Chapter 35: Boom
After the 38rd Wing was attacked, the 38th Wing did not immediately come to support, because the 33rd Wing's wing headquarters was directly killed by Xu Wen.
The commander of the 38th Wing, Shizuji Sukegawa, did not dare to act rashly because he could not get in touch with the 33rd Wing Headquarters and did not know the specific situation.
Wait until the liaison soldiers he sent out rushed over to find out the specific situation, and then ran back to report.
The 33rd Wing had been flanked by Xu Wen and Zhou Weiguo, and all of them were wiped out.
But Sukegawa Shizuji didn't know it, and still sent an infantry brigade to reinforce the 33rd Wing.
Until now, the old devil Sukegawa Shizuji has not realized the seriousness of the problem, he thinks that the national army in Wuxi counterattacked at night and attacked the 33rd Wing.
I didn't expect that it was the 33rd Wing that was caught between the front and rear of two Chinese armies.
Therefore, the reinforcement brigade he sent out inevitably met head-on with the counterattack troops led by Xu Wen and Zhou Weiguo on the way.
The mechanized vanguard, consisting of five No. 4 tanks, one armored vehicle and ten armed military vehicles, launched a fierce surprise attack on the devils of this brigade.
After a dense fire assault, more than half of the unlucky devil brigade was killed or wounded, and the rest were all stunned and turned around.
But how is it possible for two-legged infantry to outrun tanks and armored vehicles at speeds of tens of kilometers per hour?
Under the command of Xu Wen, the tanks and armored vehicles pursued forward, while constantly firing artillery and strafing, and used ferocious fire to wipe out the other half of the Japanese troops who tried to escape.
The brigade of the 38th Infantry Wing, in front of Xu Wen and his advanced armored troops, did not even have a chance to resist, and was completely wiped out.
After killing more than 1,000 devils, Xu Wen and the others led the 8,000 Wuxi defenders non-stop and continued to attack forward.
In the headquarters of the 38th Wing, the sound of guns and explosions just now had already alarmed the Wing Commander Sukegawa Shizuji Daisa, and the old devil hurriedly ran out of the tent.
Looking to the north, he frowned in confusion and said, "What's the matter?" Could it be that the 1st Brigade and the Chinese Army exchanged fire? ”
A young staff officer who ran out behind him said: "Sir, it's very possible, the situation tonight is a little chaotic, and we don't know what happened until now." ”
"Then do you want to send troops over for reinforcements?" Shizuji Sukegawa hesitated.
Because the departure of the 1st Brigade was too urgent and the distance was very close, there was no additional radio station, so it was impossible to get in touch at the first time.
Staff Officer Shao Zuo suggested: "Sir, the enemy situation is unknown, and it is not recommended to continue to increase troops, so it is better to send someone over to investigate the situation before making plans." ”
Sukegawa Shizuji nodded: "Yo Xi, immediately send someone over to investigate." ”
The two Japanese scouts quickly took the order to set off, but they didn't go far before they ran into the armored unit of the independent battalion at a gallop.
At that time, the two devil scouts were holding guns and marching forward on foot, when they suddenly heard a strange roar in front of them, and the two devil scouts were taken aback and quickly stopped.
Then they saw a stream of snowy lights shining from the road to the north.
The two devil scouts were startled and hurriedly hid in the grass on the left.
One of them followed the light for a while and said, "It seems to be the sound of a tank tank!" ”
"It should be from the Chinese army, right? , the Imperial Army did not have tank armored units in this vicinity. Another devil scouted.
"Then I'll hold the Zhina Army here, you hurry back and report to the Wing Commander!" The devil scout who spoke first said.
The other scout did not hesitate, nodded and immediately turned with his gun in hand, and ran back under the cover of night.
Although the two devil soldiers were frightened by the sudden appearance of tanks and armored units, they did not know where these Chinese armored units came from, but they were afraid and did not forget their mission.
After the devil scout left, the devil scout who volunteered to stay raised his gun and aimed at the tank and combat vehicles on the road, which were getting closer and closer.
The tank he was aiming at was Xu Wen's command vehicle, when the tank entered a position twenty meters away from him.
The devil scout decisively pulled the trigger, snapped a gunshot, and the body of the Type 38 rifle in his hand shook violently, the muzzle of the gun flashed red, and a hot bullet flew out with a roar.
Sou! After a short flight, it hit the protective steel plate on the roof of the tank, and bam! Jingling! A small spark erupted.
The sudden attack surprised the tank soldiers who were driving, and they slammed on the brakes without waiting for Xu Wen's order.
The No. 4 tank, which was traveling at high speed, immediately stopped, and Xu Wen almost hit his head on the steel plate in front of him under the huge inertia.
Regardless of reprimanding the soldier who was driving, Xu Wen immediately ordered: "It's not good to have enemies!" With that, he picked up the wireless walkie-talkie and ordered: "The armored car will come over immediately and cover us!" ”
The half-track armored car that followed the tank immediately roared forward quickly, passed over the tank where Xu Wen was, and the two MG42 vehicle-mounted machine guns on the roof immediately opened fire on both sides of the road.
The tank that Xu Wen was in also turned the direction of the tank gun and began to search for the target.
The devil scout hiding in the grass hurriedly lowered his head to dodge when the MG42 vehicle-mounted machine gun strafed the rain of bullets, allowing countless hot bullets to fly over his head, breaking the trees behind him.
After the strafing fire poured over and hit farther away, the devil scout quickly got up again, raised his gun and aimed at the soldier of the independent battalion who was blindly strafing the armored vehicle, and pulled the trigger.
At that time, the two sides were less than fifteen meters apart, and it was only because the devil scout was in the shadows, and the fighter who was manipulating MG42 was in the light, so he took the lead.
Just listen to the snap hook! A gunshot, peculiar to the 38 Gai, rang out, and the hapless independent battalion soldier in the armored car was shot in the chest, and fell directly from the roof of the car with a muffled grunt.
The vehicle-mounted general-purpose machine gun, which was originally firing wildly, was also suddenly dumbfired.
With a shot hit, the devil scout saw another Chinese machine gunner on the roof of the armored car, turned around and found himself, and was about to turn his gun and shoot at him.
At this time, if he turns around and runs away, he is likely to be swept away by the opponent's machine gun bullets, and after weighing the pros and cons, the devil scout decides to take a risk and kill the vehicle-mounted machine heavy before escaping.
But it was this decision that cost him his life!
As he re-pulled the bolt, ready to fire before the vehicle-mounted heavy, killing him.
On the roof of the No. 4 tank where Xu Wen was, a burst of gunfire suddenly sounded: Da Da Da!
Whoosh, several hot bullets whistled, all hit the devil soldier, puff body hit several bullets, the movement in the hand of the ghost soldier came to an abrupt end, the 38 rifle came out of his hand, and the whole person was unsteady on his feet, and he was about to fall down with a stumble.
However, before the corpse of the devil scout could fall, the machine gunner on the roof of the armored car had already turned his gun, and saw that his companion was killed by the devil's sneak attack.
He was very angry and manipulated the general-purpose machine gun in his hand and yelled: "Little devil! Come on! ”
Shoot wildly at the fallen devil scouts! Dada The general-purpose machine gun continued to roar, sending a large number of bullets into the body of the devil scout.
Suddenly it was beaten into a hornet's nest, and the devil scout couldn't die anymore, and fell down with a bang.
The warrior was still firing wildly, and the dense rain of bullets shattered the grass where he had been hiding, sending debris flying everywhere.
On the roof of the No. 4 tank behind, Xu Wen, who was holding a submachine gun to kill the devil scout, saw this, and couldn't help but scold angrily: "Stop!" Look at your talent, you have the ability to kill other devils to avenge your brother! What are you mad about a corpse? ”
The on-board machine gunner stopped firing stupidly: "Yes! ”
At this time, the system sent out a prompt at the right time: "Ding Dong, the host kills a Japanese second lieutenant scout and explodes a flamethrower!" ”
