Now Lu Xianping is not a rookie when he first joined the army. Now he has grown from a private to a qualified squad leader. Especially his marksmanship is very famous in the second battalion. Even the platoon leader gives him three points of honor.
However, facing Lei Hu who was yelling at him behind him, Lu Xianping did not dare to have any objections. He would even kick his company commander if he really wanted to piss him off.
Lu Xianping, who was scolded bloody, did not tell the difference, but asked the deputy squad leader to take the soldiers to hide. He quickly ran to a commanding height not far from the right and lay down, and took out a piece of yellow-brown from behind.
When the camouflage blanket was draped over the body, the whole thing turned into an inconspicuous mound.
After doing all this, Lu Xianping opened the cover of the ZF42 4x scope on the rifle and started searching.
They are now about 400 meters away from the Japanese army on the opposite side. When faced with such a long distance, the mechanical sight of an ordinary rifle can basically only vaguely see a small black dot, but Lu Xianping, who is equipped with a quadruple scope, is different.
.
Through the scope, he could clearly see the figure of the Japanese army more than 400 meters away.
"Where...where...ah...I saw..."
Although the Japanese artillery position was very concealed, the clever concealment could not block the sound of the gunfire. Lu Xianping quickly locked an anti-tank gun through the fire.
He first took out a handkerchief from his pocket and shook it in the wind, calculated the wind direction and speed, and locked the cross in the scope to a Type 1 47mm tank gun that was being designed, but most of this gun was hidden in the crater.
, even the gunner huddled behind the artillery, unable to lock on at all.
Lu Xianping moved the muzzle of the gun and pointed it at a Japanese soldier who was busy carrying shells behind the artillery. He then held his breath, slightly shifted the crosshair two degrees to the right, and finally pulled the trigger.
"bump……"
As the gunfire rang out, a loader who was bending to carry the shells fell to the sky, and the shells in his hand also fell to the ground.
"Click!" Another 7.92x57mm rifle cartridge was loaded into the chamber.
As the loader fell, another loader hurried over and tried to pick up the shell that fell to the ground. However, as soon as he bent down, another bullet whizzed out and knocked him to the ground.
The role of an excellent sniper was clearly revealed at this time. Under Lu Xianping's sharp eyes, he found the locations of the two anti-tank guns.
Soon, the gunners were called out one by one. In the end, they were so frightened that no one dared to go to the back to carry the shells. Only a few gunners were left huddled behind the anti-tank guns, not daring to show any figure.
And Lu Xianping also relied on a 98K rifle to suppress the two combat anti-cannons without any temper.
Without the threat of two anti-tank guns, the tanks of the armored battalion took the opportunity to speed up and charge forward, and soon began to have close contact with the third group.
Faced with the rapidly approaching tanks, the desperate Japanese troops could only repeat their old tricks and launched a suicide charge. A Japanese soldier carrying an explosive bag jumped out of the bunker and rushed towards the oncoming tanks, but they were unable to do so.
Most people have done useless work and can only become dead souls shot by guns.
"boom……"
Along with a loud noise, a plume of thick smoke rose.
Lu Xianping saw that a No. 4 tank more than 200 meters ahead on the left, which had escaped from the infantry cover due to rushing too fast, had its tracks peeled off and was spinning in place. The tank's turret began to rotate around, and its long barrel pointed towards
At this time, several figures emerged from the Japanese army's position, ducking down and rushing towards the tank.
Although the machine gun in the tank turret began to fire, Lu Xianping knew that without infantry cover, it would only be a matter of time before the tank was blown up by Japanese meat bombs. The sight inside the tank was limited, and the rotation of the turret relied entirely on manpower. He wanted to use parallel machine guns to repel attacks from several directions.
An incoming human bomb is impossible.
Seeing this, Lu Xianping shouted, "Smoke bomb!"
"Whizzing……"
"Bang bang bang..."
Several smoke bombs exploded dozens of meters away, emitting thick smoke.
Under the cover of smoke bombs, Lu Xianping divided his squad into two combat groups and used the terrain to approach the Japanese defense line in a roundabout way.
But as soon as he appeared, Lu Xianping discovered that more than a dozen Japanese soldiers appeared on the opposite side. The enemy's rifles fired first. Although the bullets were sparse, they were very accurate.
"Fireteam!"
Lu Xianping roared.
The machine gun team following him quickly stepped forward and rushed up a small slope. The MG42 machine gun bipod rested on the hill and began to fire wildly. Two other submachine gunners holding MP40s opened fire at the same time to suppress the Japanese firepower.
The MG42 lived up to its reputation as Hitler's chainsaw. As soon as it opened fire, it tore into pieces several Japanese death squads a hundred meters away who were rushing towards the Panzer IV tank with explosives on their backs carrying explosives.
After the firepower team suppressed the Japanese army, Lu Xianping's assault team immediately threw out several M24 long-handled grenades. As soon as the grenades exploded, Lu Xianping jumped out from behind the bunker and rushed towards the Japanese defense line. Within a few steps, Lu Xianping
Seeing a dark-colored figure appear in the crater, he stabbed the bayonet into the opponent's chest without thinking, causing the Japanese soldier on the floor to fall heavily to the ground.
The comrades on the side were not idle either. They used submachine guns and grenades to clear out the Japanese troops within the defense line. The battle was short and rapid. In less than a minute, a detachment of Japanese troops was wiped out, leaving only the one.
The Japanese soldier who had just been stabbed to the ground by Lu Xianping with his bayonet.
"Squad leader!" A superior soldier next to him said to the Japanese soldier who was still groaning in pain on the ground.
"Huang Xiaohu, go and deal with him!"
As soon as Lu Xianping's voice fell, a private hesitated for a moment, but under Lu Xianping's stern gaze, he took a step forward and inserted the bayonet into the wounded soldier's neck.
Gao Hongming gave the order before the war started. They would soon be surrounded by 100,000 Japanese troops. There was no need for the troops to keep prisoners and waste food, time and troops.
Besides, the Japanese army generally would not leave you a chance to take prisoners. Along the way, Lu Xianping and his comrades-in-arms saw many scenes of wounded Japanese soldiers committing suicide with bayonets. In this case, it was better to help them.
This battle caught the Ninth Brigade by surprise. Under the attacks of the New Regiment, the 363rd Regiment of the Seventh Division, and the Armored Battalion and the Second Infantry Battalion of the Liantai Militia, the positions of the Ninth Brigade were continuously captured.
"boom!"
A 60mm mortar shell landed on the flame-belching heavy machine gun position, and a Type 92 heavy machine gun was blown into the sky. The two shooters were instantly disintegrated along with the machine gun.
Not far away, Ikeuchi Zheng shouted: "Baga! Stand up quickly and fight back! Fight back!..."
"Your Majesty Lieutenant Colonel, the Chinese tanks are on the right wing, and our position has been breached!"
"Enemy troops are also found on the left wing!"
Suddenly, the Japanese troops in the third group began to panic and became chaotic.
Ikeuchi Zheng immediately drew out his command knife, waved it toward the sky at a 45-degree angle, pointed at the Chinese soldiers charging head-on and shouted, "Give me Tus!"
