Chapter 52 Quilt Raiders

The answer was soon revealed. Originally, Wu Gang and Meng Kailan still felt strange, in the attack on the 4th, the Japanese army dispatched more than 3,000 devils, but nearly 100 ships were mobilized, and this time only one brigade was dispatched, so why did they need about 60 ships? According to the conversion, thirty, at most forty is enough.

After the battle on the 4th, Wu Gang had gained some experience in anti-landing warfare, such as the use of mortars when the Japanese army crossed the lake. This time, because there were 122 regiments to help the fist, and the two regiments added up to more than 60 mortars, this one fired together, and its formation was impressive. I only heard the sound of the whole sound, and then the sound of grenades breaking through the air, dozens of grenades flew in the air at the same time, and the sound of pulling them out was harsh and sharp, and the faces of the devils on the ship immediately changed. Then an unexpected scene appeared for Wu Gang, Meng Kailan and others, all the ships turned around almost at the same time, and they actually turned around and ran away.

The Japanese advocate martial arts and bravery, and there are many people who do not want to die in battle, and the phenomenon of turning around and running away without firing a shot like today can be said to be quite rare, and Wu Gang was dumbfounded at that time. The time chosen by the little devil to escape was very good, almost the cannon sounded here, and the other side began to turn around, and then, the effect of this round of shelling can be imagined. Sixty guns fired one round each, and only one was blown up.

"Damn, the little devil is a good learner!" Yu Liang took off his helmet and touched his head and said.

Although the 123rd Regiment lost a lot of people in the battle on the 4th, it also got a lot of credit, such as Wu Gang, according to the sequence, he is still ranked behind himself in the division headquarters, but whenever there is an opportunity for two regiments to fight together, under normal circumstances, it is right to listen to him. And just because they won a big battle yesterday, the current situation is that he must listen to Wu Gang. A soldier regards obedience to orders as his duty, and he naturally can't show the slightest disobedience to the arrangement of the brigade headquarters, but this is uncomfortable in his heart after all. After the 4th, the Japanese hibernated for several days, which made Yu Liang, who was anxious to make meritorious contributions, very anxious, worried that the Japanese would change their strategy and not attack the lake, or choose Yanlie Mountain as the main direction of attack. Seeing the little devil launch an attack today, I thought I could make a profit, but who knew that this situation actually appeared in Lu Dao now.

Wu Gang had already picked up the phone and asked the mortar company to stop firing. Then, he glanced at Yu Liang and the others and said, "Little devil, this is trying to consume our ammunition?" ”

Yu Liang and the others thought about it and felt reasonable. Just after this round of shelling, the little devil saw that this side was no longer **, so he turned around and rushed over again.

Because of the design angle, the accuracy of the mortar in bombarding a fixed target is very high, but the effect of hitting a moving target is very poor, which is also the reason why the round of shelling just now failed to achieve results. After this period of observation, Wu Gang discovered something new, the Japanese ship was very far apart, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of his own artillery aiming, at least, it was impossible to fish in troubled waters by luck. It seems that after the 4th World War, the Japanese really learned well.

"What now? Isn't it a little closer to fight! Jiang Youwei looked at Wu Gang and asked.

Wu Gang put down the binoculars, looked at him and Yu Liang and said, "Look at what else is on the devil's boat, it looks weird, could this be the killer feature of Nakajima Village?" ”

In the first battle of No. 4, the 106th Division suffered heavy losses, and the Japanese had a stubborn personality and were accustomed to getting up where they fell, and today they are making a comeback, which must have been fully prepared.

In the first battle of No. 4, the 123rd Regiment played a majestic role, and the soldiers generally had a sense of arrogance against the enemy, which made Wu Gang a little worried, so he was more careful when observing the enemy's situation, and always wanted to find something in advance to prepare as much as possible.

Yu Liang and Jiang Youwei picked up the binoculars and looked at the minute carefully, Jiang Youwei said first: "It seems to be a quilt," and then he suddenly remembered something, and immediately said: "It's not good, it seems that the little devil wants to use a wet quilt as a body armor." Tuanza, Commander Yu, have you noticed, some little devils are pouring water on it. ”

Yu Liang had already seen it, he didn't think it was right at first, hearing Jiang Youwei say this, remembering the relevant knowledge he had heard in the military academy, his face changed, he looked at Wu Gang and said: "Old Wu, this Zhongdao Village is really not simple, and he can even think of this trick." The quilt is very good against bullets when it is stained with water, and it seems that the effect of our shelling today will be greatly reduced. ”

In the battle of No. 4, the salvo of mortars put a lot of pressure on the Japanese army, killing and wounding a lot of devils, although the number of mortars today is twice as many as that day, but looking at the actions of the Japanese army, they are scattering those quilts on the ship, unless the grenade hits the cabin, the killing effect on the ship and the devils is greatly reduced. Moreover, the little devils have a clear attitude to spend time with them, and their combat method of retreating if you ** I retreat, and I will enter if you don't use a cannon, is really a headache.

Nakajima sent only one brigade as a striker in order to test the effect of his newly invented quilt body armor. As it turned out, he racked his brains and stole home remedies from the partisans of the occupied territories really worked. The quilt was very light when it was not soaked in water, so at first, for the sake of speed, he did not let the soldiers put the quilt out. After determining the range of the Mortars of the Cadet Corps, the quilts were taken out and began to be laid on the gangs, roofs, and front and rear planks. The quilt drenched in water is not only fireproof, but also bulletproof, and the shelling of the Cadet Army again, except for two shells that directly drilled into the cabin and caused damage to the little devils, the others exploded on the side of the ship or on the top of the ship, but they failed to blow up the enemy ship, killing and injuring too many devils.

The little devil is also exploring the use of quilts, after the second round of shelling, when all the enemy ships turned around again, the door of the cabin was hung with wet quilts, so that the subsequent shelling did not have much effect, and even Wu Gang and Yu Liang and others looked at each other, and they were helpless one by one, so they could only give up the shelling. Since the shelling has no effect, it will be Langfei shells to continue firing. Although the Cadet Army is abundant, it is not to the point where it can be squandered wantonly. Two more rounds were ordered, but seeing that the effect was indeed not great, Wu Gang decisively ordered to stop the shelling. Then he said to Liang: "Brother, it seems that there is a hard fight today. If I'm not bad, the little devils will also use quilts to establish positions on the beachhead. ”

Yu Liang nodded: "Fortunately, we have arranged a few more minefields, otherwise, in case the Japanese army comes to attack on a large scale, the result is really difficult to say." Fuck—" He suddenly scolded, "There are so many quilts, how many people do the little devils have to loot to get them." Damn, this bastard in Nakajima Village, if he is caught by Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will castrate him! ”

Meng Kailan also saw this scene on the heights of Yanlie Mountain, and at first he didn't care about what the sudden extra colorful things on the Japanese ships were, but he was surprised by the tactics of the Japanese army advancing and retreating, and thought that Nakajima Qincun was worthy of being the "fox of Long Island", and that he really had a set of operational commands. It wasn't until Wu Gang called to report the new discovery that he realized the seriousness of the situation.

Wu Gang reported to him that he was worried that he would not be able to hold his position, and asked him to prepare for support as soon as possible. And after thinking about it for a while, he came up with a way to solve it. "It's not a big deal, if my guess is right, the Japanese are the ones who learned from the guerrillas. I heard that in North China, the local guerrillas used this method to deal with the dense firepower of their watchtowers - Wu Gang! ”

"The subordinates are here."

"Later, I'll ask Director Wu to send you thirty flamethrowers, with flamethrowers, not to mention wet quilts, even water can be lit, haluha, let's let the little devil taste the taste of roast duck!"

Since the oil fields in Hainan were put into production, flamethrowers have become one of the regular equipment of the cadet army. Originally, the flamethrower was used to attack fortifications, and it is said that it should not be used in the north this time. However, Ouyang Yun was worried that Madang Fortress would fall in advance as it did in history, and then it would become a fortress for the Japanese army, so he equipped some with him to prepare for seizing the bunker and burning the tunnel. Because the defenders of Madang Fortress have changed, they have not fallen ahead of time along the historical trajectory, and these flamethrowers have become decorations. But now, Nakajima's "wisdom" provides an opportunity for it to appear. After this battle, the flamethrowers of the Cadet Army were bound to leave a deep impression on the Japanese army.

The flame of the flamethrower, the temperature can reach up to more than 1,300 degrees, this temperature, as Meng Kailan said, can even ignite water, used to dry those quilts is not a piece of cake, Wu Gang heard this, immediately smiled, and slapped the brigade seat a little slap: "It's still the brigade is smart, I actually thought of such a method, halu ha, now, the so-called quilt trick in Nakajima Qin Village is destined to become a joke." ”

A quarter of an hour later, the Japanese flotilla came to shore. As Meng Kailan had guessed, the little devils washed up on the river beach with quilts, and then used the quilts to build fortifications. And those ships began to return home, presumably to pick up the second group of landed devils. Because the flamethrower had not yet been delivered, Wu Gang called Meng Kailan again to ask for instructions, whether it was true or false, and fighting for a while, which could not only paralyze the enemy, but also wait for the Japanese army to send another batch of devils over, so that the flamethrower could be annihilated in one fell swoop.

Meng Kailan was also in a good mood at this time. The 106th Division has only about ten brigades of two brigades, and if the devils who crossed the lake today are annihilated again, then in the next few days, Nakajima Jingcun will not be able to launch an offensive again. Hukou was too important to Madang, and although he was confident that he could defend the 106th Division's onslaught for about a month, it would be a hard battle, and it would be debatable how many men he could have left in his brigade. In this way, it is naturally best for the 106th Division to suspend the attack, so that if Madang's side is in danger, he may be sent to support. And then you will have the opportunity to fight next to the commander-in-chief, which will definitely be beneficial to your future. He thought about it for a while, and then agreed to Wu Gang's request. So next, the scene that made Nakajima Kimura happier and happier the more he watched it, happened as scheduled.
