On the mountain ridge filled with gunpowder, infantry artillery shells rained down, firelight splashed, and gravel flew. Several soldiers wearing homespun military uniforms were blown into the sky at the same time, and they turned into bloody corpses when they landed on the ground.
"Dong dong dong..."
Before the explosions completely stopped, the dull sound of heavy machine gun fire could already be heard on the battlefield.
Six heavy machine guns were placed in a row on the mound in front of the mountain ridge, with long tongues of fire emitting from the muzzles.
The bullets fired were very accurate, and almost all of them flew against the top of the mountain ridge, creating an airtight fire net. Several soldiers in homespun military uniforms were blown up as soon as they poked their heads out, with red and white brains flying everywhere.
Horrible.
"Captain, the Japs are coming..." A cry suddenly sounded from the mountain ridge.
"Ahem... Bah..." Kong Jie coughed twice and climbed out of the crater, spit out the dirt in his mouth, and slowly poked his head out from the edge of the crater.
"Pooh……"
Political commissar Li Wenying climbed up from the crater at the same time, spit out the dirt in his mouth and began to complain.
"Lao Kong, the little Japs think too highly of us. When they come up, they will bombard us with infantry. They will not give our independent regiment a way to survive at all!"
"There are also six heavy machine guns and two infantry squadrons!" Kong Jie did not answer Li Wenying's words and introduced them while observing the enemy's situation.
Li Wenying was startled and quickly poked her head out of the crater.
More than three hundred Japanese soldiers were charging towards the mountain ridge. Some were holding rifles, some were holding crooked handles, and some were carrying grenade launchers. They rushed forward with howling and screaming, at a very fast speed...
His brows immediately furrowed and he analyzed with a heavy expression: "The enemy's offensive firepower is more than twice ours, and there are also mortars and infantry artillery to provide artillery cover. We are definitely no match for them in a head-to-head confrontation!"
"I'll fight even if I'm not my opponent!" Kong Jie gritted his teeth and replied firmly.
"The brigade headquarters is right behind, and we are the only one in the surrounding area. We can't let the Japanese threaten the safety of the brigade headquarters even if we try our best!"
"The whole regiment is ready for battle, prepare grenades and bayonets, and put the Japanese 50 meters away before firing!"
"After three shots were fired, grenades were thrown. The first and second battalions set bayonets and fought out with me. The political commissar and the third battalion stayed behind and fought back the Japanese attack at all costs!"
"Lao Kong, you are the regiment leader, and the independent regiment cannot do without you. I will lead the first and second battalions to counterattack, and you stay at your position!" Li Wenying rejected Kong Jie's order without hesitation.
"No, I am the military commander, and I have the final say on the war. I will lead the troops to charge, and you stay at your position!" Kong Jie insisted on the order just now.
The title of "Kong Er Fengzi" is not for nothing. He is usually best at charging and fighting tough battles. He can't let the political commissar go fight against the Japanese no matter what, and he stays behind as a spectator.
Li Wenying knew his partner very well: every time the troops encountered dangerous battles, he would be the first to rush forward to face the bullets. Now that he had made the decision to lead a counterattack, he would definitely not be able to pull back the eight horses.
We can only compromise: "Then you must pay attention to safety. No one can live without you, Kong Jie, without the Independent Group!"
"Huang Yu..." Li Wenying called his bodyguard.
"Here!" A young man with strong skills rushed over from behind.
"You will serve as a guard for the regiment commander from today on. If anything happens to the regiment commander on the battlefield, I will ask you for it!"
Huang Yu was confused for a moment, but he quickly accepted the order: "Political commissar, don't worry, as long as I still have breath, the little devil can't even think of hurting the regimental leader."
"No!" Kong Jie waved his hand and refused!
"Huang Yu is the guard you single-handedly brought out. What will you do if you follow me? I have a guard, so I can rest assured if he stays with you!"
Li Wenying insisted: "Lao Kong, you must listen to me this time!"
"The devils are menacing, and any accident may happen!"
"Huang Yu has practiced martial arts, has good skills, and has rich combat experience. Only by letting him follow you can I safely let you lead the counterattack. Otherwise, as the political commissar of the Independent Regiment, I have the right to veto the order you just made!"
Kong Jie also knew Li Wenying very well and knew that he meant what he said, so he could only nod in agreement: "Then let him follow me for the time being, and I will return it to you after the battle..."
"The Japanese are coming soon, the troops are ready for battle!"
"Try to use the machine gun to attack areas where there are many Japs. Don't worry about the little Japs' heavy machine guns! Our firepower is too weak. If we shoot at each other, we will only be beaten by them. We might as well take the opportunity to kill a few more Japs..."
Just as he was giving the order, Kong Jie easily pulled out the cannon from the box, turned on the safety, and faced a Japanese squad leader in front of him.
"Hit... bang bang bang..." The order to fire and the sound of gunshots sounded at the same time, and the Japanese squad leader fell to the ground in response.
Kong Jie turned his hand aside and continuously pulled the trigger at the Japanese machine gun team next to the squad leader.
The independent regiment's only eight light machine guns and more than 600 rifles joined the battle at the same time. The relatively intensive firepower killed fifty or sixty Japanese in an instant.
But their good luck didn't last long.
The Japanese who were attacked quickly fell to the ground and fought back.
As soon as the crooked gunmen who accompanied the attacking team opened fire, they suppressed the firepower of the machine guns on the ridge.
The grenade took the opportunity to fire out the grenade, as if it had eyes, instantly destroying three of the machine gun positions.
Kong Jie felt heartbroken after seeing this, and quickly suggested to Li Wenying: "The enemy's offensive firepower is too strong, and the longer the shooting continues, the more we will suffer..."
"Only by killing in advance and engaging in close combat can we make up for our shortcomings in firepower!"
"All the first and second battalions have their bayonets fixed, and the bugler blows the charge bugle, and follow me to kill..."
Before he finished speaking, Kong Jie took up his ghost-headed sword and rushed out of the mountain ridge.
Huang Yu chased after him, holding a box cannon in one hand and a sword in the other, guarding Kong Jie very vigilantly.
"kill……"
More than five hundred soldiers rushed out of the mountain ridge at the same time. Those with bayonets had their bayonets fixed, while those without bayonets held broadswords and red-tasseled guns in their hands. They roared and charged back towards the Japanese.
The crooked equipment of the Japanese army continued to fire, and many soldiers fell on the counterattack, but it was all worth it.
In just ten seconds, the two troops collided with each other with a loud bang.
Kong Jie's skills were very good. The ghost-headed sword in his hand slashed left and right, killing three Japanese in an instant.
Huang Yu simultaneously killed two Japs who wanted to sneak attack the group leader.
If it weren't for the purpose of protecting the group leader, with his skill, the result of the battle would definitely not be lower than that of Kong Jie.
The other soldiers are obviously not as skilled as them. On average, two soldiers have to be sacrificed to kill one Japanese soldier!
Even so, the Japanese still didn't want to fight the independent regiment, so they began to retreat after suffering over a hundred casualties.
Kong Jie stopped when he saw the situation was good and ordered the troops to withdraw to the mountain ridge.
It's too dangerous here. The enemy's heavy machine guns and artillery may cover this place at any time. The sooner you retreat, the safer it will be.
"Woooooo...boom...boom..." The troops had just retreated halfway when the screams and explosions of artillery shells across the sky rang in their ears. A dozen soldiers were blown away while running and fell to this land forever.
superior.
"Captain...get down quickly..." Huang Yu's exclamations sounded at the same time, and he instantly turned into a leopard and pounced on the captain.
