Being located on the last carriage is not as exaggerated as the appearance of another steel bunker!
Although the fortification is also made of steel plates, since it has no top, it is considered a semi-open fortification, but the exposed weapons can scare the bejesus out of all Japanese.
Because, it turned out to be a 20mm machine gun.
No wonder the battle hadn't even started yet. The two sides were shooting at each other for a while, and the carriage seemed to be falling apart as if it had been hit by a cannonball. I'm sorry, the recoil of the machine gun inside was too great, and the Chinese wanted to destroy the carriage.
If it's broken up, just put the cannon on the ground.
The Japanese are also elites who have been on the battlefield for a long time, and they immediately figured out the cause and effect.
Unfortunately, this was of no help to the fierce attack they were about to encounter. The Chinese gunner, who was blocked by the steel plate, had already stepped on the pedal and fired at the target that the observer had already selected.
That was one of the four grenade launchers that had been completely exposed.
The Japanese grenadier actually chose a good position. It was behind a big rock facing the mountain road and more than 350 meters away from the mountain road. If he was attacked, not to mention the machine gun rifle would be useless to him, even the grenade grenade would probably be very effective.
It's hard to hurt him.
Unless there is a marksman who can throw grenades to an area with an accuracy of 5 meters, but is that really possible?
Just like the Chinese did not believe that Japanese grenadiers would throw grenades hundreds of meters away into the exaggerated steel bunkers they built.
But what about direct-fire guns? Especially machine guns that can penetrate 10 mm steel plates at a distance of 500 meters?
No one could tell the cautious Japanese grenade hand who was jumping around.
After all, practice is the only criterion of truth!
Heizi showed everyone at the scene the brutality of a machine gun hitting the target with 20 shells in an area of 5 square meters.
The deputy commander of the reconnaissance company used his terrifying arm strength to prove that any technique is futile in the face of huge power. The 20mm machine gun can also be used as a sniper rifle.
The stone, which is less than half a meter thick, blocked the first cannon and even the first ten cannons. However, the Taihang Mountain rocks are mainly quartz sandstone, followed by limestone. The hardness of both rocks is sufficient, but they lack some toughness.
It is often said to be relatively brittle. If it is repeatedly hammered, it may crack.
That's almost 100%!
As a result, the stone bunker that held all the hopes of the Japanese grenade launchers shattered into pieces as if being hit by stone chips from a stone drill!
A handful of red flowers bloomed on the hillside, like a blood-red epiphyllum in full bloom.
There was no scream, but five or six consecutive rounds of artillery shells after crushing the entire boulder directly tore the grenadier behind him into countless pieces.
Only after the war can we have a chance to take stock.
"Damn it!" Fujiwara Senzuo's cold face showed an angry look again.
These Chinese people even carried heavy weapons like machine guns. If he hadn't been 100% sure, he would be sure that this was an encounter after the Chinese saw through it. A dozen Chinese people were killed in the mountains and forests behind.
The corpses of the Chinese mountain people and the corpses of more than a dozen Chinese mountain people passing by since then are the best proof. He will definitely think that this is a trap that the Chinese have set long ago, waiting for him to escape.
"Hit the firepower and kill that machine gun first!" Senio Fujiwara gave the order again.
A few sparks suddenly flashed out from the steel plates on both sides of the machine gun and the steel plate shield on the front. The Japanese's marksmanship was also impressive. At least five riflemen quietly aimed their guns without the commander's order.
I just emptied a 20-round bullet.
Fortunately, during the design, Tang Dao took into consideration that if the enemy was encountered while marching, the machine gun would be too close to the enemy and it would be easy for the opponent's sharpshooters to find a gap and hit it.
Therefore, the machine gun shield was increased by 20 centimeters, which just blocks the gunner's face. The gap between the two sides and the steel plate is only 2 centimeters at most. Although this sacrifices the machine gun gunner's field of vision and the machine gun's firing range, as long as it can
Just protect the gunner and keep suppressing the enemy's most threatening grenade shooter.
The lost field of vision will be provided by Xia Dayu, a good observer, through the observation hole to continuously provide the gunner with the direction and distance.
"You idiot, you dare to attack me without even looking at what I'm wearing!" Heizi sneered when he felt the movement coming from the steel plate.
Kuroko has never been so confident.
In order to protect him better, Tang Tuanzuo actually resorted to the tactics of ancient heavy cavalry.
A thin steel mask is installed on the lower edge of the special steel helmet, which protects the entire face and neck except for exposing the eyes.
Although it can't block 62mm bullets, it can still block the fragments of a grenade that explodes 2 meters away.
He was even wearing a bulletproof vest with small steel plates inserted in the front and back. The thickness of the steel plate reached 5 mm. According to Tang Tuanzuo, unless he was particularly unlucky and the Japanese bullets found the gap in the steel plate, just using a rifle would be enough.
You can't kill him.
The only drawback is that this bulletproof vest is too heavy. It weighs 60 kilograms in total. If it were replaced by someone else, it would be difficult to even lift it up and put it on, let alone wearing it in combat.
Fortunately, Heizi is tall and strong, and his tendons are enough for him to easily lift this body armor and equip himself at any time. In addition, this mission does not require him to control the MG34 machine gun, he only needs to sit on the fortification that hangs the sky.
You only need to control the machine gun here, and there are people to assist you in loading the bullet plate and observing the target.
That's right, it was the Four Lines Regiment's air defense company that was involved in several consecutive air-to-air battles. Because machine gunners and Japanese planes fired at each other, a lot of casualties were caused by ricochet caused by heavy machine gun bullets. After Tang Dao's suggestion
Next, the newly established Ordnance Department took the lead in designing this primary heavy-duty 'body armor'.
However, due to problems such as steel plate material and design process, as well as the rush required by Tang Dao, a lot of shortcomings such as bulkiness and insufficient bulletproof performance, the possibility of the first generation of heavy body armor being put into actual combat is actually not high.
However, Tang Dao was still brought along by Tang Dao who was on the mission this time, and Heizi was equipped with it.
Because Tang Dao knew that he might encounter an extremely strong opponent this time, it was always a good idea to be just in case.
Yes, although Tang Dao was not clairvoyant, but since he heard that when the 80th Army fought with the Japanese 16th Division, a brigade-level field hospital in the rear was attacked by the Japanese, and nearly 2 infantry platoons of the guards were killed, and the medical staff
The moment he suffered heavy casualties and casualties, he smelled a familiar smell.
The Japanese secret service team actually showed up in advance.
In the past time and space, it would have had to wait until one year later.
Because the Eightyth Army continued to expand its guerrilla zone, except for the heavily garrisoned cities in North China, which were relatively safe for the Japanese army, the vast rural areas were full of dangers. It was unrealistic for the Japanese army to continuously organize large numbers of troops into the mountains to 'suppress bandits'.
Being forced to do so, he even resorted to the trick of organizing elite troops to disguise themselves as the 80th Army and sneak into the guerrilla zone to infiltrate, sabotage and even attack command institutions.
Don't tell me, this plan really caught the Eightyth Army off guard in the early stages. Even the sacrifice of the famous general of the Eightyth Army was due to the factors of these special agents.
But now, perhaps inspired by the Four Lines Regiment's frequent dispatch of elite squads to conduct reconnaissance and attacks behind enemy lines, he came with the special agent team in advance.
Moreover, after Tang Dao made detailed inquiries to the headquarters, he was surprised to find that the Japanese people's learning ability is too strong.
They didn't just pick out the elite of the army and mount their troops hastily. They even had special skills such as camouflage, lurking, and deception, fully possessing the prototype of a special force.
For example, in the battle that was attacked at night, the brigade's field hospital was defended by an infantry company. Although most of the soldiers were recruits recruited just last year, the brigade fought fiercely in northern Shanxi for more than half a year and participated in the battle at Pingping Pass.
, is a powerful brigade whose combat effectiveness is no less than that of the 683rd Brigade, and its combat effectiveness is evident.
But the Japanese troops all wore the gray military uniforms of the Eightyth Group Army, and the weapons they used were mostly Hanyang-made rifles and submachine guns. They spoke fluent Chinese and reported the correct formation of friendly forces, which caused the company commander to completely relax his vigilance.
, but when he approached and asked again, the Japanese army took the lead in attacking, but the veteran who did not die in the thousands-mile transfer died in the first wave of Japanese attacks.
This also caused the company's military morale to be in chaos, and a small number of Japanese troops even took advantage of the chaos to rush into the defense area and wreak havoc. In the end, although they continued to organize troops to attack the Japanese troops, serious consequences were unavoidable, and more than 80 of our own people died in this battle.
By the time nearby troops heard the sound of gunfire and came to support, the Japanese troops, whose number would never exceed one infantry platoon, had all evacuated, leaving only seven corpses without any proof of their identity.
In that battle, in terms of casualties, the ratio was over 20 to 1, especially since there were a large number of medical personnel.
My own mistakes were on the one hand, but they also indirectly illustrated the strong combat effectiveness of the Japanese army.
The fiery deputy commander-in-chief of the 80th Army who received the news immediately threw his hat and pointed at the ashamed brigade commander and scolded him for ten minutes. Two colleagues of the same rank persuaded him.
It took him a while to gradually calm down.
But that's not all. The brigade commander became the only brigade commander who was not commended and had to write a review after the war. It was because of the mistakes in this battle.
Many generals, including Brigadier Cheng, complained about him and thought the punishment was too much.
Perhaps, it was because they didn't know how fearful and angry the deputy commander-in-chief, who had a strong personality, was towards the small group of Japanese troops that sneaked into the rear to cause destruction.
In the past time and space, in the Battle of Guanjianao that was going to happen soon, he would kill 500 of the enemy even at the cost of 2,000.
Bloody lessons always lead to self-reflection, especially this kind of early self-reflection. Although Tang Dao mentioned counter-infiltration in the staff meeting, it was never as profound as when the knife fell on him and he had enough painful realizations.
Tang Dao believed that in just one battle, the smart bosses of the Eightyth Army, which was about to launch a large-scale guerrilla operation, would figure out a way to deal with the Japanese special forces, and there was no need for Tang Dao to talk nonsense.
Of course, this battle reminded Tang Dao that sooner or later he would have to face off against the newly formed Japanese special agent team on the battlefield.
Even, maybe there is no need to wait any time, we will definitely meet in the near future.
Because, in his hands is something that the Japanese most want to take or destroy—Yamashita.
This is not intuition, but a rigorous logical inference.
Tang Dao made the right decision.
The furious Gen Sugami who was devastated by top-secret intelligence a few days ago, after regaining his composure, found Saburo Okabe who had not yet resigned from office. On Saburo Okabe's suggestion, he issued a secret order to fly to the front line in southeastern Shanxi.
Captain Fujiwara Senio, center left, who was known as the "Kamikaze Agent" within Japan's North China Front and was given Gen Sugamigi's last hope, accepted this mission.
The originally arrogant Fujiwara Senzuo not only lost all his elites in the battle in Zhengcheng, he was also seriously injured and lost his family's treasured sword. If the front army intelligence department did not do their best to cover his escape in view of his family's prestige, I am afraid he would have also
Died in China like his unlucky brother.
If it had been anyone else, he would have arrived so impressively, yet left so embarrassed, and he might have fallen into a state of decadence due to extreme social death.
But Fujiwara Senio is an extraordinary person. He is not only proud, but also has the ultimate pursuit of martial arts. How can he easily let his emotions fall into the abyss just because of a little setback?
He actually regarded this as a hurdle in his martial arts practice. Stepping over it might be a qualitative transformation. Fujiwara Senzuo, who recovered from serious injuries in only 10 days, went directly to the indoor shroud, hoping to join the military.
, use the war-torn battlefield to hone yourself.
Of course, only in this way can he have a chance to fight with the opponent who is tied with him.
Through a battle with Tang Dao, he knew that Tang Dao was a layman in martial arts practice, but Tang Dao's deadly moves were either life-or-death, but in actual combat, he was not inferior at all and was even better than him.
A master of martial arts who has been carefully trained.
How could this make Fujiwara Senzuo willing? It also gave him a slight interest in the battlefield where life and death are common. Perhaps, in such a place full of killing, his martial arts practice would also be improved.
The then commander of Japan's North China Front, Indoor Shroud, was not completely exhausted at that time, so he was naturally very interested in clinging to the Fujiwara family's thighs. He not only satisfied the wish of the eldest son of the Fujiwara family to join the army, but also took advantage of the privileges of the commander of the North China Front.
He was given the rank of Army Center Left.
This not only expresses the importance he attaches to the Fujiwara family, but also indirectly raises the level of a small number of elite troops proposed by Fujiwara Senzuo in the army. However, the establishment of 200 people has almost reached the infantry brigade level, which is very rare in Japan.
There is absolutely no such thing in the history of the army.
Once successful, it fully demonstrates his foresight in war.
It can only be said that Indoor Shroud is really an old fox. If Tang Dao had not united Wu and Zhang in Taierzhuang, the two commanders had tricked him and made him walk off the stage in a gray manner. The difficulty of the North China battlefield might have gone up a level.
.
Although Gen Sugamigi was a bigger official than Uchishou Yi and had a stronger influence in the Japanese military circles, in Tang Dao's opinion, in terms of command and combat ability, he was still inferior to Uchime Shroud.
Just like the Battle of Southeast Shanxi, Shanshan Yuan was too eager when he first arrived in the North China battlefield. If he had been given another month or two to observe the battlefield, I'm afraid he would have discovered that it might be difficult to storm the other line of defense on the east side of Linfen.
It is much smaller than the southeastern part of Shanxi, despite the fact that the Chinese army has deployed more troops on that defense line.
But, there are more factions.
The outcome of not being able to twist all the forces into one rope will naturally be to be defeated one by one!
Unfortunately, Shan Shanyuan overestimated himself and underestimated the 80th Army, the main force in the Taihang Mountains.
Therefore, we ended up in this situation, and we had to pin the chance to restore the honor of the Imperial Army on the 'Kamikaze Force' that Fujiwara Sentō Nakasago established for only three months.
Why is it called Kamikaze? It came from the inspiration of His Majesty General Indoor Shroud. I hope that this infantry, which is the first all-elite infantry of the Imperial Army, can sneak into the enemy's rear as silently as a gust of wind, and can destroy the invaders who once wanted to invade.
The empire's Meng Yuan fleet was like a divine wind that harvested the enemy's lives wantonly.
Undoubtedly, His Majesty the Indoor Shroud General's wishes are extremely good.
If this person knew that in a certain time and space, his Imperial Navy had once formed such a fighter force called the 'Kamikaze', and its combat method was nothing more than a suicide attack, this unlucky child would probably put himself at risk.
The proud code name was stuffed back into my head.
Needless to say, Fujiwara Senzuo, among the nearly 200 elites drawn from each division, there are more than a dozen who are not elite soldiers, but have noble status. It is really because of the unknown name he took that he is a loser.
Bones must not be broken.
Fortunately, he has now stepped down, and all his unlucky attributes have been lost to his successor, Gen Sugami.
In other words, Fujiwara Senzuo, center left, who became famous in one battle after using seven lives to secretly attack a Chinese army field hospital and win a complete victory, was finally fooled by the unlucky name given by a certain fallen general.
Do you really think that all these preparations made by Tang Tuanzuo are just preparations for a rainy day?
No, I was already ready to fuck him.
From the moment he sent the message to the Second Theater Command that he was about to pass through the 104th Division's defense area, Tang Dao already knew that if he wanted to rely on those guys to keep secrets without being known by senior Japanese spies, it would be better to believe that a pig can climb a tree.
To be more precise, that message was just a bait thrown by Tang Dao, waiting for the arrival of the Japanese special agent team.
Then, they really came, in this ambush terrain that didn't seem particularly suitable.
Because the more appropriate it is, the more likely it is to arouse people's vigilance. Fujiwara Senzuo understands psychological logic.
After all, the code name was chosen unluckily. The prey was actually the hunter all along, so what kind of psychological tricks could there be?
