Chapter 50: The Attack on the Iron Mines (2)
Anshan has many iron mines, which is a well-known thing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As a strategic resource, Lao Maozi certainly won't let it develop.
Therefore, Lao Maozi just gained control of Anshan, and through various means, he took several of the largest iron mines in Anshan as his own.
Subsequently, the excavated iron ore was continuously sent back to the country to produce steel and weapons.
It can be said that these large iron mines in Anshan are, in the eyes of Lao Maozi's northeast garrison, a cornucopia of continuous wealth.
In order to hold these cornucopias, Lao Maozi not only stationed a reinforced battalion in Anshan County, but also stationed hundreds to hundreds of troops in several iron mines. What's more, some large-scale iron mines also equipped the garrison with heavy machine guns for defense.
And the iron ore that Yang Xingguo wants to hit, because of the limitations of the road, although the iron ore reserves are very large, there are not many outlets. So there was only one company in the Lao Maozi garrison.
As the night slowly enveloped the land of Northeast China, the absenteeism that had been busy all day began to leave the mine one after another with a tired face, and in the shouting and scolding of the overseers.
As the last miner left, the two huge wooden doors at the entrance of the iron mine were directly closed.
At this time, some people may ask, can the miners here still come and go freely, and don't they live in the mines......
You know, in modern history, except for when the Japanese occupied Northeast China, they created one tragedy after another and forced the Chinese to give them free labor. Other foreigners, although they also oppress the Chinese, are not as rampant and inhumane as the Japanese.
Working as miners in the Lao Maozi Iron Mine, everyone did the hardest things with a small amount of silver.
However, Lao Maozi at least regarded the miners as human beings and did not restrict everyone's freedom. As long as everyone is willing, they can leave the iron mine at any time, and they can be squeezed completely as you and I want.
Therefore, in order to obtain the maximum benefit at the minimum cost, Lao Maozi, as a mine owner, will certainly not spend extra silver to prepare houses and food for the miners in the mine.
So, there is such a scene here......
In addition to the negligible revenge every day, as long as the miners complete the day's workload, they will be driven out of the mine by the old Maozi overseer of the mine.
Of course, this also has a purpose, which is to prevent miners from living in the mines and causing trouble.
Driving the miners out of the mine is beneficial and harmless to the old man of the mine.
Similarly, for Yang Xingguo, who is preparing to attack the mine, there are also great benefits.
Among them, the most direct benefit is that when everyone attacks the mine, there is no need to worry about bullets without eyes and accidentally injuring miners......
As the surrounding night became thicker and thicker, several company platoon commanders seemed to have discussed, and at the same time they distanced to Yang Xingguo's side, wanting to find out from the mouth of Yang Xingguo, the commander, how to take the iron mine heavily defended by Lao Maozi tonight.
Looking at everyone's nervous and expectant eyes, Yang Xingguo didn't let everyone wait too long, and directly opened his mouth to order......
"Cavalry platoon, you haven't finished training yet, so you won't participate in the battle...... However, you still have a mission, to use the combat team as a unit, to eliminate all the old hairy people who may break through......"
"Three combat companies, we should all see when we come, there is an empty mountain recess that stretches for three or four hundred meters two miles behind us, and your three companies, commanded by Deputy Commander Wang, are ambushed on both sides of the recess, waiting for me to lure Lao Maozi over......"
"The heavy machine gun platoon, the guard platoon, followed Deputy Commander Wang to act...... However, without my order, two platoons must not take part in the battle......"
"The rest of the reconnaissance platoon, the sniper platoon, is personally commanded by me, attacking the mine and luring out the old Mao Zi who guards the mine......"
Two hours, in just two hours, Yang Xingguo received the news that Wang Hu had been lurking in place.
At this moment, Yang Xingguo and his two platoons had already lurked in a bush less than one hundred and fifty meters away from the mine.
Looking at the gate of the mine, which was illuminated by several torches more than 100 meters away, Yang Xingguo picked up his rifle and aimed at one of the sentries at the gate, and at the same time, he commanded the other sharpshooter next to him as low as possible.
"See the two old hairy men at the door...... I'll hit the left, you hit the right, and I'll get killed with one shot...... Other soldiers, prepare for battle...... After the battle begins, anyone who dares to stick his head out of the mine will be killed directly......"
"I'm going to let the old Maozi know, unless they want to stay in the mine as a shrunken turtle...... Otherwise, he will have to rush out of the mine to fight a decisive battle with us and destroy our ......"
"After Lao Maozi rushed out of the mine, what we need to do is to retreat while fighting, and bring Lao Maozi's attack troops to the ambush circle prepared for them by Deputy Commander Wang......"
The orders were passed one by one, quickly behind everyone's ears. Yang Xingguo didn't hesitate any longer, and directly pulled the trigger of the rifle in his hand.
The gunshot rang out, and the old Maozi, who was targeted by Yang Xingguo, fell down.
At the same time, the sniper platoon brothers lying next to Yang Xingguo also pulled the trigger, and two other old Maozi sentries fell to the ground......
Although at this moment, Yang Xingguo is a hundred meters away from the cottage. However, after the gunshots rang out, Yang Xingguo could hear very clearly that it was a quiet cottage just now, and in just the blink of an eye, it became chaotic and noisy, and there were old Maozi's shouts and scolding everywhere.
Of course, at the gate of the mine, where two old Maozi sentinels had just been shot, seven or eight Lao Maozi also poured out at the first time
Maybe it was because he saw the corpses of two comrades-in-arms who fell at the gate of the mine, and these old Maozi who had just appeared were particularly cautious.
Only a small part of his body peeked out of the gate, and he looked cautiously at the dark woods around the mine.
In Lao Maozi's opinion, they are so cautious that they will definitely not be attacked.
However, Yang Xingguo, who trained the sniper platoon sharpshooter with a large number of bullets, is not a vegetarian.
Before Yang Xingguo could give the order, a string of dense gunshots rang out around him. The old man, who was still cautious just now, fell to the ground and turned into a corpse with a face full of incredulity......
Soon, an exclamation of "sharpshooters, the enemy has sharpshooters" sounded on the mine 100 meters away.
As the real master of the Northeast now, every old Maozi is very arrogant.
How could an arrogant person allow an attack on the Chinese bandits, whom he had always looked down on, to be pressed and beaten......
Therefore, the company commander of Captain Maozi, who reacted from the short shock and panic, gave the order for the whole army to attack and eliminate the bandits without thinking about it......
As for the news that there are sharpshooters among the bandits, in the opinion of the company commander, even if there are sharpshooters, there will not be many people......
And with the strength of a company, he can completely destroy them with the advantage of strength......
