Chapter 1218 Thunder on the ground!
"Ka! Da! Da..."
"Look down!"
The so-called elites are just better than ordinary soldiers, both individual and teamwork. They are also humans, flesh and blood, emotions, and will be injured and sacrificed.
The second squad leader called out, and a bullet hit the left arm. After the bullet penetrated, blood flowed out. Seeing this, a soldier wanted to bandage the second squad leader, but the second squad leader pushed him away, holding the box cannon in one hand, and while fighting back at the enemy, he loudly urged everyone to move forward quickly and must rush to a safe distance.
The second squad leader was still good, at least he was just injured, but the third squad was not so lucky.
Because the Japanese gun suddenly fired and was very hidden, the third squad leader was shot three times in front of the attack, and he didn't have time to leave his last words and died on the spot.
According to the rules, the squad leader died and the deputy squad leader took over.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were red, the deputy squad leader was afraid that everyone would be impulsive, so he shouted: "Calm down, we are an assault company, not an ordinary soldier..." Then he shouted to the machine gunner behind: "Machine gunner, cover!"
Then, the deputy squad leader fired at the Japanese machine gun.
"Click!Click!"
The sound of air came, and the deputy squad leader quickly changed the *, but, just as he lowered his head, he found a 38-large cover at his feet. He immediately inserted the two box cannons that had been replaced with bullets at his waist, picked up the 38-large cover, aimed at the Japanese machine gunner, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
With a gunshot, the Japanese machine gunman who had just shot the squad leader was shot in the head... Finally, he avenged the squad leader.
This made the soldiers feel much better.
The actions of the deputy squad leader also reminded everyone: the two sides are more than 100 meters apart, which exceeds the effective killing range of the box cannon. However, such a distance is really a pediatric for the rifle, especially the extremely penetrating Sanba.
So, the soldiers searched for the surrounding 38th covers. Many smart people were busy and did not forget to touch bullets from the Japanese.
Because of the two previous explosions, there were no few Japanese left in this area, so the soldiers of Squad 2 and Squad 3 were easily "cleaned" them quickly. The same reason made the Japanese who escaped from the explosion range escape faster and faster, so that when they came to their senses and wanted to counterattack the soldiers of Squad 2 and Squad 3, the nearest Japanese was fifty or sixty meters away from Squad 2 and Squad 3.
In other words, as long as the Japanese can withstand the firepower of the Japanese, the soldiers of the second and third squads will soon be able to rush to a safe distance without worrying about the Japanese attacking nearby along the way.
The key now is: we must take advantage of the Japanese's heavy firepower that has not been transferred, and our two light machine guns have taken advantage of the opportunity to forcibly move forward. Otherwise, once the Japanese mobilize heavy firepower and even need to mobilize a few more light machine guns, they can defeat the two light machine guns on the first row of the assault company. At that time, they will inevitably be suppressed by the Japanese. This may be more self-protection for the second and third squads, but it will be extremely difficult to rush forward.
Fortunately, they had already rushed forward for nearly twenty meters, and they only needed to defend for a few minutes. In addition, the Japanese on the other side of the city wall were restrained by their comrades outside the city, and were even more overwhelmed by the people who were constantly throwing upwards from the city. For a moment, they really couldn't care about this side. And no one knew how long these favorable conditions could last. In other words, the soldiers in the second and third rows must gain a foothold before these conditions disappeared and create relatively safe conditions for the main force to enter.
Without orders, the soldiers knew how to do it... In fact, before the battle began, the assault company had conducted targeted training on the walls of Sanqiao County, and one of them happened to be exactly the same as the scene in front of them.
While the Japanese were still restrained from the city, the machine gunners had no time to deal with this side for a while. The soldiers sometimes crawled forward; sometimes flew to another place; sometimes hid behind the sandbag and waited with their heads; sometimes cooperated with the machine gunners...
Propelled little by little, eroded little by little, and left the dangerous area little by little. Time flew by, and three minutes passed quickly.
"Time is up, let's go down!"
"boom!"
A flash of fire, a shocking sound. Even in the dark, you can still see a black cloud mixed with countless black objects soaring into the sky, and the black objects scattered like flowers in the sky...
Even within a few minutes after the explosion, the explosion point and its surroundings were still dusty, and the specific situation inside could not be seen at all. However, with the help of moonlight, if you look from bottom to top, you can still vaguely see a large hole in the broken corner of the city wall being blown out again. Even the city wall on the right side of the city wall (from the angle of the assault line, the right side from the outside of the city) was blown down nearly ten meters... This was the order that a squad leader received only the need to blow up this city wall, so he used all the bags and placed them at two points about seven meters apart, and modulated to the same time, which would have such a shocking effect.
At this time, the first, second and third squads of the assault company had rushed to about forty meters from the breaking point and about fifty meters away from the explosion point. In terms of distance, it was absolutely safe.
However, reality is not that perfect.
The main threat is the broken stones that were blown up, scattered, and then fell heavily. The lethality produced by their impact is absolutely no less than the consequences of being hit by a bullet.
Fortunately, everyone had already judged this situation. As it was about to explode, the second squad leader roared and reminded everyone that the soldiers who were shooting with the Japanese were immediately looking for sandbags and other things to protect themselves.
Even so, several soldiers were hit by gravel, but because the gravel was not large, there were no serious injuries that threatened their lives. The biggest serious injury was that a soldier's left leg was hit by a platter the size of a ping-pong ball, causing a fracture on the spot. From this, it can be imagined how amazing the power of such an explosion was.
Of course, the Japanese devils over there are countless times more miserable than here. Not to mention anything else, there are no less than ten Japanese devils who are deaf or bleed in their ears by the shocking explosion at close range, and no less than fifty minor injuries.
As soon as the explosion ended, a group of soldiers immediately ran to the construction site as planned, with the purpose of carrying the wood from the construction site to the door and ignite it, so as to use the fire to hinder the speed of reinforcements of Japanese reinforcements. In order to prevent the hard workers from escaping, the Japanese used barbed wire and wooden piles to surround the construction site, and directly included the broken walls. The other two gates on the other side were respectively attached to the city walls, which led to the current situation: in a short time, if you want to directly reinforce from the main street to the broken walls, and block the assault regiments rushing in from outside the city, you can only go to the gate of the construction site. Once the gate of the construction site is blocked by the fire, it will delay the Japanese for several minutes...
Don’t underestimate these few minutes. Sometimes you can decide the outcome of a battle or even a battle.
The simplest manifestation is that in these few minutes, the soldiers of the assault company can enter the city as long as they rush through the broken wall, without worrying about frontal blocking. After the Japanese rushed through the gate, the soldiers of the assault company had already rushed to the target. In fact, the main force of the Third Battalion could have more time to arrange blocking positions, seize the initiative, and provide good support for other comrades.
Of course, this is just a talk on paper. In fact, the Japanese are not only cruel, but also have rich combat experience. They did not be blocked by the fire for at least three minutes as everyone predicted. In fact, the Japanese are blocked for less than a minute, but they did cause some trouble for the Japanese. For example, their heavy machine guns must be carried out from the car, and then several people carried them forward together, thus being indirectly delayed for a little time.
The assault group outside the city was already impatient. They were waiting for this "boom" sound, because this was the offensive signal they needed.
As the leading assault company, when the flying sand and rocks fell like rain, the Japanese on the left side of the city wall were suffering heavy casualties, and were unable to take care of themselves by the huge explosion. The Japanese on the right were busy dealing with the attacks of the first row of squads, second and third squads, and were unable to take care of the outside of the city. In addition, the two were at least sixty or seventy meters away from the blown hole. The main force of the assault company rushed in at this time, which was relatively safer. Otherwise, if the Japanese on the first side counterattacked wildly, if they wanted to rush in again, the casualties would definitely increase dramatically.
When will you not rush at this time?
"rush!"
With Zhao Shanhe's order, the soldiers of the assault company rushed quickly to the broken corner of the city wall that had been blown up... At this time, the closest distance to the broken corner of the city wall was only about forty meters.
However, what reflects the difference between the Assault Company and ordinary soldiers is that in this situation, ordinary soldiers will mostly shout loudly to increase the psychological pressure on the enemy. However, no one of the soldiers in the Assault Company made any sound without any orders, and they all charged quickly silently.
Even after rushing into the entrance of the city wall, none of them made a sound, and they all silently followed the previous plan.
Even occasionally one or two soldiers were injured by stray bullets, and they all gritted their teeth and stood up, and they would never scream at all.
This surprised the soldiers of the Third Company of the Assault Corps, who followed closely behind the Assault Company and wanted to coordinate with the Assault Company to attack the Japanese ammunition depot, and to serve as a strong backing for the Assault Company. However, they also learned from the Assault Company without knowing it - without saying a word, approached silently, and silently collected the results.
As the assault company and the third company rushed into the city smoothly from the break of the city wall, the main force of the third battalion and the artillery company followed also began their respective tasks...
