Rise From Eight Hundred

Chapter 70 Gunshots Exploded

 For Koizumi Reicheng who has already rushed 120 meters.

Of course, it was impossible for him not to hear the gunshots that sounded like exploding beans and the earth-shattering screams coming from his native language that suddenly rang out in the warehouse.

Moreover, he could hear the clear gunfire of the Maxim heavy machine gun, the Czech light machine gun, and the terrifying submachine gun, which are the standard weapons of the Chinese. However, the sound of the imperial 38-gun was only a few shots. He was drowned out by gunshots like exploding beans.

At that moment, out of the animal's instinct to protect itself, he wanted to stop immediately. Every pore in his body seemed to warn him of the huge danger ahead.

However, the gunshots belonging to the 38-year-old in the building continued, "Mama!", "Mumuzi!" and other tragic screams calling for loved ones at the last moment of life, even penetrated the high walls and passed clearly into everyone. In the ears of the running Japanese infantry.

The imperial warriors encountered the terrifying light and heavy firepower of the defenders in the building, but they were still fighting bravely, and that should be the last desperate move of the Chinese!

Of course, what’s more important is that although the Chinese in the building are also shooting desperately, their accuracy is insufficient because the floor is suppressed by as many as 8 heavy machine guns in the front fortifications 500 meters away.

 It did not cause much damage to the skirmisher line that was stretched to more than five meters between each person. In the charge distance of more than 100 meters, only about 20 people fell. That was a completely acceptable loss for the infantry in a desperate charge.

  There was not much time for Koizumi Reicheng to choose. The Japanese front-line commander who followed the infantry to charge once again roared the charge slogan of "on board".

 The Japanese infantry were forced to give up their last chance to correct their mistakes.

Tang Dao's carefully designed ambush tactics inside the building, as the Army Lieutenant Colonel said, were not only about killing a large number of Japanese troops entering the building, but also a trap full of bait.

 The bait is the prey itself.

When he saw the Japanese infantry shouting "board" again and rushing forward like a tide, the Army Lieutenant Colonel looked calm and ordered to the signal soldiers around him: "Let Tang Dao kill all the Japanese in the building. He wants to The one who was waiting is here.”

“Yes!” The signal soldier ran to the stairs and pulled one of the ropes, causing the copper bell tied in the stairway to ring wildly.

 That is a temporary device that facilitates the headquarters upstairs to issue orders to each floor immediately. It is very simple, but very effective.

 "Bang! Bang! Bang!" followed by continuous gunshots.

The remaining Japanese infantry slumped behind their last bunker one by one. Until the last moment, they failed to throw a grenade to extinguish the bonfire lit in the center of the hall.

The blazing fire illuminated their figures, but the difference in light completely hid the Chinese soldiers who were ambushing in the fortifications in several corners of the hall in darkness.

 That was definitely one of the main factors in their downfall.

Perhaps it’s not that they didn’t want to, but that the firepower network consisting of one Maxim heavy machine gun, three light machine guns, and thirty submachine guns didn’t give them this chance at all.

Tang Dao and the six precision shooters he selected from the entire company were all looking for Japanese soldiers who were trying to throw grenades.

 When he saw all the Japanese troops falling to the ground, Tang Dao led the soldiers out of the bunker.

Li Jijin and Yang Xiaoshan had seen with their own eyes how Tang Dao cleaned the battlefield, so they were naturally not surprised that Tang Dao bent down to pick up the 38-meter cap from the ground and ruthlessly fired at the Japanese soldiers who were still twisting and groaning one by one.

 But this does not mean that other people are not upset.

 The concept of two armies fighting and killing people on the battlefield and killing people who have no resistance are completely different concepts.

The thousands-year-old traditional kindness of the Chinese nation is not just conveyed through books.

 At least, nearly 50% of the soldiers following Tang Dao had unbearable expressions on their faces.

 “Sir.” Lao Hei said hesitantly. "Hi! What's the matter, Old Hei, are you old and kind-hearted?" Veteran Youzi chuckled at his colleagues. "If I don't kill them, how can I keep them in the building to eat and drink?"

"Bah! I just want to ask the commander, how convenient is it to stab with a bayonet, and shooting is a waste of bullets!" Lao Hei is also a veteran, and he wakes up instantly. Hei's face is slightly red and he gives himself an excuse.

“You know what you’re talking about! If you don’t fire at the 38-year-old, what can you do if the little devils outside think they’re dead inside and run away.” Veteran Youzi rolled his eyes.

"Oh! That's right!" Lao Hei suddenly realized what he was doing. He learned how to use it flexibly, took out his rifle and fired it, completely silencing a Japanese soldier who was still crawling.

　　At the end, he turned to veteran Youzi and smiled, "Our gunfire can't stop, right?"

“Here you go, that stupid old black-headed guy is quite smart!” Veteran Youzi gave a thumbs up.

At this time, the main force of the Japanese infantry was close to 40 meters away, which was the final stage of charge.

Entering the charge early, the heavy footsteps of the Japanese infantry could be clearly heard after they had already run more than 150 meters.

If they were a little closer, Tang Dao believed that he could hear their breathing as if the bellows were being blown.

 The Japanese believe in their physical strength too much, Tang Dao grinned coldly.

In this era, the Japanese army had a supply of meat and fish, and their nutrition was far better than that of the Chinese soldiers who went to the battlefield with a few baked potatoes and a few handfuls of fried rice and noodles. However, they were not able to charge fully armed for 200 meters at full speed and still maintain high intensity. The physical demands of combat.

Even if the backpack, water bottle, and individual engineer shovel were discarded before the battle, the helmet, rifle with bayonet, bullet box, grenades, and cowhide boots studded with iron nails already weighed more than 15 kilograms.

 What they have to face is not a pleasant green grassland, but a battlefield full of blood and death.

 Nearly 200 people spent the whole night digging the more than 80-meter-long first-line trench. It is not only used for soldiers in the warehouse to fight externally, but also has a function similar to a military trap.

 Trenches up to 2 meters wide cannot be jumped over as long as the strength is slightly insufficient. If you fall into it, don't think that you can't fall to death if the trench is no more than 1.5 meters deep.

Don’t forget, this is not a field battle, but a fortress offensive and defensive battle. The defenders of the building 20 meters away from the trenches are condescending, and there is almost no need to aim. They can just shoot into the trenches.

The three communication trenches leading into the building are retreat passages for the defenders, but they are death corridors for the enemies who break into them.

As long as a light machine gun is mounted on the fortification at the end of the traffic trench, no one can pass through the 20-meter-long death tunnel alive.

 Now, three light machine guns have been set up at the end of the traffic trench in the building.

There are certainly not a few Japanese soldiers who can jump over traffic trenches, but so what? Tang Dao's third platoon and Leng Feng's first platoon and two infantry squads, a total of five infantry squads with forty submachine guns and a dozen rifles, have already rushed to their respective battle positions.

To put it cruelly, it is said that the brave will win when the two armies meet, but in fact, for the Japanese army, which has no fortifications to block it and is all armed with single-shot rifles, this kind of face-to-face confrontation with automatic continuous-fire weapons is a massacre.

The main force of the Japanese army arrived at the empty front-line trenches at the moment when all the gunfire in the hall on the first floor of the warehouse stopped.

Just as Tang Dao expected, some of the Japanese soldiers were as agile as deer, using the kinetic energy of high-speed running to leap over the trenches as if they were nothing. Some of the Japanese soldiers were exhausted and their legs became weak and fell into the trenches. Others simply jumped into the trenches before planning. climb out.

The formation of the 400 Japanese troops that rushed over like locusts instantly became a little messy.

 Far more intensive gunshots exploded inside the building than before.
