7.25 The first battle of the 189th Division

The Fangjiagou area was a salient in the defensive position of the 25th Army on the north bank of the Huai River, which wedged into the defense line of the Japanese 13th Division on the opposite side like a nail. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 In addition to the north and the position of the 536th Regiment of the 99th Division, the Fangjiagou position was connected to the position of the Japanese army on the east, west, and south. The commander of the 13th Division, Lieutenant General Hou Zhoulibing, also took a fancy to Fangjiagou, which was easy to attack and difficult to defend, so every time the "offensive and defensive drill" of the 13th Division would work hard in the Fangjiagou area!

Before the 189th Division came up, several groups of defensive troops had been changed on the Fangjiagou position, and one of the 121st and 187th Divisions had been stationed here. Now, it was Zhang Jing's troops' turn.

The 189th Division, which was short of strength, still formed 4 infantry regiments, according to the tricks that Shen Yuanlong learned from Huang Haoran, each regiment was formed from 4 battalions first, then 3 battalions, 2 battalions, and finally 1 battalion, and now in the 4 regiments of the 189th Division, except for the 709 regiment, the main regiment is a full 4 battalion system, and the 710, 711 and 712 regiments have only 3 battalions and 4 battalions.

According to the suggestion of the 701st Regiment of the 187th Division, which was previously stationed in the Fangjiagou area, Zhang Jing put two battalions on the first line position, the 4th Battalion of the 709th Regiment and the 3rd Battalion of the 710th Regiment. Sun Wanquan, the commander of the 709th Regiment, was an officer transferred from the 139th Division, and several of his battalion commanders were also his old subordinates in the 139th Division. Wu Changgui, the commander of the 710th Regiment, was He Daru's old subordinate who was brought from Hu Zongnan's 1st Army to the 25th Group Army, and the 139th Division and the 1st Army belonged to the Central Army system, so the relationship between Sun Wanquan and Wu Changgui was relatively harmonious.

The 4th Battalion of the 709th Regiment and the 3rd Battalion of the 710th Regiment are also the two most combat-ready battalions of the 189th Division now. As soon as Zhang Jing came up, he ranked his elite at the forefront, hoping to make a good start for the 189th Division.

Troops with a large number of recruits are afraid of losing the battle! If this head is not opened well, the 189th Division is likely to collapse from now on! In Huang Haoran's troops, whether it is replenishment of troops or material distribution, everything depends on your military merits! Zhang Jing didn't want his 189th Division to fall to the bottom as soon as it came up!

The competition within the 25th Army is destined to be fierce! If you lose at the starting line and want to catch up in the future, it will be more difficult than climbing to the sky!

In order to fight this battle well, Zhang Jing strengthened the best equipment in his hands to these two battalions! Now in the 189th Division, only these two battalions have completed the standardization of weapons and equipment.

The 4th Battalion of the 709th Regiment is equipped with British goods returned to the 99th Army by the 58th Division, and the 3rd Battalion of the 710th Regiment has all the Japanese goods in its hands......

Zhang Jing expected that the Japanese should launch an attack at dawn, and he ordered the two battalions on the front-line position to seize the time to rest and prepare for the upcoming bloody battle!

**************************************************

The Japanese troops opposite the Fangjiagou position were the 13th Wing of the 116th Division.

Captain Tsugami Tsugami was reporting his latest discovery to his brigade commander, Major General Tokushige Sawada, on the phone, and Captain Tsugami Tsugami was a little excited, and beside him, stood the three captains of the 116th Wing, Akimi, Hatoyama, and Mitsui Nakasa.

The new discovery of Captain Tian Tianfu is related to the Chinese defenders in the Fangjiagou position. In these two days of tentative attack, Captain Tian Tian Fu found that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese defenders on the opposite side fluctuated very much, and there was no momentum at the beginning of the battle with the 116 Wing, in an attack yesterday evening, a squadron discharged by the Captain Tian Tian Fu almost rushed into the trenches of the Chinese army, if it were not for the sudden arrival of night and the crazy counterattack of the Chinese army, maybe now, the captain of Tian Tian Fu could stand on the land of Fangjiagou and report his results to the commander of the Sawada Dezhong Brigade!

In response to this unusual behavior of the Chinese defenders, Captain Tian Tian Fu made his inference, believing that the 99th Army, the ace of the Chinese army, had suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Nanjing! After the expansion of the 25th Army with new recruits, the combat effectiveness of the 99th Army was seriously diluted! That's why the units of the 25th Army will show uneven combat effectiveness!

At the beginning, Huang Haoran used his few remaining elite troops to suppress the offensive of the Central China Front. This ferocious attack also consumed the last strength of the 25th Army, and now, in fact, there are only some rabble left in the Chinese elite on the opposite side! As long as the Imperial Japanese Army can now deliver a fatal blow to the 25th Army! Then Huang Haoran, the "victorious general" of the Chinese people, will step down from the altar from now on! The 13th Division will also receive a greater honor than the capture of Nanjing!

Captain Tsugashi Tima felt that the brigade commander, Major General Sawada Toshige, could not veto his proposal at all! Take a look at the overwhelming propaganda of the 3rd Division in the Japanese newspapers! The fanatical Japanese even thought that the city of Nanjing was beaten down by Jing Shuxuan alone! The main force of the 13th Division, because it crossed the Yangtze River to attack Pukou in accordance with Matsui Ishone's order, actually ranked at the bottom of the credit book for the capture of Nanjing! The 25th Army, which had now become unprecedentedly weak, was sent to the 13th Division! This is a great opportunity for the 13th Division to show its face!

The three captains, Onimi, Hatoyama, and Mitsui, were obviously thinking the same as Captain Furi Timada, and they also had smug smiles on their faces......

However, the answer of the head of the Sawada Toshige Brigade shocked the captain of the Tsuen Tsugami Timada! The head of the Sawada Toshige Brigade did not take the "big discovery" of Captain Tsugada Fu as a matter at all, and he said it lightly on the phone:

"Timda-kun! You have to understand! Huang Haoran, cunning and cunning! In Songhu! In Nanjing! The 11th Division and the 114th Division also thought that they had seized Huang Haoran's weakness! But how did it end? I think you should be sober! ”

Captain Tian Tian Fu grabbed the microphone and pleaded loudly, his forehead turned red because of the rapid upwelling of blood, but the efforts of Captain Tian Tian Fu were obviously not accepted by the head of the Sawada Dezhong Brigade, and the answer from the telephone receiver was always "No!" "Not approved! ”

Captain Tian Tian Fu suddenly remembered a rumor! After General Matsui Ishine was forced to transfer from the Central China Front, news began to circulate within the Central China Front that Tokyo intended to end the war! Thinking of the performance of the current commander of the Central China Front Army, General Shunroku Hata, and the attitude of the commander of the Sawada Tokushige Brigade on the phone, Captain Tima Fu began to decide that the message was true!

The "anti-war faction" in Japan wants to take away the opportunity of the imperial soldiers to seek honor! And the six generals of Shun Hata are the accomplices of these people!

No wonder Commander Matsui Ishine was transferred back to the country! It's all a conspiracy of the "anti-war faction"!

After finding an imaginary "enemy" for himself, Captain Tima Fu's mood finally stabilized! So he found a reason to end this meaningless phone call, and then Captain Tian Tian Fu summoned his three captains to the front and began to analyze the current "critical situation" for them!

"Gentlemen! The despicable anti-war faction is trying to control His Majesty the Emperor! They want us to collect our troops from China! How could the blood of the warriors of the empire be shed in vain? We should tell His Majesty the Emperor with practical actions! Japan will conquer China! Capture Fangjiagou! Crush the elite 25th Army of the Chinese people! This is the mission given to us by Amaterasu! We want to bring direction to a wavering Japan! ”

"Onboard! Onboard! Neon board! Conquer China completely! ”

The fanaticism of Captain Tim Tian Fu drove the emotions of the three captains of Onimi, Hatoyama and Mitsui, and the wing headquarters of the 116 Wing was hot!

"Gentlemen! At dawn! We're going to get moving! Mitsui Nakasa! Your brigade did a great job yesterday! Today! I'll also make your brigade a pioneer! I am sure that Huang Haoran's troops have turned into a mediocre army after continuous battles! You have to take advantage of the superiority of the Great Japanese Army in shooting accuracy! Suppress the Chinese army first! And then attack! I wish we could have lunch in Fangjiagou! ”

A sickly smile appeared on the face of Captain Mitsui, who had obtained the pioneer position, and Nakasa and Hatoyama Nakasa were full of jealousy!

Their brigade had also fought with Fangjiagou's 25th Army in the past two days, and Onimi Nakasa and Hatoyama Nakasa knew very well that Captain Tiantian Fu's judgment was not wrong! Huang Haoran's 25th Group Army is no longer a strong army that terrifies the Japanese Army! A squadron under Hatoyama Nakasa easily rushed to an area a hundred meters in front of Fangjiagou's position, and there were less than twenty casualties in total!

If the other side was still the 99th Army on the Nanjing battlefield, Hatoyama Nakasa believed that one of his squadrons would have been surrounded by the 99th Army a long time ago, and I am afraid that no one would be able to escape!

The current combat effectiveness of the 25th Army is estimated to be less than 30% of the original 99th Army! Captain Mitsui Dawn will definitely be able to get an excellent performance! Maybe after this battle, Captain Mitsui will be promoted to Army Captain!

Another guy with good luck like Jing Shuxuan! Onimi Nakasa and Hatoyama Nakasa are simply a little envious and crazy!

*************************************************

"Fujikawa-kun, what do you think of those soldiers on the other side? Kondo thinks they're all newbies! I was a little skeptical of his words! Wasn't the predecessor of the 25 Army the 99 Army? That's the trump card of the Shina people! You've also fought with the soldiers on the other side! I'd like to hear what you think! ”

Fujikawa was leaning against the cold and hard trench wall to refuel his pistol, Watanabe Guncho, who belonged to the same squadron as Fujikawa Juncao, squeezed over to ask questions, Fujikawa Juncao raised his head and glanced at Watanabe Juncao, then lowered his head and continued to fiddle with his pistol.

Fujikawa Guncao was a little unaccustomed to "smart people" like Watanabe Guncho, and they always thought that they could survive well on the battlefield with some experience and know-how. Fujikawa Juncao, a veteran, knows very well that those so-called experiences and know-how are all lies!

On the battlefield, you can only rely on the soldiers under your command and the weapons in your hands! People are an uncontrollable factor, but you can control weapons! A well-maintained weapon will save you on the battlefield, and otherwise, it will kill you.......

"Watanabe! If you have time to gossip, you might as well take good care of your weapons! I don't know more than Kondo Juncao......"

After throwing a few cold words to Watanabe, Fujikawa dismantled his southern pistol into parts and placed it on a towel on the ground.

The southern pistol is called the "Wang Ba Box" by the Chinese people. The southern pistol is a standard pistol equipped by the Japanese army, which is widely equipped in the Japanese army, from generals to non-commissioned officers, from the general infantry units of the army to various special forces such as artillery, engineers, and armored troops, as well as all levels of the navy and air force. It can be said that where there is a Japanese army, there is a southern pistol, which has the advantage of fast reaction speed and strong lethality at close range, but its disadvantages are obviously more ......

The first is that the failure rate is too high!

In fact, any pistol will encounter malfunctions, but the failure rate is so high that it is unbearable for southern pistols.

The firing pin design of the southern pistol had serious flaws, it was not hard enough and brittle. In actual combat, the phenomenon of firing pin firing weakness and firing pin breakage frequently occur. Due to the frequent problems with firing pins, the Ministry of War urgently processed a large number of firing pins for southern pistols for the Japanese Army, and proudly designed a place on the holster of southern pistols to put firing pins! What Fujikawa Juncao is doing now is to replace the firing pin for the southern pistol!

Watanabe Juncao next to him has a commendable cheekiness, he did not choose to leave because of Fujikawa Juncao's bad attitude, his squadron will also participate in the attack in the other party's Jiagou area tomorrow, and now Watanabe Juncao urgently needs to take something useful out of Fujikawa Juncao's mouth!

If the people on the other side are really some novices, then Watanabe Juncao can take his subordinates forward bravely tomorrow! If you get the opposite answer from Fujikawa Guncho here, then Watanabe Guncho will come more leisurely tomorrow......

"The designer of this pistol should have been seppuku! Not only is it easy to get stuck, but it often goes off the rails! Mine had sounded on its own during the march! Luckily, it's in a holster! If you pin it to the waistband of your pants like Kondo Guncao, it's dangerous! ”

Watanabe Juncao tried his best to pick some topics that Fujikawa Juncao might be interested in, and his posture was also very low, and the hard work paid off, and Watanabe Juncao's almost approaching method finally got an effect.

"The reason for the jamming is mainly due to the complexity of the structure of the southern pistol! This gun requires relatively strict daily maintenance. If the maintenance is not in place, it is easy to miss the second bullet, which will lead to jamming when shooting! ”

Fujikawa Guncao said as he used the southern pistol parts in his hand to demonstrate Watanabe Guncao, because his pistol was well maintained, so it worked very smoothly, Watanabe Guncao pretended to applaud very much, which made Fujikawa Guncao's attitude towards him obviously softened a lot.

"Technically, the cause of misfire is mainly due to the fact that there is still a round in the chamber after the magazine is withdrawn. If you forget to use manual insurance, it is very easy to misfire and injure people. So when there's no fighting, it's better to drop all the bullets out......"

After discovering that Fujikawa Juncao had an incessant tendency, Watanabe Juncao hurriedly returned to the topic, what he really cared about was the strength of the Chinese defenders on the Fangjiagou position, Watanabe Juncao was not here to listen to Fujikawa Juncao talk about his pistol experience.

"Fujikawa-kun! Do you think those soldiers are really a bunch of novices? If that is the case, why didn't the division commander take the initiative to attack? As far as I know, the dawn attack was carried out only with the participation of our 116th Wing! It's not like you've caught a weak point in the Chinese army......"

Watanabe's words finally looked a little different, and Fujikawa Juncao also had the same question in his heart. However, as a Japanese soldier, Fujikawa Juncao only needs to act according to the orders of his superiors, and managing the dozen or so soldiers under his command is a matter that a military Cao should consider, and as for the higher tactical level, it will naturally be solved by the officers.

"The co-captain arranged it like this, naturally he has a reason! We don't have that much influence! But I can tell you that the soldiers on the other side are really some novices! In the previous attack, I saw with my own eyes that some of the soldiers were so nervous that they couldn't even pull the bolt of their guns, and those grenades that didn't pull the fuse, these should solve Watanabe-kun's doubts! ”

Fujikawa Juncao's words made Watanabe Juncao happy! I didn't expect that this time it really made the 116 United see a big bargain! You must know that the opposite side is the 25th Army! Huang Haoran's troops! Watanabe Juncao secretly said to himself in his heart that he had to run faster when he was going to attack! In this way, you can grab the first credit!

After the capture of Nanjing, the logistics supply of the Central China Front became much better, and Watanabe Juncao could still get a gift like a pack of cigarettes.

The Japanese troops who drove out of Nanjing, who could not have some oil and water in their pockets? Although the 116th Wing failed to enter the urban area of Nanjing, they also shared a lot of "dividends" from the capture of Nanjing.

Fujikawa Guncho glanced at the cigarette brand, then threw the cigarette to his soldiers, and the Japanese soldiers in the trench laughed and lit the cigarette, of course, they did not forget to find a hidden place before.

On a night like this, the light of a cigarette is likely to kill you......

A few minutes later, Fujikawa Juncao's soldiers returned to the trenches one after another, the pack of cigarettes had turned into a crumpled paper ball, Fujikawa Juncao had already given his soldiers time to rest, now, it was time for them to work!

"Check your weapons and ammunition! Oil the rifle! Sharpen your bayonets! Opposite us, there are at least a thousand or more of them! You're going to need your weapons! ”

A bespectacled Japanese soldier had just heard the entire conversation between Fujikawa and Watanabe, and he asked his soldier with some puzzlement:

"Fujikawa Gunca! Aren't the soldiers on the other side all novices? We should have an easy victory, shouldn't we? ”

The words of the glasses hit the minds of the other Japanese soldiers, and their eyes flashed with a beastly light, as if they were not going to capture a position, but to do another massacre!

Fujikawa Gunca's tone became cold again! He's going to break the dreams of these soldiers! So that after the battle at dawn, maybe Fujikawa Guncao will still be able to see most of them!

"A novice's bullet can kill you! Don't run too fast after the attack starts! Remember! The other party is a newbie! Their shots will be very unruly! Previous experience doesn't work! Keep your eyes open! Dodge those bullets! Let the people of Watanabe Guncao rush to the front! And we! Just be the last victor and you're good to go! ”

It is also a kind of luck to be able to follow someone like Fujikawa Guncho......

In another corner of the 116th Wing's forward position, Watanabe Juncao brandished his saber and desperately cheered up his men!

"Warriors of the Imperial Army! Opposite us is a gang of recruits from the China! Their heads will be your rank and honor! Rush up! Kill them! Let's end the myth of Huang Haoran today! ”

"Kill! Kill all those people! ”

The Japanese soldiers, who were instigated by Watanabe Juncao, roared wildly, and their eyes began to be bloodshot! And at this time, Watanabe Juncao stepped aside with a weird smile on his face!

He didn't care about the lives of these soldiers! He just needs these soldiers to send him to a higher position! Even if these dozen or so people can't survive tomorrow, as long as Watanabe Juncao can be the first to rush to the upper family ditch, the rank of second lieutenant will soon hang on his shoulders.

Thank you very much! Fujikawa Guncao! I'll let you enjoy enjoying the wrath of Second Lieutenant Watanabe!

***************************************************

On the opposite side of the 116th Wing of the Japanese Army, the 4th Battalion of the 709th Regiment and the 3rd Battalion of the 710th Regiment were busy in their respective defense areas. Before the Japanese attacked again, the 189th Division had to "rehearse" the earthwork.

Most of the recruits of the 4th and 3rd battalions were peasants. It may be a little cold to let them hold guns, but it is very skillful to let these recruits work the land.

Tools such as shovels and pickaxes flew up and down in the trenches, and according to Zhang Jing's orders, the first thing the 4th and 3rd Battalions did when they opened their positions was to deepen the trenches by one foot! This depth is the data obtained by Zhang Jing after calculating the damage caused by the Japanese artillery bombardment tomorrow!

Zhao Shuigen was an ordinary soldier in the 139th Division, and after coming to the 4th Battalion of the 709th Regiment, he became a platoon commander.

Now he has more than 30 people under his command, most of them recruits. Except for a few squad leaders, no one has ever been on the battlefield. Looking at the new recruits who were busy in the trenches with hoes and shovels, Zhao Shuigen was worried!

The Japanese are hungry wolves! Zhao Shuigen is really afraid that these recruits will pee their pants after the fight! Losing the position is still secondary, if the deployment of the whole division is shaken, then Zhao Shuigen will become a sinner!

For the battle after dawn, Zhao Shuigen has already made arrangements, the three squad leaders under him will each take a few brave recruits to hold the machine gun to form a support point, and the other recruits will wait for the order to shoot freely and carry ammunition, as for whether they can withstand the first round of attacks of the devils, it depends on the light machine guns in the hands of the three squad leaders! As long as the devils are repulsed, there will be new troops coming up to replace them, and if this warm-up exercise is too long, these recruits of the 189th Division will not be able to bear it!

Zhao Shuigen walked back and forth in the trenches, pointing out some mistakes in the soil work of the recruits from time to time! Digging trenches is not digging in your own fields! If there is a slight mistake, it will have to be repaid with flesh and blood!

When Zhao Shuigen walked to the machine-gun position of the first squad, he deliberately stopped to talk to a recruit:

This recruit named Shi Zhuzi has the best training performance in Zhao Shuigen's platoon! Zhao Shuigen has great expectations for the stone pillar! After this battle, as long as Shi Zhuzi's performance is passable, Zhao Shuigen plans to promote him to be a deputy squad leader! It's actually easy to turn a recruit into a veteran, smell some gunsmoke and kill a few devils! A good soldier becomes a type!

"Stone pillars! You're going to have to follow the squad leader closely! You're his ammunition hand! It's up to you whether the light machine gun can be on its own! ”

Listening to Zhao Shuigen's words, Shi Zhuzi raised his head and said "hehe" Zhile, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth! He was born with courage! I am not afraid of Zhao Shuigen and these officers at all.

With a stone pillar of one meter and eight heads, his physical strength and physical fitness are very good, and what is even more rare is that his shooting level is not bad! In Zhao Shuigen's eyes, the stone pillar is simply a baby bump! So he has always loved the stone pillars! The recruits of the whole platoon knew that Shi Zhuzi was going to be an officer sooner or later, so he also liked to ask Shi Zhuzi for advice when he had something, and after a long time, Shi Zhuzi became the "reserve squad leader" in the platoon.

"What are you smirking at here!? When the devil comes up, remember to aim for me and then fight! I've got to put at least one of the bullets down in a row! Now this bullet is precious! Don't bury your head in the face of Lao Tzu! This British rifle has a fast rate of fire! Give me a little leisure! ”

"Yes! Platoon leader! "Got it, Chief!" "Got it!"

The training time is so short that the instructors only care about teaching these recruits practical things, and ignore other things! These recruits can still remember those rules when they are usually free, but when they are busy, they even mess up the title of Zhao Shuigen!

What else can you expect from less than ten days of intensive training?

Zhao Shuigen sighed in his heart, but his mouth did not relax, he slapped his soldiers to cheer him up, seeing that the day was about to dawn, now if he can dig an inch more, he will have an extra chance of winning!

"Brothers! Keep it up! The trenches are dug deep, and the cannons of the little devils are useless! Come! Continue to strengthen the fortifications! ”

Zhao Shuigen saw that a soldier beside him was a little out of strength, so he took the shovel in the soldier's hand, took off the armed belt on his body, and went into battle in person.

The little soldier leaned against the edge of the trench and was dressed in a rough manner, and looking at his ambitious face, he was no more than fifteen or sixteen years old.

"Little Baozi! I have water in my kettle, you drink some ......"

Zhao Shuigen was digging hard while talking to Xiao Bing, Xiao Baozi's full name is Ma Xiaobao, and he will only turn sixteen years old in a few days, and I don't know where this little guy heard the story of the 99th Army fighting devils, and actually ran down from Fuyang, which is still hundreds of kilometers away from Anqing, and Anqing wants to join the army!

Dolls like Ma Xiaobao would have been ineligible for conscription in the 25th Army. But this little guy was really lucky, at that time, the recruitment point of the 99th Army still hung the signboard of the 25th Group Army, and a few people could not be recruited in a day, so the officer at the recruitment point made an exception and accepted Ma Xiaobao, who lied about his age.

Counting Zhao Shuigen's platoon, except for a few squad leaders, Ma Xiaobao's qualifications are actually the oldest! Zhao Shui originally planned to send Ma Xiaobao to the company headquarters as a correspondent, but this kid didn't want to go! also said that he came to the 25th Group Army to follow Commander Huang to fight devils! Never be a messenger!

Zhao Shuigen couldn't screw Ma Xiaobao, so he had to leave him in the platoon.

Ma Xiaobao is still a child after all, his body is not fully developed, his physical strength is the worst in the platoon, and his training performance will naturally not come up. In terms of shooting, Ma Xiaobao has no talent, it is good to have two shots on target when a row of bullets is shot, and he and Shi Zhuzi form a stark contrast among the recruits.

Zhao Shuigen felt that Ma Xiaobao was still a doll, so he also loved him more, but the stubborn Ma Xiaobao didn't accept Zhao Shuigen's love! I hold my strength all day long to compete with the stone pillars! Digging trenches today, Ma Xiaobao issued a war letter to the stone pillar again, and the result was that the stone pillar hadn't sweated much, and Ma Xiaobao was already dying.

Zhao Shuigen saw that Ma Xiaobao was pouting and not moving, knowing that this little guy had a bullish temper again, so he put down the shovel, picked up the armed belt on the ground, untied the kettle on it, opened the lid and stuffed it into Ma Xiaobao's hand.

Ma Xiaobao is not like a stone pillar, he is still a little afraid of Zhao Shuigen. Ma Xiaobao, who was holding the kettle, secretly glanced at Zhao Shuigen's face, Zhao Shuigen deliberately pretended to be angry, and Ma Xiaobao hurriedly lowered his head to drink water.

In fact, how could Zhao Shuigen blame a doll, he saw Ma Xiaobao start to drink water, so he turned around and picked up a shovel and began to continue digging trenches.

"Platoon commander! I.. Am I useless? ”

Ma Xiaobao still has grievances in his heart, today he lost to Shi Zhuzi again, it seems that he really will never be able to win Shi Zhuzi! Ma Xiaobao is now feeling a little frustrated.

Zhao Shuigen smiled at Ma Xiaobao, and then said to Ma Xiaobao: "The strength of the stone pillar is greater than yours!" Even if you eat ten bowls of rice at every meal, it's hard to become like him! It's better to work on something else! Once the devil comes up, you shoot with the stone pillar! As long as you can defeat two devils! I guess I'll be able to win him! ”

No matter how Zhao Shuigen sounded this, it looked like he was coaxing a child! It just so happens that Ma Xiaobao is a child......

After another ten minutes, Zhao Shuigen saw that the depth of the trench reached his requirements, so he ordered his soldiers to stop their earthwork and start resting, it would not be too long before the devil came up, and it was time to recover his strength.

"Little Baozi! I don't have a communicator, will you follow me when the devil comes up? ”

Zhao Shuigen leaned on the trench to check his Mauser pistol, in the 139th Division, Zhao Shuigen used a Thomson submachine gun made in Shanxi, and later others transferred it away, and the gun was left.

His grandma's! I don't know which kid is using Lao Tzu's Thomson now! Cheap him!

Zhao Shuigen thought "viciously", and the hideous expression on his face frightened Ma Xiaobao opposite.

"I... I don't want to be a platoon commander as a correspondent! I told you! Improper messengers! ”

After Ma Xiaobao finished answering, he lowered his head and pressed the bullet into his Lee-Enfield short rifle, and the two five-round magazines on the top of the receiver were quickly filled by him.

The full length of the Lee-Enfield short rifle is only 1130 mm, which is simply designed for dolls like Ma Xiaobao, and Zhao Shuigen, who is the platoon commander, also has one, but he rarely uses it.

Looking at Ma Xiaobao who was fiddling with a rifle, Zhao Shuigen suddenly remembered that his teacher, Huang Haoran, had said something like this, and the soldier picked up the gun and went to fight with the little devil! It's just to let the Chinese dolls live a good life! Damn little Japan! If they hadn't come to China with bayonets, dolls like Ma Xiaobao should have been pampered by their parents' side, but now, Ma Xiaobao is fiddling with a murder weapon opposite Zhao Shuigen!

I really hope that the good days that Commander Huang said will come soon......

In a trance, Zhao Shuigen suddenly heard a rumbling sound in the sky, and he knew that it was the Japanese who fired the cannon!

"Shelling! Enter the anti-artillery hole! Shrink your bodies! Protect your head! If you don't want to die, don't move! If you hit it, you're going to be finished! ”

As soon as Zhao Shuigen's words fell, the first shell exploded on the position! The smell of gunpowder smoke spread rapidly, and the earth shook slightly. Next, there is the second, the third...... Soon, the positions were completely covered by artillery fire!

Ma Xiaobao hugged his head and bit his lip desperately, the Lee Enfield short rifle was thrown at his feet, and Ma Xiaobao, who had never experienced such a scene, only fear was left in his heart!

Zhao Shuigen's vision was completely blocked by the gunsmoke, he couldn't see Ma Xiaobao's current appearance, but Zhao Shuigen felt that Ma Xiaobao must be very scared now, so Zhao Shuigen shouted at the top of his voice:

"Little Baozi! If you're scared, cry! But you have to remember! As soon as the cannon stops, you can't be scared anymore! Otherwise, the little devil will hit you! If you don't dare to crawl out of the anti-artillery hole and shoot at the devil! I'll kill you too! This is the path you have chosen! You have to keep going! ”

Zhao Shuigen didn't know if Ma Xiaobao heard it, and he didn't know if Ma Xiaobao was still alive now, his words were shouted to Ma Xiaobao, and they were also shouted to dozens of recruits in his platoon!

25 Group Army Military Regulations! Fears! No mercy!

*************************************************

"Excellent! Let the artillery keep shooting! Ten minutes later, the artillery fire extended! Mitsui-kun! You will soon be the pride of the 13th Division! ”

In order to witness the great victory of his 116th Wing, Fudashi Tsugashi specially rushed to Mitsui Nakasa's brigade, and appeared in front of Mitsui Nakasa with him, as well as Onimi Nakasa and Hatoyama Nakasa.

Regarding the order given to the artillery by the captain of the Captain of the Tsugashi Tsugaku, both Nakasa and Hatoyama Nakasa were a little disdainful! Wing Captain, this is too partial to the Mitsui team, right? Since they already knew about Fangjiagou's and the strength of the Chinese army was not good, they also let the artillery use such fierce artillery fire to open the way for the Mitsui brigade! Isn't this sending war exploits to Mitsui Nakasa?

The elite of the Chinese army is also very afraid of the artillery fire of the Imperial Japanese Army, not to mention that the 25th Group Army on the opposite side is not yet the elite of the Chinese people, if Huang Haoran's troops are scattered under the fire of the artillery, the Mitsui Brigade will be equivalent to going up directly to receive the Fangjiagou area! It seems that having a good relationship with His Excellency the Wing Captain is the best way to get promoted!

Mitsui Nakasa, who watched the "artillery show", was very excited! Captain Tian Tian Fu is really benevolent to the Mitsui Brigade! Forty-five minutes of artillery preparation! The stocks of shells of the artillery squadron were knocked out at least half! The Mitsui Brigade must take Fangjiagou in one fell swoop this time, so as to repay His Excellency the Captain of Tiantian Fulian!

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander! I've done a thorough deployment! As soon as the artillery fire begins to stretch, my brigade will attack! Three squadron echelon configurations! Take turns attacking! I believe! The imperial elites of the 116th Wing will definitely be able to have breakfast in Fangjiagou! And then there's Cao Laoji! And then there's Guzhen! Xuzhou! Soon the flag of our 13th division will be planted! ”

"Good!" Captain Tima Fu touched his Ren Dan Hu with his hand, and then gave Mitsui Nakasa an encouraging look, and Onimi Nakasa and Hatoyama Nakasa also said a few flattering words hypocritically.

A few minutes later, the order to attack was given, and Fujikawa, Watanabe, and Kondo got orders from their respective squad leaders to attack!

Watanabe and Kondo's group jumped out of the trench almost simultaneously and swooped down on the opposite side with bayonets, while Fujikawa was not so anxious, his group did not rush to the front or drag behind, but was in the middle.

The soldiers under Fujikawa were in loose formation, and there were no bayonets on their rifles, and their steps seemed to be very frequent, and when Watanabe and Kondo's group advanced to less than 200 meters from the position of the 189th Division, Fujikawa Guncao advanced the normal distance!

If it weren't for the fact that Fujikawa Juncao's squadron leader was familiar with his combat style, Fujikawa Juncao would definitely be labeled as afraid of battle.

"Light machine gun! Go inside the crater ahead! Grenadier! Move forward another 50 meters to hide, and the rest of the people find a good shooting position! We're ready to fire! ”

Fujikawa Juncao's eyes were very good, he had already seen the heads of the Chinese army on the position from time to time, which showed that the Japanese artillery had not been able to solve the Chinese on the opposite side! It seems that the trenches of the Chinese army were well dug!

A strong trench means a lot of blood for the attacker! With Watanabe and Kondo Guncao exploring the way ahead, Fujikawa Guncao is in a pretty good mood!

"Smart people"? It's not just a title! At least now Watanabe's performance and his title are completely unworthy!

The short man jumping up and down with a saber in front must be Watanabe Juncao, right? Didn't he know that it would be easy to be a target if he did that?

This cute idiot!

Entering the 150-meter area, the Chinese troops on the Fangjiagou position had not yet opened fire, and almost at the same time, both Watanabe and Kondo had orders to slow down their soldiers!

Either all the people on the position have fled, or there is some conspiracy!

Both Watanabe and Kondo think that the situation they are facing now is the latter!

"Heavy man! Go find your shooting position! Grenadier canisters also go along! Let's get up slowly! ”

When Watanabe Juncao and Kondo Juncao gave the order, the 189th Division on the Fangjiagou position suddenly began to shoot fiercely! It is impossible for the 4th and 3rd battalions to give the Japanese time to adjust! Since the recruit's marksmanship is not good, let's increase the density of firepower!

The situation on Watanabe's side is also much worse than that of Kondo Guncao! They encountered the 4th Battalion of the 709th Regiment, and the Lee-Enfield short rifles equipped with the 4th Battalion had an extremely fast rate of fire, and the dense rain of bullets made Watanabe Juncao suffer a lot! Thank God! The marksmanship of the Chinese defenders is really terrible! However, it is still very unwise to rush up with such dense firepower!

Watanabe chose to lie down and shoot at the Chinese army, while the grenadier was specifically looking for the Chinese army's machine-gun fire point, and Watanabe believed that it would not be long before he would take the initiative in the situation.

The shooting accuracy of the officers and men of the 3rd Battalion of the 710th Regiment is better than that of the 4th Battalion of the 709th Regiment, which is related to the fact that they are equipped with Type 38 rifles.

Although the lethality of the Japanese Type 38 rifle is not ideal, the recoil generated when shooting is very small, which is a good thing for recruits!

However, the use of crooked machine guns is not very optimistic, and this weapon with a failure rate comparable to that of southern pistols has set a record for the failure rate in the hands of recruits of the 3rd Battalion of the 710th Regiment! If it weren't for the relatively large number of equipment, I am afraid that the Japanese army would have rushed into the trenches long ago!

Zhao Shuigen's platoon was in a relatively high position, so when the Japanese artillery fire had just begun to extend, Zhao Shuigen let his soldiers enter the position, according to the original plan, each of the three squad leaders held the Czechs into the machine gun position, Zhao Shuigen took off the Lee-Enfield short rifle on his back and turned over and lay on the edge of the trench.

Ma Xiaobao's performance surprised Zhao Shuigen, his movements were only half a beat slower than Zhao Shuigen, looking at Ma Xiaobao who was lying beside him with a Li-Enfield short rifle, Zhao Shuigen was surprised and delighted!

"Well done! Little Baozi! Yours is there! ”

Ma Xiaobao's whole body was covered with mud and dust, Zhao Shuigen's appearance was not much better, although the Japanese shells failed to hurt them, they put on makeup!

Until Zhao Shuigen pressed the bullet, Ma Xiaobao didn't speak, Zhao Shuigen was worried that Ma Xiaobao was injured, so he put down the rifle and climbed to Ma Xiaobao's side and asked with concern: "What's wrong?" Little Poko? Was it rubbed against the skin of the little devil's cannonball? ”

"No.. It's okay! Platoon leader! I'm good! It's just a heartbeat......"

Zhao Shuigen was afraid that Ma Xiaobao didn't tell the truth, so he dragged Ma Xiaobao into the trench and wanted to check it well, who knew that Ma Xiaobao was actually struggling desperately, and kept his head down to prevent Zhao Shuigen from seeing!

Could it be that it hurts his face? Zhao Shuigen was anxious, clamped Ma Xiaobao with his arm, and then twisted his head!

Zhao Shuigen took a closer look, and didn't find any injuries on Ma Xiaobao's face, but saw a pair of red and swollen eyes like rotten peaches!

There are still two traces of tears washed out of Ma Xiaobao's face!

This kid was originally afraid that Zhao Shuigen would know that he was crying.......

Zhao Shuigen let go of Ma Xiaobao, and then told Ma Xiaobao with a smile that it would be good to have such a performance on the battlefield for the first time! Back then, Zhao Shuigen also had a brother who urinated directly in the crotch of his pants.

Who is not afraid of death? It's all about letting the little devils force this part! I can't take care of it!

Ma Xiaobao rubbed his sleeve on his face, then turned over and hugged his rifle tightly, and Zhao Shuigen also climbed to his place, staring at the Japanese devil who was approaching step by step in the distance.

"Platoon commander! Platoon leader! ”

"What's the matter!? Didn't you follow the squad leader? It's important to protect the machine gun! What are you doing here!? ”

A series of hurried voices came from the depths of the trench, Zhao Shuigen turned his head, and saw that it was the backbone of the recruits who were calling him, Zhao Shuigen was very annoyed that his order was not carried out, so he did not angrily question his recruit!

"Platoon commander! It was the squad leader who asked me to come! The stone pillar is dizzy! Why can't you wake up all night! The first squad leader asked me to ask you what to do?! ”

"What? Stone Pillar is wounded? Is it heavy or not? Don't hurry up and send it back! Do you still need to ask me about this?! Lower your brat's head! Aren't you afraid that the Japanese will target you!? ”

Ma Xiaobao was fine just now, and the stone pillar was in trouble again, and Zhao Shuigen felt that his luck in this battle was not very good!

"Not hurt! Platoon leader! It's the stone pillar that scares me out! There was a brother who had his leg broken by a shell, and the stone pillar died when he saw blood! Snow white face! I can't wake up if I pinch it!! This uninjured person is also sent to the back? ”

Zhao Shuigen is very clear this time! All of a sudden, his head became two big!

Damn! It's actually an embroidered pillow! The number one place on this training ground is really uncountable!

Zhao Shuigen glanced at Ma Xiaobao who was lying not far away, and then thought of the stone pillar that fainted in the trench, he was immediately on fire!

"Throw that dog in the bomb hole! Wait for him to wake up and let him reload the empty magazine! Carry the ammo box! Lao Tzu now has no manpower to send him this big body in the back! ”

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. These two sentences should be Zhao Shuigen's mood at the moment......
