For the MZ42 machine gun, the range of 300 meters is no different from the range of 500 meters, as long as there is enough range, the MZ42 machine gun, which is habitually called a ripper by European armies, can turn all living creatures in the range into corpses. "Fire" Lao Dongbei on the bank of the river shouted loudly, and almost at the moment when this shout sounded, the long-suppressed gunfire broke out on the side of the small river, which had been silent.

The scorching bullets rained out, and the yellow tide chasing out of Hexi Village suddenly slowed down, and even regressed. Bullets and shrapnel swept through like a storm, and many of the Japanese soldiers who chased them out of the village died before they could let out a wail, and most of them, including the Japanese soldier Shaozo, who had been watched by Tang Cheng, retreated back to the village when the enemy fire was at its heaviest, in order to save their lives.

Hearing the shouts of the old northeast and the sound of machine gun fire, Su Datong, who had already run out of breath, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. "The surname is Su, are you going to fucking war? Take your men to the left, and you're blocking Lao Tzu's machine-gun firing. Su Datong just breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down slightly, when he heard the old northeast's scolding, although he felt very uncomfortable, but what the old northeast said was right, Su Datong could only jump into the river from the left with a cold face and his soldiers in a hurry.

"The grenadiers opened fire, sealing the entrance to the village for me, and not a single Japanese soldier could be released." Tang Cheng, who was halfway up the mountainside, saw that Su Datong's men had withdrawn, so he got down from the grenadier and opened fire to provide fire support to Su Datong and them. : "Boom" "Boom" "Boom" There were continuous fires and smoke on the bank of the river, and before the grenadiers on the Tangcheng side fired, the Japanese troops in the village took the lead in starting to bombard the old northeast on the bank of the river.

The MZ42 machine gun was a German-style weapon, and the Japanese had never seen this kind of machine gun before, but they knew that if they couldn't kill the opponent's machine gun, these soldiers would have to flee in front of them. "Wait a minute" The grenadier on the middle of the mountain just stuffed the grenade into the barrel, and was stopped by Tang Cheng, he did not expect that the Japanese troops in the village were coming with mortars, and once the grenadiers fired, they would inevitably hide the Japanese mortars, whether it was range or power, the grenadiers were not the opponents of mortars.

The Japanese soldier Shaozo who Tang Cheng had been staring at before saw that he could not continue to pursue the Shina army that had fled the village, so he ordered all his troops to withdraw into the village, trying to attract the Shina troops just now into the village to attack. Tang Cheng, who was halfway up the mountainside, saw that the Japanese army had withdrawn into the village, and said to Niu Laogui on the side: "Let our people withdraw, and the grenadiers will shoot two rounds at several houses at the entrance of the village, in case the Japanese army will arrange machine guns there, and immediately change places after the fight." ”

The Japanese troops had all withdrawn into the village, and although the machine guns placed on the bank of the river in Tangcheng were strong, they could not cause damage to the Japanese troops who had withdrawn into the village. Kuroko and his men are ready to retreat, but the old northeast, which has ceased fire, is still looking around looking for a suitable machine gun position, "The little company commander is in the water, the little devil has so many troops." Lao Tzu took it down with a single charge. ”

"Obey the order and go." Heizi said that he couldn't move the old Northeast, but Niu Laogui's words were what the old Northeast had to listen to, under the strong coercion of Niu Laogui, the reluctant old Northeast had to move along the river to the upper reaches of the river for a hundred meters, as long as they ran another three or four hundred meters away, the old Northeast they could safely retreat to the middle of the mountain. Moved a hundred meters along the river to the upper reaches of the river, Lao Dongbei never left again, although his current location is not far from the middle of the mountain, but it is not very far from the entrance of the village, as long as Tang Cheng orders to attack Hexi Village, Lao Dongbei and his men can immediately return to the previous machine gun position.

"Company Commander Su, what's the situation in the village?" Su Datong, who was out of breath, was carried up the mountain by Niu Laogui and them, and before Su Datong could thank him, Tang Cheng first asked about the situation in the village. The enlistment of the second company is to search for and clear out the sporadic Japanese scout troops in this area, since the Japanese army in Hexi Village has been discovered, Tang Cheng will not let this group of Japanese soldiers leave alive, but before attacking, Tang Cheng needs to understand the situation in Hexi Village first.

"I don't know very well" Su Datong poured half a pot of water in one go, and then shook his head at Tang Cheng again and again. "When we first entered the village, it was still calm, and we didn't go far before we encountered the devil soldiers, and my brothers suffered more than a dozen casualties before they could react, and the little devils arranged three light machine guns on the roof, and I didn't see the heavy machine guns, and when they retreated to the river, they also used their artillery."

didn't get too much useful things from Su Datong's mouth, Tang Cheng had no choice but to let Su Datong's people go to the back mountain to rest, and then called his people together to discuss countermeasures. "What did you say you just told me to cease fire? Hexi Village is not big, Lao Tzu only needs a charge to drive all the little devils out of the village, and when the time comes, you rush to the village, and everything will be fine. Lao Dongbei, who was called Mid-Mountain, still kept muttering, venting his dissatisfaction and complaints.

"You fucking stupid, didn't you see those Japanese soldiers nest back again, people don't give you a chance to fight at all, you don't even know what arrangements people have in the village, you roar to Hexi Village, Su Datong Those people are the best lesson." In front of Niu Laogui and them, Tang Cheng reprimanded Lao Dongbei well, although the latter was unwilling, he could only bow his head and remain silent.

Old Northeast is a rout, but he is a rout who has fought a battle, so he naturally knows that what Tang Cheng said just now is right. The two MZ42 machine guns he brought with him flew out hundreds of rounds of ammunition, and only a few Japanese soldiers were released. The action of the Japanese army retreating into the village cannot be regarded as unfast, and he was not given a chance to continue shooting at all, such a Japanese army is definitely not a soft persimmon like a local chicken and grass dog, and the second company and such a Japanese army will conduct an offensive and defensive battle, and whether they can win or not depends on two words.

After gesturing on the ground with the bayonet in his hand for a while, Tang Cheng pointed at the rudimentary map on the ground with his bayonet and whispered, "I just saw that there is a radio antenna in the village, which means that there is a radio station or command post of the Japanese army in Hexi Village, so we must fight this Hexi Village." The area of Hexi Village is not large, and there are not many houses, so the number of Japanese soldiers in it should not be very large. ”

"Old Northeast, you still block the entrance of the village with a machine gun, and the machine gun position is still placed along the river, but you have to remember that you must not charge with a machine gun. Uncle Niu, you take the second platoon of people back to the back of the village, wait to intercept the Japanese troops who were repelled by us, and the sunspot will lead the first platoon to attack, and I will call the grenadiers to provide you with fire cover. After a brief discussion with Niu Laogui and them, Tang Cheng began to deploy the steps of the operation, but Tang Cheng did not notice the strange expression on Niu Laogui's face.

"Company commander, when we attack, there are bullets and cannons, so what can the people in the village do? We can't fight the common people and the little devils together. A machine gunner under Lao Dongbei couldn't escape Lao Northeast's coercion, so he had to ask the doubts in his heart. Although Tang Cheng looked young, after a few battles, his prestige as an officer had been achieved, except for Niu Laogui and a few officers in the second company, no one else dared to question Tang Cheng's words.

"Since we got here, there are only a few old men sitting at the entrance of the village in the entire Hexi Village, not to mention that there are no ordinary people in the village, and there is not even cooking smoke on the roof, what does this mean, it means that there are no shadows of ordinary people in this village for a long time." Tang Cheng suddenly stopped talking, and then glanced around at Niu Laogui and them, "But this is just my speculation, maybe the people in the village were locked up by the Japanese army, but we can't avoid this village because of this." ”

Niu Laogui and they are all illiterate rough people, but they can't talk about Tang Cheng, since Tang Cheng has made up his mind to fight Hexi Village, Niu Laogui and they can only follow Tang Cheng's steps to execute. The soldiers of the second company in disguise went down the river one by one along the mountain, and Su Datong, who had been resting for a while, also followed his soldiers into the river.

"Let's start" watched from a distance Niu Laogui lead people to go ashore from the downstream to the back of Hexi Village, Tang Cheng was the first to climb out of the river and run towards the ridge that had already been optimistic. The Japanese machine gun at the entrance of the village opened fire to intercept, and a few strings of ash pillars splashed in front of the ridge where Tang Cheng was hiding, Tang Cheng designated his own outstretch, he didn't think about taking the lead in killing the village, he did this to boost the morale of his soldiers, and second, to test the position of the Japanese machine guns for the two grenadiers halfway up the mountain.

"Boom" and "boom" two explosions, the grenade that entered the village from the middle of the mountain exploded at the entrance of the village, the Japanese machine gun that had been roaring was dumb, Tang Cheng, who was lying on his stomach in the mud, looked back, and the grenadier on the middle of the mountain was shifting positions, "Kill, brothers, enter the village and kill all the little devils." Seeing that the Japanese machine gun at the entrance of the village was dumbfounded, Su Datong, who was lying on his stomach not far from the old northeast, came to his senses, got up and roared and rushed to Hexi Village, and his soldiers also rushed out of the river.

According to the plan originally discussed with Tang Cheng, Su Datong and dozens of soldiers under him were acting as feints, but looking at the appearance of Su Datong and his group of soldiers, it seemed that they were really going to enter Hexi Village. Tang Cheng, who had already jumped out of the river, was not with Su Datong and them, his position was in the lower reaches of the river, and Heizi and a platoon of soldiers were lying on the riverside behind Tang Cheng, waiting for Tang Cheng's order.
