Chapter 57: Night Attack on the Enemy Camp (Part I)

It is said that Xu Wen carried Mosin Nagan back to the vicinity of the south gate, followed by his own Tiger tank, Li Wu, Fang Shengli and others immediately ran over to greet him when they saw this.

At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark, and Li Wu greeted him with a smile: "Brigade commander, are you back?" The devil repelled it, right? ”

Xu Wen nodded and said, "Hmm." ”

"So what do we do next?" Li Wu asked.

Xu Wen didn't rush to answer, but asked, "How is the situation at the East Gate?" ”

Li Wu and Fang Shengli all shook their heads, they had been at the south gate all the time, and they had never returned to the brigade headquarters, so they naturally didn't know what the battle situation was at the east gate.

Xu Wen glanced to the east and said, "Listening to the sound of gunfire, it should be defended, let's go, let's go back to the brigade headquarters to rest for a while, and then take you to the night attack on the enemy camp at night and kill the artillery position of the little devil!" ”

So Xu Wen took Li Wu and Fang Shengli to lead the tank battalion and the air defense battalion to withdraw into the city, and Li Wu and Fang Shengli led the team to disperse and hide in case they were attacked by the devils.

Xu Wen took Wu Yongqiang and several other subordinates and returned to the brigade headquarters.

When Chen Zhenglun learned that Xu Wen was back, he hurriedly ran out of the brigade headquarters, and just at this time, Zhou Weiguo also rushed back from the position of the Second Regiment at the east gate.

When the three met, Zhou Weiguo and Chen Zhenglun saluted Xu Wenlizheng at the same time: "Brigade commander." ”

Xu Wen returned the salute to the two and nodded: "It's all hard work, let's go, let's go to the brigade department." ”

The three of them walked into the brigade headquarters together, Chen Zhenglun was busy pouring boiling water for the two, and Xu Wen asked Zhou Weiguo: "How is the battle situation at the East Gate?" ”

Zhou Weiguo smiled and said: "The devil is a feint, without the support of heavy artillery troops and tank troops, and launched several attacks, but they were all beaten back by the second regiment."

Now that the commander of the second regiment is staring at the position, I estimate that the battle at the south gate is over, so I will go back to the brigade headquarters to see if there is any action tonight. ”

Obviously, Zhou Weiguo remembered that Xu Wen had said before that he would attack the devil's artillery position at night, so he deliberately rushed back.

Xu Wen took the iron water tank handed over by Chen Zhenglun, raised his head and drank water for a while, wiped his mouth and said: "I came to the brigade headquarters to tell you that I plan to take the tank battalion and the air defense battalion to attack the devil's artillery position at night."

The artillery units of the devils pose a huge threat to our forward troops, and as long as they are killed, the offensive edge of the 6th Division will be greatly reduced, which will be more conducive to our next defense. ”

Zhou Weiguo said: "I agree to attack the Japanese artillery position at night, but this matter still has to be pondered carefully, how to achieve a single hit, and then quickly withdraw." ”

Xu Wendao: "I have my own way to do this, don't worry about it, just in case, after I leave, Chief of Staff Chen will go to the Second Regiment of the East Gate to take command, and you have to go to the South Gate to defend the country to prevent the devils from counterattacking, and at the same time, you can also give some support or response when we need it." ”

"Okay, no problem." Chen Zhenglun and Zhou Weiguo nodded one after another.

After a few simple explanations, Xu Wen left the headquarters of the Independent Brigade.

Wu Yongqiang, as the captain of the tiger-like car where Xu Wen was, naturally followed Xu Wen out.

As soon as he left the courtyard gate of the brigade headquarters, Xu Wen instructed him: "Fourth, you go and inform Li Wu and Fang Shengli, let them check the ammunition and fuel, and if there is a tank or military vehicle with insufficient fuel, stay."

Bring a well-oiled chariot and get ready to attack me. ”

"Yes!" Wu Yongqiang answered, and hurriedly ran to give the order.

Xu Wen took two guards to the street inside the south gate, because of the enemy's air raids and artillery bombardment, so many buildings have been turned into ruins, and the people have long since fled, and now they are being used by the independent brigade to prepare for street fighting positions behind.

When Xu Wen arrived, some of the soldiers of the first regiment were busy using the ruins to build street fortifications.

Xu Wen found a place where no one was around, and took out the Leopard tank and T34-85 that had exploded in the previous battle.

At the same time, a box of flower water, a box of chewing gum and even five boxes of Moutai wine were taken out, all of which were exploded by Xu Wen in the battle just now.

Li Wu and Fang Shengli soon rushed over with the tank battalion and the air defense battalion, and to Xu Wen's surprise, all their tanks, armored vehicles and air defense army vehicles arrived.

None of them were left, and in the face of Xu Wen's somewhat surprised gaze, Wu Yongqiang ran to Xu Wen and reported happily: "The brigade commander, the second brother and the battalion commander Fang have concentrated all the gasoline and redistributed it to all the tanks and combat vehicles, so none of the equipment of the two battalions is absent, and they are all here." ”

Li Wu and Fang Shengli also walked over, and saluted Xu Wen with a smile: "Brigade commander, don't worry, we have calculated, and the remaining fuel and ammunition are enough to support us in a night raid battle." ”

"That's good." Xu Wen was relieved, gave them a thumbs up and praised, "Well done!" ”

As he spoke, Xu Wenyi pointed to the Tiger and Leopard behind him, as well as the T34 tank, and said domineeringly: "I will add two more tanks to you, namely the German-made Leopard and the Russian-made T34!" ”

Only then did Li Wu and the others notice the two new tanks behind Xu Wen.

They were all pleasantly surprised and rushed up to take a closer look, and Xu Wen explained loudly behind them: "The Leopard tank and the T34 tank, although the volume and defensive armor are not as good as the Tiger, the caliber of the artillery is also slightly smaller.

But they have all the inclined defensive armor that the Tiger tank does not have, so the defense is even better!

And it's more maneuverable! Dealing with all the tanks in active service of the Japanese army, it is naturally the same way, completely crushed! ”

"Great, there are two more tanks as powerful as the Tiger, the strength of our tank battalion has been further strengthened, and we want the little devil to look good tonight." Li Wu was excited to touch the T34 and the Leopard, and the two new tanks obviously made him, the tank battalion commander, love it.

Since being transformed into a super special forces by Xu Wen with the all-round special forces skill book, Li Wu and his others have not only improved their own combat ability, but also greatly enhanced their cognitive acceptance of weapons and equipment.

Because they can be used, and they have seen their power, the desire and love for this new type of equipment has greatly increased.

After looking at the tank, Fang Shengli pointed to the small box placed in front of the tank and asked, "Brigade commander, what are these?" ”

Xu Wen said with a smile: "These are chewing gum, toilet water, and Moutai wine, chewing gum is divided into one per person, and each car group has a bottle of toilet water, as for Moutai, whoever destroys the most Japanese artillery tonight will be rewarded with a box, and drink it as you like!" ”

"Yes!" Everyone was overjoyed and stepped forward one after another to start distributing the "spoils".

Needless to say, chewing gum was one of the favorite items of the U.S. military during World War II. Toilet water not only repells mosquitoes, but also serves as a perfume.

This is simply the best for the soldiers who spend their days in cramped tanks and armored vehicles, covered in sweat and the smell of gasoline and gunpowder.

Therefore, these little things are very popular with the soldiers, and they also have a certain boost to morale, which Xu Wen did not expect.

After they finished distributing the supplies, Xu Wen immediately instructed Li Wu to transfer manpower from the tank battalion to form the crew of the two new tanks, and everything was ready.

Xu Wen sat in his Tiger tank, took the on-board wireless walkie-talkie, and gave a deep order to all the participating troops: "Brothers, our goal in this operation is to destroy the Japanese artillery positions, so I order you to follow the Tiger tank, and all actions are based on my orders!"

Kill the Japanese artillery positions and see what Tani Shofu will attack tomorrow! ”

"Tank No. 1 received, No. 2 received...... The air defense battalion has arrived at ......" After receiving a response, Xu Wen ordered loudly: "Go!" ”

The Tiger tank was the first to start, followed by the Leopard and the T34, followed by Sherman and fifteen No. 4 tanks, and at the back was naturally Fang Shengli's air defense battalion.
