Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 1133 Medicine for Heartache!

In the bombardment battle, the artillerymen of the Four-row Regiment took advantage of the ultra-long range of the Bofors Mountain Cannon, but on the ground battlefield they could only rely on hard work.

日军轰击7连高地的炮兵大队是消停了，但在横山泽的严令中，隶属于第62步兵联队的4门山炮和2门90迫击炮和8门山炮可没停。

At least half of them fell on the 209.1 high ground.

It can be said that this highland offensive and defensive battle has not only tested the courage of the soldiers on both sides.

It's more about the endurance of the commanders on both sides, and the tolerance for casualties. Whoever can't bear it is the loser.

Although the 34 soldiers of two infantry squads and a heavy machine gun group are fighting against the artillery fire, they are still in the trenches anyway. As long as the shells are not very close, at least they can drill into the trenches and avoid the terrible Air wave attack.

Of course, if the shells exploded in the trenches, you can only consider yourself unlucky. It is unreasonable that a mountain cannon shell can kill everyone in a trench more than ten meters long.

In this brutal defensive battle, in 30 minutes, the two infantry squads suffered 11 casualties, 3 of them because a mountain artillery shell fell into the trench and died on the spot, and 4 of them died because of this. The two seriously wounded were carried down the mountain by a stretcher team for treatment.

But only a small half of the casualties were caused by bullets.

But the Japanese army 100 meters before the position had no trenches. Not only did they have to endure the continuous firepower of the Chinese on the position, two light machine guns and one heavy machine gun, submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles, but they also had to suffer from falling on them from time to time. Our own shells on the ground.

The absence of trenches means that there is no way to avoid the murderous waves caused by the explosion of the 6.5 kg projectile of the [-]-type mountain cannon.

In 30 minutes, there were at least six to 70 Japanese soldiers who were blown away by their own artillery shells, and the number even surpassed the number of Japanese soldiers killed by the two infantry squads of the Four-row Regiment who fired nearly [-] rounds of bullets on the position.

If you are injured by a bullet, you still have the opportunity to fight the infection caused by bacteria to see if you can escape the sickle wielded by the god of death.

But being injured by the shell blast, even this opportunity was lost.The violent air waves are enough to shatter the internal organs of the human body. That injury, even after 80 years, can still make all kinds of brickmen scratch their heads, let alone this era.

The commander of the 7th company, Li Jiujin, had already brought his last mobile infantry squad to the high ground of his sharp knife platoon.

The second lieutenant of the sharp knife platoon looked at the 300 highland 209.1 meters away, shrouded in gunpowder smoke and still shaking the sky. He had already tried to persuade his company commander several times to send reinforcements from behind the mountain to strengthen the firepower of the highland and smash this stubborn Japanese army to pieces in one fell swoop.

However, they were blocked by Li Jiujin's ruthlessness as he kept staring at the battlefield.

The defensive battle on the 209.1 high ground was very tragic, but the number of casualties of 11 people was still within the acceptable range of the infantry company commander.

The Japanese army has almost put their cards on the bright side. The 7th company position is their breakthrough point, and the small mountain bunker of 209.1 belongs to the key point, and finally formed a point-breaking situation!

For this reason, the Japanese army frantically invested more than 7 infantry soldiers towards the 10 highlands defended by the 1500th company, and one-third of them were in front of the 209.1 highland.

Leng Feng had called Li Jiujin twice to ask him if he needed reinforcements. If necessary, 80 people from the battalion guard platoon would be ordered to join the 7th company.

At the same time, Leng Feng will ask the regiment headquarters for help, even if they only send 100 reinforcements to their third battalion.

But Li Jiujin considered again and again, and rejected the battalion commander's offer.

He is very clear that the total strength of the Japanese army is as high as 1.9. The first and second battalions on the main position are facing two infantry regiments and three tank squadrons, and they are also bombarded by mountain artillery and howitzers at any time. Bigger than Sanying.

The commander of the regiment holds the guard company and the cavalry battalion as the last mobile unit of the regiment headquarters. The total strength of the regiment will not exceed 550 people. It will be the strongest and last force to fill in when a certain line of defense is breached.

But at this time, it was only the third day after the start of the war, and the commander of the regiment was required to use the last strength in his hands, so what should we do next?
Therefore, now the 7th company can only support it by itself, and wait until it is really unable to support it.

Although Li Jiujin is still oily and slippery now, as he has been by Tang Dao's side for a long time, his state of mind has changed from a year ago.

He is no longer just a soldier, a small squad leader who only manages about 10 people, but a mid-level commander who commands more than 300 soldiers. In ordinary troops, he is at least a battalion commander.

As early as 20 minutes ago, he was thinking, if Tang Tuanzuo was here, what would he do?
Based on his understanding of Tang Dao, Tang Dao would not easily send reinforcements when the position was still under his control and the firepower had not been significantly weakened.

It's not that you don't feel sorry for your soldiers.

Rather, we must not easily let the precious lives of our soldiers become the funeral objects of the crazy Japanese invaders.

The 4000 howitzer fired by the Japanese army to nearly 105 meters behind the position reminded Li Jiujin all the time that the Japanese commander who was facing him was not a normal person at all. Excluding the possibility of his frenzied disregard of the life and death of the Japanese infantry and ordering the 105 howitzer to fire on the top of the mountain.

At that time, instead of two infantry squads and a heavy firepower group with more than 30 people being disabled, that may be the death day of an entire infantry platoon!
Tang Dao is gradually growing into a qualified regiment-level commander. Old brothers like Li Jiujin, who have followed him in bloody battles for a year, are not only getting promoted in rank, they are also growing, learning to stand on a bigger scale. From the perspective of the battlefield, to arrange tactics more reasonably.

Including accepting sacrifices, including learning to save more power with fewer casualties!
If you are reluctant to make sacrifices, the price is more sacrifices!
Just like when the Mouse Mountain in Guangde attacked the Japanese artillery positions at night, Li Jiujin also had the consciousness to bring an infantry platoon to stay behind to fight and cover more brothers to survive!

Tang Dao said sonorously at the meeting of officers above the company level: "For victory, no one can sacrifice, from the commander to the soldier! For victory, all our Chinese troops are always ready to burn themselves Without this kind of awareness, we would not be able to usher in victory!" It has been shocking and affecting all the officers and soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment.

Li Jiujin's insistence was correct.

Never underestimate the madness of the Japanese or how afraid they are of death. The so-called elite Japanese soldiers in front of the camp are nothing more than a group of mountain people and fishermen in the eyes of the upper-class Japanese nobles. Not so much.

Just like Heng Shanze who is looking at the battlefield coldly with a telescope, at this moment, there are no casualties in his heart, only how to conquer the current position.

However, under such a tough offensive, the muzzle bullets on the Chinese position were still shining, stinging his eyes, and at the same time knocking down one after another of the Japanese infantrymen who were trying to advance.

Yokoyama Ze's eyes became colder and colder behind the telescope, and he finally spoke: "Order the front, everyone retreats 150 meters! Get rid of the wounded, and don't evacuate with the remains of warriors who died in battle."

With the long sound of the hand-cranked siren, the khaki-colored Japanese army receded like a tide!
"The little devil of Gou Ri has finally retreated!" The second lieutenant platoon leader let out a long sigh of relief.

On the 209.1 high ground was his precious infantry squad who had just been rewarded by the commander of the regiment. Two of the officers and soldiers, if the two of them died in battle, the loss would be huge.

"Want to run? The person who killed Lao Tzu still wants to run, how easy is that?" Li Jiujin's face flashed a hint of ferocity.

"Order the fire squad's three 60-shot guns and prepare 60 rounds of shells! Also, help me connect to the battalion headquarters and ask for fire support from the battalion artillery company's three howitzers. I don't want much, just 3 shells. Let me bombard the area 30 meters in front of the high ground, and I will make him unable to retreat or enter. Doesn’t the sharp knife platoon have a Maxim heavy machine gun fire team! Fight from the flank!”

"Yes!"

This is the situation now, the Japanese are going to retreat, but the Chinese are not letting in!
The smoke and dust constantly rising in the area about 200 meters in front of the position formed a barrage. Anyone who tried to get into this barrage would be torn to pieces by the shrapnel scattered by the mortar shells.

The reason why the three double-barreled guns equipped by the third battalion are called howitzers by the officers and soldiers is that their 80mm barrels can be used as mortars at high shooting angles, and as howitzers at low elevation angles. The power of the shell is even greater than that of the 80MM mortar, so it has become the most popular infantry support artillery in the entire infantry battalion.

The Japanese army retreating from the area 100 meters in front of the position was directly blocked by this terrifying barrage. The bullets constantly flying from the mountain and the flanks suppressed nearly a hundred Japanese soldiers on the hillside, unable to move, and could only be passively beaten!

If this situation continues, it won't take long. The hundred Japanese soldiers are basically ordered to report to Amaterasu.

If this is the case, this round of attack led by Yokoyama Ze himself in the early morning will not only return without success, but also lose as many as 200 people. In addition to the losses of last night and yesterday during the day, on the small 209.1 highland, the Japanese army lost Will reach more than 500.

Casualties followed almost straight to the main position.

But compared to Heng Shanze who was the last one, Lieutenant Yin Tangxiuer, who has already become the second last one, can ask without blushing: "There are at least hundreds of Chinese on my main front, how about you, Mr. Ze? "

At the peak of the 209.1 high ground, there were only 34 troops. After more than 40 minutes of fierce fighting, the number of troops was reduced from 11 to 23, which is similar to the strength of half a Japanese infantry squad!
This battle loss ratio is simply unbelievable!

Unfortunately, the battle was not over. In the cold words of Yokoyama Sawa who was standing behind the bunker: "In a race, you may not be quick to win, and in a fight, you may not be weak to lose. The real winner is the one who laughs last!" '

After saying this, Yokoyamaze raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. It wasn't frustration but a more terrifying cruelty that filled the gloomy eyes, which made the Major Staff Officer next to him sweat coldly.

Facing the unreasonable and relentless firing of the Chinese soldiers on the top of the mountain, they wantonly shot and killed nearly a hundred Japanese soldiers who were blocked by the mortar barrage and could not retreat. The mountain artillery and infantry artillery that the Japanese army used to fire from time to time suddenly became much sparser. Not a single shell fell for tens of seconds!
"Something's wrong!" Li Jiujin narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Order, each platoon of mortars will attack the Japanese troops on the high ground at all costs. All the platoons of my company on the high ground, except for one infantry squad, will withdraw to the artillery hole as quickly as possible." Li Jiu Jin ordered decisively.

"Also, use red signal flares to remind them of the 209.1 highland, and signal them to inform them that at most half of the infantry squad can be left, and the rest of the people should withdraw from the highland first. If the Japanese use heavy artillery to bombard our [-]th company position, they will bear the brunt! "

"Squad leader Tu, take the brothers from class 4 and evacuate quickly." The security squad leader Zhou Dapeng, whose face was blackened by gunpowder, hurried over and patted the shoulder of Tu Yunsheng, whose back wound was being wrapped by the health worker, and shouted.

"Withdraw? Where to withdraw?" Tu Yunsheng turned his head and glanced at his old comrade-in-arms, and replied somewhat bleakly.

How could the young sergeant not be bleak?

In his 4th squad, in the extremely fierce battle yesterday, only one person was killed and three people were injured, but in the less than an hour's battle this morning, it was almost wiped out.

The shell that landed in the trench took away the lives of three soldiers from his 4th squad and the lives and deaths of two of them are unknown. One's arm was cut off by shrapnel, and the other was swept up by the air wave. Lao Gao kept vomiting blood. I don't know how long they can last.

There was also a soldier who was shot in the helmet by the Japanese army in a frenzied cross-fire. The recruit who experienced such a terrible battlefield for the first time was too nervous. He did not untie the rope of the helmet as he said, but tied it firmly to his chin. .

Although the 6.5mm [-] rifle bullet was bounced and did not penetrate the helmet because of the rounded corners, the huge impact force of the bullet is not what the most fragile neck bone of the human body can bear when it is caught off guard.

The soldier whose head was twisted to a weird angle almost didn't say a word, just fell in the trench like that, and when he was found and rescued again, he had stopped breathing due to a broken neck and obstructed breathing.

Originally, there were 12 infantry squads including him, but at this time there were only 6 of them who could fight, including the health soldiers who came to support them from the platoon.

That is to say, of the original 4 people in the 15th squad, 4 people were killed in battle, 6 people were seriously injured, and only 5 people remained.

Is his class 4 still there?
"Whoa, Brother Peng, Class 4 is gone, and my brothers are gone!" The sergeant, who had always been calm and stubborn, cried like a child.

Big tears flowed down the cheeks that were already in their early 20s, but were tanned due to long-term training, and even more dirty at this time, looking like a little old man.

"Yunsheng, Class 4 is still there, still there, look at Lao Cao and Ma'er, they are still alive and kicking!" The security squad leader comforted his comrades who were half a year younger than him, but tears welled up in his eyes , and the voice couldn't help but choke.

It was only half a year since the establishment of the 7th company, but the group of old brothers at the beginning of the 7th company had a total of hundreds of people. They had already established an extremely deep comrade-in-arms in countless battles, and Zhou Dapeng also died because of the infantry company after the Battle of Southeast Shanxi. He was transferred from the sharp knife platoon to the company headquarters as the squad leader of the security squad after the expansion of the number of troops. He used to be the squad leader of the 4th squad. More than half of the brothers who died or were seriously injured in the 4th squad were comrades who trained and slept with him.
However, after only one battle, it was gone.

Moreover, there were only 18 of his 12 guards, 2 dead and 4 seriously injured.

It can be said that for him, the squad leader of the security guard, he suffered double injuries, and he didn't cry out on the spot, because he stayed by Li Jiujin's side for two months and learned to endure.

For a young man like him, the blow was extremely heavy!

However, no matter how heavy, the age rings bestowed on him by the years are youth, but he is a veteran and grassroots commander who has experienced several battles with 4 years of military experience. He must accept it and continue to command the soldiers to fight.

It's still early for this battle!
The dead have completed their mission, but the living must continue, continue to fight!

"Squad 4 is still here, but they can never go home again." Tu Yunsheng burst into tears, flushing his face full of black smoke one after another.

"Yunsheng, you and your brothers have done well enough, let's take the brothers and retreat first! I will take 5 brothers to stay in the position! I assure you, people are in the position!" Zhou Dapeng repressed the pain in his heart, and comforted him again .

Although the red signal flares on the main high ground on one side indicated that the situation was urgent, and it was uncertain when the Japanese army would cover the high ground with artillery fire, but in the face of the sad little brother, could he have the heart to criticize him more?

He thought that when he made this promise and there was a military order, he would convince the sergeant squad leader in front of him.

However, after all, he still doesn't know his little brother well enough.

Or, he underestimated this young man who shyly handed over a hookah when they met for the first time.

The heart of the young sergeant is tough and fragile!

When Xin was smashed by the Japanese army like porcelain, he would also do crazy things.

This point is actually very similar to Tang Tuanzuo!

When the heart starts to bleed and you can't breathe, watch your enemies bleed and smear their blood on your chest.

That is a rare panacea for heartache!
