Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 464

Chapter 464: The unreliable Amaterasu (the last day of this month, please vote for me!)

In the Japanese trenches.

Kanda Masane's face was ashen.

Five minutes ago, news came from the flank that the breakthrough to the flank of the Chinese position ordered by him personally had failed.

But the defeat is not terrible. This night, the Imperial Army suffered too many defeats, and losses on local battlefields were already commonplace for Kanda Masane.

What makes Kanda Masane angry is his battlefield intuition of good but not bad.

As his intuition reminded him, it was really the Chinese reinforcements that had arrived.

If it weren't for the reinforcements, his flank breakthrough tactics would have already worked, and all the Chinese on the defense line would now be left struggling to their death.

But, that's only if.

Maybe there are not many troops, but under the moonlight, Chinese people continue to join the battlefield, and the Chinese defense line, which was already in danger, has been reinforced with firepower.

　　The ferocious infantry offensive that had already had a complete advantage was contained again.

Furthermore, the Chinese who came to help regained their possession of mortars.

The heavy machine gun and infantry artillery positions originally located high on the hills became the focus of Chinese mortars.

What makes the Japanese army miserable is that in order to capture this hill, their artillerymen worked too hard. They threw at least 800 artillery shells on the hill, leaving the small hill bare and without any trees. The rocks, except for the craters, are just floating soil.

Heavy machine guns and infantry artillery did not strictly follow the "Army Code of Conduct" to build complete fortifications. In other words, in order to prevent the Chinese heavy machine guns from firing, a few sandbags were piled in front of the heavy machine guns and that was it.

In the face of such mortars falling from the sky, what use would such crude fortifications have?

Although it was night and the Chinese could not locate the fire points so accurately, the few mortars hiding in the darkness continued to bombard the hilly area.

Twelve heavy machine guns and four infantry cannons. Either run away or stand still, relying on Amaterasu to take care not to be hit by artillery shells within ten meters of you.

The 300 infantrymen led by Lei Xiong brought a total of 6 mortars and 120 rounds of artillery shells. After arriving at the front line, the fire support company's artillerymen, who were injured and unable to enter the battle, stopped providing the specific coordinates of the hill. Lei Xiong keenly discovered the fighter plane.

It is actually very difficult for mortars to hit the Japanese heavy machine guns on the frontal battlefield, because it relies entirely on the artillery observer to estimate the distance and direction, and the probability of hitting it is pitifully low.

But the hills that originally belonged to the area where our own people were located were different. They were only a few thousand square meters. As long as we hit that area, the chance of hitting the unlucky guy was much greater.

If one round is not enough, give me 50 rounds first.

Therefore, the six mortars did not help suppress the heavy firepower of the Japanese army on the frontal battlefield, but they found another way to find the heavy firepower point of the Japanese army on the "Guling".

The Japanese army originally held the idea that since the Chinese could resist our mountain artillery and infantry artillery on this position for so long, what could the Chinese's small-caliber mortars do? It was a bad idea.

At this time, when the Japanese mountain artillery and infantry artillery were unleashing their power, the Chinese infantry hid in trenches that were one and a half meters deep. All machine guns and heavy machine guns had ring fortifications, and trenches were specially built for the soldiers to take shelter.

At that time, the Japanese artillery was rampant, and the Chinese defenders used explosives that killed a thousand enemies and damaged a thousand others to explode themselves. These fortifications that could have avoided the artillery fire were turned into ruins.

The Japanese army's equipment and personnel were almost on the bare land, relying entirely on Amaterasu's care and artillery shells to see who was luckier.

Facts have proved that Amaterasu is unreliable.

Six mortars fired at a rapid rate, but before they could even finish the 50 shells ordered by Lei Xiong, the Japanese troops on the hill began to run away.

Of the four infantry guns, one was directly thrown three or four meters away by a mortar shell that exploded three meters away. An artillery team was killed and less than half of it was injured. The other one was even more unlucky, and the shell missed. The infantry artillery was located, but it hit an artillery shell box more than ten meters away.

What does the explosion of twenty artillery shells look like?

The Chinese and Japanese infantry on the battlefield can be seen.

A brilliant fireball suddenly rose up and lit up a small half of the battlefield, or secondly, some shells that were carried to high altitudes by the air waves and then exploded one after another were like the fireworks set off in the sky during the New Year, but the sound was a little louder.

The most powerful cannonball was launched more than two hundred meters by the air wave before exploding.

Even artillery shells can be swept hundreds of meters away by the energy of the explosion, let alone the Japanese troops around the center of the explosion.

The 200-kilogram rifle body of the infantry gun, which was more than ten meters away from the center of the explosion, was like a leaf. It was blown out by the air wave for more than thirty meters, smashing two Japanese soldiers who were lying on the ground and screaming into a ball of flesh. , the barrels are twisted like Tianjin hemp flowers. An artillery squad hiding near the infantry artillery was completely wiped out. The only one left alive was the care of Amaterasu.

In addition to the infantry artillery, the heavy machine gun positions were even worse. In order to ensure the density of bullets for concentrated fire, the Japanese army's twelve heavy machine guns were almost all on one side of the hill. They found a relatively flat place and lined up in a row. It looked very... Pleasing to the eye increases deterrence.

But once it encountered artillery fire, to describe it simply and crudely, this formation was like a 'chicken' that drank ten times the amount of aphrodisiac, and its thighs were almost split.

Then you are considered a ghost unless you are **** and exploded.

Of these dozens of shells, at least a dozen shells accidentally fell into the area of twelve heavy machine guns.

The Japanese heavy machine gunners who were looking forward to the appearance of Amaterasu had a good taste of the luck of being hit by artillery shells.

Eight heavy machine guns were blown away by the air waves and turned into scrap metal. The number of casualties among the shooters and ammunition handlers was more than dozens, which was much more miserable than the infantry cannon.

If the Japanese troops on the "Guling" were just not favored by Amaterasu's lucky light, then the nearly 100 Japanese troops on the flanks who were retreating frantically were actually deceived by Amaterasu.

It's all because of the gorgeous fireworks show.

The retreating Japanese army was running and found that the Major was missing.

This can't be done! Isn't your Excellency, Major, running in front?

Yes, Major Sakamoto of the 6th Infantry Battalion of the 45th Infantry Regiment, who personally came to the flank to command the breakthrough, did not foolishly go out and engage in a hand-to-hand combat with "white knife in and red knife out".

Although he is extremely confident in his extremely sharp samurai sword and the swordsmanship he has practiced for more than ten years, this Japanese Army Major is not that ignorant. Entering this kind of battlefield, there are only two results, either killing someone or being killed. kill.

He is a distinguished major, not a leading soldier. He does not need to use the enemy's life to prove his bravery. Naturally, he stands on the outside of the battlefield and watches the battle.

When the Fourth Battalion arrived and joined the battlefield like wolves and tigers, the situation on the originally stalemate battlefield changed drastically, or it was Major Sakamoto who realized that the situation was not right and issued a retreat order.

Then, under the protection of six guards, the Japanese Army Major was the first to run away.

No matter how you calculate it, the Japanese Army Major is the safest presence on the flanks of the Japanese army. Even Niu Er hiding in the dark can't take advantage of him.

It's not that the distance is too far, but that Uu Er has darkness as a protective color, and so does the Japanese Army Major. He stands on the dark edge of the battlefield, with 6 infantry guards around him. Uu Er, who is already similar to a sniper, can also use him. no way.

It's just unfortunate that when the fireworks show broke out, the Japanese army that was defeated by Lei Xiong, Pang Dahai and others on the flanks and ran away was just over 200 meters away from the "Guling".

The 'two kicks' inspired by the big fireworks just flew to that position.

It is exactly in the middle of the Japanese army's formation.

When it comes to running and slipping, the more ordinary soldiers are, the faster they run. It is not determined by their official position or who runs first. In this regard, the Japanese infantry with strong training intensity are much better than those who are officials.

A loud noise of "Boom!"

Four or five Japanese soldiers were like puppets pulled by strings, and they were blown away seven or eight meters with their teeth and claws showing.

The infantry artillery shells that exploded in the air lost their penetrating power, but the splashing shrapnel was still powerful. The surrounding Japanese infantry who were caught off guard and running wildly fell to the ground in an instant. More than a dozen people fell down.

The missing Major Sakamoto must have been dazzled by the splendor of the fireworks!

The Japanese infantrymen, shouting "Baga" in their hearts, frantically surrounded the fallen Japanese troops.

If something happens to Major, even if they evacuate alive, no one will be better off.

Therefore, in the splendid light of the large "fireworks", the scene in the field of vision of the Chinese officers and soldiers who were lifting the wounded on the battlefield more than 200 meters away was that the Japanese who were running happily seemed to have stopped again. In a group.

ps: Please ask for a wave of monthly votes first. It's the last day of this month, and the monthly votes are still 100 short of 2,000 votes. Please vote! Next, I recommend a book: "Ladder", a new urban book by the author of "Starting Level Five" with thousands of orders. Lao Tang recommends it as a high-quality book. If you don't criticize me for being a high-quality book, it must be a high-quality book.
