Hardcore ruthless starts in the Pacific

"Shh-!"

"Shut up, get down, get down!"

Second Lieutenant Stone, the deputy platoon leader of the weapons platoon, always appeared at the most critical moments. He lowered his voice to remind the soldiers not to show their faces, and also prevented the two M1917 main shooters from adjusting their firing resources.

The reason is that at least a dozen small Japanese warships appeared on the sea that night, and they sent searchlights to the beachheads around Guadalcanal Lunga, as if they were detecting and confirming the specific number of US troops.

16. Alligator Creek

"Soldier over there, don't show your head!"

Second Lieutenant Stone really wanted to slap that stupid Ma Run. If the Japanese warship found American soldiers on the beachhead, the Japanese would have to disgust you if they didn't give you the whole job.

The ghost knows if there are any battleships in this batch of warships. The main guns with a caliber of more than 300 mm bombarded them, and the anti-gun holes lacking key materials for reinforcement are a fucking joke.

For the first time, Ivan experienced the feeling of a searchlight nearby.

The dazzling glare is like a small sun appearing in front of you, and the light is like an extended version of a spoon trying to dig out your eyeballs.

"Damn little Japan."

"Damn it!"

"God, hope they don't see us!"

In fact, it is dangerous for Japanese warships to turn on their searchlights near the waters of Guadalcanal, but they seem to know that the US military on Guadalcanal can't do anything to the warships on the sea, so they are so unscrupulous.

In the early morning of August 8, the movement of the Japanese fleet was clear at a glance. There were more than a dozen destroyers lined up on the sea with the prefix T.

"Damn it, where is our navy?"

"Did the Japanese move the whole empire over here?"

"If there are planes at our airport, how could this group of grandchildren be so arrogant!"

"There was a batch of F4F wildcats this afternoon, but the ones who stepped on the horse were fighter jets."

Second Lieutenant Stone observed with a telescope for a few minutes and said: "At least a thousand devils have come over. There is a plantation to the east, and there is a cape 15 kilometers to the east. We call it Taiwu Cape-they should go to this place."

Then warned Ma Run not to let down his vigilance.

Looking at the destroyer floating on the sea is not big, it can even be said to be quite small, but every Ma Run knows... Humans on the coast are like an ant in front of the big guns of the big ship.

Looking at these destroyers, the morale that Ma Run and the others finally brought up yesterday dropped by at least half.

Is Evan scared?

Of course!

No one can say that he is not afraid in front of a battleship that can really shoot...even a destroyer.

"Don't be afraid."

Stone noticed that the body of the second-class soldier he had dealt with before was trembling slightly, and immediately patted Ivan on the back to help him relieve his anxiety and stress, "Even if there is a 20% non-combat attrition, we still have tank battalions, The artillery battalion, as well as the 1st Battalion of the 1st Regiment and the 5rd Battalion of the 3th Regiment as the general reserve. Our navy is also on the way and has an absolute advantage!"

"Can......"

"Up to 1000 people." Second Lieutenant Stone said loudly, "It will never exceed this number. Although our ammunition reserves are not very sufficient, it is enough to deal with these Japanese devils. At that time, you only need to obey the order and shoot from the cover Shoot until reinforcements arrive."

Ivan took a deep breath trying to calm down.

Naturally, the confidence will not be very sufficient, but this is something that must be experienced-the last time I ran away, this time there is no way to escape.

Ivan immediately took out a cigarette and used nicotine to divert his attention.

"Are you excited?" After handing the cigarette to Lecky, Ivan couldn't help asking, "After so many days, there is finally a devil to kill."

"excited?"

Scud leaned over and there was still a trace of fear in his eyes, "Before I woke up, I had a fucking nightmare, and those beasts came up to bite me... I thought I was eaten raw by these dogs It's over!"

It seems that Laiji's description of what Ivan saw earlier left a lot of psychological shadow on Ma Run.

In contrast, the smiling tiger is much more relaxed.

"listen to me--!"

He seemed to be announcing something, "I used this guy in my dream to kill all these devils!"

While patting the barrel of the M1917, Leckie couldn't help but ask, "What about me?"

"I'm sorry, dear Lecky." The smiling tiger said a little sadly, "You were shot, and the mountain man and the chef are helping you with the wound—obviously, the hero of Turtle Island must be me!"

"F丨ck!" Leckie yelled, "It's you who will get hurt, look at your size!"

"Why am I working as a medical soldier?" The mountain man was not convinced, "Don't you know the gold content of the No. [-] ammunitionist?"

Immediately afterwards, Scud also joined the 'battlefield', making fun of each other and relieving the pressure in their hearts in their own ways.

Ivan watched them vent their distress in this way and was very envious. It's not that he is a person who likes to keep everything in his heart, it's just that...he has more to think about.

Death in reincarnation will not be real death, but the failure of the [Main Mission] will result in the loss of half of the points and attribute points accumulated so far. In the past thirteen days, Yiwen has accumulated 13 points and 1 free attribute point, which will be cut in half. In the end, Yiwen could only take 6 points and join the next reincarnation.

The most important thing is that he can't treat reincarnation negatively, otherwise he will deprive him of everything he has gained from reincarnation, and at the same time lose the chance of completely defeating cancer.For this reason, he must make himself stronger. The basis for becoming stronger is to survive the cycle of reincarnation and get complete survival rewards and kill rewards.

Although I don't know how the difficulty is distributed, but one thing is certain - the last game is always easy, and the next game is always difficult.The Pacific War, the Western Front, and the hellish Eastern Front. If it is carried out in this order, it is difficult for Ivan to imagine how he can survive the meat grinder on the Eastern Front and achieve good results if he does not have enough skills.

Just when he didn't know what to do, Lecky's voice suddenly came from his ear.

"Alive!"

Ivan raised his head and found that the rough embryos were standing around him, and then extended his hand to him.Fear was written on their faces, but there was no fear in their voices, because there were trustworthy comrades beside them.

"Live together until the end of the war!"

Yes, the reason is very simple - he understands one thing.

Yiwen is not fighting alone, he has comrades who can rely on his back.

Rather than feeling more and more scared here, it's better to trust them, and believe in yourself... Defeating Little Japan will not only take away the [main mission] rewards, but also take away the kill rewards!

Before noon, the company commander, Captain James, informed H of the order connected to him, and went to the Mara River to deploy defenses as quickly as possible, relying on the "Alligator Creek" called "Alligator Creek" by the local aborigines for defense.

Each soldier received 3 D-level MREs as today's rations, and at the same time, the company headquarters prepared 3 days' rations.

"When fortifying, pay attention to the movement on the opposite side." Lieutenant Shock Ligan said.

The two M1917s of the weapons platoon are deployed on the left and right wings of the west riverbed sand embankment of Alligator Creek, and they can directly enter the stream at a distance of at most two or three meters. The reason why the 1.5 line was not selected is that this stream is more than ten meters long. Wide, it can be regarded as a natural barrier.

At this time, it must be erected on the 1.5th line according to the regulations, and there will be a large number of gaps in the firepower of the 1st line.

The layout was all decided by the deputy company commander, Lieutenant Hugh Ligan, through on-the-spot investigations. The company commander was still at the battalion headquarters. After arranging the machine gun positions, Hugh Ligan immediately took people to the beach on the left to set up barbed wire, and then went to the right to check the important points. Machine gun positions.

The company commander, Captain James, came over in the evening when the defense system was initially formed. Second Lieutenant Stone informed Ma Run of the existing information about the Japanese army at the left wing of H Company's defense——5 kilometers to the east, A Company and the Japanese army Hand in the fire, there is a high probability that H Company will exchange fire with the Japanese army tonight, and now all letters or documents with addresses and dates must be destroyed.

17. Branch tasks and special tasks

Yiwen believes that there will be no evening when Ma Run likes Guadalcanal, even if it is a different scenery, he is not welcome.

On the evening of the No. 14 day of reincarnation, Yiwen leaned back on the bunker in a prone position and watched his comrades without saying a word.

There is one thing I remember very clearly.

On the day when they first landed on the island, the morale of the Ma Runs was extremely high. Although the military appearance was uneven, at least everyone’s combat uniforms and faces were clean, and now... the clothes on the rough guys like Lai Ji Has changed color.

Beads of sweat permeate from the surface of the skin and stick to the combat uniform. After drying, white crystals will be left. No one has cleaned it up until today. At the same time, the sweat beads wiped when digging trenches formed on the clothes. A series of black marks.

As far as the eye can see, the soldiers are not soldiers, but a group of destitute beggars-they have been digging trenches all afternoon, listless and exhausted.

In front of Ivan's left is an M1917 controlled by Lecky and Smiling Tiger. It is about five meters away. It only takes one leap to pass the ammunition carried by the ammunition hand, and then another leap to return to his lying bunker.

From the perspective of the air, the two heavy machine guns are set to the front to form a protrusion, which is completely in line with the requirements of the drill code to set the firepower of the machine gun on the first-line protrusion, but the drill code refers to the light machine gun, but Ma Run There is no BAR in hand, and Alligator Creek is a natural barrier with very good terrain. If the first-line firepower is lacking, then there is no need to defend it.

Before nightfall, the company commander, deputy company commander, and deputy platoon leader of the firepower platoon assigned their respective tasks—the deputy company commander, Lieutenant Huckleberry, was in charge of the left wing of the company, including the direction of the beach. Second Lieutenant Stone went to the right wing to assist in commanding the 2nd platoon and the other Supporting M1917, the company commander commanded the mortar unit at a position about 250 meters behind Ivan's buttocks, and mobilized the reserve team to support the position at any time.

"You have to learn to count heavy machine gun rounds."

Although the deputy company commander, Lieutenant Huckleberry, didn't appear in front of the big soldiers very often, he was a very responsible company-level cadre. At this time, he was pulling Ivan to patiently instruct him on some things that must be kept in mind when fighting.

"Lakey and Smiling Tiger have 500 rounds of ammunition in reserve. You don't need to count each round. You just need to look in the direction of the machine gun, because there is 10 tracer bullet in every 1 bullets in the belt. Use your feel to figure out how much ammo they have left."

Lieutenant Huckleberry said these words very seriously: "You are the No. [-] ammoman, and you must be the last one to go up to replenish ammunition. There are a thousand rounds of ammunition before you, and there are about two or three hundred rounds left. , even if the Japanese have already killed you in the face, they must send the ammunition there as soon as possible."

Ivan nodded while holding the Springfield M1903 tightly.

"The depth of this creek is at most half a meter. If the heavy machine gun can't continuously fire bullets, it will be difficult for us to stop the Japanese wading attack. I don't think you want to fight hand-to-hand with the Japanese."

Hand-to-hand combat during World War II was by no means a minority, but I am afraid that there is only one country where hand-to-hand combat is forced to help because of insufficient ammunition, and the other country is overly superstitious in hand-to-hand combat.

The latter is the little Japan whose mind is always stained with shit. It is because they are superstitious and like it, so the skills and tactics of hand-to-hand combat are very high. Ma Run's height and weight have an absolute advantage, but hand-to-hand combat skills have an absolute disadvantage.

Yiwen never wanted the battle to develop into hand-to-hand combat. Things that could be solved with bullets had to be solved with bayonets. This man had a problem with his brain designation.

"Aye aye, sir!"

Seeing that the second-class soldier was a little panicked, Lieutenant Shock Ligan patted Ivan on the shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous and don't just focus on Lecky. When you start shooting, you should pay more attention to the left and right sides and the position of the tracer bullets."

"Aye aye, sir!"

"Take a break now."

After the explanation, Lieutenant Huckleberry ran to the infantry to explain the details of tonight's battle one by one.

But Yiwen always felt that even if he explained it in detail, when the fight broke out... I am afraid that Ma Run and the others would have almost forgotten it.

The M1903 Springfield in her hand has a capacity of five rounds, and she can also load one round at the same time. She participated in World War I and World War II. In the future, she will participate in the Korean War and Vietnam War as a sniper rifle because of the sniper model in the series, and it will be "free". Assisted Chang Shenkai a lot.

It looks like he has done a lot of merit, but Yiwen thinks he is just a fire stick.

This is World War II, not World War I. Covering fire and suppressing fire have become commonplace. You tell me that Garands, carbines, Thomsons, and grease guns are all toys, and real men only pull the bolt?

Go crazy! ?

When the battlefield is really a game, a crosshair and an [-]x mirror automatically appear on the rifle?

Yiwen’s shooting level is only on the passing line, and he has no chance and time to apply for live ammunition training when he comes to Guadalcanal—initial patrol and investigation, mid-term diarrhea, and the diarrhea has been cured, but he is already lying in the bunker with a gun.

"Check weapons and ammunition!"

After explaining to the soldiers, it was already night, and Lieutenant Shock Ligan called out in a low voice.

"No one is allowed to light a cigarette at night, and any open flames are prohibited!"

Yiwen’s original ammunition was all handed in. This evening, 90 rounds of special bullets for night were distributed. Out of the total of 5 magazines, 3 are tracer bullets, which are specially used by the shooter to adjust the shooting direction at night, and...

"When checking the bullets, make sure that the bullets in your hands are all night-specific bullets. You must use them even if it will reveal your position—if you don't want to die here!"

No rifleman is willing to use tracer bullets when defending against the enemy at night, because it will give away his position, but as the lieutenant said, it must be used to cover the position of the machine gun. The rifle can be misfired, but the machine gun cannot.

The belt of the machine gun has 10 tracer bullet in every 1 rounds, and it is used with long bursts to confirm where the bullet hits.

If only machine guns fired tracer bullets in the entire position, the enemy would quickly lock their position and use mortars and grenades to take them out. Without the firepower of machine guns, it would be impossible to hold Alligator Creek by burning fire sticks alone.

"God, keep me through this night."

"Come on, little devils!"

"Avenge for those who died at Pearl Harbor!"

The Ma Runs used their own methods to relieve their nervousness while nibbling on the D-level MRE. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

Ivan touched the handle of the machete at his waist, and began to underestimate in a low voice: "If you really want to fight hand-to-hand - treat the Japanese as a large coconut... You have chopped thousands of them, and you know what to do Where to start, how to be most efficient...you can do it, you can..."

Before he finished chanting, the voice that appeared in his ears as long as it passed 12 o'clock at night during this period of time appeared.
