The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 686 The battle is over
The resistance of the National Army in the ruins became weaker and weaker. The Japanese army continued to advance their positions. The remaining National Army had no choice but to gather their existing firepower together, and they were able to barely resist the Japanese attack. However, Under the suppressed firepower of the Japanese army, their resistance was like a lone boat in the storm.

It was shaken so hard that it could capsize at any time.

Bang bang bang!The sound of the Japanese gunfire was dull and intermittent. The Japanese army swept over with burst fire, sending bullets one after another into the ruins. The wooden houses were hit with wood chips flying high.

The vanguard of the Japanese army reached the front of the ruins and hid under the door panels and steps, hiding their bodies well.

Two Japanese soldiers took out a grenade, knocked it on the ground, and threw it hard. It landed in the ruins and made a huge noise, putting the already swaying lone boat in danger.

However, a figure that surprised the Japanese army appeared.

It was Lao Qi. He was stunned by the two grenades thrown by the Japanese army. After he recovered, he saw that the Japanese had already moved in. He glanced at it and saw that there were more than 20 people. If this continues, guard The national army in the ruins must not be able to defend it. Lao Qi gritted his teeth, leaned out of the impact point, and aimed his gun at a Japanese soldier.

The Japanese did not expect that there was someone on their flank. The gun rang out and a Japanese fell down. Then, Lao Qi threw two grenades as fast as he could, killing three Japanese.

Only then did the remaining Japanese soldiers react and fire back quickly. Bullets whizzed through his head. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and evaded quickly enough, but the Japanese invaded. After all, he was the only one, so it was hard to have both. Among the four enemies, the Japanese approached Lao Qi's hiding place. Instead of attacking Lao Qi, they used grenades in an attempt to blow him up.

A grenade flew to Lao Qi's leg, and there was a loud noise. Lao Qi couldn't feel the existence of his left leg, as if something pulled his leg, and then there was no feeling at all.

After throwing two grenades, the Japanese soldiers ordered two Japanese soldiers to move over, one on the left and the other on the right. The muzzle of a crooked light machine gun was pointed at Lao Qi's hiding position. If there was any abnormality, they would attack him with the utmost force. Pull the trigger quickly.

Two Japanese devils came closer. They held their guns and carefully approached the impact point where Lao Qi was hiding. They saw a Chinese man covered in blood. His face was stained with blood. After seeing the two of them, he revealed his mouth. Not exactly white teeth.

bang.

The roar was deafening, and the eyes of the few soldiers hiding in the ruins were splitting when they saw this scene.

"Revenge the platoon leader!"

Several soldiers were stimulated by this scene and aroused the blood in their hearts. They were like fearless heroes, facing the Japanese army's hail of bullets and desperately fighting back against the Japanese army. However, the fire suppression caused by the crooked handle was really terrifying. In addition, the shooting ability of the Japanese machine gunners is quite good. It is impossible to withstand the hail of bullets caused by the Japanese machine guns.

Under the hail of bullets from the Japanese army, the defense lines of several Chinese soldiers quickly collapsed.

The speed of collapse was beyond Xia Yuan's expectation.

He expected that the Du family home would be lost, but the loss would at least happen tomorrow. Today was their first battle with the Japanese army. No matter what, they would not collapse so quickly, but this was the reality.

The battle here only lasted about an hour. At this time, Xia Yuan, together with the veterans and Niu Qian, had just eliminated the Japanese grenade squad and seized three grenade launchers and more than ten grenade launchers. Before the shells could be rejoiced for a long time, the gunshots from the direction of Du's house were heard becoming increasingly sparse, and the sound of grenades exploding was almost non-existent.

"What's going on? Is the battle over?" The veteran asked with a frown on his face as he held a grenade.

"Come on, let's go take a look!"

Xia Yuan didn't lock a lock or clean the battlefield. He led the two of them quickly toward the Du family house, crossed a street, and came to an open space, where they saw a scene that surprised the three of them.

The battle is over. Several Japanese soldiers are cleaning the battlefield, and some Japanese soldiers are using shovels to dig and strengthen bunkers.

"The battle is over!?"

Xia Yuan, who had experienced strong winds and waves, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat, but quickly calmed down again.

He was very unclear as to why the battle was going on so fast. These people were all brought out by him, and they had no lack of training on weekdays, and they even participated in actual combat. Why did they suddenly collapse so quickly now.

Xia Yuan couldn't understand, and his mind felt like it was tied in a knot.

He believes that half a month of daily training, night raids on Japanese positions, and supplies, how can I say this half month of life, can also greatly improve their combat capabilities.

But they couldn't even stop the Japanese troops from two infantry squads.

Seeing that there were less than two Japanese infantry squads on the ground, Xia Yuan led three people and quickly launched an attack on the Japanese troops on the ground.

With three grenades, he eliminated two Japanese machine gun fire points and a relatively concentrated shooting point of the Japanese army. With three grenades, he eliminated at least five Japanese Japs.

This kind of damage is already quite impressive.

The US military used human sea tactics, and the Japanese army used tactics.

The Japanese were smart and cunning. Militarism had instilled a combat mentality in them since they were young. These Japanese also knew that when gathered together, grenades could cause huge damage, so during the battle, they spread out widely. It is very difficult to kill more than three Japanese soldiers with one grenade.

Veterans and Niumae conducted covering fire on the flanks, attracting some Japanese firepower.

Xia Yuan quickly threw the grenades. From a distance of a hundred meters, the grenades seemed to be equipped with positioning and tracking, and they accurately landed on the heads of the Japanese soldiers, making a roaring sound.

Behind the Japanese army, Er Lengzi called for a squad of support. On the south side, the Japanese army's offensive intensity was relatively weak, not like that on the north side.

One shot from the front, one shot from behind.

The Japanese troops in Du's house were surrounded by them.

There was only one Japanese soldier left, Captain Cao, who had not yet died in the battle, holding a rifle nervously with a somewhat panicked look on his face.

"Baga, we are surrounded by Chinese people, damn Chinese people!"

The Japanese commander Cao was not stupid. The Chinese people came from where they came, blocking the road they came from. Their other infantry squad and grenade squad did not make any movement at all, but every individual was Can imagine what happened there.

He remembered that before leaving, not only the squadron commander arrived, but also the group commander. He seemed to attach great importance to this place and even told them.

Attack forward fearlessly and capture the Chinese positions. You will be the heroes of the empire.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that these words contained malicious elements. Whenever the Major came to the front line, it must be that this place was very special.

But now, he seems to understand.Judging from the gunshots fired by the Chinese, there were no more than five people in number, but their other infantry squad was not even seen by the Du family house. There was no movement now. Just now, he paid special attention to the rush of the infantry squad. Bursts of gunfire were heard from the past direction, but only more than 20 minutes passed before the gunfire disappeared.

The grenade squad also brought great help to their attack, but when the fighting on their side was fierce, a series of explosions also sounded from the rear, and then the Chinese appeared in front of them.

Captain Cao thought clearly about everything. Why did Dujiazhai change three squads in one morning? Why did the squadron leader and group leader come to the front line to supervise the battle? Obviously, it was related to the special casualties here.

The relationship during this period is inseparable from the several Chinese people who are shooting against them now.

Boom, those two explosions exploded directly at the nod of machine gun fire, killing two machine gunners on the spot. The soldiers who replaced the machine gunners were all shot dead with one shot. He had never experienced casualties at this speed. It passed. At this moment, Cao Chang had figured everything out.

rear position.

Headquarters of the [-]st Regiment.

The leader of the [-]st Regiment is having a meeting with Wang Yaowu.

Every moment, scouts will bring back the latest combat news about the front line.

"The Du family residence is lost!"

The commander of the [-]st regiment frowned and looked at the division commander after listening to the news brought back by the scouts.

Wang Yaowu also frowned. The soldiers who retreated from the front line brought back the news that the two houses they were holding on to were Dujiazhai and Sunjiazhai. One was in the north and the other was in the south. Yesterday, the Japanese army conducted a wave of reconnaissance and probing attacks. , after being repelled by them, they expected that the Japanese army had grasped the basic situation of the national army's front line.

Today, their offensive focus will definitely be on these two houses.

As news continued to come back from the battle in the morning, it confirmed their inference that the focus of the Japanese attack was indeed on the Du family residence.

"They have fought very well. The defensive force of Dujiazhai is very weak. Xia Yuan concentrated the heavy troops of the company in the middle room area and the Sunjiazhai on the south side. The defensive force of Dujiazhai is only one squad, and the Japanese army fought for a while. In the morning, they didn't even attack their reserve team. In the afternoon, they increased their offensive intensity. They held Du's house for the whole morning before they were broken through by the Japanese army. This kind of performance is already quite impressive."

Wang Yaowu was silent for a moment, and then he spoke, his tone of voice unable to conceal his admiration.

With a small number of troops, he was able to rape more than [-] enemies, which was equivalent to wiping out a small squad of Japanese troops, and he was able to eliminate and repel the enemies as quickly as possible. The speed even shocked the Japanese troops.

In this case, it is acceptable for the Du family house to fall.

After this battle, Xia Yuan's combat ability was proved.

After listening to the division commander's words, the leader of the [-]st Regiment nodded and said: "Sir, Commander, this Xia Yuan is really powerful. He is worthy of being the man who led the ghost into the Japanese enemy's positions. His stabbing ability is really good. I have been in the army for many years, and I rarely see him. Such a soldier."

After a pause, he added: "No, it's not rare, it's almost non-existent."

Not long after the scout brought back the news, another scout ran back and brought back new news.

Dujiazhai was beaten down again!
This news was shocking. The position was lost and it was impossible to fight back with a small number of troops, but the defenders of Dujiazhai did it.

"It would be better if Xia Yuan could be discovered earlier. Maybe breaking into Luodian is not impossible."

Wang Yaowu said with emotion.

Although I did not go to the front line to see it in person, just from the pieces of news sent back by the scouts, we can see how fierce the battle for the Du Family House was. The Japanese army failed to knock down the Du Family House despite repeated attacks. After most of the day's attack, they failed to make any progress.

The arrogant Japanese army suffered a loss in Du's house.

Moreover, the garrison force of Dujiazhai was no more than one squad.

Although the 51st Division has just arrived in Luodian, it has fought with the Japanese no less than ten times. According to intelligence, the Japanese army in Luodian has about one division, while the national army is several times larger, with three to five divisions. The 51st Division also launched several active attacks on the Japanese troops in Luonian, but they were all hit by fierce Japanese firepower and suffered heavy casualties.

The defense line did not even advance 50 meters.

Daytime is the time for the Japanese army to attack. Their attack is to attack the national army positions with the cooperation of artillery and aircraft.The Japanese army's attack was much stronger than that of the Chinese army, which not only caused them heavy casualties, but also caused them to lose most of their positions.

After fighting for several days, after the fall of Baoshan, Luodian's attack gradually stopped. They withdrew from Luodian and defended the perimeter. However, the Japanese army wanted to fight out and encroached on their positions bit by bit. Every time they fought, casualties appeared on both sides. Huge casualty ratio.

Even if they win a battle, it is a tragic victory with a huge casualty ratio.

Until now, Xia Yuan's appearance suddenly turned the situation around.

According to the scouts, the casualties of the Japanese army and the casualties of the Dujiazhai defenders had reached an astonishing six to one ratio.

What is this concept? Since the Battle of Songhu broke out, the casualty ratio between China and Japan has fluctuated around nine to one. Sometimes it is ten to one. However, in Dujiazhai, the casualty ratio has undergone a shocking reversal. When converted into national In terms of military casualty ratio, it was a terrifying sixty to one.

In other words, sixty people had to be sacrificed in order to get one casualty from the Du family's defenders.

Although this conversion is not equivalent, it is almost the same.

In short, the battle situation in Dujiazhai has exceeded Wang Yaowu's expectations.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army organized another powerful attack.

This time, Xia Yuan decided to give up holding on to the Du family home.

The Du family residence is like a huge coffin. Once you enter, it is difficult to get out.He no longer had a reserve team, and he transferred a squad that came to support him, abandoned the Du family home, and took the veterans, Niu Qian and Er Lengzi to fight guerrillas outside.

In this way, the battles between the two sides seemed to have reversed positions. The Japanese army defended the Du family's residence, while Xia Yuan and the others attacked the Du family's residence. His most powerful combat ability was undoubtedly the attack, not the blocking.
