Chapter 43 The Simplest Answer

"So, I'm afraid this battle will have to continue."

Brigadier General Smartet's face gradually became serious, and his voice became a little deeper. "This is good news for the Chinese, but it is a big trouble for us."

The one who felt more troublesome than Brigadier Smart was naturally Beicang Mandu. Looking back, he saw clouds of smoke and dust rising in the distance, and his head instantly became bigger.

Yes, the four mortars on the roof, at this moment, were like sharks that smelled the smell of blood, pouring firepower unscrupulously towards the infantry cannon 700 meters away.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Violent explosions sounded continuously.

The heart of the Japanese captain who had previously been so high-spirited and thought about standing on the ruins of the enemy's fortress to be awarded a medal was also blown to pieces.

Although it is not as cold as ice, Beicang Mandu knows that the Chinese chose this timing really badly. Their four mountain cannons and four infantry cannons should still be looking for suitable positions to avoid smashing the shells into the damn Western Ocean. People’s concession.

The two infantry cannons following him were unable to fire back because the infantry in front of them had already reached the front of the warehouse, so they could only be beaten passively. In terms of heavy firepower, their advantage suddenly turned into a disadvantage.

But all this is not because the Chinese have chosen their fighter planes well, but has a great relationship with him, the supreme commander of the left-wing battlefield.

If he had waited for 30 minutes until the wing artillery squadron had completely deployed its position before launching an attack, he would not have been in such a predicament.

To put it bluntly, it was Beicang Mandu who was so dedicated that he gave the Chinese an opportunity to defeat their own infantry cannons. If two infantry cannons were blown up, he, the army captain, would be the first to bear the responsibility.

If you want to reduce your own responsibilities, there is only one way to go. Continue to attack. Victory can cover up all ugliness.

Therefore, Beicang Mandu, who looked extremely ugly, sent out communications troops to request an attack from the front of the warehouse to reduce the pressure on his left battlefield, and at the same time ordered the heavy machine gun to raise its elevation and shoot at the shooting holes located on the second and third floors in order to suppress China With the firepower of the defenders, they also ordered all the grenade launchers under their command to fire grenades at the roof of the building. Regardless of whether they could hit the building or not, they still wanted to harass the Chinese mortar crews, right?

What if it gets hit!

Of course, the most resolute order was naturally left to the infantry squad that had entered the 50 meters in front of the warehouse. Beicang Mandu gave them a desperate order to rush downstairs and attack the solid wall that even the infantry cannon could not break. Carry out blasting.

As long as he blows open the wall and rushes into this extremely strong fortress, even if the infantry cannon is destroyed and the infantry suffers heavy losses, the medal can still be hung on his chest, Beicang Mandu.

It can be said that until this time, the Japanese captain had not given up his dream of winning a victory and winning a medal.

The so-called daydreaming may not specifically refer to the daytime, but do you want to daydream?

The reality is that if you want to play with life for free, life will not treat you kindly.

If the Japanese infantry artillery team still has fortifications to avoid artillery fire, it is not that difficult to push the 200-kilogram infantry artillery and run, and there is still some room for maneuver;

The light and heavy machine gun shooters only need to squeeze the trigger a few more times to tell their commander that he has worked hard;

The grenade hand simply throws a few more grenades at a faster speed to show that he has almost broken the skin;

The two infantry squads responsible for the cover had their faces darkened by the smoke from their rifles, which showed that they were also dedicated.

Then, the Japanese forwards who suddenly entered a decisive battle state...

Very embarrassing.

A desperate charge? You're kidding me!

The opponent has dozens of shooting holes and at least a dozen continuous fire points. The bullets are like pouring water. You have to press your buttocks hard to avoid leaking when you are lying on the ground. Why the hell do you stand up and continue to charge forward with the bullets? The chance of being beaten to death is definitely more than 70%.

At this time, shouldn't we retreat and wait for the empire's artillery to destroy the enemy's hidden fortifications or heavy firepower points before sending a few more brothers in? Squadron leader, are you abandoning even the fixed routines in the army's drill code? Bullying my buddy for not studying enough?

At least more than 90% of the strong men in the Japanese infantry squad who received the death order had indescribable things happening in their minds with the women of Captain Beicang's family.

The commander's order made the Japanese infantry resist. This was not embarrassing. What was really embarrassing was that the Chinese defenders did not seem to leave any room for them. Even if they continued to pretend to be dead and hide in the ruins, it would not work.

The lieutenant colonel had long since left his headquarters near the banks of the Suzhou River.

The top commander of the ** team in Sihang Warehouse was standing behind the solid wall on the left wing of the third floor.

Behind him stood the second company commander Deng Ying and Tang Dao.

The second commander, Major Yang Ruifu, the battalion commander, went to the first company responsible for the frontal defense operations of the warehouse to supervise the operations. However, as the backbone platoon leader of the first company, Tang Dao came to the defensive position of the second company. This was somewhat strange.

But Deng Ying, the commander of the second company, had no unusual look on his face. The reason was very simple. Tang Dao, as the designer of the defensive firepower point of the entire warehouse, started to attack the Japanese army on the left wing, so he was temporarily transferred from the first company by the army lieutenant colonel to take charge. Observe the battlefield and make necessary adjustments to the firepower configuration based on actual conditions.

After defeating the Japanese troops in the pre-dawn round, everyone had admired Tang Dao's firepower configuration to the core.

The firepower configuration looks simple, just placing machine guns and artillery in position, but it is not a simple matter to be able to guess the Japanese army's deployment and even which direction to move first.

And now, after a wave of beatings, the Japanese army is indeed attacking with the left wing as the main force, and the front troops are responsible for containment.

"Captain Deng, what do you think the Japanese commander will do next? What should we do?" The army lieutenant colonel glanced at the Japanese infantry hiding in the ruins fifty meters away through a small shooting hole, his eyes cold.

"Sir, I think the Japanese commander has two choices. One: order the vanguard soldiers to stay on the spot and wait for the front troops to launch an attack to disperse our heavy firepower, while consuming our defending ammunition, and when the time is right, they can launch an attack;

Second: evacuate first, wait for their artillery firing angles to be adjusted to bombard the roof, and then launch an attack after destroying our heavy firepower.

And we cannot expose our heavy firepower for too long to prevent losses caused by the Japanese artillery fire." Deng Ying obviously had a plan for this question and did not hesitate to answer it.

"Hmm!" The lieutenant colonel nodded and looked at Tang Dao: "Tang Platoon Leader, what do you think?"

"Sir, I think that no matter what the Japanese commander chooses, we only have one choice, which is to do something special." Tang Dao gave a simple and almost reckless answer that was unexpected by the two.

There was a moment of silence, and the lieutenant colonel's eyes showed a hint of realization.

Tang Dao's answer seemed simple, but it only referred to one tactical core-trying to kill and injure the Japanese invaders.

Tactics are responsible for strategy. What was the purpose of the 1st Battalion of the 524th Regiment being trapped in the Sihang Warehouse alone? Wasn't it to show the whole country and the whole world that the Chinese people had not given up Songhu!

Why play tricks with them? We finally put a Japanese infantry squad within 50 meters, so we must kill them and hurt the Japanese army, so that all of China and the world can see the bloody wounds of the Japanese army and know that they are not as invincible as they seem.

When the Japanese are hurt, they will cry.
