271. Chapter 271 Chen Ziyun commanded to block the attack of the 27th Division

 Chapter 271 Chen Ziyun commanded to block the attack of the 27th Division

The 27th Division was originally an infantry brigade stationed by the Little Devils. After the war in 1937, it was strengthened by artillery and other arms.

It was then directly reorganized into a garrison-based mixed brigade. In February 1938, it was strengthened again and reorganized into a garrison-based corps.

In July 1938, the Little Japanese reorganized it into the 27th Division and became a field division organized by the Third Regiment.

Shortly after completing the reorganization, the 27th Division followed the 11th Army to participate in the Battle of Hankou.

Among the divisions currently under the North China Front, the 27th Division is the only one that has participated in battles involving millions of troops.

After the Battle of Hankou, they returned to the North China Front again and were responsible for the defense of the occupied area.

In recent years, they have rarely participated in large-scale operations, but they have often carried out mopping up operations.

In the mopping up operations, they did not suffer any defeat, after all, their overall strength lies here.

Now the 27th Division came to attack the reserve position of the 11th Regiment, and the gap between the two sides was visible to the naked eye.

The three garrisoned infantry regiments set up various heavy weapons in different areas, and they fired fiercely at the reserve I1 regiment position one after another.

Some lightly wounded soldiers simply ignored their wounds and continued fighting.

Move the Japs troops closer to launch an attack, focusing on the light machine guns and submachine guns to kill the Japs riflemen.

"I have already said hello to the 12th Reserve Regiment. They can quickly replace the 11th Reserve Regiment at any time."

Otherwise, even if he didn't die here, he would still have to be carried down for treatment.

But a grenade continued to hit, and this time, the grenade landed accurately on the infantry gun.

This is the strength shown by the little devil, that is, Chen Ziyun is lucky and has rich experience.

"Bah bang bang."

The officers and soldiers were completely hidden, and some weapons began to change positions.

"This is not a magic weapon competition between a beggar and the Dragon King. Such tactics are fine against independent mixed brigades and other troops."

Twelve mountain guns carried out concentrated bombardment at different positions, and a large number of artillery shells continued to bombard one point of the position.

Especially the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun, which weighs more than 100 kilograms. This is an air-cooled heavy machine gun!

These heavy machine guns need to rely on solid bunkers for cover during combat.

As for the 11th Reserve Regiment, which was directly faced with an attack by a field division of the 27th Little Devils Division, their overall casualties were naturally very high.

Chu Yunfei also immediately held a combat meeting with officers from various departments to learn more about the current combat situation.

It is no longer easy for the 11th Preparatory Regiment to defend until now. This is because it is fortunate that Chen Ziyun has led this unit.

The troops should not adopt the previous defensive routine at this time, they need to change.

But while they kept shooting, a grenade fell.

The Jin-made submachine gun continued to fire, and a large number of 11.43MM bullets were shot out like raindrops in a heavy rain.

As for the heavy machine guns, they look for opportunities to start shooting.

He tilted the shell gun and pulled the trigger directly.

The sharpshooters of the whole regiment can focus on attacking the Japanese grenade shooters, light machine gun shooters and Japanese military officers.

The Jin-made submachine guns opened fire one after another, and many little devils were beaten to a pulp.

The battalions under the Reserve I1 Regiment have already received orders, and they have begun to change their combat tactics.

The Mountain Artillery Regiment of the 27th Division launched a covering artillery bombardment, and a large number of artillery shells continued to hit the reserve position of the 11th Regiment.

The machine gunners fired one after another, firing bullets towards the position.

When the little devils discovered this, after being briefly surprised, the Japanese officer quickly waved his saber.

However, the first regiment of the garrisoned infantry under the 27th Division has twelve 75MM mountain cannons in its direct mountain artillery brigade alone.

This grenade landed directly near the Little Japanese Infantry Cannon. Although it was more than a meter away, as the grenade exploded, countless shrapnel quickly spread in all directions.

Chen Ziyun squatted in the trench to hide, but he could feel the terrible oppression.

A total of thirty-two artillery pieces violently bombarded the troops of the 27th Division one after another.

More importantly, the firepower of the 11th Reserve Regiment's position was suppressed, so heavy weapons such as the Little Devils could be deployed calmly.

Otherwise, the 12th reserve group would have completely collapsed long ago.

This place was bombarded by hundreds of Japanese infantrymen who were rapidly advancing towards this place.

As for the Chief's Department, they also sent telegrams specifically to inquire.

Jin made imitations of Japanese Type 3-year heavy machine guns, Japanese Type 92 heavy machine guns, and domestic Type 24 heavy machine guns.

"Shoot, suppress their rifle fire, and cover the infantry charge."

The 11th Reserve Regiment only has four mountain guns, six infantry guns, and twelve heavy machine guns. This is all their heavy weapons.

The sky turned dark unconsciously, and at around six o'clock in the afternoon, the 27th Division headquarters issued a withdrawal order.

They were able to effectively launch supporting artillery attacks on the 358th Regiment's position and the 11th Regiment's position under the guidance of the forward observation post.

One grenade after another landed at different locations in the position, and with the sound of explosions, shrapnel quickly spread in all directions.

The third artillery position is a field artillery position, including a Liao-made 77MM field gun, a Japanese-made Type 38 field gun, and a Jin-made 88MM field gun.

"Yes, Commander Chen." The captain and company commander quickly agreed and hurried back to the regiment headquarters along the communication trench.

The regiment's more than 2,200 troops have already suffered more than 700 casualties, and their current combat strength is only 1,500.

"Boom boom boom."

They can also take advantage of the firepower competition at more than 300 meters.

After Chen Ziyun was discovered, he was first hit by bullets and then howitzed.

Mountain artillery, infantry artillery, and rapid-fire artillery will quickly launch bombardments as soon as they find a target.

The little devils formed independent mixed brigade units. Each brigade did not have any artillery, only four heavy machine guns.

Each battalion's machine gun company and infantry cannon suppressed the Japanese troops to prevent them from continuing to follow up and attack.

After a while, the 11th Regiment prepared various weapons for shooting.

Otherwise, they will be easily shot down by artillery. After all, it is very difficult for them to move.

After calling several soldiers, he immediately conveyed the order.

"Kill me!"

Other firepower fired continuously to suppress and prepare the 11th Regiment's position.

The little Japanese who rushed to the front of the position and were less than 200 meters away from the position were hit by various firepower.

A dense barrage of bullets and grenades were fired at the little Japs, and many of the Japs who were advancing were knocked down one after another.

The Liao-made and Jin-made field guns both have a range of tens of thousands of meters, while the Japanese-made Type 38 field guns also have a range of 8,300 meters.

After the deployment of these weapons and equipment, a large number of heavy machine guns concentrated fire to suppress the attack.

"The commander's intention is very clear. They ask us to continue to hold on."

The company commander, deputy company commander, platoon commander, and deputy platoon commander continued shooting with submachine guns.

As the explosion sounded, the heavy machine gun was instantly overturned, leaving not even the intact bodies of the few Japs behind.

Chen Ziyun had a serious expression on his face. He specially found a company commander and gave the order directly.

The attacking Japs quickly withdrew, along with the infantry.

Chen Ziyun took out the shell gun with his right hand and got ready to shoot.

But each battalion under the 48th Independent Brigade has four heavy machine guns and two mortars.

"Go back to the regiment headquarters immediately and find regiment leader Wu Ziqiang or Shi Yuzhen, the regiment leader."

The first, second, and third artillery positions began to conduct artillery bombardments under the personal command of Li Yuanchun, the commander of the 24th Artillery Regiment.

The wounded soldiers had expressions of pain on their faces, and they looked around for help.

The first regiment of the garrisoned infantry at the front quickly launched into action, and the captain of the colonel regiment ordered the troops to advance at full speed.

Grenades were fired one after another, and the little Japanese sergeant commander who directed the battle had a serious expression on his face.

"Ziyun, do you want to prepare for the 11th Regiment to be replaced?"

For example, some main field brigades will receive additional rapid-fire artillery.

After Chen Ziyun learned about the situation on the front line, he was too lazy to return directly to the regiment headquarters.

After the Little Japanese troops stopped fighting, the 11th Reserve Regiment quickly rested and reorganized.

He continuously locked the target through the telescope and directed the infantry artillery to carry out strikes one after another.

But just as they were shooting, a grenade was fired without any warning.

The sergeant squad leader realized that he was completely exposed here, and he was about to issue a transfer order quickly.

A large number of bullets hit the bunker in front of the position, stirring up layers of dust.

Facing the little devil's attack, they no longer intercepted.

However, the entire regiment's heavy machine guns and grenade launchers quickly began firing.

Chen Ziyun stood up quickly and saw the little Japanese more than a hundred meters away.

Because it was the first three field divisions to be organized, the 27th Division received a series of reinforcements.

The first detachment of the 2,000-man First Guerrilla Column, which is responsible for the defense of the north and south sides of the 48th Independent Brigade, currently has more than 600 casualties.

Some field brigades of the little devils have specially strengthened two Type 94 rapid-fire guns. The armor-piercing projectiles fired by these 37MM rapid-fire guns are simply the nemesis of heavy machine guns.

The first regiment of infantry stationed in the garrison is directly under a mountain artillery brigade, with a total of twelve Type 41 mountain artillery.

"Then the artillery bombardment was carried out in batches to intercept them and the various regiments cooperated with each other."

The position of the 11th Reserve Regiment was suppressed by artillery, and the soldiers quickly took cover.

Chen Ziyun squatted in the trench, took a deep breath, and murmured to himself.

"As for when we can evacuate, we still need to wait for orders from the commander."

Its second detachment, a force of 2,000 men, also suffered about 500 casualties.

"Bagaya Road, quickly replace the bullet plate and keep the firepower going."

The Japs close to the position suffered casualties, but soon they started firing fiercely with various weapons.

Moreover, many of their heavy weapons were destroyed in this battle.

The three brigades have six infantry guns, four rapid-fire guns, and thirty-six heavy machine guns.

Some soldiers were hit in vital parts and died on the spot.

Intensive firepower came over, and some of the soldiers who were shooting began to fall in a pool of blood.

These machine guns fire in bursts, firing two or three rounds of bullets with high accuracy.

The little devil's Type 92 infantry gun was blown up on the spot.

Type 92 heavy machine guns sprayed flames one after another, and dense bullets hit the position one after another.

Thirty-six heavy machine guns, seven or eight were destroyed one after another.

With the help of these artillery pieces, the 27th Division's heavy weapons, which were set up in front of the position and were still firing fiercely, began to take hits.

A round of 11.43MM bullets was fired, and a little Japanese team leader fell to the ground.

Pungent smoke appeared, and within a short time, severed arms began to fall from the trench.

Mountain artillery, infantry artillery, rapid-fire artillery, and four or five were knocked out one after another.

A Type 92 infantry gun was constantly aiming and firing under the control of the little devil.

Type 92 heavy machine gun, crooked light machine gun, grenade launcher, infantry gun, rapid-fire gun.

The little Japanese troops quickly launched an attack in an attempt to quickly break through to the position.

I have to say that if conditions permit, Chen Ziyun will definitely replace all the heavy machine guns currently equipped.

Many of their heavy weapons are mountain artillery and field artillery to hit key targets.

The Jin-made Czech light machine gun started firing, firing 6.5MM bullets one after another.

The other soldiers were auxiliary shooters to distract the little devil's strike firepower.

The mountain artillery battery uses mobility to attack the Japanese heavy machine guns.

Seeing that their troops were frustrated, the 27th Infantry Division headquarters here hurriedly began to issue orders.

These three heavy machine guns weigh either about 100 kilograms or more than 100 kilograms.

"This is not how a head-to-head fight is fought. A firefight begins over 300 meters away."

There is a heavy machine gun here. The little Japanese squad leader waved his saber and commanded the Type 92 heavy machine gun to fire continuously.

It has to be said that most of the officers in the Jinsui Army are very obedient and command operations according to orders, without any idea of ​​flexibility.

"Tell Commander Li Yuanchun to focus on shelling the heavy weapons deployed by the Japs in front of the position and destroy these heavy weapons."

"Let them quickly get in touch with Li Yuanchun, the commander of the 24th Artillery Regiment. The first, third, and third artillery positions will fully support the operation here."

At nine o'clock in the evening, in the headquarters of the 48th Independent Brigade, Chu Yunfei looked at Chen Ziyun and asked directly.

"Tu tu tu tu."

Some little Japs began to be hit by shrapnel, and their painful wails continued to sound.

The firepower of the 11th Reserve Regiment was almost completely suppressed, making it difficult to organize effective defensive fire interception.

Sixteen Jin-made Type 17 mountain guns and sixteen field guns of different calibers.

And they also have a certain number of submachine guns, so they have an advantage in combat.

The artillery units began to fire, and the Japanese troops were beaten into a panic.

But now the situation is completely different. The three field regiments of the Little Devils are pressing forward at the same time.

In terms of learning ability, Wu Ziqiang cannot catch up with Liang Guoping!

The weapons and equipment of the Independent 48th Brigade are not too bad. Facing some small Japanese troops, they have an advantage.

"But to deal with the little Japanese field division, you will be showing your cowardice. They are not on the same level at all."

By around seven o'clock in the evening, the battlefield became quiet.

Wu Ziqiang is a typical example. With his abilities, being a team leader is considered to be the limit.

The smell of blood filled the air, and the little devil's screams of death could be clearly heard.

Thirty-six 75MM Type 94 mountain guns from the mountain artillery regiment launched artillery support, and shells were fired one after another.

However, at this time, various departments suffered heavy casualties.

"Brigade, prepare the 11th Regiment to continue the fight!"

"This unit can hold its position and block the attack of the Japanese troops."

"However, the first guerrilla column deployed on the flank may need to be adjusted."

Chen Ziyun looked at Chu Yunfei and answered directly.
