Chapter 69 Premonition

"Okay, you have already handed in four this morning." The fat logistician who taught the Second Regiment looked at the Southern pistol and the four sets of standard equipment of Japanese soldiers handed over by Liu Yangyang, with an undisguised look in his eyes.

Envy and jealousy. There are many search teams like Liu Yangyang and others in the city, but Liu Yangyang and others have brought back more Japanese weapons and military equipment. These are genuine military merits and rewards.

Until Liu Yangyang and the others were recruited to the city gate position again, Tang Cheng was still thinking about the fat quartermaster secretly exchanging Japanese military uniforms with Liu Yangyang with bullets and grenades. Unexpectedly, for a little military merit, the quartermaster actually

He dared to take the ammunition of the Second Regiment and make a private deal with Liu Yangyang. He boarded the city gate position again. What he saw in front of him made Tang Cheng look at him with suspicion. He had already thought that the city gate position would be severely beaten, but he did not expect such a scene.

.

The damage caused by the machine gun cluster position to the Japanese army far exceeded Tangcheng's expectation. The six heavy machine guns, which had already measured and designed the shooting parameters, gave full play to their firepower advantages under the cluster firepower. Although the heavy machine gun's long-distance shooting is not special

It is accurate but the advantage is that the bullet covers a large area, and the skilled cooperation of the shooter and the sub-shooter allows the advantages of the heavy machine gun to be maximized. Within a distance of 500 meters to one thousand meters, the condescending heavy machine gun begins to attack the Japanese troops attacking outside the city.

Perform strangulation.

Long and short burst firing of heavy machine guns is a nightmare for infantry. Burst firing not only trains the cooperation of machine gun novices, but also has an extremely high hit rate. The arrogant Japanese artillerymen who are accustomed to pushing infantry cannons to about 500 meters to fire directly at targets suffer even more losses.

It was disastrous. Their shields could not block the shooting angle of the heavy machine guns of the defenders at the city gate. Often, the artillerymen pushing the cannons and moving extremely slowly were almost killed by the heavy machine guns before they reached a distance of 800 meters.

The living people huddled in the corners of the shield, unable to push the artillery or fire at all. The two infantry cannons were thrown halfway and became decoys arranged by the defenders' machine gunners. The Japanese artillery and many Japanese soldiers who came up to support were all

Bodies were laid out around the infantry guns.

Although the squadron-level Japanese infantry combat groups preparing to act as commandos were advancing in dispersed formations and changing speeds, they still suffered heavy losses from machine gun snipers; they often had to lose one-third of their personnel before they could reach the fifth level where they were preparing to establish offensive positions.

A hundred meters away, and when they arrived at their destination and started digging trench fortifications, the Japanese soldiers who stopped and waved their engineer shovels became long-distance training targets for light machine guns and rifles.

Tang Cheng looked down at the past with Liu Yangyang's binoculars, and what he saw were almost all the corpses of Japanese soldiers wearing khaki military uniforms. This tragic scene of dead and injured corpses scattered everywhere made Tang Cheng excited. The guns all over the battlefield

The sound sounded like cracking in the wilderness. Amidst the "Ce Ce Ce Ce" machine gun fire, the telescope often appeared in twos and threes of fast-moving Japanese troops. Someone was shot. Under the powerful impact of the heavy machine gun bullets, the Japanese army was shot.

The person playing the ball will suddenly twist abnormally in the air like a kite with its string broken, and then fall down at an angle that looks very unnatural.

If those Japanese soldiers who were not shot stopped to rescue their comrades, they would probably be the next to be shot. The Japanese soldiers also used the captured grenades to attack the Japanese tanks and those that were finally dug out and barely usable.

During the bunker bombardment, every explosion that made the soldiers feel like they were falling into hell only appeared as a small flower in the telescope. It was great! In the face of the multi-layered firepower layout of the enemy, long-distance crossfire struck accurately.

According to tactics, there are at least more than 400 corpses left by the Japanese army outside the city. Adding the wounded who were snatched back, the casualties of the Japanese army outside the city at this moment must be at least more than 600.

The Japanese army cannot always be passively beaten. The defenders have light and heavy machine guns, but the Japanese army not only has light and heavy machine guns and infantry cannons, they also have larger caliber mountain artillery, field artillery, and most importantly, they also have aircraft. They lie down in sandbag bunkers.

Tangcheng behind had only time to admire it for less than five minutes. A sharp tearing sound came from the sky, and the Japanese artillery group opened fire on the Guanghuamen position again.

In the sky, artillery shells seemed to never stop flying continuously, and there were continuous explosions in the distance behind them. The black smoke, flames and dust rising from the entire Guanghuamen position rose into the air, completely covering the entire sky. Huge giants on the position.

The vibrations made people feel dizzy. Cold sweat poured down Tang Cheng's face while he was hiding behind the bunker. The defenders on all the city gates just lay quietly behind the adequate bunkers and did not dare to move, because

They were afraid that their actions would cause the city wall to collapse.

The air waves of the explosion rushed all the objects blocking them directly into the sky several meters high. The entire bricks collapsed from the ground into the air and then turned into fragments and scattered. The entire space of about five meters was covered by orange-red flames.

Red-hot rolling shrapnel and bullet casings mixed with the shock wave filled the entire space, and the Guanghuamen position had been turned into a sea of ​​​​fire by the Japanese artillery fire.

The Japanese bombardment finally ceased fire, and the gray-black smoke swirling in the air quickly dissipated. Only then did everyone realize that the position suddenly became quiet. The gray-faced defenders were lying on the devastated position.

There were some torn body parts scattered around them. Some of the body fragments were veterans, and some were just newly replaced reserve troops. The remaining defenders could only lie silently in their respective bunkers.

There is gunpowder smoke and rubble everywhere! The scorched corpses are smoking, and the soldiers who are still alive can only watch and cry silently. They will silently close their eyes for two or three seconds in silence for the dead brothers around them.

The position was already in chaos. When another wave of Japanese attacks came, Tang Cheng suddenly found that not only were people from the 87th Division and the 156th Division lying around him, but he also saw two military police training groups.

The people also lay down beside Liu Yangyang.

"What is this battle about? We didn't drive away the little Japs, but we disrupted our own troops." Liu Yangyang approached Tang Cheng and quietly handed him two grenades. He wandered around the city for a while.

The Second Company, which had been working all night, had no shortage of food. Liu Yangyang, a veteran with a dog nose, opened several shops in succession. Tang Cheng and their backpacks were already full of food. Tang Cheng took the grenade plug

He put it into his belt, but did not answer Liu Yangyang's words. He probably got these two grenades in exchange for those biscuits.

The people in the Second Company are all woodchucks. Tang Cheng and Jiujin like to rummage through the corpses of Japanese soldiers for anything that can be used. Liu Yangyang likes to exchange ammunition with nearby troops with the food that has eaten all over the world.

Everyone in the company tried their best to fill their bullet bags with bullets. The gun is the courage of the soldier, but if there are no bullets in the gun, then his courage will definitely not be great. These are the original words of Liu Yangyang, from the Second Company.

Everyone remembers it firmly in their hearts, including Tangcheng of course.

"When we fight, be careful and watch my gestures. When I tell you to retreat, you and Jiu Jin must follow me. Don't dare to get lost with me." A trace of violence flashed in Liu Yangyang's eyes.

He was angry, and then reached out and pretended to dust off Tang Cheng and slapped Tang Cheng heavily on the shoulder. Liu Yangyang's words were a bit meaningless, but Tang Cheng was not stupid. He followed Liu Yangyang so much.

Oh my god, I have a somewhat accurate idea of ​​Liu Yangyang's temperament. Tang Cheng believes that what Liu Yangyang said just now was by no means unreasonable. There must be some reason for Liu Yangyang to say what he just said.

When he turned around again, Liu Yangyang had already laid down behind the cover of several people. Although Liu Yangyang did not look at Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng could see a bad omen from Liu Yangyang's gloomy face. Tang Cheng

Cheng was slightly stunned at first, and then his heart was mixed with extremely complicated emotions. When the Second Company evacuated from Shanghai early that day, Xie Bo and Liu Yangyang had such virtues. Could it be said that Liu Yangyang would have to leave the battlefield early this time?

Retreat? Or is it because the city of Nanjing really cannot be defended?

"Da da da da da da" Just when Tang Cheng was thinking wildly, the machine guns on the position fired again. The officers began to repeat their roars, telling their soldiers to be ready to fire. Tang Cheng pulled the bolt and pushed the gun.

Loading the bullet, he subconsciously looked towards Liu Yangyang again. This time he and Liu Yangyang were facing each other, because Liu Yangyang was also turning to look at him. Tang Cheng was finally able to determine why Liu Yangyang said

Having said what he just said, this veteran scoundrel is probably going to do what he did when he came to Shanghai again, because Tang Cheng could clearly see the slightly red circles under Liu Yangang's eyes.

I don’t know if it can be regarded as a desperate attempt. During the gap when the Japanese troops outside the city were temporarily suppressed by their artillery fire at the Guanghua Gate position, they actually sent four tanks to attack the Guanghua Gate defenders’ position. The Japanese troops, who were furious, directly fired the tanks.

They pushed forward to the edge of the anti-tank trench and directly used the tanks' tank guns to suppress the firepower of the defenders' positions. I have to say that the Japanese army was really smart. They actually used the tanks as mobile forts.

In the case of artillery fire, it is indeed a wise choice to use tank cannons to suppress the defenders.

Just as Liu Yangang guessed, the Japanese army's ammunition supply could not keep up. Their artillery suppression only lasted for a few minutes before gradually weakening, and the mortars and grenades were also much sparse. The Japanese army did not

Without the artillery fire they relied on, what else could they have? The defenders regained their vitality after the opponent's artillery fire faded. Under the command of the officers, they re-reinforced the bunkers and waited for the opponent's new round of attack. Of course, in

Before that, the defenders need to kill those Japanese tanks that I should do.

Only now did Tangcheng know that the tragic Japanese army not only used death squads to deal with Japanese tanks, they also had a weapon called combat anti-cannon. Xie Chengrui's Second Regiment had three combat anti-cannons. When Zhonghua Gate was attacked by the Japanese army, it was in danger.

, Xie Chengrui pulled two of the three combat anti-cannons to support the Zhonghua Gate. The remaining one was also bombed into parts by the Japanese artillery the day before yesterday. The two combat anti-cannons now appearing in the position are

Brought by the 87th Division.
