Onboard! ”

The first brigade of the 112th Wing of the Japanese army concentrated the main force of the infantry of the whole brigade at one time, and poured out, and the main forces of the three infantry squadrons, the heavy machine gun squadron and the infantry artillery squad to which an infantry brigade belonged were all dispatched, and the infantry brigade of more than 1,000 people, except for a small number of miscellaneous and command personnel, the vast majority of the people were engaged in the direct charge of the position of the supplementary second regiment.

The 112th Wing smashed nearly one-third of its troops in one fell swoop, trying to take the outlying positions of Tonggu with a single attack.

The Japanese troops of the 112nd Wing also felt that one attack was enough to deal with the Chinese army, and according to their experience in the Chinese battlefield, almost no Chinese army could withstand the impact of the infantry brigade after the artillery bombardment at the division and regimental level.

The soldiers of the 1st Brigade of the 112th Wing stepped on the warm soil and roared and rushed to the position of the 2nd Supplementary Regiment, while the Japanese soldiers and junior officers brandished their sabers and pushed against the front of the charging team, they wanted to make a fuss and replicate the great victory achieved in southern Burma.

Behind the infantry, the Japanese brigade's Type 92 infantry guns and the 41 type mountain guns of the wing were also advancing in order to provide fire support, and the Japanese army's tactical level was very good, and after the shelling stopped for three minutes, the soldiers of the second regiment of the supplementary regiment launched an assault after two minutes of deployment in the front-line position.

The Japanese army, which had defeated numerous Anglo-Burmese troops in southern Burma, showed its ferocious fangs with a sense of revenge and contempt for the Chinese army.

……

"All companies are ordered to open fire, and they are not allowed to fire in advance!"

"Whichever turtle grandson dares to put a gun indiscriminately, Lao Tzu will kill whoever he wants!"

"Brothers, hold on!"

The Japanese army was getting closer and closer, and on the first line of positions to supplement the Second Regiment, battalion and company commanders, squad and platoon commanders and veterans were all issuing battle orders, reminding their subordinates in their own ways of speaking not to fire in advance and to fire indiscriminately.

In the second regiment of the supplement, indiscriminate guns and early fire are taboos, Zhang Wei has always demanded that the enemy troops be put close to fire, often emphasizing the shooting discipline of soldiers, under the influence of Zhang Wei, the officers below also attach great importance to this, after the strict control of officers at all levels and the suppression of squad leaders and veterans, no one has fired on the front-line positions so far.

Of course, there were still many soldiers who were nervously shedding cold sweats, and the shouts of the Japanese army stimulated everyone's nerves.

Hundreds of fierce light infantry launched an attack formation, charging with the arrogance of successive victories, and the deterrent effect on the attacked side was indescribable.

The speed of the Japanese attack was very fast, it only took a few minutes, its forward infantry appeared in front of the position of the second regiment, the Japanese soldiers with rifles, bent over and scattered charges, the formation was scattered, and the depth was not shallow, the attack formation looked quite grand, the Japanese troops who rushed to the front were less than a thousand meters away from the first line position.

The commander of the first battalion, Qiu Wei, held the phone tightly, looked at the overwhelming Japanese soldiers, gasping for breath, the Japanese army was indeed excellent in tactics, experienced, the tight organization of the offensive formation and the speed of the charge, so that Qiu Wei felt great pressure, Qiu Wei stared at the Japanese army, the word fire has been held in his mouth, Qiu Wei cheered himself up in his heart, relaxed, while sitting and waiting for the Japanese army to come over.

The officers and men of the 1st Battalion were in exactly the same mood as their battalion commanders, the riflemen, machine gunners, the soldiers of the 60 Mortar Group, the 82 Mortar Group, and the temporarily reinforced flat-firing artillery group, all of whom were in this mood, as were Ye Zhenhua, the commander of the 3rd Battalion, and all the officers and men of the 3rd Battalion on the other side.

Qiu Wei silently read the charging distance of the Japanese striker......

Nine hundred, eight hundred and five, eight hundred, seven hundred and five, seven hundred......

Finally, when Qiu Wei counted to five hundred, he suddenly pulled the field phone over and shouted the order to fire.

"The whole battalion fires!"

……

When the Japanese attacked 500 meters away, Qiu Wei's order to open fire was transmitted to the various infantry companies and firing points through the telephone line of the field telephone, and the 1st and 3rd Battalions of the 2nd Supplementary Regiment, which had been silent for a long time, broke out in an instant, and all kinds of firearms in the front-line positions spat out tongues of fire one after another.

"Put!"

Boom—

The first to project the ammunition was the two-pounder flat-firing gun group located in the center of the first battalion's position, and the two two-pounder flat-firing guns deployed by Zhang Wei on the front line were all concealed in the fort, which was made of logs and steel plates, covered with sandbags, and the top steel plate was additionally tamped with sand, and the overall structure was very strong enough to withstand the direct fire of the Japanese infantry guns and mountain artillery.

The moment Qiu Wei's firing order was issued, the artillery commander in the fort who reacted very quickly gave the order to open the cannon, and with the opening of the artillery commander's password, the shooter who stepped on the pedal pulled the tow rope, and with a bang, the slender gun barrel shook the recoil, and a 40-mm flat-fire shell flew out of the gun chamber.

500 meters away, this flat-fire artillery shell shot straight past, accurately exploded in the crowd of Japanese troops, the 40-millimeter howitzer shrapnel burst open, a large number of steel balls and prefabricated fragments flew in the Japanese shock crowd, scattered, after the explosion of the huge lethal grenade shell, the flesh and blood were all over the sky, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers fell under the smoke of the 40-mm howitzer shotgun, and the same number of Japanese soldiers were hit by the scattered steel balls and fragments hit the non-vital parts of the body, fell to the ground and wailed and rolled.

Stumps and minced flesh littered the ground all around...... This two-pounder flat-fire gun, blackmailed from the British, was one step ahead of other guns and shells, and dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese.

Immediately afterwards, a dense rain of bullets hit the heads of the charging Japanese troops, and the Liao-made Type 14 and 37 flat-fire guns, 82 mortars, Browning large-caliber heavy machine guns, and 60 guns of each company were supplemented by the 1st and 3rd Battalions of the 2nd Regiment, and the light weapons in the hands of the infantry opened fire one after another, forming a dense fire network covering the charging Japanese infantry.

The Japanese infantry was arrogant and fierce, but the sudden burst of firepower, not counting all kinds of guns, there were four 82 mortars, 18 60 mortars, eight Liaozao 37 flat-fire guns, and two two-pounder anti-aircraft guns.

The infantry's light and heavy machine guns and large-caliber heavy machine guns fired fiercely, and a string of 79-step machine guns and 12.7 mm large-caliber heavy machine gun shells opened fire in a cross-trajectory and fired into the gunsmoke.

The sound of artillery rumbled, the guns were dense, and the screams were incessant.

The 1st Brigade of the 112th Wing of the charging 112th Wing was like a rushing bull, crashing headlong into the wall, and only the first round of fire was fired, and the Japanese infantry who rushed to the front lost most of them, and more than half of the Japanese troops of the squadron fell under the rain of bullets and bullets of the 2nd Supplementary Regiment.

At this moment, all the Japanese soldiers who were charging forward hurriedly lay down on the spot to find cover, and looked at the positions that were firing on the opposite side in shock.

This, is it the Chinese army?
