Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 413 Chapter 412, Lao Li: Did I make this trip in vain?
"Get on board..." In the darkness, the Japanese soldiers faithfully carried out their superiors' orders, shouting "Get on board", raising their rifles with bayonets, and charging as fast as they could.

The moonlight was dim at this time, and the Eighth Route Army saw countless black shadows appearing on the battlefield, holding bayonets in their hands, charging desperately, not caring whether bullets hit them.

The result was that as the Japanese charged, more and more Japanese soldiers were shot and fell to the ground. But incidentally, the Japanese front line was getting closer and closer to the position of the third battalion.

"Get on board..." The Japanese soldiers became ruthless and fought desperately, stepping on the slippery ground beneath their feet. Occasionally, some of them fell down, but they would quickly get up and continue charging.

"Hit, hit hard! Machine gun crew, stay where you are and hit hard!"

"Grenade launcher team, explode, explode as hard as you can, explode as fast as you can!"

"Prepare grenades, all grenade throwers, prepare grenades!" On the battlefield, amid the sound of gunfire, commanders at all levels made timely dispatches and never dared to take it lightly.

Although they couldn't see clearly in the moonlight, they still had a rough idea of ​​how many devils there were! If the devils really rushed in, the casualties would be huge.

"The Japs are fighting desperately. I didn't expect that!" On Wangmu Ridge, Li Yuexuan realized that something was wrong and immediately ordered: "Mortar team, pay attention, aim 150 meters in front of the position and bomb!"

"Yes, Captain!" In the darkness, Shi Peican and Zhao Erwa's voices answered, followed by the sound of the order to fire. Obviously, the two artillerymen had already made preparations and could fire at any time. However, the artillerymen of the 14th Regiment were adjusting the parameters in a hurry, but they didn't know if they could catch up with the speed of the Japanese charge.

After Li Yuexuan gave the order, he no longer paid attention to the artillerymen's actions, but picked up a semi-automatic precision marksman rifle, intending to kill some of the devils himself. Unlike others, he needed to look for the devils in the moonlight. With his absolute gun sense and the help of the auxiliary panel, Xiao Li's gun never missed.

Therefore, the sound of gunfire rang out on the north slope of Wangmu Ridge. The gunfire mixed with the sound of heavy machine guns on the mountain and did not seem to be that abrupt. However, at this time, he had another idea in his mind, which was to quickly tinker with the flares to deal with such a situation tonight.

As for the effect of his shooting, it was not very obvious on the battlefield. Because he was not fighting alone, but a main battalion was firing, and there were 6 heavy machine guns to help suppress the enemy, and 27 light machine guns were responsible for short bursts of fire. The firepower was too strong.

However, no matter how powerful the firepower was, it could not stop the Japanese's desperate charge! Although many Japanese fell on the way to the charge, the remaining Japanese were approaching the position step by step. Some Japanese soldiers who were shot, even if they were seriously injured, still dragged their injured bodies, holding the Type 38 rifle, and crawled on the ground little by little. Their fighting will was very strong!
However, no matter how strong the fighting will is, it cannot withstand the bombardment! Look, in the enemy's charging team, there are continuous mortar shells and grenade launchers exploding, which can take away a circle of enemy soldiers at once. At the same time, the light of the explosion also exposed the enemy's position to the muzzle, and dense bullets were often fired at the area around the explosion circle.

"It's clear, it's less than 100 meters away, all shotguns, fire, fire, fire..." On the position, as the Japanese approached, a commander finally gave the order to fire the shotguns.

The 14th Regiment has few shotguns, and each company is only equipped with two. They have always been used as weapons for ambush. I brought them here today because I didn't want to leave them at the base. I didn't expect that they would be used on the battlefield today!

Boom, boom, boom... The six shotguns located at the corner of the position had already been adjusted to a new position when the Japanese launched the boarded charge, with their muzzles pointing directly to the south.

When the order was given, the gunners pulled the trigger cord hard, causing the shotguns with fixed angles to roar and directly spray out long snakes of fire.

Huh... There seemed to be wind blowing in front of the battlefield... Ah... After the wind blew, there seemed to be screams coming...

At this time, looking at the charging Japanese troops, they were miraculously defeated by half. The Japanese troops that were originally spread all over the front line of the third battalion now had 6 gaps. On the ground in the gaps, there were countless Japanese soldiers covered in blood.

"Great, this is so useful, reload it quickly, and we can fire another wave!" The soldiers in charge of the shotgun were so excited. They didn't expect this clumsy old thing to be so powerful! No wonder, no wonder Minister Zhang and the division always emphasize this matter. It turns out that this is really powerful when used in the right place!

Clang... the crude breech block was pulled open, the steaming copper shell casing fell out, new shotgun shells were stuffed in, and the breech block returned to its position... the soldiers of the shotgun group skillfully loaded the new shells.

Creak... A handle was pulled up, and the buckle that locked the turntable at the bottom of the barrel was unlocked. The gunner turned the muzzle to an angle, then pressed down the handle, firmly locking the angle of the barrel.

Then, amid the roar of machine guns and rifles, the shotgun once again spewed out snakes of fire, bringing with it a storm of steel balls.

"On board... On board..." Perhaps the darkness obscured the Japs' vision, or perhaps the Japs were too busy charging to take care of other things, so the surviving Japs still maintained their charging posture and speed.

However, the gunfire on the battlefield was not as dense as before, and the grenade launchers and mortars stopped after firing several rounds. All this was because the number of Japanese soldiers who could still attack was less than one-tenth of the previous number!

"Board... Board..." Finally, the Japanese soldiers who were still charging realized this problem, because the familiar shouts became less and less frequent, and some of the Japanese soldiers had no one of their own within dozens of meters around them!

"How could this happen?" The lone attacker was still thinking about this question when he felt his whole body shaking. He was being fired upon.

Those Japanese soldiers who could still see their own people around them still maintained their charging speed. When they saw the Eighth Route Army's position just a few dozen meters ahead, several iron lumps with wooden handles flew towards them.

Boom boom boom... Amid the sound of grenades exploding, these Japanese devils also fell to the ground.

Time passed slowly, and the sound of gunfire gradually decreased until no one fired anymore.

"This, should be over, right?" Someone on the battlefield asked softly.

"Don't talk, keep quiet!" someone whispered.

"I'm finally here!" On the railway, Li Yunlong and his men finally arrived. But as he listened to the battlefield gradually becoming quieter, Li felt annoyed: "Did I make this trip for nothing?"
