Chapter 53: Shifting Guards (4)

When he arrived at this village, it was already six or seven o'clock in the morning, and Xiao Linghu sent people to mobilize the people in the village who had not left to leave as soon as possible, and at the same time organized people to dig a trench near the front of the village in case of emergency.

The most important thing, of course, is to blow up the cement bridge over the Panjia River, although the bridge is not wide, but if the devil wants to cross the bridge, he must re-erect it, and it takes some work.

Originally, Xiao Linghu was also going to dig trenches on both sides of the road, which could effectively hit the enemy coming from the highway, but after arriving here, he found that the farmland was not planted with rice, but cotton.

At this time, the cotton was in full bloom, and many of the cotton had already bloomed, and if it were not for the war, the farmers would have been picking cotton in the fields. The cotton grew tall and large, half a man tall, and stretched as far as the eye could see.

Jiangnan was originally the cradle of China's modern industry, and as the most developed industry in the south, in addition to the silk reeling industry, even if it is weaving, so cotton in the rural areas of the south, is the most important cash crop, in terms of crop sowing area alone, farmers in addition to planting a large number of rice, the second place is cotton.

Looking at these cotton that were already about to be harvested, Xiao Linghu couldn't bear to destroy it, and after thinking about it, it was better to let these cotton grow here as it was, but they could use these cotton fields and hide in the cotton fields, which was much easier than digging trenches, and the only thing they were worried about was that the devils would set fire to the fields.

When they were nervously preparing, the sound of artillery fire had already sounded in the north, first there was a burst of the sound of the devil's mountain artillery, and then they saw the devil's plane flying from the north, just as those bombs exploded, and soon after, in the direction of Lujia Village, north of Panjia Village, there was a fierce exchange of fire.

Xiao Linghu knew that in that direction, it was the deployment area of the 66th Regiment, which already showed that the devils really had to start attacking.

Hu Congjun personally came to Panjia Village to check the situation, and he was satisfied with Xiao Linghu's arrangement, but the sound of the firefight in the north became more and more intense, and he could hardly hear a second of pause, he and Xiao Linghu couldn't help but come to the Panjia River, found a slightly higher position, and held a telescope to observe there.

A cannonball whistling down from a distance exploded in the cotton field across the river, sending dirt flying, but Hu Congjun didn't seem to realize it, still holding the telescope and watching.

After a long time, he put away the binoculars, turned around and asked Xiao Linghu: "The devil has a chariot, do you know how to fight?" ”

Xiao Linghu was stunned for a moment, took the telescope from Hu Congjun's hand, and looked forward along the road, this position could only see three or four kilometers away, and it was blocked by trees and houses on the side of the road.

At this time, entering the telescope, there was indeed a Japanese-style tank, this tank was a Japanese-made Type 95 light tank, with a diesel engine, tracked driving, equipped with a 37 mm tank gun and two imitation Czech-made Type 97 7.7 mm heavy machine guns, these two heavy machine guns, one in front and one in the rear. In comparison, Japanese-made tanks and European, American and Soviet tanks can not wait for the Japanese, Japanese-made tanks generally have a riveted structure, the armor is between six and twelve millimeters, and the thickest place is twelve millimeters, but for an army that lacks anti-tank weapons like **, this is already an iron wall.

At this time, they stopped on the side of the road and carried out an artillery attack on a fortification of the 66th Regiment, which was more than 200 meters away, and it bombarded it with two shells, and the fortification was already in ruins, and I don't know how many brothers were buried in it.

Although there are constantly ** warriors, approaching to throw bombs and Molotov cocktails, but because of the protection of the devil's infantry, those warriors did not reach the devil's tank at all, they became their target, Xiao Linghu saw two ** soldiers sacrifice dozens of meters in front of the tank, and before the last soldier died, he threw the Molotov cocktail in his hand into the crowd of devils, hoping to explode, but did not hurt a devil.

Xiao Linghu handed the telescope back to Hu Congjun, and his face was already gloomy.

"This thing is not easy to fight!" Hu Congjun sighed: "We lack weapons that can move it, don't you see?" The little devils seem to treat their chariot as if it were a treasure, their chariot never stands out alone, but follows their infantry, even when they have to work, they stop there and use it as a self-propelled gun! If we have long-range firepower, we can take it out with just one shot. However, we didn't, and it was impossible for us to break through the protection of those devil infantry, so we could only be beaten by it! ”

Xiao Linghu nodded, but he was thinking in his heart about how to deal with the devil's infantry and chariot coordination?

According to his knowledge from the textbooks of military schools, he also talked about the case of dealing with combat vehicles, and one of the most important methods is to find a way to disconnect the opponent's combat vehicles from the infantry and divide and annihilate them.

However, when he thought of this method, Xiao Linghu could only let out a wry smile, **In front of the Japanese infantry, he couldn't beat it, and he wanted to cut off their infantry from the middle, how could this be? If ** is really so powerful, it is impossible for these devil soldiers to come all the way from the sea.

However, Xiao Linghu thought of a way.

"Maybe we can try to bury some mines on the road!" Xiao Linghu thought of something and said to Hu Congjun.

Hu Congjun was stunned for a moment, but said: "The mine is good, but it can't be so coincidental, just enough to blow up the devil's chariot; Besides, their chariot also has armor on the bottom, how can it be blown up with a single thunderbolt? ”

This is indeed a problem.

"With a towing mine!" Xiao Linghu said: "We will destroy the road, press the line under the soil, and just wait for the devil's chariot to roll over and then pull the line, so that it should be able to blow up their chariot." If one mine can't be broken, then two, three, I don't believe it, that hell thing is really impregnable! ”

"You can try!" Hu Congjun said: "It just so happens that there is a box of German mines in our regiment, and you can find someone to go to me to bring it out in a while, and give it all to you, even if it can't blow up the devil's chariot, it's good to blow up a few more devil soldiers!" ”

Hearing Hu Congjun say this, Xiao Linghu couldn't help but be overjoyed.
