Chapter 424 Late Night Fighting
When Sun Tao launched the attack, his orders on the walkie-talkie had already been transmitted from station to station within a radius of dozens of kilometers.
At this time, most of the reinforcements from Nanjing, Yangzhou and Zhenjiang, had already poured into this area, occupying all the main roads and commanding heights within a diameter of almost 30 kilometers, but because they arrived too late, they were only stationed and waited for tomorrow to start a carpet encirclement and suppression.
The enemies of Jiangyin, Wuxi, and Suzhou are still on the way, and they are expected to arrive in two days. The Japanese army in Hangzhou made a detour to Phoenix Mountain, and it was at most two days to enter the war zone.
In the case of the enemy everywhere, Sun Tao's troops were separated from the Huya team members, and they were scattered in a diameter of more than 30 kilometers in reinforced companies or reinforced battalions, and in the search and stationing of the Japanese army, they walked through the gaps between their defense areas, rushed to their respective positions, or guarded the Japanese troops stationed, or guarded some key roads and dangerous places.
After receiving an order from a distance, all the teams launched an attack on the target within ten minutes.
Liu Lin was near Danyang, and he was facing a logistics base guarded by a heavy artillery brigade. Here, it is the supply point of the troops of Yangzhou and Nanjing, and the artillery and ammunition base of the four divisions. Otherwise, there would not be a brigade stationed to guard it.
The Japanese did not expect that several squads of ten people were leisurely patrolling in their defense area, and the bombs had already been delivered to the trucks pulling shells when it was dark. Even the oil was not spared, and they had already sat on the coffin board and did not know what to do.
The strength in Liu Lin's hands is two Huya detachments and two recruit companies, which add up to the strength of a reinforced battalion, and it is a dream to eat the brigade, even if their sniper rifles have a long range, they can be more than 10,000 people. Kill for a while.
However, the massacre was not a day or two, and the order they received was to make the movement bigger, to disrupt the battlefield, so that all the Japanese troops could not find the main force. No enemy can be found, no reinforcements can be found, and they are fighting on their own. Otherwise, they would not have swallowed their anger and sneaked under the noses of the Japanese soldiers, watching the Japanese soldiers eat and drink, but they would have to stay up and lie in the grass.
At the moment when the order arrived, Liu Lin licked his lips excitedly, picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted, "Covert attack." The battle begins!! Shouting, the other hand began to press the remote-controlled detonators.
As his hand pressed, a loud bang resounded in the sky in the ball of fire that lit up the night sky, and the violent shock wave destroyed the entire Japanese ammunition camp, and at the same time as the huge mushroom cloud rose, there were no more buildings within a kilometer around. In the distance, those houses also collapsed in large areas, not to mention the Japanese troops nearby. Not a single one left.
The oil depot is two kilometers away, in the northwest corner of Danyang. At the same time as the explosion of the ammunition camp, the flames rose into the air, and the oil drums flew around with fierce burning flames, and when they landed, they were a sea of fire, and the Japanese troops within a radius of one or two hundred meters around were instantly engulfed by the flames at the moment when the oil drums hit the ground and smashed open. The screams resounded in the night sky at this moment.
With the explosion, the Japanese troops stationed outside the city immediately panicked, took up their weapons one after another, and rushed towards Danyang.
At this moment, the running Japanese army was illuminated by the Danyang firelight. One by one, they fell to the ground, and in a panic, they were trampled under the feet of their companions.
The attack was discovered a few seconds later, and the Japanese screamed in panic, but they did not know where the attack came from.
In the distance, the sniper rifle fired rapidly, and in just a few seconds, a magazine shot out of the air. Ten bullets, at least five enemies must be killed.
After the Japanese soldiers were constantly hit by bullets, the wounded howled in pain, and in the chaotic sound of Danyang, it was even more terrifying.
Major General Ishida Homichi, commander of the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery Brigade, was awakened by the loud noise and hurriedly left the camp and looked into the city. When he saw the flames of the ammunition camp and the oil camp, he was furious, roared wildly, and ordered the troops to surround the entire Danyang, so that the enemy who was engaged in sabotage had nothing to hide.
But before his order could reach the grassroots level, the surrounding troops guarding the artillery began to panic.
"What's going on?!"
Ishida asked.
A Shaozo ran over in a panic: "Report to Your Excellency General, our station has been attacked by the enemy!" ”
"Attack?"
Ishida Hodo looked back at the darkness behind him, and then ordered: "Mortars bombarded the surroundings, and flares rose into the air!" ”
The moment his order was given, Liu Lin's order also came. After each person shot a magazine, Liu Lin ordered all the men to retreat, and their mission was accomplished.
More than 400 people quietly rushed in the direction of the Japanese army in the confusion, and disappeared in a few minutes.
Not long after they left, the sound of a dense explosion came from behind them, and in the flickering firelight, all the mortars were used within a kilometer of their lurking surroundings. Flares rose one after another, and the surrounding kilometers were covered with snow.
"Fry it!"
The team members glanced back and ran fast without stopping.
At the same time as the attack in Liulin was here, fires flashed everywhere, and gunfire rang out intensively everywhere, and dozens of locations were attacked almost simultaneously, whether it was a large army or a small camp.
The sudden and chaotic gunfire made it impossible for the Japanese to find the south, south, and north, and all the small units were annihilated as long as they were below the brigade, and the corpses were everywhere, and the bullets and guns were collected.
The chaotic war officially began at this moment. The explosion in Danyang attracted the attention of the Japanese army far more than the gunfire in other places, and less than half a minute after the explosion, the Japanese soldiers who had woken up rushed to Danyang one after another. There, there was gunfire, there was the sound of artillery, and it was clear that a large force of the enemy was engaged in fire with the 6th Brigade.
A low ridge on both sides, with a dirt road leading to Danyang in the middle, and two squadrons, one on the left and one on the right, were stationed on the hill to guard this position that might be used as an ambush by the enemy.
However, where did the running Japanese army expect that here, there has been a change.
Liu Tiancheng, the captain of the Fifth Brigade of Huya, with three detachments and six companies, had quietly touched the two squadrons here when it was dark, and in the face of Huya's strong combat effectiveness, they lurked into their improvised fortifications, and in less than half a minute, the Japanese army did not even have a chance to shoot, so they gave up their positions to Liu Tiancheng.
Subsequently, the place was taken over, and the machine guns were still mounted, but the machine gunners had changed, and the roads were covered with mines, waiting for Japanese troops to pass by.
At the moment of the explosion in Danyang, a wing of Japanese troops assembled briefly, and the brigade rushed towards Danyang.
Liu Tiancheng watched the Japanese army enter the ambush circle in the dark, he held a 92 heavy machine gun, and whispered: "Keep up with the ammunition change board, don't let me cease fire." ”.
"Don't worry, captain, the supply is guaranteed, fifty bullet boards are enough for you to fight." His guard said lightly.
The Japanese army, seeing the red flashlight in front of them, did not hesitate to drill into this narrow passage, and ran towards Danyang, where the flames were soaring into the sky and the sound of artillery was continuous.
When the team had not yet entered and there was not much left, the Japanese soldiers who were running suddenly waded into the thunder, and with the light of the fire, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were blown up in the air.
The sound of the explosion is an order, as the explosion sounds, on the small mountain beams forty or fifty meters away on both sides, dense tongues of fire erupt suddenly, at this moment, no precision can be cared about, there are AK holding submachine guns and shooting long shots, and grenades without submachine guns are thrown down the mountain bag without money. The machine gun captured from the Japanese army, at this moment, no one cares about the barrel, no one cares if there will be a mechanical failure, all of them just press the muzzle, pull the trigger below and do not let go.
Receiving an abrupt blow, the Japanese army returned fire in a panic. But no matter how fast they reacted, they were far less sharp than the rush and the dense grenades that followed, and in the sound of the explosion, the Japanese troops immediately collapsed, howling, or lying down, or running for their lives, and no one had the heart to resist.
Hitting an ambush at such a close distance is a massacre for the warriors. More than 1,000 people against a standard infantry wing of more than 3,000 people is like playing. Amid the sound of gunfire and explosions, there were not many Japanese troops left who did not enter the ambush, and only a few dozen of them ran fast into the grass and ran for their lives. The rest, in two or three minutes, are all killed, and even the guns are saved by cleaning the battlefield, which one is not a few on the body, a dozen gun holes?
Liu Tiancheng threw the heavy machine gun in his hand with a red barrel at the moment when he couldn't see the figure below: "A detachment is on alert, and the others are cleaning the battlefield, and they are moving fast!" Evacuate in five minutes!! ”
Most of the soldiers were churning steadily, and under the light of the flashlight, they threw themselves into the battlefield full of blood, not caring about their stomachs, and quickly learned to clean up the belongings of the Japanese soldiers with the Huya soldiers, and even looked at their belts to see if there were any gold fasteners or jade carvings.
The Japanese soldiers who fled for their lives stopped in the darkness until they ran thousands of meters away, and dozens of people slowly gathered together, looking at the scattered points of light in the distance, unable to decide whether to go and see, or to find reinforcements from other troops.
It's a pity that they don't have to make up their minds, and while they are running, the several wings that they broke off for Liulin moved to a safe area after Liulin retreated to a safe area. And these dozens of Japanese soldiers happened to pass through the route where the fighters of a company were transferred, and when they heard the sound of fluttering running, the soldiers fell on their stomachs one after another, and before the target was determined, no one met the Japanese troops who were rushing dozens of meters away. Just as they were about to make contact, the Japanese army slowly stopped, and then whispered in a panting voice.
Hearing the Japanese, the soldiers who did not have guns immediately became excited, and in the gesture of the company commander, they slowly squatted up and knelt half-neel, and then, the dense gunshots rang out, and the dozens of Japanese soldiers who were discussing were shot one after another before they could understand it, and they fell in a pool of blood in a daze.
The chaotic battlefield confuses the Japanese army, and those who have not been attacked are not sure where to go for reinforcements, and the large army that has been attacked has thrown down hundreds of people, but they don't even know where the enemy is. In the chaotic gunfire, the command system failed, the team could not be contacted, and the gunfire and explosions everywhere made every Japanese soldier who was still alive think that a large force was coming...... (To be continued......)
