Chapter 413: Catching a Turtle in an Urn
The chaos in Hongkou in Shanghai and the reinforcements rushed from all over the country did not affect the process of Liu Zhong's planning.
In order to avoid trouble catching these demons in the wilderness, Liu Zhong laboriously drove Hatohiko of the Asakanomiya into the capture place that had been set up in advance.
The intensive sniping allowed Fujita's first echelon to hold out for only two or three minutes, and most of them were killed. The machine gun went off for less than three seconds, and there was no movement. Holding on to the heights, in front of sniper rifles, without artillery support, is a joke.
The second echelon went up, and the gunfire was dense again. It's just that the Japanese still haven't seen where the bullets are flying from.
And they didn't know what to do, less than a hundred meters below them, in the wild grass, a pair of eyes were staring at them.
Fujita rushed up to the mountain in the second echelon, consolidating the position, and shouted: "The reserve is to build a defensive position nearby!" ”
With his shout, the Japanese troops in front of the truck moved one after another, and in the dust, they began to dig trenches at a distance of about 100 meters from the truck, so as to plan to hold on to the enemy in case of attack.
The Japanese army's civil fortifications are very good, and the skills can be called upstream, and in the sound of gunfire, a ring fortification slowly reveals its rudiments.
Fujita also saw the situation at the artillery at this time, and ordered the artillery position to be reconstructed and constructed in the truck circle.
With the order, a mortar was dismounted from the truck, a base was laid on the back of the truck, a tripod was erected, and the observer began to set the elements according to the banner of the mountain.
Liu Zhong saw the flag on the mountain bag shaking, and hurriedly grabbed the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Heavy sniper group, the Japanese artillery position is setting up Zhuyuan, find the position, and kill the artillery!" ”
Outside, the hidden heavy sniper began to search. But the truck was blocked, and they couldn't see the artillery, and then, with the sound of tom, a projectile flew towards the location of the Huya soldiers who were sniping at the hilltop position. A loud bang followed, and the flames were rising. A member of the team was hit by a shell, exploded three or four meters high, rolled over, sprinkled blood all the way, and fell more than ten meters away.
"!!"
Liu Zhong scolded, quickly looking around, looking for a higher position. Turning his head, a large half-withered locust tree on the left came into view.
He stood up and flew with his heavy sniper. Among the bushes, a few breaths rushed to the foot of a big tree as thick as a tabletop, his footsteps did not stop, he raised his legs and kicked towards the trunk of the tree, his toes connected the dots, and his free hand was about to fall backwards at the moment when the lightning stretched out, and grabbed a trunk as thick as an arm four meters above the ground. Then turn it over, and use your hands and feet together. As the second round of shells flew, they quickly climbed to the top of the tree. With a loud bang, the muzzle of the gun stretched out and rested on a branch the thickness of a cup.
Here he saw the positions behind the trucks and saw six or seven mortars. and 92 infantry guns being erected.
"Oh yes! If I wasn't worried about blowing you rabbit cubs, I would have a chance to let you shoot?! ”
Liu Zhong cursed, tested the wind direction, calculated the angle of fire, and loaded the mortar at the moment when the Japanese army loaded the mortar. His gun went off.
Touch!
The bullet passed over the heads of the Japanese soldiers in the distant mountain and pressed against the top of the truck, and with a loud bang, it hit a mortar. The huge force immediately lifted the mortar away, and the sparks flew in all directions, and the hands of the Japanese soldier who threw the shells were torn off in an instant, and the two deputy gunners behind him were hit by the flying cannon body, and there was no scream, and at the same time, the blood spurted out, and the cannon body fell backwards.
As soon as Liu Zhong hit the first, he quickly moved the muzzle of the gun and pulled the trigger steadily.
While!
Another mortar was knocked away, and a Japanese soldier behind him was also killed, and the muzzle of the gun inserted half of his brain, obviously not surviving.
The sudden change made the artillery position panic for a while, but no one dared to leave, and the shells were still filled in, and then the tom sounded.
At the moment when the third round of shells flew, Liu Zhong had already fired five shots in a row, knocking five mortars into the air, quickly changing the magazine, and in a panic stall behind the truck, even the two 92 infantry guns were destroyed and lost the ability to shoot.
"There!!"
The generals who were hiding behind the truck and observing saw the fire in the distance, in the binoculars. Liu Zhong's figure with the muzzle of the gun clearly visible.
1,000 meters away......
Major General Takayoshi Tanaka, who has a wealth of experience in artillery, muttered that for the first time he had seen a gun that could accurately hit a target more than a thousand meters away, and that gun he had never seen before, so big, and with a scope.
The moment all the generals saw the heavy sniper, they retracted their heads one after another, lest they become the target of the sniper. They saw the images of the mortars being sent flying, and it was definitely not blind.
Ryosuke Yoshizumi came back to his senses and shouted from behind the truck: "Report to the headquarters, the other side has super guns, conservatively estimated to have a range of 1,200 meters, call for emergency support, call for air support!" ”
Hearing the shouts of Lieutenant General Ryosuke Yoshizumi, one of the guards got up and ran towards a truck opposite, then lifted the curtain and entered the car.
At the moment when Liu Zhong at the top of the tree finished cleaning those cannons, he caught the running Japanese soldiers in the scope, he paused, and immediately saw the antenna erected on the truck.
"Sending a report?!"
Liu Zhong snorted coldly, then aimed at the truck, and shot it over.
The guard officer who got into the truck was there to send a message, but before the message was halfway out, there was a loud bang, and a strong force passed against his neck, scraping his neck and hitting the 100-watt radio station, sparks flew in all directions, and then punched a hole in the front of the car, revealing the sky outside.
Liu Zhong saw a few unarmed Japanese soldiers jumping out of the truck in a panic, he grabbed the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Heavy snipers lock all radio stations, knock them all out!" ”
With Liu Zhong's order, a cloud of blood mist suddenly burst out in the crowd of Japanese soldiers, and in the screams, several portable radio stations were hit, and the huge bullets not only tore apart the bodies of the Japanese soldiers, but also broke the radio stations into parts.
Finished......
All the generals wailed in their hearts the moment the truck smoked.
Shelling, due to the sparse position of the Huya team members, the dodge was still timely, only two people were killed by the shells falling beside them, two people were injured, and nothing else was hindered. The sniping did not stop, and in the second wave of Japanese troops went up to the position for less than three minutes, the Japanese troops on the position no longer dared to show their heads out of the mountain. They don't even know where the enemy is.
"The assault group is moving, we are going to catch turtles in the urn!"
Liu Zhong ordered in the walkie-talkie the moment he saw the truck and no one set up the gun.
With his order, the anxious team members who had been waiting for a long time raised their heads from the grass, and the ground moved like the grass, the waves surged, and then, a grenade flew to the top of the mountain, and in the panic and shouts of the Japanese soldiers, it was as fast as thunder, and in the shock wave of the explosion, it rushed to the top of the mountain, and then the muzzle of the gun moved quickly, killing all the panicked Japanese soldiers who blew up on the back slope of the mountain, and occupied their positions.
Amid the explosion at the top of the mountain, Fujita was startled, brandishing his command knife and roaring, "Enter the defensive position!" ”
The fortifications that had just been dug up a little more than a meter were quickly filled with soldiers at the shouts of Fujita, and light and heavy machine guns were also placed.
On the mountain four or five hundred meters away, the Huya soldiers who had just cleared the remnants of the Japanese army on the back slope of the mountain poked out their guns, and in the grass, locked the Japanese soldiers who had entered the position, and in the figure of their comrades rushing behind them, the sound of popping suddenly sounded.
Liu Zhong also put away his gun after giving the order, quickly got off the tree, changed to semi-automatic, and ran towards the distant position.
At the same time as he rushed out, the aircraft carriers in Shanghai and the Hongkou airfield received orders from the base camp to dispatch bombers and attack planes to rescue Prince Hatohiko of Asakanomiya.
The moment the order was received, the aircraft carrier and the airfield immediately jumped up, and everyone became busy, and then one plane after another took off into the air, and the five flamingos and four reconnaissance planes at the head flew to Changzhou first, and flew to the location called Taipingzhuang.
One hundred and sixty kilometers to Changzhou, and another forty kilometers to Taipingzhuang, the flamingo can reach the battlefield without even an hour.
By the time the plane took off, the battle of encirclement and suppression was nearing its end.
The Japanese soldiers hiding in the trenches had no chance to hide in sight from the top of the mountain, and they placed their guns in fear under the precise sniping on the top of the mountain, and then their heads exploded and fell into the grave they had dug for themselves.
Hatohiko of Asaka Palace did not have the demeanor of a general at this time, and he was not as calm as Yoshisumi Ryosuke and other generals, and his face was pale. He saw that Fujita's excellent troops didn't even have the strength to fight back in front of the enemy, and he suddenly had an unreal illusion that the enemy was just letting them march all the way, and they didn't really fight against them, and their combat effectiveness was not as vulnerable as he judged. He even suspected that the troops he was leading had penetrated into the enemy's full set.
Liu Zhong ran to the top of the mountain, and the battle was almost over.
He looked at the situation below, took out his walkie-talkie and shouted: "Taozi, I need 10,000 soldiers, move quickly, rush to the main battlefield within twenty minutes, and the rest are ready to evacuate, it will be over in half an hour here!" ”
Sun Tao had already moved to the middle of Changzhou and Taipingzhuang, he was less than ten kilometers away from Liu Zhong, and when he heard Liu Zhong's call, he immediately replied and immediately sent someone to arrive.
With that, a column left the second line of defense, ran, and ran towards Taipingzhuang.
Liu Zhong put down the walkie-talkie and raised his gun to join the sniper.
There were already few Japanese troops left, and the muzzles of the guns on the top of the mountain increased rapidly, and in just two or three minutes, no one moved on the position, and even the Japanese troops hiding in the pit with their heads in their hands did not let go.
Realizing that they were doomed in the blood mist, the generals roared and pushed Hatohiko into a truck, ready to protect him from the siege. But the truck didn't even have a chance to catch fire, and before the two drivers could get close to the front of the car, they were killed, and then the crowd of people poured down the hill and rushed towards the truck in the wave of guns and guns......
