Heroes of the War of Resistance

Just as Takeda was thinking about the adjutant's suggestion, the convoy that had driven out of the city to reinforce earlier also arrived at the ambush circle set up by Xu Sandao.This location is not too far from the railway line, and not too far from Zaozhuang City.

Generally speaking, when choosing an ambush position, Hu Biao also fully considered the distance.It is too close to the railway, and the little devil in charge of reinforcements may get off the train early and start reinforcements on foot.Too close to the city, the little devil might shrink back.

The current position should be just right. It can be heard and seen by the little devils stationed in Zaozhuang, but it can't send troops for reinforcements in a short time.As for the railway, Hu Biao only needs to deal with the little devils stationed along the railway.

The Japanese automobile brigade in charge of reinforcements saw that the closer they were to the railway line, the clearer the gunshots and explosions they heard, and they also realized that fierce fighting was taking place on the railway side.The little devil who was in charge of driving was also stepping on the accelerator harder.

Although the little devil speculated that the anti-Japanese troops who attacked the military columns should send troops to stop them.But they drove all the way, and they didn't find anything unusual.Moreover, they are still some distance away from the railway line, and they may not have entered the enemy's blocking position yet!

At this moment, Xu Sandao also sneered when he saw the convoy of little devils entering the range of the explosion and artillery fire: "You guys, listen to my password, three, two, one, detonate!"

The few blasters squatting not far from Xu Sandao listened carefully to Xu Sandao's orders.When the detonation order was issued, everyone pressed the detonation button at the same time, and the road suddenly exploded, and the car was blown up and overturned by the explosion.

Countless little devils, shrouded in panic by the explosion, escaped from the exploded car, and the little devils sitting on top also jumped out of the car with hands and feet.For them, staying in the car at this time will become more dangerous.

The little devils who had just escaped the attack of the road bomb and had not yet had time to catch their breath saw the fierce artillery fire roaring from the sky.From mortars to mountain cannons, grenade launchers with shorter distances hit the sky and covered the sky.

Such fierce artillery fire made the little devil who survived the explosion couldn't help screaming: "Baga! How is this possible? Damn it! Who ambushed us? How did the enemy arrange it with so many artillery pieces!"

No matter how much they wanted to break their heads, they would never have imagined that there would be so many artillery fires erected near the roads they often patrol.How can a large army not be detected when they enter the defense zone under their control?

When many little devils were dying, they were still complaining about what the super high school was eating, and what their patrol troops were eating.Why did they have no idea why such a large-scale attack force entered their defense zone!

As unbelievable as these little devils, it was Takeda Colonel standing helplessly on the city wall.Hearing the explosions and heavy artillery fire from outside the city, Takeda had guessed what would happen to the reinforcements.

He leaned on the city wall and said with red eyes: "Why! How is this possible? What is going on? What is our extra-high school for? Such a fierce artillery fire is at least one of the main divisions of **!"

Colonel Takeda, who can probably judge the size of the attacking force through the intensity of artillery fire, finds it hard to believe how a division of anti-Japanese troops entered his defense zone.Are the garrison troops in the surrounding towns eating shit?

Chapter List Chapter [-] National Enmity and Family Enmity

In order to win the Battle of Xuzhou, the main force of the Japanese army besieged Taierzhuang with all their strength. During the march, they surrounded or drove away the defenders in the counties along the way.Only a small number of rebels composed of routs fled into the mountains to temporarily avoid the front of the Japanese army.

When sending troops to take over the occupied cities, the Japanese army still had some understanding of the anti-Japanese armed forces in the territory.Most of the main force of the large number of anti-Japanese troops will not stay in the Japanese-controlled area, and then retreat to a relatively safe rear.

It is very good for the anti-Japanese armed forces staying behind the enemy to have a regiment-level scale.Most of the anti-Japanese armed forces exist in the form of guerrillas.For the Japanese garrison that controls the county, it does not pose a great threat.

It was precisely because of the understanding of the controlled area that the Japanese troops stationed in Zaozhuang dared to divide their troops to station along the railway.Even if the bunkers were built along the railway line and only a small team of defenders was stationed, the Japanese army still felt very safe.

If you want to capture this kind of fortress-like bunker, you will become extremely confused with the weapons and equipment armed with resistance.The Canadian and Japanese troops have deployed security troops around, and the nearby troops will rush to reinforce in a short time when the gunshots sound.

Without the anti-Japanese armed forces with large-caliber artillery, it is difficult to capture the bunkers built by the Japanese army.Relying on the terrain and solid advantages of the bunker, a small Japanese army can even withstand the attack of a main force of the Anti-Japanese War.

The railway was successfully repaired, and Colonel Takeda also expected that there would be anti-Japanese armed forces to destroy it.It was precisely because of this concern that Takeda Dazuo mobilized two-thirds of the troops from the city defense forces to act as a reserve team, and if there was an accident on the railway, he would immediately drive to the reinforcements.

With the Japanese army's superiority in weapons and combat quality, Takeda felt that even if he encountered an anti-Japanese army from a main regiment, the support troops he sent would still be able to fight.Even after the battle, they were able to rely on the advantage of reinforcements to severely damage the anti-Japanese armed forces that attacked the military columns.

Great idea, but sad ending!

Listening to the fierce artillery fire coming from outside the city, Colonel Takeda also knew that the reinforcements he sent would be more than auspicious.In this situation, with only two infantry units left in his hands, it was impossible for him to send reinforcements outside the city.

The only thing that can be done is to order the Japanese troops stationed on the periphery to do their best to stop the anti-Japanese armed forces attacking the military columns.At the same time, a report was sent to the garrison troops in the surrounding counties, asking them to gather troops overnight and rush to the Zaozhuang railway line for reinforcements.

Although in this way, Takeda will inevitably be reprimanded face to face.But considering the safety of the two military columns, Takeda Dazuo felt that he should try his best to minimize the loss.Only in this way, can he be punished with a reduced punishment after the battle!

"Ba Geya Road! Send a report to the Special High School and ask them how they do their intelligence work? In Zaozhuang, the main Chinese army and a large number of artillery troops appeared. Why didn't they get any information before. A bunch of idiots! "

Looking at the continuous artillery explosion outside the city, Takeda Dazuo was also bleeding in his heart.Although he didn't come to the battlefield in person, he could still imagine that the reinforcements sent earlier should be struggling under artillery fire at this moment!

The reinforcements sent out also carried a small amount of artillery.But the sudden explosion and shelling left them no time to set up a cannon.Faced with such a fierce artillery attack, how long can the reinforcements last?

The officers and soldiers of the Lunan guerrilla detachment who were cleaning the battlefield also heard the sound of artillery fire behind them. As the chief of staff, Lin Dingyuan was also very surprised and said: "Mother! What a fierce artillery fire! There are so many artillery fire in the special operations team!" ?”

"Chief of Staff, judging from the sound of the guns, it seems to be the artillery of the little devil. Could it be the little devil who is attacking?"

"No! The explosion happened first, and then the artillery fire appeared. Not surprisingly, this is a combat unit under the command of the special operations team, which is blocking the Japanese reinforcements coming from the city. That direction is not exactly the location of Zaozhuang City ?"

"Hey! They have so many cannons in their hands? Listen to this movement, there must be at least a dozen or twenty cannons!"

"The strength of the special operations team is really unpredictable. It seems that we still don't know much about this neighbor. Forget it! Inform the troops and move the supplies quickly, and other things will be discussed after the battle is over!"

Earlier, I only thought that the infantry trained by Hu Biao was excellent, but I didn't expect that there was such an artillery unit under Hu Biao's command.Artillery is undoubtedly extremely tempting to the Eighth Route Army known as "millet plus rifles".

For the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Shanxi Mountain Anti-Japanese War, the artillery captured on the battlefield had to be handed over to the brigade or division level troops for use.Even if some main regiments have a few mortars, they are already very happy.

The guerrilla detachment that arrived in Zaozhuang this time received the assistance of four mortars from Hu Biao, which made the column very envious.Fortunately, the column also knew that it was given by Hu Biao to the guerrilla detachment, so it was somewhat unreasonable for him to hand over to the column.

The most important thing is that sometimes light cannons are useless, and corresponding shells need to be accumulated.Lin Dingyuan, who organized the troops to carry supplies this time, also hopes to find some more heavy weapons in the military ranks.

In that case, you can also contribute a batch of artillery and heavy weapons to the level, so that the combat effectiveness of the troops will also be improved.Correspondingly, troops fighting behind enemy lines will also narrow the gap in strength with the Japanese army.

Also hearing the sound of shelling from the direction of the ambush position, Hu Biao, who was cleaning the battlefield, saw two occupied bunkers, and said to the action team members: "Put explosives and destroy these two bunkers!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Knowing that this kind of bunker built by the railway will cause great casualties and damage to the combat troops behind the enemy in the future, Hu Biao naturally wants to get rid of it.Even if the Japanese army can be rebuilt later, it will take time and money after all.

After leaving the bunker and coming to the railway line, Hu Biao looked at Qian Zhong and the combat company who were carrying supplies, and said briefly: "Old Qian, let the soldiers carry the food and quilts first, as well as the lighter weapons and ammunition .

As for the artillery shells and artillery, the large-caliber artillery is left behind, and the shells are also left behind. The large mortars and infantry artillery can be moved back to the mountains in batches.Time is tight, tell the soldiers to work harder tonight! "

"Yes, Captain! Are these howitzers thrown here?"

"If you don't throw it here, how can you move into the mountains? I know I don't want to, if I have a choice, why would I be willing to do it! Okay, let's move the things that can be moved first, and I will deal with the rest later. !"

"Yes!"

Looking at the six 105-caliber howitzer field guns found in the carriage, both Hu Biao and Qian Zhong knew that these were artillery commonly used by the artillery brigades of the Japanese army.The range and power of this kind of artillery are still very good.

It's a pity that Hu Biao doesn't have a car, and he can't haul the artillery with manpower alone.In this case, Hu Biao naturally would not let Qian Zhongbai waste his energy, but let him keep the artillery, and Hu Biao would take it away later.

It is a rare opportunity to seize this kind of artillery, and even the train has a batch of shells, so Hu Biao naturally stored them.When necessary, using these cannons can also give the little devil more and bigger surprises.

After checking the supplies on the train, Hu Biao found that most of the supplies he carried on this train were weapons and ammunition, as well as a batch of artillery.The food and other supplies he most wanted to see, only found two carriages in this military train.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Old Chen, take San Pai with you and follow me to the front!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Quickly summoning the three platoons of fighters under his command, Hu Biao and his party came to the place where the guerrilla detachment was transferring supplies.Seeing Hu Biao and others who brought people over, Lin Dingyuan hurried forward and said, "Captain Hu, why are you here?"

"The battle over there is over, come and see what's going on on your side! Where's Captain Sun?"

"He went to the ambush position ahead, preparing to ambush the little devils who came from Zhangzhuang for reinforcements!"

"Old Chen, send the Eighth Squad over there with the four mortars and shells. From the Seventh Squad and the Ninth Squad, send two snipers to assist in the battle. After the battle is over, you will return! Tell the Eighth Squad to hurry over, Zhangzhuang The little devil is probably coming soon."

"Yes, Captain!"
