The automatic rifles and submachine guns in the hands of the attacking troops used the rate of fire that was several times that of the 38-type rifles in the hands of the enemy in front of them. The police escorts who were forced out of the bunker group were beaten up and down. The two behind them were beaten up and down.
The general-purpose machine gun, using its rate of fire much higher than that of the Taisho 11-year-old light machine gun, beat these Puppet Manchukuo military and police officers, who were actually genuine foreigners, even though they were wearing Puppet Manchukuo military uniforms, so that they could not hold their heads up, making it difficult to launch an attack.
Two platoons broke into the Japanese position in the shortest possible time.
The two platoons that broke into the Japanese position were not polite at all. When they encountered anyone who wanted to join together to resist, they would either directly attack them with a grenade, or they would directly launch a grenade from the 57mm recoilless rifle behind them.
Solve it. Anyway, in one sentence, fight the battle as quickly as possible.
When those Koreans trained by the Kwantung Army tried to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Anti-Japanese Alliance who rushed into their positions, they found that the Type 38 rifles in their hands were too long. In the trenches, they could not fight with the opponent at all.
Compared with the short and powerful rifles in their hands, the opponent did not give them a chance to fight with bayonets.
What frightens these people even more is that when faced with the extremely fast-firing rifle in the opponent's hand, the Type 38 rifle in their own hands is like a fire stick. They don't give them a chance to fight with the bayonet, and the shooting is not resistance.
The defenses of the puppet Manchukuo military and police gradually began to collapse.
No one thought that it was not the recruited North Korean student soldiers who were unable to withstand it first, but the so-called Japanese police officers and the so-called Japanese police officers who were always considered to have the strongest willpower among the defenders. The ones who resisted the most fiercely
But they were precisely those Koreans who were actually considered not very reliable by the Kwantung Army.
These Japanese police officers were originally deputy directors and police sergeants with real power in the police stations in various counties, or they were retired soldiers who were mobilized for the second or even third time. They were not married to those regular field divisions at home, so they seemed a little indifferent.
Compared with other young officers, he was already raising a family.
The determination of these people to fight to the death has almost disappeared as they grow older and the burden on their families increases. Although the war situation in front of them has also inspired some of the bestiality that the Japanese are accustomed to, but this bestiality
The maintenance time is proportional to the progress of the battle.
And for those guys who are Japanese policemen, if you ask them to check their household registration, arrest workers, collect people's wealth, and maintain order, it's okay. But if you let them fight hard on such a face-to-face battlefield, in the end, no matter what
Their own abilities and their own bravery are very different.
When these people have an absolute advantage on the battlefield, they can barely maintain the situation. But if they are in an unfavorable situation and they insist on knowing that they will die, it will be a bit difficult. What these people are better at is bullying the weak and fearing the strong, and
It's not a fight to the death.
When they have strong fortifications that they think they can rely on, they will naturally work very hard and fight tenaciously. But if after the fortifications are destroyed, they are allowed to fight a face-to-face field battle with an army armed to the teeth.
It's just difficult.
What's more, these people are not serious Japanese soldiers at all. The bushido spirit that the Japanese army has always paid attention to is just a vague term for them. Their loyalty to the emperor is not at all, but it is different from those fanatical
Compared with young officers, they are in heaven and on earth.
If you let this kind of person have the determination and tenacious fighting will to fight to the end when facing a powerful enemy, it is almost equivalent to letting them die directly. On the contrary, those Koreans recruited by them were relatively beaten.
Much more tenacious. Even when these Japanese police officers and policemen took the lead in breaking away from their positions and turning around and running in the direction of Tao Laizhao, these Koreans were still resisting.
The tenacious resistance of these Koreans brought a lot of trouble to the First Battalion. By the time the Puppet Manchukuo police squadron on the Xinyuan front line was completely defeated, the First Battalion Commander looked at his watch and realized that half an hour had passed.
.Cao Hui, who had caught up from behind, looked at the half hour that had passed on his watch, and the expression on his face became somewhat darkened.
Seeing the political commissar's downcast expression, the first battalion commander looked a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that some Puppet Manchukuo policemen, whom he had so little regard for, actually delayed the entire march for half an hour. No wonder the political commissar was angry.
We haven't reached half of the journey yet, but the four hours given by our superiors are already halfway through.
Although since setting off from Xin'an, except for Xinyuan, there has been no Japanese attack along the way. And the distance of twenty kilometers is not really too far. It only takes a few dozen minutes to get there by car, not even more than
It only takes half an hour. But no matter how strong your body is, it is impossible for you to carry weapons and ammunition all over your body and run to your destination in one breath.
Four hours and a march of 20 kilometers, it seems that the time specified by the superiors is still very generous. But you must know that during the war, an anti-alliance fighter carried a rifle, ammunition, grenades, plus dry food bags and backpacks.
, carrying a full weight of nearly twenty kilograms.
With these loads on the body, even at the speed of a forced march, it is quite good to be able to walk six kilometers per hour. On the way, we have to deal with very likely unexpected situations. In addition, the time required to capture the Taolaizhao front line
It is also included in the calculation, so the four hours does not seem so generous, and can even be said to be a bit tense.
The leading company in Xinyuan, a small village, wasted half an hour when facing no more than a squadron of Puppet Manchukuo military police. No wonder Cao Hui was a little angry. Although Xinyuan was stuck heading south to Tao Laizhao
It is an inevitable place to pass, but it is difficult for Cao Hui to accept being delayed here for such a long time.
The reason why Cao Hui let the first battalion commander personally command the vanguard company was because he was worried that the vanguard would be held back by a small group of enemy troops. Although he had not taken over the regiment for a long time, since the campaign started, as the regiment's political commissar, he still had a relatively negative attitude towards the troops.
I understand. I know that the troops, from the regiment leader He Fangren to the ordinary soldiers below, are holding their breath from top to bottom because they haven't won any battles.
He was worried that when the troops saw the enemy, their eyes would turn red and they would ignore them and be stuck by a small group of Japanese and puppet troops, delaying the process of moving south. That's why he specifically asked the first battalion commander to personally lead the vanguard company to avoid conflicts between the troops and the enemy.
When the army encounters a situation, a hot-headed and careless attitude affects the actions of the entire army.
The commander of the first battalion is a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War, with rich practical experience, and he is steady but inflexible. Let him lead the leading company because he wants to use his practical experience to control the rhythm of the troops. He is worried that when the troops see the enemy, they will
My eyes were red, I ignored it, and was stuck by a small group of Japanese and puppet troops, which delayed the progress of the southward march. Letting a more stable person lead the group can avoid this situation.
In the end, I didn’t expect that it was the veteran commander of the first battalion who had the problem. The first person to be jealous was this guy. In half an hour, it might affect the entire battle process. As a veteran who has experienced the Long March
As a veteran, Cao Hui knows that many times, half an hour on the battlefield can even affect the fate of the entire battle.
Seeing that the first battalion commander in front of him was somewhat ashamed, Cao Hui shook his head. He couldn't be entirely blamed for this matter. But as a veteran with rich battlefield experience, he should not have stayed here for such a long time. His mission
It is to open a passage south for the follow-up troops, rather than to attack the Zhonglong Railway.
He could completely destroy several Japanese and puppet army bunkers west of Xinyuan that blocked the road with firepower, then use one force to watch the enemies in Xinyuan Village, wait for the follow-up troops to deal with this group of enemies, and then lead the troops to forcefully pass through.
Xinyuan continues to go south. This can buy a lot of time, and the whole army will not be blocked here for half an hour.
Moreover, although the casualties in the Xinyuan battle were not large, the ammunition consumption was quite large. Almost one-third of the general-purpose machine gun ammunition they carried was destroyed, and half of the recoilless artillery shells were consumed. After the troops arrived at the Taolaizhao front line, they faced
We still don’t know what the situation is like, but now we have consumed so much ammunition.
My own army was organized in the Ninth Division, but it was strengthened to the Seventh Division, and now it is under the direct command of the column. It has become a character that my grandma does not care for and my uncle does not love. But now Fuyu and Yushu are fighting together, and all aspects of
The demand for ammunition is very high. Who knows when the subsequent replenishment of ammunition will arrive.
Nowadays, all the automatic weapons in the army consume a lot of ammunition. Those general machine guns alone are a big consumer of ammunition. To be honest, this kind of light and heavy dual-purpose machine gun has the fastest rate of fire I have ever seen.
Machine guns. Whether it is a Czech light machine gun, a Browning light machine gun, or a captured Japanese machine gun equipped by the customs forces, none of them can compare.
Even the Type 24 heavy machine gun and the Type 92 heavy machine gun, the two most common heavy machine guns on the Guanzhai battlefield, cannot be compared. But the fast rate of fire means that the consumption of ammunition is also large. In just half an hour
In the battle, two thousand rounds of ammunition were fired. This is almost unimaginable in the customs.
Once the supplementary ammunition cannot be delivered in time, how can the subsequent battles be fought? The ammunition used by the Anti-Japanese Alliance's active light weapons is not compatible with the Japanese ammunition. Even if the Japanese ammunition is captured, it cannot be used. Without ammunition,
These weapons are only slightly stronger than fire sticks. Especially the automatic rifle. Without the supply of ammunition, how can the short gun body and bayonet be the opponent of the Type 38?
After all, the old Red Army and the Eighth Route Army, who came from the pass and had never fought a war under sufficient supply conditions, obviously considered the problem much more carefully than the anti-alliance cadres who seem to be a bit extravagant now. He considered not only the ability to
If you cannot rush to the location required by your superiors within the specified time, there will be problems with follow-up operations.
Since the re-establishment of the Anti-Resistance Alliance, there has been no shortage of ammunition that has affected combat deployment. In many cases, the old anti-League cadres who appear to be a bit extravagant on the battlefield do not think in such detail. In their case,
It seems that as soon as they go to the battlefield, the headquarters will consider the issue of ammunition and supplies. They only need to fight well. Anyway, for them, even if there is no way to replenish it on land, the headquarters will still air-drop ammunition for them. What do they have?
