Chapter 477: Changed Tactics
The battle between the small artillery of the Chinese and Japanese began to end, and the six mortars did not pay any casualties, but one of the two infantry guns in the village of Kuhito was knocked out, and seven of the nine grenadiers were also destroyed, and Captain Iijima became extremely angry, and he began to gather two squads of troops to prepare for a counterattack.
It's not that Captain Iijima didn't want to ask for support from Shijiashan's heavy artillery, but this time, because the mortars kept shifting positions, Captain Iijima didn't know how to provide fire to the heavy artillery.
As for the idea of asking for help from the brigade headquarters, Captain Iijima is not out of the question, but the more than 100 Chinese soldiers have not yet attacked him, and when he asks for help at this time, he will inevitably be severely reprimanded.
Four Type 92 heavy machine guns began to shoot frantically, bullets hitting the ground one by one, but the fighters in the tunnel were not affected, they continued to dig.
At this time, a tunnel in the west of the village has been dug less than 200 meters away from the head of the village, and these tunnels are one meter wide and two meters deep, which can provide effective cover.
Outside the village, there are already horizontal and vertical traffic trenches, which are like snakes.
Captain Iijima himself knew that if he didn't stop the excavation of these Chinese soldiers, he was afraid that the other side would dig under his nose.
He couldn't count on the heavy artillery, and now he could only rely on two infantry squads to clear the Chinese soldiers.
Four Type 92 heavy machine guns provided cover, and two infantry squads concentrated and began to attack here in the west of the village, and Captain Iijima intended to deal with the Chinese soldiers in the west of the village first, and then the Chinese soldiers in the rest of the directions.
Captain Iijima's idea was very good, but there were some problems with his implementation.
Because at this time, Sun Weiguo had already come to command outside the village, and hundreds of troops were hidden except for the engineer company digging tunnels.
"The Japanese army is dispatched, they are in the west of the village, Huang Gang, rushed over with the troops, pay attention to one point, the troops should disperse their actions, and the distance between the various combat platoons should be fifty meters."
Sun Weiguo held a telescope to observe, and saw that more than a hundred devil soldiers began to move out from the west end of the village, and he immediately gave an order.
Huang Gang, the commander of the second battalion of the 1st Pre-1st Regiment, nodded, and he immediately rushed over with his troops.
Two mortar squads, two machine gun squads, followed Huang Gang into action, and then they began to deploy.
Six mortars and six heavy machine guns began to be ready for battle, and at the same time, six infantry combat platoons, two machine gun combat platoons, two assault combat platoons, and two sniper combat platoons were deployed to the west of the village under the leadership of Huang Gang.
A distance of at least fifty meters was opened between the platoons, and different weapons began to be erected.
An infantry platoon is an infantry platoon, but these infantry platoons are divided into nine combat groups, and each group is separated from each other.
The machine-gun combat platoon is a machine-gun platoon, and each machine-gun platoon has two reinforced combat groups, each with two Czech-style light machine guns.
The assault platoon was a guard platoon, each with two reinforced assault groups, each with five Thomson submachine guns.
The sniper platoon is a sniper squadron, with two reinforced sniper teams of six snipers in each platoon.
The combat platoons began to be deployed in different positions, and the commander of the second battalion, Huang Gang, held a telescope, and when the Japanese troops left the buildings in the village, Huang Gang gave the order to attack.
Two mortar groups were the first to start firing, and six grenades fired at the Japanese heavy machine guns, and after the Japanese heavy machine gun fire was suppressed, the combat platoons began to fire.
Three Makqin heavy machine guns and three Type 92 heavy machine guns fired at the Japanese soldiers, and one bullet after another quickly fired at the Japanese soldiers, and more than 30 Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded on the spot.
Light machine guns, Type 38 rifles, Mauser sniper rifles, and Type 38 rifles fired at the same time, and bullets shrouded the devil soldiers.
When Captain Iijima, who was hiding in the village to command, heard the gunshots, he realized that the main force of the Chinese troops had arrived, and his face turned pale.
"Contact the brigade headquarters immediately, contact the heavy artillery unit immediately." Captain Iijima immediately shouted loudly.
More than 100 devil soldiers were killed on the spot, and more than 70 people fled into the village in disarray.
The various combat platoons quickly dispersed and transferred, and the more than 200 fighters who had just gathered together disappeared in the blink of an eye.
By the time the Japanese heavy artillery began firing here, the fighters had already moved.
The use of various combat groups for operations does not mean that these combat groups should be dispersed to fight, and when encountering a strong enemy, the officers of the unit can quickly gather them together to fight together.
The devil soldiers in Juren Village paid more than 100 casualties, but the second battle group only suffered more than a dozen casualties here, and this contrast is obvious.
The same troops, the same weapons and equipment, and the different commands of the troop commanders will naturally achieve different results.
"What can the little devil do if he has heavy artillery, as long as our brigade commander is here, even if the little devil is powerful, he is not our opponent."
"It's really strange, the little devil couldn't beat it before, and I didn't know where to hit the little devil, but now it's good, I haven't shot yet, and the devil soldier has been solved."
"The brigade commander is the martial arts star in the sky, where is the little devil is our brigade commander's opponent, this little devil is going to be unlucky, the brigade commander is very resentful."
"Tsk, what did I say, when you encounter a tough devil soldier, you don't need weapon support, as long as you find the brigade commander, all problems will be solved."
The battle was won in the west of the village of Juren Village, and the fighters of the various battle groups were talking and talking, and their faces showed excited expressions.
But how did they know that what Sun Weiguo used was nothing more than the tactics created by the commander of the 115th Division, Lin in the future.
The principle of three fierce, one point and two sides, four groups and one team, three situations and three ways of playing, four fast and one slow.
"Squadron leader, we have lost ninety-two killed, sixteen seriously wounded, two of the four heavy machine guns were destroyed, all two infantry guns were destroyed, eight of the nine light machine guns were destroyed, and seven of the nine grenadiers were destroyed.
A Japanese lieutenant came up to Captain Iijima and said in a solemn tone.
"The tactics of this branch of the army have changed, they are afraid that they will ambush on the road, immediately contact the captain, so that the rescue troops must be extra careful." Captain Iijima reminded that he was aware of the change in the tactics of the Chinese troops.
"Brigade commander, the Japanese army has been reinforced from the east, and there is an infantry squadron." Zhu Jianwei rushed to Sun Weiguo at this time, and he hurriedly reported.
"Concentrate your forces to fight the Japanese reinforcements." Sun Weiguo immediately gave the order.
