Two Sichuan soldiers from the infantry squad put on brand new military uniforms, but the looks on their faces were still very different from those of the German weapon divisions originally stationed here.
The soldiers of the German Arms Division are all burly men.
With a height of 175-185cm, he is much taller than the average soldier.
On the other hand, there are only a handful of people in the Sichuan Army who can reach a height of 170cm.
Perennial famine left almost everyone with limited physical development.
The Japanese attack continues.
After the two teams entered the position, they began to shoot outside.
boom!
One of the soldiers did not listen to the warning given by the second lieutenant at the outpost.
Don't stay in one place for too long.
After all, this trench is not crowded with one person, but one person is five meters wide.
So what is needed is for them to shoot once, lower their heads, change places, and continue shooting. Don't wait to see if they hit or not, just lower their heads and change positions immediately.
But this Sichuan Army soldier did not accept Zhang Chen's warning.
He fired two shots in succession from the same position, and when he raised his head for the third time, he was shot directly in the head.
Blood continued to gush out from the hole in his forehead, and the bullet on the back of his head had already caused a wound as big as the mouth of a bowl.
Without even a struggle, he rolled back and died on the ground.
"Please be serious. The little devil's marksmanship is beyond our comparison. Second Lieutenant Zhang told me not to fire twice in a row at the same position. Don't you have donkey hair stuffed in your ears?"
The old squad leader looked at the corpse on the ground and angrily scolded the others.
"The machine gunners should also be careful. They only need fire suppression. Please be careful. We have enough ammunition now. We have to save our lives even if we are hit by fire."
The company-level unit is equipped with three 50mm mortars, one for each platoon.
The three platoons have three 50mm mortars, plus company-level firepower of four MG08 heavy machine guns, plus two 80mm mortars.
Originally, the little Japanese wanted to get closer and fight with their superior shooting skills by virtue of their superior strength.
Who would have thought that four more MG08 water-cooled heavy machine guns would come directly.
Not only that, there are three 50mm mortars and two 80mm mortars.
You must know that mortars are specifically designed to kill unarmored units.
The greatest damage was done to the infantry, and the Japanese's continued attacks in the afternoon directly caused the death of more than 200 people.
After a busy day, more than 600 Japanese soldiers were killed at the outpost.
The atmosphere inside the Japanese temporary unit headquarters was very gloomy at night.
After all, most of the brigade was lost today.
The entire regiment had a total of only 3,000 men, and 600 were wiped out in one day.
Even the little devil is a little overwhelmed.
The key is that their infantry artillery has no advantage at all when confronting opposing artillery fire.
In addition, almost all outposts are made of reinforced concrete.
The mere 70mm infantry gun is really just scratching the itch.
Nothing worked at all at the end of the day.
Although it didn't work here, in other places, the fighting in the streets of Shanghai was very fierce.
The disparity between the two sides is also huge. The Japanese have already dispatched many tanks and chariots.
The principal of the National Government called and hoped that Nan Beichen would provide some assistance to Zhabei District's defense line.
Zhabei District is very familiar to Nanbei Chen, and there are many industries there.
One hundred signal flag special forces, plus a battalion of German weapon divisions, and a battalion of Sichuan troops went to Zhabei District to support the operation.
They set off overnight, with captain Wang Feng of the special forces, major battalion commander Zhao Song of the German Arms Division, and captain and battalion commander Zhou Zhong of the Sichuan Army.
…
On the Zhabei battlefield, the Kuomintang troops were counterattacking under the cover of night to seize the positions lost during the day.
It wasn't until early the next morning that Wang Feng and Zhao Song led the team into Zhabei District.
At the Xinhua intersection in Zhabei, a Cantonese army unit was fighting fiercely with the Japs.
The little Japanese relied on two Type 92 infantry cannons to knock out the firepower of seven heavy machine guns of the Guangdong Army.
Then a series of attacks directly broke through the defense line of the Cantonese army.
"All ready to fight!"
The Cantonese army in front had just been broken through, and when they were returning, they happened to encounter them.
At Zhao Song's order, the troops immediately entered combat status.
"Quick! Arrange the heavy machine guns and find a good position for the mortars!"
"Disperse the signal flags, form a group of four, sneak attack!"
"Follow Battalion Commander Zhao's orders and cooperate."
The Sichuan troops fought together with Zhao Song's cooperation.
Six MG08 heavy machine guns were deployed directly on the street.
Da da da! Da da da!
The intensive firepower directly hit the Japanese and made them turn around and dodge.
"Get inside! Disperse"
Just after the Japanese retreated, Zhao Song immediately ordered.
As a major, he has a lot of combat experience.
If it were him, he would launch an artillery attack immediately.
So he can think of it, and the little devil must also be able to think of it.
Therefore, after a round of fighting, retreat immediately, spread out, and stabilize the defense first.
The machine gunners directly picked up the huge gloves, stretched their entire arms inside, and then picked up the hot barrel.
The tripod below was also quickly put away by the secondary shooter.
The ammunition supply hand quickly retreated with the ammunition box in hand.
The remaining heavy machine gun was placed under the eaves of the street.
The rest withdrew, and as expected, the place was soon attacked by the Type 92 infantry artillery.
"Two Type 92 infantry guns!"
"Old Wang, I've found a way to solve it."
Zhao Song said to Wang Feng, the commander of the special forces captain next to him.
"What's the rush? Let the cannonballs fly for a while!"
Wang Feng had already dispersed the special forces.
When the bombardment started, we had already started to touch it.
jump!
Da da da! Da da da!
jump! jump!
After four special forces blasted open a wall, they rushed out and emptied the magazine of the Chicago Typewriter.
Then two more high-explosive grenades were thrown.
The Japanese artillery unit connected with a defensive unit on the edge was directly shot to death.
Bah!
A smoke bomb was thrown, and the four special forces quickly disappeared into the smoke and left.
When the little devil rushed over, he found that the barrel of the gun had been deformed and could not be used.
There were many killed Japanese soldiers lying around.
"Bagaya road!"
The devil cursed angrily, but it was all in vain.
There was also another team of special forces who climbed onto the roof using a hundred-claw hook and dropped two high-explosive bombs from above.
It detonated together with the shells, causing a big explosion.
More than a dozen Japanese soldiers were blown up and their bodies were gone.
The special soldier fell directly from the third floor and was seriously injured. He was carried away by the other three people.
He probably didn't expect to detonate the artillery shell. The power of the grenade was far from the power of the artillery shell explosion.
The huge shock wave directly threw him from the third floor.
The only two Type 92 infantry guns of the Japanese brigade were destroyed.
But the Japanese still have grenades!
The Japanese are holding a grenade and are ready to perform their skills!
