Chapter 1304: Tear Another Piece of Meat Down (Second Update!) )
At the temporary garrison of the Japanese army, the wing commander was furious in the tent, scolding people when he caught them.
Several combat staff officers stayed by the side, not daring to take a breath, and they were very careful in their work, for fear of alarming the wing commander and directing their anger to themselves.
The chief of staff hesitated at the door of the tent for a long time before he walked in and lowered his head and reported: "Wing Commander, the losses of the baggage team have been counted. ”
"They were attacked 46 times, including landmines and shelling, on their march."
"Although the ammunition supply was delivered to us on time, the losses were very large."
"A total of 268 casualties were inflicted on the escort unit and the baggage brigade, and 29 baggage vehicles were completely destroyed during the march. Some were blown up by mines, some were blown up by artillery shells, and a large amount of ammunition supplies were lost. ”
"There are seven days left for ten days of ammunition replenishment."
"The two-way attack troops that captured the hostages also returned in vain, losing one and a half battalions of the Imperial Allied Army and 249 Imperial Army."
The co-captain's already angry face was immediately flushed red because of these bloody figures, his fists were clenched tightly, his green tendons were exposed, and he gritted his teeth and wanted to curse, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
Those who lost the battle were all their own henchmen, and they were all scolded, who would give their lives in the future?
After being silent for a long time, he ordered in a deep voice: "The troops will continue to attack in the direction of Lingqiu tomorrow." ”
"This is the edge of the garrison base area, and there are few Chinese. When they enter the hinterland of their base area, there will definitely be Chinese everywhere, and it will be much easier to capture hostages at that time. ”
"With hostages, take them with you no matter what you do, and the Eighth Route Army will have a lot of worries about attacking us again."
The chief of staff hurriedly replied: "The wing commander is wise, and he will go and give orders now." ”
At the Laiyuan Independent Battalion Headquarters, the atmosphere today is much better than last night.
Each sortie killed a lot of devils and captured more than 300 prisoners.
With the mobilization of the instructors, two days later, at least 250 people will choose to join the Eighth Route Army and become independent battalion reinforcements.
"Battalion commander, the little devil has been supplied with ammunition today, and he will definitely continue to attack the hinterland of the base tomorrow." Liu Wenxuan reminded.
"That's for sure!" Zhao Wen replied.
"They stayed here for a few days, and they didn't get anything out of it, except for the loss of their troops. If I were the commander of the devil, I would definitely leave this sad place immediately and continue to go deep into the hinterland of the base area to find fighters. ”
Liu Wenxuan's face slowly became solemn, and he looked at Zhao Wen and reminded: "After the devils continue to go deep into the base area, our combat pressure will definitely increase. ”
"The further you go inside, the denser the villages and towns become, and the more common people there are, and it will cost a lot of troops just to cover them."
Zhao Wen raised his eyebrows and replied: "Then let them go slowly!" ”
"All the infantry in the camp should take time to rest, and after dawn they will do whatever it takes to slow down their attack."
"All the artillery, including the first battalion, is assembled and on standby, and I will bite a piece of meat off the devil before he leaves."
Although the Japanese garrison and the original baggage brigade garrison were bombed all over the place, they were very safe.
Because of its proximity to the highway and the convenience of transfer, the seventy-two baggage trucks that had just arrived today continued to be arranged here.
Zhao Wen's goal tonight is them, to destroy one by one, and try to weaken the baggage reserves of the Japanese puppet army.
"Battalion commander, all the artillery is ready, the mortars we have equipped ourselves, plus the devils captured in the past few days, and the one battalion brought over, a total of three large-caliber mortars and 17 ordinary mortars." The commander of the firepower company found Zhao Wen and reported.
Looking at the Japanese garrison two kilometers away, I didn't notice anything, and as I did an hour ago, there was no change because of my arrival.
Zhao Wen knew that the little devil hadn't realized the danger yet.
Staring at the devil's station, he ordered with an expectant face: "According to the original battle plan, five shells per cannon will be fired as quickly as possible, and they will be transferred separately after the battle is finished." ”
"Yes, battalion commander......"
In less than five minutes, the sound of "booming ......" sounded in Zhao Wen's ears.
A total of twenty shells flew overhead and flew towards the Japanese garrison with a negligible screech.
The devil killed him, and he couldn't imagine that the baggage team station that had been attacked once would be attacked a second time.
Because this style of play is clearly contrary to military common sense.
Zhao Wen just did that.
The cannonballs whizzed down and exploded like thunder.
The flying firelight was particularly dazzling under the cover of night, and thick black smoke rose from the impact point, and the diffuse smoke quickly enveloped everything around the impact point......
In just one round of shelling, two large trucks were enveloped in artillery fire.
If it had ammunition on it, it would have exploded under the influence of high temperatures and flames......
The devils stationed here panicked, and rushed to the baggage trucks in a panic under the command of their respective officers, trying to pull them outside the artillery coverage area.
But it's too hard to do that.
The baggage cart and the ammunition and materials on the surface weighed 2,000 catties, and two mules and horses pulled together to make it move, and several people rushed over to push them away, and the difficulty was not ordinary.
The cart could not be pushed, and the soldiers ran around inside, which only made the garrison even more chaotic.
"Boom ......"
The second round of shells came very quickly, and before the cart was pushed, the shells had already fallen from the sky.
At the moment when the flames flew, several more carts were wrapped in flames and smoke.
"Boom ......"
Suddenly, an even more violent explosion rang out in the area covered by artillery fire, and then a large cloud of smoke could be seen rising into the air.
A big car was instantly wrapped in flames, and the ammunition box weighing hundreds of catties was thrown into the sky like a toy, and then smashed to the ground like a scattered flower by the Heavenly Maiden.
The ammunition boxes were full of shells, and although they were not yet fused, they could still be detonated by violent vibrations and high temperatures.
Many of the ammunition boxes exploded the moment they landed.
Twenty shells smashed into the garrison of the baggage team, and it was only possible to cause hundreds of shells to explode together.
The smoke of gunpowder filled the sky, and the flames soared into the sky......
More and more carts were enveloped in artillery fire, either exploding or igniting and turning into a raging fire.
The Wing Commander rushed out of the tent and glanced at the direction of the fire, knowing that the baggage brigade was under attack.
Thinking of the picture of the bombing of the baggage team a few days ago, his face quickly turned pale.
The baggage ammunition there was so important that I parked here and waited for days to get it.
If it is blown up again, the battle plan for attacking Lingqiu tomorrow will definitely be affected, and the entire attacking force will also be in crisis due to insufficient ammunition supply.
The wing commander was furious, and ordered in a hurry: "The artillery will immediately counterattack and cover the transfer of the baggage team......"
"The troops near the baggage team immediately reinforced the baggage team and helped them rescue the baggage ammunition, how much can be saved."
