Chapter 1247 Dont tremble!(1/2)
The Japanese Army Colonel, who had a pale complexion, was stunned for 30 seconds, and still looked at the front of the canyon in a nearly solidified posture.
The gunfire from the far canyon has proved that the Four Lines appeared in a way he was most reluctant to do. Not only did they run away, but they were actually hiding on the ridge close to the close, and had begun to attack the Imperial Warriors in the canyon.
The familiar gunshots of the 38th-large covers indicate that the Empire Warriors are fighting back heroically.
But the rumbling and explosion sounds from afar also show that the Chinese have invested heavy firepower that must not be ignored.
However, in anger and painful mood, there is still a component of glory.
After all, his army of more than 5,000 under his command only entered half of the canyon, which was all because of his caution.
The Japanese Army Colonel knew too much. It was not that the Chinese people had a big appetite and they would launch an attack without waiting for their entire army to enter Heilonggou. Instead, the two infantry brigades were tied up enough. If there were not an infantry squadron that had already walked out of the valley entrance to build field fortifications at the valley entrance according to their own military orders to prevent sneak attacks, the Four Corps would definitely wait until all of them entered the valley before launching an attack.
He still has a chance to make up for the mistakes. Even if he enters most of the main infantry corps that are at a disadvantage in the terrain of the canyon, there are still more than 2,000 people left outside the canyon.
In addition, he also has mountain artillery squadron and artillery fire support from further afield, and the Four Lines will definitely pay enough for his unwiseness.
This time, he must kill all these brave Chinese people who dare to take military adventures and the Chinese mountain people who guided them.
With Masayoshi Oshima's mind, how could he think of how the four-way group, which had not been guided by local villagers, could accurately move around in this mountain that they were also unfamiliar with.
Masayoshi Oshima, whose eyes became gloomy, was still sitting steadily on his tall blue-gray horse, and ordered sternly: "Order the sergeant Yoshino Eibo who passed through the Tanikou to break through the Chinese's blocking position with all his strength. After defeating them, a squadron of infantry defended the Tanikou, and the rest of them fought back against the enemy on the ridge of the canyon; order the sergeant Hiroki Koi to lead his troops to advance at full speed and not to fight against the enemy above the canyon. The rest of the troops who did not enter the canyon should strive to seize the commanding heights and defeat the invading enemy as quickly as possible."
The general was the courage of the soldiers and his expression did not show any panic. Masayoshi Oshima stabilized the Japanese army's morale with a panic expression.
The communication soldiers under Oshima Masaoyi ran around frantically, and several communication soldiers also set up field radio stations. They would convey Oshima Masaoyi's military order to various departments in the shortest time.
"Boom!" A loud bang came in Masayoshi Oshima's ears. The huge explosion shocked the big green horse under Masayoshi Oshima's seat, which had been through the battlefield for a long time, and almost threw the Japanese Army Colonel off.
Oshima Masaoyi looked at the mountains less than a mile from the entrance of the valley, and a strong smoke was rising from the hill.
The Japanese Army Colonel knew that it was the location of the mountain artillery squadron directly under his 11th Infantry Regiment, or the military order he issued to let them transport the artillery to that commanding height in order to provide fire cover for the imperial officers and soldiers who were crossing the canyon.
On that mountain top with an altitude of 800 meters, four 75 mountain cannons are enough to include all the high grounds on both sides of Heilonggou into the attack range of mountain cannons.
But why did such a violent explosion happen there?
Yes, in a world that the Japanese Army Colonel could understand, it could only be explosion rather than shelling. If it was shelling, unless it was a heavy artillery of more than 200 mm, but that thing was considered a heavy weapon in the empire. How could the Chinese have it?
But the dense gunfire that followed made the Japanese Army Colonel no longer have to wonder. There were Chinese people there, and no matter how they did it, the thick smoke of gunpowder was also created by them.
"Baga! Order the 3rd Infantry Brigade to support the artillery squadron directly under the wing!" Masayoshi Oshima finally couldn't hide his panic on his face.
Although the detachment has 12 mountain cannons in the rear and 8 105 howitzers further away, the shelling requires coordinates.
It is easy to bombard the Black Dragon Pond area. You only need to give a rough location. The cannon is set up and it is just a blast. All you need is a probability.
However, the battlefield in front of us can be distributed on mountains with a radius of several kilometers. Not only does the artillery coordinates have to be recalculated, but the area is also wide, so it is difficult for the two artillery positions to quickly support the places where they need it most.
Those 4 mountain cannons are the most convenient killer weapon in Masayoshi Oshima's hands. If this is gone, it will be difficult to strike a heavy firepower attack on the ridge and the Chinese positions at the entrance of the valley within 30 minutes.
But this is not the biggest reason why Masayoshi Oshima is panicked.
Instead, the commander of the Four Lines Regiment was as bold as a servant, and even inserted his troops near his headquarters. Although this kind of intercourse was extremely dangerous, it was easy to easily destroy the subordinates who had implemented intercourse. However, if they succeeded, it would be like a knife in the chest, which was heartbreaking and could be called a stroke of magic.
Although dangerous, it is absolutely impossible!
The sword has taken such a decisive approach to such an extreme one, which is the first time he has seen in his 20-year military career!
Tang Li did not disappoint Leng Feng's expectations for him. After the general attack signal was launched, he could order the mortars hidden in the mountains and forests to open fire, and without hesitation led two infantry companies to launch a charge against the Japanese army in front of him.
Because the range of the mortar cannons was too close, it took less than 3 seconds from whistling to landing and explosion. Before the Japanese army could react, the 38-kilogram large shells exploded about 20 meters around the Japanese infantry squadron that was lined up to go down the mountain. The air waves far exceeding the power of howitzer shells directly drove away nearly 30 Japanese troops, and more than 20 Japanese troops were hit by shrapnel.
Almost just one shot, a Japanese infantry squad was wiped out.
The Japanese infantry, whose eardrums were almost broken by a huge explosion, were instinctively lying to the ground. Then, they saw countless dark blues rushing out of the mountains and forests.
Yes, without any firepower testing or firepower suppression, hundreds of Chinese soldiers were running at full speed with guns and under the cover of various firepower points of heavy machine guns and light machine guns deployed on both wings.
Tang Li knew that his mission was to kill the four mountain cannons as fast as possible, and then block them on the spot, dragging the Japanese army that was about to reinforce, and reducing the pressure on Heilonggou and Heilongtan.
The temporary field position that the Japanese infantry had just left was the best position, and he had to rush in before the Japanese reinforcements arrived.
At this moment, time is more precious than life!
Quick! Quick! Quicker! Quicker!
The six light machine guns of the Japanese infantry squadron began to roar after 10 seconds, and the terrifying "da da da da" sounded throughout the mountains and forests.
At least 10 Chinese soldiers splattered blood and fell head-on, but this time no one looked down at their comrades' condition. They all continued to rush forward without hesitation.
Before the war, the infantry company commander told all the platoon leaders under his command that when the charge sounded, everyone had only one posture and moved forward!
Including the two company commanders, no matter whether they are killed in battle or injured, they don’t have to worry about it!
Five hundred infantry faithfully implemented Tang Li's military orders, and two lieutenants and platoon leaders died in this battle called the "deadly charge" because they did not receive timely treatment.
Fortunately, the large shell of the mortar was loaded again and fired again.
A cloud of gunpowder rose 60 meters away from the previous explosion point!
In terms of accuracy alone, this cannon is mainly about going with the flow, and wherever it is beaten is.
But that's why the elite soldiers of the Fifth Division were even more painful, because all the battlefield experience lost its effect in the face of such aimless shells. Whether they can avoid such shells depends on their lives!
Several Japanese machine gun shooters were not alive. At least two Type 96 light machine guns and their shooters were blown into parts and fragments flying around the sky by large shells less than 10 meters.
Compared with the powerful mortars that made the Japanese army scared, the 60-force equipped in the infantry company played a more important role. As the Japanese army crawled and fell to the ground began to counterattack, they deployed 9 gates and 60-forces less than 500 meters behind quickly counterattacked the Japanese firepower points.
The shells poured down towards the Japanese firepower point like raindrops. In less than 10 seconds, the only four remaining Type 96 light machine guns of the Japanese army were completely silent.
The Japanese infantry, which lost the enemy's firepower suppressed the charge in the charge, could no longer stop the powerful charge of hundreds of Chinese soldiers.
Seeing that the Chinese soldiers had rushed to a distance of 100 meters, "Kill Ji Ji!" The captain of the Japanese army's infantry squadron roared desperately and ordered the Japanese army to get bayonets.
Hand-to-hand combat is the moment when the Japanese army demonstrates their bravery, and it is also the most effective way for them to smash their opponents' courage!
At such a moment, the Fifth Division was indeed the elite among the elites.
However, the opponent they are facing this time can be called a crushing hit in terms of light firepower.
The two infantry companies seemed to be rushing around the mountains, but in fact hundreds of officers and soldiers still maintained the three-three attack method. Each infantry squad, as an arrow, was equipped with semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns.
When they approached 40 meters, facing the Japanese army who stood up and started to accelerate, these semi-automatic and fully automatic firearms opened fire at full speed.
After firing the bullets, retreat immediately. The spearmen from the rear will follow up when fighting for bayonets.
However, after experiencing this wave of bullets, the Japanese army that could still fight was only single digits.
Facing the rushing gun forest, I was alone, and my comrades around me were unable to get up. Even the most tenacious soldier would feel desperate!
But what is even more desperate is that even if you continue to rush forward with the mentality of fighting for one to earn one, and fighting for two to earn one, the Chinese soldiers will not give him a chance.
"Bang bang bang!" There was a random shot.
The last Japanese army fell on the position.
It was less than 2 minutes from the first mortar shell being shot out until the entire infantry squadron was finished!
This may be the first time in the history of the Sino-Japanese War. It is certain that unprecedented, and there is a great possibility that no one will come later.
Even the Tang regiment was stunned by his masterpiece after seeing this battle report.
Of course, this may be extremely critical to the Japanese army's unpreparedness, no position, and the exaggerated lethality of the mortars, but the unrestrained rush of hundreds of soldiers of the four teams was also the decisive factor in achieving this miracle, and no one can deny this.
More than 200 Japanese artillery soldiers, less than 200 meters away, watched this incredible scene almost in a daze.
Yes, it may be a bit exaggerated to say that nothing is done. At least eighty percent of people choose to crawl when the waves of air swept over.
Then, there were no other actions!
Then, they watched the ferocious Chinese soldiers approach the infantry squadron and shot them all like lambs to be slaughtered!
Then, the Chinese soldiers, who were like devils, pointed their guns at them.
Run! Become their only choice.
But how could a person run over bullets, especially in front of a group of Chinese soldiers whose red eyes were already hot.
More than 170 Japanese artillery soldiers were shot and killed, and all the frightened pack horses were killed ruthlessly. The four mountain cannon components that had just been removed became the trophy of the Chinese.
But this time, the two infantry companies did not regard these mountain cannons as spoils, but instead placed them on the position as temporary fortifications of firepower points.
The Japanese 75-caliber mountain cannon was no longer a rare thing, and it was no longer worthy of the value of Chinese soldiers who would rather sacrifice their precious lives for this broken thing.
When a Japanese infantry brigade arrived, they were greeted with shells and bullets.
The two infantry companies had built the simplest blocking position on this high ground! And all this happened only 15 minutes before Leng Feng ordered the general attack.
Masayoshi Oshima had already lost a mountain artillery squadron and an infantry squadron, and an infantry squadron was firmly restrained.
But this is naturally not all the losses of the Japanese army in the Battle of Heilonggou.
The Japanese army located outside the canyon may not have enough brains, but they absolutely obey orders. After receiving the military order, they immediately climbed onto the mountains on both sides.
However, the terrain of Heilonggou is so special. There are many places with straight cliffs. Not to mention people, even monkeys have to shout MMP!
There are really not many areas that can climb to high places, but that is highland. If you occupy the highland, you can avoid being beaten passively and attack the enemy.
The Japanese troops climbing on the narrow hills were densely packed, and from a distance they looked like a bunch of yellow ants.
Unfortunately, there is an artillery company equipped with machine guns, howitzers, 12.7mm heavy machine guns, and 9 infantry companies equipped with 60-force equipment.
These heavy firepower tasks are to use firepower to strike these key areas that have long been in the circle.
