Chapter 110 The Final Charge (I)

Biting his lips tightly, Hu Biao used this physical pain to suppress the intense heartache in his heart.

All this was because he soon saw a more important and urgent situation:
Under the continuous and crazy fire from the vehicle-mounted machine gun, all the Japanese soldiers who rushed up from the front of the outer defense position were knocked down one by one.

Those Japanese soldiers who did not rush forward and stayed in their positions to operate light and heavy machine guns and fire at the tanks were also killed in this unfair exchange of fire.

After all, the Japanese machine gun firepower could only produce dense sparks on the front armor of the tank.

On the contrary, the firing points they built with sandbags had no way to defend against bullets from vehicle-mounted machine guns.

As for the 37mm gun on the Type tank, why didn't it fire at the enemy? All I can say is that it did fire, but the effect is hard to describe, and the shell missed by an unknown distance.

The fundamental reason is that the tank artillery during World War II basically lacked equipment such as artillery dual-phase stabilizers, and could only ensure shooting accuracy when the guns were stationary or moving slowly.

In addition to the tanker from the Black Star crew, there was also a mortar operator who had just been promoted and was not good at direct-fire artillery.

So when Black Star started charging in his tank, the gunner named Wu Qiang kept firing, but none of his shots hit the target.

Feeling depressed, he simply stopped firing.

Fortunately, even without the fire support of tank guns, at this time, a hole has been successfully torn open in the Japanese outer defense positions.

There was only a distance of seven or eight meters, and the Type 89 tank driven by Black Star could rush through the newly torn hole and rush towards the Japanese heavy artillery position deeper in the area, thus achieving the most fundamental goal of this battle.

Under such stimulation, the remaining Japanese soldiers in the outer defense positions almost went crazy.

In order to prevent this tank from damaging the heavy artillery position, they rushed towards the gap regardless of everything.

So after seeing this scene, Hu Biao immediately realized something: after so many brothers died, this battle has finally reached the most critical moment.

The remaining people now have more important things to do, which is to follow up and guard that gap.

Or, in other words, they were guarding the rear of Black Star's tank, cutting off the last shred of possibility the Japanese could catch up and blow up the tank...

******
"Don't worry, don't worry about who dies, brothers, just follow me and keep charging."

While roaring, Hu Biao picked up a Type 38 rifle and no longer jogged like before, but ran towards the tank in front of him.

The remaining dozen or so Gui army brothers also realized after hearing this that now was the most critical moment of this operation.

However, their physical condition was actually quite bad, so they gritted their teeth, stumbled and ran, and began the final charge.

During this final charge, these Gui army brothers could be seen not far away.

There was often a brother who was not dead but whose internal organs were severely injured. He was struggling on the ground and trying to get up, but he often just lifted his body a little before falling to the ground again weakly.

He could only crawl on the ground using his hands and join the final charge in this way.

But they couldn't even stop for a moment to help their brothers.

They could only raise their heads and stare at the rear of the tank, not looking at those poor brothers, so as to suppress the urge to stop and help.

In this way, their originally staggering steps in the charge became faster and faster.

In the end, Hu Biao, who was in the lead, successfully caught up with the tank driven by Black Star.

In the first moment, he used the butt of the Type 38 rifle in his hand to smash the back of the tank with a series of "bang bang bang" sounds.

In this way, a message was sent to the Black Star in the tank:
Charge, charge at full speed, leave everything behind to us, and the Japanese heavy artillery will be left to you.

When Black Star heard the clang clang clang sounds coming from the rear of the tank, he instantly understood what the signals sent by the brothers outside meant.

Without hesitation, Black Star stepped on the tank's accelerator to the bottom, causing the engine to roar loudly and thick black smoke to come out of the exhaust pipe.

This 11.5-ton war machine suddenly increased its speed significantly. It entered its highest speed charge mode, charging towards the heavy artillery battlefield not far away...

After smashing the rear of the tank, Hu Biao held the Type 38 rifle level and fired a shot, killing a Japanese soldier rushing towards him from the left at a very close distance of less than five meters.

Then, without cocking the bolt, he pushed a new round in and continued firing.

Even at this time, there were still three Japanese soldiers rushing towards him, only twelve or thirteen steps away.

He still threw away the rifle in his hand, took two steps forward, and rushed towards a Type 92 heavy machine gun.

There was no other way! Although many devils had been killed or bombed in the previous battles, there were still as many as two or three hundred devils surviving on the outer defense lines.

They were rushing towards the gap frantically at this moment. Hu Biao didn't think that the remaining dozen brothers and the slow-firing rifles in their hands could hold them off for long.

The only option was to take a risk and snatch the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun.

Seeing Hu Biao's actions, the three Japanese soldiers reacted differently. Two of them continued to hold their bayonets and rushed towards him at an accelerated speed.

The remaining one stopped, raised his hand and fired a shot.

With the veteran Japanese soldier's marksmanship, there was almost no possibility of missing the target at such a close distance, so Hu Biao was shot without a doubt, and a ball of blood spurted out from his chest and abdomen.

The only thing to be thankful for was that Hu Biao did not die immediately after being shot, and he was shot when he rushed in front of the Type 92 heavy machine gun.

He stumbled, his hands still tightly gripping the handle of the heavy machine gun, with only one thought in his mind:
Fire! Fire and fire.

Stimulated by such an almost obsessive thought, Hu Biao didn't even feel the pain from the wounds on his chest and abdomen for a moment.

I just feel that the strength in my body seems to be constantly slipping away.

He pulled the bolt and fired wildly, firing a volley of brutal bullets, knocking the three devils to the ground in an instant.

When he knocked down the first Japanese soldier, the sharp bayonet in the other's hand was no more than 20 centimeters away from his nose.

If he had been even a little slower, he would have been stabbed in the face.

"Give me an assistant gunner to help hold the ammunition feed plate." Hu Biao shouted without turning his head in the interval of crazy firing.

After fighting more battles, he realized that heavy machine guns were not like what was shown in the movies, where one person just held the grip of the machine gun and pressed the trigger with his thumb to fire.

Because whether it was the National Army, the mainstream used Maxim and various imitation water-cooled heavy machine guns, or the Japanese's air-cooled Type 92 heavy machine gun.

If there is no one to hold the canvas ammunition belt or the copper feed plate when firing.

There is a high possibility that the bullet will jam when firing continuously.

Especially the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun, which has to be lubricated with oil on its bullets. If one person is operating it and firing, it will jam if one or two feed plates are not used up.

Under the current circumstances, if the bullet jams, it will be completely over.

Soon after, a cook from the Gui army with obvious bloodstains on the corners of his mouth came to Hu Biao and awkwardly acted as the assistant shooter.

In the following time, Hu Biao fell into a state of frantic firing and re-firing.

He wanted to fire more bullets and kill more Japanese before all his strength was completely drained away by the wounds in his chest and abdomen.

As for whether Black Star could blow up the Japanese heavy artillery, he had no control over it and no way to control it.

He had already done what he could to destroy the enemy's heavy artillery positions this time. The rest would be handed over to Black Star, that big idiot from Central Plains Province...
