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

Li Yunlong walked out of the air-raid shelter and listened to the relevant intelligence collected by the combat staff at the regiment headquarters:

"Captain, the Japanese sent out 20 bombers this time. According to our intelligence, each one should be carrying more than 800 kilograms of aerial bombs, which adds up to about 16 tons."

"Our defensive positions have been severely damaged, but the core positions have not been used, so they are relatively safe for the time being. The air defense forces have also suffered heavy losses because they fired into the sky to drive away the Japanese bombers."

"The air defense unit just called and said they lost two anti-aircraft machine guns and four modified heavy machine guns. Fortunately, the personnel hid in the anti-artillery holes nearby in time, and only five or six people were injured."

Li Yunlong was heartbroken when he heard that so much had been lost at once. He only had these few valuable things in his hands, and now he had lost two of them. If the Japanese came a few more times, all his belongings would be lost.

Fortunately, we have also conducted corresponding tactical simulations for this situation, and believe that only in this way can we reduce the damage caused by the enemy's large bomber groups to our positions. We have also specifically instructed that the safety of operators must be guaranteed at all costs.

"What are the current losses in the position?"

"Captain, according to the assessment of professional technicians, the damage rate of the frontline positions has reached 40%. Many bunkers and trenches have been filled in, and more than 200 soldiers have been killed or wounded."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong picked up the phone beside him and called the first battalion directly.

"I'm Li Yunlong, looking for your battalion commander Zhang Dabiao."

Zhang Dabiao hurried over to answer the phone, and then discussed the next response strategy with Li Yunlong.

After a while, he put down the phone and said to the instructor:

"The real test is about to begin. No matter what, our battalion must survive this afternoon. We cannot let the Japanese occupy any of our defensive positions. By night, we can use cement to repair the destroyed positions and continue to fight the Japanese tomorrow."

The instructor also sighed and said: "The Japanese planes are really fierce. I wonder when we can have a strong air force to guard our own sky."

Zhang Dabiao also looked into the distance, and then comforted him: "There will be such a day. As long as we work hard from now on, one day..."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. I'll lead the reserve team to go to the first company and take a look. No matter what the cost, we have to hold on."

The Japanese took a full hour to prepare their artillery fire this time, and our positions were hit by thousands of shells. Many front-line positions were directly destroyed. The soldiers of the first battalion could only lie in the ruins and fight the Japanese with the weapons in their hands.

The Sakai Brigade immediately launched a battalion-level infantry attack, attempting to occupy our first line of defense and then use the communication trenches inside the position to occupy other positions.

According to their experience, once the Chinese army's position was breached, a great defeat would follow. They had seen this kind of thing many times and had sufficient experience in it. It was a pity that today they met our brave and fearless Eighth Route Army soldiers.

Squad leader Lao He is a veteran of the independent regiment. When the independent regiment was first formed, he was among the first batch of recruits. The independent regiment has expanded from more than a thousand people to more than ten thousand people now. Basically, every soldier at that time is now a squad leader, and there are many platoon leaders and company commanders.

His squad was the squad leader of the 16th squad of the 3rd platoon of the 1st battalion of the independent regiment. He had 12 soldiers under his command. They were equipped with a Czech light machine gun, two Mauser pistols, a submachine gun and a Big Black Star pistol. The rest were Mauser K3 rifles.

As for why there are sixteen classes, it is mainly because there are more than three hundred people in a company, so it is reasonable to form sixteen classes.

After all, the independent regiment is only a regimental-level combat unit with eight battalions, each battalion has eight companies, each company has four platoons, and each platoon has four squads, which is also for the convenience of command.

The main reason is that the issue of our troop organization has always been the most concerning issue for the Kuomintang government. If the independent regiment is upgraded to an independent brigade, it will attract too much attention. On the contrary, infantry regiments such as the independent regiment are relatively inconspicuous. No matter how powerful they are in fighting, they are only a regiment.

Of course, the total strength of the independent regiment has expanded to more than 10,000 people, so this kind of small matter is not worth mentioning.

In the recent bombing by the Japanese planes and the subsequent artillery attack, two soldiers from the 16th squad of the company were injured and have been carried away for treatment. Now there are only ten soldiers left.

They were responsible for guarding this small position of about ten meters. At least they had to repel the enemy's attack before the reserve troops in the platoon could be replenished.

When a Japanese infantry squad approached our position about 150 meters away, the company commander gave the signal to open fire, and all the light and heavy machine guns in the company opened fire at the same time.

The reason why we arrived so much earlier was mainly because our front-line positions were severely damaged. We no longer dared to wait until the Japanese were within a hundred meters before opening fire, as our positions would be easily broken through by the Japanese.

In fact, at this distance, the probability of hitting the target is very low, whether it is the Japanese veterans or us.

Although these old Japanese soldiers could easily hit targets 300 meters away during training, this was a battlefield with bullets flying everywhere. If one was not careful, one could easily be hit. No one could aim and shoot calmly with a gun.

There is nothing else to do at this time but to output firepower at the fastest speed. No matter how tough the Japanese are, they dare not advance on the battlefield under the hail of bullets, and they can probably only crawl forward slowly.

Squad leader Lao He aimed his Ma Sihuan rifle at a Japanese sergeant and then fired decisively, killing the Japanese soldier. By the way, he also caused a short-term chaos in a Japanese combat unit. After all, the Japanese sergeant was responsible for tactical command. After the killing, at least five or six Japanese soldiers could only attack on their own instincts for a short period of time and could not receive the sergeant's orders at all.

You have to know that not everyone can be a sergeant of the Japanese devils. He has to have served in the army for at least two years, be proficient in the use of various light weapons and grenade launchers, be proficient in assassination techniques, and be able to recognize various flag signals and whistles. He can be considered the core grassroots force of the Japanese devils.

The reason why the Japanese field troops were so powerful at the beginning of the war was because they had a large number of well-trained soldiers. Some of them had even undergone rigorous training for three years or even longer. Each soldier had fired more than 500 rounds of bullets and their shooting skills were extremely accurate.
