123, here it is! Here it comes! Dirt Eight Road is coming!
"Request urgent tactical guidance!"
"Request urgent tactical guidance!"
Nanbu Sojiro panicked.
He is the captain of the garrison at the Van Trang railway station. The rank of Nakasa.
All three turrets to the west of the station were destroyed. The attacking Japanese army was completely annihilated. Let the south be highly nervous.
What does this mean?
It means that the dirt eight roads that come to attack are violent! Will take the train station at any time!
It's definitely not your average dirt road!
It was definitely the strongest Eight Roads that the Japanese army encountered.
In an hour, you can eat three squadrons of Japanese invaders!
The other side also has field artillery!
Not an infantry gun! It's a field gun! It is a field artillery with extremely strong attack ability! Can easily destroy fortifications!
The two fortified turrets in the back were both destroyed by field artillery.
Even the turrets can't block it, what's the use of the station's fortifications? Isn't it blown up with a single shot?
However......
The phone is no longer available.
The phone line was blown up. The radio station was also blown up.
The shells of the Dirt Eight Road are too dense. The Japanese army, which was caught off guard, suffered a big loss at the beginning.
Frankly speaking, the Japanese army was a bit arrogant.
They felt that Tubalu had no ability to attack fortifications at all.
Protected by three sturdy turrets, the Van Trang railway station is impregnable.
I didn't expect ......
The artillery fire of the Dirt Eight Road will be so fierce!
"Boom ......"
"Boom ......"
A large number of shells also fell.
But it was the mortars of the Yannan detachment and the independent regiment that began to bombard the station again.
According to Zhang Chu's request, no matter where the bombing goes, as long as it bombs the station. Shells or something, Zhang Chu is responsible for supplying.
The shelling is cool for a while, and the shelling is always cool.
It's just that the consumption of shells is a little fast.
Mortars consume ammunition at an extremely fast rate. Because its chamber does not heat up easily.
Basically, about 10 rounds a minute, you can shoot continuously. If it really doesn't work, just rest for a few minutes and then continue playing.
In a matter of minutes, a few hundred shells were gone.
If the boss, brigade commander, and Li Yunlong see it, they will definitely scold the loser!
How can there be such a waste of ammunition?
But Zhang Chu didn't think it was a problem.
Ammunition is really there!
A Japanese commander knife can disassemble 20,000 shells.
This decomposition is definitely a bug, but the system doesn't seem to have any intention of correcting it. Therefore, Zhang Chu also made full use of it.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
A huge foam box falls.
It was filled with all kinds of shells. Separate it with cotton wool to absorb shocks. There are 200 rounds in one box.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Another huge foam box fell.
There were also 200 shells inside. There is also a large amount of snow-white cotton wool.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
The boxes fell continuously.
Shells can be used. Cotton wool can also be used.
Just then, twilight was falling. The already cold day is getting colder.
The warriors stuffed cotton wool into their thin cotton clothes, just enough to keep out the cold.
"Whew!"
"Bang!"
Drop ten drop boxes in a row.
A total of 2000 shells were delivered.
Although this airdrop method is very crude and unreasonable. But it's really fast.
When there is an urgent need, it is definitely the first choice.
Suddenly I felt a little sleepy.
But recently, I haven't had a good rest.
When the battle unfolded, it could barely hold on. Now that the battle is over, I suddenly feel that the predicament continues.
Looking at other people, it's basically the same. After a long march, they fought continuously, and they were very sleepy.
This is even more true of the Yannan detachment.
They ran farther. Soldiers are more tired.
"Let's take a break!" Zhang Chu said.
"No, I can't. The station must be taken in one go. Zhou Cang objected.
After a pause, he said again: "Otherwise, Japanese reinforcements will arrive." ”
"Then let the Japanese reinforcements arrive." Zhang Chu thought for a while, "Let's evacuate temporarily." Find a place to rest for the night. ”
"What? A night's rest? Zhou Cang was stunned.
"It was getting dark soon. The fighters were tired. Need to take a break. Especially your troops. ”
"We ......"
Zhou Cang wanted to speak and stopped.
As a result, I happened to see a warrior walking and walking, and suddenly fell.
But I'm tired. I fell asleep while walking.
Luckily, there is still breathing.
"Okay......"
Zhou Cang sighed helplessly.
They traveled all the way south, and they were indeed exhausted.
His own eyes were bloodshot.
Now that night is falling, everyone's sleepiness has come up. If you don't rest, you probably won't last long.
Zhou Cang: "Where are we going to rest?" ”
Shen Quan: "There is a Xinzhuang nearby. Let's go to Xinzhuang! ”
Zhang Chu: "Xinzhuang? ”
Footage of the battle flashed through my mind.
It seems that two years later, the Japanese invaders swept away, and the independent regiment was surrounded in Xinzhuang.
Li Yunlong was sick and swayed. Wang Xikui sacrificed. Sun Desheng sacrificed. In the end, Li Yunlong defeated Zhao Jiayu. Married to Yang Xiuqin. Triggering the Battle of Pyonggrad and other ......
"Good!"
"We're temporarily retreating to Xinzhuang."
Zhang Chu nodded.
Troops were immediately deployed.
Evacuate soon.
Night falls. The Japanese were completely unaware.
The battlefield gradually fell silent.
The more Nanbu Sojiro thought about it, the more bad it became. This is the calm before the storm!
He involuntarily took out his saber, as well as a handful of intercourse, and prepared to cut his stomach. His hands were stained with the blood of the Chinese, and if he fell into the hands of Tu Balu, it was definitely better to live than to die.
But, strangely, there is no sound of gunfire?
An hour......
Two hours......
The darkness completely covered the land. It was pitch black. I almost couldn't see my fingers.
It's still silent.
All the Japanese were also nervous and broke out in a cold sweat.
However, the Tsuchihachi Road did not attack. The wilderness outside was quiet and terrifying. It seems that there are countless monsters lurking.
Nanbu Sojiro felt his back cold.
Three hours......
Four hours......
Dead. There are no insect chirps. There was no sound. Not even the wind.
The Japanese were so nervous that they could barely breathe.
They all know very well that Tsuchihachi is the best at night fighting. They're going to make a night attack.
Once the battle starts, it's going to be life or death.
However......
In the second half of the night, there was still no movement on Tuba Road.
In the darkness before dawn, Nanbu Sojiro finally regained a little bit of spirit.
Could it be that the earth has retreated?
Sojiro Nanbu couldn't believe his luck.
The dirt road is menacing, and he runs away after the fight?
Don't want to continue attacking the station?
"Report!"
"Someone from the west shows up!"
Suddenly, a nervous communications soldier came to report.
Nanfang was suddenly full of excitement.
It's coming, it's coming!
Dirt Eight Road is coming!
It's around five o'clock in the morning, and it's the darkest time!
The dirt eight roads were carefully chosen to launch a raid at this time!
"Fire!"
"Fire!"
The south madly ordered.
He's going to strike first.
He's going to blow up the dirt eight roads first.
All grenadiers were ordered to fire.
The garrison did not have infantry artillery. But there are a lot of grenadiers.
Nervous, almost suffocating, the Japanese frantically threw the grenade. All are maximum range.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
To the west of the train station, the night sky was reddened by firelight.
Nanbu Sojiro secretly rejoiced. This time, he finally pulled one back.
In the firelight, people were constantly blown up.
Good! Damn dirt hachiro!
This has to be the end!
As everyone knows, coming from the west is actually a brigade of the Kasawara Wing.
Kasawara Koizumi found that Tsuchihachi had bypassed him and set off for his rear, but he was never at ease. So a brigade was dispatched to protect the safety of his rear.
The brigade hurried to the train station.
Who knows, in the dark, it was actually attacked by the "enemy".
A grenade came down, and dozens of casualties were instantly.
"Yaga!"
"My own people!"
"My own people!"
Captain Kurokawa Shaosa was very angry.
Are the Japanese troops stationed at the train station crazy? Shoot yourself!
Hurriedly sent someone up to make contact.
Outcome......
"Boom, boom, boom......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The grenadiers continued to bombard indiscriminately.
Accidentally, the Kurokawa brigade was killed and injured dozens of people.
"Yaga!"
"I want you to apologize!"
Kurokawa was furious.
Immediately send a telegram to the higher authorities to complain.
Kasawara Koizumi hurriedly contacted the railway garrison headquarters......
In the end, I found out that it was a misunderstanding.
"Yaga!"
"You're dead, you're dead!"
Kurokawa angrily rushed into the train station. I want to settle accounts with Sojiro Nanbu.
But Nanbu Sojiro is also holding back the fire!
Who told you to come without saying hello?
The darkness before dawn is the time when Tsuchihachi is best at launching raids! How can I think it's my own?
If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for finding death!
I'm almost going to pee my pants in a panic, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet!
In the end, the two quarreled and broke up.
Kurokawa Shaosa was furious and was about to leave the train station with his troops.
I don't want to stay in this place.
Nanbu Sojiro didn't keep either. I wish the other party would get out of the house sooner.
You almost scared me to death just now. I won't even give you a fart! Get out of here! The farther you roll, the better.
The two commanders were so furious that the soldiers below almost fought.
Fortunately, at this time, Shigezo Harata arrived. Two garrison brigades were also brought. There were more than 800 people each.
Because it's a garrison. Not equipped with heavy weapons. Therefore, the number of people in each garrison brigade should be smaller.
A field brigade like Kurokawa has a full strength of about 1,100 people. However, after being hit by the Tsuchihachi Road before, Kurokawa's brigade was only more than 700 people.
"Nanfang-kun, Kurokawa-kun, the top priority is to eliminate the Dirt Eight Road!"
"The Imperial warriors are all jade shattered on the frontline battlefield!"
Shigezo Habata said slowly.
Sojiro Nanbu and Kurokawa Shaosa calmed down at this time.
Oh yes, it's useless to argue.
It is important to destroy the dirt eight roads.
In the misunderstanding just now, the Kurokawa brigade suffered hundreds of casualties.
If they didn't hurry up and sweep the Dirt Eight Road, and count these casualties on the head of the Dirt Eight Road, neither of them would be able to explain.
In case the superiors thoroughly investigate, both of them have the possibility of apologies by disembowelment.
Shigezo Harata is saving them.
So they looked at each other stupidly. It was decided to cooperate for the time being.
Shigezo Habata nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, his own prestige is so-so. The military rank is also not high.
However, he had an older brother who was a lieutenant general. It's Shigeichi Hatada. Two years ago, he took the Botian detachment and went all the way to Wuhan.
At present, Shigeichi Harata is the commander of the 19th Division, and he is in a high position. Others more or less give face.
"We have to take the initiative!"
The strong Hakata Shigezo was ambitious.
Who said that the garrison can't make a difference? Now is the perfect opportunity.
With two brigades by himself, plus a brigade of the Kasawara Wing, with a force of more than 2,000 people, he can definitely beat the Tsuchihachi Road.
Kurokawa has no objection to this.
He didn't want to sit still, either.
It is also a good thing to take the initiative to attack and eliminate the earth eight roads.
The key is to count all the previous casualties on the head of Tubalu. You can avoid the possibility of being seppuku.
One field brigade, plus two garrison brigades, should be able to win.
For the sake of safety, Shigezo Harata came with infantry artillery. There are quite a few of them, a full eight.
Because it is a railway garrison, there are some powers of "temporary requisition".
Military supplies stored at various railway stations can be activated when necessary. So Hatada brought eight infantry guns.
You have a cannon on the dirt road, don't you?
I have it too!
I have more infantry guns!
"Gentlemen, work hard!"
"His Majesty the Emperor is onboard!"
Habata Shigezo decided to set out after dawn and sweep westward, destroying the Dirt Eight Road in one fell swoop.
