Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 1125: An Empty City Plan?
Yin Tangxiuer was fully prepared for this attack!

Two hours of frenzied bombardment preparations were not enough, and red agent gas was used at 2:8!

The entire No. 1 position is filled with yellow-green gas. That weird color makes people feel horrified just by looking at it, let alone surviving in it.

"Yo Xi! In another 20 minutes, when the Chinese are almost poisoned, order the assault troops to attack!" Yin Tangxiuer looked through the binoculars at the mountaintop shrouded in gunpowder smoke and poisonous gas, smiling for the first time.

With the double blessing of artillery fire and poisonous gas, no one can survive in this environment. The idea of ​​the Japanese army lieutenant is actually quite logical.

However, the Lieutenant Commander of the Japanese Army may not have imagined that the Four-element Regiment he faced had changed again a month ago, and the Four-Element Regiment, which received a German armorer's equipment, was at least better than the Battle of Southeast Shanxi in June in terms of equipment and combat power. 6%.

Gas masks are the standard equipment for every soldier!
After seeing the poison gas thrown by the Japanese army, Wei Donglai ordered everyone to wear gas masks and retreat to the reverse slope trenches.

这也意味着700日军在6辆89坦克和10辆94装甲车的掩护下开始进攻时，一线战壕是没人的，甚至连观察哨都没有。

When entering a distance of 400 meters, six 1 tanks stopped and turned their turrets slightly to find the target because they were afraid of the Suluotong 20mm cannon on the No. 6 position. Not going away, the 89 Japanese army was divided into two waves, and began to bend over to enter the position.

Looking down from the top of the mountain, the khaki military uniforms are densely packed, like a group of locusts rushing towards the top of the mountain.

The Japanese attack was unexpectedly smooth!

Nearly 350 people from the two infantry squadrons of the first wave of the Japanese army have arrived at an area less than 150 meters away from the first-line trenches, and basically they are already lying on the ground.

As a result, not to mention heavy machine guns and light machine guns suppressed firepower, the Chinese position did not even shoot rifles.

To put it bluntly, it was quiet.

The Chinese were killed by imperial artillery and poison gas?
If you say that the casualties were heavy, hundreds of Japanese soldiers will believe it, but if you say that there is not a single person left, it is true that even if they were killed, they would not believe it.

This Baga is really unscientific!

At least, Captain Matsui Takumi, who was in charge of the first wave of command, did not believe it.

Chinese, there must be some conspiracy!
But in other words, this is a conspiracy!Because even if you know that the Chinese are playing tricks, what can you do?
Why, the big guys just lie in front of the Chinese trenches and wait?The reason is that no one fired a shot?
Faced with the questioning gazes cast by his subordinates, Captain Matsui gritted his molars and ordered: "Continue to crawl forward, wait until you enter the 100-meter area, and charge with all your strength!"

The 50 meters is actually the most panicky Japanese infantry. According to common sense, suppressing firepower usually appears at this time. After entering the 100-meter charge distance, the infantry only needs 10 seconds to enter 30 meters and throw grenades. The defenders are hard to defend.

However, the entire position was still silent, as if the defenders were all dead!

The 400 Japanese tanks 16 meters away are also a little dumbfounded. What's the situation?The shells are all loaded, you play this for me!

There is no goal at all, I can't play a few blindly!

Thus, the strangest scene occurred on the battlefield of Niangziguan.

The Japanese army invested less than 2 troops in positions 3, 4, and 800 next door, but they fought in full swing. The Chinese machine guns, machine guns, and mortars, and the Japanese grenadiers, infantry artillery, and heavy machine guns over there. You come and go, as if today is the decisive battle, either you die or I die.

However, 700 infantry, plus a dozen tanks, 16 heavy machine guns, and 9 infantry guns were deployed at one time. The main battlefield of Position 1 is as quiet as an autumn afternoon.

However, the Japanese army was not confused by this tranquility, and they even crawled to a distance of 80 meters from the first line of Chinese trenches.

Just give them 10 seconds, no, 8 seconds, and you'll be 30 meters away from where you can throw a grenade.

Even Takumi Matsui, who had been grim-faced 120 meters away, was slightly relieved. No matter what tricks the Chinese played, at least they could conquer this trench.

"Onboard!"

With the sound of the siren, the Japanese soldiers in front of the position stood up straight and began to charge with all their strength!
In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are false!
At least, that's what the Japanese infantry who have entered the full charge stage think so.

Turn the clock back 5 minutes!

"Company commander, let us platoon into the position! Slow down, and the Japanese are about to charge." The platoon leader pleaded anxiously.

"Why are you in a hurry? The first line of trenches is just a small ditch. The Japanese want it, so give it to them!" Wei Donglai, who was crawling behind a lookout post, didn't take his eyes off the binoculars.

"What do you mean, company commander?" The second lieutenant platoon leader's expression changed, as if he had thought of something.

"Hey! The regiment headquarters called just now. I will command the artillery battalion this morning!" Wei Donglai looked at the large number of Japanese troops who gradually started to speed up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "How about it, a company commanding a battalion, this bullshit can last for several years!"

"Haha, next time we meet, Deputy Battalion Commander Pang Dahai will ask the company commander to treat him to a good drink!" The second lieutenant platoon leader heard that the artillery battalion finally stopped hiding, and his face burst into tears. excited.

He had heard for a long time that the Bofors Mountain Cannon newly equipped by the Artillery Battalion was powerful, but he hadn't seen it with his own eyes just how powerful it was.

"As long as we can get rid of the Japanese devils, don't even ask Deputy Battalion Commander Pang to have a drink, ten meals will do!" Wei Donglai grinned. "Go and inform the brothers that each row of 60 artillery pieces is ready, and we will also join in the excitement of the artillery battalion, and hide the rest for me."

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The trenches filled with smoke.

To say the least, two hundred melon grenades were thrown into the trenches, and the Japanese soldiers with long guns just rushed into the front line of trenches with big eyes and big eyes!
Not a single person!

The Chinese staged an empty city plan for them!

But what to say!Anyway, there is a trench, even if it is slightly shallower.

Yes, this line of trenches located 200 meters below the top of the mountain, the deepest part is only 70 cm, and the shallowest part is only 50 cm, which is only enough for an adult to squat or lie down!

Moreover, after two hours of 75 mountain artillery and 105 howitzer ravages back and forth, more than a quarter of the collapsed area, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has basically lost the function of a trench.

Especially, if you shoot at the Chinese in the trenches above, the Japanese infantry can't help but feel bitter when looking at the trenches with high front and low rear.

The trenches dug by the Chinese are really too damaged. The main protection is aimed at the bottom of the mountain. You can’t say that there is no protection at all for threats from the mountain, but there are not many!
Then, with Wei Donglai's order "Fight!", machine guns, rifles, and submachine guns from the second-line trenches poured down.

The dense bullets made the Japanese soldiers hiding in the trenches dare not even raise their heads!

That's right!The 16 tanks of the Japanese army can be regarded as finding the target. The 57mm tank gun and the 7.7mm heavy machine gun fired together to provide fire support for the infantry.

Seeing that the battle finally started, the Japanese troops located 200 meters behind the first wave began to speed up their pace. As long as the tanks and rear heavy machine gun positions can effectively suppress the firepower of the Chinese, the four infantry squadrons of them can rush up without guns or bayonets. Tear up the Chinese!

Because the three strong machine gun bunkers exposed yesterday have been completely destroyed by Japanese artillery fire. The two 2mm machine guns and the 12.7mm Surotong machine gun did not fire, and the Japanese tanks opened fire even more recklessly.

6门57毫米炮和20挺7.7毫米重机枪外加日军步兵在300米外架起的掷弹筒把800米防线上打得尘土飞扬，步兵们几乎是连头都不敢抬！
"Yoshi! Today is the time to defeat the enemy, and our squadron deserves the most credit! Order! Keep going!" Matsui Takumi, who was in the trench, saw the fighter plane and ordered the signal soldier to ring the siren, urging the infantry in the trench to continue forward.

"Company commander, the Japanese are approaching us by 120 meters!" Beads of sweat rolled down the forehead of the second lieutenant platoon leader holding the phone.

At such a close distance, even without binoculars, he could almost see the eyebrows and eyes of the Japanese infantry under the Japanese steel helmet.

"Wait another ten seconds!" Wei Donglai was like a precision machine, staring at the Japanese soldiers on the front line without turning his head.

Ten seconds is very short, but in the second lieutenant's mind, it seemed as long as a century.

Because at least half of the Japanese troops advancing within 100 meters have straightened up and are ready to charge.

"Artillery battalion, open fire! The barrage moves from 70 meters in front of my position to the first-line trench area. Focus on the first-line trench area for 10 minutes!" Wei Donglai, who put down his binoculars, finally ordered.

"My company requests." The second lieutenant quickly repeated Wei Donglai's order into the microphone with relief.

"Weidong, this kid is so ruthless!" Pang Dahai, who was standing by the phone, took a deep breath. "The barrage is only 70 meters away from the second-line trenches, and the shit is also worthy of the brothers of Lao Tzu's Chong Lian."

This tactic of using heavy mortar firepower to support the position was not created by Wei Donglai on a whim, but was practiced by both infantry and artillery in previous training.

But in the live ammunition exercise, even if the infantry were hiding in the tunnel, in order to prevent accidental injury, the artillery company's shelling distance was strictly limited to 100 meters, and it was pushed to only 70 meters away from its own trench.
To be honest, the hearts of the commanders on both sides of the infantry are hanging.

But if this is not the case, how can this wave of infantry, which is still relatively large in strength, be encircled at once?
Wei Donglai originally waited for the two infantry squadrons to enter the first-line trench before asking the artillery battalion to fire, but the second wave of Japanese troops ran away.

Tang Dao's evaluation of Wei Donglai might be perfect: "Wei Donglai seems to be a pure and innocent scholar, but in fact, he is a deadly scholar!"

When he became ruthless, he didn't even let himself go!
Perhaps, all his weaknesses were blown away by the Japanese artillery fire on the unnamed high ground of Mouse Mountain!

"Xu'er~~~" A sharp howling pierced the sky.

Captain Matsui Takumi, who had just left the trench less than 20 meters away, looked up at the sky, his little face turned pale instantly!
He could tell that this was not the sound that an 82mm mortar could make!
"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and the ball of fire that took off 150 meters away from him confirmed his professional ability.

That is a 150 mm caliber heavy mortar, and the heavy mortar company of the Artillery Battalion of the Four-row Regiment has 12!
The destructive power of a 15 kg projectile with a killing radius of 19 meters is no worse than that of a 105 howitzer.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" In the terrified eyes of the Japanese army captain, balls of fire fell on the ground one after another.

"Dodge the gun!" The Japanese army captain roared heart-piercingly, and then rolled and crawled towards the simple trench behind him that he had originally despised.

At this moment, he finally understood why the Chinese had abandoned the first-line trenches. It was because they had artillery and heavy artillery!
The first-line trenches abandoned by them are not up to the standard of avoiding this terrible heavy artillery. It is a sweet bait specially used by the Chinese to lure them forward!
Although the Japanese army captain knew very well that once the simple trench fell into this level of shells, he would die.

But except for the trench that was less than half a meter deep, where could he and the imperial infantry hide?Just lying on the ground, behind the stone?
Don't be ridiculous, under the blast of this kind of heavy artillery, not to mention being impacted by huge dissipated energy, just the stones that are blown away can kill you.

The khaki figures that were constantly being swept away by the air waves were the result of not hiding in the trenches in time.

Accompanied by huge fireballs exploding on the mountain.

On the hillside, the Japanese troops, whether they were in front or behind, frantically poured into the first-line trenches, which was the only bunker they could survive.

The Japanese army in hell was fighting for their own lives, but none of the Chinese soldiers in the second-line trenches dared to watch this spectacular scene.

In fact, the explosion point of the shell was too close to them, as if it fell on their own head. A person staying in a trench as deep as 2 meters is like being in a rough sea. Dust and mud keep falling on the helmet and Wearing earplugs on the body can't stop the continuous muffled thunder from entering the cochlea. The stimulation to the eardrum forced the officers and soldiers of the Second Company to try their best to open their mouths wide to relieve it, even if they ate a mouthful of ashes!
This is still nearly a hundred meters away from the artillery fire area, and one can imagine what the experience of the Japanese infantry in it is.

The Japanese army at the foot of the hill had the opportunity to see the whole picture of this spectacular scene, just as the Japanese army reporter recorded in his diary: "It is a more terrifying scene than the concentrated firepower of the imperial artillery. The shells will create a ball of dazzling fire, especially when dozens of shells explode in unison, it seems that the entire hillside is covered by fierce flames from hell, and my eyes and heart hurt even more when they stabbed 600 meters away!
Because there are more than 700 imperial infantrymen there, can they escape this premeditated heavy shelling by the Chinese?May Amaterasu bless you! "

The Japanese military reporter’s field diary was not allowed to be published until after the war, and the Japanese people did not know that in the mountain in North China, there was such a battle where the Chinese ambushed infantry with absolute heavy firepower!
It was completely crushing, no one could resist!

Because, the 150 heavy forces of the Four Elements Regiment are all hidden in the deep mountains and forests. Not to mention that the Japanese artillery can't find the target to suppress them, even the Japanese reconnaissance planes that have been hovering in the sky for a long time can't find them.

None of the Japanese reconnaissance planes dared to enter the airspace below 2000 meters. If you look down at a height of more than 2000 meters, even with the blessing of a quadruple telescope, you can only see a bird?
It's not the air defense company of the Four Elements Regiment showing great power, but the shadow of a famous tree. The strength of the air defense capability of the Four Elements Regiment is already well-known in the North China Front Army of Japan.

Ever since it was determined that the enemy of the 21st Division was the Four Elements Regiment, the Army Aviation Corps of the North China Front Army of Japan broke out in cold sweat from top to bottom. Captain Sasaki even involuntarily lit three incense sticks in the room to thank the Jade Emperor, the god of China!
Ever since he escaped the catastrophe for the first time, the terrified Captain Sasaki had already thrown away the amulets that his family begged for in private, and began to worship the gods of China. Amaterasu could only cool off for the time being.

Then, the effect of "dead friends never die poor" is extremely remarkable, making Captain Sasaki even more convinced that his choice is not wrong, you see, this time he escaped from the "claw" of the Four Elements Group again, didn't he?

The Army Aviation of the Japanese North China Front Army, which had been defeated several times in a row with the Four Elements Regiment, initially regarded the Four Elements Regiment as its old enemy. However, after the Battle of Southeast Shanxi and the loss of more than ten fighter planes in World War I, the old enemy completely became Japan. The Nightmare of Army Aviation Pilots!

They expanded the size of the fleet time and time again, but the Four Elements Regiment seemed to be born to defeat them, and the ground-to-air firepower continued to increase. Not to mention more and more anti-aircraft cannons, the level of shooters did not increase at all.

Anyone who understands knows that it is the experience value added by the life of the Japanese Army Aviation pilot!
Therefore, the heavy mortar company with 12 150mm heavy mortars continued to roar, and the Japanese army could only watch it up and down. Apart from being helpless, most of them were helpless.

"Ba Ga! Order the front line, retreat immediately, retreat immediately!" After Yin Tangxiuer issued the military order with a livid face, he didn't even look at the front, and led his guard team to evacuate from the frontline trenches.

Without waiting for the post-war report, the Lieutenant Commander of the Japanese Army knew that no more than half of the four infantry squadrons he attacked would survive the bombardment of such a large-caliber heavy artillery!
The cruel Chinese have endured until this time before they move out their heavy cannons at the bottom of the box. It is definitely not just to scare people.

Yin Tangxiuer's command and combat level is average, but he still has basic judgment. Fortunately, he runs fast.

For this bombardment, the heavy mortar company prepared 90 rounds of shells and more than ten tons of ammunition for each artillery squad in advance, and two platoons dedicated to serving them moved for a full two hours!
It took 20 minutes for the Japanese army to bombard the second line of defense to pour 600 rounds, and the remaining 400 rounds began to extend the artillery fire, plowing the entire hillside from top to bottom, and by the way, the trenches dug by the Japanese army 600 meters away were also blown up. A pass.

As a result, the Japanese soldiers still staying in this trench were killed and injured more than 60 people!

But what is more miserable than them are those unlucky bastards who have been abused for 20 minutes!

. . . . . . . .

PS: I forgot to mention that there was no update yesterday, because I stayed up late yesterday morning to watch the Champions League, but Fengyue overestimated her body, slept until 1 pm yesterday, got ready to type, and then found myself in a daze No matter how much I smoked or drank tea, I couldn’t get into the state of writing, and in the end I even forgot to ask for leave!This is so old!
