In the forward position, the Second Battalion and the First Company were fighting with the Japanese in the streets.
First company commander Lin Wei even went to the front line to command operations.
"Er Niu, kill the heavy machine gun on the opposite side!"
"Beautiful, Erniu, your marksmanship has improved again."
"No, bazooka! Watch out for the little devil's bazooka!"
"Er Niu? Don't fucking pretend to be dead with me, hygienist? Hygienist!"
"Big Bear, have you seen the small western-style building in front of you? The third window on the right side of the second floor, the Japanese rocket launcher who killed Er Niu is hiding behind the window. Use your heavy machine gun to kill him!"
"Beautiful, Big Bear did a great job, move quickly."
"Zhu Zhu, there are two Japs coming in the alley on the right. Go and kill them."
"Bazooka team, hurry up, there's another Japanese tank coming from ahead!"
"Holy shit, those little Japs came from the tunnel. Grenade, hurry up and throw the grenade at the entrance of the tunnel. I'll blow them up for you. If you can't kill them, I'll bury them alive!"
"There are Japanese snipers on the roof of the building opposite, please don't show your heads!"
Lin Wei was directing vigorously, when a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded behind him. It seemed that several people were coming up quickly along the wooden stairs. Lin Wei's heart sank, and he immediately signed in sign language at the veterans around him.
The veteran immediately turned the muzzle of the rifle in his hand and aimed it at the stairs.
However, a familiar voice soon came from the stairs: "Linzi, it's me."
Lin Wei immediately breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and walked towards the stairs and said loudly: "Batalion Commander, why are you here?"
When I walked up to the stairs, I saw that not only the battalion commander was here, but also the regiment commander and captain Leng. Lin Wei was stunned and said: "Commander, why are you all here? It's dangerous here."
"It's like we haven't fought before." Xu Rui snorted, and then said, "When I started fighting, you didn't know where to wear crotchless pants and play in the mud."
Lin Wei couldn't help but roll his eyes, you seem to be a few years older than me, right?
However, Lin Wei did not dare to say these words after all, was he feeling uncomfortable?
Xu Rui said again: "Company Commander Lin, tell me, what is the situation now?"
Lin Wei immediately showed a look of shame on his face and whispered: "The Japanese have figured out the secret of our tunnel, so every time they capture a private house, the first thing they do is to find the entrance to the tunnel and destroy it, so now
We can no longer infiltrate through tunnels, so we can only fight house-to-house and street-to-street with the Japs. Since the Japs’ support firepower far exceeds ours, we have lost three cross streets.”
Losing three cross streets means losing three blocks.
This shrinkage is within Xu Rui's tolerance.
What's more, just because the Japanese occupied three blocks does not mean that they will be able to stabilize the front, because after nightfall, the Second Battalion will definitely launch a counterattack, and it is not impossible to recapture the blocks that were lost during the day.
At this moment, Xu Rui walked to the window again and watched the battle on the street ahead through the window. The battle was very fierce. About a squad of Japanese infantry were advancing little by little along the alley. A combat team from the first company was blocking the front.
, this is only what can be seen. In the private houses on both sides of the alley, in invisible places, there are officers and soldiers from both sides fighting to the death.
Just as Xu Rui was observing the situation on the battlefield, a violent explosion suddenly occurred in a private house not far ahead. Then two figures covered in blood hugged each other and fell down from the second floor where a large hole was blown.
, they were still biting after landing, and one of them bit off the throat of the other.
The one whose throat was bitten soon stopped moving.
Then, a gunshot rang out, and another figure jumped forward and stopped moving.
Until the end, Xu Rui couldn't tell clearly which of the two men was his soldier? Because the two men's faces were either blood or smoke, and it was completely unclear. However, the one who shot just now was a Japs, because there were only Japs.
They would shoot without distinguishing between friend and foe, and they would even kill their own people.
At that moment, Xu Rui took over the Mosin-Nagant rifle from a veteran and killed the Japanese sniper hiding on the roof of a private house two hundred meters away with just one shot. Immediately afterwards, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng opened fire again.
, and kill all the Japanese infantry advancing along the alley.
A sniper worthy of being a Wolf Fang, he destroyed the Japanese offensive in the blink of an eye.
However, Lin Wei didn't lie. The infantry support firepower of the Japs was really brutal. When they discovered that there were several powerful snipers here, the Japs infantry on the opposite side immediately called for rocket launchers. As soon as they saw several bazooka teams at the same time.
Appearing on both sides of the alley, Xu Rui immediately ordered evacuation.
Because the Japs' rocket launchers can hide behind the wall holes and fire, but their rifle bullets cannot turn and cannot hit the Japs rocket launchers behind the wall holes, so even if they are wolf fangs, they can only do it in despair at this time.
To evacuate, Xu Rui would not be so arrogant as to think that his body could withstand the bombardment of rockets.
As soon as Xu Rui and the others evacuated, two rockets hit them at the same time. With only two booms, half of the three-story western-style building they were hiding in was blown up. If they had been slower, they would not have been killed.
They will also be buried alive.
However, Xu Rui also became interested. After evacuating the small building, he immediately signed to Leng Tiefeng. Leng Tiefeng responded with a gesture of understanding, and then the two of them, carrying Mosin Nagant rifles, ducked into the alley.
He Shuya and Lin Wei opened their mouths to stop them, but when the words reached their lips, they swallowed them back.
Because they know that they can't stop Xu Rui at all.
They can't stop it, but someone can.
At that moment, He Shuya sent someone to find the political commissar Wang Husheng.
More than an hour later, Wang Husheng arrived panting with guard Tian Yan, and quickly asked Tian Yan, who was also from Langya, to go to the battlefield to find Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng. When they heard that Wang Husheng had arrived, Xu Rui
He and Leng Tiefeng had no choice but to give up, but at this time, due to the participation of the two Langya ace snipers, the Japanese on the opposite side had already suffered heavy losses.
Even by conservative estimates, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng killed at least more than a hundred Japanese soldiers in just over an hour.
Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng followed Wang Husheng obediently. However, when Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng returned to the regiment headquarters, they sent out all three sniper squadrons of Langya Brigade. Xu Rui did not want Langya to participate in a large-scale position battle.
, but there is no problem in participating in street fighting, because the advantages of the Langya team members in street fighting are too obvious.
…
Due to the participation of the Wolf Fang snipers, the casualties of the Japs suddenly increased sharply.
After a day of fierce fighting, when the troops retreated in the evening, the Japanese actually lost three more infantry brigades. The only good thing is that the tank losses in the subsequent attacks were not many, but this was not because the Japanese tanks suddenly became more durable.
, and it was entirely because in the subsequent attack, the Japanese tanks did not participate much.
The Seventh Army Staff Headquarters quickly tallied up today's casualty figures.
"Your Excellency, Commander, a total of six infantry brigades were lost today!" Junzaburo Koizumi said solemnly.
With the approval of the base camp, Junzaburo Koizumi has just been officially promoted to the deputy chief of staff of the Seventh Army.
"Baga! How could the casualties be so huge?!" Ishihara Wan'er's facial muscles twitched violently when he heard this.
This figure really shocked the old devil Ishihara Kanji. If six infantry brigades were lost in one day, wouldn't one division be lost in two days? The Seventh Army only had seven divisions in total. Even if the First Division was lost,
Counting all of them, there are only eight. How many days can it last? Half a month?
Yano Otonzaburo said: "Due to an ambush in the first attack, we lost three infantry brigades and one and a half tank squadrons in a short period of time. However, we had already taken precautions in the subsequent attacks, so why were the losses still so high? Same thing.
They are both Xu Rui's troops, is there such a big difference between Tieling's troops and Fengtian's troops?"
In the battle at Tieling, the Second Division clearly had the upper hand in the confrontation with the defenders.
Even before adopting Junzaburo Koizumi's tactics, he still had the upper hand.
But when they arrived at Fengtian, they were still the Second Division, but in the battle with the defenders, they were obviously at a disadvantage. This cannot be justified in any case.
Junzaburo Koizumi said: "Because the defenders have a group of snipers with extremely accurate marksmanship and are very agile behind them, the support firepower of the imperial army is powerless in the face of them, whether it is rocket launchers, grenade launchers or combat anti-aircraft guns,
We couldn't even pursue their exact location, so we seemed very passive."
After a pause, Junzaburo Koizumi added: "In the Battle of Tieling, the defenders did not have such snipers."
Yano Otonzaburo then turned to Ishihara Wanji and said: "Your Excellency, Commander, that must be the sniper of Langya. If it is really the sniper of Langya, our snipers may not be able to deal with them. Otherwise, we must quickly kill them."
All the snipers from the Inoue Brigade should also be transferred to Fengtian, otherwise the imperial army will suffer a big loss!"
Ishihara pondered for a moment and then shook his head and said: "No, the Inoue Brigade will be transferred here. There is an oil depot at the Harbin airport. Who can guarantee safety? What if this is Xu Rui's plan to transfer the Inoue Brigade from Harbin through street fighting?
Leave, and then he sends out the Wolf Fang to attack Harbin, and it will be too late to cry by then."
Ishihara Wanji's mind is still very clear. He knows that the greatest advantage of the Seventh Army is the aviation. Don't look at the fact that the Chahar Independent Regiment can only be beaten passively and only dares to hide in Fengtian City and dare not come out. That's because their Seventh Army
The army has a powerful aviation group. If there is no aviation group, once Xu Rui's troops gain air superiority, the opponent's tank troops will immediately lead the infantry group to launch a large-scale counterattack. At that time, the Seventh Army will be in big trouble.
Therefore, there cannot be any mistakes in Harbin’s airport and fuel depot.
"Hai!" Yano Otonzaburo said after a pause, "Then we can only use that strategy."
"Okay, then let's use that strategy." Ishihara Wan'er nodded and said ferociously, "Are the Langya snipers' marksmanship very accurate? Let's see, how dare they face their compatriots?
