    But the People¡¯s Army doesn¡¯t play by common sense.  Just when Gumi, who was watching the battle, thought that the next step was a show of well-trained Japanese soldiers showing off their muscles, something strange happened.

    When the two sides were approaching, preparing for hand-to-hand combat, and were about to make contact but had not yet made contact, the People's Army in the front row suddenly stood still under the order of an officer, and then fired a volley of "pop bang bang".

    Because this salvo was at a close range and the targets were densely packed, the Japanese army was fully prepared for melee combat in the early stages and was completely unprepared, and was very lethal.

    "It's like putting a gun into the belly of the Japanese army and firing it. The accuracy of this row of guns is also extremely high, and there is basically no need to aim."  After a burst of smoke, at least fifty Japanese soldiers were shot dead on the spot, and a few unlucky People's Army soldiers were slightly deflected, but the Japanese soldiers who were hit were also seriously injured.

    Afterwards, the people's officers and soldiers jumped up, and the real hand-to-hand combat began.

    This is purely a premeditated and standard tactic.  Half of the team of more than a hundred people was wiped out in one go, and the number of people was reduced. Moreover, this round of gunfire completely stunned the Japanese army: Why didn't the Chinese army play their cards according to common sense?

    When Gumi saw this, he also yelled: "Shameless Chinaman! This is an insult to the spirit of the warrior!"

    "It's a pity that company commander Hou Wanshan on the opposite side can't hear it - this platoon leader who once participated in the death squads without fear of his own life but worried about the lives of his wife and children has now been promoted to company commander.  At this time, there was no trace of worry on his face, and life and death had long been ignored.

    As for the so-called violation of "rules" that the Japanese were annoyed about, Captain Hou did not feel the slightest bit guilty.  You must abide by your rules. Our rule is that if you can save one soldier from death, you will never spare bullets. This is the young commander's rule many years ago.

    Yes, while Zhang Hanqing valued the morale of soldiers, he did not artificially make the role of spiritual power absolute.  China's war has traditionally ignored the death of officers and soldiers. Many film and television works about the military often have the rhetoric "I don't care about the number of casualties, I just want xx", but it has been praised by many people.

    But behind these casualty figures are living lives and broken families.  Although there are certain restrictions and reasons, Zhang Hanqing does not want to highlight the tragedy of the hero too much.

    Being able to kill as few people as possible, even one, is worth the effort. This view was reflected after the defeat of the Zhili clan - in order to reduce internal fighting as much as possible, he put his one-sided military advantage to take the initiative and  This is the trend of thought when various factions talk about peaceful nation-building.

    In addition, his people-oriented thinking is also reflected in the equipment of the People's Army.

    In such a huge China, 36 armies seemed very large at first, but with less than two million troops and the fact that the country had not been liberated, it was completely insufficient.  At that time, Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Zuoxiang, Wu Junsheng and other veterans of the army, as well as his team members such as Jiang Baili, Han Linchun and Guo Songling, all believed that the army should be greatly expanded. They believed that to maintain China's political power, the army must reach at least 4 million!

    But China¡¯s economic conditions are there.  With limited national defense funds, if we support so many troops, the result will be that the number of the People's Army will expand, but the update of equipment will be slow.  Its performance in the war must be: the People's Army uses flesh and blood to open a bloody road!  However, the Chinese war tradition does not care about these, the result is the most important.

    Zhang Hanqing directly rejected the theory of quantity victory, and instead chose to prioritize improving the quality of equipment.

    Now, we can see that the People's Army's firepower configuration is far superior to that of the Japanese army, and the development of other arms and services is also advancing by leaps and bounds, Zhang Hanqing is indispensable.  Of course, one advantage of this is that the quality of the soldiers is relatively high, and each team is truly armed, rather than just making up numbers.

    At the same time, the concept of Chinese military science was gradually changed by Zhang Hanqing: war is an art and the worst step in politics, and it itself breaks political rules.  Therefore, as long as it is a war, it does not matter if it is upright, as long as the loss is minimized, as long as victory is achieved.

    Therefore, China¡¯s military doctrine praises the behavior of cold shots before bayonets.

    It is not surprising that there was a conspiracy that made the Japanese army "shameless".  Although Watanabe was angered, his companions who had been so energetic just now suddenly fell in large numbers under the guns of the People's Army, which dealt a huge blow to the morale of the Japanese army.

    More importantly, the Japanese army did not know whether bullets would come out of the guns of the People's Army on the opposite side, so their strides forward became cautious, concentrating on making their opponents look bad, and inevitably watching with distraction.  The muzzle of the People's Army.

    In this way, this row of guns has a great effect: it not only inspires one's own fighting spirit, but also frightens the enemy's troops, and also disrupts the enemy's formation.  As the sound of gunfire disappeared, the people's officers and soldiers jumped up like tigers and wolves and charged towards the victims.The enemy rushed forward fiercely.

    There is no one-to-one relationship, it is many-to-one relationship.

    As a result of a row of guns, the two vanguard units, which were originally evenly matched, tipped in favor of the People's Army.  The Japanese army, which had lost its spirit, faced the battle in a panic. It not only had to face numerous "challengers", but also had to be wary of "cold shots" that appeared at any time. The Japanese army struggled hard with its bayonets.

    What they don¡¯t know is that the People¡¯s Army only stipulates that one row of guns should be fired before bayonets are used.  Because by coincidence, Japan is not the only one who discovered that shooting in hand-to-hand combat outweighs the gains and losses. The Chinese army also discovered this problem.

    The Chinese army does not have a doctrine that requires the removal of bullets in hand-to-hand combat. However, the Northwest Army troops widely use machetes in hand-to-hand combat. In fact, they also voluntarily gave up the shooting tactic.  Because it is impossible to wield a machete in one hand and shoot a rifle in the other.  Of course, this was also because the troops from the Northwest Army had unique sword skills and were the only Chinese troops at that time that could gain the upper hand over the Japanese in hand-to-hand combat.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Including the Eighth Route Army, which can touch bayonets in official history, assassination technology and training were far inferior to the Japanese army in the early stages of World War II.

    Therefore, even if it is easy to accidentally injure one of its own people, the People's Army must retain the tactic of shooting during combat in order to achieve the goal of "several lives in exchange for one of his own."  Because the Anti-Japanese War movies that Zhang Hanqing had watched in his previous life, including historical introductions, objectively demonstrated that the Japanese army had extremely high tactical literacy. In order not to suffer a loss or suffer less loss, he first took advantage of the fact that he had a gun and killed him a few times to gain a head start.  , this is a darker idea.

    Of course, in the subsequent propaganda, he still said righteously: "War is war. Why should the Chinese army follow the rules of the Japanese army? If we follow the spirit of Bushido, Japan should not launch a war. Let us use sports competitions to determine the winner!"

    Originally, the Chinese were not weaker than the Japanese in terms of physique, but now their morale is ebbing and flowing, and there are so many people, how can they not win?  In this way, a squadron was reimbursed.

    Watanabe is worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield. After thinking about it for a moment, he realized that the People's Army only relied on the first round of gunfire to seize the opportunity, because in the subsequent assassination, no gunshot was fired.

    In this case, we must seize the time to fight with them closely. Otherwise, if the People's Army comes up with another echelon, it will inevitably repeat the same tactics, and the losses will be somewhat serious.  And if it is posted quickly, the enemy and ourselves will be mixed, and it will be difficult for the People's Army to have a chance to make a cold shot.

    So the other two squadrons swarmed up and quickly became entangled with Hou Wanshan's company.

    His decision cannot be said to be wrong, but in a complicated battlefield, just because he can see through this does not mean that other Japanese soldiers can too.  Because it only takes a short time to go from cold shooting to hand-to-hand combat, at least many Japanese soldiers in the next two squadrons do not have this awareness.  There was already a fight in front, and those behind were rushing forward with their guns | butts in hand.

    Hou Wanshan would not be so stupid as to use the power of Lu Jian to hit the opponent's strong bow.  A squadron of the Japanese army has been successfully eliminated. It was all a labor of strength, and the officers and soldiers were exhausted.  If we don't take a break, many of our friends who have won among the dead bodies will lose their lives in a meaningless manner - these officers and soldiers who have experienced actual combat are the soul of the army, and they will not be scattered so easily.

    While he ordered a retreat, he stepped out of a place to allow the corresponding troops to catch up.

    "Don't worry, the Japanese army still has a pot of delicious food behind.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The ferocious face of Japan can be seen, and the crowd is full of people.  The People's Army is waiting for this opportunity.

    Another group of soldiers with guns appeared and fired without saying a word.  These soldiers were "educated" and shot each other in the thigh first before the two sides could confront each other.

    The advantage of this is: due to the small distance, the enemy's bayonet cannot attack yet; the bullet penetrates the opponent's thigh and then burrows into the ground, so there is no need to worry about accidental injury.  The most important thing is that bayonet fighting is a difficult "sport" that requires the cooperation of the whole body. If a Japanese soldier is shot in the thigh and cannot move smoothly, he will basically be at the mercy of others.

    Because the guns of this era were of poor quality and the projectiles had low initial velocity, they often stayed in the opponent's body after being hit at close range.  Although hitting the upper body is good, it is extremely difficult for bullets to penetrate; hitting the legs, on the other hand, is relatively easier to penetrate, and second, if the legs are weak in the subsequent hand-to-hand combat, you will know.

    So it creates the paradox that hitting non-vital parts is more lethal than vital parts, but this is real.

    What's more interesting is that because the distance is too close, some bullets will "ricochet" after penetrating the bodies of Japanese soldiers. Once friendly troops are hit, although there is rarely a danger of life, they are somewhat destructive, at least  There will be some obstacles when it¡¯s time to push hard.

    Seeing that the second squadron was about to be beaten to pieces again made this group of Japanese soldiers fearful and made Lieutenant Colonel Watanabe worried.  If we can't really press closely, we won't be able to protect the People's Army, and what tricks will it come up with?  Unable to restrain his anxiety, he waved his command knife and rushed forward in person.

    With Mr. Lieutenant Colonel as an example, the morale of the Japanese army was revived.  The superiors do not care about their lives, but the inferiors have no doubts?

    "However, it has always been a taboo in the military for a commander to rush to the front line.  Although it can boost morale, it is inevitable that if the commander is killed in battle, it will have a huge impact on the entire army.  Snipers who specialize in finding and destroying important enemy targets such as commanders have not yet appeared on the stage, but the "decapitation war" idea of ??"shooting the man first, shooting the horse, and capturing the thief first" has a history of thousands of years in China.
