"Senior, our progress this time was surprisingly smooth. Bengbu is indeed an empty city as you expected."
Taro Aso is flattering Kitashirakawa.
Kitashirakawa enjoyed it, riding a tall horse, holding a whip and pointing forward: "This little Bengbu is not in my eyes at all. I came here to kill people, just to tell that Dragon Boat Festival, in our Empire of Japan In front of them, they have no rear at all.
I just want to kill his majesty. Let him know that his so-called record before was only because I, Kitashirakawa Washi, did not come to China. Otherwise, how dare he show off his power in front of the Japanese Empire? "
Taro Aso quickly said: "What the senior said is absolutely true. This time, our successful attack on Bengbu will also inspire the imperial army. Then we will press the border with our troops. The small Huainan, no, the entire Jinpu line will soon be Become the possession of our Imperial Japanese Army."
"Hahaha!"
Bei Baichuan laughed proudly, but at this moment, intensive gunshots suddenly came from the center of Bengbu town.
Kitashirakawa stopped his horse, and Taro Aso also looked at the center of the town in surprise.
But because it was too far away, he couldn't see anything.
At this moment, a Japanese communications soldier came to report: "Sir, our forward team was attacked by a small group of Chinese soldiers. There were more than thirty people in total, and all of them were broken into pieces."
"Baga, how can you have casualties in such an empty city? Don't be dazzled by victory. What I want is a complete victory, do you understand?"
Bei Baichuan scolded him, and the communications soldier quickly bowed.
At this time, Taro Aso said: "Senior, I think the Imperial Army of the First Division was just careless for a moment. Compared with the thirty or so people, we still have a complete victory over the Chinese."
Kitashirakawa looked a little better after washing his face, then pointed the signal soldier with his riding crop and said: "Go and tell Ito, don't underestimate the enemy. The Imperial Japanese Army is invincible. If there are a lot of casualties in an empty city, we will lose this attack." Do you understand the meaning of ?"
"Hi!"
The Japanese communications corps took the order and immediately went to convey the order to Ito.
As the frontline commander, Ito frowned slightly. It could be said that even he did not expect that the elite of his first division would suffer more than thirty casualties in one go while fighting such an empty city.
After observing the terrain, he ordered the two squads to be divided into six combat groups to launch attacks on the security group on the front of the street, the drum tower, the inn, the regular army on the mill, etc.
Chen Shusheng was at a high place and he could see clearly that the Japs were coming in six groups.
"Use flag language to tell Zhuzi, Shuanzi, Xiaoqi and the others that the Japanese troops are divided into six groups. Among them, those attacking the Drum Tower are a feint attack, and those attacking the inn are the main attackers.
The Japs here are also the main direction of attack, but the security team can rest assured that that is the Japs’ final target. Have them spread out the people, the Japs may use grenade launchers. "
Chen Shusheng gave the order, and a communications soldier took the order and left. Then he used flags to inform everyone that the Japanese troops were divided into six groups. Only the inn and the mill were the main attack, and the other positions were all feint attacks.
But even if it was a feint attack, the Japs fought very hard, and especially the Japs' shooting skills were very good. A soldier on the drum tower fired with a machine gun, but just after his machine gun bullets swept through the Japs' bunker, a Japs He quickly stood up from behind the bunker and fired, hitting the soldier's helmet with one shot.
The helmet clinked, and the soldier almost spun around and fell to the floor of the Drum Tower.
The squad leader Shuanzi on the side quickly took off his helmet to check, and saw that the soldier had his eyes closed and was breathing heavily, as if he was seriously injured.
Shuanzi raised the opponent's head to see where the bullet had been. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find even a drop of blood. Looking at the helmet again, there was a deep scratch on the right side, which almost penetrated the helmet from the side. .
But unfortunately, the little devil's bullet failed to hit the middle of the helmet and was eventually slipped away by the helmet, and the soldier saved his life.
Shuanzi angrily kicked the opponent and said, "Get out of here, you little bitch are so lucky. The little devil's bullet bounced off the helmet. The bullet didn't hit you."
"Really? Am I okay?"
The soldier jumped up from the ground like a spring, with an expression of surprise and joy. The little devil's bullet just hit his helmet, and he thought he was dead. But unexpectedly, the helmet saved his life.
He picked up the helmet and kissed it. At this time, Shuanzi scolded: "Everyone, cheer up for me. These little devils have accurate marksmanship. They must be returned to me when changing magazines. Let's Shoot alternately, leaving no gaps for the Japs. Regardless of whether the Japs are feinting or attacking, just follow the main attack."
"yes!"
The soldiers took the order and divided a squad into two groups to shoot, while Shuanzi took the other two people and shot in the direction of the inn.
The main target of the little devil's attack is the inn, because as long as this inn is captured, the three enemy commanding heights can be divided into two, and there is no need to worry about the bullets fired from the inn to launch a strong attack on the enemies in the mill and drum tower.
As mentioned before, one of Chen Shusheng's machine gun platoons was divided into three groups and occupied the drum tower, inn, and mill respectively.
These three positions are in the shape of "pin". The inn is located directly in front of this character.
So if the kid wants to visit the Drum Tower and the Mill, he cannot avoid this inn. Therefore, they could only feign attacks from a distance on the Drum Tower and the Mill.
There is only a small road on the west side of the mill that can be bypassed, so the Japanese also sent two teams here.
One of the teams was restrained from a distance, while the other team detoured from the west and attacked Chen Shusheng's right wing.
Chen Shusheng had few people, and it was very uncomfortable to be attacked from two directions by the Japs. And if the firepower of the machine gun platoon had not been strong enough, I am afraid that the little Japanese would have defeated each of these three positions.
But even so, Xiao Qiyi in the front inn was a little overwhelmed. Under the fierce attack of Japanese shooting and grenade launchers, three soldiers were killed one after another.
Xiao Qi quickly filled the gap with a machine gun, otherwise once the little devil rushed over, the consequences could be imagined. There are only twenty-two people in his team, and eight of them are only temporarily recruited ammunition players.
As a machine gunner, you must naturally have an ammunition hand. Otherwise, if one person holds a machine gun and carries an ammunition box on his back, there will be no need to fight, and he will die from exhaustion.
Therefore, there has always been a rule in Chen Shusheng's machine gun company. All the soldiers in the machine gun company are machine gunners. Once the machine gunners need to fight, the soldiers in the rest of the baggage team will all serve as ammunition carriers to provide ammunition for the machine gunners! .
