At the front line of Huangyadong, the Seventh and Eighth Companies of the Headquarters Secret Service were being bombarded continuously by Japanese mortars.
In the early hours of the morning, the Japanese attacked the outpost position of the Seventh Company in a sneak attack. However, they stepped on a landmine and were noticed by the soldiers of the Seventh Company defending the position. Faced with the incoming Japanese soldiers, the soldiers decisively fought back.
Seeing that the sneak attack failed, the Japanese turned to a frontal attack. However, even though the Japanese continued to attack the Seventh Company's positions, they failed to successfully capture the Seventh Company's outpost. In the end, the Japanese saw that they could not capture the Seventh Company's outpost in a short time.
The only option is to give up and continue the attack.
After dawn, the Japanese launched another attack. This time they used heavy artillery and mountain artillery to extend the artillery fire. They also concentrated mortars and continuously attacked the outpost positions of the Seventh Company of the Special Agent Regiment. Considering that they were attacking before
The Japanese had never been able to capture this position, and the Japanese launched another attack after a full hour of mortar bombardment.
The soldiers of the Seventh Company were hiding in the position. Each fortification in Huangyadong was built by Deputy Chief of Staff Zuo Quan after personally surveying the terrain. There were more than 300 fortifications in the entire Huangyadong. When the fortifications were being built,
With great care, it is simply impossible for the Japanese to destroy all these fortifications.
Staying in the fortifications, some soldiers observed the movements of the Japanese. When the Japanese shelling stopped, the soldiers emerged from the defensive fortifications one after another. The soldiers all knew clearly that with the Japanese fighting style, when the shelling stopped, they would
It means they are about to start attacking the position!
Facing the upcoming Japanese attack, the soldiers of the Seventh Company were not nervous at all. They believed in the defenses in front of them.
Although due to limited materials, except for some key points in Huangya Cave, which are made of steel and concrete structures, the general defenses, traffic trenches, and firepower points are all made of gray stone. However, due to the special terrain of Huangya Cave, these defenses have become more
Difficult to capture.
The outpost position defended by the Seventh Company is made of reinforced concrete. It is precisely because of this that it can successfully persist under the constant bombardment of the Japanese. However, even with the reinforced concrete structure, there are still some gaps in the Seventh Company's position.
, but these gaps cannot have much impact on the defensive position.
After the fortifications, the Seventh Company had light and heavy machine gun positions with sufficient cover all around. In addition, the defensive position combined with a circular defense system of traffic trenches, rocks and obstacles allowed the Seventh Company to receive rapid support.
It's just that the area where Huangyadong is located is not small. When the bosses arranged the Huangyadong defensive position, they divided the defense area into seven defense areas for divided defense and coordinated operations, so that the support the Seventh Company could receive was not enough.
That's too much.
The Japs had so many troops. During the attack, they did not just use the area where the Seventh Company was located as a breakthrough point. They also made tentative attacks in other areas, but the area where the Seventh Company was located was the focus of the Japs' attack.
"Damn, the Japs are smart! Fortunately, we were well prepared!" The Seventh Company Commander looked at the Japs who were about to attack and couldn't help but cursed.
The soldiers looked towards the attacking Japs and could see more than 300 Japs chasing the goats they had snatched from the villagers and attacking the positions defended by the Seventh Company. Apparently these Japs had suffered enough from the mines and they
I want to use these goats to detonate the minefield set up by the soldiers of the Seventh Company.
Unfortunately, the soldiers had been prepared for a long time. At the south entrance of Huangya Cave where the Seventh Company was responsible for defense, the soldiers had laid many landmines. However, these landmines were "big stepping mines" and would only explode if people stepped on them.
, when the goat passed through the minefield, only a few scattered mines were detonated.
There are still a large number of mines lying underground in the minefield. When the Japanese attack, they will definitely be able to surprise the Japanese.
"Company commander, these devils are so cunning. They actually found goats to destroy minefields."
"If we hadn't been prepared early, the mines we had worked so hard to lay might have been easily destroyed by the Japanese. At that time, the regiment leader would definitely teach us a lesson." A soldier said.
The seventh company commander laughed, took out the dry cigarette he had rolled, and took a puff. There was no trace of nervousness on his face.
"Just wait. When these Japs find that the minefield has not been destroyed, they will definitely start clearing mines. Let's not be anxious. We can wait until the Japs are close before attacking to save some bullets."
"Get our light machine gun ready. Don't reveal the position of the heavy machine gun at the beginning. I want to give these devils a surprise!" the Seventh Company Commander said with a smile.
The soldiers couldn't help laughing when they saw their company commander being so relaxed, and they no longer had much fear of the Japs. These Japs are very powerful, but what can they do no matter how powerful they are? They have to find a way to get through this thunder.
District, otherwise it would be impossible to seize their base!
Soon, the attacking Japs rushed into the minefield. Shortly after entering the minefield, several mines were detonated, and more than a dozen Japs were killed or injured. The Japs commander forcibly ordered the Japs to charge, but on the way to the Japs' charge, one after another,
A mine was detonated.
When these Japs approached the Seventh Company's defensive position fifty meters away, the Seventh Company Commander took the initiative to open fire with his soldiers. The firepower of the three light machine guns was not much. Even though these Japs were well-trained, casualties continued to occur.
Faced with the strong firepower of the Seventh Company, the Japs chose to retreat. There was no way they could attack the Seventh Company's position, let alone successfully capture the Seventh Company's position! The most helpless thing for the Japs was that they were dealing with the Seventh Company's position.
While soldiers are shooting, they also need to avoid accidentally stepping on landmines.
The landmines caused great trouble to these soldiers, making it impossible for these Japs to devote themselves wholeheartedly to the battle. They were shot head-on and killed by Eighth Route Army soldiers. These Japs could still accept it. But if they accidentally stepped on the landmines, they would be killed.
If the landmine explodes, it will be unacceptable to the attacking Japanese.
After the Japs withdrew, the Japs launched another artillery bombardment, but this time their target was the minefield at the south entrance of Huangyadong. Under the constant bombardment of the Japs, most of the mines placed by the soldiers of the Secret Service on the road at the south entrance were
All were detonated, leaving only a few mines.
"boom"
Suddenly, artillery shells rang out on the Japanese mortar position, successfully killing one of the Japanese mortars. Immediately, the Japanese artillerymen who were shelling stopped their movements and quickly moved with the mortars.
This artillery shell came so suddenly that the Japanese artillerymen could not easily find the location of the Eighth Route Army artillery. Without knowing the enemy's position, these Japanese artillerymen chose to be cautious. They did not want to be killed by the Eighth Route Army artillery.
"Chaozi, you did a good job!" Three hundred meters behind the seventh company position, Wang Chao and several other artillery school instructors launched an artillery attack on the Japanese. Wang Chao was seen controlling a mortar to directly kill one of the Japanese mortars.
Pao, the instructors present could not help but praise him.
Wang Chao laughed, "Let's all spread out. We each have a mortar in our hands. With our skills, I believe we can all achieve something!"
"I hope everyone will remember what Principal Liu taught us, look for opportunities, and move immediately after the bombardment without any hesitation. Although I easily killed a Japanese mortar, the Japanese did not have the slightest defense, otherwise I would
It won’t be so easy.”
"I hope that after this battle is over, we can continue to meet in the artillery school! Take care of yourself!"
Several instructors laughed, and naturally understood what Wang Chao meant. Killing the Japanese was important, but ensuring their lives was still important. But after setting foot on the battlefield, no one knew whether they could still walk away from the battlefield alive.
come out.
"Everyone, take care of yourselves! Stay safe!"
"Take care of yourself!"
"..."
After a simple goodbye, Wang Chao and the others dispersed, each with a soldier behind them. This soldier was responsible for carrying artillery shells to them. It was also because this was an arsenal that Wang Chao and others had enough ammunition in their hands.
Mortars and artillery shells, otherwise it would be impossible for other troops to have a mortar.
Wang Chao led a soldier to look for an opportunity to attack again, but he could see that after being attacked once, the Japanese artillery became extremely cautious, and they all distanced themselves to avoid being attacked by the Eighth Route Army artillery again.
At the same time, when the Japanese artillery bombarded again, a part of the artillery was clearly separated to observe the surrounding movements. With the ability of the Japanese artillery, as long as they could notice the movement of Wang Chao and others when they were shelling, they could easily find where Wang Chao and others were.
position, and then launch an attack quickly.
Commander Ou, who was commanding at the front line, noticed that a Japanese mortar had been directly killed, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion at the excellence of Wang Chao and others. Sure enough, Liu Gen chose to stay in the artillery school as an instructor, and Wang Chao and others
People are very capable, and it seems that their decision was right.
When Wang Chao and others came to report in front of Captain Ou, Captain Ou was a little helpless. He didn't know how to arrange Wang Chao and others. If Wang Chao and others were to join the artillery of the special agent regiment, it would be easy.
There was a lack of tacit cooperation. After all, Wang Chao and others did not train with the artillery of the special agent regiment.
What's more, Captain Ou also knew that in this battle, the artillery owned by the special agent group would not be able to concentrate on bombarding the Japanese. That would easily attract the Japanese's attention and be destroyed by the Japanese artillery.
Captain Ou is very aware of the capabilities of his artillery, and he has paid careful attention to it during daily training. As the leader of the special agent group, Captain Ou has done a very good job. He is very concerned about the combat effectiveness of each unit in the special agent group.
The grasp is crystal clear.
The few first-term graduates from the artillery school are good. With their help, the artillery level of the Secret Service Regiment has been significantly improved. However, compared with the Japanese artillery, there is still a certain gap. The number of artillery is
Incomparable.
Once an artillery battle begins with the Japanese artillery, it is impossible for the artillerymen of the secret service regiment to hold on for too long. They may be killed in a few minutes. This is not because Captain Ou exaggerated the combat effectiveness of the Japanese artillery;
It's so powerful, and the Japanese have too many artillery pieces to put into battle.
The total number of Japanese heavy artillery, mountain artillery, mortars, and infantry artillery is probably dozens. If it were not for the terrain advantages and large number of defenses in the Huangyadong area, Commander Ou would not have known about it.
How to fight this battle!
It is precisely because Captain Ou clearly knows how powerful the Japanese artillery is that he chooses to let Wang Chao and others carry a mortar each to carry out guerrilla operations against the Japanese. Only in this way can Wang Chao and others give full play to their abilities.
Ability.
Commander Ou is also ready to disperse the artillery of the Secret Service Regiment. As long as Wang Chao and others can achieve certain results, then he will definitely let the artillery of the Secret Service Regiment do the same! As long as they can kill as many Japanese as possible, help
If the soldiers reduce the pressure on the enemy, Commander Ou will be willing to do anything.
At the south entrance of Huangya Cave, after the Japanese bombardment stopped, the Japanese troops launched an attack again. Due to the terrain, the Japanese could only attack in squadron units, which greatly reduced the defensive pressure on the soldiers.
If the Japanese troops could all surge forward, even if all the soldiers of the Seventh Company were equipped with heavy machine guns, they would not be able to defend the position at all.
"Comrades! Get ready! The Japanese are coming soon! Get your heavy machine guns ready! Wait until the Japanese rush to 20 meters in front of our position before shooting!"
"Taking advantage of today's good opportunity, our Seventh Company will kill some more Japanese!" the Seventh Company Commander shouted loudly.
The soldiers of the Seventh Company looked serious. They stared at the Japanese who were constantly rushing towards the position, holding their weapons tightly in their hands! More than a hundred people in the Seventh Company stayed in the position, and no sound was heard.
In this case, the soldiers had no idea of talking.
"Fuck you! Fight!" The Seventh Company Commander shouted when he saw the Japanese entering fifty meters in front of the position.
The soldiers who had been prepared for a long time opened fire one after another, shooting at the targets they had observed long ago. Because the special agent group trained the soldiers very well, the soldiers did not panic at all when shooting.
During the battle, the soldiers were extremely calm and took aim briefly before shooting.
Perhaps the shooting accuracy of the soldiers cannot be compared with that of the Japanese, but compared to ordinary troops, the soldiers of the special agent group are already very good.
Facing the continuous shooting of the Seventh Company, the attacking Japanese continued to fall, and at the same time they continued to launch counterattacks. The skilled tactical movements of the Japanese gave them a certain advantage in dealing with the shooting of the soldiers. When the Japanese found a bunker, they attacked
When the soldiers of the Seventh Company in the position counterattacked, the Seventh Company inevitably suffered casualties.
After ten minutes of shooting, the Japanese took advantage of the gap in the Seventh Company's firepower and rushed towards the Seventh Company's position, quickly entering 20 meters in front of the Seventh Company's position.
"Heavy machine gun! Fire! Kill these stupid devils!"
In the well-hidden bunker, the heavy machine gunners who were ready immediately fired at the approaching Japanese soldiers. Bullets flew wildly from the barrel of the heavy machine gun and struck at the approaching Japanese soldiers.
The Japs at the front had just shown their excitement about successfully rushing to the 7th Company position when they heard the sound of heavy machine guns. The Japs could even see a particularly obvious line of fire coming towards them. Suddenly, these Japs had faces on their faces.
The excitement on his face disappeared, leaving only the panic on his face.
Unfortunately, the terror on their faces could not keep these Japs alive. Bullets from the heavy machine guns struck and smashed the bodies of these Japs. They could no longer take a step forward, and the Japs' casualties increased rapidly!
