Chapter 212 Great victory!(1/2)
Because the Japanese thought that the Eighth Route Army was coming to fight hand-to-hand.
Therefore, the distance between the two warring parties was very close.
The new group of soldiers deliberately closed the distance before firing.
At such a close distance, the firepower of the Garand semi-automatic rifle completely overwhelmed the Japs 38 rifle.
The little Japanese pulled the bolt of the gun to his shoulder, aimed and fired a shot. The soldiers of the new regiment had already fired two or three shots.
And this is the firepower used by the new group of soldiers to save bullets and aim again.
If it were like the US military's local tyrant style of play, if the Japanese 38-type rifle fired one shot, Garand had already fired four or five shots.
The remaining Japanese troops could not reach the new group of soldiers, let alone engage in hand-to-hand combat.
Ding ding ding!
After firing the last bullet, the ejector will eject the magazine from the magazine and make a crisp sound to remind the soldier to reload the bullet.
At this time, the submachine gun was put on top so that the firepower could be sustained. The soldiers loaded the bullets skillfully and continued to shoot at the Japanese.
In the beginning, there were indeed many soldiers who were not familiar with the ammunition supply method and got pinched by their fingers.
However, the soldiers have become proficient in reloading training countless times a day, and they will not pinch their fingers while loading bullets due to panic on the battlefield.
The Japanese were beaten back continuously under the fierce firepower.
Immediately afterwards, as if they had received an order, the Japanese turned around and ran, running towards the direction of Heshun County.
Naturally, the soldiers of the new regiment would not let go of the Japanese easily. They held semi-automatic rifles and chased the Japanese while shooting at them.
Many Japanese machine gunners set up their light and heavy machine guns in a panic, trying to stop the new group from charging.
But this is simply in vain, because there are not many machine gunners and machine guns left, and they are very scattered, lacking the cover of grenadiers and riflemen, so the Japanese machine guns cannot form an effective barrage at all, and can only
Everyone fights.
The new group of bazooka soldiers had already been waiting for the Japanese machine guns to be set up.
Not long after the enemy's machine gun fire started, they were hit by rocket launcher soldiers.
Now a new group of bazookas have been equipped with bazookas, and the bazooka soldiers' head turning is completely different from when they were equipped with bazookas.
It was accurate and large in number. Although it was not as exaggerated as overwhelming, almost every enemy firepower point was attacked by more than 2 rockets.
The Japanese who had just been blasted by artillery fire were once again blown to pieces.
Taking advantage of this moment, soldiers armed with Garand semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns chased the escaping Japanese.
However, these Japs were very good at shooting. Each one was first blown to pieces, and then attacked by a dense rain of bullets. They still raised their guns to fight back while running, hitting new groups of soldiers from time to time, but the next moment they would be hit by a hail of bullets.
The attack was directly beaten into a bloody sieve.
Seeing that the Eighth Route Army's firepower was so fierce, the Japanese simply stopped fighting and ran along the highway in the direction of Heshun County.
It was not until the Japs from Heshun County came out to respond and were already approaching Heshun County that the soldiers of the new regiment stopped pursuing them.
Only about 200 defeated soldiers of the Japanese 225th Regiment fled into Heshun County.
However, Li Yunlong had no intention of attacking Heshun County.
Because there are more than 500 Japanese and hundreds of puppet troops in Heshun County.
Although if we insist on fighting, Heshun County can definitely be captured, but Li Yunlong doesn't want to fight.
The reason is also very simple, because street fighting is very cruel, and the damage ratio of both sides in street fighting is one to one.
Because of the good equipment, when they were in Yangquan and Shouyang County, the battle loss ratio between the New Regiment and the Japanese was 1:1.5.
If it is a field battle, the new regiment can easily handle these thousands of Japanese and puppet troops.
But Li Yunlong would definitely not be willing to use a new regiment of elite soldiers to attack the county town and fight street battles with the Japanese and puppet troops, exchanging their lives for their lives.
The reason for attacking Yangquan was that there were only 200 Japanese soldiers left in Yangquan City, and there were also ammunition warehouses and grain depots that stored a large amount of military supplies.
The reason why Shouyang was beaten was because Ding Wei and Kong Jie were following him.
By the time Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang arrived at Moshi'ao, the battle in Moshi'ao was already over.
While the three infantry battalions were pursuing the pursuit, soldiers from the cavalry battalion, machine gun battalion and heavy machine gun battalion were cleaning the battlefield.
The soldiers of the cavalry battalion had not rested for almost two days, so Li Yunlong did not let the cavalry battalion participate in the battle. However, Sun Desheng was not a man who could rest idle. He led the cavalry battalion to clean the battlefield. The cavalry also killed many Japanese who refused to surrender and wounded them.
soldiers.
More than an hour later, the three main infantry battalions chasing the Japanese also returned.
Many soldiers were carrying Type 38 rifles and Japanese cartridge belts, and some were carrying crooked machine guns and Type 92 heavy machine guns.
There are even grenades and mortars.
The steel helmet, the tortoise box, the belt, and the Japanese combat boots were also spared.
A lot of money was seized.
Although the equipment of the new regiment was better than that of the Japs, the soldiers were accustomed to living a hard life and did not dislike the Japs' weapons and equipment.
After all, who can have too many weapons and equipment?
From the battalion commander to the soldiers, the corners of everyone's mouth turned up slightly.
Li Yunlong looked here and there with a satisfied look on his face: "Not bad, not bad, you made a damn little fortune?"
All the commanders and soldiers burst into laughter.
Immediately, Li Yunlong looked at Zhang Dabiao, who had a Japanese helmet on his head. When he saw this, Li Yunlong knew that this boy had wasted another military cap.
But this time Li Yunlong was not prepared to blame him.
Li Yunlong then asked the guards to call the second battalion commander Zheng Yu and the third battalion commander Xu Yonghai.
Li Yunlong got straight to the point and asked: "How many Japanese escaped?"
The business this time was to count medicines and large-caliber heavy machine guns according to the number of Japs.
Therefore, what Li Yunlong is most concerned about is how many Japanese were killed in this battle.
"Report to the captain!" Zhang Dabiao looked at the second and third battalion commanders, and then said, "About 200 Japanese escaped and fled into Heshun County."
200 escaped?
Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes when he heard this and quickly calculated in his mind.
According to the calculation of more than 3,000 Japanese soldiers in a regiment, the number of Japs killed by the cavalry battalion, plus tonight's battle, should be no less than 3,000 Japs killed.
Killing 500 Japanese soldiers will result in 5 tons of medicine and 30 large-caliber heavy machine guns.
Killing the 3,000 Japs would require 30 tons of medicine and 180 large-caliber heavy machine guns?
After calculating the deal, Li Yunlong felt secretly happy. If he wasn't careful, we, Mr. Li, would get rich again.
Zhang Dabiao, Zheng Yu and Xu Yonghai saw that Li Yunlong was silent and thought that the leader was angry, so they couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"Captain?" Xu Yonghai, commander of the third battalion, asked tentatively, "We let go of Japs No. 200. How about you punish us? That will make us feel better."
"Punishment?" Li Yunlong snorted, "The Japs No. 200 just ran away. It's no big deal. We killed no less than Japs No. 3,000 this time. Each of you counts as one. I will apply to the Brigade Headquarters to apply for a commendation for you. One
Can't even run away."
The three battalion commanders all looked happy and said in unison: "Thank you, commander!"
At this time, Zhao Gang and Sun Desheng walked towards Li Yunlong.
Zhao Gang said: "Old Li, I have already drafted a telegram and asked Comrade Fang Lei to send it to the brigade headquarters about the news of our victory."
"Okay!" Li Yunlong nodded, "The battle between Yushe and Liao County has been dragging on for almost two days. It's time for the brigade commander and the others to close the net."
Then, Li Yunlong looked at Sun Desheng again: "Sun Desheng, your cavalry battalion is also tired. You should take the soldiers back to rest first."
The cavalry battalion rode all night to the north of Heshun to harass and sneak attack the Japanese. They worked hard for two nights and one day without sleeping a wink.
However, the cavalry are better than the Japs in that they ride horses, while the Japs walk on two legs, so they can still withstand it now.
"Captain is not tired." Sun Desheng held his head high and said, "Looking at the corpses of the Japanese all over the ground, our cavalry battalion is not tired at all, really."
Li Yunlong glared and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? All cavalrymen are my treasures. If the cavalrymen are exhausted, be careful and I will beat you up. Hurry up and lead the team back to rest!"
"Yes!" Sun Desheng quickly raised his hand in salute, turned around and walked towards his army horse.
