Chapter 1018 Bloody Battle
In places where there were no soldiers of the 72nd Army, people from both sides had already engaged in a melee. It was obvious that the 35th Army was at a disadvantage. Even though they were more enthusiastic about serving their country, they were usually too weak and were no match for the Japanese.
"Guards platoon, change pistols! Follow me."
When Captain Qian saw that this was not a solution, he immediately called his men and pulled out their pistols. There were both our people and Japanese soldiers on the distant position, and more than a hundred Japanese soldiers had already rushed in. They had to hurry over.
When Captain Qian and his men rushed up, they discovered that there were only more than 20 people left in the guard platoon of more than 100 people.
Just now I only saw the Japanese falling down, but didn't look carefully at our people. It turns out that many of our people also died during the close combat.
But even these twenty or so people were holding twenty-shot Mauser pistols in their hands, ready to shoot at the Japanese in the distance. Anyway, they were all fighting with bayonets at the moment, and each person only needed one or two bullets to prevent you from fighting with bayonets with all your strength, and your opponent would naturally be able to kill you.
While his men were clearing the area, Captain Qian stood next to the Maxim heavy machine gun and began shooting at the thick smoke in front of him.
This area has just been breached. Now the Japanese soldiers behind must be coming here. It is most important to restore the firepower on this position as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if you clear it, there will soon be a second and third group rushing up after this group.
After seeing that there were not many Japanese soldiers on the battlefield, the brothers around them quickly picked up the grenades on the ground and threw them forward desperately.
The brothers of the rear transport regiment each carried a box of grenades on their shoulders and when they arrived here, they simply threw away the lids and scattered them in the trenches. Seeing their bold actions, the former captain was scared. He hoped that they would not explode due to collisions and kill us.
The brothers of the transport regiment all ran with their mouths open for a long time, which made them feel dry and thirsty, and they felt that all the strength in their bodies had been drained, but they could not stop at this moment. Some of them scattered grenades in the trenches and took the opportunity to throw two more when they saw the Japanese in the distance.
However, they were immediately scolded by their superiors and told to hurry back to carry the remaining grenades. At our current transportation speed, there are basically only a few grenades left in the trenches. By the time you bring them next time, this batch will have been thrown away.
Commander He was not idle at this moment. Five minutes ago, he had gathered all the combat staff and clerks, even the grooms and cooks of the military headquarters. Finally, more than 200 non-combat personnel were gathered together. Each of them carried a box of grenades on his shoulders, and some held another box in their hands. They quickly came towards the trench.
"Put a box every ten meters, put a box every ten meters, hurry up."
Commander He saw that some people had piled grenades together, and he quickly ordered these people who had no combat experience to disperse. There was no point in putting all the grenades together, and there were not so many soldiers here.
The soldiers in the trench were now doing mechanical work. They turned around and took two grenades from behind, then poked open both lids at the same time, pulled the fuses at the same time, and then threw them out.
The man had little strength left, and it was not easy to throw the grenade five meters away. But even so, the Japanese soldiers outside were still swarming forward. It seemed that they were really not afraid of death. They knew that there were grenades everywhere, but they could not retreat. The Japanese soldiers behind them pushed them forward, and even if you didn't move, the people behind you would automatically make you move forward.
Moreover, it is easy to be pushed down if you stand still. Once you are pushed down, the grenade may not kill you, but your comrades behind you may trample you to death.
Both sides were fighting for their lives at this moment. The Japanese knew that they had suffered many casualties, but no one cared about that at the moment. They had only one idea in their minds, which was to keep rushing forward, no matter whether there were bullets or grenades in front of them. They could not stand still anyway.
A large number of charging Japanese soldiers pushed forward vigorously and did not notice the grenade passing under their feet. When the grenade exploded, more than a dozen people took off in an instant.
Some Japanese soldiers rushed to the front, and when the grenade exploded, they were directly blown to the position of the 35th Army.
These guys were also thinking about doing their work, but unfortunately, when the explosion happened just now, shrapnel injured them and fell heavily from the sky. The soldiers of the 35th Army next to them didn't say anything, but picked up anything they could and hit them on the head.
The men of the 72nd Army seemed more experienced. Pistols and rifles were scattered around, and they would pick up whichever gun was closest to them and shoot it.
Although it is not as satisfying as hitting someone with the butt of a gun, saving time is the most important thing at this moment.
Some brothers in the 35th Army also learned it. They put a pistol on their waist, threw grenades while observing the surroundings, and if any Japanese approached, they would shoot them.
In order to save bullets, many people just shoot this shot. No matter what your situation is, as long as you are hit by this shot, your combat effectiveness will be reduced by at least half, and the threat to us will not be that great.
If you are pushed into the trench by the shock wave, you will have to fire two more shots.
"Hit me hard."
Commander He brought up two more boxes of grenades. His hands were covered in blood from being scratched by the splinters, but he seemed to no longer feel anything.
After opening the box, he threw two grenades out without caring whether they hit anyone or not, and then ran back, leaving his coat behind.
Now he is not a lieutenant general, but just an ordinary transport personnel. His confidential staff and personal bodyguards are nowhere to be found. Follow his orders and put down all the work in your hands and your identity. You are now just an ordinary transport personnel.
Your mission is to transport large quantities of grenades from the rear to the trenches.
The transportation distance of just fifty meters has made these people so tired that they can hardly stand up straight, but as long as the position is still there, it means that our efforts are worth it.
Just when the two sides were fighting fiercely, the sound of an airplane was heard in the sky. At this time, everyone understood which side's plane was coming, and that side would basically win.
When the planes began to dive from the sky, the people on the 35th Army's position began to cheer, because those were our planes.
The fighter planes that took off from the north finally arrived at the 35th Army's position...
