The camp's preparations were relatively adequate, but He Shuya made one mistake.
He Shuya originally thought that the Japanese would adopt a conventional attack method, which was to first launch a feint attack with a small group of troops, first to test the defenders' combat effectiveness, and secondly to figure out the defenders' firepower configuration and troop deployment, and then carry out precise point bombardment, and finally
Only then will troops of squadron size or above be deployed to launch a strong attack.
According to this style of play, He Shuya is confident that he can hold his position for at least three to five days.
However, war is war, and the enemy will never fight according to your plan, let alone revolve around your baton. This time the Japanese were uncharacteristically uncharacteristic and did not use conventional fighting methods. Instead, they invested two weapons as soon as they came up.
The squadron attacked with all its strength, and the 1st company of the battalion was caught off guard, and its position was almost lost on the spot.
The only good thing is that the 1st Company occupied favorable terrain in advance.
This mountaintop platform provided an excellent cover for the 1st Company, preventing the heavy machine gun fire of the 1st Company from being targeted by Japanese artillery and grenade launchers. With three Maxim heavy machine guns and six imitation Czech light machine guns, the
After a successful crossfire, the Japanese attacking troops were finally pinned below the mountain ridge.
After a fierce attack for a long time, until evening, the Japanese were still unable to break through, and instead lost nearly an infantry squadron.
This result made Yuxiang Sanada, the captain of the 1st Infantry Battalion of the 40th Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Army, very angry.
Seeing that the attack of the 3rd and 4th Infantry Squadrons was once again disintegrated. The more than 300 infantrymen who went into the attack only returned less than 200 in the end. The rest either died in battle or were carried back on stretchers. Yusho Sanada
He became a little angry from embarrassment. As soon as he took off his short-sleeved military uniform, he was ready to lead a large force in a desperate charge.
Before starting the attack, Sanada Yusho promised in front of Nishi Ojo, the captain of the 40th Infantry Regiment, that he would capture the hilltop before dark. However, now that the 1st Infantry Regiment has lost nearly half, but the position against the dough is
But he still remained unmoved. What did Yusho Sanada say to Nishi Ojo?
"Bagagaru." Sanada Yusho took off his short-sleeved military uniform, revealing his upper body covered with chest hair. He took out a forehead belt from his trouser pocket and tied it on his forehead. Then he pulled out the saber with his backhand and raised the saber above his head.
However, just before Yusho Sanada was about to order a desperate charge, there was suddenly the sound of chaotic footsteps behind him.
Looking back, I saw Fatty Xi Datiao striding over.
Behind Xi Da Tiao Pang, there was also a camouflaged special forces soldier.
Sanada Yuxiang quickly put his feet back and bowed his head to the west: "Captain!"
"Baga!" Nishidajo Pang couldn't help but said, and slapped Yusho Sanada twice in the face.
"Hai!" Although Yusho Sanada was slapped, he had no complaints in his heart. He himself was not effective in fighting, so how could he blame the captain for slapping him?
After receiving two slaps, Sanada Yusho paused again and said: "Liant Commander, I will concentrate all my forces and launch a general attack on the Chinese Army position opposite. This time, either the Chinese Army will die or the Imperial Army will die. If we cannot capture the Chinese Army position,
, I don’t plan to come back alive even if I’m in a humble position.”
"Baga." Xida Tiao Pang cursed, "The attack plan is canceled immediately."
"Nani?" Sanada Yuxiang said blankly, "Cancel the attack plan?"
Nishida Tiao Pang then turned around and said to a special soldier behind him: "Xiaoluyuan-san, come and tell him."
It turns out that the special soldier following Nishi Ojo Fatty was none other than Junsi Oluhara.
Ogawara Junsi said: "Sanada-san, first of all, I must say sorry to you, because when the reconnaissance team of our special operations brigade penetrated in to conduct battlefield reconnaissance in the morning, the defensive position of the Chinese Army on the opposite side was built on the ridgeline of the mountaintop platform.
, then when your attack was blocked, I sent a reconnaissance team to conduct infiltration reconnaissance, only to find that the Chinese Army’s defensive position had shrunk one hundred meters back from the mountain ridge. It was this error of one hundred meters that blocked your attack.
, so I must say sorry to you."
Sanada Yuxiang quickly shook his head and said: "His Majesty Colonel, you are serious."
Oluhara Junsi added: "As compensation, our special operations brigade will cooperate with your 1st Infantry Battalion to launch an attack. Tonight, I will send several sniper teams to infiltrate first and ambush two defenders in advance.
On the high cliff on the side, when your 1st Battalion starts attacking, my snipers will cooperate with you and shoot the machine gunners of the Chinese Army, and then you can rush up the mountain."
Nishi Ojo asked Yusho Sanada: "Sanada-san, did you hear it clearly?"
"Hai." Yusho Sanada paused and said, "In order to cover the snipers of His Excellency the Colonel, I will send a small team to continuously launch harassment attacks against the Chinese defenders."
"Yo Xi." Nishida Tiao Pang nodded happily and said to Oluhara Junsi, "Oluhara-san, please."
"Nishi Ojo-san, you're welcome." Okahara Junsi waved his hand and said, "This all started because of our special operations brigade, and it should be resolved by us."
Dividing line
That night, the Sanada Battalion dispatched more than a dozen infantry groups in succession and launched more than a dozen harassing attacks on the hilltops guarded by the 1st Company. The officers and soldiers of the 1st Company were disturbed all night. Until dawn the next day, the Sanada Battalion
The harassing attack finally stopped.
The relieved officers and soldiers of the 1st Company did not know that just last night, more than a dozen sniper teams from the Oluhara Brigade had used the cover of the Sanada Brigade to sneak into the mountains and lurk on the cliffs on both sides.
The hilltop where Company 1 is stationed is the only way to enter Damei Mountain from Heifengkou. On the left and right sides of this hilltop, there are cliffs tens of meters high. There are dense jungles on and below the cliffs, and there are snakes and insects everywhere. For ordinary people,
Even for the army, this place is absolutely impassable, but for the special forces, it is just a piece of cake.
After daybreak, Nishi Ojo and Toshikahara Shunsi once again went up to the Sanada Battalion's attack position. Sanada Yusho had already assembled more than 500 remaining Japs from the 1st Infantry Battalion.
"Captain, the 1st Infantry Battalion has been assembled, please give me some guidance." Yusho Sanada paused heavily.
"Yo Xi." Nishidaopang returned the military salute and turned his attention to Xiaolu Yuan Junsi again, "Xiao Luhara-san?"
Oluhara Junsi nodded slightly, then raised the telescope in his hand and pointed it at the cliff on the right side of the mountain pass. After a moment, a light reflected from the cliff, but it was the Japanese sniper ambushing on the cliff who was shooting towards Oluhara Junsi.
Si sent a signal, meaning that he was ready, and Oluhara Junsi turned the field of view of the telescope to another place.
After a while, more than a dozen sniper teams all sent signals back to Oluhara Junsi, and they were all ready.
Oluhara Junsi turned to Nishidaotou Pang and said: "Nishidatiao-san, my snipers are already in place."
"Yo Xi." Xi Datiao nodded happily, then turned around and shouted, "Order, the artillery squadron starts shelling, let them finish shooting the shells for me, and shoot them all!"
The next moment, the artillery squadron of the 40th Infantry Regiment began an artillery bombardment. Rows of high-explosive grenades and sulfur bombs roared towards the hilltop where the 1st Battalion Company was stationed.
Dividing line
Zhang Dake covered his ears with his hands and squatted in the shell-proof hole.
The anti-gun holes are small holes dug in the side walls of the trenches. The smallest ones can only hide one person, and the largest ones can barely squeeze in two or three people. Fortunately, the trenches are long enough, and the anti-gun holes dug in the side walls
There are enough holes to hide all the officers and soldiers, so the Japanese bombardment actually does not pose much of a threat.
Tunnel fortifications are always the only way to resist enemy bombardment!
Ten minutes later, the explosions on the position gradually became sparse.
This means that the bombardment is about to end and the Japanese infantry is about to attack.
At that moment, Zhang Dake got out of the shell-proof hole, took out the mirror box, opened the nose of the machine, then lifted the mirror box in his hand forward, and howled: "The little Japs are coming up, come in quickly
Position, quickly!"
Before he finished speaking, a faint bullet trajectory suddenly passed through Zhang Dake's body.
After the bullet passed, there was a gunshot, and Zhang Dake's chest immediately bloomed with a dazzling blood flower, and then his strong body trembled twice and fell slumped.
"Company Commander?! Company Commander?!" The 1st Platoon Commander rushed over and helped Zhang Dake up. He found that Zhang Dake had been shot in the heart and was speechless. He just raised his right hand with difficulty and pointed to the cliff on the right with his finger.
The correspondent nodded repeatedly and said, "I know the company commander, there are Japanese snipers on the mountain."
Zhang Dake let out a soft sigh, and his raised right hand fell down.
"What a dog!" The 1st platoon leader took off his military cap and slapped it on the ground. Then he picked up Zhang Dake's large mirror box from the ground and pointed it at the Japanese who had just emerged from behind the ridge of the mountain ahead.
Just a long shot, while shouting, "Brothers, beat me, beat me hard, avenge the company commander, avenge"
The next moment, another 65-caliber pointed copper-core bullet roared in and accurately shot through the head of the 1st platoon leader.
A bloody hole as big as a fist immediately appeared on the head of the 1st platoon leader Ban Cun, and then he fell to the ground and died.
Almost at the same time, the nine machine gunners of the 1st company were also shot with precise shots. The machine guns that were spitting out fierce firepower at the Japanese suddenly stopped. Taking advantage of this momentary gap, they had already approached the ridgeline of the mountain.
More than 500 Japanese soldiers immediately swarmed up the hill like a tide, and launched a general attack on the defensive position of the 1st Company with bayonets in hand.
Yusho Sanada, with his chest and abdomen covered in black exposed, rushed to the front with his saber straight out.
The next moment, the nine light and heavy machine guns on the 1st company position fired again, and dense bullets were fired at the charging Japanese queue in an instant. Sanada Yusho, who was rushing at the front, was hit by several bullets in an instant and fell to the ground.
But behind Sanada Yuxiang, more Japanese soldiers stepped on his body and swarmed up. To be continued.
