Chapter 1144 Famous in North China
Hakuki Chiori has a very literary name and a very artistic heart.
Chiori Momaki, who was born in a Kyoto earl family, shocked the Kyoto Poetry Society with a modern poem when he was 16 years old. If he were allowed to continue to move forward according to his own wishes, he would probably become a very talented poet, but unfortunately his family His mission destined him to be unable to linger among the mountains, rivers and fine wines like ordinary literary and artistic young people.
When he was 20 years old, he was sent to the sergeant school by his family. It took him 8 years to grow from a trainee second lieutenant to an army major. This is a very fast promotion for ordinary people, but for a nobleman, it is considered a very fast promotion. Falling behind.
This naturally has a lot to do with the mentality of Chiori Momaki, who has no ambitions. After the war started, the Army Major, who was already considered a marginal figure in the family, did not get the opportunity to enter the type division to be promoted faster. By chance, he became a major captain in a second-line division like the 108th Division.
This time, Chiori Momaki was actually very grateful to be personally named by the brigade commander to lead his troops around the rear wing of the Chinese army.
Although he is not very interested in military service, it does not mean that Chiori Momaki is unsophisticated. He knows that Kuyeda Shiro is giving him an opportunity to make military exploits, and at the same time, he avoids leading his troops in a hard battle on the front line!
You must know that their opponent is not an ordinary Chinese army, but the Si Xing Regiment, one of the victims of the 108th Division. However, whenever they encounter this army, the 108th Division has never escaped unscathed.
A major is still a figure in the hearts of ordinary soldiers, but in the Four Elements Regiment, they don't even bother to take the major's head as a trophy, because there are too many people killed, and perhaps only those at the rank of major can appreciate it. Eye.
Hence, Chiori Hyakui is still trying his best for this battle.
Not only did he take the lead in cutting through thorns with a machete, he even jumped into the mountain stream like an ordinary soldier to carry wood and build a bridge like an ordinary soldier. It was also stimulated by his selfless spirit that the infantry brigade under his command was able to survive in such dangerous terrain. After spending two days and one night marching more than ten kilometers in the mountains, they were about to detour behind Qingshi Rock to encircle the Chinese army.
Once the Chinese troops in the Qingshiyan area are attacked from four directions, the Chinese there will lose sight of one thing and no matter how stubborn the resistance is, it will be in vain!
The glorious military exploits are right in front of you!
So, on this night, while standing on a mountain ridge and looking at the stars in the sky, a Japanese army major became inspired by poetry and recited a poem loudly in his mother tongue.
Translated into Chinese, the general meaning is: The stars tonight are so bright, they will become the beacon guiding the imperial warriors to kill the enemy, and the splattered blood will become the most beautiful flowers on the chests of the imperial officers and soldiers.
The literary Army Major doesn't know that there is a saying on China's future Internet: Villains often die from talking too much!
The Chinese people don't know how much talent the poem he recited contains, but the Chinese people know that there are Japanese people above their heads.
What's special is that the distance will never exceed 40 meters!
Lieutenant Chu Shaoyun, who was leading the team, was sweating on his forehead at that time!
It turns out that although the march was in a strange formation and it was marching within the area where his regiment was stationed, Chu Shaoyun was a lieutenant in the regular army and still formed a scout unit according to military practice.
Tang Tuanzuo's warning after a tactical class taught by the brigade has always stayed in Chu Shaoyun's mind: Life is very long and very short. Mistakes and mistakes will accompany everyone in this long and short life. That is ordinary life. Normal life. But only the commander who arrives on the battlefield is not qualified and cannot have this normal state, because every mistake and mistake he makes must be made up for with the precious lives of his comrades!
So I hope that you, whether you are a battalion commander, company commander, platoon commander or squad leader, will be extremely cautious every time you command a battle!
You, me and our comrades may all die, but we should never die because of our commander's stupidity!
Since the security platoons have been basically broken up and organized into companies and platoons to serve as grassroots officers, Chu Shaoyun can only mobilize 10 people at most to form a sharp knife squad, which he personally leads. It should be the only regular infantry squad among the 1,300 people.
At this point in time, after traveling all day and night, it was less than 2 hours before the two and a half companies, carrying heavy equipment, arrived at Erdaoliang, 3,000 meters away from Qingshiyan, to camp.
The so-called Erdaoliang is naturally a landform composed of two mountain ridges!
Two mountain slopes formed by the miraculous workmanship of nature are nearly 80 degrees and almost straight. Almost no living thing can settle on them except for the yellow sheep.
However, there is a convenient path for pedestrians between the two ridges, and between the two straight mountain ridges is a relatively gentle hillside of more than 250 meters. The thick bushes on the hillside are nearly one meter deep. Standing at a thousand meters, From the outside, it looks like a flat grassland sandwiched between two straight mountain ridges. It has become a must-have place for local hunters to hunt pheasants and hares in autumn.
Although the bushes are overgrown with thorns and there are many mosquitoes and flies, there are enough vegetation and various large rocks scattered on the hillside to serve as shelters, so even if they are attacked, they will still be able to fight.
Therefore, the light machine gun company, rifle grenade company and an infantry artillery platoon that arrived at Erdaoliang at dusk chose to use this place as a campsite under the guidance of Teacher Xiao He, waiting only to drag the heavy combat artillery and infantry tomorrow. The company that arrived with the artillery met up and went to support the Qingshiyan position.
Those annoying mosquitoes, the militiamen in the army are all natives of the Taihang Mountains, so they naturally have special drugs to dispel them. Without mosquito bites, the tired people can sleep normally for a few hours, recharge their batteries and wait for tomorrow to enter the battlefield. .
Chu Shaoyun and others, who had scouted for more than 1,500 meters along Erdaoliang, were extremely exhausted, so the 11 people hid in a natural cave formed under a huge rock to take a rest, intending to regain some energy before returning to the camp.
Unexpectedly, before they even fell asleep, an excited chirping sound came from above their heads, startling all 11 elite soldiers.
There are also Japanese people here? Could it be the legendary Japanese secret service?
Then, along with the low military orders, there were constant dull footsteps, and the flashlight light, which was much weakened by the gauze, shone into the eyes of the army lieutenant who quietly looked around.
Groups of Japanese troops crossed over from a low hill in Erdaoliang and entered the relatively low and flat bushes inside Erdaoliang.
"My dear mother! There is at least one Japanese infantry brigade here! Platoon leader, we have to notify Director He immediately that they are moving." A sergeant reminded Chu Shaoyun with his eyes widened in shock.
The Army was originally the 67th Army and was also a veteran who had experienced the Songjiang War. I have seen any battlefields, but when I saw a thousand -person Japanese infantry brigade less than a thousand meters away, it was still raised.
It's not about how strong the combat effectiveness of a Japanese infantry brigade is, but that he doesn't have much confidence in his two-and-half-year army, which is almost composed of students, workers, and militiamen.
Especially under Chu Shaoyun's crazy organization, there are basically no rifles in either the light machine gun company or the grenade company.
For example, a light machine gun has a main shooter, a secondary shooter and an ammunition hand. Among the three people, the main shooter is responsible for carrying personal supplies such as a light machine gun and a steel helmet weighing 10 kilograms. The deputy shooter and ammunition hand are responsible for carrying all ammunition, as well as engineering shovels, food, water and other supplies. During battle, the deputy shooter and ammunition The hand must be able to build field fortifications for the main shooter as quickly as possible.
The average weight of each person is more than 15 kilograms. How can there be any extra strength to carry firearms such as rifles and pistols? The three of them only have a Black Star pistol and 2 magazines at most!
To put it bluntly, this 1,300-man pure heavy firepower unit has no melee capabilities at all!
“Transfer?” Chu Shaoyun's face was resolute. "Where to move? And by the time we ran back to inform, the Japanese had already moved there. There were hundreds of people moving there. Do you think the Japanese were stupid and couldn't see or hear it?"
“What's the deal? It's not a problem to just wait like this! It will be even more troublesome to be discovered by the Japanese army until dawn!” The Army sergeant's face seemed to be filled with bitterness.
The distance between the mountainous areas between the two beams was only 250 meters. The Japanese troops rushing over like locusts could reach them in less than a minute. Just thinking about the scene made this veteran's scalp numb.
“What the hell, **** him!” Chu Shaoyun almost didn't hesitate and gave the order immediately. "Go two people and notify Director Tantai and Factory Director He. While the Japanese army was unaware and their footing was not stable, our light machine gun company and rifle grenade company used the cover of bushes to advance 700 meters along the Erdaoliang direction, and then concentrated fire. The infantry artillery increased its elevation angle and fired in a mortar-like mode. The target was opposite our position. As long as they didn't throw the shells at their own people's heads, they could hit them however they wanted!
Tell them that there is no need to save ammunition, just let me shoot forward. The main shooter will die and the secondary shooter will take his place. If the secondary shooter dies, he will have the ammunition! In this battle, either the enemy dies or we die! "
The saying goes that when a person meets on a narrow road, the brave prevails. This is probably the case.
Chu Shaoyun may have made the most correct decision in his life, bar none!
Chiori Momoki, who had just finished reciting the poem passionately and elegantly, never thought that he would encounter Chinese people behind the Chinese positions, and there would be hundreds of Chinese people.
What is even more painful is that there are hundreds of Chinese with up to 100 light machine guns, 120 rifle grenades and 6 infantry guns.
What about the "heavy" firepower of the Japanese military equipment? Taking the organization of the Japanese infantry squadron as an example, a Japanese infantry squad has 55 soldiers and is equipped with 2 grenade launchers and 2 light machine guns. An infantry squadron has 3 infantry squads, that is, 6 grenade launchers and 6 light machine guns. The rest are basically rifles and Southern Type 14 pistols.
Chizori Momaki was a light infantry brigade at this time. Except for the 3 heavy machine guns that he brought with him through great hardships, the other heavy machine guns, infantry guns, and mortars were all abandoned!
In other words, the firepower of the six infantry squadrons led by Chiori Momaki at this time included 36 grenades, 36 light machine guns, and hundreds of rifles!
But the most fatal thing is not the difference between continuous firepower and heavy firepower, but the fact that the Japanese army was completely unaware at this time. They had to march over mountains and ridges and even at night, and the exhausted Japanese army completely lost their vigilance.
Not only did they not send out scouts as usual, they did not even dig field trenches. As more and more people entered the Erdaoliang area, they spread out along Erdaoliang, taking infantry squadrons as units, randomly I found an open space, laid out my personal luggage, and planned to fall asleep.
On the hillside between the two beams that are more than 700 meters long, 6 infantry squadrons, a heavy machine gun squad and an engineer squad poured in. Although it could not be called bustling, it was still very lively.
At this time, the Japanese never dreamed that in the grass on the hillside opposite them, hundreds of people covering their mouths and noses with towels were quietly walking through the bushes with their waists low.
The Si Xing Regiment is not yet equipped with combat boots. Both officers and soldiers basically wear cloth shoes made by fellow villagers. It is this kind of soft-soled cloth shoes that reduces the noise of action.
Covering your mouth and nose with a towel is also to prevent branches and leaves from touching the mouth and nose, causing coughing and sneezing, which are the human body's instinctive reactions. Many people even chewed sticks at the request of veterans to avoid these. Although there were pheasants flying out of the grass from time to time, due to the noise made by the Japanese troops on the opposite side, this was a normal phenomenon.
Had it not been for the military order issued by Chiori Momaki, we must not shoot easily. Maybe the Japanese army had the intention of shooting a few pheasants for tooth sacrifice.
Although the night was dark, there was no need for the Chinese soldiers to identify the opponent's specific location. The Japanese flashlight looked like bright stars in the sky from more than 200 meters away. It was the best beacon!
Don't tell me, this actually echoes the verses that Chiori Momaki recited passionately before.
Then, the most romantic Army Major of the 108th Division, who was still watching the sky at night, saw a spectacle that he would never forget in his life.
The scarlet trajectory was like a surging meteor shower, completely covering up the brilliance of the stars in the night sky, and overwhelmingly smashed into his campsite!
Then, there was the deafening sound of "tdda!" and "boom-boom-boom!"
"Enemy attack!" was still in his throat, and Qianori Momaki felt a sharp pain transmitted to his cranial nerves.
Looking down in horror, he saw that under the faint firelight, a mass of scarlet was slowly spreading from the military uniform on his chest!
"I was hit? How did the Chinese find me? This is not normal!" The romantic Japanese poet collapsed.
A sniper kill that never exceeds 80 meters. For a veteran like an Army sergeant, it is impossible to miss a vital point like the heart!
As for how to find the romantic major, the reason couldn't be simpler. Japanese officers came over one after another and shouted, 'Hey! ', no matter how low their voices were, the intensity with which they lowered their heads was as if they were sending the major, who was wearing a helmet and an ordinary Japanese infantry uniform, to Amaterasu.
This man! You really can't get too 'high'.
The Japanese, from the moment they were covered by the bullet stream, lost their supreme commander who was good at reciting poems and writing poems.
The poem "Direction of the Stars" recorded by the captain's staff officer who finally escaped death has also become a footnote to this battlefield that is considered the most bizarre defeat in the Shanxi Campaign.
Perhaps, the moment Qianzhi Baihui turned to the stars as a beacon, the tragedy of these more than 1,400 Japanese soldiers was already doomed.
A bright lantern, or a dark lantern!
Especially when it lights up in the dark, it may be guiding the souls of the dead!
The sound of the Czech-made light machine gun cover up the sound of the Czech semi-automatic rifle that killed the Japanese army major. Several Chinese veterans hiding less than 100 meters in front of the Japanese position killed more than ten Japanese officers.
Including one Japanese major, three Japanese captains and seven Japanese second lieutenants. This is also considered to be one of the reasons for the Japanese army's defeat after the war.
The details of the battle cannot be elaborated, and the exchange of fire between the two sides was so simple that it was outrageous!
Shoot, shoot, shoot again!
Neither side had much firepower to test, so they circled around from the left and right wings, just between the narrow mountain ridges, from two hillsides covered with grass and rocks, and shot at each other desperately.
Neither Lao Tantai nor Xiao He are professional soldiers, but they are both the wisest people in China. Professional matters are left to professionals.
They were determined enough to complete the decision of Chu Shaoyun, the supreme commander of the military. Since they had given everything they had, they did not want to devote so much to one battle and just empty out the ammunition they carried.
They are a bunch of miscellaneous troops who are completely unqualified to think about the next step or what to do in the future!
Each light machine gun is equipped with 800 rounds of ammunition. 100 rounds is 80,000 rounds. Each rifle grenade is equipped with 50 rounds of ammunition, which is 6,000 rounds. The orders received by all veterans who serve as squad leaders are to empty all the bullets before they sacrifice themselves. grenades, and prepare for hand-to-hand combat.
The so-called hand-to-hand combat naturally involves holding a light machine gun with empty bullets and a Black Star pistol for a three-person team. Military spurs are also distributed to everyone, but there is no rifle to support them. They hold the military spur in one hand against the Japanese commander. With a height of 1.7 meters, the probability of survival of a 38-meter rifle is extremely low.
But that was the final decisive battle order issued by Chu Shaoyun to each company and platoon before departure!
The 1,300 of them are the last strength in Dakouzidong Town. Escape will only make the Japanese invaders more rampant, so go to **** and dye the hills red with blood, making the Japanese pay a price for every step forward!
More than 1,400 Japanese troops on the other side of the hillside eventually withstood nearly 70,000 rounds of bullets, more than 5,000 rounds of grenades, and 300 rounds of artillery shells.
At the end of the battle, the desperate teacher Xiao He directly adjusted the infantry artillery from a thousand meters away to 500 meters, and aimed directly at the grenade grenades that the Japanese army still shot from time to time.
If one round is not enough, then ten rounds. If ten rounds are not enough, then ten more rounds. At least half of the remaining light machine gun positions of the Japanese army were destroyed by their own 70mm infantry cannons.
Don't think that the battlefield is just pitch black. It's all a blind fight. The Japanese army shot up flares into the sky for free in order to survive. Just like the falling stars, the flares illuminated the not-so-wide battlefield in a certain moment. Daytime.
The eyebrows of the soldiers on both sides were extremely clear in the field of view of the 4x telescope. It was simply a legendary face-to-face attack.
At least 20 light machine gun fire groups on the Chinese side were destroyed by precise bombardments from Japanese grenades, but the Japanese army was not much better.
As long as more than 5 of the 120 Browning rifle grenades are concentrated, no Japanese grenade team can escape. Even if they are hiding behind a large rock, a dozen straight-line attack grenades can smash the stone open and then hide behind it. The fresh and tender flesh and blood of the Japanese grenadier was sprayed on the originally barren land of the Taihang Mountains and became fertilizer.
This 'motley army' in front of us has nothing but enough machine guns and grenade launchers!
“My students have all died in the battle, now it's up to me, the teacher!”
And when Teacher Xiao He personally took on the role of the main shooter of a light machine gun that had lost three shooters, the famous words he said that will be passed down to the future pushed the morale and courage of this motley army to its peak!
The sound of killing shook the sky!
Even if your comrades keep falling!
The **** battle lasted until the early hours of the morning!
When an infantry artillery platoon and a combat defense artillery platoon arrived at the battlefield in a hurry, the turbulent fire from more than a dozen newly added artillery made the flares lose their luster.
The rising fireballs made the battlefield as bright as day!
The remaining Japanese troops' psychological defense lines, which were helpless against the heavy firepower, completely collapsed!
Twenty minutes later, the battlefield became quiet!
Of the more than 1,400 light infantrymen under the 108th Division, only more than 300 escaped, and the remaining 1,083 people ended up on the Erdaoliang battlefield 3,000 meters behind Qingshiyan.
That is the precise number obtained after careful counting of the corpses.
After this battle, the "miscellaneous army" stationed in the Sixth Regiment became famous in North China!
ps: I recommend the new fantasy book "Hunting of Immortals and Demons" by my great friend "Shepherd Tingzhu". This guy became a **** with the book Wandao Dragon King. He is very powerful. Book friends who like traditional fantasy can check it out.
