Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

Chapter 72 Completely crazy!

Li Yunlong led the second company from the center into the attack position.

The Japanese field artillery positions were located on the reverse slope of the mountain.

Therefore, if Li Yunlong and his soldiers wanted to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese artillery positions, they could only launch a feint attack upwards.

But fortunately, it was night and pitch dark, and the Japanese guards were almost all around the artillery positions. There were only four groups of visible and hidden sentries within a range of 300 meters.

If it were daytime, if Li Yunlong led his troops 500 meters into the artillery position, they would definitely be discovered by the Japanese.

Although Li Yunlong had led the second company into the attack position, he did not launch an attack immediately.

The first company on the left wing and the third company on the right wing have entered the attack position, but the guard platoon that made a detour to seize the hilltop has not yet reached the designated position.

but!

The Japanese seemed to have noticed that the sentry had disappeared, and sent five Japanese soldiers holding Type 38 rifles to come over and check the situation.

The five Japanese soldiers were getting closer and closer. If they moved forward, they would definitely be discovered by the Japanese.

He who strikes first gains the advantage, and he who strikes later will suffer the consequences, so Li Yunlong decisively ordered to open fire.

"beat!"

With a loud roar, Li Yunlong was the first to pull the trigger at a Japanese soldier.

"Da da da…"

A volley of bullets swept past, and a Japanese soldier twitched as if he had been electrocuted and fell into a pool of blood.

The remaining four Japanese soldiers were hit by a hail of bullets before they could react.

Almost in an instant, the five Japanese soldiers were beaten into sieves, with blood holes all over their bodies.

The grenade-throwing team, consisting of soldiers holding rifles, threw MK2 grenades one after another, and dense grenades whizzed past.

In an instant, the grenade exploded in the air above the Japanese artillery position.

"Boom boom boom..."

The short and continuous explosions were deafening, and the flying shrapnel whistled down with the breath of death. The panicked Japanese artillery and infantry could not find a safe blind spot.

In an uphill battle like this, the egg-shaped grenade has a disadvantage: it is likely to roll down the hillside and injure one's own people.

There is no such concern for wooden-handled grenades, as they are not likely to roll over easily.

Therefore, Li Yunlong asked the soldiers to delay for 2 seconds before throwing grenades.

Taking advantage of the Japanese's confusion, Li Yunlong and his soldiers jumped up from their attack positions. The veteran elite soldiers who rushed to the front held submachine guns and fired while shouting.

Dense rain of bullets suddenly poured towards the Japanese artillery positions, sweeping down a group of Japanese artillerymen who were running around in panic.

As soon as the firing started in the center, the first company on the left wing and the third company on the right wing almost did the same thing, first throwing a round of grenades, and then launching an attack with submachine guns.

Since it is a sneak attack, we cannot take it slow, but must act quickly and decisively.

Before the Japanese have time to react, send them back to Japan to meet the locusts.

……

"idiot?"

"Who dares to attack the Locust Army's artillery positions?"

Inside a circular artillery bunker, Major Junzo Idei saw dozens of Imperial artillerymen and infantrymen being blown apart and their bodies riddled with bloody holes. He was furious, but at the same time, he broke out in a cold sweat.

If he hadn't been so battle-hardened and quick-witted, jumping into the bunker the moment he saw the incoming grenade, he would have been a corpse by now. "It's the Chinese army."

An artilleryman reported to Major Junzo Idei.

"Baga, of course I know it's the Chinese army."

Major Junzo Idei cursed angrily, holding up his samurai sword and shouting hysterically:
"Fight back, fight back immediately, kill all the Chinese!"

Although the weapons in the hands of the Japanese artillery were very poor, there was an elite squadron of the 20th Division around the artillery responsible for guarding and protecting it.

In addition, during the day, they cleared an area of ​​more than ten kilometers and massacred some villages. Reconnaissance planes conducted reconnaissance of the surrounding areas and found that there were no other armed forces around except the Chinese troops in Yangquan City.

The Japanese army fought all the way from the Peiping-Tianjin area to Yangquan, and especially after entering Shanxi Province, the Chinese army almost collapsed at the first touch.

This made the Japanese extremely arrogant, thinking that no one would attack the artillery position in the middle of the night. So even though there was a Japanese squadron protecting it, the vigilance of this Japanese infantry squadron was very lax. While the artillery was firing there, the infantrymen of the Japanese infantry squadron were eating supper there.

There are two divisions of locust troops around. Who dares to attack the locust army's artillery positions?
Are you tired of living?
But after all, it was an infantry company of the Type A Division. Although the first wave of attack by the New 1st Regiment killed dozens of Japanese artillery and infantry, the Japanese elite reacted quickly. The moment they were attacked, they crawled and hid, rolling into the machine gun bunkers.

“Da da da da da…”

The Japs' light and heavy machine guns roared wildly.

Caught off guard, more than a dozen soldiers of the New 1st Regiment were hit by machine gun bullets and fell in a pool of blood.

But the flames from the Japanese light and heavy machine guns also exposed the location of their firepower points.

The next second, more than a dozen quick-reacting veterans of the New 1st Regiment opened fire at the Japanese machine gun fire points with their submachine guns.

The dense rain of bullets swept over, and the Japanese machine gunner was instantly shot into a sieve. The continuous fire suppression caused the Japanese machine gun assistant to be hit as soon as he touched the machine gun. Dozens of grenades flew into the Japanese machine gun bunker. Amid the dense explosions, the Japanese wailed.

After the Japanese firepower point was destroyed, the soldiers launched another attack.

Although there are still many Japanese riflemen, these Japanese riflemen have excellent shooting skills.

However, after the ambush of the Sakata Regiment and the Battle of Wangdongbao, each veteran of the New 1st Regiment had fired at least dozens of bullets, which made the veterans' submachine gun skills have a qualitative improvement.

Even a sharpshooter like Li Yunlong doesn't need to aim at all, he just relies on his feeling and raises his hand to shoot.

Every time he fired a magazine, a Japanese soldier fell down, and then he could open fire immediately, while the Japanese could only fire one shot and then pull the bolt again.

Under the suppression of firepower that was reduced to a strike, they quickly rushed into the Japanese artillery position.

Seeing the large number of Chinese troops rushing up to the position with strong firepower, the Japanese artillery and infantry finally couldn't hold on and turned around and ran away.

Seeing three Japanese soldiers running away in front, Li Yunlong, who was almost in the front, fired a long burst of shots. The muzzle of the gun jumped and spurted out tongues of fire. The fire swept over in a fan shape, and the three Japanese soldiers fell forward.

Then, Li Yunlong, holding the PPSh, kept changing his shooting methods, single shot, continuous shot, and burst shot, shooting in a dazzling alternation.

Within a visibility of several dozen meters, no Japanese soldier could escape his fire blockade.

At the same time, the soldiers went completely crazy, shooting at the Japanese whenever they saw them, repaying blood with blood and tooth with tooth!
The pre-war mobilization of the soldiers by the company commanders of each battalion completely ignited the soldiers' fighting spirit.

……

At first, Junzo Igei wanted to fight back and kill all these Chinese troops.

But when the Eighth Route Army attacked the artillery position with absolute firepower advantage.

Junzo Idei knew he was no match for his opponent, so he immediately called for help.

The moment he finished the call, Junzo Idei was beaten to a pulp.
