Chapter 280: The First Battle of the Thirteenth Division (6)

"Tank...... Tanks of the Japanese! ”

The exclamations of soldiers rang out from the position, and as far as the naked eye could see, three Japanese Type 89 chariots were lining up and firing at the entrance of the village.

"Boom ......"

Two shells fell on the position at the entrance of the village, and the dust almost blocked Wu Zhuang's vision.

Soon, the communications soldier on the side also reported: "Company commander, the third platoon reports that Japanese tanks have also appeared behind the village, and they are approaching and shelling!" ”

"I see!" Wu Zhuang replied angrily.

It is clear to the Japanese tank Wu Zhuang that appeared, this Type 8*9 medium tank is equipped with a Type 90 57 mm tank gun, two 7.7 mm vehicle-mounted machine guns, 17 mm frontal armor, and 15 mm side armor. ”

Although this tank has the "reputation" of thin skin and big stuffing, this thin skin is also relative, and for their infantry company with no anti-armor ability, this tank is a lifeline. And the appearance of tanks also means that the Japanese can already charge them with impunity.

Looking at the Japanese 8*9 tanks that began to slowly advance towards them while firing their guns, Wu Zhuang's heart began to sink to the bottom, he took a deep breath and said to the communication soldiers beside him: "You immediately ask the second and third platoons, the M2 Browning heavy machine gun allocated to them is still not there?" ”

Wu Zhuang's question soon came to fruition.

"Sir...... The second platoon and the third platoon said that their heavy machine guns were all blown up by the devil's mortars in the battle just now, and now they only have a total of three machine guns that are barely suppressing the Japanese army. ”

"I see!" Wu Zhuang smiled bitterly. It seems that today they are in a position to escape.

"Bagaya Deer...... Who told you to come? ”

A mile away from Keiguchi Village, Tojo Shino yelled at Yoshino Nagasumi Nakasa, the captain of the chariot brigade that had just arrived.

The battle was about to be won, but the guys arrived. Whose credit is for this after the victory?

And this Yoshino Nakasa is not a good stubble, and he is also not to be outdone in the face of Tojo Shino, who is one level higher than himself: "Your Excellency Osa, I came to help in the battle on the orders of His Excellency the Division Commander, if you have any doubts, just send a report to His Excellency the Division Commander, as long as His Excellency the Division Commander gives the order, I will immediately order the chariot brigade to retreat!" ”

Don't look at Tojo Shino's military rank is one level higher than Yoshino Forever, but the two belong to different arms. Tojo Shino, the big sa of the cavalry wing, really can't care about Yoshino's permanent residence on the head of Nakasa.

"This damn bastard!" Tojo Shino was so angry that he clenched the war knife in his hand, if it wasn't for the battlefield at the moment, he would almost be tempted to draw his sword and fight him in a duel.

However, Tojo Shino did not lose his mind. After all, if there was really a matter of the captain of the cavalry wing fighting the captain of the chariot brigade, it was estimated that His Excellency the division commander would not hesitate to send himself to the military court.

In the end, Tojo Shino resisted the urge to draw his sword and pointed to the front, "Since you are already here, then this is good." You are responsible for covering us with artillery fire in the back. After I take this village, I will write a report for you on the merit. ”

In Tojo Shino's opinion, this is already his maximum tolerance, but Yoshino Nagaju does not appreciate it at all, he said lightly: "I'm sorry, our chariot brigade is born to charge, and it won't be four legs like some people, but after the real fight, it became two legs." We don't bother to do such things. As for being able to take the position of the Chi Na people, it is up to our own ability. ”

With that, he jumped back into the chariot. The lid was closed with a bang, and in a roar, a puff of black smoke came out of the butt of the Type 8*9 chariot and then rushed forward, leaving only Shino Tojo shino, who was trembling with anger.

"Yaga Yalu, this bastard who deserves to go to hell, how dare he talk to me like that, what does he think he is? His Majesty the Emperor? ”

The second captain of the second brigade on the side, Kotani Choji, asked, "Your Excellency, what should we do now?" ”

"What should I do?" Tojo Shino sneered: "Doesn't Yoshino Permanent Residence like to grab credit? Then let him grab enough, pass on my orders, everyone stop attacking, I want to see how he can take the position of the people of China with his dozens of scrap copper and rotten iron. ”

With the order given, a situation occurred that stunned both warring parties. The Japanese troops, who had been desperately attacking the village of Xikou, stopped their attack and retreated several hundred meters back, which also gave the already shaky defense line a respite.

After seeing the retreat of the cavalry wing next to him, Yoshino Nagaju did not panic, he leaned out of the turret and began to command the tank brigade with flags, and more than 20 chariots formed an attack formation and rushed towards the position of Xikou Village.

Seeing that more than twenty chariots not far away were charging towards his position, Wu Zhuang narrowed his eyes and was silent, so far his company had suffered more than half of the casualties, and it was obviously difficult to deal with these rumbling chariots with less than a hundred people. However, he was not too sad to die, and after taking a deep breath, he shouted again: "Demolition team prepare!" ”

"Attack!"

Following his order, two soldiers with a bundle of explosives bags composed of six M24 long-rod grenades in their arms rushed out of the position and bent forward, only to see them doing S-shaped movements flexibly while running, but it was obvious that the Japanese tanks had already spotted them, and soon a dense stream of bullets came up, and they soon fell in a pool of blood.

Wu Zhuang's fist slammed into the floating soil next to him, "Bastard...... The second group ......"

As soon as his words fell, before the soldiers next to him rushed out of the trench, an 8*9 chariot rushing to the front suddenly exploded with a bang, and the entire turret was washed into the air by a strong shock wave, and then fell heavily to the ground with a loud bang.

The sudden explosion made everyone stunned, weren't the two Demomen who had just attacked already been shot and killed, how could they still blow up the chariot in front?

Before people could come to their senses, there was another loud bang, and smoke rose from a Type 89 chariot on the right, and the whole chariot immediately burst into flames, and then the lid of the turret opened, and an armored soldier covered in fire came out of it, jumping to the ground and rolling on the ground in an attempt to extinguish the flames on his body.

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

At this moment, the distinctive sound of the MG-34 sounded from the road not far away, followed by a puff of dust, and several Tank No. 4, painted gray-green, slowly drove away, and the huge muzzle of the tank led by the tank still emitted a puff of green smoke. (To be continued.) )
