Bright Sword: Develop alone, bring back an artillery regiment

Chapter 271

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom!—"

At that time, the devils from the Sanada Battalion were launching a fierce attack on the forward positions of the Second Company. Since they had not been bombarded by artillery, they subconsciously believed that the Independent Battalion had no artillery, or that the artillery shells had run out, so they did not prepare for artillery defense.

At this moment, one after another shells fell suddenly like meteorites that cost no money, and immediately blasted the little devils in the Sanada brigade tottering, killing and injuring everyone.

Some devils who were near the impact of the shells were even thrown out with their weapons.The corpse was dismembered in the air, and bloody internal organs and stumps and broken arms fell everywhere.

In an instant, there were endless screams.

Due to the lack of suitable anti-gun bunkers, after a few rounds of salvos, the casualties of the Sanada Brigade directly exceeded half.

At this time, Sanada Haruki finally realized how stupid his impulsive decision was.

In addition, because it was the vanguard, the Sanada Battalion went into battle lightly and did not carry any heavy weapons, so they went straight to the base of the Independence Battalion.

Therefore, in the face of the shelling of the Independent Battalion, the Sanada Battalion had no countermeasures at all.

Originally, Sanada Haruki marched all the way in a hurry, but to buy enough time to defeat the independent battalion and win the first victory.Unexpectedly, due to the serious disconnection with the main force, there is no chance to ask for help at this moment.

However, Haruki Sanada is also a decisive guy. In order to reduce losses, the old devil immediately gave the order to transfer in after realizing something was wrong...

Sitting in the command post of the Second Company, Wang Chengzhu witnessed the entire shelling process. When he saw the little devil trying to turn around and leave the battlefield, his face sank immediately, and he scolded: "Genzi, pass me the order to let the Second Company launch a counterattack immediately. At the same time , your reconnaissance company should also closely monitor the movement of the devil's army, and report to me at any time!"

"Yes!"

Wang Shugen made a promise, then left the command post, went to the front line and conveyed the order to the second company commander Tian Shuisheng: "Tian company commander, the battalion commander ordered your troops to launch a counterattack immediately, and together with the third company and the fourth company, wipe out all the devils. Eliminate!"

"Yes!"

Tian Shuisheng made a promise, and then, holding a submachine gun, he jumped out of the front trench of the second company first, and shouted sharply: "Brothers of the second company, follow me!"

When the order was issued, the trumpeter next to him immediately jumped into the trench, puffed up his cheeks, and blew the horn for counterattack.

"Di da da, di di di di, di da da, di di di!—"

"Kill!"

"Come on!"

Amid the exciting charge horns, more than 300 soldiers of the Second Company let out a roar of thunder, jumped out of the trenches one after another, and launched a full-line counterattack against the Japanese army with various weapons.

At this time, the Sanada Battalion, which had just been bombarded by artillery fire, was retreating due to heavy casualties.

Tian Shuisheng rushed out with his troops suddenly, startling the devils immediately.

However, the reaction speed of the Japanese army was also extremely fast, and Haruki Sanada immediately realized that this might be an excellent opportunity to break through the defense line of the independent battalion and turn defeat into victory.

And as long as the two armies are mixed together, the bombing of the independent battalion artillery can also be avoided.

Therefore, Sanada Haruki quickly ordered to stop the retreat, and the devils in several squadrons turned around to fight.Trying to defeat the defenders of the independent battalion who took the initiative to counterattack with their most proud hand-to-hand tactics.

In their view, the independent battalion dared to take the initiative to attack, and they were really impatient.

"Stop turning! Attack, attack!"

"Use the hand-to-hand combat tactics that our Great Japanese Imperial Army is most proud of, and wipe out this group of stupid Chinese Eighth Route Army!"

Like a male dog in heat, Sanada Haruki vigorously waved the command knife in his hand, and took the lead to turn around to fight.

The ghost soldiers were chanting the slogan "onboard, onboard", as if this would bring them endless power.

However, the soldiers of the Independence Battalion never thought of bayoneting the little devils of the Sanada Brigade.The bayonet is installed, firstly to confuse the little devil, and secondly to prepare for emergencies.

Just when the little devils were full of confidence and thought that they could easily defeat the Second Company of the Independent Battalion with hand-to-hand tactics.

Chen Xi and Wang Dali each led nearly 300 soldiers to attack the Japanese army from three directions.

After the previous battle, the Sanada Brigade suffered more than half of the casualties, and their strength was no longer dominant, and now they were attacked from three sides.

In addition, the third company and the fourth company were freshmen who had just come up, and they had a lot of light machine guns and semi-automatic pistols in their hands. When they were covered by a burst of firepower, a large number of devils from the Sanada brigade fell down immediately.

"Baga! Damn it! This group of Tubalu really don't talk about martial arts!"

The caliber of the 6.5-type rifle is only 7.92mm, which is much smaller than the [-]mm caliber rifle of the official rifle.

Small caliber, although it means that the lethality to the target is smaller, but its penetration is much greater.

Shooting at close range can easily penetrate the human body and cause damage to the target behind it.

In order to avoid accidentally injuring friendly troops, the little devil usually withdraws the bullets from the barrel when preparing for hand-to-hand combat.

That's right, the little devil retreated the bullets to avoid hurting his own people, not to talk about martial arts.

At this time, in the face of the thunderous offensive from the companies of the Independent Battalion, the little devils in the Sanada Battalion had no means of countering them. They were a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, living targets.

So they all turned around and ran away, no matter how the captain Sanada Haruki scolded them, it was of no avail.

Helpless, Sanada Haruki could only retreat towards the back under the protection of a few guards.

So far, the old devil's plan to defeat the Independent Battalion with hand-to-hand combat has been aborted before it can be launched.

Captain Sanada Haruki took the lead in fleeing, and the other devil soldiers had no will to fight, and like dogs in mourning, they ruthlessly abandoned those injured companions and fled forward desperately.

Tian Shuisheng, Chen Xi, and Wang Dali took advantage of the opportunity to cover up the killing with their troops. They chased them for a kilometer or two and wiped out more than 200 devil soldiers.

Because they were worried about the arrival of the large army of devils, they stopped and the battle was declared over.

So far, the arrogant Sanada Battalion, under the joint counterattack of three infantry companies and an artillery company of the independent battalion, has suffered more than 80% casualties. A reorganized infantry brigade with a strength of more than 1200 people has only less than 300 people.

……

Two kilometers east of Wangjia Village.

Masao Nishiyama is leading the main force and heading straight for Wangjiacun.

At this moment, still far away, he heard the sound of gunfire coming from the front, he couldn't help but his face darkened, and he scolded: "Baga! How could there be gunfire? How dare this Sanada Haruki defy me?" order to launch an attack without authorization.

It doesn't matter if there are no accidents in the army, if there is any accident in the army, I will kill him! "

Originally, Nishiyama Masao gave Sanada Haruki the task of checking the ambush minefields of the independent battalion along the way to ensure the safety of the main force.

After all, the Eighth Route Army's favorite thing to do is to lay an ambush halfway or deploy minefields.

Masao Nishiyama knew that with the fighting power of the Sanada Battalion, it would be very difficult to eliminate the Independence Battalion.

Therefore, in order to avoid causing too many casualties, before setting off, he gave repeated orders, warning Sanada Haruki not to act without authorization.

Unexpectedly, the other party still disobeyed.
