Chapter 320: Plans are not as good as change

In order to ensure the smooth operation of the robbery of the military columns, Hu Biao had to arrange the order and timing of the attack. When the military column arrived at the location of the pillbox was also related to whether the operation could be successfully completed. The slightest mistake will undo all the work.

A reconnaissance team was dispatched in advance to carry a radio station out of Zaozhuang to carry out reconnaissance, with the purpose of confirming the exact time when the train arrived at the place of operation. Reserve time to deal with the Japanese troops stationed in the bunker.

Just when Hu Biao successfully solved the two patrols sent by the bunker and successfully replaced his own people. The reconnaissance team sent another telegram informing them that the second train was close to the first train.

Receiving the news from the team members, Hu Biao was also very surprised: "The little devil is yin enough!" The two trains are so close that even if one train is attacked and an accident occurs, the escort troops of the next train can provide timely support. ”

"Captain, what now?"

Qin Tianyou, who was staying next to him, also knew that this situation was somewhat unexpected by Hu Biao. If this matter is not handled well, there is a real possibility that major changes will happen. If one is not good, they will be in trouble with the Eighth Route Army.

Fortunately, Hu Biao thought about it and said, "The matter has come to this!" It's useless to worry! From the explosion zone we set up to the area where the Eighth Route Army set up an ambush, it should take about ten minutes for the train to run normally.

If the two trains were really close together, it might save us a lot of time. Inform the demolition team that the plan remains the same, and let the first train pass. As soon as the second train arrived, the blasting was carried out as planned.

If the second train fails to reach the blast zone, then we will attack. Let Qian Zhong bring in more machine gunners. Once the train stops, they can't turn the sky either. When the time comes, block them in the train and fight! ”

"If you attack, the troops are afraid that there will be casualties!"

"Nothing is expected! Since it is a war, there will always be casualties. Sometimes, necessary casualties are unavoidable. Inform the patrol team that if gunshots are heard from the train derailment ahead, they will immediately return to the bunker and launch a melee raid! ”

"Understood!"

Hu Biao, who quickly adjusted the battle plan, put the team members who had been concentrated in the blasting area earlier more in the pillbox area. The machine gunners selected by Qian Zhong were all lurking on both sides of the railway, quietly waiting for the arrival of the train.

At this moment, the Zaozhuang Garrison Headquarters is still brightly lit, and most of the garrison officers and the little devils in the barracks have not rested. The cars used to transport goods and troops were all parked in the barracks, waiting to be attacked.

Seeing the garrison officer with a somewhat dignified expression, the adjutant who brought him a cup of strong tea also comforted: "Your Excellency the garrison officer, the train is about to enter our defense area, and the troops on guard along the way have not found anything abnormal!" ”

"As long as the train doesn't leave our zone safely, then we can't let our guard down. Wait another hour, wait for the two military trains to pass safely through our defense area, and then notify the barracks and let our warriors wash and rest! ”

"Hey!"

The previous coal mine and railway accidents occurred one after another, and as the garrison officer of Zaozhuang, he was indeed reprimanded by the above. Fortunately, the above also knows that the garrison officer cannot be blamed for this. If there is a large territory, it will be difficult for the Japanese army to control it completely.

However, this time the railway was successfully repaired, the military train set off again, and the division and regimental generals who were fighting on the front line with the baggage troops sent telegrams to Zaozhuang, hoping that they would ensure that the military trains arrived at their destination safely and that no mistakes could be made.

If something happens again, he, the garrison officer, will also be at the end of it. In this life, it is estimated that there is no chance of being promoted to general, and whether he can keep his current position will be unknown. In the Japanese army, the loser is not respected!

A team under the command of Hu Minyi, also lurking in the city, was also anxiously waiting for news. Before nightfall, he received combat instructions from Hu Biao, and Hu Minyi also knew that his work seemed dangerous, but it was actually very safe.

At this moment, the place where they are hiding is a safe spot that Guo Ziming, an underground traffic officer in Zaozhuang, found for them. After receiving Hu Biao's instruction to 'start the alarm clock', Hu Minyi instructed his team members to start diving into the night.

Each soldier carries a time bomb and hides in the dark corners of the city, quietly waiting for the signal to arrive. During the time they entered the city, they already knew the frequency of Japanese patrols in the city, and they also knew that the little devils in those places did not pay attention.

The two military trains, which attracted everyone's attention, finally arrived safely in Zaozhuang, and on the first train, the Japanese soldiers in charge of vigilance also watched the situation around the railway vigilantly, and the two little devils who were in charge of driving also seemed very focused.

Looking at the little devil standing by the railway and saluting, the little devil machine gunner lying on the roof of the carriage also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. For these little Imp Heavys, seeing patrols on the railroad meant that the area was safe.

On the other hand, Hu Biao, Lin Dingyuan and others who were lurking near the bunker area also heard the sound of steam trains getting closer and closer. The little devil stationed in the bunker, standing on the top of the bunker, also quietly watched the arrival of the train.

At this time, the combat team members who pretended to be little devils in charge of railway patrol also stood in the area not far from the bunker, staring at the trains coming from a distance, as well as those little devils lying on the train carriages.

The combat team members standing on both sides of the railway looked at the little devil machine gunners lying on the carriage, and also scolded with a smile: "These little devils seem to be really guarded." I even moved the machine gun positions to the top of the train! ”

"It's normal! When we were in Runzhou before, we encountered this situation. The first train is gone, brothers, ready to work! Next, get ready to raid the little devil's bunker, and as soon as the gun goes off in front of you, you will get into action! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

With the first military train, the defense area where the two pillboxes were located was safely passed, and the Japanese squad leader in the pillbox hurriedly rang the phone. After the phone was connected, the team leader also hurriedly said: "Report to Your Excellency the garrison officer, the first train passed through our defense area safely!" ”

"Yo Breath! Good work, keep on guard! ”

"Hey!"

Hang up the call from the first bunker post, and the call from the second bunker sentry also comes in. At the same time, the little devil sentry in the first bunker saw the second military column roaring from a distance again.

Seeing this scene, the little devil was also very surprised and said: "Why are these two military trains so close?" ”

In contrast, Hu Biao quickly said: "Demolition group, prepare!" Damn, hopefully everything will come in time! ”

In Hu Biao's opinion, the two trains that are not far away before and after are indeed a little close. If the previous train had not derailed, and his side had started to explode early, the first train might not derail and brake urgently.

In that case, the guerrilla detachment lurking in the derailment area will face intact escort troops. If the first train succeeds in derailing and the second train does not reach the blast zone, then Hu Biao must be prepared for a strong attack.

If he could choose, Hu Biao would rather choose the first train to derail first, and he led the team to storm the second train. In Hu Biao's view, in that case, the guerrilla detachment would be less pressurized. In terms of combat effectiveness, the guerrilla detachment was relatively weak.

Although the Zaozhuang detachment was formed by prisoners of war, these prisoners of war had actual combat experience, and their weapons and equipment and training were much better than those of the guerrillas. On the other hand, the Lunan guerrilla detachment, the only ones who really have combat effectiveness may be the veterans brought by Lin Dingyuan.

Even though the guerrillas fought bravely, Hu Biao still did not want to make the guerrilla detachment pay a heavy price in order to rob a military train. In Hu Biao's principle, human life is sometimes far more important than materials!

Coming to the blasting lurking area with the assault team, Hu Biao said very directly: "Give me the detonator, everyone is ready to fight!" ”

"Yes, Captain!"

In order to choose the best time to blast, Hu Biao felt that it was better to control the blaster himself. If the previous train fails to reach the derailment zone, then the train will be completely destroyed and the guerrilla detachment will be sent to support it.

With four combat companies and a reserve company brought by Qian Zhong, Hu Biao is still quite confident. If casualties could not be avoided, then Hu Biao could only choose a combat method with fewer combat casualties.

At the same time, Lin Dingyuan, who was lurking in the derailment area, and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were also staring at the military train that was about to arrive. Looking at the distant lights, many soldiers involuntarily clenched their weapons in their hands, waiting for the moment of charge.

According to Tian Tiezhu's previous confession, Lin Dingyuan selected machine gunners from the detachment and formed a machine gun squad to act as an assault team to encircle and suppress the Japanese army. Coupled with the five-person team brought by Tian Tiezhu, Lin Dingyuan felt that the hope of winning should not be small.

"Ready, the train is coming! Listen to my orders, as soon as the train derails, rush over to me immediately! ”

"Yes, Chief of Staff!"

Considering the limited combat level of the new fighters in the detachment, the commandos selected by Lin Dingyuan were all veterans brought by himself without exception. Only veterans can maintain a relatively stable and calm mind when fighting.

If you are a new recruit, your ability to resist pressure is still slightly inferior. Regarding Lin Dingyuan's arrangement, Tian Tiezhu and the others did not speak, but each held the submachine gun in his hand tightly and waited for the moment of train derailment.

Just when Lin Dingyuan and others were expecting the train to derail, the second train was the first to enter the explosion zone. Looking at the locomotive leaving the blasting area, the commandos thought that Hu Biao would press the detonation button, but Hu Biao still stared at the train calmly.

Just when the team members were surprised, Hu Biao said softly: "Prepare!" Explosion! ”

Through the observation of the carriage of the military train, Hu Biao soon discovered the carriage where the escort troops were located. When the two carriages arrived at the blasting area, Hu Biao immediately pressed the detonation button. With a violent explosion, the moving train instantly broke in two.

In the torn carriage, you can see the little devils who were blown away. The combat team members lying on both sides of the railway, almost without looking, imagine that they all know that the little devils in those two carriages, I am afraid that there will be no more people left alive in such an explosion!
