"Alas!" The townsfolk sighed thoughtfully while reinforcing the fortifications that had not yet been built.

It was a little strange to pass by Xiao Zhejiang next to him.

"Seventh squad leader!" Xiao Zhejiang put the ammunition box on his shoulder on the ground, grabbed the towel hanging around his neck and wiped his sweat, and asked his fellow villagers: "Didn't we win the battle?" Why are you still sighing?! ”

"It's because I won the battle that I sighed!" The townsfolk replied.

"That's weird!" The scoundrel, who was fiddling with a machine gun, turned his head and asked, "Do you still want to lose the battle?" Is it because it's not long enough or what's wrong? ”

"How can it?" The fellow villagers skillfully patted the new soil in front of the trench with a sapper shovel, and replied without looking back: "I want to live a few more years!" But do you want to ...... Why can our engineer regiment fight devils on the battlefield? ”

"Needless to say!" Xiao Zhejiang took the kettle and drank a few sips, wiped his mouth and said, "Our engineer regiment can fight!" ”

"Can the Engineer Regiment fight? Can there be 200 divisions and new 22 divisions to fight? The fellow villager thrust the sapper shovel into the ground, turned his head and said: "There are so many main forces, and the training and quality of our engineer regiment can't catch up, so why is our engineer regiment always winning battles?" ”

"This ......" Xiao Zhejiang was dumbfounded by the question: "Then why do you say it?" ”

"Being able to fight is part of it, and so is the equipment of the British!" The hooligan slapped the machine gun in his hand and loaded a drum that had just been filled with bullets: "Look at this thing, our machine gun can only hold thirty rounds of ammunition in one magazine, and this guy can load a hundred rounds at once......"

It was a Bren machine gun requisitioned from the British in the Ringanqiang oil field, equipped with several drums that could hold 100 rounds, and the firepower was instantly much stronger.

But in fact, this thing is not suitable for the domestic battlefield, and the ammunition supply can't keep up...... One drum can hold a hundred rounds, so what about other machine guns?

"So!" In the end, the countryman concluded: "I was thinking just now, what are the British doing here?" Even if they don't fight, they will give the equipment to our troops as soon as possible, and after they have equipment and ammunition, our engineer regiment will be able to win the battle, so what do you need to say about the main force? It's a big deal, let's return the equipment to the British after we beat the devil! It's not going to be as ...... as it is now."

If the British were willing to actively cooperate with China from the beginning, then the Japanese army might not have had a chance to gain a foothold in Burma at all, and in Tonggu it should have been counterattacked by the Chinese army and driven into the sea, so there would be no need to sacrifice so many soldiers for so long.

Even China and Britain can agree in advance: after defeating the Japanese army, China will not compete with Britain for colonies, and the equipment can be returned to Britain...... It's a win-win.

But the British lived in the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, always thinking that the Chinese would rob him of the colony, so they delayed the war again and again, and even did not hesitate to make trouble from it, and finally turned this war with a great chance of victory into a bad war!

After a long time, the old squad leader said earnestly: "Look at the point, brothers, things are not as simple as we think, and the peak has its own reason!" ”

Zhang Chi couldn't help but smile bitterly, and now he can only comfort himself like this.

"Silence, silence......" The demon head who was dozens of meters away shouted at the soldiers.

Although the soldiers did not know what was going on, they all obeyed the order and closed their mouths and stopped what they were doing.

After this stop, I really heard a "rumbling" sound in the air, and the old squad leader squinted into the air with his hand blocking the sunlight for a while, and then shouted nervously at the devil: "Deputy company commander, it's the devil's plane, there are more than 20 planes!" ”

"Get in the cat's ear hole!" The Adversary screamed.

Before the words fell, the whistling sound of cannonballs was heard in the air, and the devil's cannonballs followed.

Zhang Chi hurriedly put away the rifle and retracted into the cat's ear hole behind him.

This cat's ear piercing was built on the inside of the trench, and it is the experience that the soldiers summed up when dealing with the Japanese army on the battlefield...... The Chinese army is not as well equipped as the Japanese army, and it is always bombed on the battlefield without the power to fight back, so in this case it has to toss some simple and practical things to protect itself.

Cat ear piercing is one of them.

If the protection is only a trench, it can indeed reduce casualties to a large extent. But the protection of trenches is sometimes not so useful, because curved guns such as mortars and howitzers often hit shells directly into the trenches due to their ballistic curves and the accuracy of the devils. As soon as the shell hit the trench, it was terrible, the trench was a relatively closed space, and there were many soldiers hiding in it, and it was impossible to know how many people would be killed when a shell exploded inside.

The other point is the devil's plane...... The plane is flying in the sky, and the flying skills of the devil pilots are also quite good, they tend to observe the trend of the trench in the air, and then dive down along this trend to strafe or drop bombs, so the bullets and bombs are like eyes poured into the trenches, often causing great casualties to the Chinese army, and the Japanese army will take advantage of the Chinese army's large number of casualties when there is a gap in the defense line to launch a charge.

This method has been tried and tested many times in China, and I don't know how many defense lines I have helped the Japanese army overcome.

In fact, what the soldiers are more afraid of is not these, and the veterans who often fight with the Japanese army know that although the little devils have also experienced harm when they hit the planes, these bullets and shells that can enter the trenches are a few after all, and there are not many planes that the Japanese army can put into the battlefield.

Even more terrifying were the grenadiers in the hands of their infantry...... The grenadier is simply a small mortar with a range of about 200 meters.

But...... The biggest danger of this thing is the large number: the Japanese army is generally equipped with three guns per squad (54 people), each of which can fire 25 rounds per minute, and the ammunition it fires is still the grenades carried by the devils.

This is equivalent to the devil can throw a large number of grenades into the trenches of the Chinese army in a short period of time from a distance of 200 meters, while the Chinese army can only hide in the trenches and be bombed!

Later, it was bombed a lot, and the soldiers gradually found a better way to protect themselves from the blood and the lessons of life...... Cat ear piercing!
