Chapter 104: The Boiling Harbor

According to the earlier operational arrangements, the three combat teams that received two mortars arrived at their respective intended attack positions. Looking at the attack target shrouded in drizzle not far away, all the combatants looked serious.

With the strength of a guard platoon, the attack force is enough for a small devil as many as a brigade, how can the soldiers who are all veterans not know how big the risk is. But now that they have come, it is impossible for the soldiers to retreat.

Maybe it's the rain tonight, which makes the little devils guarding the city feel a little cool, and the little devils who are in charge of patrolling and guarding, the footsteps through the streets are also a little hurried. Even with a raincoat, I still feel that the air is cold.

The shopkeeper of the foreign bank, who had been in secret contact with Zhao Xian earlier, stood in the attic of the foreign bank, looked at the ships moored at the dock in the distance and the searchlights that crossed from time to time, and said with a little expectation: "Can these people really complete the combat goal?" ”

As a hidden stake planted in Runzhou City by the military commander, Zhu Licheng, codenamed 'Flying Bird', is also a veteran military commander who has been lurking for many years. Even if his figure is no longer as handsome as he was back then, Zhu Licheng's heart still remains loyal to the country.

Knowing that Zhao Xian and his entourage came here to blow up the strategic materials temporarily stored at the dock by the little devils, Zhu Licheng also felt that these people were extremely bold. It would not be easy to blow up the material warehouse that the little devils attach so much importance to.

At the slightest movement, the little devils stationed in the military camp in the city came with a large group of people. When the time comes, with the troops stationed at the pier, under the front and rear attacks, the attackers are afraid that it will be difficult to break out of the encirclement unless they jump into the river to escape.

Originally, Zhu Licheng wanted to know more about the action plan, but Zhao Xian also said cautiously: "I'm very sorry! I'm here this time just to liaise with you, and at the same time to learn about the situation of some little devils in the city, and it's really inconvenient to disclose too much about the combat mission. ”

Such a statement also made Zhu Licheng speculate whether Zhao Xian and these people were death squads sent by the military commander. Only with the attitude of not succeeding will you make such a crazy move. The problem is that this may not necessarily be successful.

In order to ensure the safety of the materials transported from the rear, Zhu Licheng also knew the degree of protection of the wharf and cargo warehouse by the little devils. The mere machine-gun emplacement in front of the warehouse would bleed the attackers.

didn't know that at this moment, someone was looking forward to Hu Biao, who was looking forward to the start of the battle, and he joined Hu Minyi and his party very smoothly. Looking at Hu Biao, who had returned safely, Hu Minyi and others, who had been dormant for a long time, also breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Hu Biao, who returned to the team, glanced at the container dock heavily defended by the little devils, and said in a calm tone: "Prepare for battle!" ”

"Yes!"

The combat team members who received the order all tightened their weapons in their hands without exception. In order to ensure that the warehouse was raided as quickly as possible, the weapons that Hu Biao equipped Hu Minyi and others with were almost all Thomson submachine guns.

These submachine guns were also purchased by Hu Biao from his friend Brooke in Shanghai earlier. Fifty sticks were actually purchased, but the only ones that could really be used were the ten that were used by Xu Sandao and others earlier.

As for the bullets, Hu Biao even asked Brooke to empty the ammunition warehouse. To put it simply, if he fights a few battles once in a while, Hu Biao doesn't have to worry about the lack of ammunition. It really doesn't work, and light machine guns are also used instead.

It's just that in melee combat, submachine guns are a bit more agile than light machine guns. Even the lightest light machine gun is much heavier than a submachine gun. When firing in the hand, the submachine gun fights with more firepower and stability.

"Minyi, you and I are each responsible for an artillery, you are responsible for conventional ammunition, and I am responsible for special ammunition. The first round of shells, if they hit the target accurately, then as quickly as possible, they will empty the shells in the artillery box next to you, remember? ”

"Yes, battalion commander! Remember! ”

Everything was ready, and the dozen or so fighters who followed Hu Biao were also ready to attack. The gas masks that had been given to them earlier were also carried by the fighters in their hands, ready to be worn on their faces at any time.

Even considering that it will rain tonight, there is a possibility that the special bomb fired will melt into the muddy water. In order to prevent the soldiers from being poisoned, Hu Biao also distributed a pair of high rain boots to all the fighters. This way, you don't have to worry about getting mustard gas from wet shoes.

The angle of the mortar was fine-tuned again, and after confirming that there was no problem, Hu Biao and Hu Minyi were in charge of a mortar. They all hold a cannonball in their hands, waiting to be stuffed into the barrel at any time.

As time passed little by little, Xu Sandao and the others lurking in the city also looked at the direction of the dock. According to Hu Biao's prior confession, once there was an explosion on the dock, they would prepare to shell the barracks of the little devils.

Just when everyone was expecting the moment when the explosion sounded, the lit alcohol lamp on the ship that Hu Biao visited earlier finally succeeded in igniting the hemp rope above in a smoky way. As the hemp rope was lit, the fuse on the side was lit with it.

The sizzling fuse soon burned to the end. As the detonator is detonated, the explosives next to it react. Correspondingly, in the originally silent port, a huge explosion and fire were heard in an instant.

The little devil stationed on the dock and cargo yard looked at the ship that suddenly made a huge explosion, and there was a fire that burst into the sky, and his expression was extremely stunned. I really can't understand why the ship suddenly blew itself up?

"Alert! Alert! Enemy attack! Someone has infiltrated the docks, ready to fight back! Fast! ”

The little devil officer in charge of the sentry knew very well that it was impossible for a ship anchored in the harbor to have a self-explosion accident. Then there is only one explanation, someone sneaked into the harbor and even boarded the ship, creating this explosion.

With the sound of the terrible siren, the little devils who were originally resting also rushed out of the barracks one after another to assemble. Urging the little devils to quickly complete the assembly, there are also continuous explosions, which shocked the little devils like a horn.

Every time he heard the sound of an explosion, the little devil in charge of the guard patrol couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth. The reason is that these explosions came from warships anchored in the harbor. Every time it explodes, it means that they have another warship blown up.

Even many little devils who rushed out of the barracks and looked at the sky-high flame warship couldn't help but cry out sadly: "Baga! Our warship is finished! Damn, who the hell dared to blow up our warship? ”

Even if these ships are inland river ships, they cannot be compared with large cruisers with a displacement of several thousand tons. But with these inland river ships, the Japanese troops stationed at the pier did not have to worry about the attack from the river.

As the saying goes, it's good to 'rob while the fire is on', looking at the little devils stationed at the dock, they rushed out of the dormitory one after another and ran outside to gather. Hu Biao, who had already set up the mortar, said unusually calmly: "Prepare!" Three, two, one, put! ”

As soon as the word came out, the mortar shell in his hand fell quickly into the barrel, and in an instant, there was a crisp sound of 'tom', and the shell that was successfully fired shot out of the barrel quickly and fell towards the target area in front.

The attention of many little devils who are assembling is attracted by the bombed ships in the port. By the time someone saw what appeared to be two UFOs landing in front of them, they had already smashed into the assembled group.

'Boom' two explosions sounded, and the little devil in the explosion area suddenly let out a scream of a ghost crying wolf. At the same time, the officers of many little devils immediately shouted: "Shelling! Spread out! Stay out of the fire! ”

Although the little devil's reaction was fast, Hu Biao was not as slow as Hu Minyi's movements. After confirming that the shells had hit the target accurately, the two began to speed up their movements, and one after another, the shells were stuffed into the barrels in front of them.

By the time the second round of shells fell, one of them exploded again, while the other did not seem to explode. The curious little devil looked at the shell that landed and did not explode, and was glad that the shell would not be a stinky bomb, but the shell sprayed smoke out.

Looking at the yellow* gas coming out of the 'stink bomb', some stunned little devils took two breaths and said, "It stinks!" ”

As a result, soon an officer screamed again: "Baga! It's a special bomb! Quick, spread out! Hurry up and find a gas mask, this is a special bomb! Cover your mouth and nose and don't inhale. These gases are deadly poisonous gases! ”

Knowing that the stink bomb that did not explode turned out to be a special bomb with amazing lethality, these little devils who were awakened by the explosion also became panicked instantly. At the same time, one shell after another still kept hitting the little devil's station.

Until the two boxes of shells specially prepared were all wiped out by Hu Biao and Hu Minyi. The machine gun position, which was originally manned, was no longer visible at this moment. All the little devils, desperately looking for gas masks.

The little devil station that smashed into the twelve special bombs was also shrouded in a cloud of yellow smoke. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hu Biao immediately ordered: "Wear a gas mask and prepare to attack!" ”

"Yes!"

"Let's go! In one go, rush into the warehouse defended by the little devils and kill all the little devils inside! ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

After the signature three 'kills', the soldier wearing a gas mask followed Hu Minyi with a submachine gun and rushed to the area shrouded in yellow smoke. At the same time, in the camp of the little devils in the city, the same artillery raid was also staged!
