Chapter 996: A Boom (Part 1)
No matter how He Shiqi was shaking in the trench with a light machine gun, no matter how stunned the enemy and us, no matter how the atmosphere on the battlefield had a brief pause because of He Shiqi's heroic performance, the battle continued.
"Bang! Bang! Bang..."
"Ka! Da! Da..."
"Swish! Swish! Swish..."
The sound of various guns completely broke the brief tranquility, and the enemy and us began to fight again: the Japanese still charged wildly, the Eighth Route Army soldiers were still fighting to the death, and the competition between spears and shields seemed particularly prominent at this moment.
However, I don’t know if the great courage inspired by He Shiqi made the Eighth Route Army soldiers excited, and it actually brought another extremely rare casualty ratio: there were originally forty-six soldiers in the third row, but twenty-one soldiers had been sacrificed before He Shiqi performed a miracle, and almost everyone was injured. However, after He Shiqi performed a miracle, perhaps the God of War rewarded He Shiqi, he also rewarded this luck to the remaining comrades in the third row he led. In the next five or six minutes, none of the remaining twenty-five soldiers died or even one was injured. However, they made the Japanese suffer more than twenty casualties.
More importantly, the Japanese had already rushed to the trenches and forced them down for about ten meters, but now the Japanese had been defeated more than ten meters away.
You know, there are only twenty-five people in total, but they have to face about two hundred Japanese devils. Moreover, they are worse than Japanese devils in terms of equipment. However, they can defeat the Japanese devils who rushed in front of them without paying any casualties. I have to say that this is an amazing war. Even if it does not help the overall situation, it has given the soldiers great spiritual encouragement.
Although everyone knows that this short victory is only temporary, and this short victory will never last long if the enemy has the advantage, especially if its own strength is much stronger.
However, everyone knows more about their identity - a soldier! They know more about what they are doing - defending their country! So, even though they know that everyone will probably die in the next battle, at this moment, everyone is not afraid at all, and no one retreats, thinking about killing a few more Japanese devils.
However, as the highest commander of the Eighth Route Army on Qinglong Mountain at this time, the Fourth Battalion Commander Peng Peng must not act irritably, nor should he think about fighting to kill one Japanese to protect his capital and kill two Japanese to earn one. Because he knew that he and the Fourth Battalion stationed in Qinglong Mountain this time, there was even more important thing to do: the positional war at this time was just to attract the attention of the Japanese army in the middle, so that the Japanese understood that the Eighth Route Army on Qinglong Mountain was not easy to mess with, and it must be taken seriously and must be eliminated, otherwise the rear route would be unstable. If this point could be achieved, the purpose of this positional war would be achieved and would be laid a good foundation for the next step.
So, when the Japanese finally repelled the first wave of attacks, Peng Peng issued an order to shrink his troops.
For a moment, everyone on the position withdrew from the position, replaced by pre-prepared dummies and guns disguised with wooden sticks. Of course, more importantly, it is -*.
Speaking of *, I really want to thank the seven blasting experts sent by the division headquarters to everyone.
Whether it is the assault group or the other three groups, including the main group, there is nearly 10,000 people, but none of them know how to use electricity to detonate the packet... Everyone is used to igniting the leads with fire to detonate the packet. No one thought of it, and no one could even understand how to use electricity to detonate the packet.
However, as a detonation expert, he naturally understands these... it is difficult or difficult for experts to do well, and technical problems and conditions are limited. However, detonation packages are something that ordinary people dare not imagine, but in the eyes of experts, it is very simple and easy for experts to do.
Now, when the main force of the assault regiment evacuated Qinglong Mountain, the blasting expert Lao Wang, who was a teacher, was naturally more powerful than the students who had not yet graduated.
Then, after Lao Wang's mention, Zhang Qingshan immediately decided to execute.
So, now, when the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion retreated, they were in the trenches and buried the * in the trenches as in advance as possible - basically buried them on the inside of the trenches. In this way, the wires and the * bags can be avoided from being blown up by Japanese artillery shells to the greatest extent, and it is not easy for people to see them. They are connected with wires between the * bags and connected to a hand-crank motor.
The Japanese's second attack began an hour later.
This time, the Japanese learned to be smart.
After learning from the last attack, the Japanese directly gave up the style of attacking the first attack with their powerful strength and directly attacking in full swing. This time, the Japanese launched a feint attack on the south side of Qinglong Mountain, mainly attacking the northeast side... Compared with the huge unfavorable geographical advantage of only a stone staircase in the south, which can only be used to attack upwards, they can only invest their troops little by little. Compared with the military taboo of adding fuel tactics, the terrain in the northeast side is much wider, which is conducive to the attacking party's deployment of troops and the extension of the firepower of heavy weapons.
At the beginning of the second attack, the Japanese still had the old routine: first launch a shelling, then send a small group of troops as the vanguard to attack, and behind them were the main force.
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
The defense line in the northeast of Qinglong Mountain was the focus of the Japanese attack. At the beginning, they carried out more violent shelling than before.
As the second Qinglong Mountain defense battle, there was still no major change in the south on the defense line, but the defense line in the northeast had a great change: I knew that I was facing the main force of the Japanese, with a large number of people, excellent weapons and sufficient ammunition. Therefore, when building fortifications, I made targeted changes based on these.
During the First Battle of Qinglong Mountain, three defense lines were built in the northeast, but that was because at that time, only a thousand Japanese devils were faced. But now they were facing very different things. Therefore, when building fortifications, Zhang Qingshan and others adapted to local conditions and gave up the first one directly.
Because the original first road is close to the main road and its extension to both sides is not wide, which is not conducive to the deployment of troops and formations, and is even more unfavorable to retreat. With the Japanese's firepower and offensive, the first line of defense is easily broken. If you still insist on deploying the first line of defense, at most one company. Moreover, once the Japanese conquers the first line of defense, there will be no chance of retreating in a row, so you can only give up the first line of defense.
The second line of defense and the third line of defense are not far away, only about a hundred meters away. Moreover, the most important thing is that the third line of defense is about twenty meters higher than the second line of defense. In other words, even if the Japanese take the second line of defense, it is equivalent to being completely exposed to the direct shooting range of the third line of defense. At the same time, although the width of the second line of defense to both sides is longer than the first line of defense, it is not much longer, and can accommodate at most two companies. What makes the Japanese even more depressed is that these two lines of defense can be used together at the same time to shoot and kill the Japanese.
To put it bluntly: the first line of defense (the original second line of defense) is a useless trick for the Japanese: it is absolutely not possible to not take it down. However, taking the first line of defense is equivalent to directly exposing their troops to the range of firepower shooting of the Eighth Route Army soldiers on the second line of defense (the original second line of defense) - within a hundred meters, it is really not far or near, just right. It can be said that for the Japanese, the first line of defense is really disgusting to them, but it makes them feel a huge threat to their lives when facing two lines of defense fire at the same time.
Originally, what He Shiqi and the others defended was the first line of defense, but now they have given up directly.
When the artillery was in the second half, the Japanese sent two teams as vanguards. When the two teams were about to approach the first line of defense, the Japanese's artillery stopped.
It’s better to live than to die!
Even if you are not afraid of death and are forced again, who is willing to die?
These dozens of Japanese Japanese advanced slowly with fear. Even the Eighth Route Army on the position did not fire, and they were not willing to shoot - they hoped that the Eighth Route Army would not fire.
Gradually approaching the first line of defense, gradually getting up, and gradually something was wrong with them: they were all less than fifty meters away from the first line of defense, why didn't they shoot?
You know, they had already shot a hundred meters away.
Could it be that the Eighth Route Army planned to use the old method because of insufficient ammunition: to put it closer before attacking?
This silent dead silence made the two Japanese soldiers more frightened, especially whenever they took a step forward, they were as if they were about to step on top. Be careful, be careful, be careful... Otherwise, if anyone has strict military discipline and faces the closer they are torture, the more pressure they are, the more deserters will probably appear among these Japanese soldiers.
However, no matter how much torture, no matter how much pressure is, they still have to move forward and still grit their teeth. Of course, they prayed in their hearts: When the Eighth Route Army suddenly came out and started shooting, they hope that the bullet would not hit them... From this point of view, people will have this idea, no matter whether the Japanese or the Japanese.
So, when there was about thirty meters away from the position, a Japanese officer pointed his sword forward and suddenly shouted something.
The Japanese shot at the "Eighth Route Army soldiers" who emerged from the positions.
"Bang! Bang! Bang..."
After a burst of shooting, the result was still very good: while many "Eighth Route Army soldiers" were knocked down, the "Eighth Route Army soldiers" did not fight back.
This made the Japanese unable to understand, but under the command of the commander, no matter how the "Eighth Route Army soldiers" reacted, they had to take down the position in front of them as soon as possible, so they could only charge and shoot.
When they arrived about ten meters in front of the first line of defense, they saw that there was still no sound on the position. A Japanese officer suddenly shouted something, and then, holding the command knife, took the lead in rushing towards the position.
