Rise From Eight Hundred

The Japanese army proved the cruelty of minefields with their own flesh and blood!

The terminal of a trip mine carefully set up by the third squad of the Fourth Army Regiment was not a small infantry mine, but a super mine buried under a bush that contained 2 kilograms of 'cyclone explosive' that could almost destroy a tank.

All the Japanese troops within a 30-meter radius of the mine were blown up. In just this blow, Mizutani Squadron lost an infantry squad, killing 10 and injuring 5 on the spot!

But the nightmare of Mizutani Squadron did not end, even though they were so frightened that their eggs retracted into their abdomens and no longer dared to take a step forward.

But after all, we had to move forward. The continuous loud explosions had already alarmed the village only a mile ahead. The Chinese villagers who could be seen with the naked eye ran out of the village in a panic and were running towards the back mountain.

What's even more outrageous is that some Chinese people even drove pigs and sheep without running away themselves. This was not only because they were afraid that their most valuable property would be snatched away by the Japanese army, but also because they were confident that the Japanese would be blocked by landmines.

It would be fine if there were regular Chinese troops on the other side, but this is a group of Chinese mountain people! It's not a good choice, especially for the Japanese troops of a Class A division who have never encountered an opponent across East and Central China.

This is the humiliation of Chi Guoguo!

"Baga! Forward!" A Japanese second lieutenant with rising blood stood up angrily and took the lead in striding forward.

Then, he became tragic!

To be precise, his group of subordinates who have not yet recovered are even more tragic!

The Japanese second lieutenant's leather boots kicked off a thread hidden in the grass, and there was an explosion nearly ten meters high in the side.

The thunder was not buried in the ground, but was ingeniously placed on a branch of a tree nearly 5 meters above the ground.

Not only did the tree with a diameter at breast height of over 35 centimeters be blown up in half, but what was even more frightening was that the steel balls in the mines scattered in all directions like a goddess scattering flowers.

This is good, no matter whether you are lying down or squatting, as long as you are within the range of the steel balls flying around, you will be attacked.

The Japanese second lieutenant, who could not stand up to 6 meters straight, was the biggest target. He was hit by at least 20 steel balls and was blown into a sieve. The blood spurted everywhere.

His infantry squad benefited from his bravery and fearlessness, and 5 people died on the spot and 16 were injured!

If you have to lift those whose legs are injured and cannot walk, this Japanese infantry team has completely lost its combat effectiveness.

As the squadron leader of Shuigu Squadron, Shuigu Xiaoqu was probably red-eyed at that moment. He pulled out his command knife and said: "Baga! Drive the pack horses to explore the road! Everyone follow!"

Pack horses are the most important means of transportation for the Japanese infantry squadron. Almost all the rations and ammunition required by the infantry squadron are carried by these eight pack horses. They will not be consumed easily unless it is a last resort.

But now if you don't want to kill a man, you have to kill a horse, so Captain Mizutani Xiaoqu can only do this!

Several pack horses were hit by whips and ran forward, and were eventually killed by landmines without exception. However, they also found a "safe road" of more than 50 meters!

Captain Mizutani Xiaoqu’s tense face was finally relieved!

If a minefield wants to maintain both width and depth, it requires a large number of mines for support. Not to mention that this mountain village does not have this capability, even for the Chinese regular army, it will be difficult.

As long as you pass through this woodland and then go back to the mountain road, the Chinese village will be a flat river.

Kawako, who was lurking 300 meters away, couldn't help but feel anxious.

He had personally participated in the laying of this minefield. Of course he knew that due to the limited number of mines, the width of the minefield was 300 meters, but the depth was only less than 50 meters. The Japanese army used pack horses to run forward 50 meters, almost It has penetrated the entire minefield.

As long as the Japanese army followed the hoof prints of the pack horses, this minefield with more than 120 mines would be completely useless.

If the Japanese army were allowed to break into a village and burn the entire village to the ground, no matter how many Japanese soldiers were killed by the previous large landmines, the result would be meaningless.

If they don't attack, it will be too late!

But Lao Abacus remained motionless, turning a blind eye to the Japanese army's imminent success in breaking out of the minefield.

Seeing that the Japanese army had begun to carefully follow the horse hoof prints and that at least 20 people had successfully crossed the minefield and were about to enter the mountain road again, Kawako bit her lip nervously.

However, Kawako finally suppressed the thought of shooting the Japanese officer who walked into the grass under the protection of several Japanese soldiers.

Obeying orders is the duty of a soldier! This is a lesson Kawako learned on a battlefield.

Because he was always a little unwilling to be a reserve, so he once quietly led his infantry squad around the Japanese flank to see if he could find any opportunities.

As a result, during the movement, they were discovered by the Japanese infantry artillery approaching the front. Several rounds of infantry artillery shells were fired at them. The unprotected infantry squad could only crawl on the hillside field and be bombed. If it were not for the mortar squad in the company, Realizing something was wrong, he fired nearly 10 rounds of artillery shells and fought back desperately. Kawako and at least half of his infantry squad were unable to return.

Not only were 10 precious artillery shells wasted, but two soldiers were injured and disabled as a result. The company commander was so angry that he not only had to put him in solitary confinement but also removed him from his position as squad leader.

Fortunately, because of his accidental collision, the mortar squad that fought back happened to hit the shell storage point of the Japanese infantry artillery. As a result, the Japanese infantry artillery did not exert its due combat effectiveness in the subsequent battles, and the entire company was able to Therefore, no major losses were suffered, and he finally escaped unscathed.

After demerits, Chuanzi was only detained for two days and could continue to be his squad leader, but Chuanzi always remembered the original words of the company commander: "If you don't have that luck, the result of your disobeying the military order this time is that not only your infantry squad is gone, but 10 precious mortar shells will also be wasted, and the whole company may also pay a greater price for it. One time of luck does not mean that you will have this fluke every time!"

So, Chuanzi waited hard for the order from the veteran.

The safe road that Shui Gu Xiaoqu waded out with 6 pack horses was not as smooth as he imagined, because in addition to the trigger mine, Lao Suanpan also prepared manual mines for the Japanese in this minefield.

The old-fashioned mine "La Lei" has long been improved by Tang Dao into a manual trigger mine. The electric sparks generated by connecting two dry batteries to the electrodes first detonate a certain amount of black powder and then detonate the "cyclone explosives" with stable enough performance!

And the wire is more than 100 meters, and the detonation pressure rod is held in the hands of Potato hidden in the hole covered by grass.

Active detonation mines are larger, with more than 3 kilograms of cyclone gunpowder, and thanks to the increased size, nearly 600 steel balls the size of green beans were placed in, with a killing area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters.

Just as the Japanese vanguard entered the mountain road, another infantry squad surrounded its captain and moved forward along the "safe road" covered with the blood and flesh of pack horses, and Potato pressed the trigger lever hard.

"Boom!" The loud noise shocked Song Beiyouji who was rushing here, not to mention the Japanese soldiers in the mine damage area.

The entire Japanese infantry squad that was still marching cautiously in the forest fell down in unison like wheat being cut.

But the most tragic scene may not be because of the more than 30 Japanese soldiers who were swept down by the air wave and steel balls.

A Japanese soldier who was struggling in pain and rolling unconsciously touched a landmine outside the safe area. His whole body flew far away like a rotten wood thrown up, and then another explosion occurred.

A body that was originally complete looked like it was hit by the knife of the god of death, and was cut down again and again until it became broken bones and rotten flesh.

The Japanese soldiers in front and behind who saw this scene were all red-eyed, but no one dared to help the colleagues who were screaming in the minefield.

Perhaps if they were not careful, the living and the wounded would become the colleagues who were blown into pieces of meat on the ground.

Mizutani Xiaoqu was protected by several Japanese soldiers around him and was not killed on the spot, but he was hit by a steel ball on the nose, and his nose, which was originally a bit flat, was completely turned into a bloody mess.

When Songbei Yuki rushed over, he saw that this colleague, whose status in the brigade was second only to his own, had become such a devil, and he was both amused and angry.

Looking around cautiously, Songbei Yuki finally understood: "Such a huge minefield and such sophisticated mines are definitely not something that a group of ordinary villagers and local thugs can accomplish. There must be regular Chinese troops here, and they are elite!

Order Mizutani Squadron to temporarily stop advancing, Songbei Squadron, send out the vanguard squad to search the two wings!"

Songbei Yuki is worthy of being the most promising army captain of the 63rd Infantry Regiment of the 10th Division. He finally judged the current situation based on his heavy casualties.

However, what he never expected was that the Chinese "elite" was only two squads, and what was even more surprising was that the Chinese took the initiative to launch an attack without waiting for the two infantry squads to climb into the dense forest on the two wings.

"Bang!" A gunshot!

Accompanied by the first shot fired by Yang Bicheng at the sniper position on the top of the mountain, Lao Suanpan and the soldiers of the 3rd squad began to pour firepower on the Japanese troops down the mountain.

A Japanese second lieutenant fell straight down with a blood hole on his helmet, becoming Yang Bicheng's first prey harvested on this battlefield.

Yang Bicheng's eyes were devoid of any smugness. His face was cold as he pulled the bolt, swung the muzzle slightly and aimed at another Japanese sergeant who immediately crawled into the bushes and began to roll to avoid.

That was one of the targets he had chosen long before he fired. He had already anchored the approximate position of the target in his mind. As long as the target did not quickly hide in the blind spot of shooting, it was basically dead.

It took Yang Bicheng only two seconds from pulling the bolt to aiming and then firing. The sturdy body of the Japanese sergeant trembled suddenly, and fell silent after more than ten seconds.

With only one second left, he could roll under a stone, but the bullet shot from more than 400 meters away accurately hit the top of his head. The thin steel Type 90 helmet could not stop the bullet with an initial velocity of 830 meters. The completely deformed bullet penetrated the brain and almost instantly turned the brain stem into a tofu dregs shape.

"Yoshi! The Chinese are looking for death. Kill them all and then go into the mountains to search for Chinese villagers. They can't run too far. I'm going to hang them all in this forest to dry!" Hearing the popping gunshots coming from the forests on both sides, Matsukita Yuki laughed instead of getting angry.

Judging from the gunshots, the Chinese had no more than an infantry platoon. With this amount of troops, he killed them without even using a third of his strength, even though the Chinese occupied a favorable terrain.

"Order the 1st and 2nd squads of the Matsukita Squadron to attack from both wings, and the 3rd squad to stand by for the time being; order the Mizutani Squadron to leave a squad to take care of the wounded and the remains of the imperial officers and soldiers, and an infantry squad to bypass the minefield and go up the mountain from the flank; order the infantry artillery squad to fully cooperate with the infantry to kill the enemy on the mountain!" Matsukita Yuki issued military orders in an orderly manner.

The confident Japanese Army captain deployed more than 160 infantrymen in the first attack!

Indeed, if it were an infantry company of the 80th Army, even if the strength was as high as more than 200 or even 400, it would probably not be able to resist if the Japanese army had two infantry guns to participate in the attack.

The most terrifying thing about infantry guns for front-line infantry is not the killing of infantry, but the killing of firepower points such as light machine guns and even heavy machine guns. Without the continuous firepower that can suppress infantry, once the infantry enters the 30-meter area where grenades can be thrown, it will be a nightmare for the infantry in the trenches.

Many times, the superior forces organized by the 80th Army to besiege the Japanese army were forced to return in vain.

But this time, it was obviously different.

In the one and a half months since arriving in Panzhai, the two infantry squads and dozens of militiamen provided by Panzhai did not lie on the top of the mountain to bask in the sun.

First of all, in this mountainous area 600 meters in front of Panzhai, Lao Suanpan not only designed a minefield that the Japanese army must pass through, but also dug blocking positions on the mountainside on both wings.

Not only is there a trench covered by wild vines and bushes, but each person's individual bunker is reinforced with logs and rocks. As long as it is not hit by the front of the infantry gun, it will basically not be damaged.

The three machine gun bunkers are semi-sunken structures, with machine gun firing holes only less than 40 cm above the ground. The bunkers are protected by natural rocks. Even if they are bombarded by infantry artillery, they can withstand the energy of several shells, unless there are large explosive packs below for blasting!

There are a total of 3 such blocking positions around the mountain village of Panzhai, so that they can be adjusted at any time according to the different marching routes of the Japanese army.

Songbei Youjiguang wanted to easily capture this defensive position by relying on more troops and artillery, which was really too much.

Until the Japanese army approached 130 meters from the 3rd squad's position, the MG42 of the 3rd squad had not yet fired. The shooters with 3,000 rounds of bullets had to wait until the Japanese army entered the range of 100 meters before they began their time to harvest leeks.

The rest of the time belonged to the riflemen and submachine gunners. From the stage when the Japanese army approached 200 meters to 130 meters, the riflemen and submachine gunners had killed no less than 10 Japanese soldiers.

Yang Bicheng even killed a Japanese shooter and a Japanese grenade launcher, raising his record to 4 people.

The Japanese army also noticed the existence of this sharpshooter, and an infantry gun and two grenade launchers bombarded the mountaintop area.

Unfortunately, the Japanese army only knew the direction roughly, but could not define the distance. Yang Bicheng, who was wearing camouflage clothes and set his sniper position under a tree as thick as a waist, did not move his position at all.

The Japanese army soon discovered the enemy's weak point-the position of the 8th squad of Chuanzi in the left mountain.

The firepower of a total of 9 rifles, 1 Czech light machine gun and a bird gun could not match the strong on any battlefield.

Even though the new recruits of Class 8 fought desperately under the protection of the perfect fortifications and under the Japanese army's gunfire and rain of bullets, they could not suppress the Japanese army's crazy advance.

The Japanese army even began to straighten up and hunch forward!

This also gave Chuanzi the record of killing Japanese soldiers for the first time!

Chuanzi saw with his own eyes that the Japanese soldier who was locked by him 180 meters away fell to the ground and rolled, until there was no movement after a minute, and no Japanese soldiers came to drag him away.

The statistics of the results of the battle itself is a global problem. The common identification method of the 80th Army is: if the enemy is no longer moving within a few minutes after being hit, and no one quickly drags him away, it is considered to be killed, otherwise it is injured!

Killing the Japanese army on the battlefield for the first time in the true sense is an honor for any recruit, but Chuanzi didn't care to be happy. After losing five or six people in a row, the Japanese army had already attacked the area less than 100 meters away from his position.

The Czech light machine gun had already started roaring in the 150-meter area, otherwise the Japanese army might have rushed to the position at this time.

But the 3rd squad of the 4th line regiment also had deafening gunfire, accompanied by continuous explosions. It was obviously difficult to get support from them.

Everything depended on themselves.

"Brothers! Get your grenades ready. The Japanese devils are 40 to 50 meters away. Listen to my instructions and throw grenades to blow them back." Chuanzi was still calm and issued military orders like his old squad leader.

Although the independent regiment in southern Hebei was short of guns due to the rapid development of the troops, there were still enough grenades. Each person in his infantry squad was issued 4 grenades. This time, the superiors ordered that the number of grenades issued to each soldier be increased to 6.

Dozens of grenades thrown out could kill more than a dozen devils!

Of course, what allowed Chuanzi to remain so calm was what the old squad leader told him, that the most powerful mines in the 4th line regiment were not on the road blocking the Japanese army's march, but in front of the defense line he deployed.

This was one of the reasons why he dared to fight against hundreds of Japanese soldiers with only dozens of people.

Even though Chuanzi found it hard to believe from the beginning that a landmine the size of a book placed on the ground could become a magical weapon against the enemy, at this moment he had no other way to resist the more than 40 Japanese infantrymen who were fiercely and violently attacking the position.

In addition to the gun in his hand, he could only believe in the green tin boxes scattered in the grass 50 meters in front of the position.
