Chapter 155: No One Owes Anyone Section 1 The train that reverses back
In the station duty room, the Japanese army's Nakasa asked the operator to call the phone of the Hanzhuang Road office, and someone on the other end of the phone quickly answered, of course, the call he called was answered by the old blind man, and the Japanese was right! This Nakasa was relieved, standing on the platform with his saber, waiting for the train to come, the car will come soon, but something is wrong!
Before the train enters the station, it is necessary to slow down, generally pull the whistle, release steam, and brake, but the front of this train is still steaming, and the wheels are spinning rapidly, which is to slow down and stop! The commander of the devil felt that something was wrong, and turned around and wanted to run into the fortifications, but seven or eight bullets flew from the wheelhouse of the locomotive, and he poured this Nakasa point on the platform.
As soon as you enter the edge of the platform, a large cloud of steam is spewed out from under the front of the car, and the body is speeding all the way, and the entire platform is completely enveloped by the steam spewed out by the front of the car, and the devils on the platform can't open their eyes when they are sprayed by the steam.
The devils are the second King Kong who can't figure it out, and the crooked handle and the 38 big cover in the carriage haven't stopped! Anyway, I can't see clearly, so I just swept the platform into a mess, and threw down more than a dozen grenades, and the devils on the platform were crying wolf, and the living devils hadn't reacted yet, and when the steam dispersed, the tail of the train had passed the station!
Only then did they find that the commander had been killed, and there were more than a dozen devils who were dead and wounded, and several officers who were quick to dodge checked and estimated that the train was hijacked by the Eighth Road, and immediately reported to Baoding City, but they found that the call could not be made!
The whole Baoding is a mess! There has never been such chaos, and all the strongholds, garrisons, bases, etc. outside the city have been attacked. The perimeter of the base in Ximachi was attacked by fire from the Eighth Road. I don't know what kind of "fire bomb" is fired by a new weapon. When it falls to the ground, it shatters into at least dozens of fireballs, and when it hits a person, it catches fire!
Qingyuan, Anxin, Gaoyang, Xushui and other places were all besieged, and it was impossible to see how many eight-way attacks there were in the dark night, and they all reported that they were besieged by at least tens of thousands of eight-way people, and the eight-way even had artillery!
As long as there are Japanese strongholds and garrisons with telephones and radios, the commander has almost broken the crank on the telephone box and wants reinforcements! Reinforcements! Still want reinforcements!
After the first hour of confusion and panic, the Devil Garrison Headquarters in Baoding reported to the Front Army Headquarters in Beiping. They judged that the Eighth Route must have wanted to repeat the old trick again, and used the feint of besieging the surrounding strongholds to attract the troops in Baoding City to send reinforcements, either to ambush or to directly attack Baoding City.
This must have been the cooperation between the main force of the Eighth Route Base Area in Luxi and the main force of the Eighth Route in the central Hebei region, mobilizing their main force to attack Baoding, a stockpiling place of materials and a gathering place of soldiers, to disrupt the attack plan of the imperial army before the sweep against them began.
Therefore, the headquarters of the front army in Beiping ordered the Japanese troops in various places to hold the fortifications, and the Japanese troops in Baoding City to hold the station and material base. Don't go out of the city and fight against the Eight Roads.
At the same time, troops were drawn from Hejian, Anguo, Wangdu and other places to reinforce several besieged county towns and other places.
The Japanese headquarters in Baoding City conveyed the orders of the front army to all the strongholds and garrisons where the calls came. Clearly tell them that they take care of themselves, they are not allowed to attack or evacuate the stronghold or turret, and hold on until dawn, and the devil also understands that the offensive of the Eighth Route is a night offensive, and the Eighth Route has no air superiority and maneuverability at dawn, and on the plain it is a rabbit pursued by hunting dogs!
I've received orders, and I've been answered, but I'm out of recruitment, don't think about the reinforcements, let's fight with all your might! All the devils in Ximachi have been mobilized, take all the guys they can find, and put out fires everywhere! In fact, they didn't know that Balu hadn't invented any new weapons, but the earthen fireballs fired by the large slingshots!
And Xiguan Station, because the phone didn't get through at the beginning, I don't know what the situation is in Baoding City, Xiguan City Gate is also closed, the captain of the station squadron also hung up, the deputy captain and a few officers discussed, the hijacked train has to be found, if you can't get through the phone, you can't get through, let's go to find the train first!
The devils of the two squads and a platoon of puppet soldiers shook the trigger car and creaked along the railway to the south, which was really worrying along the way! I couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness all around, and the flashes of light in the distance that didn't burst out still showed that the battle was still going on, and the barbed wire fences on both sides of the railway could more or less give these devils some psychological comfort.
Chased out of the Lu for about ten miles, and it seemed that I saw the outline of a train through the night! Not far ahead, according to the itinerary, this is near Sitai Village, where the Pinghan Line and the Baoman Line meet, and the devil has a large stronghold and a Taoist room in Shuluyuan Village at the intersection.
But if you get closer, you can see clearly, Shuluyuan Village is also a fire, and through the firelight, you can also see large clouds of smoke and flashes around the turret from time to time, no need to ask, this is also attacked by the eight roads!
The vice captain who led the team is hesitant, do you want to go for reinforcements? If I didn't make trouble in the past, I had to be surrounded by the Eighth Road, and there was nothing around the railroad tracks to rely on, so I couldn't get cheap to fight.
As he was hesitating, the soldier on the trigger car reminded him that the train seemed to be coming! The vice-captain squinted his eyes and stared, as if he was moving! The soldier who put his ear to the railroad tracks also reported that there was a vibration on the tracks, and it looked like the train was heading this way!
Could it be that the Eighth Road is still driving the train back to attack the station? The vice captain sweated on his spine! Hurriedly! Hurriedly! Get on the trigger car and run back! Go defend!
This little devil is about to break the rocker of the trigger car! It's really a desperate run back! The speed of the four wrenches is really not slow! If this person feels like a bullet behind his buttocks, he can really use all the strength to eat!
Finally arrived at the edge of the station, and the deputy captain jumped off without waiting for the train to stop! I was brought down by inertia, my face was broken, and I didn't care about the pain, so I got up and shouted to all the soldiers to be on alert and ready to fire!
No one had stopped the wrench cars, and they just bumped into each other and pushed the ground before they stopped on the tracks, right in the middle of the platform.
It's really here! The train is coming! It's not the front of the car facing this way, it's the car at the back of the car facing forward, and the train is coming back in reverse!
Fire! The deputy captain gave an order, and the 92-style, crooked handles, rifles, grenadiers, and small cannons all opened fire! It is impossible for our people to drive back the train that was driven away by the Eighth Road, and it is not borrowed from it, and there are no railroad tracks in the mountains west of the Eighth Road, so they don't want it!
Bullets rained down on the train like water, and the small car with people in the back of the car was smashed to sawdust, and sparks slipped on the iron sheet! The glass was shattered, and an Imperial soldier rushed over very heroically and threw a grenade into the carriage that had just entered the platform! There was a loud bang, the carriage shook a few times, smoke mixed with debris came from the glassless windows and doors, and the iron sheet covering the roof of the car was also lifted, and the lower half was slumped, and the platform clanged against the platform.
I didn't see someone's stump or arm being blown out, and I didn't see anyone running out, there was no one here! In just a few moments, the rear of the train collided with the trigger car parked in the middle of the platform!
The squeaky sound of metal grinding and crashing, and the sharp and piercing sound of wheels rubbing against the rails, literally tore people's eardrums apart! Many devil soldiers plugged their ears with their hands and watched the train that was getting slower and slower.
Finally, the train pushed the trigger cars, and after the trigger cars were severely deformed, the trigger cars, which had become almost a large pile of scrap metal, got stuck between the rails and sleepers, and the train stopped moving, and the steaming locomotive stopped at the southernmost side of the platform.
The deputy captain waited for a minute, looked at the situation, and felt that there was probably no one on the train, maybe the eighth road got off at Sitai, changed the train to a reverse one, and let it drive back by itself. (To be continued......)
