"Fight back on the spot! The squadron and the rear team immediately seize the high ground!"
Heart-rending shouts rang out from the bushes.
Yes, after the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes fired the gun, and the crisp sound of the gunshot shattered the tranquility of Sanyue Valley, the Japanese army captain's tactical actions can definitely be described as "quick as lightning to cover up ears and steal bells".
His signal soldiers barely saw an afterimage flash by. The man, who was then the top commander of the infantry squadron that was to be strengthened, ducked into a thicket with thick branches that even pheasants and rabbits would have to consider.
Maybe it can't stop the Chinese bullets, but it can definitely stop some coveting eyes, especially when the mountain road is full of khaki imperial military uniforms.
This can be regarded as another trait evolved from the Japanese army captain who has lost all his energy. Cautious is just a nice word to describe, but the underlying logic is 'a dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist'!
But this does not mean that he has forgotten his responsibility as a commander. The sound of gunfire is not intensive, which means that there are not many enemies. Therefore, the Japanese army captain lying in the bushes still issued military orders quickly and efficiently.
.
According to conventional tactics, the front team led by Captain Pighead was attacked, and the two infantry teams at the rear were several hundred meters away from the attack site. Unless the Chinese could ambush hundreds of people on the mountain roads on both sides, nearly a hundred people would go up.
Not only was it easy to climb and occupy the high ground, it was also possible to kill all the Chinese on the mountainside or on the top of the mountain.
Unfortunately, there was a loud "bang" sound from behind, which was comparable to the explosion of a dynamite pack.
It was made by a friend with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Seven or eight logs weighing seven or eight hundred kilograms rumbled down the mountain. It was strange that the sound was not loud.
That is a weapon that Yeyue Village has used for more than a hundred years to guard the house. It is a life-saving thing!
When not in use, the pile of logs is covered with dead branches and vines. From a distance, it looks like a pile of rocks covered with vines. You won't be able to tell anything about it unless you climb up hard.
When it is time to use it, pull the rope and open the simple mechanism that blocks the logs. The piled logs will crash down and block the mountain road. After use, they will be returned to the mountain and stuck.
Of course, the ancestors of Yeyue Village were wise enough to know that to attack the invading enemies, placing personnel on the top of a high mountain would only delay the time for the villagers to rush down. Therefore, all the organs were placed on top of the mountain.
Below a height of 150 meters, this height is enough to gradually accelerate those heavy guys and then smash people into pulp.
In the face of such a powerful force, the Japanese troops instantly dispersed, and the wolf rush was very lively. The log rolled down the nearly 200-meter hillside for more than 10 seconds, which was enough for the Japanese troops to escape, except for a few unlucky children who were unfortunately killed.
After squeezing into the creek and spraining their feet, the Japanese soldiers basically escaped from the area where the logs were thrown.
In other words, this wave of rolling wood strikes did not achieve its goal.
"Yo Xi! Send the order, the rear team continues to go up the mountain, quickly." Chuntian Youwu over there did not hear the screams coming from more than a hundred meters away, and breathed a sigh of relief. He kept observing the top of the mountain and continued to give orders.
Above where he was, there was a rock as high as a person. Even if a rock rolled down, it would basically be blocked or bounced away. This was why the Japanese Army captain was really relieved.
For the eighty or ninety Japanese soldiers in the rear, after the dust cleared, the scene in front of them made them involuntarily yell, "Baga!"
Each log is four to five meters long and weighs eight hundred kilograms. They are blocked in various directions on the mountain road. People have to climb through them if they want to pass, and horses can't even think about it.
Although the back road is not completely blocked, if you want to return from the original route, you will definitely not be able to run.
Of course, these logs were smashed down like this, not just to block the retreat of the Japanese army. As the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes later explained, the ancestors of Yeyue Village did this, which was actually a kind of intimidation psychological suggestion.
, this is just the first batch, there will be more to come, if you want to climb up, you have to be careful.
Going up the mountain is not as good as going down the mountain. It takes time for these big guys to roll down. People on the mountain road still have enough time to run back and forth to avoid them. Once they reach the mountain, if they happen to be on the route of people climbing the mountain,
, the chance of being crushed to death is higher than 70%, unless you have the agility of an ape in the mountains.
And this is obviously not what the Japanese infantrymen who wear heavy cowhide boots, carry rifles, wear steel helmets and carry loads of more than ten kilograms have.
To put it bluntly, this is just an appetizer for the dense traps on this road called death in Yeyue Village. The real feast is yet to come.
Otherwise, everyone in Yeyue Village would not all agree to place the ambush locations in this area.
It's not just them who want to fight, the ancestors who worked hard to run Yeyue Village also stand with them.
The Japanese soldiers in the rear group were buzzing with excitement as they looked at these large logs, but human beings are often unwilling to die until they reach the Yellow River.
What's more, they were the "elites" of the Japanese Army who had received military orders? How could they be frightened by such an extremely primitive rolling log?
As a result, under the cover of four light machine guns and more than 20 rifles, at least 50 Japanese infantry soldiers, led by Cao Chang-level Japanese troops, marched towards the hillside.
Their legs were short, but they were really strong and strong. Within ten seconds, the Japanese soldiers at the front had already climbed up the 50-meter-high hillside.
The young villager closest to the Japanese soldier, who was lying on the grass nest and holding a gun tightly, could even hear the heavy breathing of the Japanese soldier.
However, under the careful training of Long Ying in the past three years, the Yeyue Village Guards have strict regulations similar to those of the army. They are not allowed to attack before their respective captains issue an order to attack.
In the past three years, I don’t know how many young people have been punished for making this mistake. They have to carry 10 loads of water from the mountain. Carrying a load of nearly 100 kilograms of water up the mountain can exhaust a strong young man.
What's more, it's 10 tons, and the ecstasy-like feeling is terrifying enough just to hear it.
Therefore, no matter how scared he was, the young man held the gun tightly and lay motionless.
"Release the rolling stones!" the guard captain's voice sounded.
In addition to logs, the mechanisms in this area also include large stones, including more than a dozen stones as big as millstones.
Three or four logs and rolling stones rolled down again. The Japanese soldiers stared wide-eyed at the wood and stones jumping in the air and rolling through the bushes at high speed, trying desperately to calculate whether they were on the rolling route of those damn primitive weapons.
The Japanese soldier who ran the fastest was like a clumsy but extremely lucky ape. He had just dodged a big rock that was jumping crazily, but with a quick jump, he passed a rock that almost rolled past his feet.
Logs that are constantly accelerating.
If he could survive until the end of the war, his reaction in this moment would be enough for him to brag about his awesomeness for the rest of his life.
However, his good luck ended here.
"Peng!" Then there was the roar of bird cannons.
"Peng! Peng! Peng!" Gunpowder smoke instantly filled the mountainside, and the 30 bird cannons distributed in this area opened fire one after another.
A bird gun similar to a spray gun does not rely on one or two projectiles to kill, but a ball of iron sand pushed by gunpowder. The lethality of a single iron sand is limited. This kind of gun is basically used to kill birds, foxes, and rabbits.
To hunt small beasts, wild boars, leopards and other big beasts, either 10 bird cannons are used to focus the fire, or they are close enough, otherwise it is not as useful as a steel fork.
A distance of nearly 100 meters is almost the killing limit of a bird cannon. If it is only concentrated by a bird cannon, even with such a fragile human defense, it will basically only be injured but not killed. It will be nothing more than a dozen iron sands embedded in the body.
, Western medicine can treat it in time, and under the guiding ideology of digging out where the injury is, at most there will be a dozen more scars on the body.
But unfortunately, because his target was so obvious, not only was the guard captain shooting at him, but at least five muskets were also aimed at him.
That really made a Japanese soldier with peach blossoms all over his body, who was hit by at least dozens of iron sands and bleeding profusely, drop his beloved rifle with a miserable cry, and roll on the hillside with his eyes covered.
His eyeballs were shot out, and he vomited and urinated under the severe pain, but he could not die for a while. He was like a pheasant with its throat cut on the hillside, struggling with the last bit of strength.
If he had a choice, this guy would definitely want to be shot in the head. At least it wouldn't hurt that much.
The dead are actually happy at this time.
The group of living Japanese infantrymen were the most painful, because they needed to make a choice, whether to lie down and shoot at the group of Chinese who suddenly appeared, or to hide from the logs and stones that were running wildly.
No matter the former or the latter, they will all die if they encounter it. The main reason for the choice is that the way to die is more beautiful.
After a Japanese infantryman who couldn't evade was smashed into a paper figure by a wildly smashed log, and blood splashed out for more than ten meters, most of the Japanese soldiers felt that it was more important to preserve the corpse. Besides, everyone now
They are all single-shot rifles, so who doesn’t have to waste time to pull the bolt?
I can’t tell, and I can’t even shoot accurately!
Their little minds were indeed very smart, and they made the most correct choice almost in an instant. The only two mistakes were: first, those colleagues who had placed machine guns, grenade launchers, and rifles on the mountain road ran away.
There was no one to help them suppress the Chinese on the mountainside; secondly, the Chinese not only had blunderbuss, but also an MG34 machine gun with a rate of fire of up to 1,000 rounds.
260 meters away, Zhang Saner, who was lying in a concave fortification covered with vines and made of granite, wearing camouflage clothes on the left side of the mountain road, had already noticed the situation at the back end of the mountain road.
For him, almost the entire hillside and mountain road on the opposite side are within his shooting range!
Seeing dozens of Japanese soldiers jumping crazily on the hillside to avoid rocks and rolling logs, how could this fireman, who was valued by Shen Laoliu, let go of this good opportunity? He pressed his shoulder against the butt of the gun and fired more than 20 bullets.
Just shoot it in long bursts.
Like a whip, it hit the Japanese soldiers hard. At least five or six Japanese soldiers fell to the bushes with Xuan'er in their arms.
Just now, 30 cannons were used to knock down 4 Japanese soldiers, and so many rolling logs and rocks were able to kill only 3 of them. As a result, Zhang Saner killed five or six of them when he took action.
In other words, in this round alone, the Japanese army almost lost a small unit!
The Japanese troops were horrified. They took advantage of the rolling logs and rocks to reach the bottom and fell down one after another to avoid them!
Zhang San'er, who had already exposed himself, no longer had any scruples and turned his gun straight to point at the Japanese infantrymen in the front team who were setting up machine guns and grenade launchers and had just fired a few shots and fired a grenade into the hill on the right.
"Da da da!" This burst of shots was crisp and lasting. It lasted for nearly 20 seconds and fired nearly 200 rounds of bullets.
Lieutenant Inotozaburo, who was hiding behind the rock and kept roaring back, was heartbroken!
It's not that bullets suddenly flew from behind. All colleagues were already prepared for this, but they never expected that the Chinese, who had been attacking with extremely primitive firearms, would have such a terrifying machine gun.
The all-out attack from just one firepower point caused more than a dozen casualties on the spot. This kind of firepower intensity was unheard of in his seven years in the army.
What are the desperate counterattacks of the Chinese mountain people here and there? They are clearly regular troops! And they are the elite of the regular army.
Fortunately, there may not be many elite regular troops, only an infantry squad at most. This may be the reason why the Chinese mountain people took the initiative to ambush them.
Don't tell me, Inoto Saburo actually analyzed the details of his opponent with just a machine gun. This ability value is definitely higher than that of a Japanese army captain. If he is made a Japanese army commander, it will be extremely difficult.
Multiplied.
You know, Inoto Saburo is different from those greenhouse flowers that hang as trainee second lieutenants after graduating from the non-commissioned officer school in the spring. He went from an inferior soldier to an upper class soldier to a commander based on his military exploits. He was just promoted not long ago.
He is the captain of the second lieutenant team. He has been promoted step by step. His tactics and courage are far superior to those of his colleagues at the same level. Otherwise, he would not have made suggestions even though he knew that Captain Haruta had no intention of causing trouble.
But this extremely important analysis was obtained at the cost of the lives of more than a dozen soldiers under his command. If possible, Inotozaburo would rather choose other paths.
"Grenade, due south of the left wing, straight-line distance 180, height 200, two groups of three consecutive shots, kill him!" Inotozaburo threw the telescope aside and observed directly with the naked eye. It took more than ten seconds, and finally
The general area of Zhang Saner was determined.
The reason why telescopes are not used is not that the distance is not far enough, but that it is eight or nine o'clock at this time, the rising sun has just jumped over the top of the mountain, and the sunlight is shining on the mountain road and the right slope.
The lens of the telescope will form dazzling spots under the reflection of sunlight, even if it is blocked by shrubs.
During the attack on Niangzi Pass last year, a second lieutenant of the regiment's escort team finally got the opportunity to go to the front line to practice gilding. Then, the newly promoted lieutenant couldn't suppress his excitement and picked up a telescope in the trench.
The cold gunman who was ambushed by the Chinese on the mountain was killed with a shot from 300 meters away. After inspection afterwards, it was found that the bullet entered the eye socket through the telescope tube. It was the dazzling reflection that allowed the Chinese cold gunman to find the target.
Inotozaburo's rich battlefield experience saved his life!
The reason why Shen Laoliu and Zhang Saner chose to be on the left wing was precisely because of the rising sun behind them. Even if his sight was camouflaged, he would never give the Japanese army a chance to easily discover him.
But if any Japanese officer dared to pick up a telescope, he would become his prey.
The smoke created by the concentrated fire of 40 gunners below will become his best cover!
"Hit!" As the Japanese machine gun bullets came over, two consecutive grenade grenades exploded around Zhang San, who was holding the machine gun and rolling to avoid it. An escort squad leader finally gave the order.
40 muskets were fired at the Japanese troops more than 100 meters away!
The gunpowder smoke powered by black powder was like lighting a fire, becoming the best target for the Japanese army.
Machine guns and rifles fired back quickly, especially a Type 92 heavy machine gun, which fired a row of bullets.
Even though the 40 gunners were required to keep their bodies low before the battle and each found a bunker, they were not soldiers after all, and the marksmanship of the Japanese veterans was terrifying!
Just during this round of shooting, more than 15 gunners let out heart-piercing screams!
It is said that he is young and strong, but in fact, in the concept of Yeyue Village, as long as he is over 14 years old, he is an adult and is eligible to get married and become the head of the family.
Therefore, in fact, more than 100 of these 400 people are just teenagers between the ages of 14 and 18.
Even though the cruel nature has given them enough toughness, the 6.5mm Tomosaka bullets equipped by the Japanese army at this time have been improved after experiencing the Battle of the Great Wall. After encountering obstacles when penetrating the body, the warhead armor is opened.
This causes the warhead to flip over instead of passing through the body straight and smoothly as it did a few years ago.
The penetrating injury caused by the flip may not be as big as that caused by the 7.92mm round-head bullet made in Hanyang, but it is at least as thick as a wine glass. Even a battle-hardened soldier like Shen Laoliu cannot bear that kind of severe pain.
What's more, they are a group of teenagers who are no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.
Shen Laoliu even saw a boy who must have been no more than fourteen or fifteen years old being hit by a grenade blast, screaming in agony, and thrown from behind a bunker onto an uncovered hillside.
A middle-aged man who should be one of his relatives jumped out of the bunker without hesitation and threw himself on him, blocking the bullets fired from behind.
The area between the two people was only 200 meters apart. They were extremely clear and attracted the shooting of several Japanese soldiers.
Flowers of blood burst out on the middle-aged man’s not-so-generous back!
That scene was extremely tragic!
If they are not comrades-in-arms, no one can do this except their closest relatives and bloodline!
After the war, two soldiers learned that the boy and the middle-aged man were father and son. The father was shot 14 times and died, but the boy he tried to protect with his life had a shrapnel hit his head and even died before him.
!
But, will my father care so much?
At that moment, there was no life or death, only father and son!
Shen Laoliu's eyes turned red!
But he still remained as calm as ice!
The lives of more than a dozen villagers gave him a rare opportunity to fight!
His Czech semi-automatic rifle has 10 bullets, and he must and can only fire them all within 10 seconds.
Kill all six targets he found!
This is beyond the scope of his ability. There may be no more than three people in the entire Four Elements Group who can do it, but he must surpass himself, otherwise, this battle will be even more difficult to fight!
