I am helping

Chapter 98 Equipped is cool!

Kuroshima Morita's face became extremely ugly, and his lungs were about to explode.

There are more than 1300 cavalry in the Black Island Cavalry Regiment, but now there are less than 500 cavalry left.

Among them are the communication team and the guards with more than 150 cavalry, the disabled second cavalry squadron with more than 150 cavalry, and the mounted artillery squadron with 200 cavalry.

Most of the Black Island Cavalry Regiment has been lost.

Suzuki Tsuneo lifted up the binoculars on his chest and had a panoramic view of the situation on the hillside with just one glance.

"Commander, the Eighth Route Army doesn't seem to be planning to leave. The heavy machine guns are still there, and they are confronting us." Suzuki Changxiong put down the binoculars and said, "Let's call General Shinozuka's air force to blow up the Eighth Route's machine gun positions."

"Call for aviation?" Kuroshima Morita frowned, "Do we have to rely on aviation to wash away the shame of the Kuroshima Cavalry Regiment?"

"But the eight-way machine gun fire is too fierce." Suzuki Changxiong said, "Our cavalry simply can't charge up."

"Shut up!" Kuroshima Morita yelled angrily, "Suzuki-kun, do you want me to become a joke of the imperial military?"

Suzuki Changxiong quickly nodded: "Hi!"

……

At the same time, a new group of machine guns was on the position.

Li Yunlong looked at the horses and the corpses of the Japanese soldiers all over the ground, and his mentality and emotions were stable.

He even struck a match and lit an Old Knife cigarette. After taking a puff, he clamped the index and middle fingers of his right hand.

"Did you see that?" Li Yunlong shouted to the soldiers, "What the hell are the elites, I'm fighting the elites."

"More than 80 light and heavy machine guns are placed on the defense line less than 400 meters away. No matter how many devil cavalry come, it will not work!"

"Hurry up to replenish my ammunition, and fill me with ammunition chains, magazines, and springboard bullets!"

The soldiers looked up at the slaughterhouse-like battlefield, and their mouths were about to grin.

This battle was fought so happily, everyone was holding a machine gun, watching the devil's cavalry fall crazily under the rain of bullets, I have to say, it's not too exciting.

Although it is very cool to play, the consumption of machine gun bullets is also extremely astonishing.

Li Yunlong alone used the Maxim heavy machine gun to knock out a full three ammunition belts, one belt is 300 rounds of machine gun ammunition, and Li Yunlong took it after the machine gunner fired for a while. 1000 rounds of machine gun ammunition were consumed.

In just such a short period of time, more than 80 light and heavy machine guns fired at least 7 rounds of machine gun ammunition, which is an astonishing consumption!
Right now the entire Eighth Route Army is Li Yunlong who can afford such a rich battle, not even the brigade commander.

Because apart from the new regiment, these regiments of the 386 brigade, even the two main regiments 771 and 772, don't have much ammunition, let alone the new second regiment and the independent regiment, which are the backbone regiments.

Of course, the New Second Regiment would not be able to withstand the charge of the Devil Cavalry a few more times, because Li Yunlong only prepared 20 rounds of machine gun ammunition.

However, fortunately, this guy has already killed the main force of the Black Island Cavalry Regiment, and there are not many devil cavalry left.

The Black Island Cavalry Regiment is at most capable of organizing such a charge.

Political commissar Zhao Gang came to Li Yunlong with a sniper rifle and said, "Old Li, the devil hasn't left yet."

"I see." Li Yunlong put down his binoculars and said, "This old devil, Hei Dao, must be waiting for the artillery from behind to come up and reorganize the attack."

"Then what should we do now?" Zhao Gang said, "Should we retreat?"

"Retreat?" Li Yunlong said, "There are about 300 cavalry around Hei Dao. Once we retreat, the old devil Hei Dao will definitely come up. The 300 cavalry in our hands may not be the opponent of the devil cavalry. We may be defeated by then." It's us."

"But once the devil artillery comes up." Zhao Gang said, "Our machine gun position will become a living target."

"Who said that?" Li Yunlong pouted at Wang Chengzhu's mortar position, "Is my artillery company just for nothing?"

In this battle, Li Yunlong did not bring out the 75 field artillery, but all 16 mortars and the Type [-] infantry artillery were brought.

Just attacking the impact of the devil cavalry, Li Yunlong never gave the order to fire, but was waiting for the devil to set up the mortar position.

"I'm sorry, but my concern is messed up." Zhao Gang smiled apologetically, "Forget about our artillery company."

……

About ten minutes later, the mounted artillery squadron of the Black Island United was long overdue.

There was no way around this. In addition to carrying people, the horses of the cavalry squadron had to carry cannon shells and mortars.

The Mounted Artillery Squadron is equipped with 8 Type 90 [-]mm mortars, also known as small steel guns.

Compared with the M2 light mortar equipped by the new regiment, the Type 172.5 mortar is more powerful, but it is also relatively cumbersome, and the whole gun weighs [-] kg.

"Squad leader!" Masao Yano, the captain of the mounted artillery squadron, rode his horse and ran to Kuroshima Morita and paused.

Looking at the hillside in front of him, the corpses of Japanese cavalrymen and war horses were lying there, and he couldn't help being stunned.

Kuroshima Morita couldn't wait any longer: "Yano-kun, you came just in time, please build artillery positions immediately, and blow up the machine gun positions of the eight routes for me."

"Hi!" Masao Yano picked up the binoculars and observed for a while, then nodded quickly.

Returning to the position of the cavalry squadron, Masao Yano immediately rode his horse back to the position of the cavalry squadron, waved his hand and said, "Hey Gu, build a mortar position immediately!"

The devils of the cavalry squadron quickly got off their horses and began to build mortar positions. The gunners unloaded the shell boxes from the horses.

The Type 3 mortar is divided into three parts: a square bottom plate, a tripod mount and a barrel. It takes about [-] minutes to build.

Since the devil's mortar position was behind the devil's cavalry formation, the observation gunners of the new artillery company did not see the position of the devil's artillery position.

Eight 8-style mortars were lined up, and the shooting elements had been adjusted. The devil's artillery held mortar shells in their hands, waiting for the test firing order.

"Wait!" Kuroshima Morita rode over and shouted, "Use chemical bombs!"

"Nani?" Masao Yano and the artillerymen looked at Kuroshima Morita in astonishment.

The Japanese army generally used gas bombs as a killer weapon in combat. They were weapons used to turn the tables when they couldn't beat them. It was very rare to launch gas bombs as soon as they came up.

The poison gas bombs used by the Japanese army are mainly divided into four types, green bombs, red bombs, yellow bombs, and tea bombs.

Green bombs, commonly known as tear gas bombs, are the least powerful and harmful gas bombs.

Red bomb, this kind of bomb releases a poisonous gas that strongly stimulates the respiratory organs, commonly known as a sneeze bomb.

Yellow bullets, which are erosive gas bombs, can cause skin and mucous membranes to ulcerate after use.

Tea bombs, this kind of poisonous gas is filled with highly poisonous and strong gas, which will directly cause the person who inhales the poisonous gas to suffer from heart failure and die directly.

In real history, Brigadier Chen was poisoned by devils twice.

In response to the Japanese army's poison gas bomb tactics, the Eighth Route Army had special chemical defense cadres who continued to organize soldiers to carry out anti-gas training and prepared anti-gas equipment as best they could.

For example, towels and garlic are necessary for every Eighth Route Army in combat.

"Baga, what are you still doing?" Kuroshima Morita frowned.

Kuroshima Morita was also caught off guard by Balu.

Even if the machine gun position of the Eighth Route is plowed with artillery fire, ordinary shells can destroy part of the firepower of the Eighth Route's machine guns, but they cannot destroy all of them.

Even if the Japanese cavalry could charge up to the Eighth Route Army's position, the casualties would certainly not be small. The Black Island Cavalry Regiment has lost more than half of its cavalry, and there is no more cavalry to lose.

But the use of poison gas bombs is different, it can directly make all eight groups lose their combat effectiveness instantly.

Not only can the cavalry go straight up to harvest the heads of eight groups, but they can also seize a large number of machine guns and bullets.

"Hi!" Masao Yano hurriedly nodded to Kuroshima Morita, then turned to the artillerymen and said, "Change to chemical bombs, haha!"

The devil artillery immediately unloaded the ammunition box engraved with the skull mark from the horse's back, and carried the ammunition box behind the mortar.

The devil's deputy gunner immediately put the original mortar shells into the ammunition box, pried open the ammunition box containing the gas bombs, and took the gas bombs out of the ammunition box.

After a while, all gun positions were ready.

"Fire the cannon!" As the flag commander suddenly put down the small flag in his hand, the devil gunner put the gas bomb in his hand into the barrel.

With a muffled bang, the gas bomb rushed out of the gun barrel and soared into the air, arcing across the sky, and smashed into a new group of machine gun positions with a sharp whistling sound.

At the same time, on the artillery position of the new regiment, listening to the screaming sound of shells darting through the air, Li Yunlong shouted loudly: "Hidden, defend against the artillery!"

The soldiers immediately lay down on the spot to defend against the artillery. The reason why the soldiers were not afraid was because they would not be able to withstand a few shells, and their own mortars would return the color to the Devils artillery positions.

The next moment, the mortar shell fell on the machine gun position of the new group, and exploded with a bang bang bang.

Contrary to the expectations of the soldiers, it was not mortar shells that fell.

Seeing the red gas spreading, Li Yunlong's face changed, and he shouted loudly: "No, it's poisonous gas, put on a gas mask!"

Following his order, the soldiers of the new regiment responded instantly, and the hundreds of people who were lying on the ground all reached for the gas masks beside them.

Not the kind of gas mask made by wet towels and garlic, but the gas mask seized from the devils, which has excellent anti-virus effect.

Needless to say, the veterans, the whole process of wearing the gas masks was calm and easy, and the recruits did not panic. They put on the gas masks in an orderly manner, and no soldiers snatched the gas masks.

As for how to deal with the devils after launching the poison gas bombs, they have practiced this set of actions countless times.

Very ripe.

Only a few dozen soldiers at the impact point of the gas bombs inhaled a small amount of poison gas, most of the soldiers did not inhale poison gas.

The Devil Artillery fired red bullets this time, and only inhaled a small amount of poisonous gas. Although it was not fatal, it could make people vomit, have difficulty breathing, and thus lose their fighting ability.

By the time the second wave of gas bombs fell and exploded, all the soldiers had already put on gas masks.

Through the transparent mirror of the gas mask, watching the red poisonous gas spread on the machine gun position, the soldiers were not afraid at all, but were a little excited.

The devil cavalry came to greet us with machine guns, and the devil fired gas bombs and we had gas masks.

It feels good to be equipped!
