Chapter 1011 The unlucky Shan County has a friend
This is completely no wonder to others, you can only blame your own weapons are too inferior, the range of the smoothbore gun is only about half of the rifled running range, people can easily hit the Japanese artillery position, but the Japanese artillery can only waste shells in the middle of the mountain, the unlucky Japanese army finally saw how cruel the real modern firearms war is!
Okubo Ritsu was directly desperate, without the help of artillery, then these troops of his own are even more hopeless, what is the use of more troops? There is simply no way to stop the opponent's offensive!
In four hours, the artillery regiment of the People's Army launched a fierce artillery bombardment down the hill for four hours, firing six or seven thousand shells alone!
The entire Japanese position was completely exposed to the fire of the artillery regiment, and it was riddled with holes, and the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties, but the 40,000 or 50,000 Japanese troops naturally would not collapse directly so quickly, not to mention that this was still a descendant army established by Emperor Meiji, and the fighting spirit was still there.

"Dajiu-kun, we can't be beaten passively like this, if we continue like this, sooner or later, one day, we will be killed by people's shells! We must attack, attack! ”
Okubo Ritsu's adjutant Nagayama Aritomo shouted.
Okubo Ritsu glared at Yama Prefecture Youpeng fiercely, and shouted: "I also know that it is not okay to be beaten passively like this, but we can just launch an attack?" You must know that the opponent occupies an absolute geographical advantage, and we can only die faster when we launch a back attack! ”
Shan County Youpeng said in a deep voice: "Da Jiujun, even if we die faster, we must attack, if we don't attack again, our morale will be more and more low, and in less than a day, we don't even have the courage to attack!" Oku-kun! ”
Youpeng in Shan County is right, even if the army can fight again, under the protection of the lack of effective fortifications, it will be bombarded by the opponent's artillery for a day, and it will be blown up in horror and completely lose the courage to charge!
Okubo Ritsu gritted his teeth, he also knew that there was some truth in what Yama Prefecture Youpeng said.
"Shanxi, since that's the case, then let you lead three wings and launch an attack straight towards Yuzaisuo Mountain, do you dare?"
"Hay! Dajiujun, for the glory of the empire, Shan County is willing to die! ”
"Okay, in that case, mobilize the Sakata United, Yamashita United, Flowing Water United, and Yamada United, and the four wings will be thrown into the attack together to attack the left flank of the Shina people with all their might!"
Okubo gave the order to charge.
The young Shan County Youpeng only saw his own problems clearly, but did not see the reality of the People's Army on the mountain, and at the most unfortunate time, he chose to attack the mountain, and the four wings of six or seven thousand men launched an attack on the left flank of the People's Army at the same time.
At this time, it was precisely when Duan Zhiqiang made adjustments, the large-scale shelling lasted for four hours, Duan Zhiqiang thought that it was the time for the heavy machine gun battalion to exert its might, and the left and right wings, each side was equipped with a heavy machine gun battalion, adding up to sixty Gatling heavy machine guns, and they fired at the bottom of the mountain together!
After the heavy machine gun attack, it was the army that began to launch a breakthrough!
Youpeng of Shan County led four wings had just rushed out of the position, and before they came to the foot of the mountain, a heavy machine gun battalion and more than 30 Green guns let out a dense roar, shaking the heavens and the earth, and the momentum was not inferior to that of the artillery regiment!
The unprepared four coalition troops of the Japanese army were thus exposed to the strafing of heavy machine guns, more than 30 Green guns, one for each twenty meters, fully wrapped the entire left flank position, bullets rained down, and the muzzles of the heavy machine guns continued to spit out tongues of fire, like a death sickle, and began to harvest the lives of the Japanese soldiers!
The Japanese army was like leeks, planted stubble, and the friends of the mountain county behind were extremely angry and let out a desperate roar!
"Yaga, Yaga! Damn heavy machine guns! ”
A little mistake by Youpeng in Shan County sent a thousand people to hell, and the speed of the Japanese army's entry into hell did not slow down in the slightest. This guy is the most ruthless character among the young generation of generals, and the most disciplined!
"Yaga! Order, scattered charges, scattered charges, avoid the heavy machine-gun fire of the China! ”
There are friends in Shanxian County who hurriedly responded, but how to disperse? On this hillside, that is, five or six hundred meters wide and narrow, six or seven thousand people launched an attack, the offensive formation was too dense, and the entire hillside was covered by heavy machine guns, and there were not even a few dead ends!
Youpeng in Shan County could only watch as waves of Japanese soldiers were beaten into a sieve and fell to the ground!
In just a quarter of an hour, in a quarter of an hour, the Japanese casualties exceeded 2,000, and the hillside was full of dead Japanese soldiers, and the great fear made the Japanese army collapse again.
The first counterattack charge of the Japanese army was completely crushed in this way!
"Yaga!"
As soon as Youpeng returned to the position, Dabo Jiulitong gave Youpeng a loud neck crutch to Youpeng, and beat Youpeng in Shan County three times in the same place, almost discounting his neck!
"Damn it, Yamasan, that's your plan of attack? In less than half an hour, you inflicted three thousand casualties on our empire! Damn it! ”
Okubo Ritsu roared.
Youpeng in Shanxian had a red face, and said strongly: "Dajiujun, my judgment is correct, but I didn't expect that the people of Zhina still have so many heavy machine guns, damn it, I ask to attack again!" ”
Still going to attack?
Okubo is so angry that he wants to kill!
"How else are you going to attack? Were you able to break through the opponent's heavy machine gun defenses? ”
Okubo growled.
"Cavalry, use cavalry!"
Shan County Youpeng said fiercely: "Dajiujun, we can only use cavalry now, and we can attack the opponent's defense line at the speed of cavalry, I think we will be able to succeed!" ”
Okubo Litsu was silent when he heard this, the cavalry, yes, he has a force pressed behind, that is the family foundation that His Majesty the Emperor has worked hard to accumulate, with a total strength of 5,000 people, however, there are less than 3,000 cavalry who followed him to the Jade Zaizoso Mountain, and the other cavalry are not scattered all over Japan, and there is no time to return to Kyoto, Guo Ye left Japan with nearly zero time to prepare, and the Minister in China Fitley completely messed up this matter.
This is the only thing he can rely on, if the cavalry loses again, then there will be no barrier, but the trump card will always be shown, if it is not shown at this time, it is difficult to say whether there is a chance to use it in the future!
"Good!"
Okubo also knows that there are not many opportunities, if he can't suppress the opponent's indiscriminate bombardment, then the Japanese army will have to completely collapse in a few days, this is the main elite of the empire!
"Order, Chief of Staff Cavalry Wing Commander Oyama Iwa and Autumn Valley, lead the cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the enemy's left flank again, and be sure to destroy the enemy's heavy machine gun position!"
