After all, Li Wula was also a serious second lieutenant officer.
Although he has been losing battles, being able to survive is not just luck.
His guess was good. The Japs' vanguard arrived in about half an hour.
About half a group of Japanese soldiers came in a hurry.
The first thing was to gather ten grenade launchers and start dropping bombs.
Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!
The Japanese all fired Type 91 grenades.
The fuse delay of this kind of grenade is about 7 seconds, which is enough for the enemy to operate it.
First, press down the spring lever of the grenade barrel, then pull the pull ring and put it into the grenade barrel.
7-8 seconds is enough time for them to aim and react.
jump jump jump! jump jump jump!
These are fragmentation grenades with a maximum killing radius of about eight meters.
But it is basically useless against fortifications.
It doesn't even fall into the high-explosive category, so a stone like this fragmentation grenade cannot cause serious damage.
It is very effective against unarmored human bodies.
But as long as you hide, it will basically be useless.
As the name suggests, cat ear piercings are inline like cat ears.
Even if the explosion occurs in the trench, it will not hurt anyone.
Unless someone is looking for death and goes out to see what's going on.
After the Japanese started three rounds of volleys, a Japanese second lieutenant called his team to start the attack.
"beat!"
This is the first time Commander Ayi has commanded a battle alone.
The voice broke again and shouted sharply.
After hearing what Chief Ayi said, everyone began to take up arms and fight back.
Da da da! Da da da!
Two machine gun positions at the rear of the position also opened fire.
A hole is dug in the ground about one meter deep, and then a layer of sandbags is placed on the edge, and then logs or wooden boards are laid on top, and a layer of sandbags is laid on top again.
This is a machine gun fire point on a civil structure.
The width of the entire shooting hole is about twenty centimeters.
At a depth of one meter, two flat ammunition boxes were placed under the machine gun, and the machine gun was set up above.
The opening in the front is the shooting hole, and two machine gunners man the machine guns inside.
From the ground level you only see the height of two layers of sandbags.
This is the concealed firepower point, like the exposed heavy machine gun in movies and TV series.
All it takes is one shot to kill the Japs grenade hand mixed in with the crowd!
This arrangement may seem attractive, but it will be killed in the first round.
The defensive surface width of an infantry company in World War II was 1 to 1.5 kilometers in length.
Even if it doesn't need to be defended that wide, it's still at least 500 to 800 meters away.
We often see in movies and TV shows that a division of both sides has a row of light and heavy machine guns, submachine guns, and continuous strafing, which seems very intense!
In fact, a division must defend at least thirty kilometers of defense line. If you are piled up here, will the rest of the area be directly surrounded by you?
The film and television effects are completely different from the real situation.
Five meters away is enough for one person, and ten meters away for one person to defend is normal.
The main function of the machine gun position is radiation deterrence.
No one is stupid, and no one will get together with more than three people.
It was impossible to strafe, and the opponent wouldn't be stupid enough to charge blindly.
If the Japanese charge, they will use the direct-aiming Type 92 infantry cannon to destroy the machine gun position before they start to attack the position.
The machine gun position is placed about a hundred meters behind the forward position and can radiate a width of about four to five hundred meters, which will serve as a deterrent.
Just let them know that the heavy machine gun is firing at the enemy's head, which is always a deterrent.
The Japanese usually lay down and shoot at a position of 200 meters. Under such circumstances, it is difficult to find the heavy machine gun position 300 meters away.
No idiot would raise his head to look curiously at the situation in front of him.
After some struggles with the defenders, the Japanese chose to retreat in the first round of attack.
There were about four or five unlucky bodies left behind.
"Great! The Japanese have retreated."
Looking at the retreating kid, Commander Ayi breathed a sigh of relief.
He sat slumped on the ammunition box.
Looking at the magazine of his Browning pistol, he didn't know when it fell off.
Just now, when he kept pulling the trigger outside, was he shooting with his eyes?
"Deputy Commander, your magazine is here."
A soldier picked up Captain Ayi's magazine and brought it up.
"Sir Ayi, look at you, why do you keep losing your spare magazines!"
As one of his own, Kaname still had the emotional intelligence to help the awkward Ayi resolve the situation.
"Thank you"
The embarrassed Ayi forced a smile and responded.
On weekdays, they often favor Ayi, but they still give Ayi enough face in front of outsiders.
Because they all regard Ayi as their brother.
It doesn't matter how much brothers quarrel or fight behind closed doors.
But outsiders are not allowed to bully my brother.
Ding ding ding!
The phone rang, and Ayi quickly went straight to the command post.
After picking up the phone, "This is the left front position, I'm Lin Yi"
"Ayi, how is the situation over there?"
Meng Fanle's voice asked from the phone.
"The Japanese army invaded, but our troops resisted the enemy and repulsed it. Our army suffered no casualties. The Japanese army suffered about four or five casualties."
Compared with their reports, Ayi's reports are quite standardized.
Rather than calling him a devil or something like that, formal reports look like formal reports.
Although he didn't need to report anything, Ayi was still used to it.
"Then congratulations Ayi, you have won the first prize."
Meng Fangliao raised the corner of his mouth with a hint of compliment.
If you say that, Ah Yi really takes it seriously!
"Oh, this is such a small thing, there is nothing to congratulate or not to congratulate."
Ayi responded with a smile on his lips.
Ayi's sense of satisfaction was still very low, and the two hung up the phone after exchanging some good business bragging.
The Japanese began to push in a Type 92 infantry gun to prepare for a second attack.
After the bombardment started, Meng Fanlao called over Snake Butt, Bu La, and Mi Long.
"You should all know the power of the Type 92 Infantry Artillery. It's not awesome, but it's definitely very disgusting. If Ayi's side is defeated, then it will be our turn. Now we are lucky. The Japanese didn't notice us right away, so we have to get rid of this cannon. At least we can survive for one more day."
Fanla looked at Milong and said.
As long as Milong nods here, the rest of the people will basically follow.
If it's not spicy, it will follow you wherever you go, and the same goes for snake butts.
"Beancake, go get my machine gun."
Milong scratched his head and shouted.
Everyone immediately understood what it meant.
Fanla picked up the magazine of the Z35 Mauser 98K improved rifle with ten bullets.
The rope was tied to one end and a grenade was hung on his neck.
The same is true for the other people. One person hung two strings of grenades around his neck.
