Chapter 724: Chapter 407 Street Fighting in the East of the City (2)

Although the Japanese army also uses artillery support, it is far behind the Chinese army in terms of accuracy. The front lines of the two armies are too close. The Japanese also know that the accuracy of high-altitude bombing bombing by their 6 naval aviation force is very unreliable.

Attack aircraft could be used to suppress fire by strafing fire, but since the German 88mm anti-aircraft guns hidden in Nanchang City opened fire and shot down two Japanese planes, Japanese fighter planes no longer dared to perform stunts over Nanchang City.

The battle at the foot of Nanchang City affected the hearts of all parties. Okamura Neiji couldn't figure it out. He had clearly breached the city wall. According to previous battle experience, the Chinese Army would have broken through long ago without the entire army being defeated. He laid siege three times on his own.

Third, it was just to give the defenders an illusion that they could break through. As a result, the defenders had no intention of breaking out at all, but instead

He has a strong will to fight. Whether it is a storm attack or a night attack, he is no match for the enemy. Especially in the brutal street battles, about 75% of the corpses scattered all over the city belong to the Japanese army. In order to make up for the firepower gap in the street battles,

, the Japanese even used Taisho 11-type light machine guns and 96-type light machine guns together in an attempt to reverse the firepower gap.

What made the Japanese army very helpless was that the light machine gun was a light machine gun after all. Its tactical function was completely different from that of a submachine gun. The final result was that all the assault troops were wiped out, and dozens of light machine guns were all captured by the Chinese. I originally thought that

The Japanese soldiers who are very good at street fighting have really encountered the ancestral Chinese in street fighting this time. Gao Fei's theory of street fighting is not false. For Gao Fei, street fighting is where

The battle is carried out street by street and house by house. The enemy and we are fighting hand to hand. The cruelty is very high. The enemy and we are mixed with each other and intertwined. The battlefield is highly dangerous. The biggest difference between street fighting and field fighting is that the battlefield is surrounded by countless buildings.

Segmentation means that any combat unit is in a relatively closed and narrow battlefield. Whoever is more familiar with the environment will be able to take more advantages in the battle.

All the officers and soldiers of the guerrilla troops who were defending against the Chinese soldiers in the counterattack took off their helmets. This was Gao Fei's fatal order to the guerrilla detachment. They should carry sufficient ammunition and as many grenades as possible, keep their bodies dry and warm, and take off their helmets.

Many officers and soldiers did not understand when they took off their steel helmets and brought back their soft-top hats, because they all regarded the steel helmets as the protectors of their heads. Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice to Mountains and Rivers 72407

But during the fierce battle, the officers and soldiers discovered the wisdom of the division. The helmet was too easy to expose the target, and even if it was hit by a bullet, if the helmet was not penetrated, the huge impact kinetic energy of the bullet would shake the soldier's neck.

Broken, so soldiers’ helmet straps are never tied in actual combat.

For the Japanese soldiers who were extremely nervous wearing helmets with tight straps, Nanchang East City was destined to become their grave. After a large number of casualties, the Japanese army also began to learn to be smarter, and also used small units to intersperse and cooperate with each other to deal with unfamiliar terrain.

For the Japanese army, this tactic of dispersed penetration of small units caused them heavy losses, and also made it easier for the Chinese defenders to take advantage of their firepower. The weapons and equipment of the Japanese infantry once again proved their so-called economical war theory relative to the opponent's level of armament.

It's pure nonsense.

Faced with casualties of at least ten to one in street fighting, Mitsuru Ushijima, the commander of the 36th Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Sixth Division, finally couldn't sit still. According to this level of casualties, it would take less than two days for his infantrymen to be defeated.
