Chapter 172 Director Lin Turns the Tide

The shell exploded on the tidal flat, and the sand and gravel splashed outward. It seemed that it had rained on the surface of the river, and large and small ripples spread out, and were torn apart by the waves from upstream.

da da da da da~
chirp~ chirp~
The sound of bullets hitting rocks and the sound of chirping into water can be heard endlessly.
The Japanese on the bamboo raft fell one by one under the machine gun fire, and the people behind simply lay behind the dead bodies, occasionally getting up and firing a shot. The artillery shells falling in the river exploded into a white streak, and the water droplets splashed on the Japanese soldiers with heat, wetting their uniforms and washing away the blood on the bamboo rafts.
Billowing black smoke floated from the tidal flats and moved downstream along the river wind. The shells of the 75mm field artillery and 75mm mountain artillery exploded in the Japanese Nantianmen position. The fire suddenly appeared, and the whole mountain trembled. .
A mortar shell landed beside the Japanese soldiers who had just come down from the bamboo raft, killing three on the spot and injuring five. The soldiers behind panicked, not knowing whether to advance or retreat, and then they were taken away by the bullets fired from the east bank defense line, fell into the river with a plop, and were carried southward by the current.
The Japanese soldiers who were scattered by the turbulent river could not gather together, let alone organize a powerful charge. They fought on their own in the tidal flats that stretched for several miles in front of the Henglan Mountain position, and counterattacked the Chinese soldiers in the high position with 38 large caps.
The machine gunner with the crooked handle couldn't find a suitable shooting point, and stooped around. Occasionally, stray bullets hit his feet, and a horse fell to the ground in fright. When he found out that he was not dead, he put on his helmet and raised the machine gun again. Continue to move to higher places.
The only things that can affect the soldiers in the trenches are grenades, mortars, and infantry, field artillery, and mountain artillery from Nantianmen. Although it is difficult to cause a devastating blow to them, the suppression effect cannot be underestimated. .
Cui Yong and Li Wula entered the bunker of the main force group. The Maxim heavy machine gun and Browning heavy machine gun were fully fired, and the rectangular shooting port kept swallowing flames.
bang bang bang~

Milong put the butt of the Czech machine gun on his shoulder, pressed down the muzzle slightly, and pressed the trigger with his fingers. The trembling of the gun body also caused his body to tremble, and the continuous bullets cut off the Japanese soldiers who were delusional. In one fell swoop, there were dead bodies in the tidal flat ahead.
Douban held the magazine and occasionally wiped the snot from the smoke.
Veterinarian Hao shuttled through the fortifications, patted the faces of the stunned recruits from time to time, said comforting words such as "Be good baby, don't be afraid", and pulled the wounded who were injured by stray bullets into the cat's ear hole.
Holding the helmet in one hand and the Lee Enfield rifle in the other, Long Wenwen walked down the trench and saw a recruit slipping from the sandbag cover back into the trench because of a jammed gun and fiddled with the rifle with his head bowed. , The kicked recruit straight grinned.
"What the hell are you doing! Take a Hanyang made heirloom, there are so many good guns on the battlefield, so pick them up and use them."
The recruit said, "But... that... that is..."
"What's that? What's that? The bastards of the main force can run faster than donkeys when they hear the Japanese beat them. They don't need any weapons. You don't need them. Wait for them to come back and get them?"
The recruits came to their senses, quickly threw away the old antiques in their hands, picked up the 79 rifles placed at the corner of the trench, and returned to the place just now to continue fighting.
"Listen everyone, look at the guns in your hands. If you have a good replacement model behind you, remember to take it back after you beat the devil. Yu Xiaoqing said, don't save him money."
The artillery roared in front, and Long Wenwen screamed in the trench with his neck stuck. A shell landed behind him, and the splashed mud covered his face, and then there was a sound of spitting out.
The recruits in the cannon fodder reacted, and hurriedly threw away the Hanyang-made guns in their hands to pick up the good guns that the soldiers of the main regiment thought were in the way and discarded them when they fled.
Meng Fan shot and killed a Japanese soldier who got under the gun in a panic. He glanced at the Japanese army on the tidal flat who had been blown upside down by shells, and then took a look at the Nantianmen position.
"Hey, those grandchildren in the Artillery Battalion are getting more and more accurate."
Ah Yi said beside him: "Look, those Japanese soldiers are going to run away."
Five corpses were piled up in front of the bamboo raft on the right front. A lieutenant hid behind and summoned his subordinates to prepare to leave the east bank. A hole was drilled.
The lieutenant fell to the ground, a stream of blood dripping from between his brows.
Meng Fanle took a look at the upstream position: "Don't you think the whole thing is too coincidental?"
Ah Yi said, "What do you mean?"
"It just so happened that the master wanted to pull us out on a whim, it just so happened that the Japanese army invaded on a large scale, and it just so happened that Yu Xiaoqing's main regiment dispersed in a hurry, and then he gave us less than two battalions of troops to shoot a Japanese army to death on the beach All thanks to God." Meng Fanlai said, "Is there such a coincidence in the world?"
"Hearing you say that, it's really a coincidence."
"Officer Ayi, do you still remember when we didn't go to Myanmar, Lin Zuo didn't sleep every night and went to swim in the Nu River?"
Ah Yi nodded: "That's the case."
It was only after the incident that he realized what Meng Fan meant: "You mean, Lin Yue doesn't sleep every night, so he went to the other side?"
"Then can you still find a reasonable guess to explain what happened today?"
"The West Bank is the territory of the Japanese, is he going to die?"
Meng Fan turned his head with a look of disdain: "Think about it carefully, since we arrived in Myanmar, has he done anything terrible? How often is it that the people who watched it were terrified and sweated for him."
"That's true." Ah Yi said: "Lin Yue is really a hero."
Meng annoyed and said, "I'm not telling you this to let you praise him."
Ah Yi said: "Then what do you want me to do?"
"Forget it, forget it, you elm head, it's useless for me to say that Tang Kei is trying hard on you."
"Why is this getting involved with Deputy Teacher Tang again?"
Meng ignored him when he was annoyed, and leaned against the cover and yelled loudly to the blue sky: "Get dumplings, small Japanese dumplings with thin skin and big stuffing."
...
The Japanese army underestimated the power of the Nujiang River. When they rowed from the west bank to the east bank, the surf had already smashed the formation into pieces. Facing the Jiangfang with cannon fodder joined, before Yu Xiaoqing arrived with the spy battalion, a brigade of thousands Of the rest, 30% died when crossing the river, 30% died on the tidal flats, and 30% died while retreating. Less than 100% of them survived the lonely ghosts hiding in the corners and dare not move. into troops.
When Long Wenwen was happy to call the cannon fodder children Grandpa, Yu Xiaoqing brought Zhang Lixian, He Shuguang, and Yu Shenqing who was tied up to the cannon fodder regiment's position.
