1057, does this count as killing two birds with one stone?(1/2)
The introduction to mortars is actually very simple.
Any soldier with normal intelligence can operate it. However, it is not easy to master it.
Fortunately, what Yang Yue asked for was not proficiency, but coverage.
You fire with your eyes closed. As long as you land in the middle of the Japanese attack formation, you will be considered completing the task.
"I'll do it!"
Li Wei took it himself.
He likes the feeling of shooting guns and can bully the Japanese.
By the way, in North China, I have always been bullied by the Japanese. I can’t say what I feel in my heart. Maybe I have a chance to turn over now?
"Puff puff puff!"
The shells were discharged one after another.
It fell smoothly in the middle of the Japanese.
Haha, the accuracy is really good. The Japanese have a large attack range and it is impossible to fail.
"boom!"
"boom!"
The shells exploded one after another.
But no few Japanese were killed because the Japanese were very scattered.
After all, the Japanese are relatively professional troops. They know how to reduce the casualties of artillery shells. Mortars cannot stop the Japanese attack.
From a scientific point of view, there is no cost-effectiveness.
You can only kill one or two Japanese devils with a shell. It is definitely not cost-effective!
The shells are limited. They are gone after they are shot.
“Baga…”
"The very unprofessional Tujiao Route Army..."
Japanese Grandmaster Jiro Yanagawa sneered slightly.
He was the captain of the Japanese Infantry Brigade and the main force of this reinforcement.
Yanagawa Jiro always felt that he was not satisfied with his talent. He felt that he should go to the front line instead of staying in a rear like Kaifeng.
Well, in Yanagawa Jiro's opinion, Kaifeng is the rear. Because the enemy's attack was really weak and powerless, the Japanese army did not need to spend much effort to defeat the opponent.
Due to the obstruction of the Yellow Flood Zone, there is no possibility of large-scale battles around Kaifeng. Therefore, Yanagawa Jiro felt that such days were not suitable for him. He should be like an ancient samurai and would always be on the front line. Unfortunately, he applied to be transferred to North China for combat, but he never got what he wanted.
Now he finally seized a chance to fight, so he immediately took the initiative to apply for battle. Then he brought a brigade with about 500 people.
Why are there only five hundred people?
Because the entire independent mixed 11th brigade was dissatisfied with the organization.
The Japanese invaders' troops in non-key areas are basically only half, or two-thirds of them.
Only the garrisons from various strategic locations will be full. The independent mixed 11th Brigade stationed in Kaifeng has a membership of more than 5,000 people. However, in fact, there are less than 3,000 people. The full rate is less than 60%.
In addition to the dissatisfaction of the personnel, various weapons and equipment are also dissatisfaction of the assembly. Especially the number of infantry artillery is seriously insufficient. According to the compilation, they should have 6 infantry artillery pieces. But in fact there are only 3.
In fact, Yang Yue’s inference is wrong.
The Japanese were not behind the infantry artillery, they did not bring them at all.
Yanagawa Jiro only brought one infantry cannon. He felt it was enough. The brigade commander also felt it was enough.
Unexpectedly, Tujia Road actually had a mortar!
Or 82 force!
I was immediately scared and sweated.
I thought it was the main force of the Tujiao Route Army.
Fortunately, the level of artillery bombardment of the Tujiao Route quickly exposed their amateur nature.
Yanagawa Jiro breathed a sigh of relief quietly.
Then……
Yanagawa Jiro's smile gradually solidified.
But he found that the shells did not kill a few people, but many bullets killed.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The enemy in the distance should have only one shot.
However, the opponent's shooting skills were very evil. The Japanese army trying to get close to the train kept falling down.
Almost every gunshot, a person fell down.
Oh, this is very strange. What kind of master have you met?
It's so far away! It's a human being, the size of a sesame and mung bean, can it hit accurately? There's no reason...
Could it be that the Tujiao Eighth Route Army has sniper rifles?
That's impossible! Can it be called Tujiao Route Army with a sniper rifle?
However, this is the cruel fact.
He saw with his own eyes a Japanese army slowly falling down in front of him.
The bullet hit him in the chest.
One shot is fatal.
Then, another Japanese army fell down in the front left.
The bullet also hit the chest. It was also a fatal shot. If it fell down, it stopped moving.
Then……
Yanagawa Jiro suddenly woke up.
Damn it! Those who were beaten to death were all officers! Or lieutenant officers! They were sergeant commanders, military commanders, and so on.
This is a premeditated shooting!
It is a serious tendency for the opponent to choose a target to shoot.
Obviously, the opponent he encountered was very clever.
This is a dangerous enemy!
"Baga!"
"Stop the attack!"
"Both sides go round!"
Yanagawa Jiro hurriedly issued an order.
You can't attack from the front. You must find a way to encircle from both sides.
This is a bad tactic used by the Japanese army. If the frontal attack is not good, it will be encircled from both wings. But the simpler the tactic, the more effective it is.
On the Chinese battlefield, such tactics have been tried and tested by the Japanese army. Now they have been used again.
So, some Japanese troops began to detour from both sides.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The monotonous gunshot continued to come.
Yanagawa Jiro held up the telescope and his face became more and more gloomy.
But he saw from the telescope that the Japanese army trying to encircle the two wings were constantly falling.
Damn it!
The opponent's shooting skills are too cruel.
There was no way to avoid the opponent's shooting between six or seven hundred meters.
But it was along the railway line, the terrain was relatively flat. It was difficult for the Japanese army to hide themselves completely unless they were stretching the distance to kilometers away.
Fortunately, his subordinates were very tenacious. Even after suffering major casualties, they still quickly detoured from both wings.
"Retreat!"
"Retreat to the Yellow River."
Yang Yue waved his hand.
