The top of Mianshan Mountain, the observation post.

Li Yunlong: They also saw the red flare.

Zhao Gang said: "Staff Officer Wang, the devil's armored train has slowed down!" ”

"See." Wang Yan nodded, then grabbed the microphone, "Give me 1 group of blasting!" ”

"Counselor Wang, don't be in a hurry to blow it up first, and then wait." Li Yunlong said, "The current position is still a little awkward, and the firepower on the armored train can still cover the devil freight train." ”

"Okay!" Wang Yan immediately covered the microphone with his hand.

……

The northern foot of Mianshan Mountain.

Because of Mianshan and Taohe, the Zhengtai Railway made a big bend at an almost right angle when it arrived here.

Two of the three explosion points of Blasting Group 1 are located to the left of this right-angled bend, facing the direction of Yangquan.

The demolition group 1 was commanded by Sun Ming, the deputy captain of the wolf tooth squad, although he had attended a military academy and participated in large-scale battles such as the Battle of Xinkou and the Battle of Taiyuan, but at this moment, Sun Ming's palms were still soaked with sweat.

Especially when he saw that the devil's armored train began to slow down, Sun Ming was even more nervous, lest the armored train finally stop to the right of the explosion point, then they would lose their efforts.

Wang Gensheng kept reporting the latest developments to Sun Ming.

"Deputy Sun, the little devil's armored train has slowed down!"

"Deputy Sun, the little devil's freight train is catching up again!"

"Deputy Sun, the distance between the armored train and the freight train has been shortened."

"Deputy ...... of Team Sun" Before Wang Gensheng finished speaking, Sun Ming heard Wang Yan's extremely cold voice coming from the telephone receiver next to his ear, "Sun Ming, detonate!" ”

Sun Ming's hands were already on the detonator.

After receiving the order, Sun Ming pressed down the detonator hard.

Suddenly, three flames bloomed at the same time on the railway at the northern foot of Mianshan.

After the explosion, the railroad tracks that bypassed from the northern foot of Mianshan were blown open three huge gaps, separating the devil's armored train and freight train on the east and west sides of Mianshan.

……

The top of Mianshan Mountain, the observation post.

Li Yunlong took out his shell gun and shot it at the night sky overhead, and shouted loudly: "Pass my order, all battalions and companies will immediately attack the freight train according to the original plan!" ”

Sun Desheng, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately raised the flare gun and pulled the trigger.

The gunshots rang out, and a red flare rose into the night sky from the top of Mianshan.

In the next moment, a tidal shout sounded in the woods on the north and south sides of the Zhengtai Railway, and then the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army poured out like a tide.

The battle is on!

……

As soon as the explosion sounded, Yuo Hiraku knew that he was in big trouble.

There is no doubt that the Eighth Route Army is really eyeing the freight train.

One of Hiraku's hearts sank all of a sudden.

Because the freight train and the armored train at this time are exactly on the east and west sides of a right-angle curve, the firepower of the armored train cannot cover the freight train!

"Rush forward!" Ping Luyong's first reaction was timely.

"Order the locomotive, don't brake! Don't be afraid to go off the rails! Full speed ahead! ”

"Even if it is a derailment and overturning, it must be within the fire coverage of the armored train!"

Unfortunately, there were six carriages between the Tibetan troop carriage and the front of the train, and the heralds had to jump over from the roof of the car one by one to give orders.

It takes time.

The herald had barely reached the roof of the car when a red flare suddenly rose from the hill on the left.

Immediately after that, a tidal wave of shouts sounded in the wilderness on the north and south sides, and just as the searchlight of the armored train on the other side of the mountain shone in this direction, Ping Luyong was horrified to see that the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army had jumped up from the woods and grass on the north side of the railway, screaming and rushing up.

"It's over!" Yuo Pinglu said in his heart.

……

"Nani?"

Captain Shimazu's eyes widened.

This little devil also said that the Eighth Route Army was preparing to ambush the armored train.

But soon, Captain Shimazu realized that things were not at all what he had thought.

The Eighth Route Army, which emerged from both sides of the railway, did not attack their No. 3 armored train, but pounced on the freight train on the other side.

Captain Shimazu woke up like a dream, and it was broken.

At that moment, Captain Shimazu shouted: "Brake, brake!" ”

An officer pulled the brake brake down, and the wheels of the armored train immediately rubbed against the rails, creating a large number of dazzling sparks.

With a tooth-souring crunch, the armored train finally stopped.

"Turn around and drive back!" Captain Shimazu continued to yell, "Go back!" ”

The locomotive, which had just stopped, started again, and the road opened again with a puff.

Captain Shimazu shouted again: "The engineer team is ready to repair the railway, the 1st team has the 2nd team to cover the fire, and everyone else is on the roof of the car, hurry, hurry up!" ”

Captain Shimazu's reaction speed is still very fast.

The devils on the armored train immediately got busy.

In a short time, the No. 3 armored train was already in front of the gap that had just been blown up.

Before the train could stop, more than a dozen devil sappers had already jumped out of the train, holding tools, ready to clean up the sleepers and roadbed damaged by the Eighth Route Army.

But at this moment, two dazzling tongues of fire were violently drawn from the front.

The devil sappers who had just jumped out of the car were immediately knocked down several times, and the rest quickly fell to the ground.

At this time, Captain Shimazu had already gone up to the roof of the car, holding his saber high and looking up to the sky and howling: "Machine gun cover, all machine guns are fully fired, Sasi change, tear silk change......"

Suddenly, one Type 92 heavy machine gun, two crooked light machine guns on the right side of the two carriages, and one Type 92 heavy machine gun on the roof of the coal water car were in full swing.

A dense rain of bullets swept through in an instant.

The machine-gun fire of the Separate Regiment was immediately suppressed.

Immediately after, more than a dozen devil sappers got up again.

However, the dozen or so devil sappers had just gotten up from the ground when two dazzling tongues of fire shot fiercely from the other direction.

The devil's ordnance worker fell several more in an instant.

"Yaga!" Captain Shimazu raised his sword again and roared, "At nine o'clock, Sasi changed ......"

The dense machine-gun fire poured violently in the direction of nine o'clock, and the two machine guns in the direction of nine o'clock were immediately completely suppressed, and I don't know whether they were knocked out or transferred?

Then the devil sapper jumped up again and prepared for the homework.

But then, at eleven o'clock, two more tongues of fire swept in.

Captain Shimazu was so angry that he screamed but there was nothing he could do, and by this time, this little devil had already realized that it was impossible to repair the railway under the machine-gun fire of the Eighth Route Army.

This means that it is no longer possible for the No. 3 armored train to provide fire support to the freight train on the other side of the mountain, even though the distance between the two trains is not even 500 meters in a straight line.
