Chapter 942 - Start Fighting 1

The Japanese style of combat is different from that of Britain and France, and when the order to start fighting is issued, Britain and France must first prepare for more than half an hour of firepower, and then the infantry charges. After the attack order was issued, the Japanese first moved the engineers, and a group of sappers quietly crawled out of the assembly area under the cover of night, and then advanced towards the first barbed wire fence 100 meters to 150 meters away, and more figures with white towels wrapped around their arms appeared behind the sappers.www.biquge.info

The Japanese already had some understanding of the German fortifications, the first barbed wire fence and the second barbed wire fence should have been free of mines, the Japanese planned to clear the minefield behind after the sappers had solved the two barbed wire, and finally launched the pig rush, at this time, they were only about 200 meters away from the German position. If you are caught off guard, it should be fine, right? And in order to avoid exposure, the Japanese army also specifically avoided the observation posts of the German army! It's a perfect plan, there's no reason to lose!

The barbed wire of the Germans was also the first time that the Japanese had seen it, and this was not just a few wooden piles with barbed wire, but a circle of pit viper wire, which was not enough to be cut, but also to destroy and remove as much as possible. Otherwise, once you run into it, the more you struggle, the bigger it gets. There are also some cans hanging from the wire, which must also be removed carefully, otherwise the slightest sound will have serious consequences on a quiet night.

The Japanese sappers used vices, and even their hands, to dismantle the barbed wire and the canned food boxes on it, and even if they were stabbed with blood, they endured it and persevered. It wasn't until they had cleaned up everything that might be making a noise and started pulling the barbed wire to the side that something finally happened!

In the moonlight, Private Yoshimura Taro saw a long cylinder suddenly jump out of the earth! This thing exploded in an instant after rising to about 3 meters in the air! A bright yellow fireball suddenly appeared in the night sky, and thousands of steel balls and shrapnel formed a steel storm poured down from the sky! A strike area with a diameter of more than 12 meters was formed on the ground, and the shrapnel generated after this high explosion was unavoidable, whether standing, doing, or lying on his stomach, he could not dodge, even if there were individual obstacles, these shrapnel could fly over and tear the soldiers behind to pieces! There's always a 4-digit shrapnel for you!

The sudden explosion was just like that! It's like a drop of water falling into a pan of oil! The entire battlefield immediately changed from the silence of a second ago to a hell full of noise and flames, several flares swayed from the rear of the German positions, and after reaching the highest point, thousands of candle-bright balls of light slowly fell with the help of parachutes, and the dazzling white light from the violently burning magnesium illuminated everything around them as if it were day! At this time, most of the Japanese soldiers subconsciously stopped in place and covered their eyes.

The roar of the machine guns like tearing oil cloths instantly resounded on the battlefield, and the machine guns hidden in the pillboxes and bunkers began to fire at the exposed Japanese troops frantically inclining, and the bright red lines of fire were intertwined and firing frantically, and the curved trajectory crossed the air and then formed an oval bomb drop area, indicating that the death oval began to sweep the infantry in front step by step.

Although the Germans did not deploy patches of mines in the outermost barbed wire area, they still needed to hang some flares and mines on the barbed wire. It can only be said that the Japanese army has never encountered such a lineup before, and it would not be a big deal if it was a simple thunder explosion, but it was followed by flares and machine gun fire, which made the Japanese a little unexpected, after all, when fighting with the Russians, how could the other party be so shrewd! The seemingly perfect plan of the Japanese army was ruined by a thunderbolt hidden in the barbed wire!

"Let's get started!" Suzuki Takao looked at the sudden exchange of fire in the distance hatefully, and could only reluctantly issue a combat order to attack on the whole line, but after all, there was a calculation or not, and the machine guns that the Germans temporarily fired were only on duty, and the number was not much, although the Japanese army was caught off guard in a short period of time, but after the artillery in front of the second division fired, the counterattack of the German army was instantly suppressed, after all, no matter how strong the machine gun was, it couldn't beat the artillery!

I have to say that Takao Suzuki's arrangement is still very powerful, the nearest infantry guns fired at German machine-gun bunkers at a distance of 300 meters, which is simply on the top of the head for artillery! The sudden burst of fire instantly silenced the fire of several machine guns. The howitzers deployed in the back began to suppress the forward positions, when a group of fire rose in the German position, a large number of Japanese soldiers shouted "onboard" with rifles rushed over like a tide, the bright bayonets on the rifles glowed with cold light under the light of the fire, don't you say, this is really a bit bluffing!

Everything went so smoothly, although there were some discordant notes from time to time in the tide of people, such as the explosion of mines that were not detonated by shells, for example, a large piece of depression by directional lightning in a certain place, but on the whole, the attack was still very smooth, the Japanese troops of the second division flooded the outermost German cordon very smoothly, and then evaded the first line of defense like a flood.

"Doesn't that look like anything?" Suzuki Takao looked at the situation of his troops on the sand table with satisfaction and said, there is a way, no matter how high the kung fu is, a brick will be knocked down. This sneak attack advantage is great, otherwise, the old Japanese army would not like sneak attacks up and down, and all kinds of sneak attacks .......

The Germans were really unprepared, or rather did not expect the Japanese to launch such a large offensive at night. On the opposite side was the German commander Hans. Feng. Seckert was also a little shocked at first, but soon, calm returned, partly because only Takao Suzuki's troops began to progress relatively smoothly, and the troops of the other two divisions seemed to have some problems attacking. As for another reason? Let's not talk about it for now.

Utsunomiya Taro's offensive battle is the most passive, in terms of artillery preparation and artillery skills, this infantry officer is obviously not as tall as Suzuki Takao, although he has greatly strengthened the number of automatic weapons in the assault force, but if you want to rely on the not easy to use Sausa submachine gun and the German MG series machine gun to fire, it is obviously a matter of thinking too much. Think about it, how can a light machine gun that does not even have wind deviation correction, can only use a wrench to adjust a sight, and does not even have a ruler, and uses a light machine gun with a 20-round magazine, can ensure the accuracy and suppressiveness of long-range shooting?
