Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

The detachment of the Second Regiment constantly harassed the enemy with sniper guns and mines, even when they were sleeping at night.

Captain Liao brought a lot of the Japanese melon grenades, which could be used as grenade launcher shells after some modification. Captain Liu made a prompt decision and sent out all the grenade launchers in the regiment.

When the Japanese infantry got used to our rifle shooting, suddenly firing a few rounds at the enemy with grenade launchers would definitely disrupt their deployment.

After all, the effective range of a grenade launcher weapon is as high as 500 meters, and the Japanese marching team is so long that we can always find an opportunity to throw the enemy's melon grenades into the crowd, causing great chaos.

Especially last night, Battalion Commander Liao took advantage of the cover of night and mobilized more than a dozen grenade launchers to carry out all-round and continuous bombing on the camp where the Japanese were stationed, leaving the enemy without a moment's peace.

Although a lot of ammunition was consumed, the effect was still good. By the time the Japanese arrived at the Second Regiment's defensive position, more than 300 people had been killed or wounded, while our casualties were less than 20 people.

The good news is that the transport team sent by Commander Li has also arrived, bringing a large amount of weapons and ammunition.

"Captain Liu, my unit is under the command of the commander to deliver a large amount of combat supplies to the Second Regiment. Please check them."

"The commander is so generous this time. It seems that Wuyi County has been conquered. Tell me, what good things have you brought to our regiment this time."

"It's mainly five mortars, 1,500 shells, 20 grenade launchers, 2,000 grenades, 150,000 bullets of various kinds, 2,200 melon grenades, 50 Mauser pistols, 25 Czech light machine guns, 8 Type 92 heavy machine guns, and 300 Type 38 rifles."

"These were all seized in Wuyi County. Oh, and there are also 10,000 packs of compressed biscuits and 3,000 cans of beef."

"Before leaving, the commander specifically instructed the Second Regiment to stop the enemy's reinforcements at all costs. It would take at least three days."

Captain Liu looked at the nearly two thousand Tiger Soldiers under his command. After two supplies, the ammunition was extremely sufficient, and the food was enough for the soldiers to eat for a week. Together with the five mortars specially sent by the commander, they could form an artillery company. A sense of pride arose spontaneously.

He said domineeringly: "Go back and tell the commander to rest assured that with me, Old Liu, and the Second Regiment here, we will never let a single Japanese soldier step foot on our position."

He had complete reasons for saying this and it was not just bragging.

When the transport team arrived, the reconnaissance company had already found out the situation clearly. The Japanese reinforcements this time were a complete garrison battalion of more than 1,100 people.

But after the consumption yesterday, evening and this morning, at least 300 people were killed or wounded, and at most only more than 800 people were left.

At present, the enemy is an exhausted army. Their soldiers were probably made to fall asleep while standing by our small team. Our troops, on the other hand, were well-rested and had the upper hand over the enemy, thus gaining a huge advantage.

Of course, if it were before, the eight hundred Japanese devils would still be a huge force, and the Second Regiment might not be able to defeat them.

But now, after two ammunition replenishments, the average amount of ammunition for each soldier has exceeded 200 rounds, the light machine gun has more than 1,000 rounds, and the heavy machine gun has about 3,000 rounds.

Now we have twice as many troops as the enemy, and our weapons and ammunition are no worse than the enemy's. In addition, we have complete defensive fortifications. It can be said that we have the best of time, place and people.

When the Japanese soldiers from Matsuda's Battalion saw the defensive positions of the Second Regiment, everyone almost cried. It was really not easy at all. They were finally able to fight against the regular troops of the Eighth Route Army.

On Captain Liu's side, after receiving a large amount of material support, he also prepared to fight a head-on positional battle with the enemy.

The Japs still used their old tactics. After their troops were deployed, they used artillery to attack our positions.

However, because the enemy's support force was only a garrison battalion with only one artillery squad and two Type 92 infantry guns, the rest basically relied on a large number of grenade launchers for artillery support.

After the bombardment lasted for about twenty minutes, Captain Qinggu ordered two teams to attack the forward positions of our Second Regiment separately, attempting to find the fire support points of our defensive positions and then destroy them with artillery fire.

The commander of the second battalion of the second regiment was in charge of the battle at the front line. His battalion commander was named Jiang. When he saw the first wave of the Japanese attack through a telescope, he smiled and said:

"Instructor, after so many years, the Japanese still use the same old tactics. They really think our troops are still the same as before, and they have to charge and fight in close combat after firing three shots. I think the Japanese have made a wrong calculation this time."

"Pass on my order. All the people at the frontline positions, as long as the Japanese come into our range, open fire decisively. It doesn't matter even if you miss. Just let the soldiers practice their marksmanship."

Instructor Cao also smiled and said, "Not to mention the Japanese, even we ourselves can't adapt to such a drastic change all at once."

"Two days ago, when our troops received the mission and set out from the base, each soldier had at most 20 bullets and two self-made grenades."

"To be honest, when I learned that our regiment's mission this time was to stop a battalion of the Japanese, I was still very worried. After all, the combat effectiveness of a battalion of the Japanese is very fierce. According to the usual practice, it would be difficult to stop them without three times the force."

"There were only 1800 soldiers in our Second Regiment, while the Japanese on the other side had 1100 soldiers. The difference in strength between the two sides was not big, so this battle was difficult to fight. At that time, I was actually ready to sacrifice myself. Even if I had to fight to the death, I had to complete the task assigned to us by our superiors."

"But now, the regiment commander has added so many heavy weapons to our battalion, and each soldier has almost 200 rounds of ammunition on average, which is more than the Japanese infantry. This time our enemies will have a headache."

In the past, our troops were disdainful of the Japanese tactics, but they were extremely envious of the enemy's weapons and ammunition reserves.

Regimental commanders often sighed: "If my troops had the Japanese's equipment and ammunition, we would definitely beat the Japanese into a pulp."

Now the Second Regiment of the Fifth Division is experiencing this situation, and the soldiers actually have more ammunition than the Japanese.

Because we seized a large amount of ammunition in Wuyi County, in order to stop the Japanese reinforcements, we are in the current situation and are using ammunition to kill the enemy.
