Shi Changqing gave the order, and the fifty machine gunners who had been waiting impatiently pressed the button hard.
In an instant, a continuous roar of machine guns sounded from the heavy machine gun position. In the next instant, ballistic trajectories penetrated the small bamboo forest, roared into the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, and then, in the air,
A series of blurry tracks invisible to the naked eye were drawn, and finally they fell towards the zigzag trenches dug by the Japanese.
Almost at the moment when Shi Changqing's heavy machine gun position opened fire, the frontline bunker group also opened fire at the same time, spraying a dense rain of bullets on the Japanese trenches. Although he knew that such strafing was useless, Xu Rui still insisted on letting go.
All the machine guns in the bunker group opened fire simultaneously.
I did this for no other reason than to confuse the little devil.
Even if it can only confuse you for just a minute, it’s worth it!
A minute is not a long time, but it is not a short time. Under the barrage coverage of the heavy machine gun position, the number of casualties per minute for the little devil will be a considerable number!

At the Japs' forward observation post.
Konoe Shingen and Sanjo Kyosuke both saw the reaction of the defenders' group of bunkers through their telescopes. When they saw all the bunkers firing violently at the same time, they couldn't help but laugh.
Konoe Shingen smiled and said: "Sanjo-kun, it seems that the commander of China on the opposite side is not stupid. He has judged that the imperial army is about to launch a general attack, so he ordered all the bunkers to open fire."
"It's a pity that it's of no use." Sanjo Kyosuke said calmly, "The machine gun firepower of the Shina bunker can't turn, and it can't penetrate the trench at all, so it can't stop the advance of the imperial army." After a pause, he continued.
Then he said, "So, the Chinese should wait obediently to be broken through by our First Regiment of Guards Infantry."
Konoe Shingen smiled slightly and raised the telescope again.
Sanjo Kyosuke said no more and raised the telescope.

At this moment, in the zigzag trench.
Nobuo Takaji, the captain of the Second Guards Infantry Battalion, stood in the first trench with his saber raised high and kept shouting: "Assault, the whole army assault, the whole army assault..."
Yes, that's right, Nobuo Takaji was standing there without bending his back.
There are two reasons for this. One is because the trenches of the 7th Engineer Regiment are well dug, and the other is that the height of the little devils is generally very short, so there is no need to bend down in the trenches and they can rush straight forward.
The problem is that the width of the trench is sufficient, so the engineers retreating from the front and the infantry coming up from behind can easily pass by each other without being crowded at all, so it appears to be orderly and not chaotic at all.
Although countless bullets were fired indiscriminately above the trenches, the Japanese in the trenches remained unscathed.
Nobuo Takaji originally thought that his entire Second Infantry Brigade, more than 1,100 officers and soldiers, could easily advance to 50 meters away from the defenders' position, and then launch a charge directly from 50 meters away.
, even when they charge, the defenders' bunkers will most likely be destroyed by the death squads.
In other words, the First Infantry Battalion only needs to clean up the remaining troops.
However, the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruel, so cruel that it exceeds the imagination of all Japanese!
Just when Nobuo Takashi was looking forward to the beautiful scenery of breaking into the defenders' position, short screams suddenly sounded in his ears. As a veteran who has experienced many battles, Nobuo Takashi knew what was going on when he heard the screams.
Something's wrong, this sound seems to be the scream of a bullet passing by my ear!
A bullet passed by my ear? How is this possible?!
However, before Nobuo Takaji could finish his thoughts, there were bursts of screams in his ears. He looked quickly and saw the infantrymen who were calmly moving forward in the trench, and the engineers who were calmly retreating.
They actually fell down in rows, and strangely beautiful bloody flowers bloomed from their bodies!
Bloody flowers! Was he hit by a bullet? How could a bullet hit the trench?
"Ahhhhh..." The prisoner's screams echoed when he was shot and fell to the ground.
Nobuo Takaji was completely confused. He couldn't understand what was going on.
Can the machine gun bullets fired from the garrison bunker be able to turn? Can it actually penetrate into the trench? Is this an illusion, or is it magic? Nobuo Takaji was so confused that he forgot to react appropriately.
Like an idiot, he just stood there stupidly, with his mouth wide open, and his breath was almost dripping from his mouth.
Nobuo Takashi was not the only one who was confused. Almost all the Japanese engineers and Japanese infantrymen who had entered the zigzag trench were confused! Because the incident happened so suddenly and unexpectedly, most of them
The little Japs didn’t even realize that the rain of bullets that really threatened them actually came from the sky! And from the front!
However, even if a few Japs discovered that the deadly bullets were coming from the sky, and roared at the top of their lungs, their roars were either completely extinguished by the ensuing rain of bullets, or were drowned out by the screams of their companions before they died.
, so, two full minutes passed, and no Japanese had reacted.
For more than two minutes, all the Japs stood there stupidly, enduring the bloody baptism of bullets!
It wasn't until more than two minutes later that some of the little Japs finally came to their senses, and then quickly made a stress response. Then, more and more Japs reacted and followed suit. However, all the stress reactions were...
It's exactly the same, that is, turning over and lying down, lying on the ground!
If you are on flat ground, lying down can indeed reduce the area to be bombed as much as possible and minimize the threat from machine guns from the front, but unfortunately, these little devils were originally hiding in the trenches, and this life-threatening
The rain of bullets does not come from the front, but from the sky above!
Therefore, even though the Japanese made the most correct stress response, the situation did not change at all!
Countless 7.92mm copper-core bullets, carrying huge kinetic energy and inertia from high altitude, roared down from the sky, and then fell into the enemy's body without any hindrance. Those poor Japanese who were hiding in the trenches
The little devil originally thought he would be safe hiding in the trenches, but in the end he was like a helpless lamb, being slaughtered mercilessly!

At this time, Konoe Shingen and Sanjo Kyousuke, who were staying at the forward observation post, also realized something was wrong.
"Sanjo-kun, something is not right!" Konoe Shingen first noticed something was wrong and frowned and said, "Okay, why is it in chaos? Why is it in chaos? Did something happen?"
Sanjo Kyosuke's brows also frowned.
Annoyingly, the forward observation posts were built on the ground and were not high enough, so they could not clearly see what was happening in the trenches from a high position. They could only roughly judge that something was wrong through some abnormal signs, because according to the time, this
It's time for the death squads to carry out the blast!
However, no death squads broke out of the trenches!
"Konoe-kun, let me go outside and take a look!" Sanjo Kyousuke could no longer hold his breath. After saying that, he turned around and rushed out of the forward observation post, then found a commanding height nearby and climbed up! After reaching the commanding heights
When he looked down and looked ahead, he was immediately dumbfounded. How could this happen? How could this happen?
Konoe Shingen climbed up immediately, and after just one glance, his eyes widened!
Looking around, I could see hundreds of Japanese infantry and engineers struggling and wailing in the trenches. The shrill wailing sound went straight to Yunxiao. Even from thousands of meters away, Konoe Shingen could feel these soldiers.
The pain! Blood! The bright red blood is flowing from these soldiers, almost dyeing the trenches red!
A river of blood! This is really a river of blood, it is really a river of blood!
What's going on? How could this happen? Konoe Shingen was confused for a moment.
It was Sanjo Kyousuke who reacted the fastest. He was stunned for a moment and then quickly realized what was happening. In an instant, every hair on his body stood on end! He already knew what was going on! Damn it, damn it.
, the Chinese actually use heavy machine guns to shoot in a curve from several kilometers away, the Chinese actually know how to use heavy machine guns to shoot in a curve!
Bagagaru! Sanjo Kyosuke cursed and then roared: "Order, retreat, retreat, quickly! Order the second infantry group to withdraw quickly, quickly, quickly!"
Amidst Sanjo Kyosuke's roar, several messengers flew away.
However, Sanjo Kyosuke's heart was still sinking. Only then did he order the retreat. I was afraid it was too late, or it was too late!
(Dividing line)
It's really late, it's really too late!
As soon as the little Jaap made any move, Xu Rui, who was standing at the observation post on the top of the fort, noticed it immediately.
Raising his right wrist to check the time, Xu Ruiguo said contemptuously: "It's a full five minutes later than I expected. It seems that the enemy commander on the opposite side is not very good. Only then did he think of retreating, but it was already too late.
!" After a pause, Xu Rui said to Digua again, "Digua, send the signal again, and the heavy machine gun position will be extended to fire!"
"Yes!" Digua agreed and ran to the side of the mountain to make a semaphore.

A few kilometers away, a heavy machine gun position.
He Pan commandeered a heavy machine gun.
"Kill, kill, kill, you little devil, die to me, die to me, die to me!" He Pan roared, pressing the firing button of the heavy machine gun desperately, firing violently, and a bullet chain fired.
After that, he quickly asked the ammunition hand to change the bullet chain. In the blink of an eye, thousands of bullet casings had piled up into a hill at his feet.
When He Pan was getting excited about fighting, he suddenly heard Shi Changqing's order: Change the calibration elements and carry out extended shooting!
Upon hearing the order, He Pan adjusted the firing angle of the heavy machine gun to another angle without hesitation, then pressed the firing button again and fired violently.
