Chapter 455: It's Too Late (Fifth Update!) )
"Chief of Staff, the Flying Thunder Cannon was blown up by devils!" Hong Tao ran to Yang Xiong's side with a miserable face and reported.
"I saw it!" Yang Xiong's face was even more gloomy than just now.
Six explosives packs and one tank were not destroyed, and he also lost a lot of people, for Yang Xiong, the decision just now was very much more than worth the loss, and it was also very stupid.
After thinking for a few seconds, he replied: "Demoman prepare, just blast it with a dynamite pack!" ”
"The devil tank blocked the car in front, although it could block the bullets fired by our anti-aircraft machine guns, but it also blocked the bullets fired by the tanks themselves, and also blocked their vision. Organize death squads and rush out to blow up the devil tank! ”
The vision and muzzle of the devil tank were indeed blocked, but the vision of the devil behind the tank was not blocked, and the guns in their hands could still cause very large casualties to the death squad.
It can be expected that after the formation of the death squad, even if the tank can be blown up, there will be not much left of the death squad.
Hong Tao didn't want to do this, knowing that the formation of the death squad was to let the soldiers go to death and form it.
But when he saw Yang Xiong's eyes that were both painful and determined, he immediately understood that this was the only way to hold the mountain pass. Finally, he gritted his teeth and replied: "Don't worry, Chief of Staff, I will organize a death squad immediately, and I will definitely kill the devil tank!" ”
Three tanks were eventually blown up, and a new attack by the devils was repulsed. However, Yang Xiong couldn't see a smile on his face at all.
Of the more than sixty daredevils, only eleven fighters remained, and all of them were wounded.
"Yamaguchi can't hold it!" The atmosphere of the underground command was depressed, and Yang Xiong, who had been silent for nearly five minutes, had to decide with a painful face.
"Chief of Staff, there's really no other way!" Hong Tao's face was also very ugly, and he asked with the last glimmer of hope.
"There's no way, the attack just now, as long as the devil comes again, the mountain pass will be broken through. Don't look at the fact that we still have four permanent firing points in the pass, but we don't have any. Although there is a multi-link in the back, it can't withstand such a big consumption! Yang Xiong had a calm face and analyzed helplessly.
Then he began to give orders: "Lao Hong, arrange for the troops to retreat." Taking advantage of the fact that the next round of attacks by the devils has not yet begun, they all withdrew from their positions. When the devil plane comes, we can't retreat if we want to! ”
"Also, send a telegram to the head of the regiment, report the situation here to the head of the regiment, and let the head of the regiment prepare early. We probably won't be able to hold out for ten days! ”
In a big mountain five kilometers away from the battlefield, Wang Ping and the garrison regiment hid here.
The military region guard regiment sent by Commander Nie also arrived yesterday, and more than 3,000 people from the two regiments were all lurking here, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.
At the temporary headquarters set up in a tent, Wang Ping and Commander Zhou of the Guard Regiment were analyzing the information sent back by the reconnaissance platoon and looking for fighter planes.
At this moment, the communications platoon commander hurriedly walked in: "Regiment commander, chief of staff is in a hurry, there seems to be an accident in the arsenal!" ”
After reading the telegram, Wang Ping's good mood for the arrival of reinforcements disappeared at once.
Commander Zhou of the Guard Regiment, who also read the telegram, immediately discovered the problem: "Commander Wang, we must come up with a way to break the enemy as soon as possible." Otherwise, the devils will definitely use the same method, one by one, to break through our remaining defenses. ”
"No way!" Wang Ping, who was frowning, replied helplessly.
"Without anti-tank guns, there is no way to destroy the car that the devil is blocking in front of the tank, then we can't destroy the devil tank!"
"Also, the devil can attack our position with a car on top of it, and it can also attack our position with the wreckage of a tank!"
"As long as there is no way to destroy the devil tank, no matter how strong the fortifications we build outside the arsenal and how dangerous the terrain is, the devils will blow it up little by little."
Head Zhou was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "Then what should we do?" Watch the devils enter the arsenal and destroy it! ”
"No, the arsenal is our lifeblood, even if thousands of us die in battle, we must defend the arsenal!" Wang Ping said categorically.
Then, a thick murderous aura emanated from Wang Ping's body.
"Originally, I wanted to let the defense line outside the arsenal consume more devils and give us a chance to counterattack. Now, it seems, we can't wait. ”
"Commander Zhou, gather troops, distribute ammunition, whatever you lack, as long as I give everything I have, we will act tonight, at least to repel the Japanese army, so that they dare not continue to attack the arsenal so unscrupulously!"
Major General Yoshino was in a very good mood, and at noon, the mountain pass that had blocked him for nearly four days was finally breached.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the troops broke through a defensive line of the Eighth Route Army.
After the troops fought all the way here, there were only three kilometers left before the arsenal building.
"Yo Xi, this is a very good idea. Stop the offensive today, and after dawn tomorrow, continue to attack the next line of defense of the Eighth Route Army in the same way. Strive to spend two more days to kill the Eighth Route Army Arsenal, we have been delayed here for a long time! ”
"Your Excellency the General is wise! We have cars, and we can afford to lose twenty more cars. As long as there is no other way to do it, we will definitely be able to kill the Eighth Route Army Arsenal in two days! The chief of staff said with a flattering face.
Major General Yoshino enjoyed the compliments of his subordinates.
With a smile on his face, he ordered: "Watch out at night!" Although the main forces of the Eighth Route Army were held back by our other troops, it could not be ruled out that there were still fish that slipped through the net to reinforce the arsenal. For the Eighth Route Army, the arsenal is so important that we can't afford not to guard against it! ”
"Hey! Your Excellency, General! ”
For more than 10,000 days, the puppet army built a military camp along the mountain, which stretched for nearly two kilometers.
Tanks and armored vehicles, which served as the main force in the attack, became fixed firing points around the barracks when camping.
Once the barracks are attacked, these semi-permanent fire points can repel sneak attackers with great firepower.
On a high ground nearly three kilometers away from the Japanese puppet army's garrison, Wang Ping could clearly overlook the entire garrison.
The head of the guard regiment Zhou was the same, holding a telescope and staring at the devil's station. However, as he became more aware of the situation at the station, his face became more solemn.
Then he frowned and reminded Wang Ping: "Commander Wang, the Japanese puppet army is heavily guarded, with tanks and armored vehicles as fixed fire points, and there are a large number of patrol troops patrolling and guarding in the middle of these fire points, and a sneak attack is basically impossible!" ”
"Then attack!" Wang Ping said with a resolute face, and there was no room for negotiation in his tone.
"We can afford to wait, but the arsenal can't afford to wait!"
Speaking of the arsenal, the hesitation on Commander Zhou's face disappeared in an instant.
After the establishment of the arsenal, as a military district guard regiment, he definitely benefited the most.
Not only was the whole regiment replaced with a unified 38 cover, but each infantry platoon was equipped with one machine gun, the infantry company was equipped with three grenadiers, and the infantry battalion was equipped with three heavy machine guns. As for the units directly under the regiment, it is directly equipped with nine medium mortars in one mortar company and two Type 92 infantry guns in an infantry artillery platoon.
In terms of firepower, it had already caught up with an infantry brigade of the Japanese army.
This was something he couldn't have imagined before. However, after the establishment of the arsenal, Wang Ping, who was beside him, made his dream a reality.
Therefore, whether it is an order of the military region or for the sake of its own guard regiment, the arsenal must not be taken down by devils!
