It is impossible for two shells fired from the same cannon to land at the same point. Although he was heartbroken about the loss just now, the squad leader breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered his subordinates to use this time to repair the fortifications.
"Fire all machine guns, and shoot at crowded areas!" Soon, the company platoon commander's order sounded on the battlefield, and the eight crooked guns equipped by the two companies suddenly opened fire. The Imperial Army was caught off guard.
Dozens of people were knocked down.
However, the officers and Japanese instructors scattered among the Imperial Alliance Army were not affected by the camp.
While urging the Imperial Army to spread out as much as possible, they threatened them to continue rushing forward.
"Counterattack, immediately suppress the Eighth Route Army's machine gun fire!" the heavy machine gun company commander of the Royal Association Army who was supervising the battle behind him immediately ordered when he saw people in the attacking troops falling to the ground one after another.
"Start the Eighth Route Army machine gun and hit it. A heavy machine gun is staring at a crooked handle and hit it hard!" the squad platoon leader squatting behind the machine gunner immediately ordered.
"Click, click, click!" More than a dozen heavy machine guns fired at the same time. There was no way that Crooked Man could be his opponent. In the blink of an eye, all the machine guns on the defense line were silenced, and most of the machine gunners were also lost.
"Stretcher team, carry the wounded and fallen soldiers down immediately. Assistant gunners, remember to move positions. Use all our reserve machine gun positions!" Seeing that the machine gunners were only focused on shooting, and even forgot the basic common sense of shifting positions.
Company Commander Yang Xiong suddenly became anxious and shouted with a frown.
"Da da da!" Soon, the machine guns on the defense line rang again.
The Royal Association Army continued to charge forward, and there were casualties again. Some people were continuously hit by machine gun bullets, and then fell down on the charging road.
"Counterattack, quick, the positions of the Eighth Route Army's machine guns have changed. Keep an eye on them and shoot!" The squad platoon leader squatting behind the machine gunner at the Imperial Association Army's heavy machine gun position immediately lined up on the machine gunner's shoulder and ordered.
"Click, click, click!" There was a dull machine gun fire, and as soon as the whizzing bullets flew towards these machine gun positions, several crooked handles suddenly misfired.
But this time it was not the machine gunner who was killed, but each crooked gun fired a string of bullets and then actively moved the machine gun position.
Although two machine gunners were caught off guard and killed, the casualties were much smaller than the casualties just now.
Company Commander Yang Xiong breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed: "Yes, let's fight like this. You can't fire for more than five seconds from a machine gun position, and you can't fire for more than three seconds against the Japanese. You must move the machine gun position!"
"The small artillery squad, fire back immediately! The Imperial Alliance Army's heavy machine guns are inconvenient to move. Keep an eye on them and hit them with heavy machine guns. We can't let them continue to be so arrogant and suppress us to fight!"
The three grenade launchers opened fire immediately.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Three explosions were heard behind Yang Xiong's ears. A heavy machine gun that was shouting happily was blown over, and five or six machine gunners were killed and injured.
Because Wang Ping set the artillery very strictly, the rules were formed from the beginning.
The grenades cannot fire more than two grenades at the same point, and the mortars cannot fire at one point for more than half a minute...
Therefore, as soon as the three grenades were fired, several gunners moved to the side holding the grenades.
Although the Imperial Army was not equipped with grenades, it had more than ten mortars.
Not long after the three grenade launchers were moved, six artillery shells hit them.
In the violent explosion, the position where the three grenade launchers were stationed was directly covered by artillery fire.
Yang Xiong, who witnessed all this, was very satisfied with the quick response of the small artillery squad: "Tell the third squad to explode like this, as long as the Japanese heavy machine guns are not allowed to continue to be so arrogant! Rifleman, all fire, freely shoot the enemy, be sure to block it
them."
"Everyone shoots, aim and shoot, fire one shot at a time and change positions!" the squad and platoon leaders scattered on the position immediately ordered.
The veteran reacted the fastest. While all the heavy machine guns of the Imperial Army were staring at the crooked handle, he immediately emerged from the trench, raised his gun and fired a bullet in the direction of the Imperial Army.
The recruit's reaction speed is slower and hesitantly shoots a bullet.
But they didn't expect that hesitation on the battlefield could cost them their lives at any time.
After shooting, several recruits were hit by bullets swept by the Imperial Army because they were too slow to hide, and fell down in the trenches.
Those who were less lucky just died. Those who were more lucky just had a look of pain on their faces, and then let out bursts of screams.
Of course, their shooting was still very effective. More than two hundred bullets flew in one round. No matter how inaccurate the bullets were, the blind cat killed the mouse and killed more than a dozen people.
"The riflemen of the Eighth Route Army also opened fire. The heavy machine gun company of the first company suppressed and killed their riflemen. The second company continued to stare at the machine guns and fire!" On the heavy machine gun position of the Royal Association Army, an officer frowned and shouted.
The attacking Imperial Army had already lost more than a hundred people.
Many people had panic expressions on their faces and wanted to stop.
"Don't stop on the Bagh Ya Road. Keep going forward, or you will die!" The Japanese officer who was mixed in the team shouted loudly as soon as he noticed this sign.
"Continue to attack, the machine gunners cover and fire! The riflemen also shoot, if you have the chance, shoot!" the officer in the middle of the team shouted.
Bullets from both sides came and went, whizzing towards the opponent.
"Quick, stand up and shoot, don't be afraid!" At the company position, the veteran saw the opportunity and fired a bullet, then shouted to the recruits who were already shivering with fear.
"Boom! Be careful!" As soon as he finished speaking, a cannonball hit him.
As soon as the veteran's expression changed, he subconsciously knocked down the frightened recruits around him, and then a violent explosion rang in their ears.
"Squad leader, squad leader, wake up!" The veteran squad leader who was shot in the back was knocked unconscious in an instant, and the recruits also reacted from the shock and shouted loudly.
"Squad Leader Wang is injured. The stretcher team will carry him down quickly for treatment. Now that I am acting as the squad leader, all listen to my command and immediately fight back to avenge Squad Leader Wang!" The deputy squad leader stood up and ordered loudly.
The recruit, who was trembling with fear just now, tightened his grip on the hand holding the rifle after hearing the word revenge.
He gritted his teeth and shouted: "You damn traitors, I'm going to kill you all and take revenge!"
After saying that, he emerged from the trench and fired at the approaching Imperial Army.
After a bullet was fired, he was so angry that he didn't know how to hide. He stayed where he was, loaded the bullet, and continued shooting.
"You're crazy!" At this moment, the deputy squad leader rushed over, threw the recruit into the trench, and then cursed loudly.
Immediately afterwards, a string of bullets whizzed past their heads.
Thinking of the thrilling scene just now, the deputy squad leader's anger rose up, and then he cursed loudly: "You can't die if you want to take revenge. How can you avenge Squad Leader Wang if you die? He was injured while protecting you. Remember, save your life."
Only by killing two enemies can we attack the enemy. If you don't kill two enemies today, you will be sorry for the squad leader who saved your life!"
