Chapter 680 There is a prodigal son!
However, although the independent battalion was a little short-lived and had not yet had time to develop the faith to ensure a firm will to fight, they had a trait that the Japanese army did not have.
They are all soldiers crawling out of the dead.
Whether it is Zhao Daqiang who fought with the 26th Division in Songhu, or the veterans of the Sixing Battalion who fought fiercely with the 88th Division in Songhu for two months, or the soldiers of the Songjiang Security Regiment who have experienced the battlefields of Songjiang and Jiashan, without exception, they are all at a disadvantage Soldiers who fought against the Japanese army on the battlefield and survived in the end.
There are planes laying eggs above their heads and heavy artillery bombardment. They see their comrades being killed and shattered around them one by one, but they cannot cry weakly. They have to hold on to the guns in their hands. As long as they don't die, they must Continue fighting.
Handling on the edge of death again and again and then surviving, the most terrifying thing is that this cycle of life and death seems to have no end.
They kept retreating and the Japanese troops kept advancing, giving people the illusion that they would all die sooner or later.
Every day when you wake up and think about whether you can survive today, normal people will become crazy under the psychological pressure.
But these people are not crazy! Their psychology is constantly tempered in such a furnace that uses life as raw material, like a piece of pig iron being tempered into fine steel.
In terms of their ability to withstand pressure alone, they are stronger than the so-called "Steel Army" of the Japanese.
If the Japanese infantry led by Ozawa Rison is really a piece of steel, then the officers and soldiers of the 4th Company can be called diamonds, and their hardness must be at least two levels stronger.
Facing the toughness of the Japanese army, they were surprised, but none of them panicked. They continued to follow the instructions of the platoon leader and squad leader, unleashing firepower desperately to suppress the Japanese army.
You are not afraid of death, we are not afraid of wasting bullets!
Then the battlefield evolved into a situation where the Japanese soldiers, who were frightened by the Molotov cocktails, no longer dared to charge regardless, but they also refused to leave, trying to find a way up the hillside.
Seeing that the Japanese army was not defeated as quickly as expected, Zhao Daqiang, who had given up his desire for a quick victory, changed his tactics and maintained fire suppression. He pinned the Japanese army in the fire scene or on the mountain road, and then concentrated heavy firepower to eliminate the Japanese army that resisted the most stubbornly.
Wait until the number of people is reduced to about the same, then kill them all in one fell swoop.
Anyway, the Japanese army could not throw the melon grenade onto the mountain ridge about 20 meters high and more than 30 meters away. The only Japanese grenade that could pose a threat to them could not form a continuous throw. Ten precision shooters who were ordered to lurk everywhere Always looking for them.
As for the few Taisho 11 young machine guns of the Japanese army, there is no need for mortars. The 10 light machine guns on the mountain ridge alone can reach a height of 30 centimeters, resulting in the shooter having to expose most of the Japanese machine guns on his upper body. Beat it to slag.
There are many weapons with good performance among Japanese weapons, such as grenades and Type 38 rifles. These seizures will make the commanders very happy, but the commanders will not take them seriously, such as Taisho 11 young machine guns or Southern-style pistols. The officers and soldiers of the independent battalion, who were too lazy to look at it and had seen the world, also looked disgusted.
That is to say, artillerymen are basically not equipped with rifles, and can only wear a southern-style pistol for appearance. As long as it is not jammed, they can still defend themselves within thirty meters.
The Taisho 11 young machine gun, which is both delicate and puts the shooter in danger, was completely abandoned by the independent battalion, and was used by Tang Dao to give favors to Commander Gu of the 128th Division.
The officers and soldiers of the 4th company, which has at least more Czech light machine guns with superior performance and larger numbers, are naturally not afraid of the Japanese light machine gun firepower.
The falling imperial infantry figures made the Japanese infantry captain's eyes full of despair. At this time, instead of feeling sad about the death of a rabbit, he felt that the noose in the hands of the Chinese was tightening.
Ozawa Risheng certainly knew his opponent's plan. The Chinese only consumed ammunition and patience, but he consumed human lives, which was a completely unequal consumption.
However, apart from constantly driving soldiers into the battlefield to shoot at the Chinese and then die, there is no way to think of any solution.
After the war, an inventory was carried out. It was found that the 4th company's two heavy machine guns and 10 light machine guns plus 12 submachine guns, shell guns and rifles had fired a total of 20,000 rounds of ammunition.
On average, each person fired nearly 70 rounds of bullets. This may not be a remarkable number for Western armies equipped with a large number of automatic firearms, but for the Eastern battlefield, this is almost a ceiling level.
The Japanese Army is already considered the strongest army in the East. In each battle, an individual soldier will be equipped with 120 rounds of ammunition. The spare ammunition of a light machine gun can reach 1,000 rounds, and the heavy machine gun can even reach 5,000 rounds. That is what makes all China The amount of ammunition that soldiers drool over.
You know, the army in the mountains that just wears the badge of blue sky and white sun, fights a big battle, and each soldier can be equipped with 20 rounds of bullets, which is what the soldiers dream of. This may be the record for the most bullets fired by a Chinese infantry company-level unit in this large-scale battle that lasted for several months.
In fact, the Japanese army could not catch up.
Even Tang Dao, who had equipped them with a large amount of ammunition before the war, couldn't help but cursed in distress after hearing Master Zhuang's report: "What a bastard, Zhao Daqiang, this prodigal son!"
As a battalion commander, at most he just thought that even if his life was over, he would kill the Japanese, but he still had to live a life after all.
Just like the explosive packets thrown by the "heartless cannon", he finally ordered Master Zhuang to scatter 150 of them. It was not that he did not have the courage to risk everything, but that Tong Yi and Leng Feng were still in Qinglongling Village, and he had to do it for them. Rescue them and leave their cards behind.
But Zhao Daqiang is really desperate, so he uses bullets to win the victory.
The terrible firepower output resulted in a large number of Japanese casualties.
A complete infantry squadron plus a baggage team of nearly a hundred people, with a total strength of more than 290 Japanese troops. On this battlefield led by Lieutenant Zhao Daqiang's "Fuze firepower coverage", the number of Japanese troops who can retreat will never exceed 80. people.
In other words, an entire infantry squadron was consumed by 20,000 rounds of ammunition, 300 grenades, and 140 Molotov cocktails.
As for the 4th Company, in this fire suppression battle, only 3 people were killed and 8 injured. Most of them were minor injuries. There were even two injured people who accidentally injured their feet while changing positions on the mountain ridge. He slipped and fell, and the blood dripping on his face from the sharp stone looked scary, but in fact it didn't affect his combat effectiveness at all.
The battle loss ratio of more than 20 to 1 is probably only comparable to the battle of four lines and one battle.
As the commander of this battle, Zhao Daqiang smiled.
Unless the earth dragon turns over and buries everyone in the mountains, he will definitely win this battle.
There were only 80 Japanese troops, only two infantry squads, and they had no heavy weapons.
Yes, the Japanese army had grenade launchers. From the two minutes before the Japanese army began to withdraw down the hillside, no more grenades flew up the mountain.
Ten carefully selected precision shooters played a huge role. Even though each of them fired at most ten bullets, their record put all machine gunners to shame.
Nearly all the grenadiers and most of the Japanese machine gunners died under their cold fire.
Ozawa Rison is still alive.
As the supreme commander, he had the privilege of hiding in the rear and giving orders without charging forward, and the large rock he chose on the hillside made it impossible for the Chinese infantry to deal with him.
But the body is alive, but the mind is almost dead.
Even though there are still dozens of troops, they have no light machine guns or grenade launchers, so they only have 38 rifles, plus the Southern 14th pistol in his hand.
Baga, is there such a pure light infantry?
At this moment, the color of his little face was the same as that of the Army Colonel who was still struggling in the valley.
But obviously, this army captain was more miserable. The opponent he met was a madman.
The madman's commander still had reservations, but the madman was proving to all the Japanese troops that not all Chinese armies were extremely poor.
The highest officer of this army is the clever son of a rich man.
