Chapter 296 (Two Shifts in One) A small test of the knife, all the brigades were annihilated
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The Japanese soldiers, who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, also set up machine guns and prepared to shoot, but Yuan Li and the others were not polite, and directly fired two shots into the soul, and in an instant, sandbags and dirt were blown up into the sky.
How could this small sentry stand up to the blows of two 37 guns, and the wreckage of several little devil corpses was accompanied by the dust flying everywhere.
Jun Cao hurriedly withdrew the surviving soldiers down the mountain, relying on these few people in his hands to dare to face the armored troops.
Ten armoured vehicles stood up with their guns upright and continued to move forward at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, rounding the small hill and suddenly facing a flat open field.
And 600 meters behind them, 20 armored transporters and a battalion of infantry followed.
Yuan Li frowned, staring at the crowded Japanese position not far away, and immediately pressed the intercom button: "Deputy Commander Hong, 200 meters away from the little devil's position, we have to speed up, the infantry must keep up!" โ
"Roger! Roger that! โ
After saying that, Hong Mu put down the machine, and hurriedly stood on the car and instructed the soldiers: "Everyone run, follow behind the armored car, hurry up!" โ
โฆโฆ
"Get into the line!"
"Ha Pressure Library! Get moving......"
"The anti-aircraft artillery is ready!"
The shouts on the Japanese position continued, and the little devils hurriedly entered the post after receiving the signal, and although they panicked for a short time, they reacted quickly under the command of their respective commanders.
The defenders of the entire Mangshi have a full brigade of 1,000 people, except for the strongholds along the road, most of the little devils' troops are concentrated on the periphery of the town.
It's just that when they saw dozens of armored vehicles coming towards them, all the Japanese soldiers chuckled in their hearts, what the hell is this? When did the Huaxia people have so many armored troops?
However, no one gave them an answer, and the 10 armored vehicles at the head of the platoon completed the formation of the platoon and rushed towards the enemy in two sagittal formations at full speed.
"Fire!"
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Boom ......"
The shells exploded on the Japanese position, dust flew all over the sky, and the smoke of gunpowder instantly blocked the view, and the salvo of ten 37mm anti-tank guns blew up the little devils in front.
"Shoot back!"
"Dada......"
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The Japanese immediately launched a counterattack, the various machine-gun fire points opened fire desperately, and the grenadiers were not to be outdone, firing grenades.
The dense bullets hit the body of the SDKFZ251 armored vehicle and only splashed countless sparks, and the soldiers inside were not affected in the slightest, and even the shrapnel that exploded could not kill them.
The bulletproof grille outside the windshield rang non-stop, Yuan Li hurriedly grabbed the machine and shouted hoarsely: "Aim at those fire points and continue to fire to suppress them!" โ
"Click!"
There were three soldiers operating the cannon in the artillery station behind the car, and the main gunner took a rough aim and pushed the shell into the chamber.
"Put!"
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! "The little devil's position once again rained bullets.
"Quick! Cannonball! โ
"Click!"
The main gunner quickly opened the chamber and withdrew the shell, and the deputy hurriedly handed over the shell, and without hesitation, reloaded the shell again.
"Put!"
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Boom ......"
The 37mm anti-tank gun was simple to reload and had a relatively fast rate of fire, with a skilled gunner firing almost 15 rounds in a minute.
It's just that the gunners are difficult to aim on the moving chariot, but they are numerically superior and don't need to shoot too accurately, as long as the fire is covered.
After the first few rounds of strikes, holes began to appear in the Japanese forward positions, and Yuan Li's vanguard was about to rush into the trenches.
"Whew...... Boom! โ
A battle defense gun hit one of the armored vehicles, and it was obvious that the 15mm thick frontal armor could not withstand the blow of the battle defense guns, and the armored car was directly bombarded into a fireball.
Another shell struck, this time the Japanese accurately hit the battery of another armored car, and the fire caused the explosion of ammunition in the warehouse, and with several violent explosions, the armored car instantly turned into a pile of scrap metal, and the soldiers inside were even more shattered...
"! All vehicles spread out! Give oil to oil and rush in! โ
Yuan Li shouted loudly at the top of his voice, and the remaining 8 armored vehicles quickly adjusted their formation, increased the accelerator and ran over the little devil on the position.
Squeak squeak......
"Escape!"
"Ahh Help me..."
The crawlers grinded a screeching sound on the ground, and the little devils who could still move hurriedly evacuated backwards, while the Japanese who were injured and could not move could only lie on the ground and wail.
The armored convoy would not be polite to them, regardless of whether he was a corpse or a living person, and pressed over in one fell swoop, crushing these island monkeys who did all kinds of evil things into pulp.
Seeing that the position was about to be lost, the Japanese commander immediately ordered the soldiers to rush towards the tanks with explosives bags in an attempt to destroy the armored vehicles with suicide attacks.
"ๆฎบใ! Onboard! โ
"Sneer, sneer......!"
Behind each armored car is also a good MG3 machine gun, and the machine gunner is a strafing shot at these little devils who are rushing at them with teeth and claws.
The fighters in the rear compartment also picked up submachine guns and fired at the enemy through the firing holes in the side armor, and the sudden projectiles beat the little devils to dance on the spot.
A Japanese man was quietly hiding in a trench, the armored vehicle less than 10 meters away from him, and as the vehicle slowly moved forward, it got closer and closer to his hiding place.
Seeing that the distance was almost over, the Japanese soldier decisively pulled the lead, picked up the explosives bag and jumped:
"The sky is falling! โฆโฆ Rumble! โ
The fighters in the armored car did not have time to react at all, and the tracks were blown off by a sudden sneak attack, and the vehicle lay on its stomach.
Seeing that the attack worked, more and more little devils rushed over in the rain of bullets, because they knew that if they didn't stop these armored vehicles, the entire position would be chiseled!
The armored car could not move because of the damage to the tracks, and instantly became the target of the little devil's attack, and the projectiles crackled on the steel plates, suppressing the fighters from daring to fight back.
Then... The little devil threw two smoke-emitting grenades into the open roof of the rear compartment of the armored car.
Rumble! Rumble!
The four shots of shrapnel blew up the fighters inside into a sieve, and the people in the cab were not spared, and were brutally shot by the little devils who climbed on the roof of the car.
"Damn, all the cars are coming closer to me, don't stop, keep rushing!"
Yuan Li seemed to be dripping blood in his heart when he saw this scene, the armored vehicle was still not as good as the tank, and it was too vulnerable to infantry attacks.
Suddenly, there was a riot again in the Japanese defense line, and Hong Mu's second echelon also entered the battlefield, and they rushed into the position of the little devil along the opening opened by Yuan Li.
Machine guns on armored vehicles shoot fiery snakes, constantly harvesting the lives of the enemy. The infantry moved forward under the cover of vehicles, and immediately attacked laterally after entering the position, quickly dividing and encircling the enemy.
The fierce battle continued, but the Japanese defense line was broken, and they were simply unable to stop the all-out attack of the infantry coordination, and the Japanese captain had no choice but to order a retreat.
But how could two legs outrun the wheeled half-track chariots, and the 27 armored vehicles did not stop after passing through the positions of the little devils, but continued to move forward, because their goal was the last line of defense outside the town.
The infantry behind them had already held the Japanese in tow, and even if they wanted to retreat to the town, it would be too late to hold on.
More than 20 armored vehicles rushed into the town of Mangshi like a bamboo, and the little devils who stayed here could not stop the assault of the steel torrent at all, so they could only be forced to retreat into the city, and the last line of defense was opened by Yuan Li again.
"Get off! Get out! โ
With a "bang", the tailgate was opened heavily, and the driver immediately beckoned the fighters to get out of the car and prepare for battle.
The 20 armored vehicles that followed behind each of them were full of a squad of soldiers, and when they arrived at the position, they began to "unload" more than 200 soldiers in squads, under the command of their respective squad leaders, and coordinated with the armored vehicles, gradually sweeping towards the city.
"Dada......!"
On a small building around the corner, seven or eight little devils surrounded a Type 92 heavy machine gun and launched a block against the soldiers of the Third Division who were charging below.
"Poof! Poof! โ
"Hide!"
As soon as the warrior came up, the bullet sent the three soldiers who rushed fastest to the ground, and the rest of them quickly hid in the surrounding buildings.
"Monk Zhou, take the two of you to bring the heavy machine gun upstairs to Lao Tzu! Listen to my command for fire cover! The squad leader leaned his back against the corner and gave the order decisively.
"Yes!"
The bullets from top to bottom hit the wall and swished, and the squad leader slightly exposed half of his head, estimating the gap in the opponent's firepower: "One! Two! Three... Beat! โ
"Boom bang ......!"
"Bang bang!"
The soldiers suddenly leaned out and opened fire, and the terrifying barrage covered the fire point like splashing ink, and the two devil machine gunners were instantly beaten into mud.
"Quick, on!"
The soldier named Monk Zhou called two companions and was about to rush forward with a shotgun in hand.
But what people didn't expect was that a fiery snake suddenly erupted from a window house on the second floor of this small building, and there was actually an ambush of a light machine gun there.
"Dada...!"
"Ahh
Two more people fell in a pool of blood, and Monk Zhou rolled on a lazy donkey to escape.
"Momfuck! Monk, are you alright? โ
"No... It's okay, phew... Fortunately, monk, I am blessed with a great life. Monk Zhou leaned against the low wall and replied with palpitations.
The squad leader was anxious, because the machine gun on the roof of the building roared again, forming two crossfires with the light machine gun on the second floor, directly suppressing them in this corner.
Squeak squeak squeak......
At this moment, the sound of tracks running over the road was slowly heard, and an armored car with 37 anti-tank guns drove from behind them.
"yes, how the did I forget about it!" The squad leader slapped his thigh with remorse, why should they use people to explore the road when they have armored vehicles.
After informing the people in the car of the situation, the driver immediately turned around and drove towards the small building.
"Ding, ding, ding!"
The Japanese were still shooting desperately, but the bullets hit the car and left only shallow bullet marks, which could not hurt it at all.
"Yes! Transfer the machine gun, fast! "Under the stunned gaze of the devil Cao Chang, the muzzle of the gun on the armored car slowly lifted upwards...
"Boom!"
Broken bricks and tiles flew all over the sky, and the Type 92 turned into a pile of debris in an instant.
This is not over, the gunner quickly shook the wheel to aim the muzzle of the gun at another fire point on the second floor, without saying a word, another bombardment was carried out, and the seemingly heavy wall was directly blasted into a big gap.
The little devil who was hit did not dare to stay for a moment, and immediately shouted to withdraw from this building.
"Monk Zhou, Li Dagui, go up and get rid of those birds, others block the exit, don't let the little devils run away!"
"Kill!"
The squad leader immediately came to his senses, and rushed to the building with the remaining soldiers, blocking these Japanese soldiers who wanted to escape in the building.
Now this scene is being played out everywhere in the town of Muangshi.
Although the little devils were cowering in the streets and houses, with the assistance of armored vehicles, this assault company of about 200 people ate the four or five hundred little devils in the city to death.
At the same time, the battle on Hong Mu's side was almost over, and the little devil still wanted to resist stubbornly, but the formation that had been rushed by armored vehicles was no longer able to organize an effective counterattack.
After entering the city, Yuan Li divided 15 armored vehicles to reinforce the rear, and under the isolated and two-sided attack, the Japanese army finally could not support it, and many little devils began to withdraw from the battlefield and flee to both sides of the position.
But they forgot that this was flat land, and it was not at all like other places in western Yunnan that had lofty mountains as cover, and if they retreated rashly, they would only be shot from behind by the enemy like rabbits.
"Deputy Commander, the little devil is running away!"
"Run? Can you run away? Run it over Lao Tzu and chase them to the ditch! โ
Hong Mu pinned the pistol back to his waist, picked up the M3 submachine gun on the ground, and rushed out with the people in the lead.
This kid, even if he is now the deputy commander, he can't get rid of the problem of taking the lead in the charge, and his hideous appearance can't wait to pick up the knife and chop these Oriental monkeys alive.
Perhaps it was influenced by Chen Jize, the tradition of the entire Third Regiment was like this, the officers always took the lead in rushing to the front, and the soldiers rushed forward with a roar, which was quite a taste of desperate Sanlang.
โฆโฆ
"Report to the regiment commander, Deputy Hong Regiment sent a message that the first battalion has broken through the enemy's defensive line, and the chariot battalion has also successfully taken Mangshi, and is currently pursuing the remnants of the enemy."
"Deputy Head Hong also said... Please hurry up and bring people to Muangshi, there are a lot of supplies and prisoners of war to deal with... โ
On the command vehicle, the signal corps reported the information sent from the front.
"This stinky boy!" Chen Jize seems to have three black lines on his face, treating me as a cleaner on the battlefield? How did you play so fast?
Chen Jize never expected that he would actually play the role of soy sauce in today's battle, and he didn't catch anything, and the battle was over before the troops arrived on the battlefield.
Under the joint assault of more than 800 soldiers of the first battalion and 30 armored vehicles of the tank battalion, the Japanese army held out for two hours until the whole line collapsed, which cannot but make people sigh at the power of the armored troops.
"Report to the Senate immediately, Mangshi... Knocked down! โ
