A turret that needs to be destroyed by several dozen rounds of 150-mm shells.

Two flamethrowers erupted through the firing holes and the grill was complete.

When Zhang Dabiao and Yao Shangwen rushed over, the flames inside the turret were still burning.

They looked at the gradually charred corpse of the devil on the ground, and their expressions were full of surprise.

"This flamethrower is a bit powerful!"

Zhang Dabiao's tone was emotional.

As early as a year ago, the new regiment was equipped with this flamethrower.

But at that time, most of the devil's turrets and pillboxes were brick and stone structures, and the new regiment at that time was already equipped with 75 mm mountain guns, and the devil's turrets and pillboxes were destroyed after a few shots.

Even if the devil built some reinforced concrete strongholds in the southeast of Jin, they were knocked out by the Bazooka bazooka.

The Bazooka is much more powerful than a 75-mm mountain gun.

Therefore, even if the new regiment is equipped with flamethrowers, there are probably more than 10 of them, they are only used to clean up the battlefield after the shelling.

Not enough attention has been given.

With the thickened bunkers and turrets of the devils right now, the power of the flamethrower is fully revealed.

Of course, the mixed use of heavy artillery high-explosive shells and mortar smoke bombs can greatly reduce casualties, and the commanders of the Eighth Route Army are good at summing up experience in battle.

In this battle, very few bullets were consumed, grenades were almost not consumed, and 5 rounds of 150-mm shells and more than 20 smoke grenades were fired.

"This thing is kind of powerful!"

Staring at the charred corpse of the devil, there was still a little flame burning on it, Yao Shangwen nodded.

The pain of being burned to death by fire is like the soul being burned, and it is not comparable to the pain of being injured by bullets and shells.

However, Yao Shangwen has no sympathy and pity for the little devil, and he must not be merciful when dealing with the little devil.

If it weren't for the cover of the thickened turret, one of his 150-mm high-explosive shells could directly blow a large piece of devils into pieces.

Yao Shangwen smiled again and said, "Now all the little devils have become acquaintances. ”

When Zhang Dabiao heard this, the corners of his mouth suddenly grinned, this metaphor is really vivid, isn't it, the devils are all cooked.

Then, Zhang Dabiao said loudly: "Pass my order, continue to advance, attack the next Japanese fortifications, let's turn all the devils in the pillbox and turret into mature people today!" ”

With the experience of ending the devil and thickening the artillery platoon this time, Zhang Dabiao suddenly had the bottom in his heart.

Flamethrowers plus 150mm howitzers and smoke grenades can't deal with the thickened bunkers and turrets of the devils?

Under Zhang Dabiao's order, the fighters were in high spirits, and the first battalion and heavy artillery battalion continued to advance.

At the same time, Zhang Dabiao reported the experience of attacking the turret to the regiment headquarters.

This combat experience should be popularized as soon as possible, after all, it is not only their unit that attacks the devil's thickened pillboxes and turrets.

Because the thickened bunkers and turrets of the devils are basically built along the road, and there is one every 500 to 800 meters.

But the heavy artillery of the new regiment could only maneuver along the road.

Therefore, small units of troops in each sub-district surrounded most of the thickened pillboxes and artillery towers from the path, and surrounded them without fighting.

Wait for the main forces to hit one by one with flamethrowers and heavy artillery.

The Sword Squadron had already cut off the devil's phone line, and although the devils in the county town would notice the abnormality, they would definitely not know what was going on.

……

Taiyuan.

The headquarters of the First Army.

"General, are you looking for me?"

Kazuki Yamamoto walked into Yoshio Iwamatsu's office and asked with his feet together.

"Yamamoto-kun, are you here?"

Hearing this, Yoshio Iwamatsu raised his head and looked at Kazuki Yamamoto:

"This is a telegram just sent by the ordnance officer of the base camp, the blueprint of your loudspeaker weapon, the ordnance officers attach great importance to it."

"However, it is difficult for ordnance experts to create a weapon out of thin air without a physical reference for a single drawing, which will take at least a few years."

"So the ordnance officer hopes that the First Army can grab one of these weapons from the Eighth Route Army, and it is better to grab a few shells."

"If you can submit weapons and shells, it will take a few months at most for ordnance experts to be able to reproduce them."

In World War II, the Japanese army also developed anti-tank rocket launchers, but that was in the latter part of World War II.

After learning that the German army had tank killers, Japan also requested technical support from Germany through diplomatic channels.

In 1943, German submarines sent drawings and physical objects of the Nightmare bazooka of the RPzb43 tank.

These things made the Japanese army, which was devastated by the tanks of the United States at that time, ecstatic, thinking that in this way they could easily destroy the tanks of the United States.

However, rockets are difficult things to handle, and due to the low level of technology, Japan is unable to produce high-quality rocket propellants, and the thrust of rockets is insufficient, and the hit rate is extremely low.

Kazuki Yamamoto instantly realized: "Your Excellency, General, do you mean to let the special team snatch a weapon and cannonball from the Eighth Route Army?" ”

"That's right!" Iwamatsu Yoshio nodded and said, "This weapon is very strict with the Eighth Route Army, it is extremely difficult to handle, and there is very little information about it, I estimate that the Eighth Route Army is not equipped much, and Li Yunlong's troops are more equipped, if Yamamoto-kun can get the real thing, it will be a great achievement for the empire." ”

"Hey, the Secret Service Team will get the job done!"

Yamamoto Kazuki was slightly happy in his heart, and immediately agreed.

He has long wanted to go out to do a mission, but he has been put by Yoshio Iwamatsu to do security work, how can he make a contribution, and how can he avenge General Yoshio Shinozuka?

Yamamoto Kazuki's eyes flashed, Li Yunlong, right, I'll take your head.

"For this mission, Yamamoto-kun will go to the southeast of Jin, not to the northwest of Jin."

Iwamatsu Yoshio saw what Yamamoto Kazuki was thinking, and then said.

When Yamamoto Kazuki heard this, his face suddenly stiffened slightly:

"General, as you just said, there are not many troops in the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Jin Province equipped with this weapon, and the troops that are equipped with it the most are Li Yunlong's troops."

"The troops who go to the northwest of Jin to attack the Eighth Route are more likely to complete the mission."

"You don't have to go to the northwest of Jin." Iwamatsu Yoshio waved his hand and said, "According to the latest information received, the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Shanxi Province has attacked a stronghold near Xiyang County, which is a reinforced concrete pillbox and artillery tower, and the Eighth Route Army there has used the new weapons you mentioned. ”

When Yamamoto Kazuki heard this, his face couldn't help but sink slightly, it seems that there are not a few troops in the Eighth Route Army equipped with this new weapon.

Judging from the situation of the Eighth Route Army, especially the new regiment, fighting against the Japanese army, this weapon can deal with turrets and pillboxes, tanks, and even infantry, and the power is very huge, causing heavy casualties to the Japanese army.

If the Eighth Route Army is equipped with too many of these weapons, it will be a great threat to the Japanese army.

Iwamatsu Yoshio continued: "I have ordered the defenders of Xiyang County to rebuild their stronghold there, and the materials of the pillboxes and turrets are made of reinforced concrete, and the Eighth Route will definitely attack again!" ”

"General, you mean fishing?"

Kazuki Yamamoto instantly understood Iwamatsu Yoshio's thoughts.

"That's right, you take the special forces there, and when the eight sides attack, they suddenly attack."

"As for Li Yunlong... In two months at most, when the Kwantung Army has its hands freed, it only needs to transfer one or two divisions of the first type to inflict heavy damage or even eliminate Li Yunlong. ”

Iwamatsu Yoshio's eyes flashed slightly, and his tone was murderous.

"Hey!" Yamamoto Kazuki lowered his head and slightly restrained the killing intent towards Li Yunlong in his heart.

The base camp was actually thinking about removing the A Division Regiment to deal with Li Yunlong, but after thinking about it, he was relieved, four imperial major generals and three lieutenant generals died in the hands of Li Yunlong, and the base camp would definitely take tough measures, sooner or later.

For the equipment and combat effectiveness of the A Division, Kazuki Yamamoto is recognized.

Even if Li Yunlong's troops were equipped with advanced foreign weapons and their combat effectiveness was extremely strong, they would never be the opponent of the Imperial Division A, after all, the difference in strength between the two sides was not at the same level.

The Imperial A Division that can be forced to make a move can be regarded as the honor of Li Yunlong and the new regiment.

At this moment, the intelligence staff officer walked in and said to Iwamatsu Yoshio: "Report to the general, I just received top-secret information that the Wei Lihuang Department of the Central Army of China is currently deploying troops and distributing ammunition. ”

"Nani?"

Iwamatsu Yoshio changed slightly, took the telegram from the hand of the intelligence staff officer and read it.

"In addition, the Eighth Route Army has also been active recently, and it seems that there are big moves." The intelligence staff officer said again.

Yoshio Iwamatsu walked quickly to the wall, his gaze first resting on the southeast of Jin, and then looking along the Yellow River in Zhongtiao Mountain in southern Jin.

"What do Wei Lihuang and the Eighth Route Army want to do?" Yoshio Iwamatsu's eyes narrowed slightly.

"General!" The intelligence staff officer said, "From the analysis of the enemy's movements, the Central Army of China is very likely to want to recapture Zhongtiao Mountain, and the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Shanxi Province cooperated, the relationship between the Eighth Route Army and Wei Lihuang has always been good, Wei Lihuang sent a large amount of ammunition to the Eighth Route Army twice before and after, if Wei Lihuang wants to recapture Zhongtiao Mountain, the Eighth Route Army will probably help." ”

"That makes sense!"

Iwamatsu Yoshio nodded, and the Central Army of China recaptured Zhongtiao Mountain, which was of great benefit to the Eighth Route Army.

The Japanese army would have to transfer more troops to attack Nakajo Mountain, and the plan to move south in the future would be blocked.

Kazuki Yamamoto always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't speak, and left the headquarters with the intelligence staff officer.

After that, Iwamatsu Yoshio called the communications staff officer and ordered this information to be sent to the North China Front Headquarters immediately, and at the same time ordered the 33rd Division stationed in Jinnan to prepare for battle.

……

At the same time, the northwest battlefield of Jin.

Because the devil's telephone line was cut off, and the battlefield of the battle was relatively far away from the county seat.

So, the divisional headquarters of the 36th Division did not know what was going on.

"Report to the division commander, all the pillboxes, turrets and communication teams outside the county have lost contact!"

The captain of the communication team, Saburo Mase, hurriedly walked into the division headquarters and said to Jingguan and said.

"Nani?" When Jing Guan heard this, his face changed slightly, "Can't you get through the two telephone lines?" ”

"Hey!"

Saburo Maseko said: "I can't get through, the two telephone lines have been cut, I just asked Anhua County and Ping'an County, and they have also lost contact with the bunkers and turrets outside the county!" ”

Jing Guan said: "Immediately order the gendarmerie of Anhua County and Ping'an County, as well as Heyuan County, to send scouts to find out what happened as soon as possible!" ”

"Hey!" Saburo Mase turned and left.

Looking at Saburo Mase's back, the old devil's face gradually became gloomy, and he smelled an unusual smell.

All the bunkers and turrets outside the three counties lost contact at the same time, which is not good news.

It is very likely that the Eighth Route is a ghost, and it cannot be ruled out that the Eighth Route is attacking the blockade line of the pillboxes and artillery towers.

Jing Guan Qian thought about it, and now more than 100 thickened pillboxes and artillery towers have been repaired, and the Eighth Route came to attack when the thickened pillboxes and artillery towers were just being built, and it could still cause a lot of losses to the Japanese army.

Now, it's just asking for your own suffering.

I don't know that many of my subordinates are about to become mature people, and Jing Guan is quite confident.
