One Thousand One Hundred and Seventy-Four Brutal Attacks

ps. Here is today’s update, and by the way, let’s vote for the "Starting Point" 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 tickets, and the voting will also give you starting point coins. I beg everyone to support and appreciate it!

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have thought that the German army's demining method was so barbaric and powerful that it was unreasonable? Those minefields carefully laid out by Japanese engineers to stop the advance of Soviet tank troops were mixed with anti-tank mines and anti-infantry mines. They only caused trouble for the German army for half an hour, and were easily torn apart. Please read the most complete!

When the Grenadiers of the German Wehrmacht carried their weapons, bent over and quickly rushed into the Japanese trenches through the passage that had been completely cleared of obstacles, the Japanese soldiers had not yet recovered from the huge explosion and roar. Get back your lost sense of hearing.

Staggering, these Japanese soldiers saw German soldiers rushing into their trenches. They were extremely shocked to see the enemies who should have been blocked by minefields in the open space in the distance, and then trapped there waiting to die, appeared in front of them. a few meters away.

So these Japanese soldiers hurriedly grabbed the rifles that they didn't know when they lost, and prepared to fire at the enemies who suddenly appeared in front of them. But they once again lost to the weapons in their hands, because they will soon find that the 38-type rifles they once trusted so much have really become "garbage" that can kill them.

Yes, rubbish! The infantry tactics that the Japanese army has always emphasized are precise shooting and ferocious assassination, which has a lot to do with their own resources and beliefs. First of all, the Japanese army lacked metal resources, so they hated any waste of steel - the accumulation of bullets was a considerable amount of metal resources, so the Japanese army was unwilling to waste it.

Because of this, the Japanese emphasize the precise shooting of individual soldiers, advocate long-distance firing to hit the target, and are unwilling to use weapons that waste ammunition—so when the German army used semi-power ammunition on a large scale and was equipped with assault rifles, Japanese troops were still there. Stick to single-shot bolt-action rifles and machine guns only.

In fact, this is also related to the Japanese army's tactical thinking: because the Japanese army has never been able to experiment with the blitzkrieg tactics of large-scale tank units advancing in groups, the high-level Japanese army has always been unable to believe that in future wars, the distance between the two sides will change fundamentally. in conclusion. On the contrary, this conclusion was put forward by the German army, and it has also been tested in actual combat.

The Japanese army believed that their battlefield would still be the same as it was in World War I, fighting at a distance of about a kilometer. Rifles should play a role in accurate shooting at this distance, and hand-to-hand combat relied more on the bravery of soldiers and bayonets. technology - that's how they train their soldiers.

In fact, this point of view is very correct to a certain extent, because in Southeast Asia and China, backward tactics and outdated weapons make the war here exactly the same as the Japanese high-level speculation.

This is why before Japan met the United States and Germany,

The reason why they seldom suffer on the battlefield: Because when the Japanese troops are training, they are targeting the enemies they need to face. These enemies do not have heavy weapons and heavy firepower. A kind of trench warfare.

So under such circumstances, the Japanese army's hard-trained precision shooting can bring huge casualties to the opponent, and the fierce charge and fight will make the opponent terrified. However, as time passed, when the main enemies of the Japanese army became the United States and Germany, those elite Japanese infantrymen found that they had no room for their invincible fighting qualities.

The ideal distance for Japanese infantry combat is between 300 meters and 800 meters. As long as the battle is stalemate at this distance, the advantage of the Japanese army's accurate shooting will be reflected, and the opponent will either bite the bullet and continue to support because of casualties, or be defeated. However, at this distance, the Americans often call for artillery support and use a large number of heavy firepower to suppress the Japanese army.

But now, the fighting methods shown by the Germans at Nomenkan seem to be more brutal and direct than the Americans: the Germans did not fight the Japanese at a distance of about 800 meters, they directly used heavily armored tanks and assault guns to cover His own infantry quickly approached to a distance of 300 meters to 200 meters.

Once approaching this distance, the G43 semi-automatic rifle and the P-44 assault rifle equipped by the German army can immediately exert their absolute advantage in firepower density, allowing the Japanese bolt-type single-shot rifle to have the advantage of high long-range shooting accuracy Nothing left. When the battle spread to the trenches, the continuous firepower of the German submachine guns, assault rifles, and semi-automatic rifles made it impossible for the Japanese soldiers to fight bayonets.

The Japanese soldiers managed to hold their rifles in the narrow trenches. When they just pulled the bolt, they found the German soldiers aiming at them with their weapons. Before they could push the bullets in their guns into the bomb bay, the opponent had already skillfully pulled the trigger under his finger.

Gunshots rang out densely, as if the Eight-Power Allied Forces that invaded China were massacring the spearmen of the Qing Dynasty with muskets. One by one, the Japanese soldiers fell down while clutching the bullet holes in their chests with unwilling eyes. Occasionally, the Japanese army fired, but they could only fire one shot in a panic, and it was impossible to cause suppressive damage to the German army.

The battle quickly turned into a massacre. The Japanese army, who hadn't figured out what happened to the landslide-like explosion just now, found that the German soldiers had been holding a strange weapon, and they were constantly shooting at them. The deadly bullet is gone.

"The enemy has already rushed into the trenches! The enemy has already rushed into the trenches!" A Japanese soldier ran past his companion's bunker in panic, reminding his allies loudly that they must do well in the next battle. Corresponding preparations, after all, counting the friendly troops on the two wings, tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers guarding their positions, it is impossible to be defeated by such a small number of German troops in front of them.

When the news that the German army had entered the trench bunkers began to spread, what all Japanese soldiers thought of was not to retreat or escape, but to fight back! The Japanese army's arrogance in China for several years did not rely on luck. Their combat literacy and sense of bravery even surpassed the German army and the Soviet army, and they can definitely be called world-class.

The Japanese army in the nearby trenches launched a counterattack immediately, without even waiting for their company to issue an order to counterattack. Countless Japanese soldiers pulled out the bayonets at their waists without saying a word after the Sergeant Cao gave the order, and stuck them under the muzzle of the 38-style rifle. Pairs of resolute eyes under the helmet looked fiercely at the direction the German army was attacking.

"The Germans blasted our mines with dynamite, and they took advantage of the cunning to break into our positions! Soldiers of His Majesty the Emperor, now we are going to retake our positions and drive back the European barbarians who covet the imperial land. Go!" A commander waved his command knife at the ready soldiers in the trench.

"His Majesty the Emperor...Long live!" The Japanese soldiers raised their rifles high and yelled, rushing along the trenches to the positions where the Germans had broken through. These trenches and bunkers were dug out by themselves with shovels, so they were stronger than anyone else. Know the structure and terrain here. This is their advantage, and now they want to use their advantage to restore the decline on the battlefield.

It is a pity that under such circumstances, the Kawasaki United Captain still found that his defensive position was being lost at a speed visible to the naked eye. He saw his infantry rushing along the trenches towards the area where the German army broke through, and then the dense rain of bullets would cause the Japanese soldiers who launched the desperate charge to fall in pieces.

Seeing that another charge was covered by the unique sound of machine guns that seemed to be tearing cloth, Kawasaki knew that it was impossible to regain his front line from the Germans.

"Call Miyamoto-kun and tell him that the enemy army is much stronger than expected, tell him not to underestimate the enemy, and let those German tanks suffer as soon as possible, otherwise our second-line defensive positions will be in danger!" Kawasaki looked at In the distance, the infantry soldiers who were driven back to the starting point by the hail of bullets anxiously ordered to their adjutants.

"Hi!" The adjutant hurriedly stood at attention and bent down, and exited the tightly camouflaged headquarters with the order.

The call from Kawasaki made Miyamoto, the commander of the Japanese tank unit, a little dumbfounded. Of course he knew that the Germans were much stronger than expected, because if he hadn’t covered his tanks with camouflage nets because of the loss of air supremacy, maybe The air strike just now made him withdraw from the battlefield.

But what can he do now? Let your tank drive out of the bunker and charge against the German tank? If German tanks and Soviet tanks are comparable in performance, to do so is to order one's own tank crew to commit suicide. But if they still stand still, it seems that the Kawasaki United's first-line defensive position may really collapse.

"Baga! If I rashly start to fight back now, the second-line position will really be over!" Holding his command knife, he said through gritted teeth: "Let Captain Kawasaki withstand the pressure! As long as the Germans move closer , the distance reaches 600 meters... no, 650 meters! I will order the tank troops to fire back!"

After finishing speaking, Miyamoto was still not sure about the battle situation in front of him. He looked at the Type 97 tank parked beside him. The 57mm short-barreled tank gun equipped with this tank was the only thing he could rely on now. . As long as the weapons equipped by the Japanese army can destroy the German tanks on the opposite side, then despite the current disadvantage, the Japanese army still has hope of victory!
