Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 272: Tongdeng meat grinder (11)
The Iio team is rushing to support its colleagues. Unexpectedly, the Tajima team was completely destroyed at this time. Even Sergeant Fukuda, who left the team and wanted to return to report, was not spared in the end. Unsuspectingly, the Iio team ran into the SS forward who was making a full assault.
At the moment the two armies met, the soldiers on both sides were stunned. The distance between each other was so close that they could see the sweat on each other's face clearly. The narrow road meets, the short-handed combat, the fight takes place in a flash. Afterwards, no one could tell which side was the first to move the hand, but the evidence afterwards mostly showed that it should be the German side.
At the forefront are the three infantry squads in the second platoon of the Guard Brigade. They are based on squads and marched along the road in a standard V-shaped battle formation. The remaining rifle squad in the second row is on the back. A machine gun fire point was set up on the hillside of the platoon to provide fire cover for the advancement of this platoon comrade. When the figure of the Japanese army was found on the top of the road slope, the soldiers on both sides were very close, and the machine gunner at the rear was worried that he might accidentally injure his own person, so he did not fire.
But the machine gunners in the two lead infantry squad did not have such concerns. The SS machine gunner who reacted from his surprise did not hesitate to pull the trigger in his hand, and a tongue of flame swept across the queue of the Iio squad. The Japanese officers and soldiers standing in the front row suddenly turned on their backs and were knocked down. Suddenly a **** and cruel close-range melee broke out. The Japanese and German soldiers each held their weapons and fired at each other at a distance of five or six meters. Then the soldiers who survived the first round of shooting had no time to pull the bolts and reload the bullets. , The rifle with a good bayonet directly rushed towards the enemy, and the two fierce infantry units strangled face to face.
A machine gunner survived in the front of the Japanese squad. After being attacked, he responded quickly with a crooked handle and shot at the Germans. He immediately knocked down several SS soldiers, but he had not waited for him to make With even greater results, the 11-year machine gun jammed without warning.
The eleven-year machine gun was originally not a weapon suitable for shooting in sports because of the strange design of the ammunition supply mechanism. Although the Japanese army equipped the heat sink of the machine gun with a leather sheath that was easy to hold, it was only for After shooting for a long time, it is convenient for the machine gunner to move with the machine gun. To protect its hands from being scalded by the hot heat sink, it is not for the machine gunner to shoot.
This machine gun has been shot for a long time before, and it has fired hundreds of bullets. It is reasonable to clean the machine gun immediately. But the fighting was raging before, and there was no condition and time to do this. The machine gunner had already paid attention to this. Instead of filling the weird magazine with bullets, he only filled two five-round magazines, and prepared to wait for the shooting position before filling it. As a result, only six or seven bullets were fired, and the shell was stuck in the barrel and could not be extracted.
"How can it be repaired!" Based on past experience, the machine gunner judged that it was a shell failure. This is not a problem that can be eliminated in a short while. Moreover, being on the battlefield did not allow him to be distracted for a while, and immediately there was a SS soldier who had been eyeing him a long time ago, rushing over with his bayonet, and facing him with a fierce stab. In desperation, the Japanese machine gunner could only use a heavy and crooked sub-machine gun to flick left and right. It was a pity that this scrap metal was really ineffective at this time. In the end, the defense was not enough to be stabbed in the ribs by the opponent and immediately clutched. The wound fell to the side of the highway.
The Japanese army's stab technique is the best in Asia, and it claims that even if it is close to the European powerhouses, it will not fall behind. The Japanese Army refers to bayonet art as Gundo. The earliest bayonet technique originated from the French army. At that time, the French sergeant Jack Luo, who was hired by the Japanese army as a military gymnastics instructor, imparted the modern bayonet technique of the French army to the Japanese army. Then the Japanese army gathered his own domestic Some of the martial arts genres, such as the Treasure House, which is famous for its spear skills, eventually developed its own bayonet tactics.
The Japanese army incorporated it into the army's swordsmanship teaching model, becoming a combat technology that all Japanese infantry must be proficient in, and it has been highly praised by the Japanese military. Based on the consideration of saving war materials, the bayonet, a cheap cold weapon, has become the most commonly used combat weapon in the Japanese army, and is used to attack some enemy troops who are not very determined to fight. It is also used to break through and occupy enemy positions. 】
On the Chinese battlefield, some poorly trained Chinese troops are extremely afraid of the bayonet charge of the Japanese army, because many of those soldiers have not received any combat training, and most of them are just ordinary people who have just learned to shoot. Only a part of the Chinese local army has undergone strict cold weapon training. You can use broadswords and spears to engage in close confrontations with the Japanese army. The problem is that when encountering such a poorly equipped enemy, the Japanese army will give full play to its firepower and artillery advantage, so that the opponent holding the broadsword cannot get close at all. Ten times the price can be exchanged for the life of a Japanese soldier.
But today. The Japanese army encountered a tough opponent just like them. The German Army also highly respected individual combat techniques. The most popular thing in the German army was fencing and bayonet tutorials. Young soldiers liked this intuitive frontal confrontation very much. Even the cold weapon duel became a fashion in private, with the scars of the duel on his body, which was regarded as a proof of manhood, but because of the military regulations, this behavior was finally strictly prohibited.
German soldiers who love sports and competition have a talent for hand-to-hand combat in their blood. Their ancestors once relied on crude weapons to cross the Black Forest. The brave Teutonic knights never feared the enemy. Fight head-on. Although the 98K rifle suffers a bit in length, the Germans have played their own advantages. Their physical fitness is stronger than those of the Japanese soldiers in all aspects. The heavy spurs and shifts have made those short ones. The opponent's movements are almost irresistible, and he will be pierced in the chest if he is not paying attention.
Some SS soldiers who killed the red eye even threw away their rifles, took out the individual combat axe specially equipped by the guard brigade from the back, and approached the Japanese bayonet to engage in melee combat. Under the steel axe blade, the 38-type rifle of the Japanese army would even be chopped in two on the spot. In the hands of some strong SS, even the steel helmet worn by the Japanese army can be split in half.
This single-edged hand axe, originally used by soldiers to cut roads in the jungle, is said to be drawn from a sketch drawn by the head of state. Later, the sketch was collected by Himmler and was created by someone in order to test use in the mountain jungle. As a result, it was allotted to the Tomahawk squadron who was going to Southeast Asia. It became the basic equipment of the infantry in the squad, which unexpectedly made this squadron deserve its nickname. In the end, the SS soldiers discovered that this weapon is not only fierce in appearance, but also effective in actual use. It can not only chop vines and break branches to cut roads, but also can be used as an infantry shovel when combined with a specially distributed axe cover. The love and welcome of the grassroots infantry in the Guard Brigade.
In addition to this terrible melee weapon, the SS soldiers carry self-purchased self-defense weapons like the army, and the squad leaders and deputy squad leaders are equipped with submachine guns. Gunshots continued to sound throughout the melee battlefield, and the squad leader’s submachine gun firing almost never stopped since the battle began. When the following troops of the Guard Brigade arrived on the scene, the cruel hand-to-hand combat had already come to an end.
When the battle broke out, the Iio squad had thirty-nine officers and soldiers remaining since the captain. All of them were killed on this highway in just two minutes. This shows how **** the battle was at that time. It was tragic. From the beginning to the end, no Japanese soldiers abandoned their comrades to escape. At the same time, they also caused quite serious casualties to one row after another. In the three infantry squads, only four soldiers were uninjured. Eleven soldiers were killed on the spot. Most of the remaining wounded had various puncture wounds, and seven of them were seriously injured. If they cannot be rescued in time, they will probably not see the sunrise the next day.
Lieutenant Iio was overturned by a machine gun in the first place, but he became the last Japanese soldier in the team. At that time, the machine gun bullet smashed the ensign’s spine, immediately below the neck. Losing all consciousness, Iio could only lie there in despair, watching his soldiers fall one by one, but unable to make any movements or instructions. In the end, a SS soldier inspecting the battlefield found this Japanese officer who was able to blink his eyes. Apart from anything else, he raised his rifle and used a bayonet to end the life of the ensign, and he also took away the captain's saber.
The Japanese side did special research afterwards. After Lu Shi graduated, Iio was sent to Germany to study for two years. He knew the German army very well. At that time, he should be able to recognize his opponent easily, but unfortunately because His throat was wounded, and he couldn't even speak a syllable until he died, otherwise the young officer would use his fluent German to communicate with each other, and maybe he could save his life. , It's a pity that Lieutenant Iio has bad luck, and in the end he only got a tragic ending of defeat and death.
After this **** close battle, even though the second row in a row won the final victory~IndoMTL.com~, they also suffered serious losses. As the core company of the assault, Yi company had lost the ability to continue the assault, so the second infantry company at the back of the company reached the forward position, took over the position of the core company of the company, and continued to attack in the same direction.
At this moment, the German squad rushing to the forefront can clearly see the Japanese troops gathering on the side of the road. They are the remnants of the 9th Battalion and the Morimoto Battalion’s direct-affiliated squad. The military tent stood conspicuously beside the road, and the Hinomaru flag waving in the breeze on the top of the tent became an excellent target.
"That should be the enemy's command organization!" The squad leader who led the team yelled excitedly, but before he could give the next order, the bullet from the Japanese position had fallen on his feet side. The squad leader hurriedly took his men away from the highway to find concealment. While arranging for the machine gun team in the squad to launch a counterattack, he reported the enemy situation to the company commander through the walkie-talkie and requested fire cover.
Looking for a monthly pass, I fell off the rankings, I have a headache, I didn't pay attention to cooling down last night, and I caught a cold again. I hope it will be better tomorrow.
