At this moment, the newly constructed artillery position of the Japanese was in a mess. In the previous firing, dozens of the hundreds of Japanese artillery squadrons were wiped out.
The M2 Browning Heavy Machine Gun's normal bullets had a range of about 2,500 meters, and the effective range was 1,000 meters.
At a distance of 600 meters, the lethality was definitely very high.
"Da da da…"
The sound of firecrackers exploding was like a nightmare to the Japanese infantry artillery squadron.
Although it was just a machine gun firing, it had a firing rate of 450 to 550 rounds per minute. It had the advantages of strong firepower, stable trajectory, and extremely long range.
Their accuracy was very high, and it could be said that they had turned the Japanese's camp into hell.
"Left side... yes... a little more..."
The gunner fed the bullets while providing the machine gunner with a target.
The M2 Browning heavy machine gun with the sniper scope was even more powerful. The Browning's original advantage was its stable trajectory, and with the sniper scope, it had the accuracy of a rifle.
The sudden rain of bullets turned the artillery positions that had yet to be set up into a sieve. For a moment, the artillery positions were in chaos.
When the Japanese artillery position was attacked, he immediately lay on the ground, but the fierce bullets kept shooting in front of him, making it impossible for him to raise his head.
"Baka, lie down and dodge the bullets. Requesting infantry fire support.”
Artillery had too few means to fight back. Once they were ambushed, they would not be able to withstand the enemy's firepower.
The Browning heavy machine gun's firing speed was especially shocking. The enemy was still looking down from above, catching them off guard.
At this time, the Japanese soldiers were at their strongest during World War II. After the field troops were attacked, they could find the target within a few seconds and fight back.
Therefore, the first thing an artillery unit would do when attacked was to request for infantry fire support.
This was because they could quickly identify the enemy's shooting position. Coupled with their accurate marksmanship, they could quickly kill the enemy who ambushed them.
"Baka, you bunch of cowards, stand up and fire back with your cannons.”Seeing that his subordinates, who were not hit by the bullets at all, were still lying on the ground and did not dare to show their heads, the squadron leader was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
"Ha Yi!" A few soldiers in the distance heard the captain's words and immediately ran towards an infantry cannon.
"You still want to fight back?" Zhou Weiguo, who was observing, immediately pulled the trigger.
"Bang, bang!" With two sounds, two Japanese soldiers who were operating the infantry cannon were shot in the head.
The Japanese who was adjusting the coordinates had half of his head cut off, and the other one lay down with his hand on his neck.
When the Japanese squadron leader saw this, his expression changed drastically, especially when he saw the tragic death makeup. A feeling of fear and panic enveloped his heart. Looking at the two corpses, it was the first time he felt that death was so close to him.
"Be careful of the opponent's sharpshooter."
This time, the Japanese soldiers did not dare to raise their heads, afraid to follow in the footsteps of the two people just now.
The dense rain of bullets hit the Japanese artillery squadron. These Japanese artillery with only rifles were unable to fight back. They could only lie on the ground and beg for the protection of Amaterasu God.
The situation of the artillery position was quickly discovered by Colonel Yamashita, who was commanding from the rear. The exasperated Colonel Yamashita was unable to provide support immediately.
"Your Excellency, we must let the infantry cover the artillery squadron, or else the artillery squadron will be completely annihilated.”The chief of staff could not help but suggest.
"Baka, that idiot. If we let the infantry launch a feint attack to cover the retreat of the artillery squadron, we will suffer huge losses.”Colonel Yamashita could not help but frown.
"Of course there will be losses, but we can't let the artillery fall into danger because of the huge losses. Otherwise, the subsequent battles won't be easy.”The chief of staff analyzed the situation.
As a quasi-senior officer, he naturally considered the entire situation. He could not give up the entire game of chess just because of a little loss.
"Baka, this idiot, get the artillery to withdraw later and kill this idiot on the spot.”The furious Colonel Yamashita ordered.
"Hey!" the chief of staff replied. At the same time, he sympathized with the squadron leader.
Not long after, Zhou Weiguo saw through the binoculars that a squadron of Japanese soldiers had split up into a scattered formation under the command of an officer and were attacking them.
"Your reaction is fast enough. I thought it would take a while.”Zhou Weiguo said unhappily.
If he had been any later, he was confident that he could have uprooted the artillery position.
"Regiment Commander, what should we do now? The Japanese are attacking.”Xu Hu also frowned and asked.
"Don't worry, these Japanese are only here to support the artillery. As long as the artillery retreats, the infantry will retreat and won't bother us.”Zhou Weiguo comforted him.
As they spoke, the Japanese soldiers fired even more concentrated firepower at the city wall. Type 92 heavy machine guns joined the battlefield one after another.
The dense rain of bullets sent rocks flying everywhere on the city wall. A few rocks almost hit Zhou Weiguo's face.
"Machine Gunner, are you blind? Hurry up and knock out the Japanese's machine gun.”Zhou Weiguo, who was hiding behind cover, could not help but shout.
"Oh!" The machine gunner responded honestly, turned his muzzle, and fired directly at the Japanese's Type 92 machine gun.
"Da da!"
"Da da!"
Two consecutive rounds of accurate shots directly knocked out the Japanese Machine Gunner.
