Chapter Seventy-Two: Encountering Hard Stubble

It turned out that this stronghold was attacked by the stragglers of the Jin Sui army at the beginning of its establishment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the end, although the stronghold was not defeated, Tanaka, the supreme commander of the Japanese army in the stronghold, was still taken aback.

So, the next day, he caught more than 100 young men in the surrounding villages, and under the command of the puppet army, he built the three-story running building in front of him.

After running the building, although the stronghold was attacked by two more Jin Sui troops, the condescending Lieutenant Nakata easily defeated the attackers with machine guns under his command, and killed and wounded more than 100 Jin Sui troops.

With this exploit, Nakata's military rank was directly changed from lieutenant to lieutenant, and he was promoted to squadron leader.

Because the reinforcements of the expanded brigade of the wing had not yet arrived, the wing headquarters only supplemented him with a heavy machine gun squad and a mortar squad, and as soon as the reinforcements arrived, the Japanese troops in the Guanliang stronghold were directly expanded into squadrons.

The promotion of military ranks, the expansion of the troops, and the fact that the headquarters even strengthened themselves with a Type 92 and a mortar as a reward made Captain Nakata full of confidence in his future.

In addition to being happy, he specially asked the puppet army to find two beautiful daughters-in-law from the villages around the stronghold to come back, so that they could be chic and celebrate.

The Japanese army was full of confidence, but Wang Ping frowned.

Mortars are powerful, but that's for soldiers exposed to fire. There was little destructive power to the fortifications and the masonry muzzles in front of them.

The three mortars equipped by the artillery platoon, unless the shells are directly fired into the running building, will blow up a little skin on the turret.

However, it was not easy to get here, and Wang Ping was unwilling to fight a dozen times.

After some hesitation, Wang Ping finally decided to attack. Maybe if you're lucky, you can find a flaw in the devil in the next battle, so as to take the Guanliang stronghold in one fell swoop.

As a stronghold equipped with both mortars and heavy machine guns, Wang Ping is sure that the devils must have hoarded a lot of equipment and materials in the stronghold. The expansion of the independent battalion is in time, whether it is equipment or other materials, or even the military uniforms of the devils for the winter, they are all urgently needed by Wang Ping, and if there is a chance to take the stronghold, Wang Ping will definitely not let it go.

"It's still the old rule, the second company attacks head-on, and the third company attacks from behind. The devil has a running building, don't save me bullets when attacking, two machine guns are staring at a shooting hole, make sure to suppress the devils in the turret! Wang Ping calmly faced and began to give orders directly!

"Artillery platoon, staring at the devil and running to bombard me, try to trample the turret for me. Also, the devil is also equipped with a mortar, which is erected on the roof of the turret without accident, so after the attack begins, it must be knocked out in the shortest possible time and not let it fire! ”

"You three sharpshooters, find your own fighters to hunt devils and puppet army officers. As for the ordinary soldiers of the puppet army, if they can not kill, they will not be killed, maybe in a few days, they will become our comrades-in-arms! ”

"All for all...... Woo woo woo ......" As soon as the three dull cannon shots rang out, the scream of shells across the sky rang out over the battlefield.

In less than three seconds, the devil ran to the roof of the building and burst out of an orange-red fireball, which was particularly dazzling. Then there was the front and right side of the turret, followed by a ball of fire, and finally three violent explosions reached the ears of the soldiers of the independent battalion.

Because the distance was too far, Wang Ping couldn't see what was happening on the roof of the turret.

But the two lights that the devil arranged on the roof of the turret went out instantly, making Wang Ping very sure that the shelling effect just now was good.

The gunners next to the three mortars, fine-tuning the angle of fire, were just about to stuff the second shell into the barrel, and the six grenadiers equipped by the two companies also fired.

Because their fortified turrets could not cause damage, the six grenadiers wisely chose to shell the Japanese puppet positions around the stronghold.

The violent sound of artillery broke the silence of the battlefield and woke up all the Japanese puppet soldiers in their sleep, including the squadron leader, Captain Nakata.

"Where did the enemy come from in Baga, he was even equipped with mortars!" Nakata, who slept on the second floor of the turret, was awakened by the violent explosion above his head, and then asked loudly to the slightly panicked subordinates around him.

"It is not known who it is, but the enemy, armed with at least three mortars, five grenadiers, is inflicting artillery fire on us!" An ensign hurried over to report.

Nakata was furious, shocked and scolded loudly: "Eight Grid Tooth Road, what are you panicking about? We also have mortars, we have grenadiers. The artillery and grenadiers were ordered to immediately counterattack. Others are ready for battle, and as soon as the enemy appears, we destroy them with machine guns. We're running in the building, and the enemy outside can't help us at all! ”

"In addition, order the troops and puppet troops outside the stronghold to stand still. As soon as we repel the enemy's attack, we will immediately launch a counterattack and destroy the enemy who dares to attack us! ”

With the order, the chaotic situation in the turret was obviously much better.

Three crooked handles and one heavy machine gun were erected in four directions on the second floor of the turret, ready to shoot at any time. As for the other positions, there were two or three riflemen next to each shooting hole, holding their rifles, in a posture of shooting out at any time.

Nakata nodded in satisfaction, and then unhurriedly put on his military uniform, ready to personally command this defensive battle.

At this time, the second lieutenant who had just left rushed over and reported with a worried face: "Captain, the mortars and grenadiers we set up on the roof of the turret have been blown up, and we can't counterattack!" ”

Nakata was stunned at first, but quickly reacted and scolded loudly: "What's the panic, without mortars, we still have light and heavy machine guns, rifles, and grenades, and we can still hold the stronghold!" ”

"Our turret is so strong that a mortar can't destroy it. As long as the turret is not destroyed, we will be able to hold the stronghold with the turret and defeat the enemies who want to attack us! ”

Under the fierce shelling, the Japanese puppet army stronghold was not chaotic, and in the face of this situation, Wang Ping's brows furrowed even deeper, and he realized that he had hit a hard stubble.

"Let's try it first!" Wang Ping, who had no other way, decisively ordered.

Zhang Yunshan next to him nodded and ordered: "All the light and heavy machine guns are fired, and the others are covering, one shift." Rush to the bottom of the turret and throw a grenade into the shooting hole to kill the devil! ”

"Dada...... Bang bang bang ...... "At the shooting holes that had been prepared for a long time, rifles, crooked handles, and heavy machine guns, they shot together, and the dense bullets instantly hit the devil's turret with sparks.

The shooting hole was too small, and it was far away, and the position was high, most of the bullets were fired at the outer wall of the turret, and few bullets flew into the shooting hole, causing damage to the devils.

But such a dense offensive firepower, no matter what, can be used to suppress the devils, and it can also attract the devils' counterattack firepower.

As soon as the second company fired, a squad of more than a dozen riflemen rushed out.

Bending over, with a rifle in hand, trotting down the S route, he quickly rushed towards the devil's turret.

Wang Ping stared at a pair of eyes, staring closely at the devil's turret and a dozen or so subordinates.

Captain Nakata, the devil, is a data eggplant, perhaps because of the experience of defeating the stragglers and brave attacks of the Jin Sui army in the first two times, Nakata is particularly confident in the battle in front of him.

As soon as a group of more than a dozen people entered his field of vision, Nakata excitedly ordered: "Counterattack, shoot immediately, and destroy the enemy who is attacking us!" ”

Dozens of devils hiding in the turret, completely ignoring the offensive fire of the independent battalion 100 meters away, opened fire on the squad in the face of bullets that might have entered the shooting hole.

A heavy machine gun, a crooked handle, plus six or seven three or eight big covers, in the blink of an eye, seven or eight people fell in one class, and one life whimpered.

There were still three or four people who reacted quickly, and quickly lay on the ground, suppressed by the bullets fired from the Japanese battery, and couldn't move.
