Chapter 723: Encounter

"How fucking do you dare to talk back!"

Yu Haowei raised his right hand angrily, so frightened that Xiao Sichuan quickly retracted his head, but caused a chuckle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the tanks of these years did not have a three-defense device, and from time to time wind and rain blew in through the gun barrel and some small gaps, making the tank a little wet and uncomfortable.

Yu Haowei impatiently threw aside the rag that wiped his hands, and asked the correspondent sitting on his left side anxiously: "Wang Xiaomao, have you contacted the regimental headquarters?" ”

"Nope!" Wang Xiaomao, who was constantly debugging the radio station, shook his head, "The weather is so bad now, the lightning is thundering, which makes the wireless signal easily affected, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to contact the regiment headquarters before the heavy rain is over." ”

"What about the plane, can you contact the reconnaissance plane in the sky to show us the way?"

Wang Xiaomao smiled bitterly: "Sir, the rain is so heavy that even those of us who are crawling on the ground are uncomfortable, and those people in the Air Force will not take off at the risk of being struck by lightning." ”

"Grass, what is this for?"

Yu Haowei scolded angrily, as a pioneer company, their task is to take the lead for the whole regiment and even the whole division, if even they are lost now, then the large army following behind is even more conceivable.

took out a waterproof map, looked at it through the dim light in the tank, and then took out a compass to look at the direction, Yu Haowei thought about it and patted Xiao Sichuan's shoulder in front of him and shouted: "Xiao Sichuan, you just drive along the north, Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, a heavy rain can stop Lao Tzu." ”

"Understood!"

Xiao Sichuan agreed, stepped on the accelerator with his right foot and pushed the joystick with his left hand, and the 25-ton tank let out a roar, turned a corner to the right and headed north, and more than a dozen No. 4 tanks behind them also hurriedly followed after seeing this......

The rain became heavier and heavier, and more than a dozen No. 4 tanks trudged through the muddy water with difficulty, and as if God was angry, lightning continued to explode in mid-air, and the sound of thunderous explosions frightened the tank crews, who had always been accustomed to life and death, turned pale. People with a little common sense know that thunder and lightning like to put on metal the most, and they are now staying in dozens of tons of iron lumps, if they are caught by lightning in the sky, there is nothing to say, the whole five people in the car will have to be reimbursed immediately.

After walking a few more miles, the tall loader Wang Zhiqiang finally couldn't help but plead with Yu Haowei: "Head, let's find a place to shelter from the rain, it's too fucking scary to march in this weather!" It would be terrible if lightning struck me, knowing that the back of my ass was full of shells. ”

"Yes, sir, this kind of weather march is too offended, let's wait until the rain stops before we hurry!" The gunners on the side also chimed in.

"Okay!"

Yu Haowei sighed lightly, he also knew that rushing in this weather was simply a joke with his life. gently patted Xiao Sichuan's shoulder and said loudly, "Xiao Sichuan, hurry up and find a village on the side of the road to stop and take shelter from the rain, and wait for the rain to stop before leaving." ”

"Great!" Xiao Sichuan responded loudly, and with his left hand, he quickly increased the gear to the fourth gear, and the No. 4 tank accelerated its speed and drove forward with a slight shock. I have to say that their luck was very good, after walking for a few minutes, they actually found a village, and Yu Haowei was overjoyed, and immediately commanded the whole company to rush towards the village......

Just as Yu Haowei was struggling along the muddy road with his forward company, there was also a team rushing on the same road from the north direction, but in the opposite direction.

"Taijun, this rain is too heavy, let's find a place to hide from the rain, and wait for the rain to stop before we hurry, right?"

A general wearing the uniform of a puppet Manchukuo lieutenant general pleaded with a Japanese major general who was drenched in body on a tall horse beside him: "This rain is too heavy, the soldiers will not be able to stand it if it goes on like this, once too many non-combat attrition is triggered, even if we arrive in time to Jinzhou troops, we will not be able to fight!" ”

The Japanese major general turned his head to look behind him, and behind him was a line of invisible formations, which were trudging through the muddy roads, and from time to time soldiers fell down because the road was too slippery, causing bursts of curses.

Although the Japanese major general wanted to order the troops to continue to hurry, he also knew that if he forcibly ordered the troops to hurry, it would easily cause the soldiers to force a backlash, and it would be bad if something really happened.

Thinking of this, the Japanese major general reluctantly nodded, "Zhang Sang, the command's order to us is to rush to Jinzhou before this afternoon, if we delay the command's order, you know what the consequences will be." I remember that there was a village a little further ahead, and when we got to the village, we rested for an hour, and after half an hour, the troops had to continue to move forward, regardless of the rain, you understand? ”

"Yes, yes...... I understand, I understand. The puppet lieutenant general nodded again and again after being overjoyed, and he quickly conveyed the order, and the whole team immediately let out bursts of cheers and hurried forward......

At this time, more than a dozen muddy tanks were parked in the barn in front of a village, and the raindrops of beans kept washing the tanks, slowly washing out the original color of the tanks. Ignoring the shouts and scolding of the adults, many naughty children braved the heavy rain and ran happily around these tanks on the threshing floor, and they had never seen these things before, and they had no idea how powerful these seemingly bulky iron lumps were.

Some ragged adults stood under the eaves and looked curiously at the hideous-looking steel monsters parked on the rice field, the military masters in gray military uniforms, and the blue sky and white sun badge clearly on the tank. Those who are old can't remember how many years they haven't seen this badge, and some young people in their teens and twenties have never seen such a badge at all, and they are looking down and asking the old people around them.

The old men whispered answers to the questions raised by the young people around them with complicated expressions.

Xiao Sichuan, who was holding a pile of firewood in his arms, pushed open the wooden door of a large room. The smell of burning wood mixed with a burnt smell came to the face, followed by the less sinister smell of kerosene and tobacco, and half of the faces of the people inside had been blackened.

Seeing Xiao Sichuan coming in, Yu Haowei, who was holding a ceramic water cup roasting on the fire, asked him: "Xiao Sichuan, have the sentry posts outside been arranged?" ”

Xiao Sichuan nodded: "Don't worry, the sentry posts have been arranged, and I saw Platoon Commander Zhang with two tanks on duty at the head and end of the village respectively." ”

"That's good!" Yu Haowei said: "This place has been occupied by devils for more than ten years, and no one knows who is the devil's person in the village, in case someone sneaks out to report to the devil, it will be troublesome." ”

Although it is very unlikely that the villagers want to run out to ventilate and report the news in such bad weather, Yu Haowei still made arrangements very cautiously.

Xiao Sichuan just threw a pile of firewood in his arms to the ground, the door was pushed open again, and a cool breeze came in Zhang Ziniu, the deputy company commander of the forward company, only to see Zhang Ziniu hurriedly walked to Yu Haowei's side and said with a panicked look: "Sir, I just asked the villagers here, we are going the wrong way." ”

"Taken the wrong path?"

Yu Haowei frowned, put the porcelain cup in his hand on the ground and looked up and asked, "Where are we now?" ”

Zhang Ziniu took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "We have already bypassed Jinzhou and arrived behind Jinzhou?" ”

"What...... How is this possible? Yu Hao Wei Teng stood up, "We have been following the road indicated on the map, how can we go around to the back of Jinzhou?" ”

Zhang Ziniu spread his hands helplessly: "I also asked the villagers here, and they said that this road had been rerouted by the Japanese himself a few years ago, but the map we used was the old map more than ten years ago, so it was wrong." ”

"What the hell are these bastards from the MIA doing?" Yu Haowei was so angry that he immediately scolded.

Zhang Ziniu looked at Yu Haowei, who was flushed with anger, and didn't know what to say, strictly speaking, this kind of thing can't be blamed entirely on the Military Intelligence Bureau, after all, maps are sensitive military secrets in any country in this era, and the Military Intelligence Bureau has done its best to get the military map of more than ten years ago in a short period of time.

"Sir, what should we do now?" Zhang Ziniu asked with some concern.

"What else can I do!" Yu Haowei said angrily: "Now it's raining so heavily in this ghost weather, and it's lightning and thunder, we can't even contact the regiment headquarters, so we can only wait until the rain stops." ”

Speaking of this, Yu Haowei couldn't help but sit on the ground again with some chagrin, took a sip of coffee, and a bitter and strange taste came to his taste buds, and he couldn't help but scold again.

"Phew, these foreigners' stuff is fucking unpalatable."

"Sir, if you don't like it, you can stop drinking." Zhang Ziniu smiled and joked, but was blinded by Yu Haowei.

"You're light, if you don't drink this thing, you'll get me something else instead."

In addition to the relatively generous salary, the logistics department will also send two boxes of cigarettes, a box of chocolates, and a bag of instant coffee and a small packet of sugar to each soldier every week.

Of course, the taste of instant coffee is naturally not very good, and many soldiers said that they were not used to drinking it when they first started drinking it. However, although this thing tastes a little weird, it has one of the biggest advantages, that is, refreshing, especially for tank soldiers, after a long march, tank soldiers are generally very tired, at this time can drink a cup of strong coffee, the whole person's spirit will be much better, so drinking and drinking a lot of soldiers actually like this foreign thing.

After a cup of hot coffee, Yu Haowei felt a lot more energetic. At this time, he had already dried his wet clothes, put the empty cup on the ground, and after fighting, he pushed open the door, and suddenly the cool breeze carried raindrops from the door to blow the room, causing a burst of complaints and even curses from the soldiers in the house.

Yu Haowei smiled disapprerovingly, he looked at the open space of the threshing floor outside for a while, and an idea seemed to flash in his mind but it flashed away, which made him a little annoyed, and he thought hard for a while and didn't think clearly what was in his mind just now.

Just as Yu Haowei was scratching his head in some distress, there was a faint sound outside, but because the distance was a little far, and the wind and rain were too loud, he couldn't hear it very clearly for a while.

"Huh......"

Yu Haowei, who was about to close the door, suddenly erected his ears, and then his face quickly changed, because he had already distinguished that the continuous sound like tearing an oilcloth in the wind and rain was the unique gunfire of the MG34 machine gun.

Yu Haowei, whose face changed greatly, almost hissed and roared as hard as he could: "There is a situation, everyone hurry up and get into the tank!" ”

For military personnel, the sound of a gun is an order. There was no need for Yu Haowei to speak, the soldiers in the house rushed out of the house one by one, and in the rest of the room, hundreds of tank soldiers also rushed out at the same time, their movements were so fast, in less than two minutes, more than ten No. 4 tanks parked in the barn began to roar, and under the leadership of Yu Haowei, the tanks drove towards the place where the gunshots rang out.

"Titicaca...... ...... Titicaca"

MG34's characteristic gunshot still echoed at the end of the village, and the dense gunfire was like a magnet to attract both sides.

"Baga, what's going on, how can there be a chariot of the Chi Na people here?"

Standing next to a ridge less than 500 meters outside the entrance of the village, a Japanese major general named Maya Masuda was angrily scolding Zhang Haipeng in front of him.

Zhang Haipeng was the commander who led the First Division of the Manchukuo Army to reinforce Jinzhou, while Maya Masuda next to him was an adviser sent by the Japanese Kwantung Army Command. Although he was nominally an advisor, in fact, the real command of the troops was in the hands of Maya Masuda and the Japanese officers of the group of Japanese advisers he brought.

Masuda Maya and Zhang Haipeng originally planned to take the troops into the village to rest for a while and then continue on their way, but they never thought that as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw a tank pestle in the middle of the intersection, because the rain was so dense that they could not see the marks on the tank clearly, and the soldiers of the puppet Manchukuo, who had been drenched in heavy rain and had become dull in their brains, rushed forward to greet the tank, but they were greeted by a fatal rain of bullets.

After being knocked down by the rain of bullets, the soldiers of the puppet Manchukuo finally came to their senses, the chariot at the entrance of the village turned out to be the enemy's, and now the soldiers of the entire first division all blew up, under the orders of the officers, hundreds of soldiers began to attack the tank, and countless bullets rained towards the tank, but it is a pity that no matter how dense the bullet rain is, it is useless, and the bullets that are fatal to the human body can only make a crisp sound when they hit the armor of the tank, Then I don't know where it was bounced.
