Half an hour later, the Second Company on the east side was attacked more fiercely by the Japanese army. The position was like a clay pot that was almost broken, full of cracks.
The main position of the 160th Battalion was violently attacked by the Japanese army. A squadron of Japanese soldiers crossed the Sitang River through a bridge built.
The rumbling sound of artillery was heard from the forward position, resounding throughout the world. The whole world seemed to be at the end of the world. The defenders at the forward position were only two platoons in strength. It was only the second round of attack. Wherever Xia Yuan looked,
No one could be seen resisting anymore.
"Scholar, Dayong, you go first! The forward position cannot be defended!"
The combat capabilities of the Japanese army are obvious to all. They use artillery to blockade them. They are completely different from the US military. Most of the US soldiers are new recruits and have not been on the battlefield a few times. Every volunteer soldier has experienced hundreds of battles and has invincible belief. Like
The U.S. military could not learn how the Japanese army used artillery shells to block enemies with precise marksmanship.
The only thing they know how to do is to use absolute firepower suppression and firepower superiority to cover the volunteer positions, and then launch a group charge. There are many Yankees, so dozens of deaths are not considered a big casualty.
The Japanese soldiers were small and streamlined, so their firepower requirements were quite sufficient.
After the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese military concluded that 100 cannons that failed to hit were not as good as one cannon that hit 100 times. After that, the Japanese army began to study artillery and sniper rifles. Their gunners were almost able to strike accurately, and their snipers were once
It gave the US military a headache and also reminded the Americans of the importance of snipers in combat.
The forward position could no longer be defended. With no one to share the pressure and attention with them, the Japanese army would soon be able to blockade them with artillery, just like they did at the Fourth Company position.
Almost all the people in the Fourth Company were dead. They sent reinforcements by themselves, but only a dozen guns were still supporting them. The Japanese observers were very sharp. As long as they were not blind, they could tell which ones were good at shooting and which ones were not.
Shooting will allow the gunner behind you to lock onto you, leaving you nowhere to hide.
Almost all the soldiers on the front line of the main position were dead. No matter how accurate Xia Yuan's gun was, he would be blocked by the Japanese artillery just like he was at the fourth company position. The Japanese were smarter than the Americans. During World War II, the United States
People did not participate in the war, but relied on selling arms. However, the Japanese somehow couldn't think of it and insisted on provoking the Yankees. They attacked Pearl Harbor. The United States participated in World War II, and the Japanese fought the Pacific War with the Yankees.
If the Yankees had not joined the war, it is estimated that the victory of the Anti-Japanese War would have been delayed for some time.
The Pacific War basically destroyed the best soldiers of the Yankees. During the Korean War, the quality of individual Yankee soldiers was frighteningly weak. They obviously ate big fish and meat, but fighting alone was not as good as eating fried noodles.
Volunteer holding cooked potatoes.
Perhaps it is precisely because the weapons and equipment of the US military are too luxurious that they rely too much on advanced weapons and equipment, and lose the training of the soldiers' own quality and basic combat training.
On the other hand, if the weapons and equipment of the volunteer army are not good enough, then they should work hard on themselves. Every soldier, two soldiers, or three soldiers, can climb buildings with bare hands, capture and fight.
It is similar to the Japs. To the Chinese, the weapons and equipment of the Japs are already representative of the advanced level, but when compared to the world, they are still far behind.
The Japanese soldiers in the early days of the Japanese invasion of China attached great importance to basic combat and bayonet fighting experience, which was no less than that of the Volunteer Army veterans during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. Many of the veterans of the Volunteer Army even had the shadow of bayonet fighting, and many of them learned from the Japanese.
The Japanese were the first to pay attention to basic combat. They designed the Type 38 rifle to be very long and light, and they also wanted to defeat the enemy in close combat.
The Japanese artillery is also quite powerful, especially the individual grenade. The accuracy of the individual grenade is not high and the cost is expensive. Its only advantage is that it is easy to carry, is not restricted by terrain, and can be used anytime and anywhere.
spread out to form a large-scale attack.
The grenade became popular during World War II. It was played with fire by the Japanese army. Then various countries began to imitate the production, but soon disappeared. This is very strange. The Japanese army used large-scale equipment for the entire Anti-Japanese War.
However, after being equipped by various countries for a period of time, they simply disappeared.
The fundamental reason is that the individual equipment of the grenade is equipped to the squad. Unlike the mortar, which can form an artillery group, most of the people who use the mortar are artillery. The equipment of the grenade is ordinary
Soldiers, it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to master fighting, shooting, and the use of grenades.
During World War II, the rigorously trained Japanese army did this. The Japanese army was militaristic and all citizens were soldiers. Their people began to receive militaristic ideological education from an early age. The toys in school were all firearm models, tank models, and cannon models. In senior grades, they even learned how to
There is live ammunition shooting.
On the other hand, in other countries during World War II, especially in Italy, many people did not have the heart to fight. If they were asked to undergo such rigorous training, no one could do it.
Therefore, only the Japanese can understand grenade launchers.
As for the scholar, I guess the only way to describe him is to be extremely talented.
Some people are born snipers, just like Zhang Sniper of Shangganling, who used a machine-sighted M1944 Mosin Nagant to kill 214 enemies with 436 rounds of bullets in 32 days, creating the Chinese People's Volunteer Army's first victory in the Korean battlefield.
The highest record of cold-blooded enemies.
This achievement is a miracle in any war in the world.
There was also Soviet ace sniper Vasily, who killed a total of 225 soldiers and officers of the Wehrmacht and other Axis powers between November 10 and December 17, 1942 during the Battle of Stalingrad.
Most of these people's talents are innate.
There are also some people who acquire it through exercise.
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! The forward position cannot be held any longer. Xia Yuan can also see it. After the first round of attacks, the Japanese army has already reacted. This sudden increase in casualties is very likely.
It was similar to the casualties caused when attacking the Fourth Company's position a few days ago. As long as the Japanese commander was not a stickman, he would be able to detect the anomalies in the national army's position.
A precarious position can actually cause huge casualties to his soldiers. This is very strange in itself. Whether the national army has heavy firepower, it can only mean that the opponent has a very powerful soldier, a sharpshooter. This soldier makes
The Japanese army was afraid.
Xia Yuan squinted at the Japanese army crossing the river. It was very different from the past. In the past, the Japanese army rushed and fought fiercely, with infantry and artillery coordination. But now, the Japanese artillery had covered the forward position, and they fought for several minutes without stopping.
.
"It seems that the Japanese have confirmed my existence."
In fact, he did have a big problem when he was exposed, but the battlefield is like this. People will not fight more and more, but only less and less. Those who survive are either powerful veterans or lucky people.
The Japanese were not stupid. They first used artillery shells to bombard the Chinese army's positions front and back. This kind of bombing was quite violent, but to Xia Yuan, it was much worse. The caliber of the mortars used by the Japanese army was
Just above the grenade, the power is not great, but it is not great, but it is actually quite powerful.
Xia Yuan had experienced the Korean battlefield. The U.S. military plowed the ground. That was called plowing bombing. Every inch of land had to be plowed. The surface positions of the volunteers were of no use at all. They needed to use the tunnels on the reverse slope to escape.
Some US military heavy artillery can radiate a basketball court, which is terrifyingly powerful.
The attacking Japanese army used large-caliber howitzers with a caliber of 150 mm, but they were not used here. Instead, they were used against the main force of the Chinese army. Only mortars and small-caliber howitzers were used against them.
In Xia Yuan's opinion, the power was average. He had a warning of danger. Even if a mortar exploded next to him, he had already avoided it in advance when the parabola fell. A shell of this level could not attack him.
cause harm.
On the other hand, the muddy water on the ground turned over by Japanese shells was very uncomfortable.
Zheng Dayong and the scholar ran away with their guns. They also realized that the Japanese army was fighting fiercely and they were not as capable as Xia Yuan. If they didn't run away, they would be waiting for death if they stayed here.
Xia Yuan fired randomly. With his shooting skills, he could knock down the Japanese by firing randomly. After shooting again, he quickly changed positions and never fired a second shot at the same position.
There were still people resisting on the front line. Xia Yuan saw a few and got closer. He found that it was not that they did not want to retreat, but that they had chains tied to their feet. The chains were covered in mud and they could not run away. They could only carry a broken gun.
,Fuck the Japanese devils.
"Brother, do you still have bullets?"
Xia Yuan didn't even look at them. Even though he felt sympathy in his heart, it was a battlefield now and he had no tools to save them.
Even if they are saved, if they survive, they will still be chained to the position in the next battle.
When passing by a soldier, the soldier suddenly turned around and shouted.
Xia Yuan glanced at him. His face was covered with mud and his body was thin. He was holding a gun stained with mud. The bolt of the gun was pulled out, and the magazine was empty.
"Also, I can give you some." Xia Yuan had a Japanese bullet clip on his body. He took out ten bullets and handed them to him: "Is that enough?"
"That's enough, that's enough, thank you brother."
The soldier had a smile on his face and showed no fear at all when death really came. Xia Yuan was curious about their stories. Now that the war was coming, he took out a cigarette and threw the remaining matches to the other party:
"Brother, if you are alive, you can come to me."
From this mentality alone, Xia Yuan admired him very much. No one could be truly calm and calm when facing death. Even those volunteer soldiers were furious when facing death and wanted to win glory for the country.
This soldier in front of me is amazing, I hope he can survive.
But everything always backfired, Xia Yuan's mind suddenly became alert, and the hairs all over his body stood up like sharp thorns.
The sense of danger came very quickly, but Xia Yuan reacted even faster. He quickly leaned back, and with a swish, a bullet flew past his cheek. The blood surged. Xia Yuan squatted on the ground, his cheek numb for a while.
What followed was burning pain.
'Sniper!'
His brain was buzzing. He would never think that this was a stray bullet fired randomly by the Japanese army. Obviously, there were very few bullets fired by the Japanese army. He made tactical evasive actions again, and he could barely escape at this moment.
.
Bullets are harder to dodge than artillery shells, especially bullets that cannot see the target. They don’t know which direction they are flying from, and they are aimed directly at your head.
"Be careful!" Xia Yuan squatted on the ground and turned around to shout to the soldier.
The Japanese artillery shells fell on the forward position, and the ground shook slightly, accompanied by a roar. The soldier did not hear Xia Yuan's voice. He was sorting out five of the ten bullets Xia Yuan handed him and stuffing them into the magazine.
A bullet penetrated the dirty steel helmet at a speed that could not be caught by the naked eye, and the soldier fell straight to the ground.
Xia Yuan did not expect that the soldier he was interested in died so suddenly. He could basically judge that the Japanese must have a sniper watching and targeting him. Killing the soldier was completely smooth.
"A sniper, right? If you play sniper with me, I will make you regret coming into this world."
Xia Yuan's eyes were cold, and he was soaking in the mud pit with his gun in hand. The flying mud continued to thicken the yellow mud in the mud pit, and the water under the river beach continued to seep out from the ground.
Xiang squatted in the trench with his gun in hand and waited for a while. He could vaguely hear the shouts of the Japanese. They had rushed to the river beach in front of the forward position. He realized that he had to take action immediately.
In the shrubs on the river beach on the other side, Mitani was soaked by the river water on the ground, and was wet from top to bottom. He was camouflaged with clothes made of leaves and green cloth. The Japanese were studying sniping and had begun to study camouflage in depth.
Through the scope, Sangu aimed at the trench where Xia Yuan disappeared. While searching, he took the opportunity to eliminate the Chinese soldiers who resisted in the forward position. After the artillery bombardment, there were only a few Chinese soldiers left, so he eliminated a few who resisted more fiercely.
After the soldiers arrived, I scanned the national army positions again, but still did not find that special Chinese.
Out of vigilance, Sangu put away his gun and hid behind the reed marsh. He reloaded his bullets and used the reed marsh as cover. He circled around and found a new reed marsh. He crawled carefully until he could see the national army's position clearly.
Position, set up the gun and aim at the national army position in the distance.
"Where are you, cunning Chinese, you were lucky enough to escape once, let me see if you can escape the first time."
Whoosh!
A bullet broke the reed in front of him and plunged into his shoulder.
Sangu was shocked, rolled over quickly, and after pulling out, he covered his blood-stained shoulder with a hint of horror on his face: "Who, he found me, how did he find me, I obviously didn't see him."
The gunfire on the front line was too mottled, and Xia Yuan was using the Japanese Type 38. He was not prepared at all for the gunshot, and the bullet shattered his shoulder.
The stinging pain constantly stimulated his spirit.
Sangu's heart was beating violently. He simply bandaged his shoulder, took a roundabout route with the gun, and chose a new position.
