Chapter 844: When you are crazy and meet crazy and you are crazy!(1/2)
Home has become a fire!
The unbeautiful but gentle wife, lying naked at the edge of the yard gate, her once lively and cute son, had a broken brain and fell to death in the yard!
This is the last scene of the home that Cheng Dakui, who just returned from buying something from the town.
He went crazy. He picked up a hoe and wanted to chase him out and fight the Japanese devils who had left the village, but was stopped by the remaining villagers in the village.
The crazy Cheng Dakui sat in the yard, accompanying his dead wife and children for three days and nights. The water and rice were still not in the past three days. He wanted to die and wanted to accompany his wife and children to that cold world. He was afraid that they would be afraid.
In the end, the only remaining old man in the village woke him up. The revenge of killing his wife and destroying his children was irreconcilable. Not taking revenge was just a coward's choice.
Cheng Dakui buried his wife and children, left his hometown, and became a refugee. He wanted to join the army, but his thin figure and extremely down-and-out dress, and even the army did not accept him.
Until he met the Four Lines and became one of the 500 recruits.
He is thin and not strong enough, but he keeps breathing. If someone else stands in military posture for two hours, then he will stand for 3 hours and throw a grenade for one hour, then he will throw an extra half an hour.
The active training may not be effective in a short period of time, but all his efforts are not useless. He has become one of the 300 recruits who were taken to the battlefield.
To be honest, the sudden blazing gunfire and explosion sounded completely different from the training ground. I don’t know how many new recruits were scared to their pants at that moment. No matter how the veteran squad leader roared, at least half of them were lying in the trenches and threw the grenades out with fear. The distance was only more than ten meters at most. Not only did the Japanese not explode, but it also blocked the sight of the infantrymen who were shooting wildly.
Cheng Daqina was also afraid for a moment, afraid that he would be shot and rolled in the trench with pain like a new recruit not far away from him. But when he saw a Japanese army flying two or three meters high by a grenade and even his legs were blown away, the switch in his mind seemed to be turned on.
In a trance, he saw his son who was thrown to death and his wife who was stabbed to death by a bayonet.
He stood up from the trench like crazy, firmly and vigorously pulled the lead wire with the grenade around him that had been unbuttoned and threw it out.
He only needed to kill two Japanese devils and avenged his wife and children, and the soldier was not in vain.
This is the battlefield. The more you are afraid, the faster you may die!
In less than 40 seconds, Cheng Dakui, who was crazy, threw 10 grenades in one breath, and almost every grenade exploded 35 meters away.
Of course, the power of the grenade cannot be compared with the mortar shells, but the killing radius is also two or three meters. The Japanese infantry responded very quickly. After the attack, the Japanese infantry, who had no casualties, quickly left the road and rolled into the grass on both sides of the dirt road, crawling on the ground to reduce the bounce surface, most of them avoided the blazing rain. However, facing this long-handled grenade that kept falling from the sky, they could only be bombed.
Cheng Dakui saw the grenade he threw out with his own eyes, which blew at least five or six Japanese soldiers into a high position. Not only did he win back his money for his wife and children, but he also made money.
"Hui! Tian'er! I'll avenge you." Cheng Dakui's tears finally slid down his face.
"Dakui, good example, this box of grenades belongs to you. I will continue to throw them to me. I will ask you for me after the war!" One hand slapped Cheng Dakui on the shoulder.
Cheng Dakui turned his head. He was the usual strict veteran squad leader. His face was covered with smoke, his eyes were covered with blood, and his voice was almost hoarse.
Before he could nod, a whole box of grenades was carried by two soldiers to Cheng Dakui. The veteran patted the thin new recruit in front of him on the shoulder and bent down to leave.
The veteran was very anxious. He had 25 recruits in a squad and assigned nearly 300 grenades, but in the past minute, less than 60 were thrown out, and many of them exploded more than 20 meters away, which had no effect at all. If we summarized the post-war period, he, the squad leader, was to blame.
Fortunately, he was right that little recruit who was trained the most hard-working. Faced with the Japanese counterattack, he threw 10 grenades one by one, and the distance was very far. Not to mention being the leader among the 300 recruits, even 90% of the veterans were not as good as him.
If these turtle grandchildren are all soft-boys, it would be better to die here!
"I'll throw it hard. Who dares to cheat me and do not work hard? I don't need Japanese bullets. I will execute military law for you now!" The ruthless veteran held a muffled gun and stared at his red eyes in a trench that belonged to the recruits for supervision.
Although the recruits were afraid of the Japanese bullets on the opposite side, they were even more afraid of the veteran squad leader who was usually extremely strict. They knew that the squad leader had always been the same. He said that it was not as simple as verbally saying.
‘Two evils are the least effective!’ This principle is the simplest, but the recruits can only grit their teeth and encourage themselves and throw grenades forward.
Of course, courage alone cannot stop the bullets, and the casualties of new recruits also increased.
This is also a process that new recruits must go through to become veterans. They are not going through the battlefield, but wandering on the brink of death!
No matter how much you talk about on the training ground, it doesn’t matter at this moment.
If you have good luck, you can become a new recruit. If you have bad luck, you will always be a new recruit!
This is just a trivial microcosm of the battlefield, with courage and cowardice, survival and death fully demonstrated!
If the new recruits of the Four Lines Regiment were still struggling between bravery and cowardice, and the grenades they needed to throw were far from expected, the veterans were completely different. They were extremely resolute in implementing the orders of the Tang regiment.
Before the battle, all seven infantry companies and guard companies were replaced with continuous firearms, 300 automatic rifles, 340 submachine guns, and 600 mausoleum guns were completely distributed to each infantry. The request was to drown the Japanese with bullets within 10 minutes.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! Not counting as light and heavy machine guns, 1,250 infantrymen alone carried nearly 150,000 bullets. In the past, this level of ammunition consumption was enough for an infantry brigade to take a whole day. However, this time, the order of the Tang regiment was to empti me within an hour at the latest. If you still couldn't handle it, then do it again.
In order to implement the intention of the Tang regiment to cover the firepower, the supplies company responsible for staying in front of the Yellow River Bridge used a pack horse and cart to transport it twice overnight. There were 400,000 rounds of bullets alone, and the various shells even emptied the entire family's assets.
The Tang Tuanzu was not such a prodigal son. Perhaps he was irritated by Tu Feiyuan's pursuit. Not to mention moving out the ammunition he had just replenished from the Northeast Army's secret arsenal, he even used the ammunition that he planned to give to the 22nd Army and the 129th Division.
Judging from the situation, Chief of Staff of Zhuang Da was all illusion that the Tang regiment was going to kill ammunition in one battle, and then the whole regiment ran away with light clothes.
He was right to think so. Tang Dao did feel that the four-line regiment was carrying too much weight. If the 14th Division was chasing it like a mad dog, then the ammunition that he worked hard to transport would become the Japanese, and the four-line regiment personnel would also suffer great losses. It would be better to put it all on the Japanese.
The battle of the 2nd Infantry Regiment is actually based on this strategic guiding ideology.
Tang Dao's decision was not a big deal. The two infantry brigades in the 2nd Infantry Regiment were in trouble.
On the 1,500-meter-long front, up to 20,000 bullets were flying almost every minute. The infantry fired an average of 10 bullets per minute, and there were nearly 100 light and heavy machine guns in total?
If it is concentrated, it means that more than 10 bullets will fly within one meter of space. Whoever dares to look up may be torn to pieces by the crazy bullet flow.
In the first ten seconds, this crazy metal bullet was torn off. The Japanese army paid at least 500 casualties, but the Japanese infantry rested into the grass without much chance to fight back. Most of them were pressed tightly in the grass and could not even raise their heads.
The Japanese infantry were completely confused for at least one minute.
As soldiers of the 14th Division, they were not panicked and ambushed by the Chinese, but the terrifying firepower intensity of the Chinese.
In fact, such a fire density, not to mention that they have never experienced it, is extremely rare even if it is placed on the battlefields of Germany and the bears that are about to break out, purely on the bullets, at the same scale.
But that is just the initial mentality.
The mood of the Japanese infantry is basically divided into four stages: confusion, waiting, pain, and despair!
The Japanese infantry may not be without luck after waking up from the confusion. The Chinese should be the legendary Cheng Yaojin three axes. Looking at the entire Asia, there is no army that can last forever. Perhaps after waiting for a while, they will be unable to sustain it.
So, they waited, but what they were waiting for was that the firepower was continuing, and countless grenades were falling.
Some of the things fell to the ground and some were blown up for a few seconds. And some were far away and some were close, with no rules. No matter where you are, you have the chance of being blown up.
All the battlefield avoidance tactics are useless in front of this thing.
If you want to live, you can only rely on luck!
An elite Japanese veteran who could have easily killed ten people in the field could only watch the grenades with blue smoke falling one meter beside him, then exploded, and then he was lifted out by the air waves for several meters!
That feeling of powerlessness is really painful.
It was not without veterans who launched a counterattack. At least dozens of Japanese veterans pressed their bodies against the ground, saw the dark blue shadows only from the corner of their eyes, and then fired and hit the target!
But soon, they will be suppressed by more violent bullets, either being hit by bullets or losing their lives due to subsequent grenade fragments.
According to statistics, within three minutes of the war, more than 1,800 Japanese infantry brigades suffered more than half of the damage. Of the 900 people, about one-third died of bullet penetration injuries, but two-thirds died of grenade destruction fragments.
Tang Daoding's firepower suppression and grenade killing tactics were more than half successful.
Of course, among these 900 people, there are only about 500 people who are real infantry, and the remaining 400 people are mostly heavy machine gunners and artillery soldiers.
Yes, compared to the blows encountered by the two heavy machine gun squadrons, the Japanese infantry who lived by luck in the grass were simply living in heaven.
The two heavy machine gun squadrons were treated very well, and basically had pack horses to help transport heavy machine guns, ammunition and other equipment, so the target was obvious.
From the moment they entered the battlefield, the grenade launchers responsible for besieging the Japanese army on the dirt road almost all looked at them, or they also added two machine gun companies of the first and second battalions.
Yes, two Japanese infantry brigades entered the encirclement, and the two infantry battalions of the Four Regiment were responsible for attacking them.
The first battalion was headed by Lei Xiong, deputy regiment commander and battalion commander. On the left side of the dirt road, there were two infantry companies and one machine gun company under his command, and 9th company of the third battalion, and there were 150 new recruits. The second battalion was headed by battalion commander Guo Shouzhi, and on the right side of the dirt road, there were two infantry companies and one machine gun company outside the regiment headquarters guard company, plus 150 new recruits. In addition to the strengthening of heavy machine guns, the two machine gun companies also increased mortars, but because the backbone was drawn from the artillery company of the pony sea a month ago, the artillery level was not as good as the original artillery company.
Therefore, Tang Dao ordered that unless there are special combat needs, mortar groups located 500 meters away from both wings of the highway shall not be fired easily.
It is not scary to make a mistake of more than ten meters. If you make a mistake of thirty or forty meters, it will blow up your brothers.
However, the Japanese heavy machine gun squadron was the key target of care. Both Lei Xiong and Guo Shouzhi realized that if the two Japanese heavy machine gun squadrons were asked to lift machine guns, the casualties would definitely be greater than the number of people who might have been accidentally injured.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! These two, one from the 88th Division and the other from the 67th Army, are both tough figures who have experienced the battlefield of blood and blood. If the lives of ten people were exchanged for a hundred people to survive, they would never frown.
Both battalions of machine gun companies were issued military orders, and all mortars must be aimed at the heavy machine gun-covered artillery of the Japanese army on the dirt road.
Of course, to prevent accidental injury, all gunners who adjust distances to mortars must be veterans, otherwise they would rather not participate in the war.
Therefore, when the red signal flare hit the sky, about 10 mortars of the two machine gun companies aimed at the two heavy machine gun squadrons to bombard them, and the grenade launchers that bombarded them were as high as 30. If the grenades were added to them...
That firepower density can be imagined with the heel.
If we simply say that within three minutes of the war, the death rate of two heavy machine gun squadrons exceeded 80%, it may not be enough to show the intensity of their firepower to take care of them.
According to post-war statistics, two heavy machine gun squadrons were frightened and rushed into the grass, and all of them were killed. At the speed of frightened and galloping horses, the farthest one did not reach the front ten meters in the trench of the Sihang Group.
The two heavy machine gun squadrons fired less than 200 bullets, and they were wiped out.
That should be the first military destruction of the Japanese infantry brigade, but their colleagues could not hold on for too long and would soon reunite with them at the place where God Amaterasu was.
By the tenth minute of being beaten, the Japanese army's mentality had changed from pain to despair.
Because the imagined reinforcements were blocked.
Ishiguro Sadatsu was not a fool, and the last infantry brigade that followed his wing headquarters was not a good meal.
The next second after shouting that the Chinese were crazy, Ishiguro Sadatsu issued a military order to reinforce the front.
The Third Infantry Brigade invested all four infantry squadrons and a heavy machine gun squadron, with nearly a thousand troops.
Of course, they would no longer be foolishly staying on the dirt road with obvious targets and advancing towards the battlefield hundreds of meters away. The four infantry squadrons were all scattered in the grass in the wasteland and rushed to the battlefield at high speed.
Behind them are 4 mountain cannons, 4 infantry cannons and 6 rapid-fire cannons that have begun to set up guns.
In just 5 minutes, they advanced more than 400 meters and had more than 200 meters before reaching the close-kill battlefield.
To be continued...
