Chapter 115: Arrived in Time
"Boom ......"
A cannonball landed next to Hirota Ishii's chariot, and although Ishii Hirota was sitting in the chariot, protected by steel, he did not suffer any damage, but he still felt a shake in the chariot, which he knew was the vibration of a huge shock wave as it swept through the chariot.
When Ishii Hirota, who came back to his senses, looked out from the lookout hole, and happened to see three soldiers not far away who were blown up into the air by the shock wave of the shell, he couldn't help but shout: "Impossible, this is the power of large-caliber artillery, how can the people of China have large-caliber artillery!" ”
Through the two days of fighting, Ishii Hirota knew very well that the national army on the opposite side did not have any heavy equipment, at best, only a few 60 caliber mortars, and there was no threat to his own combat vehicles at all. Judging from what he had just seen, the explosions were at least 100 millimeters in caliber, which made him begin to panic. Shells with a caliber of more than 100 mm can pose a threat to the vehicle if the point of explosion is too close to the vehicle.
"No, you have to hurry up and wave the flag to the chariots behind you and let the chariots disperse!" As soon as this thought came to Hirota's mind, a violent explosion sounded from the front.
Ishii Hirota saw that a Type 89 chariot that had just run to the front of the national army's position to shoot at close range exploded, and a flash of fire rose into the sky, followed by the entire turret of this chariot flying into the sky, Ishii Hirota knew that this must be the result of the ammunition in the chariot being detonated.
"What the hell is this ......?"
Before he could finish his sentence, two more chariots that were speeding forward shook twice like swings and then stopped on the road, and then the whole chariot began to emit black smoke.
"This ...... This is...... This is an anti-tank gun for the China! ”
At this time, Ishii Hirota immediately understood that the other side must have used anti-tank guns, otherwise his own side would not have been destroyed one after another.
"Quick...... Reversing...... Reverse immediately......"
As soon as he saw that the other party actually had an anti-tank gun, Hirota Ishii, who was terrified, immediately howled. Urging the driver to retreat immediately, he forgot to raise the flag to inform the rest of the chariot convoy.
As a result, there was a strange thing on the battlefield, when dozens of vehicles were charging forward, but one of them retreated, and this behavior seemed very strange in the eyes of many commanders.
A clever commander saw that the chariot with the command flag was retreating. Immediately stopped advancing and began to retreat with the command vehicle, while some of the chariots that rushed up or did not notice anything unusual were still rushing forward, and there was chaos on the battlefield for a while.
As the trumpet sounded, more and more soldiers in German uniforms rushed into the positions of the 6th, 7th, and 7th regiments, and then shot forward with their weapons.
At this time, Tan Di and Ye Xianggao were already a little stunned, especially although Tan Di had long known that reinforcements would arrive, but he never imagined that the appearance of these reinforcements would make such a big noise, looking at these well-equipped soldiers, he couldn't believe that this would be a security regiment.
"Quick...... Hurry up and push the cannon over! ”
That's when it happened. A sharp voice came from behind, and Tan Di looked back to see that it was five or six soldiers pushing a low cannon towards them.
Seeing this small cannon, Tan Di's eyes lit up instantly: "Battle defense artillery? ”
Tan Di is no stranger to this kind of cannon, he saw this kind of cannon when he was studying at the Central Army University in the early years, but this kind of cannon is scarce. The weak industrial base in China cannot be copied and can only rely on imports, so it is impossible for ordinary troops to equip them at all, why do these security regiments also have anti-war artillery?
Just when Tan Di was surprised. He saw the second and third anti-aircraft guns appear in front of his eyes. Soon, the first battle defense gun was erected. After the gunners fixed the gun, one of the gunners immediately opened the bolt to reveal the swarthy chamber. The loader, who had already opened the shell box, immediately grabbed a long, copper-colored shell and stuffed it into the chamber, and then the bolt snapped together, and then the bolt closed.
A gunner brought his eyes to the scope, shook the high and low machine to adjust the height and direction as he aimed, and then pulled the gun rope. There was a muffled sound of tomshots from the barrel, and soon a dull explosion was heard in front of them, and a Type 89 chariot that was rushing towards them came to a stop.
The gunner observed it for a moment and said with some annoyance: "I missed, but it only hit their tracks." Hurry up and reload and keep firing! ”
At this time, Tan Di and Ye Xianggao on the side and the soldiers of the 159th Division were also stunned, once upon a time, they had to pay the price of dozens of people or even a company in order to blow up a Japanese tank, but these people just shot lightly, and these seemingly impregnable tanks were like fragile eggshells.
The Japanese army that was hit by a sudden blow soon fell into chaos, many chariots were in a hurry to retreat, while some chariots were still advancing, which also exposed many infantry who followed the chariots to the guns, and the soldiers who had long seen all this would be polite, and soon the rain of bullets swept over like splashing water, naming the exposed infantry one by one.
The loud trumpet of the charge still resounded in the position, and more and more soldiers entered the position. Not long after, a young colonel came to Tan Di, saluted him and said loudly: "Report to the chief, Su Jin, the head of the Independent Security Regiment of Shigu County, Shandong, has been ordered to come to report!" ”
Carefully looking at the officer standing in front of him with a straight face, Rao Yi Tan Di's city government couldn't help but be a little amazed at the other party's youth.
"You came here for reinforcements in the name of Chief Wu?"
"Report sir, yes!"
"Are you really a vigilante group?"
"Report sir, yes!"
After getting the other party's affirmative answer, Tan Di and Ye Xianggao beside him glanced at each other, and then returned a military salute with a solemn expression, and then held Su Jin's hand tightly and said sincerely: "Commander Su, I remember this favor today, I thank you on behalf of the tens of thousands of brothers of our 159th Division, if you hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid we would have suffered a big loss today." ”
And Ye Xianggao on the side was blushing, in fact, what Tan Di said was still light, if Su Jin and the security team didn't arrive in time, they would not only suffer a big loss, but they would probably collapse. (To be continued......)
