Rise From Eight Hundred

Chapter 849 Beyond Shooting! (Please give me a monthly pass at the end of the month!)

Ishiguro Sadanzo was even more cunning than Tang Dao had imagined!

On the one hand, he ordered the mountain artillery to fire at the distant south bank of the Bi River to suppress the Chinese artillery fire. Together with the two infantry guns of the third infantry battalion, a total of 6 infantry guns were not idle, and they continued to bombard the positions of the third battalion.

Of course, that was not a meaningless consumption, but to prevent the heavy machine guns of the third battalion from attacking the Japanese army who were sweating and digging field trenches 700 meters away.

The effective range of heavy machine guns is up to 1,000 meters. It is impossible for the Chinese to shoot and everyone has to lie on the ground. When will the trenches be dug?

However, the bombardment of the positions by 4 infantry guns seemed to be scratching the itch and could not cause much damage, but no one dared to take it lightly. Infantry guns are also guns, and falling into the trenches is also a bloody storm. All heavy machine guns were withdrawn from the fortifications and dragged into the trenches to hide.

Ishiguro Sadazo's move is like two groups of children fighting. What he threw was not a stone that could cause bloodshed, but a pile of shit. It won't kill you, but it can disgust you to death.

The old soldier was already very angry because his infantry company lost 9 people under the Japanese artillery bombardment. Now that the Japanese infantry dared not attack, they started this annoying artillery bombardment. The commander of the regiment ordered all mortar squads not to be easily exposed and could not counterattack. This kind of anger with nowhere to vent was like a fire, burning more and more.

It is said that wisdom comes from desperation. The old soldier suddenly remembered Tang Dao and talked about a transcendent shooting method created by the Germans in World War I.

It was after the outbreak of World War I that the new weapon, the machine gun, was widely used. Because the combat power of the machine gun was very large, the machine gunner became the primary target of the enemy on the battlefield. In order to prevent machine gunners from being hit by large-scale attacks from the enemy, and to increase the range of machine guns and increase their lethality, the German army first created a long-range curved dispersion shooting method, which was called the overshooting shooting method after the war.

This shooting method first requires observation of the target group, and then the heavy machine gun is set to a certain angle based on the results, and fired at the sky at an angle.

Since the Maxim machine gun has a very high shooting speed, the bullets fired will be scattered in the target area like rain after crossing a curve, and the angle of their fall can even be close to vertical.

In this case, it is useless for soldiers on the battlefield to lie down to avoid, and lying down is more likely to be killed by bullets falling from the sky. This tactic makes no place on the battlefield absolutely safe, and hiding in an open-air bunker may also be killed.

Based on the range of the Maxim machine gun, this method can be used to strike any enemy target within 4 kilometers, supply lines, military assembly areas and other targets.

Originally, for the Chinese army, which was short of guns and bullets, this so-called super shooting method was just a story. It was good enough for an infantry battalion to have a few heavy machine guns and enough bullets to suppress the enemy with straight shooting. How could there be so many bullets to do the lucky curve shooting?

But for the current Third Battalion, there are nearly 30 heavy machine guns and enough bullets. On average, each heavy machine gun is equipped with 1,000 rounds of ammunition, and there is also a baggage squad to replenish it. There is no shortage of machine guns and bullets.

Li Jiujin crouched down and found Leng Feng along the trench. Leng Feng took a telescope to look at the Japanese infantry who were still desperately digging trenches in his field of vision, and agreed after thinking for a moment.

Anyway, the heavy machine guns were placed on the edge of the trench, with the muzzles facing diagonally upwards. The machine gunners and heavy machine guns were protected by the trenches. Even if it didn't work, at most they would lose some bullets, and his Third Battalion could afford it.

So, amid the rumbling artillery fire, the heavy machine gunners of the third battalion used engineer shovels to dig out a platform for heavy machine guns on the trenches, and they nestled in the trenches, pointed their guns to the sky, and fired.

The fierce gunshots scared the Japanese soldiers who were digging trenches, but they were surprised to find that no bullets were coming.

However, while these Japanese infantrymen were still laughing at the poor marksmanship of the Chinese, the guard squadron of the 2nd Infantry Regiment, a thousand meters away from them, was howling like ghosts and wolves.

It turned out that the Chinese heavy machine gunners had no experience at all. They only knew to point the guns at a certain angle to the sky and then shoot wildly. No one knew where the bullets would eventually fall.

The result of a few random shots was of course not very good. The bullets fell more than a few hundred meters away from the front-line Japanese infantry they wanted to attack.

But, a blind cat really catches a dead mouse!

The 2nd Infantry Regiment Guard was the last unit under Ishiguro Sadanzo. Its main role was not to fight, but to ensure the safety of the regiment headquarters and the mountain artillery squadron, infantry artillery squadron, and rapid-fire artillery squadron.

Therefore, even if two infantry battalions were surrounded and one infantry battalion was beaten to a pulp in front of the Chinese blocking position, Ishiguro Sadanzo did not use this well-equipped infantry squadron with 230 people. It was his last capital and could not be used easily.

This escort squadron had a total of 4 squads. Two squads firmly guarded the regiment headquarters, and the other two squads followed the two artillery squadrons according to Ishiguro Sadanzo's military orders.

The unlucky one was an infantry squad that followed the mountain artillery squadron.

Because the mountain artillery squadron moved forward and retreated, the infantry squad dug a temporary single-soldier shelter.

To put it bluntly, it was a pit that could hold people in, and lying in it could block bullets from the ground.

But what about those who fell from the sky?

Of course, they had no resistance.

28 heavy machine guns fired at least 2,000 rounds into the sky, and at least a thousand of them landed on this position.

More than 10 Japanese infantrymen shed their blood in this extraordinary rain of bullets.

However, Li Jijin didn't know this. He only knew that the heavy machine gun fired once, and the Japanese troops on the opposite side hid for a while and then started digging holes again.

"It's so spicy! The Germans can do it, why can't I? Turn the muzzle of the gun higher and hit me again!" Li Jijin cursed and didn't believe in evil.

A big guy who has never studied mathematics and doesn’t even know what a parabola is, but he knows one thing very well. If you shoot vertically at the top of your head, the bullet will fall on your head. If you adjust the muzzle higher, the landing position will be farther away from the third battalion position. The closer it is, and conversely, the further it is.

However, this kind of experiment cannot be accomplished overnight. It requires enough bullets and time. Fortunately, the third battalion does not lack these.

"First Evolution"

The rain of bullets was scattered more than 1,000 meters away for a while, and as close as 500 meters for a while.

The Japanese can't stand it!

The Chinese are just playing hooligans. How can they use precious heavy machine gun bullets to hit people from a distance of thousands of meters?

Not to mention the Alliance Guards, even the unlucky boy Ishiguro Sadazou was almost 'destroyed' by an irregular hail of bullets.

If someone hadn't bravely knocked him down and pressed hard on his 'frail' body.

"Move the wing headquarters 500 meters to the right! Order the escort squadron to build a position immediately!" Ishiguro Sadazou's ugly face was twisted with anger.

To be honest, the Chinese people's move is actually not that lethal. Unless you are particularly unlucky, you will be 'killed' by a bullet, but you can't help but be frightened! What if that unlucky child is me?

This is absolutely disgusting.

The 'shit' that Ishiguro Sadazou threw viciously at the Third Battalion was thrown back by Leng Feng and Li Jiujin in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, the Japanese were forced to eat several big bites.

At least 20 people were injured or killed in this rain of bullets!

The Third Battalion paid a price of nearly 12,000 rounds of heavy machine gun bullets. This huge loss was heard by Chief of Staff Zhuang Da after the war. After squatting for a week, as soon as it was time to eat, Chief of Staff Zhuang Da arrived.

In the end, Tang Dao pulled out Captain Li Dal, who was heartbroken. This transcendent shooting method will also become one of the training subjects for the heavy machine gunners of the Four Lines Regiment.

However, when using this tactic, there must be more than 20 heavy machine guns that can form a cluster shooting state.

The Si Xing Regiment can be rich in ammunition, but it cannot waste money. This is the basic principle of Chief of Staff Zhuang Da.

However, don't underestimate Li Jijin's angry move. Not only did he kill 20 Japanese soldiers, but with the movement of the Japanese coalition headquarters, they were even closer to a group of special forces ambushing in the wasteland. There is only less than 600 meters to go.

Moreover, the main body of its escort squadron is 500 meters away from the two artillery squadrons in a straight line.

After the war, because of this, Captain Li Dal received an additional 50 ocean reward from Tang Dao.

That was the last straw that broke Ishiguro Sadazou's back!

"Woof woof!" Hammer suddenly barked into the distance.

Tang Dao picked up the telescope and looked at the sky in the distance. A black spot appeared vaguely in the blue sky. As time passed, the roar of the aircraft engine sounded.

"The Imperial fighter planes are coming, we are saved!" A long-lost smile appeared on the faces of the Japanese soldiers in the encirclement that were darkened by gunpowder smoke.

"Mama, I can come back to see you again!" Some Japanese soldiers even cried with joy.

Although there was only one fighter plane, it was definitely a booster for the Japanese troops on the ground.

No one thought it was a Chinese fighter plane. Even if the fighter plane had not jumped out of the clouds, no one could see the sun flag on the tail of the plane.

Yes, that is a Japanese fighter plane.

However, the style of painting in the cabin is slightly different from what the Japanese infantry imagined: "The Imperial Sky Knight is looking at the ground fiercely, holding the launch button of the onboard machine gun, intending to kill all the enemy troops on the ground!"

"Baga! Those idiots in the 14th Division actually fell into the Chinese trap. Damn it, damn it!"

In the sky, Zuo Zuomu was complaining crazily among the Type 96 fighter plane that was about to jump off the sky.

Yes, the fateful Zuo Zuomu is here again.

After receiving an urgent request for help from the commander of the 14th Division Doihara Ken 2nd Division, an Army Aviation Squadron at the Shanxi Province Airport was urgently ordered to take off to provide air support.

However, because of the heavy damage suffered last time over Zhengzhou, the Army Aviation Squadron left at the airport did not have many bombers, and they were basically fighter jets.

Of course, the 96 fighter also has bomb hooks, and it can also hang 200-pound aerial bombs for bombing in an emergency.

Zuo Zuomu, the only remaining seedling, originally did not need to participate in this support operation, but three fighters of the Army Aviation Squadron happened to be temporarily deployed to support the 10th Division of Xuzhou, and the 14th Division requested that an Army Aviation Squadron be dispatched. Otherwise, the current danger of the 2nd Infantry Regiment cannot be solved. More importantly, the current enemy is the Fourth Army Regiment, which suffered heavy losses due to the failure of the last bombing. The order from the front army headquarters was also harshly worded, requiring at least ten fighter planes to be dispatched. .

As a result, Zuo Zuomu, an unlucky boy, was ordered by La Zhuangding to board a plane to fight.

But Lieutenant Zuo Zuomu was not the only one who was frightened and angry!

When the Army Aviation Fighter Squadron heard that Lieutenant Zuo Zuomu was going to fight with them, the pilots from Zuo Squadron Captain on down all had green faces.

Zuo Zuomu's fame has long gone beyond the circle. Not only is he well-known in the Army Aviation, but even the various divisions know that there is such a person in the Imperial Army Aviation.

Surviving various brutal battles? That's nothing. Such people are everywhere in the divisions. The reason why he is famous is that he is a nemesis!

Killing a young elite pilot once may be just a coincidence, but what about the second time? The third time, the entire bomber squadron, including the planes and people, was killed. How toxic do you think this is?

But military orders are difficult to disobey, because Zuo Zuomu, who has been promoted to lieutenant, refuses to fight with him because of his "nemesis" attribute. No one can say this reason, but no one wants to be killed by this guy.

So, the Japanese fighter squadron, which rushed all the way, formulated a new tactic.

With Lieutenant Zuo Zuomu's fighter plane as the arrowhead, nine Type 96 fighter planes followed closely behind, but the distance between the two sides was more than 30 kilometers.

To put it bluntly, Lieutenant Zuo Zuomu arrived at the battlefield first as a reconnaissance aircraft, conducted reconnaissance of the battlefield, and provided information for the follow-up aircraft group, but this guy had no wingman, just a single aircraft.

Once the Chinese side deployed ground anti-aircraft guns, this unlucky kid would be the first target, and there would be no one to share the burden.

As for whether the fighter squadron had the intention of hoping that Zuo Zuomu would be finished quickly, I am afraid that only the parties involved knew it best.

Otherwise, Lieutenant Zuo Zuomu would not be so indignant. He did not even turn off the radio station along the way, and pointed at the name of the 14th Division and cursed for nearly half an hour.

Zuo Zuomu was also desperate. You guys want me to die, so what if I curse you a few times? If I was hit by Chinese artillery shells, I would also curse Doihara Kenji, Terauchi Juichi and other old bastards.

Of course, it was not the last step yet. Lieutenant Zuo Zuomu was still restrained at this time, and his eyes were always patrolling the Chinese land under the wing. The closer he was to the coordinates given in the intelligence, the more alert he was.

Once attacked by the Chinese ground fire, he immediately turned and fled.

As for what the battlefield was like, it was whatever he said. If those idiots were beaten down by the Chinese ground fire, it would just prove their special attribute of being one in a million. It would be the right way to not do these garbage missions in the future...

After the last beating, no one in the Japanese Army Aviation looked down on the ground fire of the Chinese army. Even if it was a bombing, no fighter dared to go below a thousand meters, especially the Four-Line Regiment that had made them suffer a great loss. It was repeatedly reiterated to guard against ground fire.

The Japanese "brave" air knights guarded against the Four-Line Regiment, and Tang Dao did not ignore them either.

Cheng Tieshou's Artillery 2 Company did not participate in the battle from beginning to end, because they had an important task - air defense!

However, this time they did not have the 88 anti-aircraft guns and a large number of machine guns to assist like last time, and ground combat required a large amount of machine gun firepower. Tang Dao had almost mobilized all the heavy machine guns. Cheng Tieshou only had two machine guns plus an MG34 machine gun and 12 heavy machine guns with anti-aircraft machine gun mounts.

With such firepower, if two or three Japanese planes came, they would still have the strength to fight, but if there were more than six Japanese planes, they could only barely resist, at best posing a threat to the enemy planes so that they dared not easily descend.

In a shrubbery on the bank of the Bi River, Cheng Tieshou, with dead branches stuck on his helmet, kept looking at the distant sky with a telescope. Next to him was the Su Luotong twin-mounted machine gun, and the bullet plate had been inserted.

It was already 8:30 in the morning, the sun had already jumped into the sky, and the weather was good today, with extremely high visibility, but Cheng Tieshou's black face was full of solemnity.

The three infantry battalions had been fighting the Japanese for more than an hour and twenty minutes. According to the time estimate, the Japanese aircraft group that Tang Tuanzuo was worried about should be coming soon, but his three anti-aircraft positions of the 2nd artillery company were all far away from the core battlefield. If the Japanese planes dropped bombs on the infantry on the ground, he could not help.

As for why the commander arranged it this way, Cheng Tieshou also knew that he was also a good cook without rice. The anti-aircraft firepower of the 2nd artillery company was limited, and it was impossible to protect such a huge battlefield. Instead of separating and causing the firepower to be dispersed, it is better to clench ten fingers together to form a strong fist.

Position No. 1, which consists of two machine guns, one MG34, and two Maxim anti-aircraft machine guns, and positions No. 2 and No. 3, which consist of five anti-aircraft machine guns, are no more than 1,000 meters apart, firmly protecting the 10 artillery positions of the 1st artillery company.

And the Japanese planes finally came.

It’s just strange that there was only one. The Japanese army actually learned to be smart and sent out reconnaissance planes to scout the battlefield first.

"Call the commander and ask if we should kill him first!" Cheng Tieshou, who turned around and sat on the seat of the Su Luotong machine gun, ordered while adjusting the muzzle.

"Tell the 2nd artillery company not to move rashly, and the 1st artillery company to hide! At the same time, the camouflaged artillery positions can be ignited and smoke." Tang Dao looked at the Japanese fighter planes in the sky that began to descend but were still above 1,000 meters, and gave orders calmly.

On the south bank of the Bihe River, all artillery pieces were covered with dry grass camouflage clothes and pushed into the trenches, and 1,000 meters away from them, an engineer platoon of the new 8th Division's engineer company ignited the dry grass piles one after another. In the misty vision of the lake with thick smoke rising into the sky, thick gun barrels were vaguely visible.

Zuo Zuomu, who was flying through the air at high speed, saw all this keenly!
