Majiadu Fort and Sujiazhuang Fort are located in the important passage of 1000 meters - 1200 meters outside Qinshui City.

The Majiadu Fort, built at 1,200 meters west of the city, is an important barrier to protect Qinshui City, as long as Majiadu, an important passage leading to Jicheng and Quwo, can be ensured to ensure the safe and smooth passage of troops and important military supplies.

Once lost and occupied by the Chinese troops, it will not only threaten the delivery of military supplies to Jicheng and Quwo, but also create a great obstacle to the Japanese army advancing westward.

Sujiazhuang Turret is built in the southeast corner of 1,000 meters outside Qinshui City, which is the inevitable passage for the Japanese army to march from Luoyang, Henan Province to Zhongtiao Mountain, and is also the only way to reinforce and attack the logistics support of the Japanese army in Yongji and Fenglingdu.

Therefore, the Majiadu Forthouse and the Sujiazhuang Turret and Qinshui have become a corner, and for the Japanese troops stationed in Qinshui, the loss of any of the turret positions in Majiadu and Sujiazhuang will directly threaten the safety of the isolated city of Qinshui.

As the commander of the Japanese army left behind in Qinshui, how could he not know the stakes?

He received an urgent request for help from the Japanese commander Cao of the Majiadu Fort, and learned in detail about the dangerous situation of the Majiadu Fort, in order to protect this important barrier in the northwest corner, Gao Ben immediately sent a squad of Japanese soldiers to lead a company of puppet troops to reinforce as quickly as possible.

The Japanese puppet reinforcements were immediately assembled, and the Japanese army marched forward in a car, and the unlucky puppet army followed closely behind the truck with heavy weapons and equipment on their backs, and they did not dare to lag behind at a trot.

The 3rd and 4th companies of the 14th Battalion, which were ambushed in the hilly area between the Qinshui and Majiadu artillery towers in advance, had not seen reinforcements from the Japanese puppet army appear for almost three hours.

These Shaanxi Lengwa heard the fierce gunfire of the five companies attacking the Majiadu artillery tower, and the soldiers of each company, platoon, and squad were anxious like a cat scratching, not only whining and scolding:

"We are raised by the stepmother, we can't even drink soup when the fifth company is eating meat, you listen to the fifth company, how fierce the gunfire is in the attack on the Majiadu Artillery Tower, grandma is a bear, we are like night cats, hiding here and not getting benefits, ball."

"That's right, who knows how the group seat is arranged, why favor one over the other, I just have an opinion about him."

"We've been hiding here and listening to the gunshots, who isn't in a hurry? Simply ask Deputy Regiment Commander Fang to ask us to reinforce the fifth company to attack the Majiadu Artillery Tower. ”

"That's right, I heard that the gunfire of the Majiadu Artillery Tower is getting more and more intense, and it hasn't been beaten down until now, it must be the failure of the Fifth Company's strong attack, if we don't rush over to reinforce it, I'm afraid the Fifth Company will suffer a big loss."

Fang Shichao heard that the soldiers were complaining and complaining, and some were worried about Wulian, which was also his psychological activity.

He was not worried about whether the Fifth Company had encountered a hard bone in this attack on the Majiadu Fort, and the troops were severely damaged in the storming of the fort, so he ordered the combat staff officer around him to lead two soldiers to Majiadu immediately, find out the situation and immediately return to report.

In order to stabilize the dissatisfaction of the soldiers of the 3rd and 4th companies, Fang Shichao conveyed the order in a low voice, ordering the troops to keep quiet and be ready to fire at any time to attack the Japanese puppet army sent from Qinshui to reinforce the Majiadu Artillery Tower.

At this time, the battalion commander of the Yin Dynasty, who was leading the fifth company and the armed plainclothes team to launch a strong attack on the Majiadu Fort, found that the Japanese firepower in the turret was very strong, and the troops launched several attacks and did not get close to the turret, but caused great casualties.

Yin Junliang grabbed the hat on his head in annoyance, struck his head with a thunderbolt and scolded: "What's the deal, the little devil hiding in the turret is like getting into a turtle shell, no matter how you fight, you can't pull your head, the casualties of the troops are so big, the turret is still there, I really want to become a cannonball and crash into it, and die with the turret." ”k

At this time, Captain Kong of the armed plainclothes team, who was lying next to Yin Junliang on behalf of the battalion commander, saw the machine gun of the little devil in the turret spitting tongues of fire, blocking the strong attack of the troops with the most fierce firepower, and suddenly remembered that Lei Yunfeng had said how to attack the turret.

"Yin Dai battalion commander, the regiment once said that we must pay attention to the method of attacking the devil's turret, and if the method is wrong, the troops will be defeated and cause extremely heavy casualties, and it is impossible to destroy the devil's turret, is there a problem with the method of attacking the turret?"

"Captain Kong, I am now leading the fifth company to attack the devil turret for a long time, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties, and their brains have already become a pot of paste, and they can't think of anything, so don't sell the guanzi, let's talk about how the regiment teaches us how to pull out the turret?"

"Earth tank, these three words are not unfamiliar to the battalion commander of the Yin Dynasty, right?"

"Huh? Yes, yes, yes, I remember what the regiment taught us that in the absence of heavy weapons, in order to reduce casualties and brave the enemy's strong firepower to fight back, close to the turret to send explosives, earth tanks can come in the best handy. ”

Yin Junliang slapped his head and scolded: "My head was really kicked by a donkey, and I forgot that Tuanzao mentioned the trick of 'earth tank'." ”

He immediately ordered the seventh platoon commander to lead a squad to hand over three 'earth tanks' to him in the shortest possible time according to the method taught by Lei Yunfeng.

The seventh platoon commander said in embarrassment: "Battalion commander, after a while, you asked me to go there and make you three earthen tanks, didn't you force Qiao's daughter-in-law to cook without rice?" ”

"You bastard, what's wrong with dragging me back? The puppet army that has just been wiped out in the outer courtyard of the Majiadu Artillery Tower, isn't there a lot of things in the dormitory that can be used as earthen tanks? My head was kicked by a donkey, and your head went into the water? Don't hurry up yet? ”

Soon, the seventh platoon commander brought three earthen tanks and brought a few passes of water, and after putting them down, the seventh platoon commander said: "Battalion commander, the three earthen tanks are ready, why don't I take the soldiers to use the earthen tanks as a cover to blow up the devil's turret." ”

Captain Kong of the armed plainclothes team grabbed Yin Junliang and shouted: "Acting battalion commander Yin, we don't have much time, if we can't pull out the devil's turret before dawn, once the Japanese reinforcements arrive, or the Japanese army aviation fighters fly over us to bomb us, not only will we not be able to complete the task of pulling out the devil's turret, but we will also cause greater casualties to the troops." ”

"What do you mean, Captain Kong? I see that you just look down on our seventh platoon, and today I will tell you to see clearly, the combat effectiveness of our seventh platoon and storming the Japanese artillery tower will not force you to arm the plainclothes team at all. ”

The seventh platoon commander stretched out his hand and grabbed Yin Junliang and said earnestly: "Battalion commander, hand over the arduous task of destroying the Majiadu artillery tower to our seventh company to ensure the completion of the task." ”

Yin Junliang tightly grabbed the hand of the seventh platoon commander and said: "Brother, I believe that your seventh company will hand over the task of destroying the devil's turret to you, but you have to remember for me, you must not only pull out the devil's turret, but also give me a good life." ”

"Don't worry, battalion commander." The commander of the seventh platoon led a squad to quickly rush towards the Japanese artillery tower with the help of the cover of three earthen tanks, braving the tongues of fire spit from two light machine guns in the turret.

The so-called earth tank, that is, to find a table of eight immortals, cover a few bedding on the table and pour water, three or two soldiers drilled under the table of eight immortals, and quickly pounced on the turret with this table called the earth tank by the Eighth Route Army.

As long as you can lean in front of the turret and place the explosive pack, after detonation, under the powerful power of the explosive pack, it will detonate and collapse the turret from the root of the turret.

The commander of the seventh platoon with three earthen tanks, under the cover of fire, quickly approached the turret with three earthen tanks, and the bullets fell on the quilt with water and splashed continuously.
