Qi Liangchutama's side already had a method of escaping, and his nervousness finally relaxed a little, but the offensive of the special forces outside the wall continued unabated.
Especially after Lu Zhongda used the third 'steel ball bullet' to kill the Japanese army's second grenade launcher, Shen Laoliu felt like a fish in water.
What snipers fear most is that it really isn't two sharpshooters sniping at each other. No matter how strong the opponent is, there is only one bullet. Both sides have a chance of killing the opponent and allowing themselves to survive.
But when a sniper encounters a cannon, there is really no goal. That thing can be fired completely outside your range and then tear the sniper into pieces.
The Japanese troops in the compound had no cannons, but the grenades were miniature mortars, which posed the greatest threat to Shen Laoliu, who had almost no fortifications.
The first grenade was exposed by Lu Zhongda because it attacked Heizi, but the second grenade was aimed at Shen Laoliu, who was enjoying killing people. The two consecutive grenades were not not accurate enough, but
Because the distance was too short, the grenade fell on the roof before it had time to explode. Because the roof was a slope, it rolled down. The grenade that fell under the eaves and exploded in the air did nothing but cover Shen Laoliu's body with a layer of ash.
effect.
Shen Laoliu did not leave his fighting position, he believed that Lu Zhongda would be able to help him solve this disaster.
Shen Laoliu, who had great faith in his comrades on the battlefield, was also rewarded. Lu Zhongda used the third 'steel ball bomb' tonight and a pure explosive bomb to send the Japanese army's second grenade and the grenade hand to the ground.
sky.
Shen Laoliu was also able to continue to suppress the Japanese infantry from the commanding heights and cover the special forces who were still outside the wall.
And Heizi over there finally approached the high wall, leaned his back against the wall, put down the big backpack in his hand, and took out a bunch of...
Grenade!
There are at least fifteen!
Yes, the huge backpack behind Heizi contained not only bullets for the MG34 machine gun, but also hand grenades. When leading the ordnance, the ordnance officer was almost dumbfounded as he watched the Shandong man stuff a full 20 grenades into his big backpack.
The weight of 20 grenades up to ten kilograms doesn't really matter, but when fighting, is it really good to carry such a thing similar to an explosive pack on your back?
Facts tell the ordnance officer that as long as they don't really become explosives, grenades are really good, especially when fighting offensive battles.
Thanks to Mingxin's entry into Wang's mansion, his super memory allowed him to basically draw the terrain map he saw in Wang's mansion. Heizi, who was familiar with the terrain map at least ten times, based on what the Japanese army had just shown in the dark night.
He used his firepower to throw at least eight grenades based on his feeling.
The other seven were naturally turned into cluster grenades and placed against the wall to be used as explosive packs.
Several companions rushing into the distance made evasive gestures. Heizi pulled the grenade fuse and jumped into a house more than ten meters away with his gun and large backpack.
With a loud "Boom!", the half-meter-thick wall was blown open, creating a three- to four-meter-wide gap.
This is not because the Wang family's mansion, which has been built for more than ten years, has cut corners, but the old Wang family has never thought that one day their walls will be blasted by explosives. In the boundary of Licheng, it is good to have old sleeves, and it is useless to have shell guns.
Called luxury, the bluestone brick walls are more about preventing thieves and burglars. Although they are more than half a meter thick, the material is incomparable to the reinforced concrete walls of Sihang Warehouse.
A huge explosion sounded, and there was no need for Heizi to give any more orders. Over there, Lu Zhongda set up a grenade and fired a special grenade-style flare into the Wang family's mansion. The slowly falling illumination bomb destroyed the Wang family's mansion, which covers an area of nearly ten acres.
Many areas are illuminated to perfection.
Over there, Heizi, who had found his shooting position, had already replaced a spare barrel. He was making final preparations for the next round of shooting 500 rounds of bullets.
This time, he wanted to let the Japanese soldiers in the yard and the house enjoy what high-speed firepower was. Compared with the machine gun in his hand, Shen Laoliu's small semi-automatic was nothing! No matter how accurate it was, it didn't matter.
So, if I can ejaculate faster, how much more can I ejaculate?
Captain Hei wants quantity over quality! Shen Laoliu looked at Heizi from afar as he put the ammunition on his belt and put the gun handle into his shoulder, with a melancholy look on his face!
But how can I put it? When quantity reaches a certain level, quality seems to be not that important.
"Da da da!" The clear and crisp sound was like a lament from hell, making the five special forces on both sides of the gap who were preparing to break into the hospital feel their scalps numb!
Being shot by such machine guns, they didn't know how to defend themselves except hiding in the fortifications without showing their heads.
MG34 roared for more than twenty seconds before stopping.
Not a burst shot, but a continuous shot.
The barrel of a newly replaced gun was beaten dark red and was almost ready to be declared scrapped.
But the cost of scrapping it was that more than 500 rounds of ammunition were fired, which was one-third of all the ammunition belts carried by Heizi.
From the yard to the house, almost all the Japanese soldiers were either shot over by terrifying bullets, or hid and did not dare to raise their heads. Anyone who dared to raise their heads was beaten into a sieve along with the wooden windows or doors, without any exception.
Just a machine gun is so terrifying.
What's more, there are five special forces who have entered the courtyard through the gap under the cover of machine guns.
The special forces who entered the yard once again threw grenades into the house, causing a wailing sound, and then fired mercilessly with submachine guns. Whether they were trying to escape or resist, they were all knocked to the ground.
Of course, there were also those who resisted to the death, either shooting desperately from inside the house, or rushing out with rifles in their hands while roaring.
However, for the five special forces advancing in the second and third formation, this is a dream come true. With the MP28 submachine gun in hand, the last thing they are afraid of is a fool who wants to fight hand-to-hand because of a disagreement. A dozen bullets in one shuttle are enough to kill anyone.
The creatures that are moving in a straight line will be mopped up, but if there are still fish that slip through the net, it’s not scary.
He put the submachine gun behind his back, pulled out the twenty-shot shell gun from his waist, and swiped it with another shot.
The two people at the front didn't care about the two wings at all, they only fired at the front, and the two wings were handed over to the left and right of the three people behind.
This requires not only extreme trust in comrades, but also the strong combat effectiveness of the soldiers themselves.
The five special forces who entered the Wang family mansion were actually recruited from the guard platoon led by the original Lao Hei. Long-term battles have already cultivated enough trust, and those who can enter the guard platoon are undoubtedly the best among the best.
With strong firepower and tacit cooperation, coupled with the fire cover from a sharpshooter and a terrifying machine gunner on the outside, the elite Japanese infantry collapsed like soup and snow, becoming the backdrop for the five-man team to continuously advance and advance again.
The defeat of the Japanese infantry squad actually did not start with the killing of the two grenade groups. What really made them start to fight independently and no longer have a combat system was when their second lieutenant squad leader who was hiding in the courtyard was shot by a machine gun that fired wildly.
Start by sieving.
The miserable Japanese second lieutenant was still hiding in a room, waving a pistol and screaming for his subordinates to fight back, but the machine gun actually penetrated the brick wall, and a full twenty rounds of bullets hit the area where the Japanese second lieutenant was, and the second lieutenant was also on the spot.
Received a lunch box.
From then on, the remaining Japanese troops in the compound began to fight independently. In addition to their military strength, they also had certain advantages. In terms of firepower and organization, they were inferior to their opponents, and defeat was almost inevitable.
And all of this has nothing to do with Nakatama Saki. He, along with several communications officers from the brigade headquarters and the Wang family and his son, has already gotten into the tunnel.
Wang Tianqing's second son went to a hunter's house in the mountains to collect bear skins in the afternoon on the orders of Qi Liangzhongyu, but he has not returned yet.
It was a birthday gift that Nakatama Sakira originally planned to give to the leader of the division, Xiong Yuan. Now it seems that, let alone a complete bear skin, it is a tiger skin. It is estimated that Xiong Yuan, who is about to celebrate his birthday, will not be happy.
Regardless of whether the Chinese can attack the city today!
Because, at least the dozens of people in the headquarters of the Sixth Infantry Brigade are gone.
"Your Excellency, Captain, do you want to inform the Takeda infantry team to evacuate?" A captain-level staff officer asked for his colleagues before entering the tunnel.
"The warriors of the empire will fight for His Majesty the Emperor to the end, no matter who they are!" Sakira Nakatama threw a bowl of poisonous chicken soup with a sullen face, and went into the tunnel without looking back.
Everyone knew that the infantry team guarding the Wang family compound had been abandoned.
This is the fate of the little people in war!
Victory and glory belong to the generals, and failure and humiliation are shouldered by them with their lives!
The successful escape of Nakatama Saki was beyond the surprise of the special forces. Originally, they thought they could harvest the head of a Japanese soldier as a reward for their military exploits. After all, this was a decapitation tactic.
When Sakira Nakatama escaped, he failed to behead him and instead ended up burning down the den of thieves. However, this ending was not a bad thing in terms of the overall strategy.
The signal soldiers of the Sixth Infantry Battalion who fled to safety once again sent a request for help to the division headquarters stationed in Lucheng. They did not mention that their brigade headquarters was under attack. They kept emphasizing that the Chinese outside the city actually used a large number of artillery.
.
The Japanese reinforcements in Lucheng set off as a team at 5 a.m., more than an hour earlier than before.
The reinforcements from Lucheng in time and space did not arrive until dawn at six o'clock, and they did not arrive at Shentou Ridge, 12 kilometers away from Licheng, until around 9 o'clock in the morning.
This time, they should be able to feel the spring chill from the Taihang Mountains the moment the sun rises and warmth falls!
When the gunfire from the resistance at Wang's mansion basically disappeared, Heizi and Shen Laoliuda all left their original positions, and the seven of them conducted a final inspection of Wang's mansion.
Lu Zhongda, on the other hand, chose a room with clear sight lines to the left and right, placed the mortars and grenade launchers, and began to make the final arrangements for the position he selected alone.
That's right, it's a position.
The Wang family mansion they captured was their position.
Their mission of attacking the Japanese army headquarters has been completed, but at the same time, the soon-to-be-completed combat mission of attracting Japanese troops in the city has just begun.
I don't know how many Japanese troops will come here to reinforce from all directions. Now, they have to work hard for whether they are alive.
In other words, the most difficult battle for the eight of them will begin at any time.
Their concerns are right.
As early as the beginning of the attack, Saki Rachutama issued an order to reinforce the brigade headquarters, and at least two infantry squads rushed here.
That was a force of hundreds of people, and it could kill several of the eight special forces soldiers just by using their lives.
However, they are not fighting alone, even in this city full of Japanese invaders.
Tang Dao would not let his eight elite men be sacrificed like this.
If the battle inside the city has gone smoothly so far, although there are a large number of artillery assists outside the city, the progress is not as fast as expected.
.
.
.
.
.
Tang Dao, who was standing on the position outside the city, was making a decision right now!
The Japanese are not fools. They are smarter than many people. To say that they lack IQ is an insult to all the martyrs who have sacrificed their lives.
Tang Dao's seemingly perfectly designed siege finally encountered its first problem.
After five rounds of artillery fire, no Japanese troops could be seen on the devastated south wall.
That was the result of 8 82 mortars plus 2 75 mountain guns and 6 37 mm rapid-fire cannons firing a total of 300 rounds of artillery shells.
The Chinese cannot survive the flames of artillery fire, and the Japanese are not made of steel. Even if they are, they will still be melted by such blazing artillery fire.
The Third Battalion, which is mainly attacking in the south city gate direction, has sent a platoon from Li Jijin's 7th Company as the leading platoon to enter the city gate cave.
But they could go no further.
If they had not used the Japanese sandbag bunkers as a cover to advance alternately under the hail of bullets, at least seven or eight people would have been killed or injured at this moment.
Now, two people are still seriously injured and three people are slightly injured!
Nakatama Saki may not be an iron-blooded commander in terms of firm will, but he is definitely cunning enough.
His city defense system was not developed around the city wall from the beginning. He used each city gate and city wall as an outpost. There were two infantry squads on the 600-meter city wall, with a strength of 30 people and two machine guns.
If an enemy comes, the infantry squadron in the barracks behind will only send small reinforcements, instead of relying on the city wall to fight the invading enemy with a large number of troops.
It wasn't that Qi Liangchutama was afraid that his opponent would have artillery. The number of artillery in the Chinese army was extremely small. He was afraid that he would use a secret method to plant explosives under the city wall.
After all, this is Chinese territory. It is not inconceivable to dig a secret passage from a residential house to the city wall no more than ten meters away and then plant explosives.
Because there is precedent for this.
In the Battle of the Four Elements, the Chinese had done something like this! Therefore, before taking complete control of Licheng County, Qi Liangzhongyu would never put all his elite infantry on the city wall and take this risk.
The real defensive power of the four cities of Licheng is the defensive position behind the city wall.
On the fourth day after entering Licheng County, Qi Liangzhongtama personally ordered that the Japanese army drove all residents within 30 meters of the city wall out of their homes, demolished all the houses, and used the removed bricks and solid wood to support Mianmian.
There are endless fortifications built into the houses, and they are very particular.
Tomato Novel
There is a main position and two wing positions. Each of the two wing positions has a light machine gun to form a cross-fire attack on the open area 30 meters in front of the main position. Although the rate of fire of the crooked machine gun is a bit sluggish, in such a situation where the two cross-fire forces
Under the attack, enemies who dare to charge will definitely suffer heavy casualties.
What's more, there are two Type 92 heavy machine guns on the main position. They are placed on the roofs of two flat-roofed houses behind the position. They are tightly protected with sandbags, leaving only a shooting hole with a shooting range of 70 degrees.
, like a bunker without a roof, unless bombarded by mortars, ordinary machine rifles pose no threat to them.
At the same time, the Japanese army also set up a first-line position and a second-line position. The two positions were only more than 20 meters apart, with civilian houses and lanes in between as cover. This not only allowed the soldiers in the first-line position to retreat to the second-line position at any time, but also made it more convenient.
When the second-line position adds troops to the first-line position, you cannot attack it due to the obstruction of these buildings.
The entire position is more than 300 meters wide, and almost all the passages at the south gate are included in its firepower. If you want to pass through, you must defeat them.
If artillery is used, such a position is naturally not worth showing off. Four mountain cannons are used to bombard the position wildly. Not only will these not-so-sturdy houses not become their shelter, perhaps because the collapse of the house can still
hasten their destruction.
The setting up of these defensive positions of Qi Liangchutama was naturally based on the fact that the Chinese were short of artillery. He did not expect that one day he would face the Chinese army with mountain artillery and mortars, and he, in total,
Just two infantry guns.
For this reason, he still placed two infantry cannons in the military camp as mascots. They were 'artifacts' that were only used by the infantry brigade when they left the city.
Do we still need infantry artillery to defend the city? What if the Chinese have tanks?
Of course, after hearing the rumble of artillery fire from the Chinese bombarding the city wall, Nakatama Saki ordered his little treasure, the artillery squad, to be dispatched.
Two infantry guns respectively reinforce the east gate and south gate where the artillery fire is the brightest!
I just don’t know that when the Chinese don’t have a fixed target, the two direct-aimed cannons can be used as a base?
I guess the form is far greater than the actual meaning!
Anyway, once the war starts, the artillery must not be idle.
However, for that small 70mm cannon, which fired intermittently like an old man peeing, the troops of the Four Lines Regiment really didn't take it seriously.
The four 150-weight mortars deployed outside the city have not spoken yet!
Leng Feng frowned after receiving the battle report from the front. He was not at all excited about the fact that he was about to be able to enter the city and fight the Japanese army in street battles with zero casualties.
The defensive deployment of the Japanese army was too difficult to make a choice.
He could summon Pang Hai's 1st artillery battery to bombard the Japanese defensive positions, but the artillery shells did not have eyes. There were endless residential buildings only ten meters behind the Japanese positions.
It was easy for the artillery to fire, but when burying the Japanese troops, they also buried their own compatriots. This was a consequence that he, the battalion commander, could not bear.
But if you can't use artillery, you have to fight hard with infantry, and you have to pay a high price.
It seems that this is a dead end.
Leng Feng was still unable to make a decision, so the decision-making power could only be left to Tang Tuanzuo, who came to the South Gate in person to supervise the battle.
Tang Dao looked at the small town that was constantly illuminated by artillery fire, his eyes cold!
Do you want the lives of your compatriots or your comrades?
The choice can only be made by him, the supreme commander on the battlefield!
