Their marksmanship was precise and they were fed thousands of bullets, which at this time provided help in harvesting the lives of the Eighth Route Army soldiers.
In the frontal position, the veterans on the position lowered their heads and shot at the Japanese troops with their rifles. Reduce the exposed area of ??their heads as much as possible.
But even so, due to the intensive firepower of the Japanese army, many of them had their heads blown off by heavy machine gun bullets. Although the steel helmets buckled on their heads can withstand some shrapnel and less powerful stray bullets, they are still too fragile to face the heavy machine gun bullets fired at them.
The white snow surface was already stained red with blood in just a short time. Looking from the sky, you can clearly see that on the pure white land, there are patches of red blood, as if there is a huge brush with red blood stuck on it, and then it is swiped on the land. Splash ink.
But what was finally drawn was not a landscape painting with profound artistic conception, but a hell-like Shura battlefield.
The corpses were piled up in the position in front of Xiongfeng Ridge. The Japanese army took over the cover of these corpses and continued to cover forward. Then they turned into new corpses and stacked them with the corpses in front.
The situation on the top of the slope was equally tragic. The health worker was crawling in the snow, and then said loudly: "Is anyone still breathing?"
When they saw the wounded soldiers still breathing through the smoke, they hurriedly crawled over and began to bandage those soldiers.
But in many cases, the soldier has already died before the health worker has finished bandaging the wounded soldier.
Some new health workers could not help crying because of such a scene, and then continued to crawl forward with tears on their faces, searching for the next wounded soldier.
"Flame thrower!!!" Li Yunlong shouted as he looked at the little Japs getting closer and closer.
"Boom!!!" The moment the flamethrower's nozzle poked out of the shooting hole, the hot flames were like a fire dragon, shooting out directly from inside, turning the Japanese soldiers in the front row into fire man.
Those Japanese soldiers were screaming and rolling on the snow, rolling down from the top of the slope like fireballs. Some unlucky Japanese soldiers were also affected. The cotton inside their winter clothes was ignited, and they were turned into burning men and screamed in agony.
On the flank positions, the battle was equally fierce.
Because the troops are very sufficient, the Japanese army has no so-called feint attack and main attack direction. They have invested a huge amount of troops in flank attacks and frontal attacks.
So on the side battlefield, their impact on the Second Guard Regiment and the 189th Regiment was also very violent.
It¡¯s just that they didn¡¯t expect that compared to the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment on the front, these two regiments of the Fourth Division had more powerful firepower. In terms of heavy machine guns alone, they are equipped with many Gatling heavy machine guns with terrible rates of fire and some heavy machine guns developed in later generations.
The firepower of these machine guns is very fierce. For example, the 12.7 mm large-caliber heavy machine gun they are equipped with is like a machine gun when it fires at the Japanese army.
The 12.7 mm powerful heavy machine gun bullets were like artillery shells at this time. When they hit the Japanese soldier's body, half of his body was directly knocked out. When it hits the ground, it directly stirs up large amounts of snow foam and mud, which greatly affects the sight of the Japanese troops advancing below.
The suppressive ability of this large-caliber heavy machine gun is really powerful. Although the Japanese soldiers are fierce, their flesh and blood bodies are like paper in front of such powerful bullets. The horrific scene of their bodies being directly beaten into pieces greatly shocked the Japanese soldiers next to them.
As for the Gatling heavy machine gun, when it fires bullets, it makes a sound like a chainsaw, just like the chant of death. Dense bullets were sprayed at the Japanese army amidst such noise, covering a large area in the blink of an eye.
Many Japanese soldiers often had more than a dozen bullet holes in their bodies when they fell under such a dense jet of bullets. Their entire bodies had been completely smashed, and there wasn't even a single intact organ in their bodies.
In front of the Xiongfeng Ridge position, a large number of Japanese corpses were piled up rapidly.
Suematsu Shigeshi, the commander of the 114th Division, looked at this scene with a very solemn expression on his face.
He knew that the enemy on the opposite side should not be underestimated, but he did not expect that the firepower of this group of enemies would be so fierce. In terms of infantry firepower alone, the enemy on the opposite side was even stronger than them.
The most important thing is that he noticed that on the side, the enemy was equipped with some very powerful weapons. Those heavy machine guns with muzzles like honeycombs, he knew they were Gatling heavy machine guns, but he didn't know which Gatling heavy machine gun could have such a fierce rate of fire.
As for those large-caliber heavy machine guns that could shatter people with one bullet, Suematsu Shigeshi couldn't help but wonder whether the enemy had used cannons removed from the aircraft in this battle.
After this charge lasted for a full hour, the spirit of the Japanese troops fighting in the front was on the verge of collapse.
All their attacks were ineffective, and the enemy's position was as if it were made of steel. Several times they managed to rush to the enemy's position, but they were killed by those people with bayonets.
Those Eighth Route Army soldiers were also furious, and some even jumped directly into their crowd holding explosive bags. The dozen or so soldiers they rushed towards didn't even have to resist for ten seconds before they all turned into cold corpses.
"Let them withdraw." Shigeshi Suematsu, commander of the Japanese 114th Division, sighed.
He knew in his heart that if the soldiers charged at this time, they would be killed in the past, but there would be no way to make substantial progress in the attack.
The tenacity, firepower, equipment, and combat literacy of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army and the Fourth Division all exceeded Suematsu Shigeshi's expectations.
Saburo Isoda said: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, why not try it again? Withdrawing the first charge like this will have a great impact on subsequent morale."
"If we try again, there will be no progress. The enemy's firepower is fierce enough, and the organization and discipline are very strong. Their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of the Chinese troops we have come into contact with before." Suematsu Shigeshi said, "And the enemy is on the opposite side. The commander is also very strategic and a respectable opponent. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
