This time Li Yunlong prepared a full 4,000 grenades for the Okazaki Brigade.
Among them, 2,000 were hand grenades made in the border areas and 2,000 were made in Germany.
4,000 grenades may be nothing in a battle.
But within two minutes, on such a narrow road, the lethality produced by 4,000 grenades, especially 2,000 large grenades, was undoubtedly terrifying.
After Wang Gensheng threw two rounds of grenades, he saw a Japanese soldier secretly shooting behind the truck.
Immediately, he took out a bundle of cluster grenades with 4 large knobs tied together from the ammunition box.
After pulling the string, do another run-up, and then throw it down violently.
The large cluster grenade landed on the truck accurately.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud bang, the Japanese truck was blown to pieces, and the Japanese hiding behind the truck was also blown into the sky.
A Japanese machine gunner set up a crooked handle and a Type 92 heavy machine gun under the gunfire, and fired toward the top of the mountain in an attempt to suppress the fire.
There were also Japanese grenadier soldiers firing grenades at the eight-way firepower point on the top of the mountain.
But at this moment, the artillery battery began to exert force, and the shells hit the Japs' heads in pieces.
Every time a shell exploded, it was almost accompanied by the screams of the Japanese and their broken limbs flying.
At this time, the new regiment's dozen Maxim heavy machine guns were finally set up by the machine gunner. The deputy shooter put the ammunition chain into the gun chamber, and the machine gunner pushed the bullet into the chamber and pressed the press iron from a high position.
A few seconds later, the hail of bullets arrived as expected.
The Maxim heavy machine gun screamed wildly and spewed out long tongues of flame, dropping barrage after barrage, forming a death barrage zone directly on the highway.
The Japanese who had been fighting trapped animals a few seconds ago panicked and fell helplessly to the ground, panicking for rocks, shallow pits, or corpses to avoid the rain of bullets coming down from above.
Okazaki Ichiro organized a charge under artillery fire and tried to rush out of the canyon, but he was quickly attacked and retreated leaving dozens of corpses behind.
Li Yunlong clearly saw from the top of the mountain that the Japanese were suffering heavy casualties under the gunfire and rain of bullets. If the fighting continued, all the Japanese would be almost dead.
It's time to rush down and fight the Japanese in hand-to-hand combat.
The future marshal once came to the conclusion: The troops who dare to bayonet and see the red are the troops with excellent quality.
Although the new regiment now has sufficient ammunition, hand-to-hand combat can very well cultivate courage and willpower for soldiers, even those new recruits who have just joined the Eighth Route Army.
"Corpser, blow the charge horn!" Li Yunlong looked coldly and shouted back.
Immediately afterwards, the rapid charge horn sounded. Li Yunlong took the Japs machete from the guard Huzi's hand, and then raised the Japs machete above his head: "Come down with me to collect corn, don't let a Japs escape!
"
In fact, the moment the charge bugle sounded, an overwhelming shout of killing could be heard from the top of the slope.
Thousands of Eighth Route Army soldiers held rifles with bayonets fixed, brandished machetes, and rushed down toward the Japanese with roars and screams.
The soldiers from the assault company were at the forefront. Dozens of submachine guns opened fire at the same time as they sprinted, forming a dense firepower network. The road was covered in smoke and dust under the dense rain of bullets.
Seeing the Eighth Route Army rushing down, the Japanese who survived by chance regained their strong character. They howled and fought back without any fear on their faces.
Some Japanese soldiers even launched a counterattack towards the hillside with bayonets in hand, but were instantly reduced to a honeycomb of blood by the dense rain of bullets.
On the hillside on the left, Li Yunlong was rushing down with a ghost head machete.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure surpassing him. He looked closely and saw that it was Sun Desheng, who was leading the soldiers of the cavalry company, wielding the Yunlong Sword and heading down the mountain like a ferocious tiger to kill the Japanese.
"Sun Desheng!" Li Yunlong became anxious and scolded sternly, "Why are you running so damn fast?"
"That can't be helped." Sun Desheng chuckled without looking back, "We cavalry are cavalry after all. Even if we dismount, we are still faster than the infantry!"
"Run slower for me!" Li Yunlong shouted angrily.
Sun Desheng, however, seemed as if he had not heard anything. As he charged, he shouted: "Charge the cavalry company to overtake the infantry!"
The 100-strong cavalry company, led by Sun Desheng, quickly overtook the first battalion and second company and caught up with the leading assault company.
Li Yunlong was so angry that he jumped to his feet, but he had no choice but to rush down with the ghost machete, shouting as he ran: "Leave Okazaki to me, I will kill him alive!"
Guaizi Mountain is not high, but the slope is relatively steep. More than a thousand people from the new group rushed down the slope like tigers descending the mountain. In less than two minutes, they reached the road and fought with the Japanese.
For a moment, bayonets clashed with a clanging sound, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
The soldiers of the assault company had already slung their submachine guns on their shoulders and pulled out the ghost machetes behind their backs.
The assault company was originally a machete company carefully trained by Zhang Dabiao. Each man has a machete and has learned Zhang Dabiao's eight sharp swords. They are all veterans who have survived many hand-to-hand battles.
However, Wei Dayong didn't like to use the ghost-head sword very much. He used a red-tassel gun with a white wax rod and a barrel diameter of two centimeters that he had modified.
This type of highly classical-style weapon has the dual killing function of a gun and a stick in traditional Chinese martial arts. In the hands of Wei Dayong, who is proficient in Chinese martial arts, the power of Sha Monk exerted by this weapon is the same as that of a Japanese soldier with a bayonet in his hand.
The Type 38 rifle is incomparable.
Wei Dayong's charging speed was extremely fast, almost charging at the front. As soon as he and the Japs got to grips with each other, he pierced two Japs soldiers in one confrontation.
This not only attracted the attention of the Japanese, but also the soldiers of the assault company were shocked by Wei Dayong's skill.
At that moment, four Japanese soldiers with bayonets came up and surrounded Wei Dayong.
The soldiers of the assault company were suddenly startled, wielding the ghost head machete and wanted to come up to help.
However, Wei Dayong's eyes were as wide as bells, and he shouted sharply: "Get out of my way, do you want to attack or what?"
Four bayonets kept thrusting at Wei Dayong. Wei Dayong dodged left and right, and struck frequently with the spear in his hand, but was blocked by the Japanese with rifles.
Suddenly, Wei Dayong suddenly fell to the ground on his back. The Japs were suddenly startled. The Japs who did not understand Chinese martial arts could not see the mystery of this move. They picked up their rifles and were about to strike at Wei Dayong who was on the ground.
The barrel of the gun in his hand roared and hit the ground with a 360-degree sweep, and the four Japanese soldiers screamed and fell down.
The force of the red tassel gun was so powerful that the ankle bones of the four Japanese soldiers were all broken. Wei Dayong jumped up from the ground with a pole and quickly and completely killed the four Japanese soldiers.
At this time, the assault company was already fighting with the Japanese, and the second-echelon cavalry company had just rushed onto the road.
Sun Desheng happened to see Wei Dayong kill four Japs in a row immediately after meeting him. He couldn't help but shouted at Wei Dayong: "Brother, you are very skilled, look at me!"
After saying that, Sun Desheng took the Yunlong Sword and rushed towards the Japanese with long strides!
