The quality of the Japanese tank soldiers of the Seventh Army was already good. After experiencing the Battle of Chita, both combat experience and tactical quality have been completely improved. Just one shell accurately hit the ring fifty meters ahead.
At the barricade, the Deshka heavy machine gun that had been spitting out fire fiercely just now went silent.
As soon as the Deshka heavy machine gun fire stopped, the Japanese support fire that had just been suppressed to the point where they could not even lift their heads immediately became active again. Two Type 92 heavy machine guns arrived one after another, plus six crooked light machine guns.
Opening fire, dense bullets rained down on the defensive positions of the fourth battalion in an instant.
Suddenly, the firepower of the fourth battalion was completely suppressed.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Japanese who had been bending down and leaning against the walls on both sides of the street moved forward a little bit and immediately accelerated.
Xu Rui immediately turned his target to the Japs machine gunner. With just one shot, he accurately hit a Japs heavy machine gunner a hundred meters away. There was a hole in the front of the Japs soldier's helmet, and a spurt erupted from the back of his head.
There was a cloud of blood mist, and then the whole person jumped forward and stopped moving. The Type 92 heavy machine gun that had just been spitting out fire immediately stopped.
Zhuoli Getuping held up his binoculars and saw the scene of the Japanese machine gunner being killed. He licked his lower lips and said, "This is the eleventh one. The leader is so awesome!"
"What the hell." Xu Rui curled his lips and pulled the bolt of the gun again. A hot brass shell immediately popped out of the gun chamber and fell onto the ruins. It made a soft ding sound after landing. Xu Rui
Then he pushed the bolt again, and another bullet was immediately pushed into the chamber, and then he quickly aimed at the second Japanese heavy machine gunner.
"Poof!" The Mauser 98K sniper rifle equipped with a silencer made a dull sound, but it was completely obscured by the noisy gunfire and explosions on the battlefield. Except for Xu Rui and Zhuo Ligetu who were close at hand,
Outside, even the officers and soldiers of the fourth battalion less than twenty meters away could not hear it.
Zhuoligetu said excitedly: "Hit, the twelfth one!"
Xu Rui chuckled, and when he pulled the bolt again, he found that the magazine inside was empty.
At that moment, Xu Rui took out another bullet bridge clip from his satchel, pressed it into the barrel of the gun, and with a tap, the bolt was closed. He immediately aimed at the third Japanese heavy machine gunner who had just replaced him.
Xu Rui's priority shooting target was the heavy machine gunners of the Japanese's two heavy machine guns, because compared to the Type 92 heavy machine gun, the threat of crooked weapons was smaller.
"Poof!" After another dull sound, the third Japanese heavy machine gun killed him on the spot.
"Accurate!" Zhuo Ligetu shouted in a low voice. Since the battlefield was noisy, he was not afraid of being heard by the Japanese on the opposite side.
Xu Rui pulled the bolt to eject the shell, pushed another bullet into the barrel, and then locked on the fourth Japanese machine gunner.
In less than a moment, Xu Rui had already shot eight of the Japs' heavy machine gunners in succession, which directly interrupted the shooting of the Japs' two Type 92 heavy machine guns, leaving them completely unable to take advantage of their firepower. At this time, several of the Japs's heavy machine gunners were
The crooked-handled light machine gun also jammed, causing the infantry support fire to temporarily stall.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, several light machine guns on the fourth battalion's defensive position immediately opened fire violently, pouring out dense bullets violently at the Japanese infantry advancing on both sides of the street. Suddenly, they were roaring towards them with bayonets in hand.
The Japanese infantrymen who were charging forward fell to the ground piece by piece. The Japanese infantrymen behind them saw that the situation was not right and quickly fell to the ground.
On the three-story building, Zhuoligetu's count had reached nineteen. Xu Rui turned the Mauser rifle in his hand, locked onto a Japanese machine gunner again, and then gently pulled the trigger.
Xu Rui snorted softly, pressed five more bullets into the barrel, and then raised the Mauser rifle again.
But at this time, the enemy on the opposite side finally discovered Xu Rui. Although Xu Rui was very well concealed, the Mauser 98K sniper rifle he used was equipped with a silencer. Coupled with the noise on the battlefield, the enemy on the opposite side was completely unable to pass through the muzzle of the gun.
Flames and gunshots were used to determine Xu Rui's location, but the Japanese finally found Xu Rui.
The Japanese infantrymen of the Seventh Army were all veterans who had participated in the Battle of Chita. Even though they could not hear the sound of gunfire or see the muzzle flash, they could still roughly judge the hiding position of the sniper based on their experience, and then provide appropriate guidance.
The ballistic directions of the Japanese infantrymen who were killed by snipers can basically identify Xu Rui's hiding place.
Speaking of which, the Japanese only discovered Xu Rui's hiding place at this time, which was already below their standards.
Almost at the same time as Xu Rui fired, a Japanese second lieutenant suddenly raised the saber in his hand, pointing the tip of the knife at Xu Rui's hiding place. The next moment, two Japanese light machine guns with crooked handles, and more than twenty
The Japanese infantrymen's 38 riflemen fired fiercely at Xu Rui's hiding place, and a dense rain of bullets poured out violently in an instant.
Xu Rui rolled forward and reached the middle of the guardrail on the second floor. This was his second sniping position.
The corridor on the second floor of this small western-style building is almost ten meters long, and the cement guardrail on the outside is also ten meters long. It can provide Xu Rui with at least three sniper positions. Xu Rui chose the left position just now. If he were inexperienced, he would be in
When the sniper position on the left is locked by Japanese machine gun fire, the sniper position on the right, which is farther away, will definitely be selected.
But Xu Rui didn't. Instead, he chose the closer middle position.
Sure enough, almost at the same time that Xu Rui straightened up, in addition to the original left side, the guardrail on the right side was also hit by Japanese machine guns. Smoke and dust were scattered everywhere. If Xu Rui had chosen the right side, he would have been hit at this time.
It was straight, but Xu Rui chose the middle position, thus avoiding the Japanese machine gun fire.
It was too late to say that, but soon, Xu Rui knelt and stood up from the second sniper position, then raised his hand and fired a shot. The Type 92 heavy machine gun on the opposite side, which was the most violent, immediately became mute again. Xu Rui continued to fire
The bolt was ejected, the ammunition was loaded, and the gun was raised to fire. The other Japanese machine gunner who had just replaced him was shot dead by Xu Rui again.
At this time, the machine guns on the defensive position fired violently again, suppressing the Japanese machine gun fire. Xu Rui seemed more calm now, selected the next target and pulled the trigger again.
Xu Rui pushed the bullet into the chamber and stood up from his knees again behind the guardrail. Just as he was about to find the next suitable target, he suddenly noticed an object slowly rotating from the corner of his eye. When he turned his head to look, he happened to see the car in front of him.
The turret of the Type 97 medium tank has been turned around, and the 57mm-caliber short-barreled main gun is slowly rising.
"Artu, jump off the building quickly!" Seeing this, the hairs all over Xu Rui's body stood up in an instant.
The next moment, Xu Rui didn't hesitate for a moment. He flipped forward and fell down from behind the guardrail on the second floor. It wasn't until Xu Rui's body passed the guardrail that he shouted the last word "floor". Zhuo Ligetu was stunned for a moment and then
He quickly followed and jumped off the building. Almost as soon as Zhuoligetu's body crossed the guardrail, the muzzle of the Japanese tank in front of him suddenly lit up.
The next moment, a 57mm caliber kinetic energy bullet accurately hit the guardrail on the second floor.
There was just a loud bang, and the guardrail on the second floor was instantly shattered, sending up huge amounts of smoke and dust.
After the kinetic energy bullet penetrated the cement guardrail, it formed a roll. The huge kinetic energy carried by the bullet poured out instantly, forming a huge air wave in an instant. Under the sweep, this relatively sturdy two-story small foreign-style building collapsed.
It collapsed with a crash, and a huge mushroom cloud suddenly bloomed. The scene was like a small nuclear bomb detonating.
Xu Rui reacted quickly. After landing, he rolled forward continuously and avoided the collapsing ruins. He was only hit by a few small pieces of broken bricks. It was not serious. However, Zhuo Ligetu was slower.
After half a beat, before he could even roll forward two meters after landing, the small second-story foreign-style building collapsed, covering him upright.
"Atu!" Xu Rui didn't wait for the smoke to clear before turning back. Using his previous memory, he found Zhuo Ligetu's arm in the smoke and dust, and then suddenly used force to pull him out of the ruins, which was Zhuo Ligetu.
Getu is tall and strong enough. If it had been anyone else, Xu Rui might have pulled him into two pieces.
But even though Zhuoligetu was strong enough, he fainted from the pain after being pulled out by Xu Rui.
Xu Rui called two veterans and ordered them to rush Zhuoligetu to the field hospital in the city.
Looking up again, I saw Ding Li, the commander of the 1st company of the 4th Battalion, striding over. After a while, Ding Li's head and face were covered with dust and smoke, and there was an obvious burn mark on his right cheek. It looked like it should be
Those who were burned by stray bullets. If this stray bullet had been just a little bit more deflected, the words "Ding Li" could have been engraved on the stone tablet.
"Captain!" Ding Li gasped, "The enemy's offensive is too fierce, we can hardly withstand it!"
"I saw it." Xu Rui nodded and said, "If you really can't hold it, then retreat to the second line of defense."
The Japanese offensive was indeed very fierce, but it was mainly because most of the private houses on both sides of the street were still on fire. As a result, the Fourth Battalion’s Rocketeers were unable to maneuver through the private houses. This severely restricted the performance of the Fourth Battalion’s Rocketeers, and at the same time seriously
The lethality of the Japanese tanks was increased, causing the officers and soldiers of the fourth battalion to find no effective means of countering the Japanese tanks.
After guarding for a while, he saw that the Japanese infantry were approaching thirty meters away. At this time, both sides began to throw grenades or hand grenades at each other. Seeing that the casualties of his officers and soldiers were increasing sharply, Ding Li decisively issued an order.
The company retreated to the second barricade in the rear.
By evening, the fire in the block outside Beimen was still not completely extinguished, but the gunfire became sparse. After occupying almost half of the block, the Japanese stopped their attack and began to build barricades on the spot in preparation for counterattacks.
, after a series of previous contests, the Japanese gradually figured out some of the habits of the Chahar Independent Regiment.
