Chapter 585: Frontal Impact (Page 1/1)

The saddle, which used to be the defensive pillar of the Japanese army on the Luotang Heights, had become dilapidated after violent explosions and dense gunfire, thick smoke rose from the position, a small fire was ignited on the logs of the construction, corpses and equipment fragments were scattered, and sandbags and logs were pressed with many stumps, broken arms and internal organs, and the scene was a mess.

In addition to the two half-blown heavy machine gun fortifications, four or five Japanese corpses that had escaped from the fortifications fell to their deaths, all covered with bullet holes and bloody holes from shrapnel, and there were also wooden strips and sawdust that had been blown up on the logs by anti-artillery shells from the 37th Battle.

The explosion and destruction of anti-artillery grenades, the structural destruction of armor-piercing shells, and the coordination of grenades and grenades as auxiliary materials completely destroyed this machine-gun position, which caused heavy casualties to the officers and men of the 200th Division.

In the machine gun fortifications, most of the 11-year-old light machine guns and 92-type heavy machine guns were blown into parts by the anti-aircraft guns and the blasting canisters of the engineer platoon, and bursts of white smoke came out of the fortifications, and the air was filled with a smell of burning.

The engineer platoon that broke the Japanese machine gun position in the saddle was blasting one by one, destroying the Japanese machine gun fortifications, and against the elite infantry of the engineer platoon rushing to the vicinity, the remaining Japanese troops in the fortifications had little power to fight back, after these Japanese soldiers lost their light and heavy machine gun firepower, there were no weapons suitable for infantry attacks, and there were few rifles, and the Japanese soldiers in the fortifications could not do it if they wanted to rush out in close combat, and there was only a dead end to fight with the melee firearms of the engineer platoon.

The blasting canisters of the engineer platoon took turns attacking the fortifications, and soon the remaining Japanese troops were lost.

"Throw it in, quick!"

He Jinhai was half-crouching, next to a dilapidated Japanese machine-gun fortification, which was the last machine gun fortification that still resisted, and in the broken heavy machine-gun firing, there were Japanese soldiers holding rifles and firing at the outside.

"Bang" A glimmer of fire flashed in the somewhat dark machine gun port, and the crisp sound of gunfire came from inside.

A veteran, taking advantage of the Japanese shooting space inside, leaned over and his arms, put the flower machine machine to the machine gun firing port, and fired a magazine bullet inside, and retreated after firing, and another veteran carefully cooperated to ignite a long blasting canister, and there were two long-handled grenades tied to the barrel, the veteran shouted violently, and threw the canister into the machine gun fortification, and the people surrounding the fortification immediately retreated and fell to the ground.

"Yaga^"

“……”

The Japanese soldiers in the fortifications shouted that some people wanted to throw the blasting canister out, but it was easy to throw such a long canister from the outside, but it was difficult to throw it out from the inside.

Boom - the long blaster with two grenades exploded in the machine gun fortifications, from the inside to the outside was blown down, blowing up black thick smoke, the structure has been destroyed by the battle defense shells in advance of the fortifications, can not withstand the explosion of the long blasting canister, collapsed in the explosion, the remnants of the Japanese inside, crushed to death by the logs, by the grenade and the shrapnel of the long blasting canister to death.

At this point, the officers and men of the engineer platoon got up again and rushed to the bombed-out machine-gun fortifications with bayonets, completely annihilating the Japanese troops in the saddle machine-gun fortifications.

"Quick, let's see if there's anyone who isn't dead!"

He Jinhai stepped on the Japanese fortifications, sharp-eyed and quick-handed, and made up two shots for a Japanese soldier who was not completely dead, and ordered the soldiers of the engineer platoon who captured the Japanese machine gun fortifications to inspect the battlefield, and the soldiers of the engineer platoon searched the corpses of the Japanese soldiers, or stabbed them with bayonets or hit them with rifles, and after sporadic gunfire, all the living combat forces in the Japanese machine gun fortifications were cleared.

The Japanese machine gun fortifications in the saddle of the Luotang Heights were completely wiped out by the engineer platoon, and the two heavy machine gun squads, as well as the 11-year-old light machine gun crew, were all annihilated, from the shooters to the equipment, and the sound of guns on the high ground was instantly lowered, replaced by black smoke rising from the saddle machine gun position, and the Japanese army in Luotang had lost its important firepower pillar.

After knocking out the saddle position, He Jinhai and the engineer platoon moved quickly, quickly closed the team, and took the 37th battle anti-artillery squad and began to return to the main force of the assault force on the front of the high ground.

……

"Captain, Platoon Commander He has succeeded!"

Prostrate on the high ground, Qiu Wei said, pointing to the burning saddle machine gun position.

"Beautiful!"

Zhang Wei applauded.

The neat actions of the engineer platoon and the battle defense artillery relieved the great pressure on the officers and men of the assault troops on the front of the high ground, and the 3rd Squadron, which had suffered a lot of losses, no longer suffered excessive casualties.

With the dozen sapper platoons, the side-firing fire of the Japanese troops on the high ground disappeared, leaving only the main line of defense defended by the Japanese troops in front, and the assault troops could soon attack again.

Zhang Wei also saw that the engineer platoon and the anti-aircraft artillery squad were maneuvering here, and he strengthened his determination to prepare for the attack.

The officers and men of the 13rd Squadron, who were crawling on the high ground, saw that the Japanese machine gun fire fired from the side was gone, and they also felt the breath before the attack, and they were all preparing to charge, and they were beaten by the Japanese troops in front and the Japanese machine gun fire in the side for so long, and the officers and men of the assault unit were holding back their anger in their hearts, and some soldiers slowed down the firing frequency of the rifle machine guns in their hands and opened the cover of the grenade on their waists in preparation for attacking the Japanese frontal defense line.

"Boom Boom"

"Da Da Da"

The only thing that remains unchanged is the suppressive firing of Dong Erli's four 82 mortars and three ZB37 heavy machine guns in the heavy machine gun platoon, the mortars and heavy machine gunners, from the counterfire to the present, have been firing continuously, and they are the firepower pillars of the officers and men of the assault troops, and when the engineer platoon attacks the saddle position, the heavy machine guns and mortars are particularly fierce, Zhang Wei is afraid that the Japanese troops in the main defense line will reinforce the machine gun positions in the saddle, so he calls mortars and light machine guns to speed up the firing and bombardment.

The commander of the Japanese army in Luotang, Ueda, did not send reinforcements, he tried to send a force along the communication trench to reinforce the machine gun position in the saddle, but it was blocked by the 82 mortars and heavy machine guns of the assault force, and the speed at which the engineer platoon solved the saddle machine gun position was really fast, and did not give much time for reinforcements to the Japanese troops in front of the position.

Dong Erli estimated the position of the Japanese trenches through the exposed firepower of the Japanese army, and then organized a salvo of four artillery pieces to shoot mortar shells into the Japanese trenches one after another, causing heavy losses to the Japanese troops in the trenches.

He Jinhai's engineer platoon, quickly retracted, quickly maneuvered, and soon approached the rear of the assault troops, and the forces of the entire assault force converged to the front of the high ground, and Zhang Wei picked up the flower mechanism.

"Brothers, prepare to charge!"

"Prepare to charge!"

The gunfire was too loud on the position, and the order to charge was shouted and passed on the high ground by the squad and platoon commanders and officers, and was conveyed to every soldier.

"Rush!"

Zhang Wei got up and waved forward.

"Kill!"

The officers and men of the 13th Squadron, whose morale was high, stood up from the prostrate high ground with bayonets in their hands, rushed to the main defense line of the Japanese army above the high ground, rushed to the infantry ZB37 heavy machine gun and temporarily stopped firing, and the 82 mortar commanded by Dong Erli accelerated the firing speed, and he wanted to project as many shells as possible into the Japanese battle line before the infantry rushed to a dangerous distance.

The soldiers of the 13th Squadron stepped on the last 50 meters of the impact distance, met the last firepower of the Japanese army in Luotang, and started the general attack of the assault force on Luotang.

……

Captain Ueda, the supreme commander of the Japanese army in Luotang, witnessed the destruction of the saddle machine gun position and the powerful combat firepower of the Chinese army in front of him, and now the Chinese army in front of him rushed like a rainbow, and he now knew that he was powerless.
