"A heavy machine gun and two light machine guns are staring at a shooting hole. Kill the machine gunner behind the shooting hole!" A sneer flashed across the face of the company commander and he ordered.
"All the riflemen spread out, dug trenches on the spot, dispersed the firepower of the little devils, and forced out the riflemen hiding behind them!
With the advantage of firepower, the machine gunners hiding behind the firing holes were constantly killed and fell to the ground.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army's offensive firepower is too fierce. We only have three machine guns. Even if we are covered by bunkers, we can't withstand it!" A second lieutenant on the wall behind said with a worried face.
Seeing that the squadron leader was silent, the second lieutenant added: "Also, when they dig trenches in front of us, they must be digging through the trenches to get closer to our machine gun bunker, and then blow up our machine gun bunker!"
"Move another team up, suppress their offensive firepower, and then use grenade launchers to kill the Eighth Route Army lying on the ground digging trenches! Prevent them from approaching us by digging trenches!" The frowning squadron leader finally reacted, with a stern face.
commanded.
A machine gun bunker can only be equipped with one machine gun, and the extra troops can only enter the ground position next to the bunker and hide behind sandbag bunkers or in trenches to shoot.
Suddenly so many little Japs appeared on the battlefield, and a sneer flashed across the corner of the company commander's mouth.
"Finally, the Japs were forced out... The riflemen continued to dig trenches and approached the Japs' machine gun bunker by digging through the trenches! Artillery platoon, fire immediately to kill the Japs exposed on the ground!"
The Japanese are hiding behind, so even if you have a mortar in your hand, you can't blow them up. Only by forcing them out can the mortar be effective.
In less than a minute, three shells exploded around the bunker.
Although only one shell hit the target, the company commander still clearly saw that the shell exploded and a bunker made entirely of sandbags was blown to pieces. One of the little devils was actually thrown up high and finally hit the ground, dying.
!
"Just fight like this, the artillery platoon continues to fire, no need to save shells for me!"
"The machine gunner continues to fire, suppressing the firepower of the little devil's machine gun bunker!"
The squadron leader guarding the city wall stared at the battlefield with a frown and a gloomy face. He ordered the artillery to counterattack with almost no hesitation.
The attacking troops had mortars, and he also had them, and the number of them was greater than the number of mortars in the hands of the first company commander. In exchange of fire, the Eighth Route Army was certainly no match.
However, the artillery's counterattack was like a punch hitting cotton, without any effect.
The artillery platoon kept moving the three mortars from its firing position, with no intention of engaging in exchanges with the artillery in his hands.
After moving to the new artillery position, aim at the Japanese infantry exposed in the fried noodles position and fire five rounds rapidly, and then retreat quickly, without giving the Japanese gunners time to counterattack.
After gunshots and explosions continued outside the east gate for nearly twenty minutes, the squadron leader had to face an ending.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army's artillery fire was too fierce. I only saw them firing but not their attack!"
"The team that went up just now has lost more than half. If the stalemate continues, it will definitely be blown up. In just ten minutes, the Eighth Route Army artillery fired fifty or sixty rounds of artillery shells at our position..."
The squadron leader frowned and cursed: "We can't retreat..."
The trenches being dug by the Eighth Route Army have taken shape, and are advancing little by little in the direction of the three bunkers. If they are withdrawn, the three machine guns in the three machine gun bunkers will definitely not be able to withstand the firepower of the Eighth Route Army. By then, the Eighth Route Army trenches will
The excavation speed will become faster and faster, and it won't take long for the three bunkers to be blown up by the Eighth Route Army!
"But if we fight hard like this, we will suffer too much loss!" the second lieutenant reminded with a frown.
At this moment, a new round of artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army artillery platoon began.
A total of fifteen artillery shells hit the position in just half a minute, and the surroundings of the three machine gun bunkers were immediately covered by rising smoke and thick smoke.
Despite this, the squadron leader still clearly saw that five or six of his subordinates were blown over in the shelling just now, and their lives and deaths were unknown!
"The troops exposed on the ground will withdraw immediately... The three machine gun bunkers continue to hold on. No one can take a step back without my order!" The squadron leader, whose face turned gloomier, ordered decisively.
The second lieutenant asked very puzzledly: "Sir, if we only rely on three machine gun bunkers, we will definitely not be able to stop the Eighth Route Army's attack!"
"If you can't stop it, you can't stop it. At worst, I don't want the forward position. Concentrate your troops to defend the city wall. There are more firepower points on the city wall. That's our real line of defense!" the squadron leader frowned and analyzed.
"Sir is wise!" the second lieutenant immediately complimented.
Originally, they planned to consume a large number of their first company commander through the Japs' forward positions. When they saw that the Japs on the surface of the position had retreated, they immediately changed their minds and captured the three machine gun bunkers.
Covered by light and heavy machine guns and mortars, a dozen soldiers holding cluster grenades quickly rushed towards the three bunkers.
The Japs in the bunker also tried their best. They knew very well that once more than a dozen blasters rushed over, they would be torn apart by fright and die without a single body.
Crouch down with the machine gun exposed, go through the shooting hole, and shoot desperately in the direction of the dozen or so demolitions.
However, what made them despair was that, under the cover of thick smoke outside the bunker, and the Eighth Route Army troops in front of the bunker were all lying on the ground and crawling forward, not standing up at all, the bullets they fired had almost no results.
"Bang bang bang...ah..."
Suddenly, a hail of bullets flew toward the shooting hole. Although most of the bullets were blocked by the masonry next to the shooting hole, two bullets still penetrated into the bunker through the shooting hole, and one of the bullets directly penetrated into the chest of the Japanese machine gunner.
.
"idiot……"
The shot machine gunner only had time to say these two words before he fell to the ground and died.
While the machine guns in the bunker were not firing, the crawling soldiers immediately got up and ran forward for more than ten meters, then fell to the ground again and continued crawling!
During the attack, there is constant switching between crawling forward and bending down to charge. This is the most common training at the New Regiment training ground, and every soldier has to run it several times a day.
Now on the battlefield, they realize the importance of this kind of training.
The first company commander was from the Northwest Army. During previous wars, if the troops wanted to capture a Japanese bunker, they could only send out death squads and charge forward risklessly with explosive packs in hand. There were almost no tactical moves.
The result of this was that most of the suicide squads were killed less than halfway through the charge.
As for the rest, only with good luck can you rush outside the bunker.
The usual result was that in order to blow up a Japanese bunker, the troops had to pay at least one platoon of casualties.
The attack method in front of him immediately stunned the first company commander.
I always thought it was just a showy training, but I didn’t expect it to be so useful.
A squad of blasters, after rushing forward forty or fifty meters, only lost three soldiers. This was simply a miracle.
"Machine gun cover...the artillery continues to fire, cover the blasters, and blow up the three bunkers in Gouri!" The company commander who quickly reacted to the shock immediately ordered.
I originally thought that I would have to lose at least three squads to take down the Japanese bunker, but now it seems that one squad is enough. As a company commander, it is impossible for him not to be excited!
