Amidst the intensive machine gun fire, several Red Army soldiers were killed by three machine guns accompanying the Jinsui Army's attack, and fell on the counterattack road.
The remaining Red Army remained unmoved and continued to charge.
Their firepower was no match for the Jinsui Army, and their ammunition was almost running out. Hand-to-hand combat was their only way to defeat the enemy.
Relying on their courage to fight and not fearing death, more than thirty soldiers strangled the enemy together.
Smashing with the butt of a rifle, stabbing with a bayonet, and even punching and kicking, all the skills that can be used to kill people appear on the battlefield.
Even if they were besieged by several enemies, they were not afraid. They rushed towards one of the enemies risklessly and fought for their lives, but they still had to hold on to someone to back them up.
The Red Army soldiers on the battlefield were basically veterans who had been through the Long March and crawled out from among the dead. They had long ignored life and death.
The Shanxi-Sui Army is different. There has been no war in Shanxi for a long time. Many of the soldiers are new recruits. They have been trained but have never been on the battlefield. They have never seen such bloody scenes.
Many soldiers were frightened on the spot, and some were even so frightened that they peed their pants.
The company commander has been in a battle, and in his impression, as the attacking party, as long as he reaches thirty or forty meters in front of the opponent's formation under cover of fire, the enemy will definitely collapse without a fight.
No matter where the scene in front of you appears, first give yourself a round of grenades, and then launch a counterattack without risking your life.
I want to win the battle, but that is based on my own survival.
If you die on the battlefield, no matter how great the victory is, it will have nothing to do with you.
When he saw the Red Army coming up, he killed more than 20 of his subordinates, and some Red Army soldiers detonated grenades before they died, killing the surrounding subordinates together.
He was frightened, and at the same time he realized that even if he could kill the rest of the Red Army if he continued to fight, his own company would be almost dead, and the whole army might be destroyed.
This result was not what he wanted, he frowned and shouted.
"Retreat, everyone retreat immediately!"
At the Second Battalion Headquarters, Battalion Commander Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, but his face remained as ugly as ever.
The attack of the Jinsui Army was repulsed, and the first company was destroyed. Such losses were simply unbearable and unbearable for the Second Battalion, which had insufficient strength.
"Order the first company to withdraw from the position immediately, and the second company to prepare for battle!" Zhang Yuan ordered decisively. He did not want to watch the entire army of the first company be destroyed. Although the first company's defense did not meet his expectations, he still issued a retreat order.
"Batalion Commander, the enemy's attack has begun again!" the instructor next to him suddenly shouted.
Zhang Yuan's nerves became tense again, and he could see the purpose of the Jinsui Army at a glance at the battlefield.
"The enemy wants to use wheel warfare to consume our troops and ammunition. What a cunning opponent?"
"We must not let their conspiracy succeed!"
"Order the Second Company to put the enemy in before we fight..."
"Wait until they reach fifty meters before shooting, and then countercharge. No one can shoot in advance and use it as a target for the enemy!"
"I want to prevent the firepower advantage of the Jinsui Army from being used in the next battle. Then we will carry forward the style of our Red Army that dares to fight and fight hard, and scare the enemy through hand-to-hand combat, so that they will be afraid and dare not attack again!"
The Jinsui Army was in the offensive position, and the battalion commander with the rank of lieutenant colonel was staring at the battlefield with a telescope.
The deputy battalion commander next to him said with a flattering look on his face: "Barracks, the Red Army on the position hasn't fired yet. They must have been driven away by the shelling we just fired!"
The first company commander who had just retired said with envy on his face: "Lao He is so lucky, he just picks up what's ready!"
"I have been fighting hard until there are only a few people left in the Red Army. If we don't retreat, the whole army will be destroyed. They must have run away when the situation was bad!"
Although the lieutenant colonel did not speak, the smile on his face told his two subordinates that his thoughts were the same as theirs.
"Da da da……"
The Second Company had already reached fifty meters in front of the Red Army's blocking position, and when victory was about to be secured, the harsh sound of gunfire reached their ears like a slap in the face.
A row of heads suddenly appeared in the position where there had been no movement just now. A black barrel protruded from the front of each head, and gunpowder was sprayed from the muzzle to shoot at the second company.
"The heavy machine gun platoon will fire immediately to suppress the Red Army's counterattack!" the lieutenant colonel shouted in surprise.
The deputy battalion commander's face changed drastically. He was also frightened and quickly reminded: "Battle base, the second company is too close to the Red Army position, and the heavy machine gun cannot shoot!"
"The Red Army has begun to counterattack. They are going to use the same tactics they used against my company just now, and use hand-to-hand combat to drive us down!" Seeing the Red Army starting to throw grenades, the company commander shouted with lingering fear on his face.
Then he added: "Battalion Commander, you must ask the Second Company to retreat immediately, and retreat while fighting. You must not fight with the Red Army!"
"They are so good at hand-to-hand combat that they are crazy and not afraid of death. Many of our brothers have never been on the battlefield, and they can be frightened by fear. They are no match at all!"
"Order the Second Company to provide machine gun cover and retreat immediately!" The lieutenant colonel was very reluctant and gave the order with a stern face.
Then he shouted with a look of realization: "I understand, the Red Army is no match for us in terms of firepower. Only close combat can avoid our firepower advantage and attack us!"
"Since they are afraid of our firepower superiority, then I will use our firepower superiority to attack them!"
"Order the heavy machine gun platoon to keep an eye on the battlefield for me. As soon as the second company withdraws, they will shoot for me!"
"The mortar platoon is also ready to fire. As long as there is no accidental damage, fire for me and kill those Red Army soldiers!"
The Jinsui Army retreated in time, leaving only more than twenty corpses on the battlefield.
The Second Company was very aggrieved. They originally thought they could kill the enemy, but they didn't expect that they couldn't even catch a single hair from the enemy.
Not to mention, the enemy's mortars suddenly opened fire.
The Second Company, which had not had time to retreat to the trenches, was caught off guard by the explosion and nearly ten corpses were left behind. The company commander was so angry that he cursed his mother.
At the Second Battalion Headquarters, Battalion Commander Zhang Yuan's face looked even uglier than before.
A good hand of cards not only failed to achieve the expected results due to the enemy's quick reaction, but also lost troops and generals. He lost his wife and lost troops, which was not worth the gain.
He analyzed with a stern face: "The commanders of the Jinsui Army are more difficult to deal with than we thought. They can see our tactics at a glance, and then use their superior firepower to counterattack us.
It’s so hateful!”
"This battle will definitely become more and more difficult to fight in the future. Order the Third Company and be ready to reinforce the Second Company at any time!"
Li Hao kept staring at the battlefield without saying a word. After another shell explosion was heard from the battlefield, he suddenly asked Zhang Yuan to fight.
"Battal Commander, let us join the guard class!"
"No!" the battalion commander refused without thinking.
"There are only eleven of you, and it won't work if you go up there!"
Li Hao hesitated and replied: "Batalion Commander, I want to lead people to touch the enemy's heavy machine gun position!"
"I just saw that in order to take advantage of their firepower, three heavy machine guns were deployed on a high ground more than a hundred meters away from their main force. There was only one platoon of guard troops to protect them. I am confident that I will lead the guard squad to go over and kill them!
"
"With three heavy machine guns taken down, I can use three heavy machine guns to shoot down their main force and force them back!"
"Victory by surprise!" A glimmer of hope quickly ignited on Zhang Yuan's solemn face!
