Boom, boom......

Seven or eight mountain cannons exploded in unison, and the cannonballs roared into the air, and the next moment they rumbled and exploded on several fortifications at the Tiger Killing Entrance......

Gunpowder smoke rose into the air, and shrapnel flew wildly......

The autumn offensive of the Japanese army against the Jindong detachment officially kicked off at this moment!

Looking at the fortifications on the Tiger Kill Pass that had obviously been reinforced with cement, and looking at the appearance that under the shelling of the Tiger Kill Pass, the faces of Matsui Tsumoto and the others couldn't help but twitch......

A few months ago, when they attacked the Tiger Kill, the fortifications of the Tiger Kill Mouth were far less solid than this, and they had already wasted all their strength to reluctantly take it, and now the other party actually reinforced the outer layer of the fortifications with cement, and also built a watchtower and a hidden fort with cement......

If he could, Matsui would have wanted to throw away the gun in his hand immediately, crying and shouting that he was going home......

It's just that they don't dare, because they don't have to look back, they seem to be able to feel the sinister gaze of Kudo, who directly appointed them as the vanguard.

Unlike Matsui Tunmoto's straightforward heart, Yohashi and the other team leaders were extremely impatient, and kept urging the two of them to give the order, so that they could immediately lead their troops to attack......

"Attack!"

Matsui Tunben gritted his teeth and gave the order to attack, and in his heart he scolded Yangqiao and the others for being bloody, saying that he was anxious that Nima was big, and he was so anxious to fight the war - hurry up and eat guns and be reincarnated?

But Yangqiao and the others didn't consider their mood at all, and at the first time the two of them gave the order, they howled wolf under the cover of artillery fire and rushed straight to the tiger killing position......

In the rumbling artillery fire, the entire ground of the Tiger Killing Mouth was shaking slightly.

At this moment, the team stationed in the Tiger Killing Mouth is the five hundred members of the Water First Main Battle Militia Team led by Cang Luqiang.

At this moment, the five hundred main battle militiamen were huddled in various bomb shelters dug close to the inside of the trenches, not only did they not appear frightened by the fierce artillery fire, but they were extremely excited, as if they were a little eager to rush out of the bomb craters and have a good fight with the devils......

If there are ordinary people who see their expressions, they will be extremely surprised, after all, if nothing else, just this courage to be fearless in the face of the most vicious devils is not something that ordinary teams can have, not to mention that they are just some militiamen who are not even regular soldiers!

There is a reason why this is so!

The policy propaganda of the Eighth Route Army, the strong spiritual armament, of course, is one aspect, but not all, there are other reasons!

The armed contingent of the detachment is divided into three categories, one of which is naturally the 1,7800 fighters under the leadership of the detachment, including the tank armored reinforcement company and the artillery company.

The remaining two categories are the main battle militia and the reserve militia!

And the fighters of the detachment, either fighting or training, the rest are all different, whether it is the main battle militia and the reserve militia, they are all semi-full-time, that is, when the detachment fights, they need to pick up guns and fight the enemy, and when there is no fighting, they have to pick up a hoe and work in the field.

However, although the main battle militia and the reserve militia are both semi-full-time, there are also differences.

The first is that the main battle militia has the opportunity to be on the battlefield in the previous battle, and the militia or activists among the people who have been baptized by artillery fire, and the second is that their equipment and training level are much better than those of the reserve militia......

Of course, in addition to the difference in whether or not they have been on the battlefield and equipment training, the treatment between the main battle militia and the reserve militia is also completely different!

For example, the main battle militia has a military subsidy of one yuan per month, but if there is a family member of the main battle militia, each family of five, the detachment will provide 200 catties of fertilizer free of charge every year, and all kinds of resources will also enjoy various preferential treatments......

On the side of the reserve militia, although the military subsidy is also one dollar, the free supply of fertilizer is only 100 catties, and the arc of various discounts is far less than that of the main battle militia.

Of course, although the treatment of the reserve militia is not as good as that of the main battle militia, it is different from the policy enjoyed by ordinary advanced families in the base areas......

Because of these policies, ordinary people in the base areas want to become advanced families, advanced families want to have a reserve militia at home, families with reserve militia want to have a main battle militia, families with a main battle militia, and they want their own people to directly become detachment soldiers!

So, everyone is desperately performing!

Because it's not just an honor, it's a direct economic benefit!

Therefore, under the two-pronged approach of ideological arming and economic stimulus of the detachment, Zhang Ran has really built every bit of strength he can use into a team that can't help but scream when he sees a devil......

At this moment, those main battle militiamen who are huddled in the bomb crater are like this!

For the sake of honor, for the sake of the family, for the sake of the country and the nation......

All of them actively or passively forgot the fear of death, and just wanted to have a big fight with the little devil, so that the little devil knew that he was powerful......

"Calm down, no one is allowed to act rashly without my orders!"

Looking at the expressions of these team members, Lu Qiang had to reiterate the order, and turned his head to stare at the hundreds of devils who rushed up under the cover of artillery fire, so that everyone could calm down, and strive to bring the devils closer, put them closer, and strive to eliminate the most devils in one wave......

Because he had already received an order from Wang Laogui, at the Tiger Killing Mouth, they could only launch a wave of attacks on the devils, and then no matter what the result was, they had to evacuate immediately!

"Captain Wang is also crazy, how can he give such an order - with such an advantageous terrain as Tiger Killing, we have built so many fortifications, how can we not make good use of it?"

Several machine gunners were observing the enemy situation while making trouble with Lu Qiang.

Lu Qiang glared at a few guys fiercely, and said in his heart that you are making trouble with me, Lao Tzu is making trouble in his stomach, and there is no place to find someone to send it!

But Vice Captain Wang, they just gave such a ghost order, what can Lao Tzu do?

Do you dare not carry out the order?

It has been repeatedly emphasized at the military meeting that an order is an order, and if you don't manage it, you can't understand it, and you must strictly obey it!

Kill......

In the midst of the artillery fire, Yangqiao and several other devil squad leaders led the team to finally rush into the attack range of the Tiger Killer!

Although they were impatient before, these guys didn't rush too much, but ordered the team to disperse and cover on the spot, and at the same time set up machine gun grenadiers and other fire points to suppress the fortifications and other fire points on the Tiger Killing Mouth, and then sent a small force to launch a tentative attack on the Tiger Killing Mouth position!

Under the orders of the devils, dozens of imperial alliance troops took the lead in attacking the tiger killing mouth, and behind them, there were dozens of devils, hanging not far away, while vigilantly covering!

Dozens of Imperial Concordant troops barely encountered any resistance, and it was only after they easily occupied the first line of positions halfway up the mountain of the Tiger Killing Mouth Position that they encountered sporadic resistance!

"Hold on to me—the rest, come up with me and go up to support immediately!"

Seeing this scene, Yangqiao and other squad leaders gave a loud order, and at the same time ordered most of the men and horses to follow him and quickly seize the first trench, striving to use this as a breakthrough to open the passage to take the Tiger Killing Position......

Thinking that the battle into the city went so smoothly, while Yohashi and the others were proud, they looked at Matsui Tunmoto and the others who were cowering behind them, their eyes were full of contempt, and they said that they were the squadron leader - they were just a squad leader......

The commanders of the military department are simply blind!

However, Tunben saw that only a few dozen Imperial Cooperative troops took the first trench of the Tiger Killing Pass without much effort, thinking about the tenacity of the Jindong detachment, he immediately knew that there was fraud in it, and then looked at the way Yangqiao and others commanded several small teams and armies to press, and immediately reminded him!

"Shut up!"

Matsui kicked Tunmoto hard and told him to shut up!

"Matsui-kun, can't you see that there is fraud in this?" Tunmoto Express Road.

"You can see it all, can't I see it?"

Matsui snorted and lowered his voice: "But you should know more, even if you remind Yangqiao and the others that there is fraud?" Not only will they not listen to you, but they will laugh at you, I was broken by the Jindong detachment, and I was suspicious......

Besides, Kudo has given you and me a death order, and within one day, you must capture the tiger and kill the mouth, otherwise you and I will fall to the ground!

If Yohashi and the others are fooled, the strength of our squadron will be greatly damaged, and we will not have the strength to fight again - I don't believe that Kudo will have to force you and me to continue to be the vanguard in this case......"

Matsui Dao, seeing that Tun Ben was about to speak, snorted coldly again: "I know that you can't bear to take down the imperial warriors and send them to death, but you should know that if they don't die, we will have to die - you think clearly!" ”

Tunben stopped talking.

Although he couldn't bear to send those one or two hundred imperial warriors to death in vain, he obviously didn't want to die in comparison!

"That's right, it's better for them to die than for us to die with them!"

Seeing Tunben's appearance, Matsui smiled slightly, patted the other party's shoulder and said: "Besides, these guys in Yangqiao not only look down on you and me, but also be rebellious and difficult to train, even if we are lucky to win the tiger killing mouth this time, with their temperament, we will take them deep into the hinterland of the Jindong base area, I am afraid that sooner or later they will be killed......

In this case, it is better to take this opportunity to let them suffer a little, let them understand that the Jindong detachment is not as easy to deal with as they think, and at the same time let them understand that if they want to survive, they have to obediently listen to our ......"

Matsui said to Tunmoto with a scheming face: "This is a good opportunity to kill three birds with one stone, whether Yangqiao and the others die or not, let them make a big deal here, it will be beneficial to us and harmless, understand?" ”

When Tunmoto heard this, he smiled, looked at Matsui's face full of flattery, and felt that he was really with the right person!
