In fact, his tactics, combined with the Japanese army's extremely strong individual combat capabilities and its highly impactful infantry attack tactics, are a very risky strategy for any army. Even if it was changed last year, it would still be a very risky strategy.
For a unit whose main infantry equipment is bolt-action rifles and bulky heavy machine guns, he may not yet have the confidence.
Put the enemy troops within 200 meters and open fire. The troops responsible for the defense task will not have an advantage. The terrain is flat and there is no large amount of artillery support. Unless he really wants to engage in close combat and hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army, otherwise this
This style of fighting is very easy for the Japanese to break through. Even if they can hold on, the number of casualties and losses will be quite large.
The shooting level of Japanese soldiers within three hundred meters is incomparable even to the current Anti-Japanese Alliance. The threat of grenade launchers to the machine guns that serve as front-line defense firepower support is also quite huge. Once the machine guns are knocked out, the rifles will
When the firepower cannot form a sufficient density, and the troops and defensive terrain do not occupy an absolute advantage, this style of play is quite dangerous.
Even for a force with a strong will like the Anti-Japanese Alliance, this tactic is very dangerous. The most important thing is the huge casualties, which are unbearable for ordinary troops. Since the Anti-Japanese Alliance came back, all defensive battles fought
, almost the losses were quite large.
In this case, when a large number of anti-aircraft machine guns are equipped with troops and are not engaged in air defense operations, they should be fired flatly. Take advantage of the long range to destroy or block the Japanese machine gun fire, grenade launchers, and 92 infantry artillery fire range.
The situation can be alleviated only after keeping it in place and preventing it from penetrating into the optimal firepower display range.
Last year's Anti-Japanese War still relied on bulky heavy machine guns as the core of infantry firepower. The Japanese army's grenade launchers and Taisho 11-year-old infantry flat-fire cannons posed a considerable threat to heavy machine guns. Once the heavy machine guns were knocked out, the frontline
The entire firepower core of the infantry will be destroyed. If the front-line commander hesitates a little or has poor psychological quality, it will create an opportunity for the Japanese army to break through across the board.
But now the army only has high-rate automatic rifles, equipped with seventy-five-round drum magazines. The sustained firepower far exceeds that of ordinary machine guns.
A general-purpose machine gun that can move quickly.
Coupled with the range and power, the two large-caliber dual-purpose machine guns, which far exceeded the range of the Japanese machine guns and grenade launchers, and the fully equipped mortars gave him such solid confidence. With these sophisticated weapons
With the infantry equipment in hand, even if he lacked artillery support, Hai Jingqing was quite confident.
He believed that even if the Japanese army were to fire within 200 meters, the infantry weapons equipped by his troops would build a dense firepower network in front of the position, which could intercept the Japanese offensive. Even if the Japanese army had a fierce attack
Artillery fire cover, but the ground battle still needs to be solved by infantry.
At this distance, the Japanese soldiers' ability to shoot with high accuracy can indeed be brought into full play. However, this distance is also the best fire range for the automatic rifles currently equipped by the Anti-Japanese Alliance. The distance of 200 meters is not only about shooting accuracy.
, it’s more about the rate of fire.
No matter how well-trained a rifleman is, the bullets fired per unit time will never surpass that of an automatic rifle that fires exclusively automatically. Not to mention that this kind of rifle not only has a fast rate of fire, but also has a very high accuracy and can be used almost anywhere.
There's no way to describe it. As long as soldiers who have completed the training program can take advantage of the rifle's fast rate of fire and high shooting accuracy, they can suppress the Japanese troops in front of them.
If two veterans adopt cross-firing tactics, they can easily suppress a Japanese rifle group within a distance of 200 meters. They can even suppress a 92 heavy machine gun without any problems. You must know that at 200 meters
Within the distance, the firepower density of this automatic rifle is almost equivalent to that of a light machine gun.
The technical level of the Japanese army's artillery is indeed quite superb. Within a range of three thousand meters, their artillery can fire a single gun, and within a distance of fifty meters between the skirmishers of the two armies, it will not accidentally damage its own.
Troops. And their level of barrage shooting is also quite superb.
However, any artillery unit can easily suppress a few machine guns when implementing fire suppression, but it cannot fully suppress infantry firepower. The intensity of infantry firepower on the front line is equivalent to equipping each person with one machine gun.
In the case of light machine guns, no matter how powerful the Japanese artillery was, they could not completely suppress it.
Moreover, within a distance of 200 meters, even if the Japanese artillery fire is accurate, they generally do not dare to easily suppress the defenders' positions. If this barrage suppression method is used at this distance, once the artillery shell misses
Or if there is a little accident, the unlucky Japanese army will be the ones attacking. As for the accuracy of single-gun shooting, it will not play a decisive role in this situation.
According to the Japanese army's strict infantry attack tactics, precision strikes within a distance of 200 meters are handed over to the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun, Taisho 11-year-old infantry flat-firing cannon, Type 92 infantry cannon, or strengthened weapons.
This was accomplished with the flat-firing Type 41 mountain cannon. If these weapons could not exert their power, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the Japanese army's attack tactics.
What's more, he has heavy weapons and ready-made semi-permanent fortifications that can be used. Without having to worry about damage from Japanese artillery fire, he can effectively destroy the 92 infantry artillery that suppresses the backbone of the Japanese front-line infantry. In the 11th year of Taisho
Type flat-firing cannon, and Type 92 heavy machine gun.
Even the front-line infantry units still have trenches dug by the Japanese army that they can use. And although the Japanese army counterattacked faster and in a hurry, the troops also used the short free time between battles to dig some defensive trenches.
Artillery holes can effectively avoid damage from Japanese artillery fire. It is precisely because of these that Hai Jingqing dared to do this without the support of artillery fire.
However, as a veteran who had countless encounters with the Japanese army, Hai Jingqing knew the moral character of the Japanese army very well. In order to prevent the Japanese army from launching an indiscriminate bombardment when the Japanese army jumped over the wall in a hurry, he even asked the troops that if the Japanese army rushed within 50 meters,
We would rather retreat than engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese.
In fact, the battle progressed just as Hai Jingqing expected. The gap in infantry firepower made it possible for the Japanese army to launch an attack within two full hours. Not to mention the recapture of Kongjiawo Fort, they even lost the opponent's position within five hours.
It didn't even break through a distance of ten meters.
Various weapons that should have been aimed at destroying the enemy within 200 meters were either suppressed or destroyed by the enemy's weapons, and could not play the role they should have played in the Japanese infantry tactics.
.The Japanese troops could only bite the bullet and charge upward, but they were greeted by a dense hail of bullets.
According to the Japanese infantry attack tactics, within the distance from the 200-meter spread to the 100-meter full-speed charging line, the Japanese soldiers should be moving with precision shooting to do their best to kill and injure the Japanese soldiers defending the army. But this
One hundred meters, for Onimu Mayi's subordinates, has become a life-or-death line.
As long as you pause for a moment and prepare to shoot, you will be beaten into a colander by the dense rain of bullets from the defenders on the opposite side. Even if you can fire one shot, the opposite side will directly return ten shots to you. Although the shooting accuracy is not as abnormal as that of the Japanese army, this firepower
The density was unbearable for the Japanese army. This was simply equivalent to facing a light machine gun with a bolt-action rifle.
Even if the first shot of the enemy's counterattack is not accurate, the second shot, the third shot, or even the ten shots fired within one minute will make it impossible for you to dodge, or simply unable to dodge. Even if the Japanese army
No matter how sophisticated the soldiers' tactics are, no matter how fast their tactical movements are, can you be faster than a bullet? And what's aimed at you may not be a rifle.
Under the hail of bullets from the Anti-Japanese Alliance, Onimu Mayi was a complete infantry squadron. After repeated attacks several times, he was beaten to a semi-crimp by the opponent's intensive infantry firepower and a combination of long and near firepower. Then another squadron was replaced.
, the result remains the same after repeated impact.
Regardless of whether it was a frontal or side attack, the result was the same. Onimu Mayi's attack launched strictly in accordance with the requirements of Japanese infantry tactics, but not only failed to overwhelm the opponent's resistance. Not counting the armed foreigners he sent to lead the battle, only regular
The Japanese army was crippled by two and a half squadrons within an hour and a half.
After three hours of hard work, a considerable part of one-third of his troops became piles of mutilated corpses 200 meters away from the defenders' position. As for being unable to withdraw under the intensive infantry firepower of the defenders,
Come, just in front of the enemy position, there are more wounded people screaming loudly.
The Japanese counterattack force used in this battle, it can be said that the Japanese army's typical infantry attack tactics were of no use against the resistance alliance in front of them. Instead, they strictly followed the requirements of the tactical textbook to support the attack and launched within the specified distance.
Infantry fire support weapons, each one was shot down after being fired. It didn't even have time to deploy, and was destroyed on the way to the front.
Even if the desperate movement was in place, under the threat of the opponent's large-caliber machine guns and direct firepower, the infantry participating in the battle suppressed the firepower to support the attacking troops, and were either destroyed or destroyed from the initial 200 meters.
He was driven thousands of meters away. If this situation continued, the infantry support firepower he had survived would be almost useless even if it could barely fire.
For the Japanese heavy machine gun whose effective range can reach up to two thousand meters, a range of more than one thousand meters is not a problem. Whether it is a light machine gun or a heavy machine gun, there is no problem in reaching this range. But the accuracy of this firepower is and the requirements
It's completely two different things.
You can't expect a machine gunner to accurately hit enemy targets at a distance of more than a thousand meters. Moreover, if the bullet hits the defender's position at a distance of more than a thousand meters, I'm afraid its power will be reduced to dispensable.
The point. As for the grenade, it has no effect at all at this distance.
After this battle, Onimu Goichi clearly realized that the Japanese infantry attack tactics, which had been invincible on the battlefield of China Pass, had basically lost their effect when facing the Anti-Alliance army. Your infantry tactics
It's effective and the firepower allocation is reasonable, but what's the use if the opponent doesn't let you deploy it at all?
The two-hundred-meter infantry suppressive firepower deployment distance, under the opponent's more reasonable, lighter, and faster firepower configuration, is almost equivalent to taking the initiative to seek death. And the one-hundred-meter full-speed charge distance, in
Under the opponent's intensive infantry firepower, it is equivalent to dying.
You can't even achieve a deployment distance of 200 meters, let alone a charge distance of 100 meters? No matter how strong your combat effectiveness is, what's the use if you can't reach the deployment distance? After this battle, the infantry who once made the Japanese army proud
