Chapter 592: Defending Harbin in the Northeast of the Anti-Japanese War (7)

In the chaos, some Japanese soldiers ran back to the station box office and other buildings, while some Japanese troops ran to the train on the platform to resist. &*．． Fastest Update**

Most of the Japanese troops who were far away from the station were killed by a dense rain of bullets fired from three sides before they could run back to the station. A small number of Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough to survive had to lie down on the spot and shoot in the half-foot-thick snow nest. These unobstructed Japanese soldiers were quickly eliminated one by one by the accurate shooting of snipers.

The two field guns had been dragged to the northeast corner of the station by the Japanese troops, and the dozens of Japanese soldiers towing the artillery were the key targets of the team, and the artillery had to be captured in the first round of assault. Otherwise, these two guns will cause a lot of casualties on their own side, and they will also add unknown trouble to the rapid annihilation of this Japanese army.

Under the first round of strikes, dozens of Japanese soldiers dragging two field guns were killed and wounded, and the two field guns were captured by the fighters of the Eastern Resistance who quickly rushed up.

The Japanese troops, who were hiding behind the station and the train, quickly organized fire and fired at the charging officers and soldiers of the Eastern Resistance.

Because of the unfavorable terrain, in order to avoid large casualties, Han Guangdi ordered a detachment to suppress the Japanese army with firepower, and each battalion was divided into squads and platoons, covering each other, and slowly approaching the station with the help of the terrain.

Although this can reduce casualties as much as possible, the time for the total annihilation of the Japanese troops at the station will be longer, and it is even likely that by the time the Japanese troops pursuing the 22nd Brigade rush back, this Japanese army has not been annihilated.

However, because Han Guangdi had enough troops, he didn't care about the convergence of the two Japanese forces.

At this moment, Han Guangdi suddenly found that the two field guns that had just been captured were pushed to the station by more than a dozen soldiers, because there were shields on the field guns, and the soldiers pushing the guns were not afraid of the Japanese army's shooting, although the Japanese army's dense bullets made the shields clang, they still gradually pushed the field guns to a position only more than 100 meters away from the train.

A staff officer who followed Han Guangdi's side was from the former Seventh Brigade, and he recognized that it was a company commander of the artillery battalion of the former Seventh Brigade who organized the artillery pushing, nicknamed Wang Cannon, because the Jiangbei Column was not equipped with mountain artillery, but Wang Cannon was unwilling to leave Wang Tiehan, so he changed his career to become an infantry company commander.

The staff officer scolded angrily: "Wang Cannon, this bastard, is really brainless, when he became an infantry, he forgot to shoot the artillery, but he opened the artillery to bombard the little devil!" ”

Han Guangdi also felt strange, if these two field guns bombarded the train in place, a few guns would blow up the train and set fire to it, driving out the Japanese troops hiding there and destroying them with firepower.

Just as he was puzzled, he saw that Wang Cannon stopped pushing the cannon and began to command the soldiers to lower the muzzle.

Han Guangdi had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and shouted excitedly: "Okay! Great, it's up to them to figure it out. ”

At this time, the staff officer also understood that Wang Cannon wanted to use the field artillery as a battle defense artillery to approach the direct fire train.

"Obediently, this 75mm field artillery is much more powerful than the 37mm battle defense gun. Good! Blow him up little devil. ”

As he spoke, Wang Cannon had already instructed the soldiers to adjust the muzzles of the two field guns to a horizontal position, and through the telescope, Han Guangdi saw that Wang Cannon was personally operating the cannon, aiming directly at the train through the muzzle, and then loading the shells, he saw the red light flashing continuously, and with two roars, the two carriages were blown apart and ignited a fire.

At this time, the carriage, except for the chassis, was made of wood. The wooden carriage could not withstand being fired by two 75mm field guns at close range, even if it was hit by a battle defense gun. Flying shrapnel and sawdust killed and wounded the Japanese soldiers who were hiding behind the car and shooting.

With these two field guns, not to mention blowing up a few carriages, it is also easy to blow up the buildings in the station. Han Kwang-di immediately ordered all mortars and light and heavy machine guns to cover the field artillery fire at once. …,

At this time, the Japanese soldiers also realized the threat to them from these two weapons of mass destruction, and rushed out from behind the carriage a group of Japanese soldiers, holding bayonets, howling and rushing at the two field guns.

These two field cannons are now Han Guangdi's treasures, and they must not be missed. At the sound of an order, more than a dozen machine guns quickly swept down more than half of the Japanese troops who rushed out, and the rest were all killed by the Japanese army, more than 30 meters away from the field artillery, and several submachine guns stretched out behind the field artillery shield were swept wildly and killed one after another.

Under the continuous fire of the field artillery, the three train cars in front and behind the Japanese army were blown up and caught fire one by one, and the Japanese soldiers hiding behind the carriages ran to the platform one after another, trying to hide in the box office.

It's just that in the dense rain of bullets, if you want to run dozens of meters and rush into the box office, it is bound to reach the sky, and the fleeing Japanese soldiers are all killed on the concrete floor in front of the box office without exception.

Immediately afterwards, the two field guns were pushed under the platform, because the platform was almost half a meter high above the railway, and the muzzles of the battle defense guns could just reach the platform, and the personnel could hide under the platform, and the safety was more guaranteed. It is very safe to shoot and the frequency of shooting will also be faster.

The only threat to the two field guns was the grenadier canisters fired from the doorway. No sooner had the first field gun been pushed into place than a grenade exploded on the shield. Fortunately, the grenades fired by the Japanese grenadiers weighed only 0.8 kilograms, which was less powerful, so they did not cause too many casualties to the officers and soldiers hiding behind the shields.

However, due to the violent explosion at a very close distance, several warriors behind the shield were shocked and fainted.

Han Guangdi told the staff officer: "All light and heavy weapons are aimed at the gates of the station, and we are trying our best to prevent the Japanese troops from firing grenades again." ”

Under the cover of field artillery and light and heavy machine guns, the first battalion of the detachment had all moved under the platform, and the second and third battalions had also moved to the flanks and flanks of the station.

Field artillery finally began firing again.

However, due to the height of the platform, the direct shell can only hit the wall of the building on the platform. Moreover, because the buildings of the station are all reinforced concrete and very strong, one shell is not enough to kill and injure the Japanese troops hiding inside, so they can only blow a shallow hole in the wall, and several consecutive guns can blow a big hole in the wall, and in order to kill and injure the Japanese soldiers inside, the shell must be driven through the hole.

Field artilleryUnder normal circumstances, it is almost impossible for two shells to explode at the same explosion point.

However, the situation is different now, and when it comes to striking targets dozens of meters away, the field artillery aimed directly at it is not said that the target is not said, and the next few shells are fired directly through the hole that has been blown up, exploding in the house, and the shrapnel flying all over the house inflicts a large number of casualties on the Japanese troops. If the Japanese still want to hide in the building, the only way to kill them is to die.

Unwilling to sit still, the Japanese soldiers rushed out of the box office, the station master's room, and the warehouse, and more than 200 Japanese soldiers, under the command of the officer, raised their bayonet 38 guns and howled and launched a decisive charge. Although the Japanese troops were constantly knocked down by the dense bullets, they still fearlessly pounced on the battalion under the platform.

The first battalion and three companies are the old companies of the reinforced battalion brought by Wang De, and the Fourth Route Army has never been afraid to fight bayonets, as soon as they saw the Japanese army rushing out, without waiting for the battalion commander to give an order, the company commander stood up and shouted excitedly: "Brothers, kill devils!" After shouting, he jumped on the platform, took the rifle with the bayonet, and pounced on the little devil first.

As soon as the three companies rushed up, the other two companies were not to be outdone, and they also screamed and pounced on the little devils who rushed over, and a tragic white-knuckle battle began on the platform. Four or five hundred Donganti-Japanese fighters besieged less than two hundred devils, and there were also three companies with great experience in fighting and stabbing, and there were four or five people everywhere besieging a Japanese army, and the results can be imagined.

At this moment, fierce gunfire also rang out behind the station, and a group of Japanese soldiers took advantage of the chaos to jump out of the window, covering an officer with a gold star, trying to break through to the north and join up with the Luye brigade. And at this time, the Luye brigade, which had returned in a hurry, also rushed back and exchanged fire with the second and third detachments. …,

There were only fifty or sixty Japanese soldiers who escaped, and they were blocked by the two or three battalions that detoured back to the side of the station, and a burst of machine guns swept away, and all the dozens of Japanese soldiers were killed in the snow.

After dealing with the devils at the station, Han Guangdi immediately commanded a team to pounce on the Luye brigade.

Seeing the thousands of officers and soldiers of the Eastern Resistance rushing in from the direction of the station where there was no gunfire, Shikano knew that the headquarters of the wing under the jurisdiction of the Hase Department had been destroyed. Moreover, the squadrons on both flanks were rapidly making a detour to his flanks.

Lu Ye knew very well that if he didn't withdraw in time, he would not be able to escape the fate of destruction.

In the explosion of fierce and dense mortar shells, Shikano shook off the snow chips on his body and decisively ordered one squadron to break off, while he himself led the rest of the troops to flee north.

Under the intense mortar and side-fire pursuits, the two squadrons of the Luye Brigade suffered heavy casualties. What's even worse is that in front of them, a group of Northeast Army wearing gray uniforms suddenly appeared, desperately blocking them.

It turned out that Zhao Yi also heard the sound of artillery in the direction of the twin castles, and saw the Japanese army withdrawing, Zhao Yi knew that this was his own reinforcements, and it was likely to be Han Guangdi's Jiangbei column. Looking at his subordinates who had suffered heavy casualties, Zhao Yi gritted his teeth and led his troops to the twin castles.

Zhao Yi's idea is very simple, he wants to gather reinforcements to annihilate this Japanese army and avenge the dead brothers, otherwise he will lose face.

There was a blockade in front and a chasing army in the back, Lu Ye knew that the situation was grim, and he must not hesitate at this time, he must quickly break through the blockade of the Northeast Army, otherwise he will be surrounded by the ** squadron that far exceeds his superiority.

Lu Ye raised his command knife with red eyes and loudly ordered the troops to directly charge the Northeast Army position.

The 22nd Brigade retreated all the way, not only the field artillery mortars were lost, but there was not a single heavy machine gun left, only a dozen light machine guns.

Seeing that the large forces of the Eastern Resistance that rushed up from both sides were about to arrive, how could Zhao Yi let go of the Japanese army who had been chasing him for a long time and killed hundreds of his brothers, Zhao Yi shouted: "Brothers, the time for revenge has come, kill me!" ”

After speaking, with red eyes, he led his troops to meet the Japanese troops who rushed over, and the two sides launched a fierce white-knuckle battle
