Rise From Eight Hundred

Under the strict order of Yin Tengyangtai, the two Japanese infantrymen responsible for attacking the high ground really risked their lives.

The Japanese 92 infantry gun and several heavy machine guns moved up the hillside also provided fire cover.

However, in this kind of mountain warfare, mortars are definitely the protagonists.

Although there is only one 82 mortar in the first row of the second company, due to the terrain, the mortar is located at the angle of a rock layer on the top of the mountain. Two huge rocks just cover the entire mortar squad.

Not to mention that the Japanese infantry guns cannot easily discover the existence of the mortar. Even if they do, the power of the 70-caliber infantry guns cannot do anything about the two rocks that are several meters thick.

But the mortar can ignore the barrier in front of it and use the principle of the mortar's large curve to attack the infantry guns 800 meters away and the Japanese heavy machine gun fire points observed by the observer through the telescope.

This mortar became the Achilles' heel of the 500 Japanese troops. Not only did two consecutive shells fall around the infantry gun, scaring the infantry gun squad to run away with the infantry gun, but it also used three rapid shots in ten seconds to directly blow up a Japanese heavy machine gun.

Seeing this, the remaining Japanese heavy machine gun squads evacuated from their original positions.

This was the wisest choice. Even Yin Tengyangtai, who was eager to attack, would not blame it. These remaining heavy firepower were his last hope. If even these were gone, the infantry would be useless. They would just be live targets for the Chinese continuous-fire firearms.

When the most important supporting firepower of the Japanese army, the heavy machine gun, was out of service, the row of infantry on the high ground no longer just threw grenades. They all poked out rifles, submachine guns, and light machine guns from the cracks in the rocks and the shooting holes specially made of sandbags, and fired at the Japanese vanguard troops who were already in mourning halfway up the mountain.

Although there were only 18 people shooting down from the top of the mountain, which was only half of the strength of an infantry squad for the Japanese army, with the current equipment of a row, the firepower of these 18 people was enough to match that of an infantry squad of American cowboys in the future Pacific battlefield.

And how fierce the firepower of American cowboys is, just look at Saipan, which is known as a bloody battlefield.

An infantry battalion of American cowboys once faced a board charge of thousands of Japanese troops on the position, with a force ratio of no less than ten to one, and because it was night, the rear naval guns were afraid of accidentally injuring their own side, so they did not dare to participate in the battle.

But the result was that after a whole night of fierce fighting, more than 3,800 Japanese soldiers were shot and killed in the area 50 to 200 meters in front of the infantry battalion trench. All were masterpieces of machine guns, semi-automatic rifles, and submachine guns.

That is definitely a number that can make any infantry commander feel chills.

It can be said that when the army is widely equipped with continuous-fire weapons and there is no sufficient artillery preparation, a dense charge is a stupid suicide.

After the Japanese troops on the high ground lost the fire cover of their own heavy machine guns, there was no other cover on the hillside except for the bushes and a few stones that made the Japanese troops have the illusion of covering their ears and stealing the bell.

The bushes may block the view, but they can never block the bullets.

The semi-automatic rifles may still be hunting-style shooting at the target, but the submachine guns and Czech light machine guns are covering and sweeping all areas where people may hide.

These two types of suppressive firearms rely on quantity rather than quality. The sufficient ammunition determines that the continuous firepower sweeping of these fire points can reach more than ten minutes.

Many Japanese infantrymen who crawled forward were silent like groundhogs and died in the bushes where they were lying.

After the almost impossible-to-attack Chinese mortar knocked down the Japanese infantry gun and heavy machine gun alone, it turned around and aimed at the Japanese light machine gun and grenade launcher firepower points hidden behind various rocks 300 meters below the mountain in an attempt to provide support firepower to its side.

Firing a cannon is not only a matter of practice, but also requires feeling. Today, the sergeant gunner of the second company may have been "scared" by the sudden large-scale appearance of the Japanese army, or he may have simply felt good today, that the bigger the cannon, the more accurate it is.

Unless the Japanese firepower point changes location after firing a few shots, otherwise, the accurate mortar will definitely fly behind the rocks or to a position no more than five meters away as if it has eyes, destroying the firepower point.

And for the Japanese light machine gunners and grenade launchers, they are also facing a difficult choice.

There are no trenches here where they can move with their guns after firing a shot. There are many stones in the valleys of China's Taihang Mountains, but they are not in a row. From one bunker to another, the distance is at least five or six meters.

Leaving the bunker may mean death.

Because there are not only cannons on the top of the mountain, but also guns, and there are guns that shoot very accurately.

The organization stationed on the high ground is an infantry squad, but there are two precision shooters.

From the beginning of the battle, the two precision shooters may be the Chinese soldiers on the top of the mountain who fired the least bullets, but if it comes to the number of enemies killed, they will never be the least.

Ordinary Japanese soldiers are not attractive to them. Only Japanese officers wearing white gloves and command knives and exposed grenade throwers are their favorite "little cuties".

As long as they shoot, they may not necessarily kill with one shot, but they will be injured if they are not killed.

After the mortar sent two light machine guns and shooters into the sky twice in a row, two consecutive grenade throwers died under the guns of precision shooters when they fired grenades and moved positions.

Cold and decisive! That is the state that only veterans who have survived countless battlefields can achieve.

Obviously, the Four-line Regiment, which has fought in Songjiang and Guangde, has no shortage of such soldiers.

Although the remaining Japanese grenade throwers found that their companions were shot by cold guns and fired five or six grenades at the suspicious bushes on the top of the mountain, they still did not stop a bullet that suddenly broke through the void and shot a machine gunner who was rolling on the ground and trying to evade with excellent tactics on the cold land.

Anyway, as long as you dare to open fire, you will either be torn to pieces by the mortars that fell from the sky in a dozen seconds; or you will be shot by the terrible Chinese gunners.

The bodies of the three companions who have gradually become cold use bloody examples to tell the high-risk group of the Japanese army about their possible endings.

Even if the Japanese army is stubborn, they are still human beings. As human beings, they have to make choices and hesitate between life and death. Even if they know that they are on the verge of life and death now, they will die sooner or later if they don't rush forward. But there is still a difference between dying early and dying late, right?

The Japanese firepower point was out of service, so the Chinese soldiers on the high ground naturally shot more recklessly.

It was like hunting, just like hunting rabbits.

The Japanese infantrymen lying behind the bushes and rocks were beaten and screamed, especially after a minute, the Japanese lieutenant who was originally a flag guard and was appointed as a squad leader could no longer tolerate his cowardice, and took the initiative to jump up, waving his command knife and shouting "on board", and then was quickly beaten into a bridgehead sack by the fierce firepower of the Czech light machine gun.

The last bit of endurance of the surviving Japanese infantrymen was exhausted, and they all retreated, either retreating frantically with their short legs, or simply hugging their heads and rolling down the mountain, completely "getting out".

The consequence of exposing your back to the enemy on the battlefield is naturally a more ugly death.

In the end, only three-quarters of the Japanese infantry could retreat beyond the rifle range. In this round of attack, which was not a board charge, more than 40 Japanese soldiers were left on the hillside forever.

The enemy was killed more than twice its own strength, and only three people were injured. For a high ground with only one infantry squad defending it, such a result is absolutely brilliant.

And more importantly, they successfully delayed the time. If the Japanese army continued to waste time like this, they would be able to wrap dumplings for them once the reinforcements arrived.

However, the infantrymen on both sides of the Chinese and Japanese sides who had just finished fighting ignored the determination of a certain Zhong Zuo to open up this passage.

Seeing from the telescope that one of the troops retreated hastily under the attack of the Chinese, Yin Tengyangtai gritted his teeth and said, "Baga! This is the shame of the Imperial Japanese Army. They are all dead."

He did not just curse, but really sent the escort team around him to act as the battlefield law enforcement team to block the more than 100 Japanese soldiers who were sweating and running. The captain of the army who led the team was extremely cruel and pointed out three Japanese corporals who were breathing the loudest and sweating the most from the more than 100 Japanese soldiers.

The three uneasy Japanese soldiers just walked out of the queue, and they were pressed to the ground by the law enforcement soldiers like evil spirits.

Three gunshots, the three panicked Japanese soldiers were executed on the spot before they had time to beg for mercy!

Extraordinary times require extraordinary means. Yin Tengyangtai used extremely cruel means of killing his compatriots to tell these infantrymen that if they did not retreat, they would die, and if they retreated, they would also die. It is better to die on the front line and fight for the reputation of heroic death.

Not only was he cruel to the infantry, how crazy was Yin Tengyangtai?

When the officers and soldiers of the Four-line Regiment counted the battlefield after the war, they saw that not far from the 92 heavy machine gun that was twisted like a pretzel, there were wreckage tied up tightly with ropes.

There were several wreckages tied together like this, and most of them were at the place where the heavy machine guns were blown up.

The officers and soldiers didn't understand it at first, until Wei Donglai arrived at the battlefield and took a breath of cold air: "Fuck him, the little devils are really cruel, they are afraid that the machine gunners will be scared and want to run away!"

Yes, after Yin Tengyangtai executed several deserters on the spot to intimidate the infantry, he was even more brutal to the heavy machine gun team. He required all heavy machine gun shooters and ammunition feeders to tie their ankles together with ropes after entering the battle position.

The law enforcement soldiers were hiding behind them. If the heavy machine gunners and ammunition feeders dared to leave, they would be killed immediately.

This means that no matter how the Chinese mortars fire, unless the shells can accurately kill them all, they should stay in their positions.

The reason that forced Yin Tengyangtai to be so crazy was simple. The scout scout in the rear brought him desperate news three minutes ago.

A team of dark blue was marching at high speed from a distance to this side. If there were not too many cliffs, it would take less than 5 minutes for a Chinese infantry platoon to arrive at this battlefield.

An infantry platoon is not scary. What is scary is that the Chinese have a complete advantage in the strength of the troops in this mountainous area. The arrival of a Chinese infantry platoon means that it will not take long for this big piece of fat meat to attract countless Chinese soldiers to arrive like ants.

Moreover, I heard from the defeated soldiers that the Chinese seemed to be short of military rations.

":?:" This is probably the expression of Yin Tengyangtai after hearing this statement.

By then, his life as a middle-left soldier in the Imperial Japanese Army may not be more valuable than that of a private. The only thing the Chinese are interested in may be his middle-left collar badge and command knife.

As for Major General Yamashita, haha, no one will allow the Chinese to capture a live Imperial Major General to hold exhibitions in various parts of China. This does not require orders from Yota Into. The two personal guards who have been standing by the stretcher will do it for him. decided.

"All imperial warriors, attack! Be loyal to the empire and His Majesty the Emperor! As long as we can break through the Chinese blockade, we can go home." Yin Tengyouta gave the military order with a cold face. "The empire has a prosperous military fortune!"

"The empire has a prosperous military fortune!"

The eyes of several Japanese lieutenants flashed with deep sadness, and their voices shouting slogans were weak.

They don't know whether they can break through the Chinese blockade, but they know one thing very well. This may be the last battle for most of them.

The Japanese infantry, which numbered more than 300, rushed towards the two highlands again without hesitation, posing a great threat to the two positions with only two infantry squads.

In particular, the Japanese infantry cannon and the only three remaining heavy machine guns were spared no effort this time. No matter how the mortars fired back, they were focused on attacking the mountain tops.

The fire cover of the heavy machine gun is not a simple straight-line shooting. It also uses the parabolic principle and relies on probability. Don't think that everything will be fine if you hide behind the fortifications.

Listening to the popping sound constantly coming from around you, it is definitely something that tests your mental will.

Because that was the sound of the heavy machine gun's thick warhead falling into the soil, or the sound of it falling on the human body!

However, this is at least the feeling of the Chinese soldiers who have sandbag fortifications. For the Japanese soldiers who have no fortifications and still want to attack, the feeling can only be described as horrific.

Because what they have to face is the dark muzzle of the soldiers of the Fourth Line Regiment.

The infantry squad leader was very experienced. He waited until the Japanese infantry advanced to 80 meters before shooting. Not only was he completely within the range of the submachine gun, but also the range of the shell gun.

The two Chinese highlands were subjected to a frantic attack by hundreds of Japanese infantry, with a disparity in strength of about 1:5.

But this is not the most disparity in military strength on this battlefield.

Where is the battle with the greatest disparity in military strength?

Also in this mountain forest.

Three soldiers who were only a kilometer away from the main position for reconnaissance and warning encountered the most dangerous battle in their lives.

After Yin Tengyouta issued the order to attack to the death, he watched the simultaneous fighting on both sides 1,000 meters apart, and then left the temporary headquarters. With the help of the cover of the woods, he bypassed the battlefield where the sound of killing was loud, and headed towards a more peaceful place. Go forward on the mountain road in the rugged area.

Yes, the center-left Japanese Army, which loudly shouted the slogan "loyalty to the Empire and His Majesty the Emperor" in its military orders, did not fulfill its promise.

Instead, after his men followed his orders and began a desperate charge, he fled first.

Because, the smooth half-grown wild boar miraculously worked again.

Perhaps officers who have reached the colonel level, regardless of China or Japan, have the mentality of "shooting first if there is a date but not a date". Forced into desperation, Yin Teng Youta can only hope that "killing the pig will produce a miracle."

Life is always more important than face. In Chinese history, there are legends about King Yue "lying on firewood and tasting courage" and Han Xin "humiliating his crotch"! Why, all the big shots in the Chinese people have had the experience of not being dignified, but I, a small army man, can’t do it?

The left-of-centre mentality of the Japanese Army is generally like this.

This time, instead of the Japanese lieutenant holding a gun to the 'little cutie''s hairless forehead, Yin Teng Yota personally took the sharp command knife and gestured like killing the New Year pig, and the old man gave in again.

After a simple reconnaissance to confirm that it was indeed a road, the Japanese Army center left, who had completely faced the Mariana Trench, took his escort team with his escort team, carried the seriously injured and dying Japanese Army Major General, and ran away again.

Poor Yamashita, if he knew that he relied on a Chinese wild boar to survive time and time again in the mountains of China, he might have been killed in shame.

The title of "Malay Tiger" is destined to be impossible in this time and space, but the title of "Taihang Pig Head Man" is really possible.

Little Wild Boar: What does it have to do with me?
