Chapter 475: Storming the Airport (Part II)

"Boom...", under the cover of dense shell explosions, the roar of engines immediately sounded on the sortie position where the armored brigade was located ... One by one, under the cover of the sound of artillery, the chariots slowly drove out of their positions and drove towards the airfield that had been completely covered by artillery fire at this moment.

At the same time, the two main regiments and more than 4,000 commanders and fighters were closely following behind these tanks, slowly approaching the airport, preparing to give the little devils who had not yet reacted from the shelling on the airport as soon as the artillery fire stopped, to make a surprise attack, and completely wipe out the Japanese army in the airport... Finally, when the entire armored brigade and 18 tanks had advanced to a distance of less than 500 meters from the forward positions of the Japanese army, the 10-minute artillery bombardment finally stopped. However, the raging fire in the entire airport was not extinguished by the cessation of the shelling, but burned more and more ... However, those little devils who survived the heavy shelling just now, under the command of commanders at all levels, have quickly entered the fortifications that can continue to be used..."Ah... Baga, it's a chariot, could it be that our reinforcements are coming... No, Beiping City is in that direction, and the chariot is not the chariot of the Imperial Army, but the chariot of the enemy..."In the airport, under the reflection of the raging fire, the devil soldiers who had just entered the position immediately found a dozen chariots in front of them that were rapidly advancing towards them. Then, at the commanders at all levels around him, he let out a frightened cry..."Nani... The enemy's chariot troops, Baga, what about our artillery, the artillery will open fire immediately, and all the chariots of the Eighth Route Army must be destroyed, and the pace of the Eighth Route Army's attack must be blocked, and fire immediately..." And behind these chariots, there were groups of troops of the Eighth Route Army, with weapons in their hands, following closely behind. While shocked, the captain hurriedly gave an order to shell to a squadron leader beside him... However, half a minute passed, and at a distance of nearly 100 meters when the 18 combat vehicles advanced again, there was still no movement in the artillery position behind them. couldn't help but scolded loudly at the adjutant beside him: "Bage Yalu, why don't the artillery carry out shelling." If you don't open fire again, all of them will die, and the artillery will open fire immediately..."

"Hi, Your Excellency, Captain. Just now, the correspondent came to report that the artillery position, in the shelling just now, had been completely destroyed. Therefore, in the next battle, we will not have any artillery support, and we can only rely on our own strength to block the attack of the Eighth Route Army..."Facing the captain with an angry face, the deputy captain reminded in a low voice.

"Baga, the Eighth Route Army is really very cunning. All light and heavy machine guns were ordered to open fire at once to block the attack of the Eighth Route Army. The troops immediately formed a death squad, and in any case, they could not allow the chariot units of the Eighth Route Army to storm our airfield. Otherwise, we're all going to die..."After a burst of angry scolding, the group leader loudly issued a new combat order to several squadron leaders around him..."Dadada..."In an instant, dozens of light and heavy machine guns that were hastily assembled immediately pointed at the 18 combat vehicles that were getting closer and closer, highlighting the dense rain of bullets, but the flying bullets did not make any progress except for the continuous splashing of sparks on the armor of the tank. The 18 tanks, relying on their rough skin and thick flesh, under the fierce blow of the light and heavy firepower of the Japanese army, did not have any scruples and stays, and still rushed towards the position of the Japanese army with a group of soldiers... At the same time, under the command of the gunners, one tank gun after another constantly carried out precise strikes at the light and heavy firepower points exposed by the Japanese army. In this way, in just one minute, at least ten light and heavy machine guns were shelled and beaten into the most primitive parts. At the same time, nearly 100 soldiers were killed in the explosion of shells.

Looking at the constant sound of shell explosions on the defensive positions, and looking at the dozen or so tanks that were spitting tongues of fire and getting closer and closer to their positions. The captain's heart, so to speak, has been raised to his throat. At this moment, a squadron leader who had already taken off his shirt came to the captain's side with a resolute face.

"Report to Your Excellency, Captain. All 60 daredevils have been assembled, please give us a combat order from Your Excellency, and we will definitely live up to your high expectations..."Sure enough, behind the squadron leader, there are sixty daredevils standing neatly, with grenades hanging from their waists, and ** their own upper bodies..."Yo Xi, very good. Now I order all the daredevils to attack immediately, and all the chariots of the Eighth Route Army must be destroyed... Long live the Empire, long live His Majesty the Emperor, kill it..."Seeing the sixty death squad members in front of him, the captain who was still nervous just now, his nervous mood slowly relaxed. Then, he drew his command knife and commanded loudly at the sixty soldiers who were about to die, "Long live the Empire, long live His Majesty the Emperor, kill it..." Immediately, sixty people scattered along the communication trenches in the defensive positions into different offensive positions... With the issuance of an order, dozens of daredevils immediately jumped up from the trenches, relying on their skilled tactical movements, while dodging the flying bullets, while quickly rushing to the tank more than a hundred meters away, which was rapidly advancing forward..."Not good, it's the little devil's death squad... All the chariots, stop moving forward immediately, and be sure to destroy all the daredevils of the little devils... All light and heavy machine guns and infantry are responsible for providing fire cover..."Looking at the dozens of devil soldiers who jumped up from the position of the army, with grenades tied to their waists. Brigade commander Yang Jinghua immediately understood the purpose of the army. Then, facing the car radio station and the flag soldiers beside him, he gave a new order with a serious face.

"Da Da Da Da..." With the order of the brigade commander Yang Jinghua, it reached the ears of every commander at the first time. The tank, which was still spitting black smoke and constantly moving forward, immediately stopped in place. 18 tanks and 36 vehicle-mounted machine guns, at the same time, aimed a dense tongue of fire at these little devil daredevils who were quickly coming back to themselves..."Boom, boom......ahhh Suddenly, huge fireballs and a large amount of gunpowder smoke rose in front of the tank. Although, with the shooting just now, at least half of the little devil daredevils fell on the way to the charge. However, the smoke that filled the front of the position, at the same time, blocked the eyes of the machine gunners in the tank. Let these machine gunners, temporarily lose the target of shooting.

For a time, the 36 vehicle-mounted machine guns could only blindly strafe the position in front of them that were filled with gunsmoke, and they could not find a specific target at all. At the same time, after just shooting, the remaining twenty or so devil soldiers also jumped up from the ground, and with the help of the thick gunpowder smoke around them, they quickly jumped up from the ground and continued to charge....

In this way, as the smoke slowly dispersed, the figure of the little devil charging appeared in the eyes of the soldiers again. More than a dozen devil soldiers with grenades strapped to their bodies had already rushed to a distance of only a dozen meters away from the tank. It only takes a few seconds for these devil soldiers to rush to the dead end of the tank..."Quick, shoot immediately, you must destroy all the devil soldiers, and you can't let them get close to the tank..."Looking at the little devils who were close at hand, the commanders of the tanks, beads of sweat the size of beans had begun to appear on their foreheads, and they commanded loudly at the machine gunners beside them. In an instant, a flurry of bullets erupted from the muzzles of 36 vehicle-mounted machine guns, and the rain of bullets, like rain, accurately hit the hiding places of more than a dozen devil soldiers... Several devil soldiers, in this dense rain of bullets, quickly turned into soft corpses. The rest of the soldiers are still quietly hiding there, motionless, quietly waiting for the arrival of the tank, and then, on the tank passing by them, launch the most fatal blow....

However, it is often the case that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Just when these devil soldiers were waiting for the arrival of the tank, the soldiers hidden behind the tank began to act. The grenades that were emitting green smoke quickly passed over the tanks in front of them, and then smashed accurately into the hiding place of the Daredevils... So, the raindrops of grenades, like rain, fell on the side of these devil soldiers. A dense explosion sounded, and those surviving little devils, without exception, all turned into soft corpses in this dense explosion. Even those unlucky devil soldiers have been directly blown to pieces by the dense rain of grenades.

"All the armored brigades are there, continue to attack....tank guns, eliminate all the fire points of the little devils, machine gunners, responsible for fire suppression, and start to charge..." Brigade Commander Yang Jinghua loudly issued a new order to the on-board radio in front of him..."Rumble..."Immediately, for the sake of the army daredevils, more than a dozen combat vehicles that had stayed for about two minutes once again let out bursts of roars. With thousands of infantry behind him, he drove towards Baimi, and rushed towards the position of the army.

What's more, these dozen or so combat vehicles, while slowly moving forward, quickly fired shells one after another at various firing points on the positions of the army... At the same time, the dense rain of bullets fired from 36 machine guns also weighed down the remaining devil soldiers on the position so that they couldn't lift their heads..."Baga, the chariot of the Eighth Route Army, is very powerful. The order was given to the troops to retreat immediately, and we retreated to the second line of defense and continued to hold on. Hurry up, the troops will immediately retreat...."Looking at the position, one by one the imperial soldiers, under the continuous blows of the tank guns and vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns of the Eighth Route Army, the casualty data rose in a straight line... In a few minutes at most, the tanks of the Eighth Route Army may occupy their positions. And when the time comes, the hundreds of imperial soldiers who stick to this defensive position can only be wiped out. Thinking of this, in order to hold on for a longer time and wait for reinforcements in Beiping City, the captain wisely gave the troops an order to retreat.

Suddenly, on the entire defensive position, the remaining more than 300 devil soldiers, under the command of the captain, quickly joined the retreating ranks. However, their retreating figure did not escape the eyes of the warriors. Under the command of the brigade commander Yang Jinghua, one tank gun after another immediately turned the muzzle of the gun, and all the muzzles of the black hole were aimed at the middle of the retreating little devil formation.

"Boom, boom, boom...", a roar sounded, 18 tank guns, at the same time, followed by clusters of orange-red flames, gushing out from the muzzle of the guns. 18 shells landed accurately in the retreating formation of the little devils. A series of dense explosions sounded, and the entire retreating formation of the little devils was immediately blown into chaos, and at least a small team of devil soldiers fell in the explosion just now... In the end, under the combined attack of heavy machine guns and tank guns, more than 300 little devils, only more than 100 left, successfully retreated into their second defensive position. Occupying the first defensive position of the Japanese army, the armored brigade did not make any stops, quickly crossed the position that had become a ruin, and launched a new round of attack on the second defensive position.

And just when the armored brigade, with the cooperation of the two main regiments, launched an attack on the airfield. In the direction of Peiping, nearly 1,000 mixed troops led by the supreme commander of the airfield, looking at the airfield, which had completely fallen into a sea of fire and had completely lost its role, resolutely decided to abandon the airfield, preserve its vital forces, and strengthen the city's defense forces in Beiping.

As a result, nearly 1,000 remnants of devils, under the command of Commander Dazuo, quickly withdrew from the airport and prepared to retreat. However, at this moment, the way for them to retreat has been completely cut off by 2,000 soldiers of the 2nd Brigade and 4th Regiment... Two thousand warriors, lying on their defensive positions, are gearing up, waiting for the arrival of the little devil ....

"Regiment commander, the remnants of a brigade of little devils are fleeing in a hurry towards our position..." The scouts sent by the Fourth Regiment reported every move of the army to Xu Ying, the commander of the Fourth Regiment, at the first time.

"Hehe, I finally waited for the little devil. Tell the fighters of the 2nd Battalion to get ready for battle. In addition, inform the anti-aircraft machine gun company in the pillbox that it is forbidden to open fire without my order. These 18 anti-aircraft machine guns are the last killer weapon of our four regiments, and they must not be used until the critical moment..."The regiment commander Xu Bin ordered solemnly, and then raised his binoculars and looked at the road in the direction of the airport.

Sure enough, nearly a thousand devil soldiers, under the cover of three armored vehicles, quickly rushed towards their location. However, when he saw the armored car walking in front of the little devil and making a roaring sound, the second battalion commander standing next to the regiment commander Xu Bin was immediately startled. Then, Xu Ying, who was beside him, hurriedly suggested: "Regiment commander, the little devil even brought an armored combat vehicle, and we don't have any heavy weapons except mortars." You see, do you ask the heavy artillery regiment for artillery support, and first kill the three armored vehicles of the little devil. ”

"Hehe, Lao Wang, now that the heavy artillery regiment is retreating, we must not ask the heavy artillery regiment for help. However, you can relax, the armored car of the little devil will definitely not run. You, inform the anti-aircraft machine gun company in the pillbox, and ask them to send three machine guns out to fight the armored vehicles of the little devils....although the heavy machine guns in our hands cannot beat the enemy's armored vehicles. However, the anti-aircraft machine gun in the pillbox is definitely a sharp weapon for armored vehicles, and when the time comes, you will see! Xu Ying replied with a smile... At this moment, the Yue Army, which was evacuating in a hurry, also found the troops of the Eighth Route Army blocking in front of them. Under the illumination of the searchlights of the three armored vehicles, a blocking position in front of him appeared in his eyes: "Baga, the cunning Eighth Route Army, when did they occupy the highway, why didn't we get any news." ”

"Hi, Your Excellency. No matter when the road was occupied by the Eighth Route Army. Now the gunfire behind us has become more and more intense. If you can't break through the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army in front of you in the shortest possible time, you will return to Beiping City. The main force of the Eighth Route Army will definitely annihilate us here. Please make a decision earlier, Your Excellency. Listening to the dense gunfire behind him, a captain beside him hurriedly reminded him.

"Yo Xi, order the first squadron, under the cover of three armored vehicles, to break through the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army within five minutes..." Commander Dazuo's face immediately showed a trace of murderous aura, and he ordered with a serious face to the captain beside him... Immediately, a squadron of little devils, under the cover of three armored combat vehicles, launched a decisive charge to the defensive positions held by the second battalion ... In the roar of the armored vehicles of the third company, more than two hundred little devils, holding the weapons in their hands, quickly approached the position of the Eighth Route Army....

"Commander, let's fight. The little devil is only one hundred and fifty meters away from the position, and if he doesn't fight, it will be too late...."Seeing the devil soldiers getting closer and closer to the position, and seeing the shooting holes of the three armored combat vehicles one by one one hundred and fifty meters away, the second battalion commander whispered...
