My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 407
After being reprimanded by the company commander, Gou Sheng was somewhat dispirited, and secretly sighed. Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, he had to walk to the side alone, muttering sullenly.

As time went by, cold winds blew up in the sky, and the dark clouds slowly covered the moonlight in the sky, and those twinkling stars had long since disappeared.

"God's face has changed, it looks like it's going to rain." The company commander said to himself.

At this moment, the temperature dropped sharply, and the already pitch-black night sky became even more invisible. Everyone on the battlefield was shivering from the cold, and they all felt the biting cold wind.

"I have to stay here in this damn weather and blow the cold wind..." Gou Shengzi involuntarily tightened his clothes, tried to shrink his neck into the collar, and began to complain impatiently in his heart.

"Huh? What?"

Suddenly, a bush swayed slightly more than twenty meters away. The companions didn't notice it, but Gou Shengzi, who had a keen sense, noticed the movement.

At first, he also thought it was due to the strong wind, but after a while, he found that it was wrong. The direction of the bushes shaking was completely different from that of the surrounding grass that was bent by the wind.

"who!?"

Bang!
Gou Shengzi subconsciously leaned out and shouted, but unexpectedly the answer was a piercing gunshot.

"There are enemies!"

"Damn it, call me!"

The company commander yelled, and the surrounding soldiers quickly fired. In an instant, there was loud gunshots on the battlefield. Seeing that the little devil had been exposed, he stopped hiding and immediately launched a counterattack.

Da da da da da...!
boom!boom!boom!
The grenade exploded into the sky, and the two sides were crazily outputting firepower in the darkness. The company commander bent over to the place where the dog fell to the ground, and hurriedly asked, "How is the man?"

The comrade-in-arms next to him shook his head with an ugly expression.I saw a blood hole appeared in this little guy's chest, the blood stained his entire chest red, and the bullet passed through his body and took his life away.

Whoa!

The company commander was furious, he pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded the bullet, his face was covered with haze, he raised his hand without saying a word, and fired several shots out of the trench.

The dense bullets accompanied by the flames were stirring in the darkness, as if they had caused a chain reaction. All kinds of explosions along the entire defense line were deafening, and figures of little devils kept appearing in the forests and bushes.

"Damn it, it's really a night attack, what's the situation ahead?" Yao Ma asked as he got out of the bunker while putting on the equipment.

"The second battalion has already caught fire, and the first battalion is approaching. Acting commander, do we want to go up with the third battalion?" The third battalion commander hurriedly asked.

It's hard to imagine that the Japanese would touch them without anyone noticing. Fortunately, the Second Battalion was alerted at the front of the position in advance, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

After pondering for a while, Yao Ma decided to seek stability: "You three battalions don't move, and prepare on the spot. I'm worried that Little Japan is not as simple as a night attack."

Fierce gunfire echoed in the night sky. The soldiers fought in the dark and couldn't see clearly. They could only shoot in the general direction. The gunfire erupted and the entire front line became a mess.

The little devils took great pains for this operation. In order to get close to the enemy without making any noise as much as possible, they dispatched a lot of sharp-edged sharp-edged soldiers to clear out all the hidden sentries first. This is how they got so close to the second battalion. Find.

Moreover, Japan has a large number of people, and the sudden offensive made it difficult for the soldiers to parry, and the front line of defense became precarious.

The company commander held his breath, and the Garand rifle held up in both hands did not shake at all. Although it was difficult to see the target clearly in the dark, the fire snake ejected from the barrel not far away exposed the position of the little devil's firepower.

Bang!Bang!Bang!
He pulled the trigger with his index finger and fired several times. The devil's machine gun stopped firing instantly, and the surrounding soldiers also took the opportunity to throw a few grenades forward, driving back the approaching Japanese soldiers again.

"Old Nine! The devil is about to charge up, why don't you fire the cannon?"

swoosh swish...

The company commander pressed the new clips into the magazine, and poked his head slightly towards the outside of the trench. A few seconds later, another fire snake swept over him, scaring him and quickly shrank back.

The soldier named Lao Jiu replied loudly: "It's too close, the mortar can't reach it!"

"Company commander, there are no more grenades here!"

At this time, the little devil had rushed to a place less than 30 meters away from the position. If the soldiers hadn't resisted desperately, the defense line would have been pierced by the opponent long ago.

"Brothers hold on, reinforcements will be here soon!" The company commander shouted loudly, if this place is lost, the entire position of the regiment will be in danger.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered what Junzuo said last time that mortar shells can be used as grenades, and patted his head annoyedly: "Quick! Bring me the mortar shells!"

"Didn't you say it...it's too close to hit it." Lao Jiu muttered, but he still carried a box of mortar shells as ordered.

As a senior gunner, Lao Jiu is very aware of the range of the American-made M2 ​​mortar. The bullets fall at a maximum elevation angle of about 90 meters, and the devils are too close. If you move to the back of the position and shoot, you may accidentally injure it One's own people, the gain outweighs the loss.

The company commander didn't explain so much, he opened the box and took out a shell, recalled the memory in his mind, pulled out the safety of the shell, and then firmly grasped the body of the shell and knocked the primer hard on the base of the mortar shell.

"Go away!"

The cannonball was thrown out heavily by him, and hit an open space more than ten meters away in an arc.

boom!
The cannonball exploded violently, and the flying shrapnel instantly blew up several little devils who were trying to charge.

"Haha, if you see it, just do it like this, and greet these little Japanese!"

The method of throwing mortar shells as grenades is feasible, and soldiers from many countries used this trick during World War II. However, this method also has certain risks. It is purely used in emergencies as a last resort. It can be used on the battlefield Those who use it in this way are definitely veterans of the battlefield, and they must have fought hard and tough battles.

The specific method of use is also very simple. There is a curved steel wire safety pin on the warhead of the mortar shell. Before use, no matter whether it is fired with the barrel or not, the safety pin must be pulled out.After pulling out the safety pin, the shell is ready to fire. Then find a relatively hard object and tap the bottom of the tail fin of the shell vertically, imitating the shell sliding down in the barrel to release the inertial safety.At this moment, the whole shell is in the state of being fired. After the shell is thrown out, the bullet at the front end of the shell falls to the ground, and the shell can be detonated.

When the veterans saw that this move was feasible, they immediately imitated the actions of the company commander, pulling out the insurance and knocking on the base... Mortar shells were thrown to the front of the line like grenades. The sudden strong firepower made the Japanese army miserable...
