Section 39 Battle of Dongguan (5)
Coupled with the ambush just now, Zhuang Jihua fought with Chen Jun twice, one attack and one ambush, Chen Jun's performance made Zhuang Jihua feel that it was not as good as being famous, but this attack made Zhuang Jihua realize that Chen Jun's combat effectiveness was indeed not weak.
Under the command of the officer, the soldiers of the Chen army were quite good at making use of the terrain, rolling or crawling along the terrain, and slowly advanced to a place 70 or 80 meters away from the position of the Seventh Company.
The soldiers of the Seventh Company are essentially recruits, and the first two battles were all tailwind battles, and they were over as soon as they rushed, and before they had time to feel the fear, the battle was over, and now they were a little panicked when they were stalemate, and the guns were not so accurate. The enemy slowly advanced to a place of more than fifty meters, the bullets hit the fortifications and sent out a puff of smoke, and the soldiers of the seventh company began to show a slight scratch, Cao Yuan felt the fear of the soldiers, and he walked around the position to boost morale.
Zhuang Jihua also noticed the soldier's uneasiness, but he didn't move, but just shouted loudly to the soldier: "Just now the dog ran away, Lao Tzu hasn't enjoyed it yet, now it's okay, the dog said it was sent to the door." Brothers, be careful, and try to send them back to their hometown with a shot, otherwise they will run away again, and Lao Tzu will not have the strength to chase them. ”
A soldier shouted: "Company commander, look at it, make sure to shoot them one at a time, and send them back to their hometown." ”
"Zhang Sanwa, don't blow it, you dog, you want to fool Lao Tzu, no way. One shot doesn't work, two shots, two shots don't work, three shots. There was only one that was not allowed to let them run. Zhuang Jihua said with a smile.
Zhang Sanwa didn't answer, took a look, "touched", an enemy on the opposite side struggled twice and didn't move, Zhang Sanwa pulled the bolt, retracted, released, loaded, another shot, and another enemy on the opposite side lay down. "Another one." The soldier next to him helped Zhang Sanwa count.
"Three." "Four", Zhang Sanwa fired five shots in a row, and five people fell on the opposite side, and the two soldiers next to him stopped shooting, helping him count and indicate the target.
Hey, this kid is still a sharpshooter, Zhuang Jihua was a little surprised, why didn't he find out before? In fact, this can't be blamed on him, during training, these soldiers also hit the target three times, a total of only 12 bullets, the first target shooting of the company's best performance among the ten soldiers did not have Zhang Sanwa's name at all, the third time Zhang Sanwa's results entered the top five, not the best. I didn't expect this kid to break out today.
"Good job, dog, good fight, I'll give you credit when I go back." Zhuang Jihua shouted.
Zhuang Jihua's laughter and scolding and Zhang Sanwa's sharpshooter calmed the soldiers down again and continued to shoot at the enemy. Most of the soldiers of Chen's army were veterans, and when they saw that the bullets of the seventh company were dense again, they retreated.
Zhuang Jihua saw that the position on this side had stabilized, so he said to Cao Yuan: "I'll go to the second row of positions to have a look." After speaking, he ran to the right flank with the heralds, and Song Xi honestly commanded the soldiers to build fortifications, and when he saw Zhuang Jihua coming, he greeted him.
"How's it going on your side?" Zhuang Jihua has no time to talk nonsense.
"It's okay, it's just that there are fewer people." Song Xilian accompanied Zhuang Jihua and said as he walked.
"What about casualties?" "One person was killed and six were wounded, all of them lightly."
The position of the second row is not big, Zhuang Jihua didn't spend much time walking along the position, he looked outside, and said to Song Xilian: "You have to pay attention to the flanks, the opposite side is full of old oils, the front is not good, it will definitely take the flanks, there is a mountain over there, Hu Zongnan can provide cover, there was no gun on the mountain just now, Hu Zongnan calmed down, well done." You also have a mountain on your side, but we have no soldiers, pay attention, the enemy is likely to touch along the mountainside, don't think that there is a clearing and there is time to arrange, the battle is fierce, you can't take care of it. ”
"Manpower, there is no manpower yet, it will depend on how many people Huang Mingcheng can find later. I'll give it to you first. ”
"Look, you can put two surveillance posts on that rooftop." Zhuang Jihua pointed to a wooden house on the edge of the town, which happened to monitor a section of the mountainside on the second row.
The two were discussing when they suddenly heard a long "boom", and then heard an explosion, the two looked at each other, and suddenly said at the same time: "They have artillery." ”
"Concealment. Take cover. Song Xilian shouted loudly.
Zhuang Jihua ran to the right flank as soon as he slipped away, and Du Yuming, the platoon commander of the third platoon, was sent by him to train his workers, and he had to take his place to command. Du Yuming was very reluctant to go, but Zhuang Jihua resolutely refused to let him stay, in fact, Zhuang Jihua was also worried in his heart, if he defeated the three [***] famous generals in this battle, how to explain this, how to keep one.
When he ran to the third platoon, Cao Yuan had already commanded the third platoon to evacuate, and the evacuation of the anti-artillery during the enemy's artillery bombardment was learned by Zhuang Jihua from the previous life, and it was added during training, leaving a few people in front to observe the enemy's situation. The enemy's artillery kicked up a puff of smoke in the forward positions, and after breaking down two fortifications, it stopped, and there was no extended firing.
"The enemy is coming." The observation post shouted. Three platoons of soldiers immediately rushed to the forward position. At this time, Huang Mingcheng ran up with someone.
"What are you running here for? Go down! Zhuang Jihua yelled at him.
"I'll see if there's anything else I need to do." Huang Mingcheng said.
"No, I have no one to protect you." Zhuang Jihua said angrily, and suddenly wanted to ask: "How many people have you found?" ”
"Eighty-two, training in the back." Huang Mingcheng didn't care. "I sent someone to find the comrades of the peasant association and asked them to come too."
"Good. Zhuang Jihua couldn't take care of it at this time, the enemy was really moving this time, and the black pressure on the opposite side was pressed again, and there were three or four hundred people rushing to this side. This time, Zhuang Jihua gave the order to shoot when the enemy was about 200 meters away.
After a row of guns, five or six people fell on the opposite side; However, this time the enemy did not stop, ran forward quickly, and soon reached 150 meters, 100 meters, after entering 100 meters, the accuracy of the soldiers of the seventh company of shooting improved, each platoon of guns can knock down more than a dozen enemies, the threat of machine guns is also greater, the enemy has fallen down and launched a confrontation with the seventh company, the enemy officers shouted loudly in the ranks to boost morale.
Under the coercion of the officer, the enemy soldiers began to attack again, 70 meters, 50 meters, the bullets that came gradually increased, and the accuracy also increased, from time to time bullets flew by the side, Zhuang Jihua shouted: "Grenade preparation." "The soldiers all pulled out their grenades.
"Hit the grenade." Zhuang Jihua took the lead in throwing a grenade, followed by dozens of grenades thrown into the enemy group, the explosion stirred up a lot of smoke, the enemy in the vicinity suffered great casualties, had to retreat, the enemy officer shouted loudly, and after the rear overseer team shot and killed a few soldiers who ran in front, the enemy soldiers began to rush towards the seventh company again.
"Zhang Sanwa," Zhuang Jihua ran to Zhang Sanwa's side and said to him, "Hit their officers first." "Yes. Captain. Zhang Sanwa agreed, and looked for the enemy officer in the enemy group.
Zhuang Jihua found that the enemy rarely fired before entering 150 meters, and the 100-meter distance was average, but it was very fierce at 50 or 60 meters.
According to this discovery, Zhuang Jihua began to organize sharpshooters like Zhang Sanwa to shoot when he was 200 meters away, and their guns were almost impossible to shoot within 200 meters, and the damage to the enemy was greater than that of the platoon guns.
After several officers were killed, the enemy stopped at a distance of 150 meters, saw the attack and stopped, and rushed out of the enemy position An officer rushed into the enemy group in a serpentine route, grabbed the flag from the hands of the flag bearers, and rushed towards the seventh company with a shout, led by him, the soldiers of the Chen army shouted and charged.
"Grenades", another few dozen grenades were thrown, a strong explosion forced the enemy back, and after the smoke disappeared, the enemy officer raised his flag and attacked again, but this time he was not so lucky, several bullets hit him almost simultaneously.
The attack momentum of the Chen army soldiers was temporarily suppressed, and at this moment, there was a gunshot on the left, and a Chen army moved from the flank, and was hit by Hu Zongnan's platoon on the mountain, at this time the Chen army blew the charge horn, and more than 100 people poured out from the Chen army's position.
This Chen army and the Chen army in front of the position converged and pressed towards the Seventh Company together. "Grenade! Hand grenade! Zhuang Jihua was a little anxious, and the soldiers of the seventh company desperately threw grenades, and the bursts of explosions blocked the enemy's charge. But instead of retreating, the enemy lay down on the spot and waited for the smoke to clear, and then rushed up again.
"On the bayonet", Cao Yuan roared, Zhuang Jihua glared at Cao Yuan angrily when he heard this, but he couldn't change Cao Yuan's order, because changing the order at this time might cause confusion among the soldiers.
Zhuang Jihua didn't want to fight bayonets, the enemy was ten times as many as them, and the losses of bayonet personnel would be very large.
The soldiers of the seventh company put on their bayonets, Cao Yuan killed them, and took the lead in rushing out of the fortifications, colliding with Chen Jun head-on, Zhuang Jihua raised his shell gun and rushed to fight, and the enemy who collided did not have a chance to stab, and several soldiers who followed him formed a protective circle around him.
The soldiers of the Seventh Company fought into the enemy group with their bright bayonets, and the shell guns held by the officers of the teaching regiment were vividly displayed at this time, and in an instant, more than 10 Chen soldiers fell. The assassination of the Seventh Company does not focus on one-on-one solo fighting, but team assassination, where two or three or three or five soldiers automatically form a small team and can be defeated even against opponents who outnumber them. Zhuang Jihua's emphasis on team fighting exerted its might, and even if Chen Jun wanted to kill a team composed of two soldiers of the Seventh Company, he would have to pay the price of two or three people, and when he faced a small team of three or five people, seven or eight dead and wounded people might not necessarily be able to destroy the small team.
The more Chen Jun fights, the more chilling he becomes, the confidence of the Seventh Company is more and more full, and there are actually sixty or seventy people on the battlefield who are pressed by two or three hundred people to fight, and an officer of the Chen Army is angry, sacrificing his life to kill and break up the two Seventh Company teams, but he was immediately targeted by Tang Qijun, Tang Qijun was two shots at him, the officer stared at Tang Qijun unwillingly, and several soldiers who followed the officer immediately rushed to Tang Qijun, Tang Qijun heard a hollow sound when he shot again, the bullet was finished, he just pulled out the command knife, and a bayonet had been killed to his chest, The soldier next to him helped him block the bayonet, but another enemy took the opportunity to stab the soldier, but was stopped by another bayonet, Tang Qijun steadied his mind, held the knife with both hands, and took advantage of the enemy's gun to be broken, the gun stepped forward, and split the enemy's head with a knife, and then turned the knife and cut down another one, forming a small team with Tang Qijun as the center.
The soldiers of the Chen army finally couldn't hold it anymore, and slowly turned from retreat to fleeing, the brave officers had died in battle, and the unbrave ones ran in front of the soldiers.
Zhuang Jihua did not order the pursuit but took advantage of the good situation, this charge killed more than 10 people in the seventh company, and the enemy left more than 100 corpses, although the battle damage ratio was as high as 1:10, but Zhuang Jihua still couldn't afford to pay. So he quickly gathered his troops and retreated back to the town.
