Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

In addition, the coordinated infantry and artillery operations, roundabout outflanking, and wave-like offensive tactics that the Japanese army is good at are no longer new tactics for today's Eighth Route Army.But for this situation, the attacking Japanese army did not know.

Watching the bowed waist begin to spread out, the Japanese army who launched an attack on the blocking position fired shots at the position from time to time.A battalion of officers and soldiers on the ground didn't pay much attention to this kind of tentative shooting.

Just to avoid being hit by stray bullets, many soldiers even lie directly in the trenches.The soldiers serving as observation posts kept reporting the position of the Japanese army from the trenches, providing distance reference for the troops to counterattack.

'The little devil has entered the range of 300 meters! '

'Continue to observe!Rifleman, loaded and ready for battle! '

'Yes! '

In the trenches, the grassroots commanders who commanded the battle quickly issued orders to fight.Most of the soldiers lying in the trenches pushed the bullets into the barrels of their guns, and began to adjust their breathing to prepare for a counterattack.

At this moment, the Japanese soldiers climbing up the hill in a hurry, watching them enter the range of 300 meters, the defenders above still did not shoot, somewhat surprised.But the infantry captain at the foot of the mountain looked a little dignified.

He said in a deep voice: "The commander of this army is a very experienced military commander. It seems that this battle is not easy to fight!"

Even if they knew their intention of going out of the city, for the infantry captain, this was the unit under his command.If the whole army is really wiped out with this, I'm afraid he will feel very distressed.After all, this is the unit he is in charge of commanding!

'Little devil vanguard, entered the 200-meter range! '

Hearing the data from the observers, the soldiers who had been squatting in the trench quickly set up their guns on the trench under the command of the commander.It's just that everyone's movements appeared to be very careful, and they didn't stretch their heads in a panic or shoot indiscriminately.

'Prepare!beat! '

With three simple words, as the commander of each trench gave orders, the riflemen in the trenches began to aim and shoot.The light machine gun that was also set up also began to shoot at the Japanese army under the gun.

Watching the sound of gunfire, the pioneers rushing to the front fell as if they had been harvested.The infantry captain who was staying at the foot of the mountain said with a somewhat astonished expression, "Hello! Is this the sound of our rifles?"

The sound of the [-]-type rifle is still different from the official or Hanyang-made ones used by the Huaxia Anti-Japanese War.As the infantry captain in the Japanese army, it is naturally possible to judge what weapon the opponent is using by the sound of gunfire.

Also stunned, there were many Japanese soldiers in the brigade who used [-] rifles.For them, most of the seized Huaxia rifles are looked down upon, and they prefer to use domestically produced [-]-style rifles.

But right now, they suddenly discovered that their domestically-produced rifles were heavily equipped by the Eighth Route Army, which was their enemy.It's natural to be surprised.But this can also show that the troops blocking them in front of them are really not easy! (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

He Zhengdao, who also moved his headquarters to Zuo Yun after receiving a telegram from the troops besieging Datong, also felt a little surprised.But knowing that only one infantry brigade of the Japanese army left the city, He Zhengdao also couldn't figure out what the little devil wanted to do.

However, in order to ensure the smooth operation of Datong's combat plan, He Zhengdao still sent a telegram to the troops closest to Datong, telling them to always pay attention to the enemy's situation in Datong and prepare to support Datong.

For He Zhengdao, what he is most worried about at the moment is actually the Japanese army's breakthrough in Datong City.Once the opponent really breaks through the siege, it is estimated that it will be difficult to wipe them out in Datong only with the blocking of the second division and the second regiment.

If we don't attack Datong now, we hope to "boil the frogs in warm water" and don't force the little devils to jump over the wall in a hurry.But now the appearance of a Japanese infantry brigade made He Zhengdao realize that the speed must be accelerated.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Give power to the reconnaissance brigade. Starting tonight, all the major traffic routes from Guisui to Datong will be cut off. The rest of the troops who have reached the offensive position will also start attacking tonight. Let the Fifth Special Forces rush overnight Destroy Baotou Airport."

Although doing so, the plan for the troops to encircle and return to Sui and Baotou was advanced by one day.However, judging from the information sent by the current reconnaissance brigade and various troops, it is actually not a big problem to start the battle to recover Suiyuan in advance.

Even after issuing this order, He Zhengdao continued: "Send a report to the Second Division and ask them to dispatch a main force group to Datong to ensure that the Japanese army in Datong is not allowed to break through. The rest of the troops continue to advance towards Zhangjiakou."

'Yes, Commander! '

After the two telegrams were sent, the reconnaissance brigade commander Li Xiangdong, who was far away in Suiyuan, advanced the attack plan despite some surprises.But he also quickly gave instructions: "Give a group of power, so that they can start tonight!"

I didn't know that when I sent an infantry brigade, I originally wanted to test the firepower of the Eighth Route Army.Even the garrison of Datong, which was considered a waste of grain by the Japanese army, may not have expected to lead to the early recovery of Suiyuan.

The Japanese infantry brigade, which was attacking the first battalion at the moment, watched the Eighth Route Army on the blocking position after a round of gunfire, and used the [-]-style rifle to shoot and kill the infantry who tested the firepower. Every little devil felt uncomfortable.

For them, dying under the guns produced by their own country is somewhat aggrieved.But they forgot how many soldiers and civilians in China died under the weapons they seized made in China?

The sudden shooting caught the attacking Japanese squadron by surprise.The Japanese soldiers who escaped the first round of shooting soon lay down on the snowy hillside and began to think about whether to retreat.

On the other hand, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army on the blocking position heard the commander next to him say: "The machine gun stopped firing and started to shift positions. Riflemen, keep aiming and shooting. Aim a little bit for me. Bullets are very precious."

Even if the independent column captured a lot of Japanese equipment, there were also a lot of Type [-] rifle ammunition in reserve.But the officers of the Eighth Route Army, who are used to frugality, will still tell the soldiers to cherish every bullet during the battle.

Although in their usual training, they did a lot of live ammunition shooting.But in combat, increasing the lethality of each bullet is also something these officers have always emphasized.

If you can solve an enemy with one bullet, remember not to fire a second one.If you are not sure of the enemy you are shooting, then don't waste bullets casually.Because the saved bullets may sometimes save their lives.

Following the commander's order, the machine gunner who previously controlled the crooked machine gun quickly picked up the machine gun and began to move from the trench to the next reserve machine gun position, preparing for the next shooting.

As for the riflemen, those soldiers with relatively high shooting skills also did not shoot indiscriminately.On the contrary, they aimed carefully, and those little devils who were still lying on the hillside kept shooting bullets that killed them.

During this process, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army on the ground said in surprise: "Company commander, these attacking people don't seem to be little devils! I heard some wounded soldiers shouting 'I don't want to die' earlier. !"

'Yes, I heard that too.It seems that most of the people who attacked our position were not little devils.If nothing else, this should be a soldier from the Little Devils Guard.Many of them are puppet soldiers!

However, since they participated in the attack on us, they cooperated with the little devils to fight.Brat or not, they are our enemies.When dealing with the enemy, you don't have to show mercy to me. '

According to the observation of the first round of battle, the officers of the first battalion on the ground also quickly realized.The troops in front of them wearing Japanese military uniforms are not pure Japanese infantry, but the second-line troops of the Japanese army.

But even so, the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army on the ground would not despise them.According to the information they have studied before, they all know that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese garrison is still very good.

If you are negligent, maybe you will stumble!

When this news was reported to the commander of the first battalion watching the battle at the rear, the commander of the first battalion who heard the news was also very surprised: "It seems that the little devil still doesn't trust the puppet army very much after all!"

'no way!Non-my family, its heart must be different!I believe the little devil knows this truth.It's just that compared to the Shanxi puppet army we encountered before, these puppet troops in the guard still have many hardcore lackeys of little devils.

Most of them are prisoners of war or young adults who have been reorganized from North China and Northeast China, and have also undergone long-term military training.Most of the grassroots commanders are little devils.Compared with the puppet army, they are much more difficult to deal with. '

As battalion and company-level officers of an independent column, they will also receive some training from time to time when the troops are resting.Similar to the situation of some units of the Japanese army, they also have some understanding.

But at this time, seeing that the attacking squadron suffered more than half of the casualties, they didn't even test out the heavy machine gun position in the front position.The captain of the Japanese army in command soon sent another squadron to join the attack sequence.

Even in order to put some pressure on the defenders, he pointed to the front and said, "Order the artillery squadron to fire me. I want to see if the troops blocking us have heavy weapons!"

'Hi! '

Following the order of the infantry captain, an infantry squadron that cooperated in the battle quickly joined the attack sequence.When they began to charge the hillside, the Japanese mortars finally launched shelling.

The commander lying in the trench heard the sound of the roaring shells, and immediately shouted: "Hidden, the little devil is firing!"

For this kind of mortar attack, as long as the shells do not fall directly into the trench, the soldiers hidden in the trench are still very safe.But even so, there are naturally risks.

Looking at a cannonball, it unfortunately fell into the trench and exploded. Even if several soldiers hiding nearby got down quickly, they still suffered casualties.The officer directing the battle nearby shouted immediately: "Medical soldier, hurry up and save people!"

The first battalion commander, who was also staring at the little devil's shelling, still didn't fire his artillery platoon.In his opinion, the shelling that the little devil is carrying out now is mostly blind.The casualties that can be caused to him are also very limited.

Although his artillery platoon can suppress the little devil's mortar.But the commander of the first battalion still felt that it might be more appropriate to save this artillery platoon for the counterattack later.

When the shelling stopped, the little devil who was lying down at the bottom of the mountain began to climb up the mountain again.In this process, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were under artillery fire also did not give these little devils an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Even the machine gunner who moved the machine gun position earlier also pulled the trigger in his hand.The roaring light machine guns soon joined the battle to stop the advance of the Japanese army, causing the attacking Japanese army to suffer casualties again and again.

After a magazine is fired, the machine gunner will carry the light machine gun for transfer.The rifleman next to them will buy time for them to transfer.After all, there are not many little devils attacking right now, and the riflemen can also handle it.
