Chapter 75 It's called an armored car
The devil flag bearer stood on top of a small dirt bag, waving two small red and blue flags.
The armored vehicles moved forward according to the flag of the standard-bearer.
After judging the wind speed and direction again, Zhao Zilong immediately adjusted the gauge on the Zhongzheng rifle.
He looked through the binoculars, aimed his crosshair at the standard-bearer, and shifted the muzzle of the gun a point to the left.
Squinting his eyes and having no distractions, Zhao Zilong's right thumb and index finger rubbed lightly a few times, and then calmly put his index finger on the cold trigger, and suddenly buckled.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out.
A golden bullet, through the early morning mist, cut a small arc in the air, and hit the chest of the devil's standard-bearer at once.
The devil's standard-bearer's eyes burst out, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't scream, and he pounced and fell to the ground.
"Well done!" Ma Dayong's eyes lit up, and he immediately gave Zhao Zilong a thumbs up.
Losing the command of the devil's standard-bearer, the three armored vehicles paused slightly, but they slowly separated, and the devil squad following behind also bent over and followed closely.
"Huh?" When Zhao Zilong saw it, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
He could now see that the three armored vehicles were not charging side by side towards the trench that was being defended by a company, but in three directions, encircling their entire position.
This is equivalent to a frontal charge by one armored vehicle in the middle, and the other two armored vehicles outflanked it, apparently trying to eat the position in one bite.
"Grandma's! What a devil's appetite! Zhang Long exclaimed.
"Humph!" Ma Dayong stared into the distance, but showed a hint of surprise: "Come on, little devil, see if you can be killed?" ”
Zhao Zilong couldn't help but be stunned when he heard it, but then he understood.
-
"Eight! Why don't they listen to me? ”
In a small high ground two kilometers away from the battlefield, Nagakugi, the Devil's Temporary Brigade, picked up a telescope and watched the movements of the armored vehicles.
Last night, the Nationalist army raided the camp and blew up artillery, armored vehicles and ammunition depots, and he was already angry in his heart. Later, he was sniped by Zhao Zilong, and the soldiers of the squad were killed or wounded, and he was even more angry in his heart, and he held his breath.
Of course, he also wanted to cancel the word temporary as soon as possible and officially become the captain, so he insisted on commanding on the battlefield despite his injuries.
When Kukugi found out that the three armored vehicles had not obeyed the new order and were going to concentrate their fire on a position, he immediately cursed angrily.
Yesterday, he had already reported the military situation to the above and requested artillery support, and promised to take the position held by the third battalion of the 262nd Regiment of the National Army. So, this morning, he asked the artillerymen to bombard all the shells on the positions without a single life.
After the shell bombardment, the conventional tactic was to use a small group of soldiers to test the opponent's battle situation, but Kukugi even saved this and directly ordered the armored vehicle to charge.
Before starting, he originally wanted to attack from three sides surrounded by armored vehicles, but then observed the actual situation on the position and found that the trenches on the east side were badly damaged by artillery shells, while the other two sides were relatively intact.
As a result, Kukugi re-ordered three armored vehicles to concentrate on the eastern position.
He believed that as long as the Xiangzhi army was captured, it would make the Chinese army disorganized, and when the time came, they would launch a general charge, and it would definitely be easy to defeat the Chinese army and occupy this position.
It is a pity that now seeing that the standard-bearer was killed by the enemy, three armored vehicles continued to advance according to the original plan.
So, he shouted in a hurry, and ordered another standard-bearer to rush to give the order.
Seeing the other standard-bearer leaving, Kukugi immediately turned around and asked the adjutant next to him: "Is that armored car still repaired?" ”
The adjutant hurriedly replied: "Our warriors are stepping up repairs. ”
"I'm asking if you've fixed it? If it's repaired, hurry up and go to the battlefield. Jiu Jiumu's face changed, and he immediately scolded loudly.
-
National-army positions on the slopes of a small hill.
Seeing the armored car speeding towards them, one of the sentries immediately shouted: "Devil iron car, iron car...... It's coming up! ”
Zhao Zilong was slightly stunned, he could hear that the young sentry's voice trembled a little.
Then, he saw that everyone's faces had changed, his body paused, and he hurriedly took his place in their respective bunkers.
Zhao Zilong raised the Zhongzheng rifle again and observed the distance through the binoculars.
In the withered grass and wilderness, the earthy yellow ironclad car was clearly visible. The long barrel was raised diagonally, facing them, and a small opening was made under the barrel, and a machine gun protruded.
Behind this iron guy was followed by a half-bent group of devil infantry.
"Platoon Commander Zhang, is this legless monster called an iron car?" A recruit asked Zhang Long in a whisper.
"It's called an armored car." Zhang Long replied: "This iron guy is very powerful, we have met several times in Shanghai. Not only is it fast and fierce, but it also has a thick skin and thick flesh, not to mention a rifle, even a heavy machine gun can't deal with it. ”
"What? Can't even hit a heavy machine gun? The recruit's eyes widened and his mouth widened.
"Hmmm! I'll try two shots later. Zhang Long nodded, his face solemn.
"Don't talk, concentrate." At this time, Ma Dayong shouted.
I don't know if it's because of the fast speed and the reason for pulling away from the team behind, the armored car suddenly slowed down, and the group of devil infantry in the back immediately ran up.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Zilong hurriedly shot.
Bang! Bang!
He shot the remaining two bullets at once, knocking down the two devils.
Although he hit the devil, the others couldn't hit it, because the distance between the two sides was a kilometer.
Although Zhao Zilong's marksmanship was accurate, he still couldn't stop the devil's attack alone.
Driven and covered by armored vehicles, the devils launched a charge towards the position step by step.
When the armored vehicle approached more than 200 meters, Zhang Long immediately raised the Type 92 heavy machine gun and fired fiercely.
Da-da-da-da
The high-speed spinning 7.7 mm bullets slammed into the iron sheet of the armored vehicle, ping into flames, sparks and bursts of green smoke.
The warriors saw a chill rise in their hearts.
Taking advantage of this, the devil's armored vehicles narrowed the distance again, and the two sides were less than five hundred meters.
Because the distance was closer, everyone started shooting at each other.
Woohoo Woo ......
Da Da Da ......
The sound of gunfire represents the official opening of the battle of life and death on the battlefield.
The fighters hid in the trenches and had cover, and although the devils were accurate in marksmanship, it was difficult to hit.
And because the devils are hiding behind armored vehicles, the distance is more than five hundred meters, and it is difficult for the fighters to hit them.
Bang! Bang! ……
At this time, the barrel of the armored car suddenly shot round black shells.
The shells hit the edge of the trenches, stirring up puffs of dirt and smoke.
Although the fighters had bunkers, they were also affected by the explosion of shells.
In an instant, two or three fighters were killed or wounded.
