Chapter Ninety-Two: Bullet Frenzy

Under the vigorous reprimand of the officers, the soldiers of the Kawada Brigade finally looked a little more energetic, and after a hurried breakfast, the Kawada Brigade that was preparing to attack moved to a few hundred meters away from Mike and them and began to arrange their troops. Mike, who had a calm face, had already seen the movements of the Japanese army in the binoculars, and yesterday he had learned from Tang Cheng that the two 75 mountain guns of the Japanese army had been destroyed, and the Japanese army, which had no heavy firepower, wanted to break through its own defense line in the open terrain of the red clay slope, which was simply a fool's dream.

According to the regular formation of the Japanese infantry, an infantry brigade generally ranges from 1,300 to 1,500 people, and the Japanese infantry brigade generally consists of three or four infantry squadrons and a machine gun squadron. Some infantry brigades will also have an artillery squad of about 50 people, which will be equipped with two Type 92 infantry guns, and some infantry brigades will have an artillery squadron of more than 120 people, and will be equipped with two 75 mountain guns or field guns.

Mike already knew that Tangcheng had destroyed the 2 75 mountain guns of this Japanese brigade, so he could roughly judge the strength of this Japanese brigade, although the opponent's strength was several times his own, but Mike was not afraid of the other party. The Kawada Brigade looked very eager to break the enemy in one fell swoop, and under the cover of several small-caliber mortars, the Japanese soldiers of the two squads of Moyo covered each other and quickly attacked forward.

As the Japanese mortars fired, fireworks rose from Mike's position one after another, and two squads of Japanese soldiers opened up the straggler formation and approached. "Bring them close before firing, no one is allowed to fire in advance without my orders." Mike, who was carrying a Garand rifle, walked through the trenches, shouting a few times from time to time to cheer up the soldiers in the trenches, and seeing that the approaching Japanese troops were less than 200 meters away from the position, Mike ordered the snipers to fire at will to suppress the Japanese troops.

The distance of 200 meters is like letting a marksman complete an extremely ordinary close-range shooting training for a sniper, and the sound of ping-pong gunfire rang out one after another, and the already sparse skirmish line of the Japanese army became even more sparse. "Nani? The people of China have sharpshooters, open cannons, fire cannons to suppress their sharpshooters. Seeing that the forward attacking the enemy line was suppressed by the gunfire and could not move, the Japanese officer, who could only fight, became mad and immediately ordered the mortar to continue to bombard the enemy position, trying to suppress Mike's snipers with mortars.

The Japanese mortars were very accurate, and there were already snipers who had been killed or wounded, and the remaining snipers had to fire two shots and change places, which also made the pressure on the two Japanese striker squads sharply reduced. The Japanese soldiers shouted that the Japanese soldiers rushed forward with the board load, and the bullets fired from their guns finally fell on Mike's position, and the Japanese advance entered the position at a distance of 100 meters, and Mike ordered all the riflemen to fire at will, and before the Japanese army did not move further, Mike did not plan to use his machine gun fire.

American-style semi-automatic firearms once again showed the Japanese army their strong lethality, and in the face of the uninterrupted and powerful firepower of the soldiers of the direct company, the bolt-action rifles in the hands of the Japanese soldiers were obviously at a disadvantage. The dense barrage flew out of the trenches, flew over the open ground between the two sides, and finally penetrated into the bodies of the Japanese soldiers, and in just a few minutes of firefighting, the two forward squads sent by the Japanese army suffered more than half of the casualties. The remaining Japanese soldiers could only use the corpses of their companions as their own cover, and they were barely able to shoot at the soldiers of the direct company in the trenches.

"Boom" and "Boom" two rockets with tail flames rushed out of the trench and blasted straight out, tearing apart the bunker that the Japanese forward squad had managed to build with great difficulty out of corpses, and even the Japanese soldiers who were hiding behind the corpses also screamed again and again. "Machine guns are ready, go 300 meters and fire at will." The Japanese army seemed to be a little anxious, and while the forward squad suffered heavy casualties, two full infantry squadrons pressed up at the same time, and the front of the position looked full of earthy yellow figures.

In front of the open and unobstructed position, the Japanese earthy yellow figure was getting closer and closer, and seeing that the Japanese army had entered the range of 300 meters in front of the position, the two M2 heavy machine guns that had been hidden on both flanks of the position finally opened fire. In the midst of the deafening explosion, two chains of fire split through the earthy yellow crowd and began to sweep through the living creatures in front of the position. The finger-thick bullets of the M2 heavy machine gun continued to gush out of the chamber, and the whistling projectiles carried a terrifying kinetic energy for the infantry, tearing the objects that stood in front of them to pieces.

The sudden firing of the M2 heavy machine gun, which was extremely powerful, came too abruptly, so that the attacking Japanese troops were not prepared at all. Dozens of Japanese soldiers who were left behind, still shouting and intimidating with guns in their hands, were stunned to see the sudden burst of fire in front of them, and then they saw half of their companions in front of them being knocked off, and their steaming internal organs sprayed all over their heads. The shattered corpses of Japanese soldiers, the splattered blood, and the miserable screams of Japanese soldiers before they died made this originally silent red soil plain look particularly terrifying.

The power of the M2 heavy machine gun's 12.7mm bullet is so frenzied that the average person will not survive as long as they are shot, and those who hit the chest will be torn a hole in the back by the bullet with a large head. The shattered flesh and viscera could be spewed several meters away, and the kinetic energy of the bullet could still easily penetrate and kill others following the corpse.

If you are shot in the head, the head hit by the bullet will immediately shatter like a rotten watermelon, and the red and white ones will be splashed on all sides like tofu brains. The arm and leg were hit and cut off on the spot, and the unlucky one would be immediately half-killed by the instantaneous pressure boost of the large blood vessels. Those who can still stay conscious after being shot will see that they are inexplicably missing half of their body, and they will only feel pain after a while, but they will be even more frightened, and they will immediately let out a terrible scream.

More than 100 Japanese troops who appeared within 300 meters of the front of the position were half shorter in the blink of an eye, and many of them had their upper bodies broken into pieces by the sweeping bullets and scattered to the ground. The M2 heavy machine gun had a range of more than 1,500 meters, and after sweeping away the Japanese soldiers who came within 300 meters, the two M2 heavy machine guns almost invariably began to extend their firepower.

The other Japanese soldiers 100 meters behind were already dumbfounded, they had never seen such an outrageous and terrible weapon at all, so that when the bullets the thickness of their fingers whizzed, most of the Japanese soldiers were still stunned and didn't know what was going on. Then I saw a blood mist rising in front of me, followed by the person next to me "bang" to smash, flesh and bones smashed into the body, very painful.

But this was only a momentary shock, and the shocked Japanese soldiers were thrown to the ground like mowing grass by the sharp bullet frenzy of the M2 heavy machine gun. A Japanese captain commanding the charge was spreading his legs and waving the command knife in his hand in a stern shape, and just shouted a sentence. Suddenly, he was hit by several heavy machine gun bullets on the torso, and the muffled sound of popping and popping occurred again and again, and the Japanese soldiers who escaped next to him were horrified to see that their commander's body was actually torn by heavy machine gun bullets and only one spine remained, supporting his stubby head and neck.

With a face full of incredulity, the Japanese captain who was whimpering for his life fell to the ground with a sigh of relief, and finally turned into a puddle of rotten meat. In just a few tens of seconds, the heavy machine guns swept wildly, and almost all the Japanese troops standing within 500 meters of the front of the position were cleaned. The two heavy machine guns tightly formed a cross-strafing fire, and the powerful barrage flew over the open area in front of the position, suppressing all the Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough to avoid the barrage.

By this time, the artillerymen that Mike had brought from Ramgarh had set up two American 60mm mortars. The gunners each aimed at a position where the Japanese soldiers had gathered too much, and the two cannons of "tom and tom" were fired, and seeing the pile of corpses in the distance thrown up with the smoke and fire of the explosion, the Japanese troops hiding behind the pile of corpses naturally could not fall behind.

Mike stood steadily in the trench, excited by the sound of gunfire on the position, and aimed his Garand rifle at a Japanese soldier who was probing his brain in the distance, and decisively pulled the trigger. "Snap" The other party's body fell backwards in response to the shock, and the eyes that were lying on the side were excellent, and he immediately praised, "Good marksmanship!" ”

Mike, who was already happy in his heart, shook his head, "Under normal circumstances, I didn't hit the heart directly, and I almost caught fire." "The people in the company who are directly in the company have long been familiar with Mike, and naturally know that this big-nosed style is not self-humble, but in disguise to tell others to praise his good marksmanship. The heavy machine gun shooter seemed to have gone crazy, and the extended fire of two M2 large-caliber heavy machine guns swept through the moving target in front of the position like a devastating force.

The bunkers built by the Japanese army with the corpses of their companions were the same as paper paste, and the heavy machine gun bullets with the thickness of fingers pierced and broken with a single stab, and the Japanese soldiers hiding behind the corpses did not have time to react at all, and they were already crushed.

The newly recruited recruits in Kawada's brigade had never seen such a terrifying battle scene before, and most of them were on the battlefield for the first time. The training they had received was completely different from what they saw in front of them, and it was as if the battle they were talking about by the instructors was something from another world. More Japanese soldiers were so shocked by the drastic changes in front of them that their jaws almost dislocated, and their faces were full of ghostly expressions, staring at the bloody battlefield in front of them. There are also some Japanese soldiers who can't help but vomit, such a bloody scene, even those guys who can be called veterans can't bear it, let alone these new soldiers.
