Chapter 147 The situation rises, the mountains and rivers move 33

The squad leader has a small position, but as a soldier, the squad leader has a great role in the army. Li Qinglin has not been a squad leader for a long time, unlike other squad leaders. He never establishes his authority by beating and scolding soldiers, so he is very popular with soldiers. In addition, the help of two iron players in the squad, Xiao Liuzi and Li Gousheng, Li Qinglin is now speaking in the squad like an imperial edict.

As soon as Li Qinglin said, everyone in the class left their jobs and ran to the bunker that had collapsed halfway to flip through things. After a while, they all returned with a full load.

Li Qinglin took a tin can and opened the can with a bayonet. The beef inside was exposed, and the soldiers followed suit, and the cans were opened one by one.

The Japanese taste is light, and the canned beef tastes less delicious than the Chinese. After eating the canned food, Xiao Liuzi smeared his greasy mouth and said, "This Japanese guy doesn't hire a good chef. If you don't use such good beef for braised, you're just a little bit. It's really ruined such good beef."

Li Qinglin patted his head and smiled, "You really picked up the chopsticks and ate meat, put down the chopsticks and cursed! You don't look at other classes, they are eating potatoes and leveraging corn. Let's look at our class. Now you can eat beef with plenty, so you'll be content!"

After dinner, Li Qinglin greeted, "I have eaten this meat and I have to do my job well! According to the old rules, the veterans will bring one new recruit and teach our tactics to the new brothers. I think the war will begin soon. Now prepare more and there will be fewer casualties at that time."

Generally, the so-called preparation can only be regarded as the pre-war veterans' teaching of recruits, and the most important thing is to teach the recruits' battlefield experience. Li Qinglin's squad's casualty rate has always been the lowest infantry squad in the battalion, because of the teaching of this kind of battlefield experience. The veterans fought several battles with Li Qinglin, and the facts proved that Li Qinglin's approach was absolutely correct. They all consciously led the recruits to train.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the company commander came back from the regiment headquarters. As soon as the company commander came back, he convened the platoon leader and squad leader for a meeting. It turned out that the division decided to take advantage of the first victory of the Second Battalion. The whole division made a concerted effort to launch a major attack on Qingshuijian in the afternoon.

Qingshuijian is a commanding height, and the Japanese frontal position is quite wide. In the past, the 85th Division also launched an attack on Qingshuijian, but because of the barrier of this small position, it cannot launch a full-line attack every time. Now that the Second Battalion has seized this small position, the effect is immediately revealed. Although Japanese artillery fired shells from time to time on Qingshuijian, the mobilization of the 10th Division and the transportation of ammunition and medicine supplies no longer need to prevent the firepower on the flanks, and they can arrange troops calmly.

All preparations have been done, and the troops of the 10th Division have entered the predetermined position. Li Qinglin and the others are waiting for the scheduled time to immediately launch a full-scale attack on Qingshuijian's Japanese positions.

The sky was gloomy and a little windy, as if it was about to rain. Such weather was very beneficial to the national army, because the Japanese planes could not fly to the battlefield to bomb, and because of the wind, the Japanese gas bombs could not have any effect.

At 3:00 pm, the general attack of the 10th Division began!

In the pure infantry battle, artillery was called the king of the battlefield. Its powerful and continuous firepower was incomparable to other weapons. The front-line officers and soldiers of the 85th Division suffered heavy casualties, but their artillery was basically well preserved. When the 10th Division decided to attack, it asked the army to leave the artillery of the 85th Division on the battlefield.

All 20 75mm howitzers of the 85th Division and the 10th Division opened fire, and they carried out full coverage bombing at the Japanese positions on Qingshuijian.

Taking advantage of the fierce artillery fire, the officers and soldiers of the 10th Division rushed towards Qingshuijian. The war defense artillery was constantly pushed forward, and the battalion's 82mm mortar also followed the infantry into the best shooting position.

Since the outbreak of the full-scale war of resistance, basically the Japanese firepower suppressed the national army. The commanders of the national army also cherished heavy weapons such as artillery, and they were reluctant to take them out until the last moment. This time, Li Mo'an was abnormal and took out all the heavy weapons in the first round of attack, which was far beyond the expectations of the Japanese commander.

There is one characteristic of the national army fighting, that is, the momentum of fighting. The artillery fire of the national army completely suppressed the Japanese firepower. The officers and soldiers of the 10th Division were screaming. When the bombing of the howitzer of the national army had not stopped, they had already rushed to the front line of the Japanese army.

As soon as the howitzer fire stopped, the Japanese army who were lying in the trenches to avoid shells was immediately resurrected. They immediately lay in the trenches and began to shoot at the attacking Chinese army. The 192 infantry artillery that had been suppressed just now also began to fight back. The Japanese grenade launchers also began to play a role, and the officers and soldiers who rushed in front fell in rows.

Li Qinglin's squad was divided into three groups as always. Under the leadership of the veterans, the new recruits followed suit and successfully arrived 200 meters away from the enemy.

Due to training and soldiers' quality, the National Army has never had a good cooperative operation in infantry and artillery. This time, because the battalion's mortar and war defense artillery followed, infantry and artillery coordination actually followed. After howitzers bombed, the super-caliber grenades of mortar and war defense artillery played a role in the second wave of firepower, and the Japanese firepower was suppressed again.

The Japanese army's positions were also divided into three fronts, with the forefront at the foot of the mountain, and trenches were also built on the hillside and on the top of the mountain, as the second and third-tier positions.

Because of the shooting provided by the 85th Division, the artillery soldiers of the Kuomintang did not even conduct test firing and directly attacked the Japanese positions. The artillery fire of the 10th Division was quite sudden, and the firepower points that the Japanese army had exposed were almost half removed, so the firepower support provided by the Japanese second-line and third-line positions was quite limited.

On the battlefield, weapons are not a decisive factor, but they are definitely important factors. Japanese soldiers are known for their bravery and strength in combat, but no matter how strong the body is, they cannot resist such powerful and violent firepower. Under the cover of iron and fire, human life is as small as an ant.

The Japanese army, which had never experienced such a powerful and fierce fire bombing in the national army, was shaken across the board, and some Japanese troops began to panic, and the accuracy of their shooting began to decline.

The Second Battalion, which had several actual offensive and defensive battles, became the absolute main force in the attack. Under the leadership of the veterans, the soldiers rushed forward bravely and continued, and then a charge reached one hundred meters ahead of the enemy.

The second wave of howitzers of the National Army began again. This time they directly bombed the Japanese second- and third-tier positions. The Japanese heavy machine gun fire points on the hill were removed one by one, and the Japanese firepower dropped sharply.

The mortars of the battalion were also constantly bombarding the front-line trenches of the Japanese army. This time the mortars were very successful, and most of the shells played a role. The trenches were constantly bombing the broken limbs of the Japanese army that had been blown up and flew into the air. The soldiers of the Chinese army held a bayonet rifle and shouted and rushed to the Japanese positions.
