Red Alert 1895

Chapter 43 – Annihilation (On)

“Soldiers, the artillery of the Japanese army has been completely annihilated, everyone beat me up!” Wang Guorui shouted.

Wang Guorui ordered everyone to take the initiative to charge this time, and this time the Japanese army must be wiped out. As long as the Japanese army has no artillery, it is impossible for them to be their opponents with their firepower. Not to mention light machine guns in this era, even Maxine is a scarce commodity. So the Japanese army had no artillery, which meant that they had no weapons to cover and suppress Wang Guorui’s army. If they didn’t take advantage of this time to annihilate the opponent, when would they wait! If we fight well this time, it will be a battle of annihilation!

“The artillery advances, ready for artillery suppression and cover!” Chen Liyan, the artillery regiment commander, shouted.

Soon, more than a dozen artillery pieces began to advance first, and were ready to advance under the protection of a battalion of infantry. The combat method this time can be completely in accordance with the textbook Wang Guorui gave them, the artillery suppresses, the infantry charges, that’s all. Anyway, they didn’t suppress the firepower. If they didn’t deal with them now, it would be too late.

“Captain, the Chinese army has already advanced, should we retreat? We have no artillery, and we will suffer a lot if we continue to fight like this!” said a staff officer.

Suzuki Matsutake also had a toothache. From the perspective of a qualified officer, he must hurry up and retreat at this time, otherwise his entire wing would be in danger of being destroyed. But if he retreats at this time, his future will be completely ruined. Faced with the voluntary retreat of the Chinese army, under the atmosphere of discrimination against the Chinese army, they are just a negative example to be labeled as incompetent generals. No matter which country it is, once it becomes a negative teaching material, its future will be completely ruined. If he retreats at that time, will his superiors understand? I don’t have artillery as a cover to suppress, but the bureaucrats above may not understand it!

“Wait! Let’s persevere, and if it doesn’t work, we will retreat! Maybe we can support the tactical guidance later!” Suzuki Matsutake said.

Suzuki Matsutake didn’t know, but his decision ruined the fate of the entire alliance. According to the later inference, if he can retreat in time, the loss may not be too great. But it was precisely because he was worried about his future that the entire alliance was destroyed.

“Get ready! Put sandbags!” Hu Wei shouted.

The engineering soldiers quickly brought sandbags one by one, and then began to build simple fortifications, preparing to use them as a springboard for continued attacks. The artillery also began to prepare for the next round of fire suppression, so that the infantry could charge smoothly. And everything is being prepared in an orderly manner, obviously having a lot of exercise experience.

“The artillery is ready!” Chen Liyan shouted.

“Okay, Hu Wei, now you are in command!” Wang Guorui said.

“Yes!” Hu Wei shouted.

Hu Wei saw that the Japanese soldiers in the distance were also carrying sandbags to build fortifications, and they were also preparing for a tenacious resistance. And Hu Wei sneered, obviously not paying attention to them.

“Hmph, without artillery, why are you fighting us?” Hu Wei snorted coldly.

“Suppression!” Hu Wei shouted.

“Boom boom boom boom…”

One after another, the shells were shot out of the barrel again, and fell along a parabola in front of the Japanese position. Their goal is not to kill how many Japanese troops, but to suppress the Japanese troops and prevent them from effectively counterattacking. This will help your troops charge.

“Third Regiment, it’s your turn this time, prepare to attack!” Hu Wei said.

“Yes!” shouted Zhao Xi, head of the third regiment.

Zhao Xi, the head of the third regiment, immediately ordered his subordinate soldiers to prepare, and then ready to attack at any time.

“Everyone listen to the platoon leader around you. Don’t rush too fast, as long as your speed is stable. If you rush too fast, you will be killed by your own artillery fire. If you are killed by your own artillery fire, that is really I was wronged!” Zhao Xi said.

At this time, the benefits of having Red Police soldiers are reflected here. This kind of infantry coordination is a profound knowledge, and ordinary soldiers cannot do it without a long period of training. But now that there are red police soldiers serving as the squad leader, they can be ready to follow the squad leader at any time, so as to avoid running too fast or too slow, and rush to the enemy just right. The highest level of infantry coordination is that the artillery fire has just stopped, and the muzzle of the infantry has already reached the enemy’s forehead. Other natural soldiers may not be able to do so well, but under the leadership of the Red Police soldiers, even if the artillery coordination is not perfect, they can still score more than 85 points.

“The third regiment, follow me!” Zhao Xi shouted.

Zhao Xi also personally followed the troops, but he was not on the front line, but in the middle. This will ensure a certain level of security and boost morale.

“They’re coming! Hold on!” Suzuki Matsutake shouted.

“Boom boom boom boom…”

The artillery fire under Wang Guorui was still bombarding violently, and the Japanese army was suppressed and could not raise their heads at all.

“Captain, our soldiers can’t raise their heads! The enemy’s cannon fodder is too fierce, and we don’t have artillery, so we can’t counterattack!” Suzuki Matsutake’s staff officer said.

Suzuki Matsutake hit the wall fiercely, obviously very helpless with this result. Suzuki Matsutake really doubts that he came here because he made a mistake. Originally, I wanted to open up the country and expand the territory, and then made a contribution to expanding the territory. But now I found that this credit is not easy to get, but it is an extremely hard iron plate, and I kicked it on the iron plate. These enemy troops are remarkable in terms of weapons and equipment, as well as their training level. Although he could also see that the opponent was somewhat inexperienced, the advantage in weapons greatly made up for it. People are bullying you with weapons, what can you do!

“Hold it! Be sure to hold it up for me. I have already asked for tactical guidance from the rear. You just need to hold it up and they will be there!” Suzuki Matsutake shouted.

“Stop suppressing the artillery fire!” Chen Liyan, the artillery regiment commander, said.

The artillery quickly stopped suppressing artillery fire, because their infantry comrades were ready to rush to the front. If they still suppressed artillery fire at this time, they might hurt their own people. As for the fact that the infantry put their guns on the opponent’s head as soon as the artillery fire stopped, this only exists in theory, and it is impossible in practice. Therefore, Chen Liyan took the initiative to stop the artillery fire when his infantry was still more than 200 meters away from the Japanese position, fearing that he would accidentally injure his own people.

“The Chinese artillery has stopped, everyone fight back!” Suzuki Matsutake shouted.

But Zhao Xi, the head of the third regiment, snorted coldly: “Do you think we can do this? Don’t think that we have no way to suppress you if we leave the cannon.”

“The Maxine’s electric gun is ready to suppress the cover, and the grenadier is ready to fire to suppress the Japanese army again!” Zhao Xi said.

The machine gun companies of the battalions and the so-called artillery companies are also preparing to continue to use machine guns and grenades to suppress the Japanese army. These machine guns and grenades also moved forward with the troops, preparing for the second suppression after the artillery fire suppression ended, so as to cover the infantry charge.

“Da da da da da…”

The Maxine machine gun began to shoot out tongues of flame, and the intensive firepower began to suppress the Japanese army again, and then the grenadiers also started firing grenades according to the previous training, bombing the Japanese army. Although the grenade is less powerful and has a smaller killing radius, it is better than safety and is not afraid of too many accidental injuries.

“Captain, their machine guns and small cannons are too powerful, we still can’t hold our heads up!” the Japanese army staff officer cried.

At this time, Suzuki Matsutake also noticed that he might be in danger this time. With such a powerful firepower, I originally thought that the enemy’s artillery suppression was over, and I should be able to resist. But people don’t like you at all. The troops on the front line don’t have any weapons that can be used as counterattacks, and the enemy’s machine guns make them unable to raise their heads, and the grenades make them feel very painful.

“Grenade? Where’s the grenade!” Suzuki Matsutake shouted.

Suzuki Matsutake thought of a weapon at this time, and that was the grenade. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com If they can have grenades at this time, that would be great! Even if you can’t raise your head, you can throw it with a grenade, and then kill the enemy. But now, it seems that they really don’t have grenades!

“Captain, we didn’t prepare grenades at all when we came to Taiwan this time! We never thought that grenades could actually be used at this time.” The staff officer smiled wryly.

The revival of the grenade was during the Russo-Japanese War, but now almost all the armies of the world have almost eliminated the weapon of the grenade, so the Japanese army has no grenade at all now! So under the cover of Wang Guorui’s grenadier and machine gun, they could only watch as Wang Guorui’s army charged more and more in front of them.

“Use the semaphore, let the artillery advance 500 meters, and then use the artillery fire to extend the bombing!” Zhao Xi said.

“The artillery advanced 500 meters, and the artillery fire extended!” Chen Liyan said.

Following Chen Liyan’s order, the artillery immediately commanded the military dogs responsible for pulling the artillery to advance 500 meters, and then stopped again to prepare for the artillery fire extension.

“Boom boom boom boom…”

The artillery fire roared again, and the Japanese army was really out of luck this time. They thought they could fight back when the enemy’s artillery cover ended, but now it seemed that they had grenadiers and machine guns, and they couldn’t resist at all. The infantry covered the artillery and advanced 500 meters, so that the artillery fire could extend to the depths of their defensive position, and the entire defensive position was exposed to Wang Guorui’s artillery fire. But the Japanese army is really going to die this time. How can human flesh and blood be the opponent of cannonballs?
