Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 60: The fierce battle in Zhuanshui Village, the Japanese army is in a dilemma

The sound of the engine came.

After confirming that the Japanese tanks were wheeled armored vehicles.

The soldiers also began to think about this.

For this type of anti-armor warfare.

It can be regarded as part of the daily training of the 358th Regiment.

This thing has a thin skin and a big filling.

In close combat, Molotov cocktails and cluster grenades can restrict their movements and destroy them.

Compared with the Japanese tanks, they are not a big threat.

The Japanese troops, who had been fighting continuously for a long time, were obviously in a state of high tension.

He almost never put down his rifle.

They looked around vigilantly, and any extra noise would attract their attention.

Responsible for commanding the force.

He is the deputy commander of the infantry regiment, Major Kamimura.

Walking among a group of infantrymen.

As an outstanding graduate who just graduated from the Japanese Army University.

Kamimura was also deeply influenced by Germany's total war theory.

They showed great contempt for the Republic of China’s army at that time.

Not to mention the Eighth Route Army troops who couldn't even get all the uniforms.

even if.

At this time, he had been harassed for a day and a night by the Eighth Route Army troops, whom he despised.

Kamimura did not take the possible appearance of enemy forces seriously.

As the Japanese scouts continued to report, the village fell into silence.

Just as Kamimura was about to lead a large force through.

"Bang~!"

There was a gunshot.

The bullet spun at high speed and pierced through the chest of the Japanese soldier.

"Looks like a private first class"

"Help me remember that I still have to report to the company commander after the battle."

After a gunshot, the village fell silent again.

Kamimura's anger was instantly ignited.

It's the same tactic again.

Suddenly there was a shot, and then he disappeared without a trace.

After being tortured in this way for a day and a night, Kamimura could no longer control his anger.

"Give me the assault!"

A Japanese army squad rushed into Zhuanshui Village in the direction of the gunfire.

As soon as they kicked open the gate, the elite Japanese soldiers found the grenade hidden above the door edge.

"Danger!"

The Japanese soldiers scattered in an instant and fell to the ground.

There was a boom.

The grenade exploded, but did not cause any casualties among the Japanese.

But it also made the Japanese devils more cautious in their search.

"The grenades are ready. Wen Lei will throw them in two to three seconds."

An old squad leader moved his ears slightly, and then began to command the four soldiers behind him.

"Ready~!"

The soldiers unscrewed the dust covers and pulled the fuses in their hands.

"Throw!"

Four grenades, four directions.

Thrown into a courtyard less than forty meters away.

The three Japanese soldiers who entered the yard to search had no way to escape and could only lie down on the spot.

Explosions continued to sound outside the village.

In less than three minutes, more than ten people were killed or injured.

Three of the Japanese soldiers were killed on the spot by bullets that came from nowhere.

Kamimura immediately turned around and waved again.

More than a hundred Japanese soldiers rushed out of the marching team again.

They formed a combat search formation and quickly climbed up the mountainside along both sides of Zhuanshui Village, preparing to encircle it.

When they actually take action.

Only then did they realize that Zhuanshui Village was much larger than they had imagined.

A village in Shanxi under the rule of Yan Laoxi that has access to "roads".

There are at least hundreds of households.

There is even a village primary school in Zhuanshui Village.

Previously, it was the headquarters of the 386th Brigade, but now it is the headquarters of the rd Battalion.

In order to fight this battle well.

Luo Weiguo set up his command center in the village.

Not only supervise and command the front line.

Even when necessary, he would personally fight on the front line.

A general should be prepared to die, and a soldier should not think of living in fear.

When the frontline soldiers learned that the chief officer was in the village, they shared weal and woe and naturally burst out with powerful fighting power.

The Japanese invaders on both sides are climbing the slope.

The grenades were thrown down under the command of their respective company commanders.

Boom, boom!
Explosions continued.

Some Japanese soldiers were blown down the hillside like gourds by the sudden grenade.

"idiot!"

"shooting!"

"Da da da!"

The light machine guns immediately launched bursts of suppression fire.

The commanding heights on both wings of the water side are not high enough to overlook the entire highway.

But there is no problem in assisting the defense of Zhuanshu Village.

After checking the battle map, Kamimura quickly made relevant deployments.

"Use the 1st and 3rd Infantry Squadrons to attack the hill on the left wing under the cover of artillery."

The unnamed hill on the left wing is not as steep as the right wing of Zhuanshui Village.

And the height is only about one hundred meters, and it can overlook the Zhuanshui Village.

If a machine gun could be mounted on it, it would be enough to provide fire support to any place in the village.

But again, it was the soldiers from the third battalion who first occupied the high ground.

Located on a high ground, we have the advantage of terrain.

They also have a certain advantage in terms of firepower of light weapons.

For example, the two Czech light machine guns deployed on high ground have a much faster firing rate than the ordinary Czech type.

Compared with it, the Japanese Type 99 light machine gun is even weaker.

However, as the elite Independent Mixed Brigade 1, it uses relatively more advanced hand-held machine guns.

The Japanese army called it the Type 96 light machine gun.

The rifle is a Japanese imitation of the Czechoslovakian ZB26 light machine gun.

An attempt was made to improve the shortcomings of the Czech-style rifle, while taking into account the advantages of the Type 99 rifle.

Just like when a donkey and a horse mate, a new species called a mule is produced.

Compared with the Type 99 light machine gun, this type of machine gun is more convenient to change bullets.

Compared with the anti-human ergonomic design of the Type 99 rifle.

The Type 96 light machine gun is obviously more user-friendly... yes, just a little.

The designer of the Cerebral Palsy even added a bayonet slot to the front of the gun.

It doesn't matter if the magazine is damaged or even the barrel cannot be replaced.

According to this group of idiots' design ideas, you can also hold the handlebars and charge "onboard".
"Da da da~!"

"Da da!"

The shortcoming of the Czech-style rifle made in Jin compared to the crooked-handle rifle is the sustainability of firepower.

The advantage is naturally the faster rate of fire.

It uses 6.5mm caliber ammunition.

The power is almost the same, and it is more suitable for use by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army because the caliber of the bullets is universal and it is easier to replenish ammunition.

I think the reason why Yan Laoxi chose the 6.5mm caliber bullet was simply because he thought the bullet caliber was small.

Less copper resources will be used.
The quality of Shanxi's copper mines is not high, and copper mainly relies on imports.

With Yan Laoxi's frugal nature, every expense would naturally be compressed to the extreme.

He is a master of farming.

Of course, every cause has its effect.

This also laid the groundwork for Chiang Kai-shek to provide 7.92 Mauser bullets later, but the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was unable to use them.

The Japanese army's Type 99 light machine guns and grenade launchers quickly retaliated.

The soldiers of the third battalion had never fought against the Japanese invaders before.

But we also learned some experience in fighting the Japanese invaders.

After the light machine gun fires a round, it quickly changes its firing position.

For a time, the Japanese invaders were beaten terribly.

Kamimura put down the binoculars in his hand and frowned.

He knew that he would be facing a real opponent in this battle.

These soldiers were all wearing the uniforms of the Jinsui Army, had superb combat skills, had echeloned firepower configurations, and deployed side firepower.

It is definitely not comparable to the Eighth Route Army troops that had fought before.

This top student who graduated from the Japanese Army University began to take his opponent seriously.
