Song Wanping carried a "big eight" semi-automatic rifle and took more than a dozen people to form several combat groups, alternately covering the ruins where Ishii and others were hiding;
There is a squad on the left and right wings of their squad, about 50 meters apart, forming a huge "pin" shape. This is a three-by-three platoon offensive formation dedicated to the independent army system. There is also a squad behind it equipped with three bazookas. The fire squad is ready to support the actions of the three squads in front.
Now all the divisions of the New First Army have copied the offensive tactics of the Independence Army, and their weapon configurations are similar. Except for the bazooka equipped by the fire squad, the individual weapons are not much different.
Song Wanping's squad has 2 "big eight grain" Garand semi-automatic rifles, a Browning machine gun (4 people), 6 Springfield rifles, and 1 sniper rifle. It is the standard configuration of the Goshawk State light infantry squad. In addition, each person also carried 8 grenades, wore an eagle-style steel helmet, and the military uniform was also eagle-style. Except for the oriental face, all the attire was eagle-style.
Ishii and others wanted to ambush Song Wanping's ninth squadron, so they were not in a hurry to fire. They wanted to get closer to a few dozen meters before firing;
Team 9 moved forward more than ten meters. Just when Ishii was about to give the order to fire, Song Wanping suddenly raised his hand to stop because he smelled a dangerous smell.
As an iron-blooded veteran, his ability to sense danger has saved his life several times.
He raised his hand, and the others quickly squatted down on one knee and found cover with their peripheral vision;
Song Wanping magically took out an eagle-made grenade, pulled out the ring, and threw it towards where Ishii and others were hiding. In fact, he did not find the Japs. He just threw a grenade when he felt there was danger and conducted fire reconnaissance.
The grenade exploded more than ten meters behind Shijing. Although it did not hit Shijing, it made Shijing mistakenly think that Song Wanping had discovered him, and immediately ordered to fire.
Ishii's overreaction was heard by Song Wanping. When he lay down, he also made a lie down gesture to others.
The enemy's gunfire rang out, and the bullet almost grazed Song Wanping's scalp and flew out;
Because the 3-3 formation of Class 9 was very scattered, and Song Wanping warned in advance, the Japanese's first round of fire attack only injured one soldier, and the others immediately lay down and went to find their own way. Good cover to fight back against the Japanese.
The Japs' machine gunner only fired three bursts before he was killed by the snipers of Team Nine. Without the suppression of the machine guns, the Japs gradually lost ground in the exchange of fire.
Song Wanping was not in a hurry to attack, he just lay down in the ruins and shot at the Japanese to attract their attention;
One of his semi-automatic rifles can suppress at least three or four 38-type rifles in actual combat. The Browning machine guns of Class 9 can even suppress the Japs. Although the Japs have the upper hand in numbers, they were outnumbered by Nine in the battle. Ban was unable to fight back.
While they were shooting at each other, Squads 8 and 10, who were on both sides of Squad 9, were outflanking the exposed Japs from both sides. This was a standard platoon offensive tactic;
The ninth squadron will contain the enemy directly in front of them, while the other two squadrons will take advantage of the opportunity to outflank the enemy, and finally eliminate the Japanese.
Captain Ishii did not notice the Chinese troops outflanking him. His attention was completely attracted by Squad 9. The firepower configuration and tactics of Squad 9 made him very uncomfortable, especially the snipers of Squad 9. The Japanese only needed If you show up even slightly, you will be killed.
"Bagayalu, kill the chicken and give it to me!"
Ishii's patience was finally worn out, and he wanted to take advantage of the numerical advantage to defeat Team 9, but before they could launch a counterattack, a group of grenades flew over from both sides;
This time it will cost them their lives, because their selective ruin positions are used to defend against frontal assaults, and their defense against the two wings is limited.
More than a dozen grenades exploded on the Japs' position, and the flying shrapnel instantly knocked down more than a dozen Japs. In addition to the seven or eight that had been eliminated by Team 9 before, only a few of the 27 Japs were left at once, and the fate was high. Captain Ishii actually only had one arm blown off, and his face and muscles were so painful that they were deformed.
"Baga Yalu! The emperor's warriors will not surrender until death!"
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
The eighth squad leader shot him three times with the Garand rifle in his hand. Ishii fell down unwillingly and returned to his feet.
The remaining Japanese were also eliminated by the other members of the Eighth Squadron. The Eighth Squadron leader flushed a mouthful of thick phlegm into Ishii, which just covered his eyes.
The eighth squad leader waved his hand, and the soldiers of the eighth squad, carrying rifles with bayonets, were very skilled in stabbing the Japanese lying on the ground. Not to mention there were a few "corpses" that shook when they were stabbed, and some were pretending to be dead. There are also wounded.
After eliminating Ishii and others, they were not eager to seize the Japs' weapons and equipment, but continued to search in another area.
The ninth squadron lost one person and injured three in this battle. One seriously injured person was carried off by the medical soldiers who were called over. The other two lightly injured people were also briefly bandaged. After taking care of these, they continued to attack.
This time, the formation of their three infantry squads became two behind one, with squad eight and squad ten taking the lead, and squad nine and the firepower squad trailing behind.
After the ninth squadron searched for several hundred meters, intensive gunfire rang out from the left wing. The experienced Song Wanping recognized the sound of the 92 heavy machine gun, and there were at least two of them. It seemed to be a firepower point of the Japanese.
The ninth squad and the fire squad quickly sent reinforcements. Sure enough, in a solid building, two 92 heavy machine guns blocked the eighth and tenth squads. The two squads were unable to lift their heads under the heavy bullets. They were waiting. Fire squad support.
As soon as the squad leader of the firepower squad saw the enemy's firepower configuration, he knew it was their turn to take action. With a wave of his hand, the two firepower teams moved up and the ninth squadron was responsible for the fire cover.
A few minutes later, two rockets flew towards the Japs' machine gun position. After two explosions, the Japs' machine guns completely misfired. Squads 8 and 10 took the opportunity to rush forward.
Intense gunshots rang out again, and this time Song Wanping was not in a hurry to send reinforcements, because he heard almost all the sounds of eagle weapons, and occasionally heard the sounds of a few 38-meter rifles.
Ten minutes later, Classes 8 and 10 took down the firepower of a Japs machine gun team and eliminated 19 Japs. The Japs' organization was basically crippled. It was very rare to be able to kill 19 Japs at once.
This kind of dragnet-style encirclement and suppression has been going on, and the Japanese were eliminated one by one. The 1st Division of the Independence Army moved from west to east, and the New First Army moved from east to west. On the fourth day after launching the general offensive, the two armies finally joined forces victoriously.
Afterwards, the nets were repeatedly pulled out, and the number of Japs in the encirclement became fewer and fewer. Until the sixth day, no Japs were found alive in the city.
Suddenly bursts of cheers erupted in the city
"Victory! Victory!"
"Gou Ri's Sixth Division has finally been wiped out!"
