Chapter 581: Fierce Battle in Pyongyang II

readx; After Sergeant Li put back on the steel helmet that had been scratched by the bullet, he carefully lay on the bunker and slowly popped his head, this time the bullet finally hit his steel helmet accurately. In the little time it took to www.biquge.info Pen, Fun, and Pavilion, Sergeant Li found that the soldiers were more than ten meters closer, and he was experienced in warfare, and he didn't need any distance counters to roughly estimate the current distance.

After retracting, Sergeant Li said to Lieutenant Pei: "Lieutenant, this time I said that I have come a lot, not a hundred but seventy or eighty, I think it should be a squadron!" ”

Lieutenant Pei also cautiously shrank back from the bunker at this time, and just now he also observed the situation outside through the telescope: "Looking at the density of their troops, the number of people is estimated to be **ten, which is much more than us, this is not easy to do!" ”

"What are you afraid of, one is also a fight, ten are also a fight, and a hundred of them are not the same fight, and I think that the one who came to charge here should also be disabled, otherwise there would not be only these hundred people!" Sergeant Li also knew about the establishment of the army, and knew that a squad of the army was more than 50 people, and a squadron was more than 180 people. The only difference is that the army adopts a two-brigade and four-regiment system, with each division having two brigades and four wings, each wing having three infantry brigades, and each infantry brigade having four infantry squadrons.

Since the Xinhai Revolution, the establishment of the Chinese Army has been a three-regiment system, with each regiment having three battalions. In the first few years, it was also a battalion with four infantry companies, but later after the large-scale deployment of mortars and machine guns, a machine gun company was established, and the number of infantry battalions exceeded 1,000 at one time, and an infantry company was abolished in order to control the size of the battalion. It evolved into today's three infantry companies and one machine gun company.

Compared with the establishment of the army, the battalion-level scale of the army is slightly larger, and the extra is only a few riflemen, in fact, the battalion-level firepower of the Chinese army is to surpass the army, especially the mortar equipment gives China a great advantage in small-scale battles.

Logically speaking, there should be more than 100 infantry squadrons in the Yue Army, but the troops of the Second Army in front of them had been fighting fiercely with the Chinese troops in Dandong a few months ago, and then they were chased and beaten all the way south, and many parts of them were injured a lot.

It's just that the troops on the opposite side are not much, and the troops under Lieutenant Pei are not much, and Lieutenant Pei's troops have also experienced several major battles all the way south, and their subordinates have been wounded and killed, and the armored cluster and the Eighth Army and the Temporary First Corps have also been supplemented by some soldiers when they are resting on the north bank of the Qingchuan River, but they have not been able to restore the platoon under Lieutenant Pei to full strength, and after passing the Qingchuan River, they have also experienced several battles all the way south, and the people under their hands have been killed and wounded four, Up to now, the platoon in Lieutenant Pei's hands has only about 40 people, which is only half of the army on the opposite side.

Fortunately, Lieutenant Pei's first division belonged to the motorized infantry division, and the level of this weaponry was the top in the whole army, and even the 1922 infantry division of the Chinese Army was simplified on the basis of the firepower of the motorized infantry divisions of the first and ninth divisions.

There were only about 40 people in a platoon, but Lieutenant Pei had a 60-millimeter mortar and three light machine guns under his hands.

Seeing that the Yue army was slowly approaching, Lieutenant Pei's order was also conveyed in time: "Don't worry, get close and hit with a machine gun!" ”

At this time, the machine guns supporting the infantry charge in the army also fired, and the number of machine guns in the army was not less than that of the Chinese army, and the light and heavy machine guns were matched, which accompanied the infantry charge of the army with light machine guns. And the mortars, which had been prepared by this time, also opened fire.

Only a few months after the outbreak of the war, the technical soldiers in the Chinese Army, such as gunners and non-commissioned officers, are still the same old men, so the technology of this artillery bombardment is quite good.

"Okay, Lao Pan, your skills are not lazy!" Sergeant Li shouted loudly, and Sergeant Pan, who was dozens of meters away, laughed twice and replied: "Every time I say this, you don't change it!" ”

Sergeant Li said: "Isn't it that I'm afraid that you won't be able to beat it after you change!" ”

Sergeant Pan did not reply again, but took the mortar group to make another transfer, this mortar group just ran away, and soon after several shells fell on the position of the mortar group just now, and this situation neither Sergeant Pan, Sergeant Li nor Lieutenant Pei cared about it, and it was not the first time that such heavy weapons had been exchanged in the battle. The strength of the artillery is still very good, especially after those light mountain artillery come forward to support, they often focus on hitting the heavy machine gun and mortar fire points of the Chinese army, so whether it is a mortar or a heavy machine gun, they are moving their positions after a while, otherwise they will wait to be bombed!

And the same situation also appeared in the opposite army, just when the army shelled their own mortar position is very good, Lieutenant Pei has already used a telescope to observe the opposite army position, when the artillery of the army fired, he immediately wrote down a set of numbers on the paper, and then handed it to a soldier next to him: "Send the artillery position information of the army back to the company headquarters, and let the company apply for artillery support!" ”

The private-class soldier beside him nodded, took the paper marked with the shelling Zhuyuan and bent down and prepared to run back, but as soon as this person got up, suddenly a cannonball fell beside him, and the shock wave of the explosion set off a cloud of smoke and dust, so that Lieutenant Pei not far away was dusty, and wiped the dust on his face with the smell of gunpowder smoke with his sleeve, Lieutenant Pei fixed his eyes, only to see that the private-class soldier had fallen to the ground, one of his thighs had been shattered, and the whole person didn't even twitch. Apparently there was no sound at all.

Lieutenant Pei didn't even know the name of the private, who had been added when he was resting on the north bank of the Qingchuan River, and after spitting, Lieutenant Pei looked to the side again, and then his gaze fell on a small but extremely strong first-class soldier: "Maozi, you go and send the shelling Zhuyuan to the company headquarters!" ”

The private named the cat nodded, and then the cat trotted two steps to the corpse of the private who had no sound, and turned out the paper, which was already stained with a drop of blood, and the cat opened the paper and saw that the blood stained the handwriting, and then folded it again and put it in his pocket, and then trotted back.

After the cat left, within a few minutes, there were a few whistling sounds in the sky, and then there were several explosions from the opposite army's position, and the flames of the explosions were still dazzling and dazzling even in the daytime.

When the artillery was fighting, the infantry on both sides did not stop and wait, and the infantry of the Japanese army was slowly approaching, from 400 meters, to 300 meters, or even closer.

At this time, Lieutenant Pei also picked up a 1916-style rifle, lay on the position and aimed, secretly calculating the distance of the army in his heart.

Closer, closer, Lieutenant Pei seemed to be able to see the fanatical expressions of those soldiers when they charged, and Sergeant Li on the side was already shouting: "Lieutenant, it's almost!" ”

"Lieutenant, it's time to shoot!"

"Lieutenant ......" Just when Sergeant Li was in a hurry, Lieutenant Pei shouted: "Shoot!" Then Lieutenant Pei himself took the lead and shot first, and as the gunshots rang out, a soldier in the distance wielding a saber fell to the ground.

At this time, the gunfire on the position was instantly loud, the crisp horn sound was the figure of the 1916 rifle, and the coherent click was the sound of the 1921 light machine gun.

This 1921 light machine gun is the latest light machine gun developed in the Chinese Army, this light machine gun is not simply an improved version of the 1915 light machine gun, but the Army Armament Department in reference to the US military BAR light machine gun and the British Lewis light machine gun and other countries after the light machine gun, according to the advantages and disadvantages of the above machine gun re-developed, in addition to the focus on the Czech Prague light machine gun, and the Prague light machine gun is the prototype of the ZB26 (Czech-made) light machine gun, of course, In this year, the ZB26 has not yet come out, and the Army Armament Department is not a complete imitation of the Prague Type 1 light machine gun, but redesigned it after referring to some of the mechanisms of this machine gun, for example, the magazine has been increased from 20 to 30 rounds to enhance the fire sustained ability of the light machine gun.

This new machine gun, which refers to many light machine guns at home and abroad, was officially finalized in 1921, and officially entered service with the army after passing the test of the army armament department in the same year, and was used as a replacement machine gun for the 1915 machine gun. The 1915 light machine gun was designed earlier, and to a large extent it referred to the Madsen light machine gun at that time, so it also inherited the shortcomings of high cost and complex structure, and the army was not satisfied with the 1915 light machine gun after it was equipped, so it re-developed the new light machine gun a few years after it was equipped with the 1915 young machine gun, and designed the new light machine gun as a shift machine gun from the beginning.

The sound of the 1921 light machine gun resounded throughout the position, and as the guns rang out, the charging soldiers began to fall one after another, some were hit and fell, while others lay down to avoid bullets. As the firing range was lowered, the bullets began to shoot a little smoke and dust on the ground where the soldiers were hiding.

After suppressing the army in front of him, Lieutenant Pei ordered a halt to the shooting in order to avoid fearless waste of bullets.

After Lieutenant Pei's troops stopped firing, the army resumed the battle with another shouting order, and began to run forward in great strides, and at this time, Lieutenant Pei's troops opened fire again, and the army fell again.

Charge, suppress, and charge again, this is the main chord law on this small battlefield, and as time slowly passes, the charging army has certainly fallen a large number, but Lieutenant Pei's troops have also suffered a lot of damage.

Sergeant Li shrank directly after shooting at a soldier without seeing if he had been hit, and then began to press the bullet magazine, scolding in a low voice while pressing the bullet: "Damn, you little man is really dead, come back, come back and Lao Tzu will send you one by one to see Amaterasu's jumping god!" ”

After the bullets, Sergeant Li once again stretched the gun in his hand out of the bunker, and there was a large corpse of the Yue army on the ground, and then there were more Yue soldiers rushing up, damn, this is no longer a squadron, not to mention more than 200 people, plus those killed and wounded in front, I am afraid there are more than 300 people, Sergeant Li was secretly horrified in his heart and shot continuously, and it didn't take long for the five bullets in the magazine to run out, and after the fight, he shrank back and gasped: "Five bullets are replaced by another one, it's worth it!" ”

And at this time, a messenger came over: "The company has an order, let's retreat to the second line of defense!" ”

Lieutenant Pei next to him didn't hesitate when he heard this: "Machine guns and mortars go first, and with other cover, we will withdraw to the second line of defense!" ”
