Rise From Eight Hundred

Chapter 126 A wave of flow

 There is no need to wait until daytime for another battle.

Since Tang Dao has estimated that the Japanese army must have deployed light and heavy machine gun fire points on one of the left and right sides of the Suzhou River Bridge waiting for the warehouse defenders who were ordered to evacuate, let's first take a look to see if this is the case.

Tang Dao and Leng Feng each took two people to sneak out of the warehouse at night, sneaking out for more than 100 meters in the darkness, and then fired three illumination bombs toward the front of the Japanese position 200 meters away, which was completely shrouded in darkness on the left and right wings.

When the flare slowly fell from high in the sky, illuminating the darkness more than 200 meters away from the front of the Sihang Warehouse, the Army Lieutenant Colonel standing behind the observation hole on the left wing of the warehouse took a deep breath. He was really shocked and angry. .

Tang Dao's guess was correct. In the field of view of the telescope, there were many Japanese troops 300 meters away, and most of them were not in the trenches directly facing the warehouse.

The Japanese troops evaded in a panic, which showed that they were ill-prepared for the flares that suddenly landed in front of their positions, but this was not the most important thing.

 The important thing is that the Army Lieutenant Colonel saw the machine gun that they had no time to remove. In the afterglow of the flares, with just a cursory glance, the cold muzzles of several Type 92 heavy machine guns set up in simple field fortifications by the river were numb.

The Japanese army used to place this kind of heavy firepower in semi-permanent fortifications 500 meters away, but now it moved it to the front-line position. Its purpose is self-evident.

They were afraid that the long-range shooting, which was as far as one mile away, would not be accurate enough. However, they were not afraid that the bullets would fall into the concession, but they were afraid that the Chinese soldiers retreating from the Suzhou River bridge more than 300 meters away would run too far!

Outside of several simple fortifications, there were more Japanese light machine gun duos hiding behind low walls. Although they were quite agile in hiding with their light machine guns, the condescending army lieutenant colonel could clearly see them.

Looking at the figure of the Japanese army trying to evade in the distance, the Army Lieutenant Colonel had already concluded that as long as he was actually ordered to lead the entire army to the concession from the Suzhou River Bridge, which was only 30 meters away from the warehouse, the Japanese army would set up light and heavy firepower points 300 meters away regardless of the danger. Will fire with full force.

Of course, if the warehouse defenders are evacuating, for example, waiting for heavy weapons and equipment to be transported away first, the so-called half-crossing attack will be caught off guard. The remaining soldiers can only become the targets of massacre. China has almost no power to fight back. The Japanese army Heavy machine guns are naturally not dangerous.

The Japanese army's plan was so sinister and sinister that the Army Lieutenant Colonel who figured it out had a cold sweat on his forehead.

Yes, Wakibajiro did this in the past time and space, but he was not as smart as the Army Lieutenant Colonel thought, and he didn't know how to attack halfway across the bridge. Instead, he just used light and heavy machine guns to block the bridge while the defenders were evacuating. noodle.

The defenders naturally fought back. In panic, the concession quickly communicated with the Japanese army's top brass, eventually forcing the Japanese to give up. However, in just ten minutes of exchange of fire, the Chinese defenders who stepped onto the bridge still suffered more than 20 casualties. The company and battalion commander Yang Ruifu was also seriously injured in this battle.

 In this era, a certain Japanese army commander was in a much worse situation than before. Three nearly full infantry brigades were beaten in half. Whoever was spared must not go crazy!

Gritting his back molars, he took advantage of the darkness to adjust six heavy machine guns and twelve light machine guns in one go. He built a machine gun position on the front line and lurked on the left wing of the warehouse, waiting for the warehouse defenders to take the bait and kill that one in one fell swoop. Kill the Chinese army that had brought him endless humiliation.

This firepower intensity is absolutely astonishing compared to the Suzhou River Bridge, which is only a few dozen meters long.

Once you set foot on that bridge, there is almost no chance of leaving alive.

Even, in addition to light and heavy machine guns, the Japanese commander, who was eager to avenge his shame, also prepared nearly 20 grenade launchers, which were intended to attack the 30-meter road from Sihang Warehouse to Suzhou River Bridge with covering firepower.

That is to say, the infantry artillery is not easy to control. If it fails, it will blast into the concession. Otherwise, Wakibajiro will definitely send the infantry artillery to attack.

Jiro Wakita had no intention of letting a Chinese soldier enter the concession, even though he had planned to force the concession to confine the Chinese soldiers who entered the concession.

It can be seen how much he hates this garrison to his core?

A man can't wait ten years for revenge, he must take it that very night. The Japanese colonel was very calculating.

 That is, how full the imagination is, how skinny the reality will be.

The Japanese colonel sitting in the headquarters of the Second Battalion of Yin Tengzhong had been waiting with big eyes since 10 o'clock. After waiting for two hours, his eyes were almost green, and he did not wait for any movement at the warehouse. , but instead waited for a sudden flare from the Chinese.

 His own heavy machine gun positions were all exposed to the light of illumination bombs.

 “Baga! Not good!” The bright green eyes of the Japanese commander suddenly shrank.

 The **** shrink faster.

The heavy machine gun position was exposed like this. If it had been left alone, it would not be terrible, but if it appeared like this in front of the Chinese with a large number of mortars, it seems that it would not be a good thing. It can only be said that the Japanese colonel is indeed a battle-hardened army commander, and his predictions are very accurate.

It’s true that he almost hated his crow’s mouth.

“Order the searchlight to start, search the front of the position and the river, and find the Chinese! Heavy machine guns, go first.” Jiro Wakiba’s order had not yet been finished.

In the Sihang Warehouse building 300 meters away, an army lieutenant colonel with a cold sweat on his forehead gave an order, "Fire!"

In the fortifications on the roof of the warehouse, the last five mortars in the warehouse were already stationed when Tang Dao and the others left the warehouse.

Each gun carries 6 shells. The order given by the Army Lieutenant Colonel to Lei Xiong was that once the order to fire was given, all the shells must be fired within 30 seconds, otherwise the Japanese mountain artillery retaliatory bombardment would come.

They had no more than 20 seconds to calibrate the Japanese machine gun positions exposed under the flares.

 All tactical actions are measured in seconds.

It can be said that we are dancing on the tip of death's knife.

 War, while pushing people into the abyss, is also constantly shaping people. Those who cannot make themselves stronger will be eliminated.

The artillerymen who have danced on the tip of death's sword countless times and finally survived, under the huge threat, their hand speed is dazzling. Even Tang Dao, a strongman who has been single for two lifetimes, can only be amazed.

 At least, he is not as good as them when it comes to playing with cannons.

 As a result, the artillerymen became the **** of death first, for the Japanese troops in the Japanese light and heavy machine gun positions who had been completely exposed to the light of the flares.

The Japanese army only deployed machine gun positions on the left wing. At the moment when the Japanese machine gun positions were discovered, all mortar muzzles were turned to the left wing.

The reason is very simple. If you want to block the bridge without letting bullets fall into the concession, you can only shoot directly from the front. This kind of shooting is destined to not be a double attack.

 The Type 92 heavy machine gun has a firing range of up to 1,000 meters, and even stray bullets that lose their straight trajectory are extremely lethal.

If two heavy machine gun positions facing each other fired at each other like this, without the Chinese firing, the Japanese on both sides could directly kill themselves, then not only the 36th Infantry Regiment would become the history of the Sino-Japanese war The biggest joke, maybe the short-legged people can become one of the funniest jokes in the history of written records on earth.

Since they had to shoot at the Suzhou River bridge deck and the bullets could not be fired into the Western Concession, the Japanese heavy machine gunners were also racking their brains.

 In order to ensure a direct range of fire, all heavy machine guns were mainly placed not far from the river.

There was originally a small alley, but now it has been almost destroyed by artillery fire, leaving only some low walls and piles of rubble.

 All the fortifications were built with sandbags that the Japanese machine gunners and ammunition handlers worked hard to carry from a distance.

Those sandbag fortifications that are not too thin may be able to block a heavy machine gun, but for mortar shells falling from the sky, it is really difficult.

Just like a woman who is only wearing a hair but is still very sexy, she encounters a group of evil men with tattoos of a blue dragon on the left and a white tiger on the right. Before her elder brother comes to help with a big stick, the evil men start a wave of "Quickly" ", accurate, ruthless" is released.

 30 shells, shot empty in one go.

The Chinese villains didn’t even have time to see how pitiful they were being beaten by their little Japanese soldier. A group of them swarmed up and ran away carrying dozens of kilograms of ‘murderous weapons’.

 In fact, they can’t see it either.

Tang Dao, Li Jijin and Yang Xiaoshan turned around and ran away immediately after firing the flares. Didn't they run and wait to be attacked by the Japanese?

The illumination time of the illumination bomb is only 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, everything is covered in darkness again, except for the firelight caused by the explosion of mortar shells.

so sad! The Japanese commander looked at the bright flames flickering in the distance and felt sad.
