The beacon of youth

The sunset glow penetrates through the gaps in the canyon, reflecting the desert and the grassland beautifully. At this moment, the tens of thousands of horses and horses on both sides of the enemy and the enemy have no one to observe whether the scenery is beautiful or not. On the battlefield of desperate fighting, only survival is the most important thing. main.

Before dark, the leader of the bandit, Wu Siman, mobilized his most elite direct line forces to break away from the position. Not to mention, this group of bandits is indeed different from the previous ones. Their combat effectiveness is very strong. The striker is getting closer and closer to the main position.

Political commissar Wang Chengde was a little anxious: "Dayong, what did Wei Gang do? Why didn't he fire? Should we call to remind him?"

"No, if Wei Gang can't even grasp this point, he doesn't have to be the commander of the machine gun battalion. I believe Wei Gang will seize the opportunity, and we'll just wait and see."

The anti-aircraft machine gun position of the Independent Brigade of the People's Liberation Army.

The more than sixty anti-aircraft machine guns placed on the mountainsides on both sides are all ready. The battalion commander Wei Gang and the instructors each lead a team. The shooters use the sights on the machine guns to firmly lock the bandit cavalry The deputy shooter held the long ammunition chain in his hand, looked at the bandits down the mountain with his eyes, but listened hard to the orders from the battalion commander.

The soldiers are in a hurry, in order to be able to fight this battle well, the whole battalion has put in a lot of effort. As for the bullets, the shooters have rubbed every bullet with oil, so that there will be no failure in the battle. No stuck.

The grinning bandit cavalry rushed forward, facing the rain of bullets. The heavy machine guns and mortars on the ground were fighting against the bandits. The Czech and Tom gun barrels were shot red. The plop of being shot down continued.

The soldiers on the machine gun position were anxious, because they were in such a good position, it should be the best position in the whole brigade, so they acted condescendingly.You can catch all the bandits with just a stretch of your hand, why didn't you open fire, why didn't the battalion commander give orders.

The anti-aircraft machine gun has a large caliber and a long range. It is within its firepower range of [-] to several hundred meters. This distance can completely fire. Please, the battalion commander, give an order quickly.

300 meters, 200 meters, 100 meters. 50 meters, oops, oops, the bandit cavalry is only 50 meters away from the forward position at the foot of the mountain, and the infantry is about to fight the bandits with grenades.What's wrong with the battalion commander?My heart is about to jump out.

The bandit's horse team was about to charge up, and the bandits on the horse hid their bodies next to the horse's belly to avoid the bullets fired by the soldiers.Only the saber gleaming coldly in his hand could tell that someone was on the horse.

The habitual bandits are really good at riding.It's like playing acrobatics, as if the body is attached to the horse, no matter how the horse runs and shakes, it just won't fall off.

But is all this useful?Using the riding and knife skills of cold weapons to fight against hot weapons is bound to be a tragic end.

The bandit cavalry approached 50 meters to the forward position, and stepped up in a few steps.Seeing that the infantry was about to fight the bandits with hand grenades, what Wei Gang had in his hands was the few seconds before the enemy. This veteran soldier's grasp of the opportunities on the battlefield had reached an extreme.

"Fire." Wei Gang roared fiercely, and then he grabbed the small handle of an anti-aircraft machine gun.Aiming at the bandits at the foot of the mountain, he pulled the trigger fiercely.

The body of the anti-aircraft machine gun with the tripod shook, and a faint blue smoke spewed out from the muzzle. Beyond the blue smoke was an orange flame more than one meter long.

Boom, thump, thump, anti-aircraft machine gun projectiles with a caliber of more than ten millimeters spewed out.

During the War of Liberation and the Anti-Japanese War, China’s weapons and equipment were very complicated. For example, the dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns in the Independent Brigade were brought back by the whole brigade’s efforts. Army, so the model is very messy, there are all kinds of brands, but most of them have a caliber of more than ten millimeters, like the Hatzikis used in the Kuomintang army, the caliber reaches 13.2, such a machine gun is very scary when it hits the human body of.

The biggest disadvantage brought by the difference in model and caliber is that it puts a lot of pressure on logistics. It is difficult to get ammunition, and it will be hard to replenish it if it is exhausted. Because the caliber is different, it cannot be used with each other. This is why Li Yong has always The real reason for the reluctance to use machine gun battalions.

There are tens of thousands of people in the brigade, and there are only so many anti-aircraft equipment. If there is a situation in the air, they all rely on these dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns to provide food. Once the bullets are gone, these precious anti-aircraft machine guns are not as good as infantry. An ordinary rifle and grenades in it.

Fortunately, the Kuomintang's air power is not strong, and the bandits have never even seen a plane, so the machine gun battalion has the opportunity to frequently use it to deal with ground targets.

It's not easy to save some money. It's fine to use anti-aircraft machine guns casually, but now you have to use them if you don't want to. The artillery has been seconded by the superiors, and the firepower of the machine gun battalion is extremely important. We must fight for the elite of the bandits. All wiped out, go all out.

The sound of the anti-aircraft machine gun in Wei Gang's hand was an order, and the dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns distributed in the two positions of the whole battalion all opened fire. The firepower was like heavy rain falling from the sky, pouring on the bandit cavalry.

There was a boom in the position on the mountainside, and the "boom" seemed to blow up a metal storm on the flat ground. The projectile with a muzzle velocity of about 1000 meters hit the front of the position in a few tenths of a second.

The infantry's grenade had already been raised, and the commander was about to yell to drop the bomb, when suddenly the bandits and war horses tens of meters away in front suddenly changed, from people and horses to a bloody mud all over the place.

It's just blood and mud all over the place. Anti-aircraft machine guns are different from ordinary rifles and submachine guns. This is a guy specially designed for shooting planes. Instead of shooting flat targets to hit ground targets, that is to kill chickens with a sledgehammer.

One of every five rounds of anti-aircraft machine gun ammunition is armor-piercing, one burns, one explodes, and the other two are ordinary ammunition. One long burst can penetrate a [-]mm thick steel plate. And what effect can appear on the body of the war horse?

A few rounds of ammunition can break a person down the middle, and a dozen rounds can smash a person to pieces. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that it turned into a bloody mud, but a fact on the battlefield.

Starting at 50 meters from the forward position, blocking the head, cutting the tail, and hitting the middle, Wei Gang commanded the machine gun battalion to cover the entire bandit attack area with firepower.

A bullet penetrated the horse's belly, and before the bandit on the horse could react, there was a bang, the horse's belly exploded, the internal organs rushed out, and the horse rushed forward again under the action of inertia A few meters, then plopped down, the rider struggled to his feet.

This is a reaction only after being beaten and confused. The first action of a dead horse should be to lie on the ground to avoid bullets. On the battlefield where bullets are flying, it is not courting death to just stand up in such a daze.

How long has this kid been on his feet?Whether it was one second, two seconds or three seconds, a few bullets shot into this idiot's body. In a blink of an eye, the bandit whose horse was killed and his horse turned into nourishment for the earth, and it was impossible to collect the corpse. .

Boom, thump, thump, the battalion of machine guns is firing non-stop, and the sound of a single machine gun can still be heard clearly. If dozens of such weapons are fired together, there is no way to hear it clearly. It can be heard in the ears of the soldiers. It was another sound, and I felt it was a burst of bangs, boom, boom, boom.

A battlefield in Nuo Da, starting from the place where the bandits attacked, should be thousands of meters away, and all of them are within the firepower of the machine gun battalion. More than 60 anti-aircraft machine guns are like more than 60 deadly iron brooms together. Show off your power, sweep over and over again, every time you sweep over, you will bring corpses all over the place.

The soldiers of the Machine Gun Battalion threw off their hats and jackets, and fired with their shirts off, sweating all over their bodies. The battalion commander Wei Gang shouted while shooting: "It's fun, it's so damn fun, how long will it take me?" I have never fought such an enjoyable battle, the whole battalion has it, no need to save ammunition, just fight hard.”

The bandit cavalry in the fire net cried, shouted, and cursed. Under the overwhelming firepower, it was very difficult to even go back, let alone rush to the communist army's position.

want to go back?Want to get out of the blocked gap?The task assigned by our brigade commander is to wipe out all these elite bandits. How will you complete the task of our old guard after you go back?

The machine gun fire is so powerful that even a bird cannot fly over, how can people and horses run back! !

Usman's cronies, known as the elite, were frightened. The comrades who were talking just now were beaten to pieces in a blink of an eye. The psychological quality was not good enough, not to mention fighting, and they were frightened.

I don't want cattle and sheep, I don't want my mother-in-law, I don't want anything else, the most important thing is to keep a little life.

Ferocious, too brutal, the actions of the machine gun battalion frightened the soldiers on the independent brigade's side. The soldiers stopped throwing grenades and stopped firing their guns. Everyone muttered:

"Hey, the guys from the Machine Gun Battalion are too ruthless. There are still corpses left of the bandits we killed. If you look at the ones who died in their hands, none of them were whole, they were all torn to pieces."

Li Jiangguo, the commander of the first battalion, Ma Quanyou, the commander of the second battalion, and Ma Changsheng, the commander of the third battalion, all opened their mouths and couldn't close their mouths. Li Jiangguo, the commander of the first battalion, muttered to the instructor beside him:

"Good guy, Lao Wei almost scared Lao Wei back with my grenade. If you throw it on my feet and blow me up, who is to blame? Is he also responsible for Lao Wei?"

The instructor laughed fiercely: "You deserve it if you blow yourself up. I guess Lao Wei was beaten by our brigade commander. This shot is so powerful, Lao Li, you and I have contributed a lot to this effort." It's all gone, let's see the performance of their machine gun battalion."

As long as the independent brigade has binoculars in their hands, they will hold them up to see the situation on the battlefield at this time, even if they are a platoon-level cadre, they will act like a big chief.

Like it, like it. (to be continued..)
