    Although as a captain of the majestic army, he must not be complacent about this small victory at this moment, Colonel Asakawa still said to the communications staff officer beside him with a smile: "Your Excellency, the commander of the telegraph division, just tell me  The leading troops of the 44th Regiment have broken through the outer positions of Baoqing and are preparing to launch a full-scale attack on Baoqing County. "

    "Please rest assured, Your Excellency, the Division Commander, the 44th Regiment will definitely capture Baoqing County in the shortest possible time in accordance with the requirements of the Division Commander, and open a way for the entire division to go north. Our 44th Regiment will definitely  The shame they have brought to the 44th Regiment will be washed away with the blood of the Manchus in Baoqing City."

    "In addition, urge the main force of the regiment to stop dilly-dallying and seize the time to rendezvous with the leading group. The distance of thirty kilometers is almost time to climb over. Tell the young masters of the cavalry squadron to leave a small group behind.  Take care of the wounded, and others will fight the artillery shells left on the front line of Hongshan. The imperial soldiers are not the young soldiers in the West who cannot fight without horses. "

    Compared with the excitement shown by Teji Asakawa, who was somewhat unable to hold his breath, Major Aokawa standing next to him looked at the excitement that was inadvertently revealed on his face even though it was well concealed, and he couldn't help but feel  Somewhat sad: "When did the majestic Imperial Japanese Army fall to the point of being proud of defeating the small resistance of its opponents?"

    "Furthermore, it only looks like the opponent's resistance has been defeated. The flag of the brigade has not yet been planted on the opponent's position. Whether it has truly defeated the opponent's resistance is unclear. Is the victory of the unit captain a bit premature?  Really? If things are not as expected, the captain will be embarrassed. "

    "Just looking at the slight trace of pride on the face of the co-captain, knowing the temper of the co-captain, he hesitated, swallowed his words of persuasion, and focused all his attention on the war in front of him.

    Unlike Tetsuji Asakawa, when he saw that the attacking troops in front had already touched the opponent's front trench within thirty meters, and seemed to be able to break into the opponent's defensive position in one go, Major Aokawa suddenly felt an unusually familiar feeling when looking at the situation in front of him.  It feels like I'm passing by this scene.

    Major Qingchuan's memory was pretty good, and he immediately remembered that he had seen a similar scene there. During the Battle of Qunce Mountain last year, he had already touched the edge of the opponent's trench, and just when he thought he was about to break through the opponent  During the defense, a sudden change occurred. The scene at that time was almost exactly the same as now. The only difference was that the opponent had not reacted yet and did not launch the rain of grenades like last year that had become his nightmare until now.

    Major Qingchuan has a vivid memory of the almost endless rain of grenades that hit his face at Qunce Mountain last year. If he hadn't been very kind to his subordinates at that time, his subordinates fought desperately to save him, and their backs were flying in all directions.  He was stuck with grenade fragments like a hedgehog. He had died long ago in Qunce Mountain, where he could still take advantage of the reorganization of the 44th Regiment to advance to the next level and become the captain.

    At present, the opponent is deliberately showing weakness and wants to adopt the tactics they used in Qunce Mountain last year. When the firepower gap is large, they put the imperial army's attack troops in and use the tactics that can be used to rain overwhelming grenades to effectively  Kill and injure imperial soldiers.

    As expected, the development of the subsequent war did not exceed Major Qingchuan's expectations. It was almost exactly the same as the encounter in the bloody battle that impressed Major Qingchuan last year. Just as Colonel Asakawa finished reporting the results to the division headquarters, he had already  The attacking troops who rushed to less than thirty meters away from the opponent's blocking position were hit by a rain of grenades fired by the opponent.

    The grenades fired by the opponent seemed to be endless. Several times the attacking troops made forced attacks, but they were all smashed down with grenades, and the officers among them suffered heavy casualties. After several waves of attacks, the one who commanded the attacking troops in front was  There are only a few Cao chiefs left.

    The scene in front of him made Colonel Asakawa Teiji, who had already sent out the good news in advance, obviously very upset. Although he didn't have a big mouth like he did to the cavalry squadron leader on the Red Mountain front line, his face fell instantly.  , Major Qingchuan¡¯s expression over there was not much better.

    In fact, the Japanese army is fully equipped, and every soldier is issued with a steel helmet. Except for the unlucky ones who are directly hit by grenades, most of them will basically not die at once. However, it is impossible for the Japanese army to equip their entire bodies with steel plates.  Although the fragments formed by the grenade explosion in the air cannot cause much damage to the most deadly head, it is another matter for the body that is unprotected all over.

    Except for a few unlucky ones who were directly hit by grenades, among the Japanese soldiers who rushed up in the first wave, not many were killed on the spot, only one-third. According to this casualty number, forFor the Japanese army with a tough character, it is impossible to reach the point where it loses its combat effectiveness.

    Although there were not many people killed directly, the number of casualties caused was quite large. Those who touched the front of the opponent's position supplemented the first wave of attack troops of the two teams. In the rain of grenades thrown by the opponent, except for those who were directly killed,  , some people, their whole bodies were pricked by grenade fragments like honeycomb coals.

    The opponent's grenades seem to be thrown forever, almost endlessly, and most of them are produced by grenades that explode in the air and cannot be scattered in all directions. Shrapnel that can kill people has almost no blind spots.  It gave the vanguard squadron a thorough bath of shrapnel.

    On the battlefield, especially when faced with an army like the Japanese that could suffer casualties as high as 80% but still persist in not collapsing, death is not a scary term, but looking at the comrades around you  , the whole body was pricked by grenades like honeycomb, and the living being was unable to be bandaged because it was too close to the opponent's position, and the living being was hurt to death due to excessive blood loss, so the effect would be different.

    In fact, Yang Zhen's troops often used this tactic of placing the attacking troops within grenade throwing distance and then covering the entire formation of the Japanese attacking troops with a rain of grenades. It is not that the Japanese army did not understand it, but sometimes it was this simple tactic.  , but the Japanese army never found an effective way to deal with it.

    Yang Zhen's troops were required to dig trenches and communication trenches at least half a man deep. If conditions permitted, they would often dig trenches as deep as one man and build them into steps. At the same time, a large number of trenches were usually built in the trenches.  Anti-blast holes and partitions, edges and corners.

    This layout can not only ensure that the front-line troops are provided with sufficient cover to prevent them from being heavily killed by Japanese artillery fire, but also ensure that the troops in the trenches are not killed by Japanese machine gun fire when they are moving.

    The most important thing is that the biggest advantage of this kind of fortification is that when needed, except for leaving one or two observation posts to observe the movements of the Japanese army, most people only need to huddle in the trench and pull the string of the grenade assigned to them. After a two-second pause,  Just throw it out as hard as you can without even sticking your head out. It's quite simple and practical.

    When encountering this kind of tactics, even if the Japanese army's marksmanship is accurate and there are many sharpshooters, there is nothing you can do if they don't show their heads. And if you want to use grenade launchers to hit their trenches, they will deploy light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers behind them.  , plus a large number of sharpshooters, and even mortars are not vegetarian.

    Unless the Japanese army uses heavy artillery to flatten all the opponent's trenches or use up all the opponent's grenades, they still can't find any way to deal with this tactic. Today it is obvious that even if the ground is covered with a thick layer of  There were layers of grenade fragments, but there was still no shortage of grenades thrown by the opponent.

    In fact, Colonel Asakawa was quite unlucky. He didn't know that there was a warehouse of the Logistics Department of the Jidong Military Region in Baoqing County. In addition to a small amount of mountain artillery shells, the largest reserves in this warehouse were hand grenades and landmines, and of course there were 7,000  Multiple 90mm mortar rounds were fired.

    Since it is not in the main combat direction, the warehouse here is actually just a backup warehouse. There is not much ammunition and materials in reserve, but the largest reserves are grenades and landmines, various trip mines and pressure mines, as well as lethality  Not to mention the largest infantry directional mine, there are nearly 100,000 grenades in reserve.

    In order to strengthen the firepower of the blocking troops, Yang Zhen fired all these grenades. Compared with the standard of four grenades carried by ordinary troops, together with the troops in Baoqing County, there are currently only 3,000 troops around Baoqing.  On average, each person can get at least thirty coins.

    The quantity was sufficient and it was easy to use. Naturally, no one would feel bad about it. Later, Liu Yihu, who could not compete with the Japanese army with heavy weapons, simply gave up the face-to-face confrontation with the Japanese army, less than a hundred meters away.  Don't fire, use grenades and submachine guns to greet them within thirty meters, and use infantry directional mines to greet them any closer.

    At the same time, the light and heavy machine guns that have been withdrawn to the second-line positions are specially used to fill leaks. Anyway, no matter how fierce the Japanese attack force is, I have a certain rule, that is, I will never engage in hand-to-hand combat with you. If you are far away, I will use a rifle machine gun. If you are close, I will use grenades to add miscellaneous weapons.  greeted with a submachine gun.

    It was this tactic that seemed a bit rogue to the Japanese army, but Colonel Asakawa and Major Aokawa never found a way to deal with it. The subsequent attacks they launched in succession all enjoyed the same treatment as the leading squadron without exception.  , almost all of them were not repelled, but were blown up by the overwhelming grenades. The opponent's tactics made the two people completely helpless.

    "We can't cover every soldier's body with iron sheets, let alone if there is no place to look for them, even if they can be found, if this person is allWith iron sheets all over his body, he can still fight and charge. The failure of several charges made Colonel Asakawa somewhat regretful. Why did he shoot out the shells of two infantry guns so early? Even if he wanted to take  There is no way to suppress it with firepower or force a breakthrough.

    In response to his opponent's seemingly rogue tactics, in addition to scolding his opponent for being a rogue, Asakawa Teiji, who was helpless, almost yelled at the radio at the top of his lungs at the cavalrymen who were sluggish without horses. He hadn't delivered the artillery shells for so long.  Come over, and at the same time, the main force of the regiment carrying mountain artillery can't get close to them at a distance of thirty kilometers.
