Chapter 1257 Machine Gun God of War (Part 2)
For Major Akita of the 2nd Infantry Battalion of the 40th Regiment, who was 10 miles away, he was quite comfortable facing the crazy assault of a Chinese infantry regiment.
With the heavy firepower of 12 heavy machine guns and two infantry cannons and the protection of mountains, without artillery strikes of the howitzer level, the Chinese, not to mention an infantry regiment, even a complete infantry brigade, would not be able to break through its defense line in one day.
Seeing the Chinese soldiers charging wildly and falling one by one less than 200 meters away from him, the Japanese Army Major with a calm expression probably never thought that another of his colleagues would be so crazy.
Fifty minutes after the battle broke out at Gongshui Stream, with the arrival of the 300 Japanese troops guarding the rear wing of the Seko Battalion, plus the remaining infantrymen who had previously withdrawn from the position and were still able to fight, the Seko Battalion regained 580 infantry and
There are more than 210 machine gunners, and 80% of the entire infantry brigade is still alive.
If they were to evacuate and move to other battlefields, the Seko Brigade would not only not be punished but might even gain greater military exploits.
For example, in the Sizhou Mountain Defense Zone, which is less than 15 miles away from here, Tang Dao, as the supreme commander, has already led Xia Dayu to the front line.
Tang Tuanzuo, who was forced to use all his strength by the frantically attacking Japanese army, even had a heart of failure for the first time.
This is the first time that Tang Dao has come to this unprecedented time and space. You must know that even in a desperate situation like Sihang Warehouse, Tang Dao has never thought about the word failure.
But this time it was really disappointing. Compared with the Japanese army on the opposite side, they lagged behind in everything from soldiers to equipment to the quality of the soldiers.
What's more terrible is that the Japanese are like crazy, thinking that Sizhou Mountain is a defense zone that can be broken through. Not only the infantry attacks madly, but also the terrifying 105 howitzer and bomber groups visit this position over and over again.
Just over an hour after early morning, the Sizhou Mountain position was visited by a group of two-wheeled bombers, and the 105 howitzer fired more than 400 rounds of saturation shells. This did not include the continuous bombardment of the 75 mountain artillery and infantry artillery.
As everyone knows, these are all strategies from the man named Nakamura Masao.
It seems that it was the Sichuan Army's new regiment and the Four Lines Regiment's supply company that suffered this disaster. According to Itagaki Shiro's information, Tang Tuanzao did not appear.
Masao Nakamura only made his judgment based on the number of the opponent opposite him. The 17th Division of the Northwest Army was famous in the North China battlefield in the battle of East Shanxi, and Masao Nakamura has always regarded it as his main opponent.
Masao Nakamura is a serious academic. He is not like those reckless men who think that only defeating the strongest is the most satisfying. What he wants is to win at the lowest cost.
After several days of testing, the Japanese frontline commander made a final judgment that the Sizhou Mountain area was the weak link of the Chinese 4th Group Army. The remaining troops worked hard to contain the main force of the Chinese, and then used this as a breakthrough to have a chance to break through.
Open the entire line of defense for the Chinese.
Coupled with the interspersed destruction of the two elite infantry brigades that entered the Chinese defense line from the gap, the victory on this battlefield must belong to him with a two-pronged approach.
Of course, this also has something to do with the 4th Division's Western Shock Detachment. In order not to let the "Injury-Free Division" hold him back, Nakamura Masao tried his best to persuade Itagaki Shiro to send his strongest reserve team, the 105th Division.
group.
As a result, after the defense change, it was discovered that the 4th Division suffered only two to three hundred casualties after two or three days of fighting. This was in sharp contrast to the infantry brigade led by Nakamura Masao himself but suffered more than a thousand casualties.
It is certain that the ‘Injury-Free Division’ will be passive and slow in its work, but the opponents of the 4th Division will also be no good!
After doing this for a long time, I am the clown! Who else do you think would have the urge to be so angry that I get internal injuries?
Therefore, Nakamura Masao strengthened his judgment and concentrated fire to attack Sizhou Mountain and defeat the Chinese miscellaneous army.
Don't tell me, Masao Nakamura's mistaken judgment is really the truth. 4,000 new soldiers plus more than 1,000 heavy troops are worse than a motley army.
If the Segu Battalion takes the opportunity to attack from the flank at this time, the Sizhou Mountain defense line, which is already in a state of distress, will inevitably be in chaos. At that time, Tang Tuanzuo, even with three heads and six arms, will not be able to save the defeat.
It's a pity that Lieutenant Colonel Sekosuke was already "blinded by lard" at this time, so he fell madly in love with Sergeant Luo Wanjian's second idol in life--Second Lieutenant Long. He would not let this beloved man go.
With that machine gun crushing bones and scattering ashes, Lieutenant Colonel Sekosuke vowed not to give up.
Unlike the 96th Army and the 46th Independent Brigade, which had deployed their last troops to support Munan Town, Tang Tuanzuo could not care less about the lives of General Baifa and Long Yan at this time.
Because Tang Dao also went crazy.
That was the most vigorous and dangerous battle he fought since he became the commander of the independent battalion.
If this battle was defeated, he, Ming Xin, Lu Sanjiang and others might be able to escape with their own abilities, but the new soldiers and heavy supplies, including Zhuang Shisan, would all be dead.
And this is not the most important thing. What is important is that the entire Zhongtiao Mountain Defense Zone may collapse as a result, which is related to the survival of more than 200,000 Chinese troops and tens of thousands of mountain people living here.
Tang Dao would never want to see the tragic defeat in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain repeated in history!
This wave of artillery bombs was blasted in the middle of winter. The more than 3,000 officers and soldiers who were still alive were all sweating profusely. From this alone, you know how ferocious the Japanese artillery fire was.
Tang Tuanzuo carried his Mosin-Nagant rifle and changed nearly 10 battle positions in a row during the 20-minute defensive operation, with an average of less than 2 minutes per battle position.
It is true that Tang Dao's rifle is so accurate that it can inflict pain on an infantry squad of Japanese infantry every minute on average. It is simply more terrifying than Long Yan's MG34 machine gun that shoots wildly.
Therefore, he was also targeted by the Japanese grenade launchers and infantry artillery. Whenever you find which direction has the most infantrymen falling, you should definitely look for the 'super sharpshooter' in that direction.
Fortunately, Tang Tuanzuo's instinct for predicting danger was unparalleled in this era, and he always ran away the moment before the Japanese artillery shells and grenades came.
Therefore, during the 20 minutes of the Japanese infantry's furious attack, Tang Dao also set a record of his own, killing nearly 10 Japanese soldiers, but wounding more than 110 Japanese infantrymen!
There were never any wounded soldiers under Tang Tuanzuo's gun!
But this time it was too difficult, so Tang Dao could only choose another way to relieve the pressure on the position.
This time, he did not target the head and chest, but mainly the lower body of the Japanese army. He tried his best not to kill the opponent, so the Japanese army had to use more people to drag these unlucky children out of the battlefield.
110 wounded soldiers often required more than twice the assistance of Japanese infantry to escape. It can also be understood that Tang Tuanzuo involved an infantry squadron and a half by himself.
In the future, this will probably be a plot that even the editors of dramas with so much imagination would dare to imagine hiding mines in their crotches and tearing up Japanese soldiers with their hands. But sometimes, the reality is really more exaggerated than the blind bastards imagined.
.
Tang Tuan Zuwei has reached the pinnacle of individual combat power and is almost difficult to surpass.
But why do you say almost? That’s because in less than a few hours, Long Yan, the most powerful individual soldier in the Zhongtiao Mountain battle, is about to make his debut.
That is an existence that no one can surpass, not even Tang Tuanzuo.
Because he did not have a Japanese Army Lieutenant Colonel who was rated as a "Malu" type within the Japanese Army to cooperate with him.
Yes, it is common for the Japanese navy and army to call each other "Malu", but this is the first time in the history of the Japanese military that a top army command organization has evaluated itself as "Malu".
Lieutenant Colonel Sekosuke is honored to be ranked first!
Moreover, this round of offensive and defensive battles led by him has been successfully included in the classic battle cases of military academies in more than 60 countries around the world, but they are all negative examples.
Even in the Japanese military academy after the war, there was a saying: "It doesn't matter if you have a hard head, as long as you have a hard head. If you want to avoid being scolded, don't be a Sekousuke!"
There is a saying that goes, ‘If you can’t be famous forever, you will be infamy for eternity, and you can’t live in obscurity!’ From this point of view, Lieutenant Colonel Sekosuke is definitely a successful person.
.......
At 10 a.m. on January 11, 1939, the most terrifying battlefield in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain began.
Neither side has artillery, only guns!
Small cannons such as grenades have never been classified as artillery!
But such a battlefield without artillery has eclipsed battlefields such as Sizhou Mountain that have withstood the bombardment of 105-mm howitzers and 500-pound aerial bombs.
Because the death rate of one side participating in the war was so high, it ranked among the top ten even in the entire Patriotic War.
In the Battle of Songhu in time and space, 60,000 Gui troops charged to the death and suffered 40,000 casualties. Corpses in yellow military uniforms covered dozens of blocks in Songhu.
Is the casualty rate high? It was so high that the coach of the Gui Army, "Xiao Zhuge" burst into tears in public.
Known as the battle to defend Moscow in the East, the Battle of Hengyang, the 10th Army was responsible for the defense of 760,000 people, but only 1,200 people survived in the end, not even one out of ten!
Is the casualty rate high? So high that the Japanese army recorded in "The Final Battle of the Imperial Japanese Army": General Fang Xianxian, the enemy's defender, was the number one brave and skilled tiger general. His spirit of fighting bravely in a lonely city is really admirable!
However, in terms of casualty rates, these classic battles are still far from the battlefield on this small hillside.
"Gentlemen, this is a battle to the death! The withdrawal order will not be issued, and anyone who dares to look back will be killed! Break through the position in front of you and reach the Chinese general's station. All property will be yours." A white cloth band was tied around his head and he was carrying it in his hand.
Sekosuke, who commanded the sword, stood in front of hundreds of Japanese infantrymen whose heads were also wrapped in white cloth, and issued military orders with a ferocious face.
Four murderous heavy machine guns were set up in front of the Japanese infantry formation. The white cloths wrapped around the heads of the four groups of heavy machine gunners were all taken from the white shirts of the wounded soldiers, and the blood that had not yet dried was even dripping.
Supervising the battle team is not what this army lieutenant colonel said verbally. He would rather lose heavy firepower against the enemy than aim his guns at his colleagues who dare not advance.
All the Japanese soldiers bowed their heads in silence.
"Yo Xi! I'm here waiting for good news from you all! The empire's military fortune will be prosperous!" Sekousuke nodded, pointed the command knife at the high ground ahead, and shouted sternly: "Attack!"
"Prosperous military fortunes for the empire!" Captain Maeda, standing in the Japanese infantry formation, shouted hoarsely.
The Japanese Army captain, who was already filled with fear, probably didn't realize that his voice was as light as a mosquito, because what followed was the deafening roar of the infantrymen, "The Empire's military fortune is prosperous."
Not everyone has a clear mind like the captain who was ordered to lead the charge against Japan.
The prosperity of the empire's martial arts is very impressive. The wealth in small towns in China and the wanton slaughter allow the bestiality of beasts to be unleashed, but the prerequisite is that there must be life!
Therefore, the Japanese army captain who was ordered by his superiors' cruel military orders and was coerced into the first wave of attack by ordinary Japanese infantrymen whose eyes were bloodshot died.
When he entered a position less than 200 meters away from the Chinese position, he was taken away by Second Lieutenant Long who was becoming more and more skillful with a long continuous shot.
Who makes the Japanese army captain who is afraid in his heart still hold the sharp sword made by his family until his death?
Anyone who can hold a saber must be a commander! Long Yan’s understanding is absolutely correct.
A series of 30 bullets swept towards Captain Maeda. It was not necessary to hit all of them. As long as one-fifth hit the body, Amaterasu would not be able to save him.
"Onboard!" the Japanese army burst out with deafening slogans.
The scene of nearly 600 Japanese troops rushing forward in eight waves, facing the flames of a heavy machine gun fired from the flank, is definitely a classic.
To use Long Yan’s original words after the war: “This is the first time I kill a person, and I feel weak even after killing him! People are almost numb!”
The MG34 in his hand only stopped for ten seconds when changing the ammunition belt and changing the barrel. Other than that, it never stopped shooting.
The two signal soldiers had no time to do anything else, and they didn't even care about fear. They just kept their heads down and kept loading bullets and cooling down the almost red barrels that had been replaced.
If there is no water, then pee; if there is no urine, then use saliva
Anyway, they couldn't stop the machine guns.
They didn't even think they could win this battle, they were almost just driven by instinct to do this job.
In fact, even Long Yan himself didn't think he could do anything. As he said, he was numb, so he just aimed at all the visible Japanese soldiers in his field of vision in a completely mechanical way.
The bullets fired wildly by the Japanese army passed through the shooting holes and grazed his helmet, leaving a deep mark. The huge kinetic energy pushed him hard and almost broke his relatively strong neck. The second lieutenant who had already killed him directly
Throw the helmet off.
A shrapnel from a grenade that exploded less than two meters in front of him cut his brow, causing blood to flow in an instant. Long Yan grabbed the dirt from the ground and applied it to the wound. He still couldn't stop the dripping blood from dripping onto the switch.
The gun barrel, which was still hot when it came down, made a terrible hissing sound.
But none of this stopped the machine gun in Long Yan's hand from emitting deafening gunfire.
One row of Japanese soldiers fell, then another row of Japanese soldiers rushed up, and then they fell again.
The Japanese army is like huge waves and rough waves, while the Chinese position is like an ancient reef that has been formed for thousands of years. It is beaten hard by huge waves and rough waves, but it still exists.
The God of Death was enjoying this gluttonous feast crazily!
Sekosuke's expression changed from ferocious at first, to disbelief, and then to despair.
He bet that his opponent's gun was almost out of bullets, which was a complete joke.
What's even more ridiculous is not only the initial stage, but after he was frustrated in three consecutive attack waves, the terrible machine gunner gave up long bursts and used short bursts, causing the fourth wave of attack queues to approach the 60-meter area of the opponent's position.
He already felt regretful and decided to go to the gambling table again.
The Chinese are running out of bullets, and if this guy is missing, he will be finished.
If he could break through the position in front of him and take the head of the Chinese general, he could completely make up for the mistake of losing 400 soldiers.
This is a typical gambler's mentality. You know clearly that you may lose everything and your family will be ruined, but you still hope that you can make up your money by investing again. If you make up your money, you will stop playing.
After ordering the supervising team to fire and kill a dozen infantrymen who dared to retreat, Sekosuke waved his command knife and stood less than 400 meters away from the high ground, driving the last 400 infantrymen to continue his "dare-to-die charge"!
Even in the end, he even mobilized a hundred people from the heavy machine gun squadron to carry rifles.
Then, he discovered in despair that the bullets of the machine gun seemed to be endless. After killing more than 600 people, it was still spitting out tongues of fire.
That must have been a machine gun from hell, and Sekosuke finally collapsed in despair.
After the last wave of Japanese infantry fell on the battlefield in despair, the Japanese army lieutenant colonel, who was completely overwhelmed by despair, made an even more stupid decision.
He had a caesarean section on the spot.
Then, the only remaining Japanese grenadiers and heavy machine gunners were paralyzed!
Because they have lost all their officers, and there are only two second lieutenants and squad leaders left on the scene, not from the infantry, but from the heavy machine gun squad.
The captain of their heavy machine gun squadron was also forced onto the battlefield by the crazy Lieutenant Colonel, and died of course on the hillside stained red with the blood of the imperial infantry.
Without their commander, the Japanese grenadiers and heavy machine gunners, who had been stunned, decided to run away. They did not forget to take 11 heavy machine guns with them when they fled.
The famous Type 92 heavy machine gun has fierce firepower, but it can weigh up to 55 kilograms with a tripod. Without four strong men, who can lift it?
The Japanese soldiers who fled in panic came up with a good idea. As long as the gun body did not require a tripod, it would not be considered a loss of imperial equipment.
As a result, the Type 92 heavy machine gun, which was originally quite powerful, completely became a decoration.
Second Lieutenant Long, who was also killing them madly, had no intention of letting them go. Long before the last two waves of Japanese infantry were shot in vain on the hillside, he had ordered the signal troops to crawl to the frontal position and left wing and notify the three guard squad leaders.
, mobilized most of the submachine gunners, took a detour from the rear, and pursued the remnants of the Japanese army who had lost all their infantry at any time.
A total of 18 submachine gunners, led by two sergeants, Luo Wanjian and Wang Dashui, participated in this exciting jungle chase.
The combat effectiveness of the Japanese grenadiers and heavy machine gunners who lost the protection of infantry in this kind of close combat was not much better than that of quail.
They tried their best to get closer to the 2nd Infantry Group, but the distance did not even exceed 3 miles.
A Japanese infantry brigade rushed toward Munan Town with great momentum. Except for the more than 20 grenadiers and heavy machine gunners who were lucky enough to escape into the mountains and forests, the rest were wiped out!
"Great victory, annihilate the invading Japanese army!"
When a signal soldier rushed to Munan Town at the fastest speed in his life to report the results of the battle to the white-haired general who had led all the civil servants and established a position in the town with spears and guns, he was directly grabbed by the angry white-haired general.
I held my head against my head, and the safety had been flipped open.
If you attack an infantry brigade with 50 people and completely annihilate it, I don't blame you if you think I'm a fool, but lying about military information is a capital crime!
"If you don't believe me, send someone to see it yourself!"
It's not that the signal soldiers can be considered clever, but the signal soldiers who are just a little short of running and running out of breath are really out of breath.
The shit-yellow color covering the hillside was a sight that the white-haired general who arrived at the scene in person once wrote, "The blood under the lady's pass is like frost" will be unforgettable in his life!
Even the gorgeous autumn colors in Fululing where he was buried with half of his ashes given by his children after his death were inferior to this moment!
