, they will bleed. They may also die. Once they stay in the city

With too many Japanese troops, there is no doubt that the crows will also face extremely high risks.

After the Akagi brigade in Longyan City gathered together, they rushed towards Hongfang under the leadership of captain Akagi Jiacheng! Akagi Jiacheng was full of confidence. In his opinion, the troops besieging Hongfang were just a mob!

It only takes one charge to disperse them! Moreover, there are more than just one of the troops going to support. There are also several brigades and squadrons on their way to support - the garrison division commander does not want to see the first one.

The lost occupied territory was generated in your own hands.

"Squeak~~" The heavy city gate of Longyan City was opened in the middle of the night, and the cavalry team of Akagi Yoshinori's brigade led the way out of Longyan City.

Behind them were infantry and heavy machine gun teams. The cavalry troops moving forward spread out to conduct reconnaissance, while the infantry troops at the rear were divided into three groups. Each group was about three hundred meters apart. They were heading towards Red Square!

Along the road, Akagi Jiacheng and others soon arrived at Xiayang Village, which was necessary to go to Hongfang. This road was built by Chiang Zhongzheng when he was suppressing bandits. Although it was a dirt road, it did not take long to build, so it was used.

Yu Xingjun is pretty good.

After the Japanese occupation, some modifications were made, but basically the roads and bunkers left by Chiang Zhongzheng were still used. The reason why the Japanese army is able to withstand the red attack now is due to the communication trenches and bunkers left by Chiang Zhongzheng.

"Boom, boom, boom...boom!boom..." On the Japanese army's position, the roar of heavy machine guns and the bombardment of grenades were heard together! Countless soldiers who rushed forward were knocked to the ground and fell to the ground.

In a pool of blood...

Liu Songshan, who was in the forward command position, had a livid face and said nothing. He knew that the Japanese position was difficult to attack. But only after seeing it with his own eyes did he understand why it was difficult to attack.

Because the Japanese army was very good at using one weapon - grenade launchers, whether they were charging or defending!

The attack range of ordinary grenades is only more than 30 meters. But the grenade is extremely powerful! The Hongfang Brigade is equipped with a ** heavy-throw grenade, with a caliber of 50 mm, a total length of 610 mm, a weight of 4.7 kg, and a huge range.

!

The maximum range of the ** type grenade is 670 meters, while the range of the specially manufactured Type 91 grenade can reach 1,200 meters! But basically the range used by the Japanese army is only about 200 to 300 meters. Due to the short launch distance, it is used to launch

The accuracy of grenades is extremely high! And the killing distance of the grenades it launches can reach 8 meters!

The ammunition used in the ** grenade is the Type 91 grenade. It has basically the same performance as the Type 97 grenade, a personal grenade commonly carried by Japanese infantry in World War II. It uses a cylindrical cast iron body with vertical and horizontal grooves on the outside.

The body is divided into 50 pieces. The explosive part is equipped with 6.5 grams of TNT, and the killing radius is 8 meters!

Another advantage of it is that it is portable! At that time, mortars of the same caliber in the world generally weighed at least 6 kilograms, and the gun grenade weighed less than 3 kilograms, which was lighter than a rifle! Even if it is used

A professional Type 91 grenade only weighs 0.45 kilograms, and an ammunition bag with eight rounds weighs only 3.6 kilograms.

Including the grenade, the entire combat system weighs less than 7 kilograms, which is much lighter than a Czech light machine gun. This allows the Japanese frontline to be basically equipped with this powerful and easy-to-carry weapon.

Basically, a few grenades can block a fire path! Therefore, in the Anti-Japanese War, although the Chinese ** team was extremely brave, the lack of heavy firepower caused fatal injuries!

The Japanese army relied on grenade launchers to withstand the attack of the Chinese *** Team! In fact, it was not just the Chinese *** Team, but the US military also suffered a lot from the grenade launchers.

Although the US military dropped 1,200 tons of artillery shells and bombs per square kilometer on Iwo Jima, it still suffered more than 28,600 casualties. At that time, the Japanese troops defending the island were 25,000! Although the entire army was wiped out, it caused extremely serious damage to the US military.

"Thud, tug, tug..." The Japanese heavy machine guns roared, constantly suppressing the soldiers who tried to stand up and charge! They were forced to lie down to avoid flying bullets.

Then, those grenadier soldiers began to exert their power! After dividing the area, they used grenade launchers to continuously throw grenades two meters ahead!

"Boom~boom...Boom! Boom..." With the sound of explosions, soldiers fell into a pool of blood one after another! The platoon leader who directed the battle shouted cruelly with red eyes: "Withdraw!!"

These soldiers could only hunker down and slowly withdraw from the position discovered by the Japanese army. Looking at the situation on the position, Liu Songshan did not blame the platoon leader who chose to retreat.

He saw it. These grenade launchers fired extremely fast! The shooters on the Japanese positions could reach about 20 rounds per minute. Within a few minutes of the red soldiers charging, the grenade launchers could already fire a large number of grenades! Forming a field

barrage.

The heavy machine guns then roared! The soldiers had no choice but to lie down to avoid the fan-shaped fire. At this time, the Japanese army would launch grenades again to bombard the hidden soldiers!

He looked at the Japanese position with a gloomy expression, and he was thinking: How did the National Defense Forces break through this firepower combination back then...

The Japanese army's use of grenades is not new! In fact, Tu Qianjun's ability to crack it is inseparable from the subsequent research of the US military.

In the Pacific War, the Japanese grenade played a huge role. It mainly cooperated with the Japanese light machine gunners to form a combined fire net. First, the Japanese machine gun used the advantageous terrain of jungles and mountains to suppress the American soldiers. The grenade could

Use on any terrain.

It can be launched in hidden fortifications of the Japanese army and use the curved trajectory to kill and injure hidden US soldiers.

To deal with this kind of attack, the method used by the US military is: bombardment! A lot of bombardment! Use its air and land firepower advantages to eliminate any exposed Japanese firepower points!

Rapid communication allowed the U.S. military to notify the heavy artillery units in the rear for targeted strikes after discovering the Japanese grenades! This method was obviously very effective. In the Battle of Iwo Jima and the subsequent Battle of Okinawa, which had a very high casualty ratio, the U.S. military again

There were 66,000 casualties, but 110,000 Japanese troops were wiped out.

This was the result of the use of this kind of firepower, but Tu Qianjun obviously did not intend to follow the Americans. What he chose was to tinker with individual weapons to restrain them, which was the National Defense Force's anti-RPG7 rocket launcher-Fire Crow!

The use of the Fire Crow is enough to compete with the effectiveness of the Japanese grenade. However, due to the good confidentiality, the Japanese army still believes that the National Defense Force should be equipped with the improved Taisho 10-year-old grenade.

They did not expect that the National Defense Forces would use rockets as their new attack tools!

"Boom, boom, boom! Boom..." Seeing the red warriors below being repelled, the crow members who were observing with binoculars on the mountain col said to the team leader beside them: "Captain, do we want to give it to you?"

Are they helping me?! It’s too hard to see them fighting like this..."

Xue Yingyi, the captain of the Crow Squadron 4, was silent for a while and said to the child who spoke: "Go down and ask, it's not good for us to meddle in this kind of thing rashly. And we have to coordinate well. If they agree, we will use 'Tiger Roar'

Give them some support..."

The kid responded with a sigh, and then ran down to ask Chi Se. Liu Songshan, who was at the front line, had someone bring the kid over and said to him: "I know you have good intentions, but now is not the time. You guys

We have to wait, but you can’t hide your secrets when I need fire support later!”

You still have to wait at this time?! This boy was a little confused, but he still reported the truth to his superiors.

He didn't know that what Liu Songshan was waiting for was the fighting along the way! In Xiayang Village, Akagi Jiacheng's troops had already exchanged fire with the ambushed Red troops!

However, these red troops followed the previous guerrilla warfare style and did not confront Akagi Yoshinari head-on. Instead, they directly chose to evacuate after a sneak attack.

"Boom! Boom..." Someone in the advancing team hit a mine, and the war horses and cavalry were blown up, and the people flipped over. Akagi Yoshinori's gloomy face seemed to sense that something was wrong.

On the hills in the distance, several observers were looking at Akagi Yoshiaki's blocked team coldly and analyzing them in detail...
