Chapter 292: Layers of Sniping

The First Brigade of the North China Front Tank of Little Japan, hundreds of tanks, thousands of little devils, huge in scale, and fierce and rapid advance, the little devils never thought that a huge anti-tank mine array was waiting for them in front.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The sound of continuous explosions soon came out, and the chariots of the little devils were advancing at full speed, and many chariots rushed into this minefield, and suddenly, at least dozens of mines were triggered, and the small Japanese tanks and armored vehicles that were destroyed at the first time exceeded double digits.

A Type 92 Douding tank driving in the front rushed into a small minefield, and with a violent explosion, the small Douding tank was suddenly blown up, and the entire bottom of the tank was blown to pieces, and all the little devils in the tank were killed.

Behind the tanks, on the left and right sides, there were several tanks, which also rushed headlong into the small minefield. After several explosions, the tanks were also destroyed.

At the forefront was a small squadron of Japanese tanks, a total of 11 Douding tanks, the small Douding tanks, completely vulnerable to these anti-tank mines, as soon as they were hit by the mines, they were immediately destroyed.

After a burst of explosions, the bombed tanks smoked and became a pile of scrap metal. When the small Japanese tank group marched, the width reached hundreds of meters, the scale was huge, and it was not only these tanks that hit the mine at the first time.

Not far away, several armored vehicles were also blown up, and the thinner-armored ones, under the explosion of anti-tank mines, were almost blown away.

There was a loud "boom". An armored vehicle was blown to pieces, and the broken parts flew out of the distance, leaving a large crater in the ground. Smoke was emitting.

The fighters planted two to three thousand American M19 anti-tank mines within a radius of two or three kilometers. This kind of mine is a product of the future era, however, the things of the mine series are relatively cheap, even the M19 anti-tank mine, which only came out in the fifties, Ye Feng can afford it.

After spending tens of thousands of merit points, Ye Feng exchanged enough M19 anti-tank mines from the "Nuwa" system to deploy three or four large minefields on the road to Xuzhou that the First Brigade of Small Japanese Tanks must pass.

The M19 anti-tank mine is a non-metallic anti-tank tracked mine. It can blow up heavy tank tracks, and the U.S. military has been equipping troops for use since 1954. There is a secondary fuze chamber on the thunder side and a sub-fuse chamber on the thunder side for setting up the trick device. The M606 fuse of this mine configuration is also plastic, waterproof and can be installed on the river bottom.

Due to the large number of metal parts of the M6/M15 anti-tank mines, they are easy to be detected by minesweepers. Therefore, the US military was equipped with M19 anti-tank mines in 1954. There are no metal parts except for the copper detonator shell and the stainless steel firing pin spring. The mine should be square in shape, 330 mm in length and width, 76 mm in height, containing 9.5 kg of "B" type explosives, with a total mass of 12.6 kg, and an initiation pressure of 1600-2300N.

Facing the menacing small Japanese tank brigade. Ye Feng also spent a lot of money, spending tens of thousands of merit points. Exchanged for a large number of M19 anti-tank mines. Ye Fengzhi said that with Japan's current demining skills, it is very difficult to eliminate these mines.

The explosions were very dense, and the small Japanese tanks that were urgently marching gradually stopped, and in front of the entire team, some tanks and armored vehicles driving in the front had been blown up, all of which had turned into piles of scrap metal or piles of wreckage, and some of the bombed tanks were still smoking in place, and even burned.

Hearing the explosion, the commander of the Little Japanese Tank Brigade, Akira Hirata, also stepped out of his armored car, looking at the smoke in front of him, the destroyed tanks and armored vehicles, Akira Hirata's face was a little ugly, and he roared loudly.

"Yaga! What's going on? ”

A young Japanese boy hurriedly ran over from the front and replied loudly: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, mines have been planted in front, and more than 20 of our combat vehicles have been blown up. ”

"Your Excellency Brigade Commander, there are frequent activities on the Tuba Road in this area, and it may be that the mines planted on the Tuba Road are relatively frequent." A small Japanese officer analyzed next to him.

"Yaga, this damn dirt eight roads." Hirata Akira was so angry that he was going to die, and then, angrily, shouted: "Immediately order the sappers to clear the mines, hurry up, hurry up." ”

With Akira Hirata's order, soon, a group of small Japanese sappers, with mine detectors, trotted all the way to the front and began to carefully clear the mines.

There are at least fifty or sixty kilometers away from Xuzhou, and the little devils don't think that Ye Feng sent people to lay mines in this area, but immediately thought of the Eighth Route Army, which is often active in this area.

Little Japan completely overestimated the mines of the Eighth Route Army, and the kind of land mines of the Eighth Route Army were generally difficult to blow up the tanks and armored vehicles of Little Japan, even the iron-shelled mines of the Eighth Route Army.

In North China, the Eighth Route Army practiced mine warfare and once blew up small Japanese tanks, but even if it blew up a few small Japanese combat vehicles, it was mostly luck, and the anti-tank mines that could destroy small Japanese tanks in an instant were not produced by the technologically backward Eighth Route Army Arsenal.

Because there may be mines ahead, the chariot group of the little devils has all stopped, and some little devils have taken the opportunity to get off their chariots, stand next to the chariots, or climb on the roof to rest, and some of the little devils in the front are even watching the little devils sappers in front of them to clear mines.

There are quite a few of these sappers of the little devils, in groups of three or five, who are carefully clearing mines. Minute by minute.

These devil sappers looked puzzled, they took the metal detector and lined up for more than ten minutes, but they didn't find a single mine, not only did they not find a single mine, so many people were clearing mines, and no one stepped on the mine.

It's so weird!

Seeing that more than ten minutes had passed, nothing had been found, and the face of the commander of the Devil Brigade Akira Hirata became darker and darker, and he was ready to start angry.

A little devil officer ran over and reported: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, we haven't found a single mine, maybe all those mines were crushed by us just now. ”

So many people are clearing mines, not a single mine has been found, there may really be no mines, Hirata Akira looked at the time, it was not early, so he carried a command knife, climbed into his armored car, and gave the order to continue advancing.

The chariot group of the little devils began to advance again, but just a little way forward, several tanks and armored vehicles hit mines one after another.

Several explosions came from the front in a row, and Hirata's face was so gloomy that he could almost pinch out the water, and there was no need for the little devil to report, Hirata's Akira knew that another chariot had been blown up.

"Yaga !!"

Hirata Akira was so angry that he had no choice but to give another order, ordering the temporary halt of the advance, sending almost all the sappers out, and starting demining again.

So many devil sappers lined up for another twenty or thirty minutes, but they still found nothing. Seeing that there was still nothing to be found, Hirata Akira thought that the front might be planted with non-metallic anti-tank mines, and such advanced mines were definitely not planted by the Eighth Route Army, but were most likely planted by the troops of the newly formed 6th Army.

Thinking about this, Hirata Akitochi said that the only way at present was to bypass this minefield, so the chariot group of the little devils began to move again, changed direction, and went around from the side of the area that exploded just now.

Hirata Akira never imagined that this vast area was full of mines, and the flanks were also there, and the entire minefield stretched for one or two kilometers and consisted of dozens of small minefields.

The chariot group of the little devils had only made a detour of less than one or two hundred meters, and several tanks and armored vehicles were struck by mines, and several explosions were heard, and all these tanks and armored vehicles were blown up.

Hirata Akira was so angry that he vomited blood, and he was in the mood to kill.

How can there be so many mines in this area, and they are advanced non-metallic anti-tank mines. In desperation, Hirata Zhang had no choice but to spread out the map, re-select a route of travel, retreat a few kilometers, and bypass far from the side, so that the little devil would have to walk at least a dozen kilometers more.

Take a look at the sky, too far away and gradually slanting westward, and it will be dark in more than an hour, Hirata Zhang took a look at his watch, and knew that he would arrive in Xuzhou at seven o'clock this evening.

The chariot group of the little devils traveled a few kilometers more, but unexpectedly, they encountered a huge minefield, and more than a dozen chariots were blown up, turning into piles of wreckage and piles of scrap metal.

This area was full of minefields, and it was difficult for the tanks of Little Japan to pass through.

……

South of Zaozhuang.

A long contingent of little devils was marching, urgently marching along the road, kicking up dust in the sky, which was the small Japanese independent mixed 5th Brigade that was rapidly reinforcing Xuzhou.

Suddenly, several explosions sounded in succession.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

This was the explosion of an earthen mine, and a unit of the Eighth Route Army had planted a mine in this area, and with a few explosions, dozens of little devils marching at the front of the line were either killed or wounded.

On the hills on both sides of the road, there was an ambush of several hundred members of the Eighth Route Army, and this group of Eighth Route Army watched the explosion of the mines they had planted, and their faces were full of joy.

"Battalion commander, our mine exploded."

The battalion commander of the Eighth Route Army held a telescope and watched the little devil in the distance being blown up, and his face was also happy, and he whispered to the side: "Don't move, everyone, lie in ambush, you are not allowed to shoot without my order." ”

"Battalion commander, look, the little devils have begun to clear mines."

Let's line up, don't rush. The battalion commander put down the binoculars, looked calm, and even took out a little tobacco, slowly rolled up a cigarette, and smoked it with enjoyment.

Today's three watches, the first one is sent. (To be continued......)
