Chapter 392: Big Fat Meat Has to Be Eaten One Bite at a Time

。 The Japanese army is naturally not a Transformer.

The machine guns are strafing, and they can't stay in the trenches, so they can only jump out and fight hard, and if they don't jump out again, maybe they won't even have a chance to get machine gun bullets.

The Yamamoto brigade is indeed very brave.

Even if the battle was fought to this extent, it still did not retreat.

The Japanese soldiers who survived the grenade threw their own grenades at the enemy dozens of meters away, and then rushed out of the trench with a scream.

He didn't dare to look up at all to observe the enemy's grenade, and although he blew up a few soldiers who couldn't dodge, the damage caused was pitiful.

The Japanese soldiers who rushed out of the trenches tried hard to shoot the last bullet in the chamber with their bright bayonets, and then rushed viciously towards the extremely thin formation of the company with their short and thick legs.

Excluding the 40 men of the cannon platoon used for fire support, the remaining infantry of the forward company was only 130 men, spread out in squads and platoons over a position of 1,500 meters, with an average of only one infantry per 12 meters.

Compared with the 400 Japanese troops who rushed out, of course, it was pitiful.

Behind them, however, were six machine guns and five MG42 machine guns that had stopped firing but were still in good standing.

Seeing the Japanese army rushing out of the trench with great momentum, the machine gun shooters pulled the bolt fiercely, stuck the bullet belt that had been prepared into the chamber of the gun, and began their feast without hesitation.

Listening to the terrible screaming machine gun bullets flying over their heads at high speed, the more than 130 infantry of the first company did not dare to get up at all, but only dared to lie on the ground and shoot at the Japanese who used to be extremely fierce with bayonets, but now have some pitiful Japanese soldiers.

The sound of machine gun fire is not like the "click" of a normal machine gun, nor is it a muffled "pop puff" chainsaw like the full-fire MG42, but a terrible "knock knock", similar to the sound of striking a heavy iron cylinder.

With each terrible muffled sound, a bullet as thick as a cigar shot out of the chamber. As a specialized anti-aircraft weapon, the Japanese 20-mm twin-mounted cannon had a rate of fire of 100 rounds per minute, that is, 1.5 shells would burst out of the chamber every second.

The six cannons fired an average of 10 shells per second.

At a distance of 30 meters, the heavily armed Japanese troops ran at full speed, and it only took 7 seconds, but in these 7 seconds, they had to withstand a total of 70 machine gun shells.

How powerful a 20-mm shell that can penetrate 30 mm armor within a straight line distance of 250 meters has been experienced by Cheng Yuanshan, who attacked the Japanese heavy artillery brigade.

The kinetic energy of the cannonball's high-speed sweep can even directly break the soldier in two, and it can also beat the next soldier in a straight line into a pile of minced meat without hindrance.

The Japanese, like the Chinese, were mortal creatures of the flesh, and they became a tragedy in the face of shells sprayed by machine guns.

What's more, their formation is too dense.

The Yamamoto Brigade, which had nearly 1,000 Japanese invaders, was killed and wounded more than 200 people in the previous shelling, and lost more than 100 again after another round of mortar strikes, and the 500 grenades that exploded in the trenches like rain was the most terrifying killing, killing nearly half of the remaining 600-odd people.

Under the leadership of Captain Masao Yamamoto Nakasa, Japanese invaders with less than 400 men and nearly 2 infantry squadrons rushed out of the trenches. The Japanese army, accustomed to discharging wave charge formations, had broken countless Chinese with wave after wave charge, so they were once again accustomed to attacking like this.

However, the power of the Japanese cannons proved that so-called wave attacks could only be achieved before the opponent had them.

A cigar-thick cannonball shattered a Japanese soldier's thigh and burst into a cloud of blood mist, changing direction a little bit, and once again grazing the head of a Japanese lieutenant who was running ten meters later, with a murderous face in his face.

The head of the Japanese lieutenant disappeared in an instant, as if it had never appeared, and the scene that had not even burst disappeared, and the sturdy body even ran forward five or six meters with the help of inertia before falling to the ground, and the blood spurting out of the neck cavity was like a strange fountain, spurting forward seven or eight meters away.

This way of dying, don't be too bloody.

After eight days of hard fighting, the nerves of the company have been trained like steel, and the soldiers of the company are also numb when they see it.

Less than 100 shells sent a bloody storm among the Japanese troops, and at least 40 people were knocked to the ground in a terrible manner.

There is no such thing as injury, only death.

Even if it is just a sweep of the limbs, the limbs will disappear in an instant, and the massive blood loss caused by the huge wound will take the life of the wounded in a few minutes, and the hemostatic bag they carry with them cannot even plug the wound, let alone stop the bleeding.

He was swept by a machine gun and died a miserable death, but after all, the rate of fire was limited, and not many shells were fired.

What caused a large number of casualties among the Japanese and their subsequent collapse were five MG42 machine guns.

Five MG42s, with their barrels and cartridge belts replaced, sprayed nearly 500 rounds in just five seconds, and the "Hitler Chainsaw" demonstrated the ferocity of Third Reich technology to their future allies in the East.

In five seconds, as many as 100 Japanese troops fell under the "Hitler chainsaw", which was killed and wounded purely by consuming a large number of bullets. Half of the infantry squadron, wiped out by five machine guns, just sighed.

What's more, they were faced with more than that, there were also forty flower traps with twenty-round magazines and nearly 100 rifles aimed at shooting.

The result is conceivable.

Just now, there were nearly 400 people in a menacing manner, but before they could catch their breath, they had not even crossed twenty meters, and they were half of them.

No matter how strong the Japanese army was in the fight, it could not stand this blow, and the Japanese troops in the rear did not hesitate to turn around and run wildly, not caring at all about exposing their unprotected backs to the enemy.

Just jump into the trenches before you get caught up by bullets, to hell with the so-called imperial honor! The soldiers of the Yamamoto Brigade, whose morale had been extremely low after a series of critical hits, wanted nothing more than to flee and escape from this battlefield that made them feel extremely frightened.

"The first platoon, the second platoon, enter the trenches to clear the remnants of the devils, and the third platoon of machine guns is responsible for fire alert." Seeing that the Japanese invaders collapsed and fled into the trenches, they did not mean to beat the water dogs forward, and gave the order very calmly.

The strategic goal of his company is to capture the front-line position of the Japanese army, not to chase the Japanese army's butt to the devil's nest and fight with the devil.

Tuanzao said before the battle that the Japanese army was as high as 15,000 people, and they were only 2,000 people, and if they wanted to eat this piece of big fat meat, they couldn't be in a hurry, they had to stew the meat slowly, eat them one bite at a time, and if they wanted to eat one bite at a time, the most likely consequence would be to support themselves to death.

Of course, the two Japanese brigades on both flanks were not idle, and when they saw that the Chinese launched an attack on their main position, they naturally had to support. Unfortunately, they were faced with two battalions that were no less numerous than them, and with the addition of heavy fire points.

The military strength obtained by Qi Guangyuan and Dong Shengtang is also responsible for containment, as long as the Japanese troops on both flanks are not allowed to drop their firepower on the central main position. What's more, there are eight mountain guns to provide fire support to them at all times.

In the face of such an enemy, the two infantry brigades on both flanks of the Japanese army were worried about their self-preservation, so they still dared to provide assistance to the main position?

Even Terube Tanibe did not expect that an infantry brigade of nearly a thousand people would retreat without even surviving the first attack of the Chinese, and he did not even have time to send reserves.

The Yamada Brigade, which was able to return to the second line of defense, turned out to be less than an infantry squadron, and there were 800 people, and they were lost on the position.

Seeing that one of his most elite brigades had become the infantry squadron with the lowest morale, Matsuda Kunizo wanted to cut down Masao Yamada's bastard with one sword.

Unfortunately, he couldn't find a punching bag, and Masao Yamada, who bravely jumped out of the trench to direct the charge, was aimed at at least five rifles at the same time, and was killed at the front of the position at the first time.

The golden epaulettes on his shoulders were simply a golden military feat in the eyes of a company of soldiers.
