306. Enemy Infantry Attack
Just as Xiucai sent a pursuit force to chase down the devil deserters, he didn't expect a roar at the turn behind him, and it turned out that a large number of peasants were running after the two devils with hoes and flat poles.
The devil's mount didn't know where it went, and the devil's cavalry who lost his mount was like a fish that had lost water, so he could only fork his lap legs and desperately flee forward.
Even if they have knives and guns in their hands, the squadron leader of that devil and the pistol of Southern Fourteen, now in their hands, it is useless.
Dozens or hundreds of villagers followed and chased up, the pistol has a fart at this time, once you are caught up by the villagers, you will be trampled to death, not to mention the hoe in their hand.
After all, the squadron leader of the devil is a little old, he usually eats and drinks a lot, and his body is obviously not strong enough, and he no longer has the majesty he used to have, and he is already out of breath before he runs a few hundred meters.
Le Dexiucai They didn't go up to catch him, they sat far away to watch a good show, and the group of wolf-like villagers caught up with the devil squadron leader who was a little lucky in a few leaps forward, and the hoe was flattened, and the devil twitched and straightened his legs, and his life was whimpered.
The few women who caught up behind still didn't understand their hatred, picked up the big stone, and kept beating the devil's head, and the head of the devil's squadron leader was smashed flat, and they were all about to smash into the mud, and the gang didn't stop.
How could such a lovely and bloody Chinese people die in the country, Xiucai sighed, but unfortunately, less than ten days later, the citizens of Nanjing were willingly hacked and killed by the Japanese like hypnotized fat pigs.
Another young devil, lean and capable, runs as fast as the wind, and also, in the escape, the potential of the body will exert the maximum energy.
The villagers really couldn't outrun him, but they saw this lean devil fleeing all the way to the river, and this devil still had some brains, knew the direction, and knew how to flee to the south.
When they arrived at the river, regardless of the cold river water in winter, a fierce man plunged down and wanted to swim to the other bank, but the villagers had just chased to the shore, and they could only hit with stones.
When the three dogs saw this, they immediately picked up a rifle from their subordinates, and after aiming, with their breath, they hit the devil with one shot, and everyone cheered.
Unexpectedly, that devil was the same as Xiaoqiang, who couldn't be killed, and he showed his head again after a while, maybe he was hit in the shoulder by Sangou or something, Sangou was annoyed for a while, Lao Tzu was the first time to be a real company commander, and he didn't give this face.
So he picked up the gun again, this time aiming at the devil, slowly decisively firing a few shots, and finally, a headshot shot knocked the devil's heavenly spirit cover flying, and the devil who was shot could no longer hold on, struggled for a while, and submerged in the water.
……
After the cavalry, there must be infantry, Sangou guessed correctly, everyone just annihilated the devil's cavalry, and after a while, the enemy infantry was found in the distance south of the bridge.
"The three platoons will enter the position immediately." Sangou issued an order, and then asked Xiucai to build a second position, and he took the communication soldier Xia Chen to climb a small hill, observe and roughly calculate the number of devils with a telescope.
I went, there were actually 500 people in the front of the troops, fortunately the cavalry troops of the devil were annihilated in time just now, otherwise, let the follow-up infantry of the devil come up, and the seventh company estimated that it would not even be able to get out, and I thought of it in a cold sweat.
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, Sangou ordered the three platoons of the forward position not to resist hard, and gradually retreated, and asked Xia Chen to notify Xiucai to organize some manpower, and called on the villagers to quickly flee to Qinglong Mountain behind, the devil is a beast, and it is normal to kill the people.
More than 500 Japanese troops, almost two squadrons, three dogs and one company, could not resist no matter what, and as soon as the three platoons of the forward position came into contact, they felt that the enemy's firepower was so huge that they were overwhelmed.
The Japanese mortars rained down on the positions of the three platoons, and at least three 92 heavy planes fired from three angles on the left, center and right.
Originally, the accuracy of the heavy machine gun was very average, but the machine gun shooter of the devil was really good, and almost hit the chest wall and sandbags of the position.
Fortunately, the bullets of the 92 Heavy Machinery are 6.5mm caliber, and the penetration force is not large, so there is no problem in hitting people, and the cover for the work is average, and it is difficult to break the sand barricade or breast wall of the fortification.
Fortunately, Sangou knew that the Japanese infantry attack was particularly fond of roundabout tactics, and the main position was originally set up at the foot of the mountain, but now he tried to move the first position forward to the river, facing the only bridge in Hushu Town.
In winter, the river is cold, and if there is not a very important stronghold on the opposite side that needs to be captured, the Japanese are generally reluctant to cross the river elsewhere for a roundabout flank attack or attack from behind the defenders.
Anyway, relying on their advanced weapons, the Japanese army began to attack tentatively, and when they found that the cavalry in front of them had suffered casualties on the bridge deck, they immediately began to pay attention to the defenders on the other side of the river.
The degree of attention is directly proportional to the intensity of the mortar strike, coupled with the suppressive fire of the 92 Heavy Machine, it can almost press the defenders on the position and not raise their heads.
In this way, it was possible to cover the movement of the infantry squad's straggler triangle tactics, and the three platoon commanders hid in a hidden place on the flank of the position, learning from the three dogs to calculate the distance of the Japanese army's advance.
When the Japanese army moved to the bridge deck, Thanon gave an order, and everyone began the first wave of grenade attacks, because the distance had been measured beforehand, and the forward position was very close to the bridge deck, which was more than 30 meters away.
This distance was set to dig the position, just for throwing grenades, and when attacking the cavalry units before, everyone had already thrown grenades, and knew the best angle, direction and strength to throw on the bridge deck.
Therefore, three platoons of fighters, who can nest in the position without showing their heads, can throw grenades on the bridge deck, eight or nine without leaving ten. After the first wave of grenades ejected, they exploded on the bridge deck one after another.
The narrow bridge deck was not conducive to the Japanese army to dodge, and they either jumped into the water or lay on the bridge deck for their lives, but despite this, some of the devils were killed by grenades.
This is very annoying, the defenders do not show their heads, whatever you want to suppress heavy firepower such as mortar grenadiers and 92 heavy machines, but your attacking team will have to cross this bridge, and the distance of this bridge is exactly the best distance to throw grenades.
However, this difficulty is difficult for the enemy with superb tactical skills, as soon as the devil striker enters the bridge, he immediately crawls forward, even if the bridge is full of scraps of cavalry and the ground is half congealed with sticky blood.
But in order to survive, no matter how dirty the ground is, it is much better to hold back than to raise your head and be cut off by grenade fragments, so that the grenade tactics of the defenders will not be the most effective.
