Chapter 78: Promotion (Second Shift)

After the retreat of the Japanese troops in front of the position of the 2nd Battalion, with the support of reinforcements, the 2nd Regiment drove away the Japanese troops who had attacked the position of the Engineer School, but the casualties were not small.

But seeing that the attack was thwarted and a few tanks were lost, Maruyama Masao in the rear had a blue face and was very ugly.

A wing attacking the position of a regiment of the Chinese army can still fail.

You must know that these tanks were all asked by him to the division commander, not only did he fail to rely on these tanks to attack the position, but he let the Chinese army blow up several vehicles.

It's a shame.

"Your Excellency the Brigade Commander, the Division Commander calls!"

Afraid of something, Maruyama Masao took the phone with a hard head, "Moxi Moxi, I'm Maruyama Masao." ”

"Yaga!"

Ryosuke Yoshizumi's roaring voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Hey!" Maruyama replied honestly.

"Idiot, such a good opportunity, I actually failed to conquer the position of China, half a day, I must be given to conquer the position of the people of China before dark."

"Hey, please rest assured, division commander, I will definitely guarantee to capture the positions of the Chinese before dark, but I ask for tactical support from the aviation." Maruyama Masao was not polite, but as long as he could overcome the positions of the Chinese army, what if he asked for reinforcements from the aviation force.

"I'll communicate with the air force, but if you can't take the position, don't blame me for being rude!" Ryosuke Yoshizumi said harshly.

"Hey! I'll oversee the battle myself! ”

"Don't get too close to the front line, watch out for that Shina demon!" Although Yoshizumi Ryosuke was annoyed that the attack had been frustrated, he didn't want his brigade commander to hang up again.

At that time, even if he is embarrassed and loses a lot of people, and two brigade commanders die in succession, the reputation of the Ninth Division will become very stinky.

"Hey!"

Putting down the phone, Maruyama Masao instructed the commander of the 7th Wing on the side, "Twenty minutes later, after the artillery wing shelling is over, launch another attack, and you will personally supervise the battle."

When the time comes, there will be tactical support from aviation units, and I hope to get good news! ”

Nagashi Iza nodded and said, "Hey, please rest assured!" ”

。。。。。。

"That's the devil tank you guys blew up with this thing?"

Gui Yongqing pointed to the only Molotov cocktail left on the ground, a little surprised, this was just a glass bottle, filled with gasoline, and a cloth belt was tied to the mouth of the bottle.

This can blow up the devil tank?

If this thing is so useful, what kind of ghost tank are they afraid of? Not to mention the death squads risking their lives to blow up the devil's tank.

"Sir, when using this, you can first light this cloth belt and throw the Molotov cocktail at the tank. Because it is gasoline inside, it can flow into the tank along the gap in the tank, and the fire can make the devil's tank scrapped as soon as it burns over.

The lowly position can be demonstrated to several superiors. ”

After speaking, Leng Jie took the Molotov cocktail and came to a flame, and after the cloth strip on the mouth of the bottle was burned, he quickly threw it at the devil tank that had been damaged more than thirty meters away but was still emitting weak flames and black smoke.

Not to mention, Leng Jie's throwing level is not bad, and he happened to throw it on the tank, which made Qiu Qingquan and Xie Chengrui also a little impressed with Leng Jie.

When the incendiary flask hit the tank, the bottle exploded instantly, and the originally small flames suddenly became very large, covering most of the tank.

This surprised Gui Yongqing and the others.

"Not bad, not bad! This Molotov cocktail is really a weapon against tanks! Gui Yongqing couldn't help but applaud.

"Company Commander Leng, how do you do this? If it can be popularized, why would we let the devil's tank be so powerful. Qiu Qingquan on the side said curiously.

"Qiqi Chief Qiu, this is actually very simple. Just find an empty glass bottle, fill it with gasoline, and wrap a strip of cloth around the mouth of the bottle. Leng Jie said generously.

Naturally, he hoped that this Molotov cocktail would become widespread.

Although gasoline is also a rarity, the cost of a Molotov cocktail is not much higher than that of a grenade, and the cost is mainly on gasoline.

But this weapon is just right against the tanks of the devils, whose tanks are notoriously thin-skinned and stuffed, and the armor is so thin that they can't withstand the attack of Molotov cocktails at all. If one Molotov cocktail doesn't work, then two, three, it will always work.

As for the war defense guns, China can't make them themselves, and now they are all made in Germany or Austria, which are all bought at a high price.

Don't think too well of the Germans, they are all great powers, who is better than whom?

After a while, it should be made in the Soviet Union, and then it will be made in the United States, and it will not be made by itself anyway.

Moreover, the anti-tank gun is inconvenient to move, and it is very likely that as soon as a devil tank is destroyed, the position will be exposed, and then it will be killed by the devil's artillery.

And Molotov cocktails are different, how many Molotov cocktails can be made from a barrel of gasoline? Maybe the disadvantage is the distance, you have to wait for the devil's tank to get close to the throwing range, of course, street fighting is the best.

"Captain, it is recommended to promote the manufacture of this Molotov cocktail, and we can reduce a lot of pressure in defensive operations later, at least we don't have to be helpless against the devil tank." Xie Chengrui, who was on the side, hurriedly suggested.

"Does this weapon have a name?" Gui Yongqing said curiously.

"How about a good name for Gui's cocktail?" Leng Jie suddenly suggested.

"Gui's cocktail?" Gui Yongqing's face was a little not good-looking.

Leng Jie hurriedly explained, "The chief may have misunderstood. With this name, the Japanese army would not have thought that it was a weapon. If this weapon is famous, everyone thinks of you, sir, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? ”

Leng Jie's words were a bit against his will, in fact, he really wanted to ridicule Gui Yongqing, but he couldn't say no, otherwise he was teaching the corps how to mix?

So he complimented Gui Yongqing a few words against his will, and as for whether it became a special word to ridicule Gui Yongqing later, he didn't know.

Sure enough, listening to Leng Jie's explanation, Gui Yongqing's face suddenly turned cloudy and clear, revealing a faint smile.

Qiu Qingquan on the side said suddenly, "Commander Xie, if Qiu remembers correctly, the second battalion still lacks a deputy battalion commander." ”

Xie Chengrui looked at Qiu Qingquan in surprise, but still nodded, "After Battalion Commander Wu was seriously injured, the deputy battalion commander temporarily took the position of battalion commander, and there is indeed a lack of a deputy battalion commander." ”

Qiu Qingquan hurriedly suggested, "Captain, this cold company commander has made meritorious contributions in repelling the Japanese army, killing more than 100 Japanese soldiers and capturing several Japanese soldiers.

The humble position believes that there is merit and should be rewarded, so as to show that the captain has clear rewards and punishments. ”

Gui Yongqing nodded thoughtfully, as if he had forgotten that Leng Jie was a member of the Tax Police Corps before, "What Yu'an said makes sense, let Company Commander Leng concurrently serve as the deputy commander of the second battalion with the captain and company commander, the original deputy battalion commander will be regular, as for Battalion Commander Wu, he will talk about it after his injury is healed." ”

"Thank you, sir, for cultivating!"

Leng Jie immediately saluted, although he didn't know why Qiu Qingquan would say good things for himself, he would settle the matter first!
