At this time, Pan Rengui, who was commanding the battle in the position, also discovered the Japanese follow-up troops at the foot of the mountain, like locusts, rushing over the mountains and plains, like a yellow whirlwind blowing across the entire mountain.
"Communicator, order the third platoon to come quickly for reinforcements. The firepower of the machine gun platoon will block the Japanese follow-up troops."
Only then did he realize how powerful these little devils were.
Although his command also considered the situation, he did not brave the Japanese heavy machine gun fire and rashly ordered the machine gun to fire. Instead, he waited until the Japanese army had rushed 100 meters away before ordering the machine gun and submachine gun to strike suddenly at the Japanese army.
The sudden addition of two platoons with a total of 6 Czech machine guns and more than 30 submachine guns did a devastating blow to the Japanese forward troops. Dozens of Jin-made grenades fell from the sky, and Pan Rengui could see dozens of Japanese soldiers falling on the charge.
According to Pan Rengui's past experience, when the offensive force is hit by superior and intensive firepower, it generally means the failure of the offensive battle. The attacking side could only retreat quickly under a hail of bullets.
However, the tenacity of the little Japs exceeded Pan Rengui's expectation. After these hundreds of Japs killed and injured nearly a hundred people, they did not choose to retreat. Instead, they each found bunkers and started fighting with the defenders on the battlefield about 100 meters away from the two sides. Shooting. Moreover, the Japanese army still had many surviving grenadiers. They found a crater or a low-lying area in twos and threes and began to throw grenades at the defenders' positions.
As his own soldiers were constantly hit by precise bullets from the Japanese army or killed by grenade grenades, Pan Rengui felt a hint of danger.
Knowing that the two sides were shooting at each other at such a close distance, the Japanese army's precise shooting and numerical superiority quickly became apparent.
People on both sides were shot and fell to the ground almost every second. Although the defenders were in a commanding position and had the upper hand with automatic firearms, the battle only lasted ten minutes, and the 1st company had already suffered nearly 20 casualties. This was the reason why Pan Rengui hurriedly mobilized the reserve team to come up for reinforcements.
This little devil's tactics gave him a headache. Now they were basically lying outside the farthest distance that the 1st company's grenades could throw, clinging to the defenders like brown candies, exchanging lives for lives and injuries for injuries. .
In fact, for the soldiers of the 1st Company, the biggest threat was the Japanese grenade. It was so accurate and it fired in a straight direction. When it hit the trench, it caused a howl.
But Pan Rengui couldn't find a way to deal with it for a while. Now three machine guns had misfired. Pan Rengui knew that they must have been destroyed by the Japs' grenades without checking.
The morale of the defenders also suffered a blow. Many soldiers, including several junior officers, looked at him with pale faces many times, waiting for his order to retreat.
In the previous warlord civil war, Pan Rengui would not be punished even if he ordered his troops to retreat.
If you can't win, then retreat. This is the custom and old knowledge in previous civil wars.
However, this is a national war.
Pan Rengui thought of the battalion commander's original order: "If you don't see the signal flare for retreat, I will have to hold you back even if you fight until there is only one person left. Unauthorized retreat is subject to battlefield discipline."
Thinking of this, Pan Rengui pulled off the military cap on his head.
Damn it! If a person dies, a bird will look up to the sky, and he will not die for tens of thousands of years.
Ever since I joined the army, I have known that this day will come. Isn't it just a matter of exchanging life for life? If a little devil is not afraid of death, is it that I, a man from Jin, am a coward?
He shouted loudly: "Communicator, tell me to go to each platoon to convey the order. We are going to confront the Japs on the battlefield today. No one is allowed to withdraw. Anyone who dares to evacuate will be shot on the spot. The Japs will fight us desperately." , we cannot embarrass the commander-in-chief and the fellow villagers in Shanxi. Everyone, hold on, reinforcements from the mountain will arrive soon."
Wang Xiaolin looked away at the company commander with a face filled with disappointment, and cursed in his mouth as he muttered: "You are damn sure to die this time, the ancestor of the Japanese little devil."
While cursing, he ran over and dragged away the bodies of the machine gunner and deputy shooter who had been killed by the grenade not far away. He picked up the Czech machine gun that was under them, pulled the trigger of the gun, and said loudly : "Jia Laoer, come here and load bullets for me. Today I will kill one to protect my capital, and I will make profit by killing two."
You must know that the grenade of the Japanese grenade is equivalent to the power of a hand grenade. It will certainly cause death or injury to human flesh and blood, but it is not very destructive to the machine gun itself.
Jia Laoer's arm has been hit by a Japanese bullet and he can no longer hold the gun to shoot, so it is suitable for him to serve as a loader.
At this moment, "ta da da..."
The two Maxim heavy machine guns in the gun platoon began to roar.
This was the first time that the heavy machine guns of the 1st Company opened fire since the Japanese army launched the offensive. It has to be said that a heavy machine gun is a heavy machine gun. With its continuous high-rate firepower and ultra-long range of 800-1000 meters, it is a proper life harvester on the battlefield.
The wild rain of bullets erupted from the two heavy machine guns not only forced the Japanese follow-up troops to hide in all directions, but also scared the Japanese troops at the front of the position to the ground.
On the position, the soldiers of the 1st Company, who were suppressed by the Japanese grenade launchers and precise shooting, finally had a chance to breathe.
Wang Xiaolin took advantage of this gap to set up the machine gun, and without taking much aim, he pulled the trigger at the position down the mountain.
"Da da da..." The 20 rounds of bullets in the magazine of Jin's imitation Czech machine gun spurted out instantly.
As soon as the bullets were fired, he immediately held the machine gun in his right hand and ran away holding Jia Laoer with his left hand who was still stupidly loading bullets into the empty magazine.
"Jia Laoer, you damn boy, run faster, the little devil's grenade is coming."
Sure enough, before he finished speaking, he heard two "boom" sounds, and two grenades landed at the position where he had just shot, with an error of no more than 50 centimeters.
This is the cleverness of Wang Xiaolin. He knows that playing precision shooting with the Japs now is courting death. There are hundreds of Japs with superb marksmanship lying down below. I don’t know when a Japs will be aiming at this position. How dare you look up and take a closer look? To take aim is to seek death.
Now for the 1st Company, it is no longer a question of how many Japanese troops are killed, but to try to deter the enemy and slow down the subsequent Japanese attack. Otherwise, if the Japanese army's front and rear teams join together and launch a charge, it will be a cluster charge of thousands of people. The distance between the two sides was only more than 100 meters, and no amount of automatic firepower from the 1st company could withstand it.
However, the Japanese army immediately found a way to deal with the firing of the two heavy machine guns of the 1st company. Soon dozens of Japanese soldiers pushed up the two 92 infantry guns and followed. They quickly found a shelling position and the two guns Just start aiming towards the mountain.
