On a long snowy slope that was not steep, more than a hundred Japanese soldiers and nearly two hundred bandits spread out, covering almost the entire hillside, pushing upward like ants. The firepower from both sides continued to intersect, and red bullets were fired at each other.

It flew quickly through the air, like lines of fire, with a continuous chirping sound, and snowflakes kept exploding under the blast of bullets.

The Japanese army and the bandits tried to suppress the cavalry's shooting with three times the firepower of their opponents, but the fact was completely beyond their expectations. When they approached the cavalry's trench one after another, and were only a hundred meters away, before they could launch a charge, Song Biao

He used the two spare machine guns at the same time and fired fiercely at the same time, suppressing them severely.

Bullets flying from time to time carry a sharp whistling sound, and the probability of them hitting the opponent is extremely low. Only machine guns have the chance to kill the enemy, relying on dozens or even hundreds of rounds of ammunition to sweep past them in an instant.

In this noisy hail of bullets, Song Biao used the Zero-5 submachine gun to sweep through thousands of troops on the front line. He didn't care about the consumption speed of bullets. He fired wildly at all the enemy troops close to the trenches and suppressed the opponent's machine gun points from time to time.

Around that Hotchkiss machine gun, the Japanese army lost the lives of more than a dozen soldiers.

Probably because he was too confident in his laxative, Liu Tongpao finally made a mistake and suddenly led dozens of bandits all the way to the caravan's front line. The distance was only a few dozen meters away. Until then, Zhang Yahu fired his machine gun and shotgun.

The guns were fired at the same time, with a wild bang and a dull thud. Dozens of bandits fell to the ground. Liu Tongpao was also hit by shotguns, and rolled everywhere covered in blood.

Every battle is a collection of countless stalemate moments.

After the Japanese soldiers lost the first batch of front-line offensive troops and failed to organize defense fortifications, they began to gather in the same forest with the bandits and reorganized infiltration attacks in another direction, but each time they were shot by the array.

Interrupt with a loud voice, and pay the price of two or three lives, and then both sides will fall into silence for a few minutes, or even half an hour.

Song Biao couldn't find a more suitable sniper target, so he could only shoot several Japanese soldiers who tried to use the machine gun again, making the Japanese Hotchkiss machine gun almost never used normally.

The shooting level and tactical level of the caravan brothers are at a very low stage, but this will not prevent them from defeating their opponents, using fortifications to ambush their opponents, and using their geographical advantages to force their opponents to attack the front. These two points are enough to erase their training and

Disadvantaged in combat capabilities, all they have to do is aim at their opponents and shoot as much as possible.

The heavy losses suffered by Liu Tongpao in the south caused heavy casualties to the bandits. The more than 200 bandits were less than half of the original number. The Japanese army also suffered heavy losses. There were no mortars, grenades, artillery, submachine guns, or even hand grenades.

The only machine gun was also shot down by the machine gunner continuously. Under such conditions, the losses suffered by storming the position were unacceptable.

If Song Biao was the squadron leader, he would immediately choose to retreat hundreds of meters to rebuild the fortifications and wait for reinforcements from the artillery unit. This was a very conventional and correct choice, but the Japanese army did not do this.

In every encounter in modern warfare, as long as the equipment levels of the two sides are not too different, if the other side does not make mistakes, it will be difficult for you to eliminate the opponent, or even defeat the opponent.

Your opponent makes a mistake, and catching that mistake is the only way to win.

It finally got dark, and Yang Tiesheng ran back with four brothers. Two of them were injured. One was running too fast and fell, sprained his foot and dislocated his shoulder. The other was hit in the butt by a stray bullet.

, all limping back.

Four of Song Biao's brothers were injured by stray bullets, and a wounded Russian soldier who served as a bomb supply was injured again. The injuries were not too serious, and they could continue fighting after simple bandaging and hemostasis.

Under the dark night, everyone ate dry food and continued to crawl in the ditch, waiting for the arrival of dawn.

At this time, the Japanese army had two options. One was to retreat and set up positions, adopt delaying tactics to keep an eye on the caravans, and not give the caravans a chance to break out. At the same time, they mobilized artillery troops to come for reinforcements; the other was to take advantage of the night and use their numerical advantage to attack the enemy in the dark.

Initiate a pig charge.

In the history of modern wars, there are many classic battles that rely on bayonet offensive as the final means of victory. The Civil War, the Spanish-American War, the German-French War... are all like this. The Russo-Japanese War is even more typical. The Eight-Power Allied Forces also used bayonet offensives.

After defeating the Qing army, in the Russo-Turkish War, the bayonet offensive was an essential means of final victory.

Both tactics are reasonable. Considering that the Japanese army has a way to find artillery units, if it were Song Biao making the decision, he would definitely choose the former. If you think about it from the perspective of the Japanese commander, there may be more problems, such as

Taking into account the face of the "big" Japanese Empire, for example, they are too proud and confident, for example, the Meiji field guns of the bandits do not have explosive shells, only solid shells, for example, the bandits lack qualified gunners, and it is unknown whether they will hit the caravans or the Japanese army.

...The problems are diverse, so the possibility of the Japanese squadron leader choosing a bayonet offensive is very high.

Song Biao actually hoped that his opponent would take such an offensive, and felt that the possibility was very high, so he did not deliberately kill the opponent's squadron leader.

Who doesn’t want to solve all their problems at once?

He replaced his rifle with a low-light sight, and then installed a lithium-cadmium battery. He hoped to use the battery for as long as possible before it ran out. The key is that this bird's battery is an out-of-print item that cannot be bought in this era.

.

The source of the low-light sight of the Type 03 rifle is the civilian technology of the Dutch Alderford Company. Do you believe it if it is said to be for civilian use? Anyway, the production line of the 5318 factory is the same standard as that of NATO.

In the dark green field of vision, about 220 meters away, Japanese troops and bandits began to gather continuously, moving silently towards the southern front, and Song Biao's field of vision kept following them.

Before World War I, the distance of 220 meters was simply a chasm. Artillery could not hit it, and grenades could not be thrown across it. Mortars were only invented suddenly during the Russo-Japanese War and were not used on a large scale. If the other side was cautious enough,

, you can't even hear them.

Fortunately, they were on the snowy ridge. Even though the clicking sound was very slight, with his field of vision, Song Biao could clearly observe their movement.

Song Biao walked over quietly, patted Zhao Tingzhu on the shoulder, and motioned for him to take everyone to the southern front. He also lay on the southern front and silently observed his opponent.

The Japanese soldiers and bandits were hiding in a small forest.

Time passed little by little, until late at night, the whole mountain was so cold that it made people feel numb all over. When the last moonlight was about to disappear in the clouds and mist, the two sides faced off silently.

The brothers in the caravan quietly moved to the southern front. Yang Tiesheng led a handful of six people to guard the trenches on the eastern front. He only had ten shotguns and four Maxim heavy machine guns. They all moved to the southern front, with their muzzles facing the Japanese army.

forehead.

Everyone switched to shotguns according to Song Biao's instructions. Six of the strongest brothers were specially assigned to throw grenades, including Li Dakhan. Because of their strength, they practiced the most often.

It's just that until now, they haven't had a chance to throw grenades.

Song Biao loaded his rifle with grenades and aimed at the small forest.

It was obviously not the first time he encountered the Imperial Japanese Army's pig attack tactics. This was the second time, but this time the scale would be huge, and even the bandits would follow.

The nights in the Northeast are so cold, especially on such deserted mountains. The howling cold wind will almost freeze everyone to pieces, and a pee will turn into an ice pillar.

Everyone was well prepared, wearing their own cheesecloth jackets underneath and Russian woolen woolen coats outside. Even so, it was as cold as a popsicle, and everyone really wanted to light a fire.

Just endure it like this, endure it.

At the moment when the moonlight faded, Song Biao finally vaguely saw the movement in the woods. Dozens of Japanese soldiers slowly walked out with thirty rifles with bayonets inserted. The footsteps were very light.

At this moment, violent gunfire suddenly rang out from the Japanese position on the east side. The machine gun and more than a dozen rifles fired simultaneously. The harsh rattling sound sounded so terrifying and manic in the middle of the night, like

The devil's chainsaw.

Everyone in the caravan and Song Biao were taken aback. Song Biao also hurriedly turned around and looked through the low-light mirror. There were about a dozen people, and they should not pose a real threat. When he returned and looked towards the small woods, the small woods

More than a hundred people had slowly walked out in front, and the bayonets looked particularly bright in the dark green dim mirror.

Song Biao reminded in a low voice: "Everyone, be careful. The enemy is still on the southern front. The second team can keep some shotguns in the east for precaution. Leave all the machine guns to me on the southern front. If I say to fight, you will fight."

At this moment, Song Biao was extremely nervous. The front line on his side was very long, more than a few hundred meters wide. As long as the Japanese troops spread out and attacked, it would be difficult to withstand no matter how fierce the firepower was.

When a blind man beats a dog, he can only rely on luck.

Song Biao placed many of his hopes on the Japanese army's mistakes, and secondly on his illuminating grenades.
