[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 367: Flying Thunder (Ask for subscriptions, ask for monthly passes, ask for everything!) )

Looking in the direction of He Xiulin's finger, and then the fire ignited by the explosion of grenades and shells, Chen Xudong and the others suddenly saw an amazing scene.

After paying a great price, the troops of the 2nd Battalion finally moved to a distance of less than 100 meters from the Japanese position, and also built a simple defensive line under the dry riverbed. One company and two companies were under the riverbed, braving enemy artillery fire, constantly firing to cover the artillery units behind. The artillery platoon, guard platoon, and other troops quickly installed the three dozen launchers and took out more than a dozen explosive packs according to Tu Hu's order.

At this time, many people in the second battalion had already seen the plan to slaughter the tiger, and those who understood it became excited. Grandma's, if you are hit on the head by an explosive bag at such a close distance, the casualties can be described as heavy. You must know that almost all infantry guns are still very limited in lethality as long as they are not hit by shrapnel. Unless it's one of those heavy howitzers, even if they don't hit the head, they can be injured by impact alone.

The explosive pack is similar to heavy artillery to a certain extent, although it is naturally not comparable to heavy artillery in terms of range, but as long as the explosive pack explodes nearby, the effect is the same, and it is definitely a disaster. In addition to the violent explosion, the most frightening thing about the explosives pack is the impact of a huge shock wave.

However, Chen Xudong and the others who were watching the battle behind the battlefield had not yet understood, after all, it was night, not daytime, and the visibility was very poor, and they could only see the situation on the battlefield by the light of the fire. In addition, the effect of the Japanese-made telescope is average, and it is not clear what the Tuhu Department is doing. But Chen Xudong and others also saw that the second battalion was not doing it brutally, it should have a purpose.

At this time, He Xiulin spoke: "Political commissar, brigade commander, don't be too angry, the main attack in front is the first regiment and the second battalion, and the battalion commander is called Tu Hu." Tactical command is still very good. The most important thing is that this guy is a card winner who does not follow common sense, which is a bit similar to Brigade Commander Wu of the Duqi Brigade, I believe that he has a profound intention to do this at this time. ”

He Xiulin has not joined the Suicha Military Region for a long time, but he is a political worker with a high ideological consciousness and strong work ability, and he has read all the officer materials of the brigade after taking office for a short time. And an officer with a flawed background like Tu Hu is the object of his attention, so he still has a deep understanding of Tu Hu, a big bandit leader.

"Well, let's wait and see!" Chen Xudong said in a deep voice.

By this time, at the bottom of the dry riverbed, the artillerymen of the 2nd Battalion had already installed all the launchers. The artillery platoon commander also knew that the battle situation was urgent, so he said loudly: "Squad leader, test fire immediately, hurry up"

"Yes"

I saw a squad leader put a large explosive bag on the tray of the launcher, and vigorously moved down the disc handle of the spring.

"Ignition"

"Launch"

After a small soldier finished lighting the fire, the squad leader quickly let go of the tray, only to see the explosives bag dragging Mars and quickly flying towards the Japanese position. Soon violent explosions sounded on the Japanese positions. The voice was muffled, like thunder in the sky. Although the direction is a bit crooked. But in terms of the effect of the explosion, it was still very good, and a large section of barbed wire behind the devil's position was blown away.

"Two dogs. You're fucking crooked, do it again, quick! The artillery platoon commander yelled angrily.

"Yes"

"Boom"

Another shot, with the experience just now, this time it was obviously accurate, and the landing point of the explosive package was exactly the middle of the Japanese army's front-line position. After a violent explosion. I saw that the Japanese troops within a radius of more than 20 meters from the devil's position were either directly killed or stunned by the huge shock wave, and twenty or thirty devils lost their combat effectiveness under the attack of flying thunder.

Seeing that the effect was good, the artillery platoon commander immediately ordered: "Two people in a group, five rapid fire, hurry." ”

With the order of the artillery platoon commander. At one time, hundreds of explosive packs flew to the forward positions of the Japanese army, and gradually extended into the town. The Japanese puppet army, which was originally very crazy, soon fell silent, and there was no sound in the entire position except for the dull explosion of explosive packets.

The effect of the flying thunder's attack was far beyond Tu Hu's expectations, and from the telescope, I could see the rising smoke and flames rising from the Japanese position, and the dull sound of explosions came and went, and all the light and heavy firepower set up by the Japanese army on the frontline position was destroyed, and in terms of the strike effect, it was no less than an artillery regiment's continuous shelling for an hour, which was really a bit amazing.

At this moment, not only Tu Hu was stunned, but even Chen Xudong, Lu Ming and others who were watching the battle from the sidelines were also shocked, what kind of weapon did this second battalion use, and this lethality would be so terrifying, if it could be popularized throughout the army, then the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army would have a new breakthrough.

"Lao He, you are the political commissar of the 274 Brigade, are you familiar with that Tu Hu? How is this person? Chen Xudong asked a little eagerly.

"It's okay, I've dealt with it a few times, and on the surface it looks like a muddy person, from a bandit. But in fact, he is a meticulous guy who leads the troops with his own set. He and Fang An are two extremes, Fang An picks soldiers and looks for those good children with innocent backgrounds, so that they are easy to shape. And this slaughtering tiger is to pick some soldiers, ruffians, and thorns, anyway, if the one is not good, he wants that, and the one that doesn't care if he wants that. ”

"And such people?" Chen Xudong asked in surprise.

"Well, he led the troops according to the way he was a horse bandit, the discipline of the troops was very poor, fights and brawls often occurred, and there were a few blatant killings of prisoners on the battlefield. However, the combat effectiveness of this army is really not to say, whether it is the elite 16th Division of the Japanese army or the large units of the puppet army, they have suffered losses in their hands. ”

Then He Xiulin continued: "And this guy Tuhu has been a bandit for more than 20 years, it can be said that he is a gambler by nature, as long as there is still a 20% hope of winning, he will give it a try." In the previous war, Tu Hu was only a company commander, but that guy actually led an infantry company to chase a puppet regiment for a day, and finally defeated the regiment from the front, and also captured a battalion and an artillery company of the enemy, which caused a sensation in the military region. ”

At this time, Lu Ming opened his mouth and added: "This guy is indeed a good hand at fighting, but he is also born to be a troublemaker, every time after the battle, all the wounded soldiers of the Japanese army on the battlefield will never be left alive, and once he happened to be seen by the political commissar Yun who inspected the battlefield, and was almost sent to the military court." Fortunately, the commander came forward to release him, but he was also dismissed, and later the lack of military cadres in the army transferred him back as a company commander and battalion commander, and some time ago he was ready to be promoted to the county brigade as a captain, but unfortunately this kid didn't like the county brigade and said that he wouldn't go, so he was still here as his main battalion commander. ”

Chen Xudong thought for a while and concluded: "According to what you said, this guy is a soldier to put it bluntly, he doesn't say anything about fighting, he has courage and ideas, but he has many problems and poor discipline." ”

"Yes, that's it!" He Xiulin said.

"Such an officer is a treasure, you just said that this guy looks like Wu Xiuda, I don't think it's true, I see the shadow of the commander in this guy. I think that our commander was also a bold person who came crazy, and people sent bandits and horses to be crazy, and when he was in Jiangxi, Lao Jiang once offered tens of thousands of oceans to reward the commander for arrest. Although this Tuhu is not as good as a commander in terms of political consciousness and other aspects, and he also lacks operational command, he does not say anything about this method of action. ”

He Xiulin and Lu Ming didn't expect Chen Xudong to give Tu Hu such a high evaluation, and they were a little surprised.

However, He Xiulin immediately smiled and said: "Political commissar, don't praise him like this, this kid is the most unpraised, if this word reaches that kid's ears, it won't take a few days for something to happen." ”

"Hehe, okay, that kid has cleaned up all the little devils on the periphery of the town, let the big army charge, remember that after this battle, recommend that Fang An and this slaughtering tiger to the headquarters of the military region, and let them go to the officer training course held by the commander for further study, and it won't take long to ensure that there are two generals again." Chen Xudong said.

"Okay, I've got you covered!"
