Eight hundred and fortieth chapters perish together
"Didn't the battalion headquarters reinforce two light machine guns for us? There are six light machine guns in the whole company, two on the front, and two on each of the left and right wings. The ones on the front will fire first, and the ones on the wings will wait for my order before firing..."
The fourth company commander frowned and began to give orders.
"The first platoon defends the front, the second platoon defends the left wing, the third platoon defends the right wing, the guard squad, and the small artillery squad provide fire support to the three platoons at any time."
"In this counterattack, each rifleman left only two grenades and threw them all out to me to greet the little Japs who attacked us!"
On the high ground, the two light machine guns of the fourth company were overwhelmed by the firepower of three Japanese heavy machine guns as soon as they fired. They instantly misfired. More than fifty Japanese soldiers, under the cover of light machine guns and grenade launchers, quickly rushed towards the high ground.
This time, all the Japs were bent over, holding guns in hand, and very vigilant about attacking forward, even though they were getting closer and closer to their positions on the high ground.
After they entered the killing range of grenades and grenades, the fourth company commander decisively ordered: "Start counterattack, throw all the grenades and grenades out for me!"
"The second and third platoons also started to fight back!"
"Da da da... boom boom boom..."
When the sound of intensive machine gun fire and violent grenade explosions reached Miyamoto's ears again.
Miyamoto's solemn face immediately turned pale, and then he exclaimed subconsciously: "Bagh Yalu, you were fooled. The shelling just now was of no use at all. The Eighth Route Army on the position is still fine..."
Then he quickly reacted: "Quick, send the signal, all attacking troops will withdraw immediately, heavy machine guns cover..."
The adjutant shook his head and replied: "Sir, it's too late! The Eighth Route Army's grenades and hand grenades were thrown at them for free. Letting them stand up and retreat now is tantamount to death!"
"Bageya Road, I am the squadron leader. Retreat as soon as I tell you to. Follow the order!" Major Miyamoto ordered hurriedly.
"Lying down there will lead to death. If we retreat now, maybe we can get a few people back!"
Then he stared at the adjutant and continued to order: "Artillery team, fire immediately, fire at the Eighth Route Army position in the highlands. They are all hiding in the position, and firing now will definitely kill many of them!"
The adjutant quickly reminded: "Sir, the artillery is out of shells. The artillery fire just now prepared them to shoot out all the shells!"
In the end, of the more than 150 Japanese soldiers who went to the battlefield, less than 30 escaped, and all the remaining ones fell on the high ground. Corpses in yellow military uniforms were spread on the ground in layers, which looked particularly scary.
At this time, the main force led by Major General Kawaguchi came over.
"Bagya Road, Miyamoto-kun, are you a stupid pig? A reinforced squadron can't even take down the forward position of the Eighth Route Army, and it loses troops and generals. What do I want you to do!" Facing the new regiment and what he had prepared,
After receiving a warning, Major General Kawaguchi could only vent his anger on his subordinates.
Major Miyamoto did not dare to neglect, and immediately introduced the battle process just now, and then stared at Major General Kawaguchi and explained: "General, these Eighth Route Army are really too cunning and well-equipped. Just now, in order to deal with a squadron of mine,
, the Eighth Route Army on the high ground used at least a thousand grenades and hand grenades, which was simply richer than the Jinsui Army we encountered before, and not at all like the Eighth Route Army I imagined!"
Major General Kawaguchi also frowned, and the chief of staff next to him immediately explained: "General, the new regiment is indeed different from other Eighth Route Army units!"
"They are not only cunning, but also well-equipped. Before you came, he once intercepted one of our military columns loaded with equipment and ammunition. Although we fought desperately for these equipment and ammunition, and even sent out bombers to blow it up, these equipment and ammunition
In the end, it fell into the hands of the new group!"
"Bagya Road~" Major General Kawaguchi showed an expression of relief on his face and cursed helplessly.
Then he raised his telescope and stared at the high ground a few hundred meters away.
Soon, a sneer appeared on the corner of Major General Kawaguchi's mouth: "Deploy two mortar squadrons, aim at the Eighth Route Army positions in the highlands, and be ready to fire at any time!"
"Immediately dispatch a company from the Imperial Army and let them carry out the main attack this time!"
"Take out another infantry squadron and follow the Imperial Army 50 meters behind to launch an attack!"
"Once the Imperial Army in front was attacked by grenades and grenades, the artillery immediately opened fire and covered the entire high ground with artillery shells. After the five-minute artillery attack, the infantry squadron immediately rushed up, occupied the high ground, and eliminated the remaining Eighth Route Army troops on the high ground.
!”
"What a cruel method..." This was the first thought that came to the chief of staff's mind.
The Eighth Route Army on the top of the mountain must have a way to avoid the artillery fire, but there is no way to avoid it in the battle. Major General Kawaguchi directly used a company of the Imperial Association Army as bait to attract the Eighth Route Army, and then quickly opened fire, and the Eighth Route Army and the Imperial Association Army attacked together.
, at the cost of one company of the Imperial Association Army, kill the Eighth Route Army on the high ground!"
At this time, the chief of staff had already begun to feel sad for the Imperial Army who were accompanying the offensive. When they encountered such officers who did not regard them as human beings, they could only blame them for their own misfortune.
"Company Commander, the Japs have started to attack again. This time they sent puppet soldiers in front to block the bullets, and the Japs followed fifty meters behind. How should we fight this battle!" Major General Kawaguchi even skipped artillery preparations and gave the order directly.
Troops attack.
In his opinion, if he fights like this, he will definitely win, and there is no need to waste cannonballs in a battle that is sure to win.
"The Japanese are too cunning. They are obviously letting the puppet troops consume our grenades, and then they rush up to eat the ready-made grenades!" Ma Dongyun, the fourth company commander, frowned and analyzed.
There is no doubt that Ma Dongyun did not want to drop the remaining grenades on these puppet soldiers.
The instructor consoled him: "Company Commander, if it doesn't work, we will follow the plan you just made and attack the puppet troops directly. The puppet troops are also enemies. If you eliminate one of them, we will have less pressure. If we fight, we will retreat and we will not give up to those behind us."
Opportunity for the Japanese to attack us!"
At this moment, the correspondent guarding a telephone in the back suddenly shouted: "Company commander, regimental headquarters phone number!"
"The regiment leader must have given us a call!" Ma Dongyun shouted with his eyes shining, and then he rushed along the traffic ditch to the telephone...
"Brothers, speed up. There are Taijuns watching behind us. These Taijuns are not easy to serve. If you slow down a little, they will attack us with bullets and bayonets. For the sake of your own lives, rush forward!" scattered among the puppet attacking troops.
The squad platoon leader in the middle kept urging his men to approach the high ground.
In fact, they are more nervous and scared than anyone else.
As an officer at the lowest level, he still has basic military knowledge.
More than a hundred Japanese corpses were piled on top of each other on the slope in front. The Eighth Route Army position could not be taken down even with so many dead Japs. If they were allowed to take it now, it would be impossible to take it down.
However, the Japanese still sent them to the battlefield, and also sent a squadron to follow behind to supervise the battle. There was only one possibility. The Japanese were using them as cannon fodder.
The little Japs supervising the battle at the back were the real offensive troops. As for them, although they didn't know what the Japs had in mind, they certainly couldn't escape the fate of cannon fodder.
As they got closer and closer to the high ground, and the corpses of Japanese soldiers appeared at their feet, this idea finally spread among the crowd.
Only a fool would go forward knowing that continuing to advance would lead to death. The puppet soldier holding a rifle in his hand was obviously not a fool.
The attack speed immediately slowed down, and some puppet soldiers even lay on the ground and refused to move.
"Bageya Road, continue the attack, or we will all be shot!" The four little devils following in the middle of the team threatened them directly.
When he saw that the puppet soldiers were still motionless, he stabbed them with a rifle with a bayonet, killing four puppet soldiers on the spot.
The remaining puppet soldiers were afraid and quickly got up and continued to move forward. Everyone had a look of genuine fear on their faces!
