I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

South of Huangping Town, at the position of the Second Anti-aircraft Artillery Battalion of the Special Forces Regiment.

Guo Youqing commanded all the soldiers in the battalion to position 18 Suratong ST-5 machine guns horizontally and fired at the Japanese soldiers, making them lie prone on the ground, holding their heads and screaming in pain, without any ability to fight back.

All the soldiers in the battalion naturally laughed heartily.

They fired their cannons one after another, while shouting arrogantly:
"Little devils, do my artillery shells taste good?"

"Damn it! You dare to come to our special forces regiment? Aren't you tired of living?"

"You damned little Japanese, are you itching for trouble? Are you feeling better now?"

……

About 5 minutes later, seeing that all the Japanese soldiers were lying on the ground, continuing to fire would basically be a waste of shells, so Guo Youqing immediately ordered:

"Stop shelling, move positions, and prevent the Japanese from counterattacking with artillery fire!"

Following his orders, the soldiers of the Second Anti-aircraft Artillery Battalion took action immediately.

Under the command of the company and platoon leaders, they worked together to carry the machine guns and artillery shells to a nearby hilltop where a gun position had been prepared in advance.

Although the Sorotron ST-5 machine gun is slightly heavier than the Oerlikon 20mm machine gun, one gun weighs only 80 kilograms.

After a little disassembly, a squad can carry one door and move quickly among the mountains.

……

While the soldiers were working hard, the company commander Xu Chao rushed over and asked:

"Captain, do we not need to move?
This fight has been going on for about 5 minutes, right?

If the Japanese had the strength to fight back, they would have opened fire long ago, right?
Judging from the gunfire on the road, they have clearly deployed their heavy artillery. Adjusting the muzzle shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

Guo Youqing glared:
"Are you the battalion commander, or am I the battalion commander?
Just move when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?
Our machine guns are prepared for air defense, but we can’t let them be destroyed before we even see the Japanese bombers!
Move now to be prepared!"

Seeing that the battalion commander was angry, Xu Chao could only nod obediently, say "oh", and then run to carry the artillery.

……

At the position of the 1st Battalion of the Special Forces Regiment, Xu Wei saw the Japanese being forced to retreat by the fierce artillery fire from his own side. Naturally, he was very excited. He shouted and ordered the artillery in his battalion to continue their fire.

They chased the retreating Japanese soldiers and bombarded them indiscriminately all the way.

It was not until they could no longer hit the Japanese that they stopped firing, cleaned the gun barrels, and prepared for the next battle.

At this time, he did not forget to ask instructor Zhao Shihong to take people to count the casualties and rescue the wounded.

After a while, the other party came back and reported to him:

"Old Xu, our battalion has just fought for an hour and 122 people died, and 73 were seriously injured.

Almost all the soldiers who died were shot in the head."

Hearing this, Xu Wei couldn't help but curse:
"Damn it! Even though we were hiding in the trenches, we still suffered so many casualties. The shooting skills of these Japs are damn accurate!

As expected, they are worthy of being the elite of the Class A division!

Don’t underestimate it! "

He then ordered:
"Old Zhao, send someone to report our situation to the head of the group."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Zhao Shihong nodded and prepared to make arrangements.

Suddenly, Xu Wei called him again:

"No need, Lao Zhao, let's report after we finish this battle."

Zhao Shihong couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said quickly:
"If the Japanese don't attack, there's no telling when this war will end!"

"Hey, look, aren't the Japanese attacking?
Our chance to take care of them has come again!"

Xu Wei put down the telescope in his hand, smiled and pointed to the front of the position.

Zhao Shihong quickly picked up the telescope around his neck and took a look, then he screamed:

"My goodness, are these little devils crazy?
Without any artillery cover, you're just charging towards us with bayonets pointed?

Is their commander out of his mind? "

How could he know that Uchida Hiroshi was not crazy, but was just doing what he knew was wrong because of Yoshino Hideki's order.

……

Since the Japanese were rushing over to die, Xu Wei would of course help them.

He immediately shouted an order:

"Comrades, the Japanese are coming again. All companies, be ready and fight them hard!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers roared in unison, filled with murderous intent.

Just now, they haven’t had enough fun yet!
After arranging his soldiers and preparing them for battle, Xu Wei checked the ammunition situation of the entire battalion.

They found that in just a short while, they had consumed at least 40% of their battalion's ammunition.

He immediately frowned and arranged a correspondent to find Yang Yuanshan.

……

After a while, the correspondent ran to Yang Yuanshan with sweat all over his forehead and reported:
"Commander, we have more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers in front of us, and they are launching a bayonet charge on our position. Our battalion commander hopes that the regiment can arrange for someone to send a batch of ammunition over!"

Yang Yuanshan nodded and immediately ordered his guard Zhang Xiaohe:

"Xiao He, go and order the reinforcement of the 9th Regiment's Captain Wei to help deliver a batch of ammunition to the First Operations Battalion."

"Yes!"

Zhang Xiaohe agreed and took action immediately.

……

Not long after, 3000 young and strong men, led by Wei Junfeng, commander of the 9th Supplementary Regiment, carried ammunition boxes and rushed to the ridges on both sides of the Zhengtai Road.

Yang Yuanshan saw it through the telescope and his lips curled up slightly.

With a thought, he took out a batch of ammunition from his system warehouse and replenished it in the valley where the ammunition was temporarily stored.

……

In front of the position of the 1st Battalion of the Special Forces Regiment, the Japanese soldiers holding guns formed a skirmish formation, howling and rushing forward frantically.

Seeing that this group of guys had already reached the range of their infantry guns and recoilless guns, Xu Wei immediately shouted an order:
"All artillery, fire at full force, bomb them hard!

I want to see if these sons of bitches feel pain or not!"

Following his order, all the infantry guns and recoilless guns of the first battalion immediately opened fire crazily, pouring shells at the Japanese.

In the Japanese charging team, people began to fall down one after another, and screamed wildly.

Broken limbs and blood splattered all over the battlefield.

This ridge was turned into a hell of flesh and blood.

However, the long-term influence of Bushido ideology made these Japanese soldiers dare not show the slightest sign of cowardice.

I don’t even dare to care about my own life or death!

Instead, he had a ferocious look on his face and rushed forward fearlessly.

Even because of fear, their adrenaline was secreted rapidly, causing them to charge at an even faster speed.

……

Seeing his own men suffering heavy casualties under the enemy's artillery bombardment, the Japanese regiment commander Hiroshi Uchida was so angry that he wanted to draw his sword and kill people.

He couldn't help but roared:
"Baga! Why do the Eighth Route Army have so many artillery shells?

Didn't the Special High Police's intelligence say that they had no where to get ammunition supplies and had to rely entirely on battlefield spoils to fight?

Could it be that some idiot commander of the Locust Army dropped a large number of artillery shells on them?"

The Chief of Staff of the Wing, Kitayama Yilong, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but reveal a bit of heartache on his face.

Quickly suggested:

"Your Excellency, the losses from such an all-out charge are simply too heavy!
How about we let the warriors crawl forward?

This can effectively reduce our casualties!"

Uchida Hiroshi shook his head grimly:
"No! The artillery of the Eighth Route Army is all indirect fire. Even if we crawl forward, we cannot avoid casualties!
We should order the warriors to charge faster!
As long as we rush into the Tubalu position one or two hundred meters, their artillery will not dare to continue firing. "His words do make some sense, Beishan Yilong can only nod his head and sigh:

"Okay. Now it all depends on how the warriors perform!"

……

When more than two thousand well-trained elite soldiers charge forward together at the risk of their lives.

The Type 92 infantry guns and recoilless rifles of the 1st Battalion of the Special Forces Regiment could not stop them.

So soon, the Japanese assault team arrived about seven or eight hundred meters in front of the first battalion's position.

The Japanese officers immediately commanded the machine gunners to find a relatively high ground, set up the machine guns, and prepare fire cover.

However, before they were ready to open fire, the sound of MG-42 general-purpose machine guns tearing cloth could be heard from the first battalion's position.

"Zizzizi...zizizi..."

More than twenty general-purpose machine guns mounted on tripods, each firing hundreds of rounds per minute, swept towards them madly.

The fire whips, like the god of death's scythe, killed the Japanese soldiers who were charging like wild boars one after another.

At this time, dozens of Type 99 light machine guns equipped in the first battalion also began to spit bullets.

"Da da da... da da da..."

Countless bullets were flying around on the battlefield, leaving the Japanese soldiers with nowhere to hide.

This slowed down their charge speed instantly.

In the trenches, the soldiers of the first battalion holding rifles could not help cursing:

"Why are you running so slowly?
Are you a turtle?
Come up quickly and let grandpa take you back home!"

The Type 400 rifles in their hands had an effective range of only meters. They had no way of firing at all and could only watch the gunners and machine gunners eat meat. They felt very depressed.

……

"Your Excellency, the artillery and machine gun fire of the Eighth Route Army is too fierce!
The warriors can’t get through at all!”

Seeing his men falling down like wheat being cut, a captain of the Japanese army ran back to find Uchida Hiroshi and cried in grief.

But once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. How could Hiroji Uchida give up the charge?

He slapped the other person in the face and shouted angrily:
"Baga! You are a coward who fears the enemy and is afraid of fighting!
You have tarnished the glory of the Locust Army of my Fusang Empire!

You don't have the determination and courage to be loyal to His Majesty Tian Huang!"

Upon hearing this, the captain was so angry that he wanted to fight back and beat him up.

He thought to himself: This is all bullshit, you can just use it to fool the ordinary soldiers below!

You even lied to me, a lieutenant colonel and battalion commander. Are you still human?

Uchida Hiroshi had no idea what he was thinking. Seeing that his own casualties were indeed heavy, the charging soldiers also became a little afraid. He immediately became furious and suddenly drew the officer's sword at his waist, shouting loudly:

"Brave warriors of the First Regiment, the Eighth Route Army thought they could stop our advance with artillery fire and bullets.

Now, let us tell them that the Imperial Army is invincible!

It’s a blast! Onboard!!!”

Then, he took the lead and rushed forward.

At this moment, the captain in front of him was dumbfounded.

I thought to myself: Your Excellency, Captain, I admit that I misunderstood you just now.

You are not only a human being, you are also a warrior!
……

When Hiroshi Uchida led the charge, the guards and non-combat personnel around him immediately followed with guns in hand.

Seeing this, the Chief of Staff Kitayama Yilong next to him was suddenly confused.

I thought to myself: Wow, Captain, I didn’t expect you to be so brave.
This really impressed me!

The next second, he was in trouble.

I don’t know whether I should follow the other party and rush forward.

Go ahead, it’s too dangerous!

If you don't charge forward, you will definitely be settled by the other party later.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the captain who had just come back to complain.

With a murderous look, he ordered the other party to follow him.

Then he gave the order to the telegraph operator in the regiment:
"Hurry up, send a telegram to the brigade headquarters.

Tell the warriors of the First Regiment that the entire regiment has launched a hand-to-hand charge against the Tubalu, and plans to destroy the enemy with extraordinary courage! "

After giving the order, he gritted his teeth, drew the saber from his waist, and rushed forward with his teeth bared.

Of course, he was very imposing, but his steps were not that fast.

Unintentionally, he ended up at the end of the charging team.

……

I have to say that the effect of the colonel regiment commander Hiroshi Uchida leading the charge was quite good.

The Japanese soldiers, whose morale was low and whose charge speed had slowed down a lot due to the fire from the light and heavy machine guns of the 1st Battalion of the Special Service Regiment, suddenly burst out with courage from the bottom of their hearts.

Shouting "Aboard!", "Aboard!", they charged forward desperately.

……

Faced with the Japanese's reckless charge, the gunners of the 1st Battalion of the Special Forces Regiment fired their gun barrels until they were red, and the light and heavy machine gunners fired their gun barrels until they were hot, but they still could not stop them from advancing.

The soldiers couldn't help but marvel:
"These damn Japanese devils are really trying to kill us!

Do you think we are cowards? "

Seeing the Japanese getting closer and closer, the battalion commander Xu Wei immediately ordered:

"Open fire, everyone! Hit hard!"

At this moment, he couldn't care less because the enemy had not yet rushed into the effective range of their Type 38 rifle.

Anyway, the regiment has plenty of bullets, so it doesn’t matter if we waste some bullets to provide long-range fire coverage!
Hearing his order, the soldiers, who had been impatient for a long time, took action immediately.

The Type 38 rifles and Type 89 grenade launchers were fired at full power, madly firing at the Japanese soldiers who were rushing towards them.

But at this point in the battle, no matter how fierce the artillery fire or how dense the bullets were, they could not stop the Japs.

They stepped on the corpses of their colleagues, determined to fight to the death, but still moved forward at full speed!
……

At the 1st Battalion’s position, instructor Zhao Shihong saw this crazy scene and turned pale. He couldn’t help but said to Battalion Commander Xu Wei:

"Old Xu, these little devils are too crazy!

We have fought a lot of tough battles, right?
This is the first time I've seen someone charging forward with such momentum!"

Xu Wei nodded, with a look of shock on his face.

Such a formidable opponent is indeed worthy of respect.

But the next second, he gathered his thoughts and replied viciously:

"No matter how crazy they are, their flesh and blood bodies cannot stop our bullets!"

Zhao Shihong nodded slightly, but then asked with some concern:

"Old Xu, what if the Japanese really rush into our trenches?
The Japanese are quite good at hand-to-hand combat. Just look at their momentum and you will know that they are not to be trifled with!
Our regiment seldom fights hand-to-hand combat, and we don’t train much in normal times. If it really comes to this, I’m afraid we won’t be their match!

What’s more, we are short of manpower.”

"Afraid of shit!
Lao Zhao, you forgot that our soldiers are all equipped with twenty-shot box cannons!

If the Japanese dare to charge into our trenches and engage in hand-to-hand combat, they will definitely die!"

Xu Wei is full of confidence.

Hearing what he said, Zhao Shihong's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded repeatedly.

It is then suggested that:

"Right! Then should we let the soldiers relax a bit and set a trap for the Japs?"
