When Company Commander Zhong saw Li Hu and his group of twenty or so people crawling out of their position, he could no longer say anything to stop him. This is called a man of skill and courage, but he did not wait for Little Japan to launch another attack.
He took the initiative.
He already knew that this group of volunteers was going to destroy the Japanese infantry artillery. If they could really blow up these Japanese artillery pieces, it would be a great merit for the three regiments.
You must know that the biggest threat to the 3rd Regiment's defense line is not the Japanese large-caliber naval guns that fire from time to time, but these extremely accurate 92 infantry guns.
Although the large-caliber naval guns of the Japanese army are powerful, due to the distance being too far, the shooting accuracy will naturally not be too high. They are area-killing. As long as the anti-gunners are prepared in advance, the actual casualties caused will not be large.
What's more, the positions of the enemy and ours are now relatively close to each other. The Japanese rarely directly bombard the forward positions with naval guns for fear of accidental damage. They mainly shell the deep positions of our army.
The 92nd Infantry Artillery is different. They directly accompany the Japanese infantry. They can basically hit wherever they are within a thousand meters. The accuracy is very high. Once our army's defensive firepower is exposed, as long as the transfer is slow, the follow-up
What we will face may be catastrophe.
Just when Li Hu and the others were shooting, they were still suppressed by the Japanese 92 Infantry Artillery. Li Hu was also considered a chicken thief. He had taken precautions early. After firing a magazine, he ordered to change positions. In this way, there were two
The soldiers who moved slower were injured by shrapnel, but fortunately they were all minor injuries.
During this time, Company Commander Zhong and the others had suffered enough from the Japanese 92 Infantry Artillery. Now that they heard that Li Hu was going to blow up the artillery, they were naturally happy to see it happen.
Zhao Da is not tall, he is of medium height and has a stocky build. He was the first to be selected by Xu Dacheng to join the artillery team. As the saying goes, what kind of people lead what kind of soldiers? Naturally, he was infected with Xu Dacheng's habit of showing off and being arrogant.
.According to what Zhou Wen usually teases them about, these six people in the artillery team of the mercenary regiment are all a group of big-hearted and thick-skinned bullies.
It is said that this type of person must be willing to actively participate in the first wave of attacks. So why didn't he fire when the Japanese army attacked for the first time?
In fact, it has something to do with his personality. Either he doesn't do it, or he does it in a big way.
Zhao Da actually had his eye on the Japanese 92 Infantry Cannon from the very beginning. Now that the Japanese tactics and weapon configurations were familiar to them, he naturally knew that the current Japanese brigade must be equipped with two infantry cannons, and he also knew that now
The only thing that can threaten their two mortars is the Japanese infantry artillery. As long as these two infantry cannons are knocked out, their two mortars can do whatever they want in the rest of the battle.
There are two ways to knock out the Japanese artillery. One is to use light bullets with a range of 2.8 kilometers, and the other is to use heavy bullets with a range of 1.2 kilometers.
It is very safe to use light shells. You can bombard your own position, but it is not very powerful. If the enemy is not destroyed after several rounds of strikes and the enemy's artillery is alerted to move their positions, it will be difficult to fight later.
The heavy bomb is powerful enough. As long as the impact radius of 50 meters is not too outrageous, the probability of destroying the enemy's artillery is very high. However, the theoretical range of 1.2 kilometers for heavy bombs is the ultimate range. For Zhao Da, the distance should be controlled within 900 meters.
The certainty is even greater. His purpose is to completely destroy the Japanese artillery in one go without leaving any further trouble.
The previous shooting of the Japanese infantry artillery had allowed him to basically determine the direction and distance of the Japanese artillery position. Now the two slap cannons have to move 100 meters in front of our forward position, which requires the cover of Li Hu's rifles and machine guns.
So Li Hu immediately agreed to Zhao Da's plan, and immediately decided to lead 9 infantrymen including Mu Qinghe (two wounded soldiers stayed behind), plus a machine gun from Liu Hei, to cover the artillery squad led by Zhao Da
Cannon forward.
In this way, more than 20 people took advantage of the smoke-filled environment of the battlefield to slowly climb out of their positions and move towards the front...
Li Hu led the infantry to crawl forward slowly, mentally assessing the distance. If the artillery had to move forward 100 meters, then the infantry serving as cover would have to move forward at least 200 meters.
Far ahead, the Japanese 92nd Infantry Artillery began shelling again. Li Hu saw that the fireworks were rising from Liu Hei's machine gun position. Now the four machine guns had long been moved to the 1st Company position. The purpose was
It was to cover Li Hu and others' retreat after the bombardment.
Li Hu saw a blown tree stump in front of him, and felt that the distance was almost there, so he made command gestures to find hiding places, and then climbed behind the tree stump. He happened to be in this area now.
The messy battlefield is at a slightly higher position, behind the tree stumps, so you can observe further.
When Li Hu poked his head out of the tree stump, he was shocked. He found that less than 200 meters ahead, a large group of Japanese soldiers also took advantage of the smoky battlefield environment to crawl towards this side. Their shit-yellow soldiers
The military uniforms were crawling on the ground like squirming earthworms, and further away there were a dozen Japanese soldiers hunched over and slowly moving forward carrying four heavy machine guns.
The damn little Japanese is still very cunning. It seems that he wants to close the distance and give himself a hard blow. He also brought four heavy machine guns up. This is the rhythm of revenge. Fortunately, he also figured it out.
, otherwise it is really possible to suffer a loss.
Li Hu turned around and saw that Zhao Da had already led his soldiers to set up artillery behind a mound. He signaled in sign language that there was an enemy coming up in front, and then turned to aim at a Japanese soldier behind who was carrying a heavy machine gun. At 2.5 times the German Zeiss
In the scope, a magnified figure appeared in the center of the cross scale. Li Hu held his breath, pulled the trigger, then quickly aimed at the next one, pulled the trigger again, and repeated...
In less than 2 seconds, Li Hu had already knocked down four Japanese soldiers. Only then did the riflemen around him start shooting. Of course, the target was still the Japanese soldiers who were carrying heavy machine guns. When the random gunshots sounded, the heavy Japanese soldiers
Four or five more machine gunners fell in an instant. At this time, Li Hu retracted the tree stump, turned around and shouted: "Hidden idea! Zhao Da, you are so hot, hurry up!"
At this time, the unique gunfire of the Japanese Army's Type 38 rifles also sounded "Bah-Bah-Bah-". At the same time, the gunshots of several Japanese crooked machine guns also came over. It seemed that Little Japan's reaction was not the same.
Slow, and the distance between Li Hu and the Japanese army's leading troops was less than 200 meters, which happened to be within the shooting range that the Japanese army was good at.
Dense live ammunition whizzed past Li Hu and the others, making the surrounding land pop. In less than a minute of fighting, two soldiers from the infantry squad were shot. Others, including Mu Qinghe, were shot by the Japanese.
The light machine gun was pinned to the ground and did not dare to raise its head. There was no way, there were too many Japanese troops, and the situation was beginning to become critical.
