The War of Resistance

"Company commander, look, the flag has moved! The flag has moved!" a soldier pointed forward and shouted.

There is a small hill there, and there is their observation post on the hill. According to their company commander's instructions in advance, if the observation post waves a red flag, it means there is an enemy situation.

If you shake it twice, you will find a small group of Japanese troops. If you shake it more than two times, you will find more Japanese troops.

"You are already a big boss, why are you panicking?" Hearing the soldier shout, the company commander scolded him dissatisfiedly, and then pointed the telescope at him.

Naturally, he could see more clearly with a telescope, and he saw that the soldier in charge of the lookout was waving the flag desperately, while the one next to him had his back turned to him, and he was monitoring the enemy's situation.

"Three times, four times, five times, six times, seven times - why are you still waving this?" The company commander was a little panicked when he saw the lookout post waving the flag like this, but fortunately, the flag did not waver in the end. The eighth time.

Then he saw in the telescope that the two lookout posts he had arranged on the high point lowered their flags and ran back from the only open space on the top of the mountain.

The two lookout posts were arranged in advance by the company commander. They were on the main position, which was just a trench, and the hillock was five hundred meters in front of the trench.

That is to say, just look around and tell the truth and then run back. They can't just stay there and wait for the Japanese army to set up the heavy machine guns, right?

Therefore, there was nothing wrong with the handling of those two soldiers!

And an hour later, the Japanese heavy machine guns on the hill where the two lookout posts were staying started ringing "holes" and "holes", and the bullets accurately hit the front line of the company's trenches. There are "chirp", "chirp" and "chirp" sounds everywhere.

This is the fire cover before the Japanese attack.

At this time, the Chinese officers and soldiers hiding in the trenches became happy instead of surprised.

"Damn it, everything is ready for me! But no one is allowed to shoot! Wait for the little Japanese infantry to come up and listen to my orders later!" The company commander shouted while looking at the small hill in front of him.

On both sides of the company commander, there was a whole platoon of soldiers hiding in the trenches. Although everyone was holding a rifle, no one showed his head.

As for the remaining two platoons, they showed up and watched, but they were just waiting and watching. The Japanese infantry did not show up. Their heavy machine guns could hit wherever they wanted.

The Chinese position was built on a hillside. The so-called position was a waist-deep trench.

As a defensive party, they naturally have to choose an area that is conducive to their own defense. There is an open land in front of them. There were originally thick bushes on the open land, but after the company established a position here, the bushes have been given over to them. Most of them were knocked down.

However, under the order of the company commander, they were "lazy" even when cutting the bushes, leaving more than ten pieces uncut, so the bushes became in pieces.

There are hundreds of soldiers in a company. Even if the Northeast officers and soldiers did not have enough to eat two months ago, they will have enough to eat after being transferred here.

So they left a handful of bushes on the left and right uncut, and that was not because they were really lazy.

When the Japanese army launched an attack on their position and encountered fierce resistance from them, they would naturally look for a place to hide, so those bushes that were still standing were their inevitable choice.

Then, the Northeastern officers and soldiers in the position did not need to look for the Japanese troops, they could just shoot into the bushes that were still standing.

So the handfuls of bushes that were still standing were the traps they specially set for the Japanese army.

right! trap!

Just like the hill where the Japanese heavy machine gun is screaming in joy is actually a trap designed by them using the terrain!

Opposite this company's position is a high point, which is similar in height to the Northeastern Army's position. So where can the Japanese army place their heavy machine guns if they don't?

Even though the hill was covered with lush vegetation and the heavy machine gun was among the lush vegetation, the Japanese heavy machine gun must have been set up there. The company commander had just confirmed it with a telescope.

Compared with rifles, heavy machine guns can shoot at ultra-long distances. It's summer now, and if the company commander hadn't predicted the psychology of the Japanese army, it would be difficult for those being shot at a distance to spot the heavy shooter. Machine gun position.

"Company commander, the Japanese have begun to attack!" a soldier shouted.

The company commander turned his gaze to the front. At this time, the Japanese infantry finally showed up. Since they were far away, they couldn't clearly see the details of the opponent's body. However, some Japanese soldiers' helmets were shining with metal in the morning sun. The luster comes.

As for the other Japanese helmets, there was no flash. It was probably because the helmets were wrapped with grass or net bags or something.

If we count from September 18, this war has been going on for eight years. Not only the Chinese army is learning war during the war, but the Japanese army is also doing so.

Although the Japanese army is still domineering, they also know how to make certain changes, such as the helmets are also used as cover.

It is said that a senior Japanese general was shot dead when he was inspected by Chinese soldiers in the distance because of the reflection of his helmet.

But now, leaving aside the helmets, the Northeastern officers and soldiers in the trenches no longer saw the shiny Japanese bayonets. It seems that the Japanese army also treated the bayonets with anti-reflective treatment.

The heavy machine gun of the Japanese army was still firing "holes and holes", and the scattered shots sent dust flying along the edge of the trench.

However, the Chinese officers and soldiers in the trenches did not take the heavy machine gun too seriously.

As for the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun, although the caliber of the bullets used is almost the same as that of the Maxim heavy machine gun imitated by China, the momentum created is much worse than that of the Maxim heavy machine gun.

The reason is that when the Japanese army designed this kind of machine gun, they took into consideration that Japan's small domestic resources could not consume too much ammunition. Therefore, the design of this heavy machine gun was not intended to have the power of pouring out ammunition wantonly, but it focused on accurate shooting. In long-distance shooting, it is more accurate than a rifle.

However, most of the Chinese officers and soldiers are now hiding in the trenches, and naturally they are not worried about the precise shooting of Japanese heavy machine guns.

Under the cover of the Japanese heavy machine guns, the advancing Japanese troops were getting closer and closer.

There were more than twenty Japanese troops who came up, and they were not standing close to each other. Nowadays, let alone the Japanese troops, even the Chinese army rarely charges in a sea of ​​people.

Just after the Japanese heavy machine gun bullets swept over their heads, the company commander stuck his head out and looked forward. At this time, the Japanese troops were only about 200 meters away from the position.

"Everyone, prepare! Remember your goal!" The company commander suddenly shouted, using the sound of Japanese heavy machine gun fire as the "background music."

He wanted to order a fight. From this distance, with their shooting skills, it was still somewhat safe to hit the Japanese.

And as he shouted, there was a "clatter" in the entire long trench. That was when the soldiers finally pushed and loaded the ammunition.

The company commander also pushed the gun bolt, and then he held the gun with both hands but tilted his neck and put his right ear closest to the edge of the trench, as if he had a stiff neck from sleep. When he heard the Japanese heavy machine gunfire, it finally became distant. At some point, he suddenly leaned out of the trench and shouted: "Hit!"

There was an entire platoon of soldiers to the left and right of the company commander. More than thirty people showed up and pointed their guns at the hillock in the distance where the Japanese heavy machine gun was mounted. Then the platoon gun fired. There was a "pop" and "pop" sound.

And just in the sound of their gunfire, the Japanese army's roaring heavy machine gun suddenly stopped!

Yes, there may not be sharpshooters among these soldiers who are perfect with every shot, but there are so many of them that they use a whole platoon to shoot at the heavy machine gun that the Japanese army placed among the lush vegetation on the mountain. After all, there are still bullets. Hit the Japanese machine gun shooter!

At the same time that the Japanese heavy machine gun went silent, the Japanese troops attacking up the mountain were shot by two other platoons of Northeastern Army soldiers in the trenches.

Some Japanese soldiers were shot and fell to the ground, while others hurriedly hid behind uncut bushes. Others were shot but were only injured and then struggled and rolled on the ground.

The Northeastern officers and soldiers in the trenches were still shooting. Regardless of whether they were lying down or rolling, they really didn't pay much attention to the exposed Japanese soldiers. Most of them fired their bullets at that group (cluster). Among the bushes.

Regardless of whether he could hit the Japanese soldiers hiding behind them, even if he couldn't kill them, he would definitely frighten them.

However, there was at least one squad of soldiers in this company still shooting at the hill in front.

Can they see the Japanese troops? Of course not!

To be honest, is it for nothing that the vegetation is lush and green?

They couldn't see the Japanese army at all, but they knew the approximate location of the heavy machine gun. In short, they couldn't let the Japanese army fire the heavy machine gun again. If the Japanese heavy machine gun sounded, the Japanese soldiers down the hillside would probably rush in. Come up.

This was just the prelude before the war was about to begin. The Japanese troops retreated after more than ten minutes, leaving more than ten corpses on the open ground in front of the company's position.

"There are just so many little devils here, look at how hard you were waving the flag, like a fucking windmill!" After the victory, some soldiers scolded the two lookout posts with dissatisfaction, but there was also a hint of something in their words. A joy of victory.

"So a few little devils?" A lookout post replied dissatisfied, "There are hundreds of them coming here, they are so black and white, but they are not rushing up now!"

At this time, on a mountain peak that could barely be called a mountain behind the Japanese army, Shang Zhen and Li Qingfeng were still observing the situation in the distance honestly. They could not hear anything from the front line. Gunshots.

"Did you see that the little devil brought two cannons on the road?" Li Qingfeng pointed to the road in the distance and said.

"Where?" asked Shang Zhen, who was looking elsewhere with a telescope. He briefly put down the telescope and glanced at the direction Qingfeng Li was pointing, and then pointed the telescope in that direction.

They were two Type 92 infantry guns of the Japanese army. They were less than one meter tall with protective shields. They had short and thick barrels and the wheels were made of iron instead of rubber. Of course, from a distance, they looked more like wood. of.

The two cannons were being towed by two horses towards the front line.

Shang Zhen frowned.
