    Japanese special shooters vs. Chinese snipers. From a quantitative point of view, the Japanese special shooters have an advantage. The weapons and equipment of both sides are almost the same. Whether it is the Type 97 sniper rifle used by the Chinese snipers or the 38-type cover used by the Japanese special shooters.  Its core is still the Type 38 rifle, but the former is equipped with a 2.5x scope.

    With almost the same external conditions, which side has stronger combat effectiveness depends on the quality of both sides, but it is a pity that in this regard, these quasi-snipers of the 7th Division are indeed no match for the elite Japanese troops.

    You must know that these elite soldiers of the Japanese army are veterans with at least three years of military service, and the Japanese army has been using the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance to train troops in recent years, and has also been actively preparing for war against the Soviet Union. Therefore, whether from the perspective of officers or soldiers, other  The overall quality is very high.

    This is also the reason why the Japanese army has repeatedly attacked cities and plundered territory since the launch of the war, and the Chinese army was defeated and abandoned!

    In this duel three hundred meters away, the Duba Brigade was undoubtedly at a disadvantage. More than a dozen snipers were killed on the position by special Japanese shooters from a long distance, causing considerable losses.

    But soon the Japanese charging troops advanced to a distance of two hundred meters in front of the position, and this distance was the effective range of ordinary soldiers. The real main showdown was about to take place.

    However, what the Japanese army did not expect was that the defenders did not open fire immediately, but waited until they advanced to a distance of 150 meters in front of the position before opening fire!

    With the order from the frontline garrison commander, the frontline garrison opened fire, all kinds of weapons and equipment fired at the same time, and dense bullets shrouded the little Japs more than a hundred meters away.

    And the little Japs were unequivocal. When they heard the sound of gunshots, it was almost a natural reaction of the body. All the Japs soldiers immediately stopped and the whole army lay on the ground to fight back.

    To be honest, the little devil¡¯s reaction was indeed surprising. This level was definitely much better than the 7th Regiment we encountered in Daishan Town before. Even Gao Hu, who was commanding the operations from the rear, was sincerely impressed.

    But Gao Hu was not discouraged. Although the shooting effect in the first round was not good, it did not mean that Gao Hu had nothing to do.

    If shooting doesn¡¯t work, then use artillery fire. The artillery of the defenders hasn¡¯t fired yet today, so it¡¯s time to use these Japanese soldiers to open fire!

    In yesterday¡¯s battle, the artillery battalion assigned to Gao Hu¡¯s headquarters was almost completely destroyed by the Japanese army. In the end, only two mountain artillery were withdrawn to Chihe Town, but the defenders had many mortars.

    Especially after Gao Hu reported the situation to the brigade headquarters, Zhang Tengjiao, the brigade commander, directly ordered people to send them 12 small-caliber mortars overnight, which were just used to hit the Japanese soldiers in front of them.

    Of course, since there are no long-range mountain artillery and field artillery, the defenders' artillery cannot fire all the time. In order to prevent the Japanese from retaliating with artillery, Gao Hu ordered the artillery to move positions immediately after firing 10 rapid rounds.

    Following Gao Hu¡¯s order, the defenders¡¯ artillery, which had been holding back, quickly removed its disguise and began shelling the front line!

    "Boom boom boom"

    More than a dozen mortars fired at the same time, and each artillery fired ten shells in a short period of time. You can imagine how dense the shelling was.

    For the little Japs at the frontier, one hundred and dozens of artillery shells fell on their heads in less than two minutes. Although they were all small-caliber mortar shells, the overall power was still terrifying.

    The main reason is that the Japs troops at the front are relatively concentrated. Seven to eight hundred people are gathered in an area less than two hundred meters long and wide. If they are suddenly bombarded, the losses will naturally not be small.

    In fact, the shelling by the defenders did cause heavy losses to the Yamamoto Battalion. In addition to hundreds of people being killed in the shelling, more than 200 people in the Yamamoto Battalion were injured of varying degrees of severity. Only 400 were able to fight.  Multiple people.

    Even so, the Japanese army still did not retreat and continued to attack under the orders of Major Yamamoto.

    In fact, the Japanese army had nothing to do. Unlike the defenders, both Fujii Weiyoshi and Yamamoto Tsuna had orders to defeat the defenders in front as soon as possible, occupy the town in front, and open the road to Bengbu.

    Especially when the division commander was about to arrive at the front line, everyone had no way out, so the Japanese army adopted a desperate strategy from the beginning.

    You must know that the Japanese army is not stupid, and this type of group charge at the brigade level is not often used, otherwise the Japanese army will be completely lost after a few battles.

    As the Japanese army advanced desperately, the distance between the two sides quickly shortened. Soon the little Japanese rushed to a distance of less than 100 meters in front of the defenders' position. This distance was already very dangerous for the defenders.  For the Japanese army, it is equivalent to victory.??.

    Seeing that Yamamoto's battalion was about to advance to a distance of less than a hundred meters from the defenders' position, Colonel Fuji and others who were watching the battle from behind couldn't help but feel a little excited. They were less than a hundred meters away. If they charged quickly, they could rush into the opponent in less than a minute.  of trenches.

    Once you rush in, it becomes a close combat. With the imperial army's close combat capabilities, it is easy to defeat the opponent.

    However, seeing that the Yamamoto Battalion had less than 300 men left at this time, Colonel Fuji waved his hand, and the strength of two more squadrons was transferred up.

    Colonel Fuji has very rich combat experience. He knows that this is the most critical time. He must not hesitate, let alone interrupt the attack. If the reinforcements are timely, the attack will be considered complete.

    However, just as the reinforcements rushed up in a hurry, they heard another dull shelling sound from behind the defenders' position, and then saw dense artillery shells falling from the sky again, falling completely on the heads of the Japanese reinforcements, killing the two  An infantry squadron was blown to pieces.

    This scene made Colonel Fuji very angry, and he immediately ordered the artillery to counterattack immediately. The defenders' artillery must be suppressed!

    After receiving the order, the Japanese artillery immediately began to calculate the opponent's position based on the ballistic trajectories of the defenders' artillery, and then began to counterattack.

    It¡¯s a pity that although the calculations of the Japanese artillery were relatively accurate, the defenders did not give them this opportunity. Before the Japanese artillery bombardment, the defenders¡¯ artillery had already moved their positions. The kid¡¯s artillery bombardment was obviously a waste of ammunition.

    Although the reinforcements failed to arrive in time, due to the artillery counterattack, the defenders' artillery was suppressed, so the Yamamoto Battalion on the front line could continue to advance. After paying a heavy casualty, the Yamamoto Battalion had already rushed to the defenders' position.  Fifty meters away.

    It was about to rush into the defender's position, but Yamamoto Tsuna, who had rich combat experience, did not immediately order the troops to rush forward. Instead, he immediately ordered people to throw more than a dozen melon-style grenades into the open space in front of the defender's position!

    As the grenade exploded at the defender's forward position, several dull explosions were heard on the ground, and several large pits with a diameter of more than one meter and a depth of half a meter even appeared.

    Seeing this scene, Major Yamamoto's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. Just as he expected, the defenders actually arranged a minefield in front of the position, and it looked very dense.

    It is actually not common for defenders to arrange minefields in front of their positions, because once a mine is planted, it will explode regardless of whether you are the defender or the attacking party.

    Once the minefield is laid, the defenders can only stick to their position and directly lose the possibility of counterattack, because the minefield directly traps them. If they do not want to defend their position, generally speaking, they will not  Minefields are laid out on the front line.

    But on the other hand, once the defenders set up a minefield, the attacking party will be in big trouble. If they want to break into the defenders' position, the minefield will be an insurmountable chasm.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
