Chapter 436: This one, it's worth betting!

Most of the officers and soldiers of the 1st Guard Battalion, who followed the task force to lurk outside Shucheng, looked a little depressed when they looked at the time that was constantly elapsing. Even if Hu Biao had said in advance that there was a good chance that there would be no battle tonight, it still seemed a little regretful.

Listening to the whispers from the sleeper team members from time to time, Hu Biao didn't say much. As long as they don't make a loud noise, they stay outside the city without worrying about being discovered by the little devils in the city. It's understandable to talk once in a while.

Qin Tianyou, who was squatting beside Hu Biao, looked at the team members who were lying on the ground or leaning on his body to rest with his eyes closed, and also asked in a low voice: "Detachment leader, do you think those boys in the city will do it tonight?" ”

"What do you think? Now that the decision has been left to them, they should be trusted. I think they should be able to do it, and the time will be chosen after most of the little devils have fallen asleep. In this weather, it is pleasant to hide in the cellar! ”

In order to ensure the safety of the underdog, the demolition team members ate and drank and lazard in the cellar. It was a hot summer, and although it was safe to nest in the cellar, the taste was still very uncomfortable. Since it's going to be blown up sooner or later, why don't you choose to blow it up?

After saying this, Hu Biao also quickly said: "Did you send someone over there in the north of the city?" ”

"It's been sent early! A combat platoon, as long as those boys come out, our people will go over to answer them! ”

"Good! Then keep waiting! Compared to the daytime, the weather is still more comfortable at night! ”

Hu Biao, who smiled, got up from time to time and carried a telescope to look at the every move of the Japanese army in the city. The little devil who was still walking back and forth on the city wall before will significantly reduce the number of patrols back and forth, but the fire in the city will never be extinguished.

Through these unquenchable fires, Hu Biao confirmed his previous guesses. To burn so many corpses abandoned in the city, it is estimated that many abandoned houses in the city may be demolished by the little devils.

Fortunately, Hu Biao did not think about occupying Shucheng, and for the task force, it was not suitable to defend the city at present. If you really do this, once the little devil finds out, you won't be able to escape if you want to, and you will be free to come and go outside the city.

Except for a small number of vigilant troops, it is necessary to concentrate their efforts, and most of the hidden troops that have not yet discovered the enemy's situation appear to be relatively relaxed. Even if there are more mosquitoes in the lurking area, most of the officers and soldiers who participated in the war are accustomed to this kind of life.

Just as everyone was drowsy from the cool evening breeze, a violent explosion suddenly sounded in the center of the city. Looking at the huge flames rising into the sky, the people inside and outside the city no longer had the intention of sleeping.

Compared with the combat members of the task force, they were still very calm, but the officers of the 1st Guard Battalion quickly said: "Don't be in a daze, prepare for battle!" Oh, my God! What the hell is going on in the city? How can there be an explosion at the end of the good end? ”

Earlier, he followed the task force to lurk outside the city, and the officers and men of the first guard battalion also felt a little puzzled. In their opinion, the little devils who have already entered the city have been tossed enough during the day, and they should not go out at will at night if they want to.

If they don't take the initiative to attack the city, then they may run for nothing tonight. Now seeing the sudden explosion in the city, the eyes of many officers couldn't help but look at Hu Biao, who was standing in front of the team and continued to observe with binoculars.

Soon, an officer said: "Tuanzao, this explosion can't be caused by them, right?" ”

"What do you think? Little devils don't blow themselves up, do they? ”

"Damn! These guys are too bold to go into the city and blow up devils. Aren't they afraid of being blocked by little devils? ”

"Haven't you all seen the ability of Chief Hu's subordinates? Don't talk, just watch honestly! ”

Lin Jian, who was questioned, had some guesses in his heart. Before leaving the city last night, the task force responsible for the finishing up of the palace left the city later than the guard regiment. The seized explosives were all confiscated by the task force.

If nothing else, after the departure of the guard regiment from Shucheng, the task force should have buried the captured explosives in the city in advance. Maybe the person who detonated the explosives at this moment should have been lurking in the city until this moment.

Seeing the doubts on Lin Jian's face, Hu Biao, who turned around, smiled and said, "Old Lin, let's come over and watch the play together!" This good show has just been staged, and it will be more lively later. Let the first battalion do a good job, and wait for the little devil to go out of the city to avoid the fire! ”

"Yes, sir!"

After calling the battalion commander of the first battalion, Lin Jian asked his subordinates to prepare for battle, and also followed Hu Biao to look at Shu Cheng, who was burning. Compared to the previous firelight, the fire is undoubtedly brighter at this moment.

"Sir, is this your handiwork?"

"Yes! The little devil is coming from afar, we must always do a good job of the friendship of the landlord! ”

After laughing, Hu Biao and all the officers and soldiers lurking outside the city once again shifted their eyes to Shucheng, which was not far away. And at this moment, in Shucheng, many little devils who had just fallen asleep were also awakened by the sound of a huge explosion.

The commander of the infantry brigade, who had also just fallen asleep, heard a violent explosion outside the house, and the whole person jumped up directly from the bed, and before he even had time to get dressed, he rushed directly into the door and said, "What's the matter?" The sound of explosions coming from there? ”

"General! It's the barracks, and there was a sudden explosion over there! ”

"Yaga! What's going on here? How could an explosion occur? ”

Faced with the questioning of the commander of the infantry brigade, no one could give him a concrete explanation. Just as the commander of the infantry brigade got dressed and gave the order to rush to the rescue of the soldiers in the blast zone, a new round of explosions was heard again.

Many little devils who were patrolling the streets were completely stunned when they looked at the sudden explosions on both sides of the street. In the face of such a sudden explosion, no matter how vigilant they are, they simply cannot prevent it.

At the same time, the commander of the infantry brigade, who had just left the command headquarters not long ago, looked at the huge explosion coming from behind him, as well as the temporary command headquarters that disappeared in the explosion, and the whole person was dumbfounded, and he immediately realized what was happening.

"Quick! Gather your troops and take shelter in the city! Damn, someone planted explosives in the city! Quick, get out of town! ”

"General, what about the supplies?"

"Yaga! Let's get out of town first! Keep staying in the city, do you want to be burned to death? ”

Realizing that an unknown amount of explosives must have been planted in the city, the commander of the infantry brigade was filled with deep fear. Especially seeing the deliberate rest before, it is completely reduced to a sea of fire at this moment, and the fear in my heart can be imagined.

If he hadn't brought someone over to check the explosion on this side of the barracks, it is estimated that he would have been buried in the fire. As soon as he thought that he had slept on the pile of explosives before, the commander of the infantry brigade also truly realized that the enemy in the shadows was really unguardable!

Seeing the explosions in the city from time to time, the little devil who had just entered the city was also completely in deep fear and uneasiness. In the face of the soldiers who died in the flames, no one dared to come to the rescue, so they could only flee the explosion zone in a hurry.

Compared with the fear and anxiety of the little devils in the city, the officers and soldiers of the task force who stayed outside the city said excitedly: "Beautiful! Well fried! It seems that our efforts have not been in vain, but I don't know how many little devils we can kill! ”

"It's better to bury them all!"

Listening to the discussions of the team members around him, Hu Biao, who had always observed the movement in the city, quickly said: "Sniper team, prepare to block, the little devil should be ready to go out of the city to hide!" Lin Jian, inform the troops, put the little devil close to fight! ”

"Yes, sir!"

Knowing that the little devil was really going out of the city, Lin Jian also seemed extremely excited. He knew very well that most of the little devils who escaped from the city at this moment had become frightened birds. They are still very good at beating water dogs.

At the same time, Hu Biao also smiled and said: "Pillar, cannon!" Wait a minute, listen to my orders, and adjust the range at the city gate! ”

"Understood!"

After receiving Hu Biao's order, Tian Tiezhu, who stayed by his side, immediately recruited a group of team members and began to set up the mortars in the open space behind the ambush position. There are mortars for ranged attacks, and sniper rifles and machine guns for melee combat.

If the little devil launches a counterattack, the first battalion of guards brought by Hu Biao will also give the little devil a head-on blow. If the little devil doesn't fight back, he must flee back to the city. Either way, the little devil will be extremely uncomfortable.

Although the Japanese army was well-trained, in the face of this sudden explosion of the whole city, many frightened little devils still looked at a loss. What frightened the Japanese army the most was the sound of explosions that followed.

With the increase in the number of explosions, the houses that were still intact before were now basically blown into ruins. The flames from the explosion, mixed with the wood of the collapsed building, burned brightly in the evening breeze.

The entire Shu City, after explosions again and again, suddenly turned into a burning fire city. At the urging of the commander of the infantry brigade, countless surviving little devils could only flee to the city gate in a hurry, hoping to escape the fate of being burned to death in the city.

Hu Biao, who observed the situation in the city through a telescope, could also see some of the situation of the Japanese army in the city with the help of the fire in the city. Realizing that the little devils in the city had been blown up, Hu Biao immediately said: "Send a report to the camp and let the rest of the guard regiment come quickly!" ”

"Detachment leader, are you planning to attack the city?"

"It depends! The little devils are now coming in our direction, and we will have a fight with them at the gates. If I get the chance, I don't mind going head-to-head with them. Without supplies, they won't last long! ”

"Yes, detachment leader!"

"By the way, transfer the two closest prisoner of war companies too! Damn, if you can cripple this infantry brigade, I'm afraid that the little devil will hurt even more! This one, it's worth betting! ”

Through the binoculars, I observed the little devils in the city, scurrying around like headless flies. This state undoubtedly told Hu Biao that the little devil in the city was stunned. At this moment, I am afraid that the little devils who will burn to death in the city will naturally not be able to carry a large number of supplies and ammunition.

Once the fire was exchanged, Hu Biao believed that the ammunition that the little devil carried with him should not be able to fight a few rounds. Maybe the little devil has more troops, but without ammunition supply, how long can the little devil hold out with only the ammunition he carries?

When the little devils run out of ammunition they carry, the weapons in their hands will be turned into burning sticks. In this way, even if Hu Biao sent his prisoner of war company, I believe that these so-called elite Japanese soldiers can also be beaten!
