Chapter 360 Transit
With the heavy firepower of the Eighth Route Army soldiers, this thing cannot be defended. The puppet army does not resist so much, and the entire defense system is overwhelmed. There is only one detachment of Japanese supervising the battle. After several casualties, they can only hold on in the remaining bunker and resist.
.
The defense of Xingzhuang is much weaker. There used to be hundreds of Japanese garrison, but now there are only a dozen Japanese in one detachment, which is not the same level at all.
After defeating the puppet troops guarding Xingzhuang, there was basically no defensive force left in Xingzhuang.
No matter how capable the Japs are, there are only a dozen of them, how can they be the opponent of so many of them?
However, sometimes the idea is good, but reality will always slap you hard.
The Japanese were not puppet troops. They did not give up resistance and flee. Even if there were only a dozen of them, they still resisted stubbornly.
The flying bullets were whizzing across the night sky. The dense rain of bullets continued, and it felt like there was a sound of wind above my head.
Sometimes it really wasn't the large number of people that mattered. The enemy just had more bullets and dense rain of bullets. No matter how many people there were, it didn't matter. Seeing the fire holes in the Japanese bunker flickering with flames, Zhang Yunfei felt a little chilled.
Not counting the rifles in the bunker, there was also a crooked machine gun and a 92-heavy machine gun. These devils were really quite extravagant.
They had already captured two heavy machine guns last time, and now they are equipped with one more.
The Japanese's heavy machine guns are not widely available. Generally, a brigade is only equipped with six to eight.
It is conceivable that Xingzhuang is still very important in the minds of the Japanese. It is short of personnel, but it has sufficient firepower.
Although there was cover of darkness and the Japanese machine guns were only firing blindly, several of their attacking troops were killed and not even injured.
The enemy's firepower was too powerful. No matter how many of them there were, they could not get close to the edge of the bunker.
"Machine gun, give me fire suppression, assault team, blow the hell up for me." Qi Dajiu screamed in a loud voice.
"Save it, there aren't enough people to block the holes of the gun. We'll talk about it later when all the firepower is mobilized." Zhang Yunfei angrily stopped Qi Dajiu from immediately launching a strong attack.
Under such circumstances, a forceful attack would probably cost them too many casualties.
But this bunker stands here, and although other lines of defense have been broken through, the firepower covers most of the Xingzhuang stronghold.
Zhang Yunfei still doesn't like the method of attacking bunkers by relying solely on people to get close to them with explosives. This is completely gambling on life, but there is no other good way now.
Zhang Yunfei's method was more simple and direct. To deal with the Japanese who were stubbornly trying to resist, he ordered Li Dayandai's cannon platoon to use full firepower to suppress and attack the Japanese bunkers with crazy firepower.
This kind of fighting method cannot afford to hurt the Eighth Route Army, it is a waste of ammunition, and the effect is extremely poor.
However, Zhang Yunfei didn't care about this. It was much better than risking his life. Such fire suppression would at least minimize the casualties of the assault troops.
Although the ammunition was wasted a bit, it was not completely ineffective. Last time they destroyed the Japanese defenses here.
These current bunkers were all temporarily built in a hurry, and their defense capabilities are naturally sloppy.
No matter how economical the Japanese fortifications are, they can still resist mortars and heavy machine guns, but this is not necessarily the case with the temporary repairs of the bunker fortifications.
The defense level of the Japanese fortifications, which were a bit like tofu, was naturally lowered by another level. Under the intensive firepower and artillery shells of the Eighth Route Army, casualties gradually appeared after the saturation attack.
They couldn't hide in the bunker and counterattack unscrupulously. They had controlled the entire battle situation, but now the last firepower point has been suppressed.
If the bunker cannot carry out sustained fire strikes, then its demise is only a matter of time.
This group of Japanese soldiers were deceived by their own shoddy fortifications, and suffered heavy casualties under the strong firepower of the Eighth Route Army.
But after all, this group of devils have undergone rigorous training, and although the bunker fortifications are a bit shabby, they cannot completely guarantee their life safety.
The Japs did not panic much when they retreated. The Japs' military education was quite successful. Most soldiers and low-level officers felt that dying in battle was an honor.
Naturally, Zhang Yunfei would not be polite to this group of Japanese who refused to bow their heads. Taking advantage of the pouring firepower, soldiers with quick hands and explosives quickly rushed into the blind spot of the Japanese bunker.
There is no important Eighth Route Army. Their firepower to attack the enemy's bunkers is simply to rush into the enemy's artillery fire, which is a life-threatening job.
But this time, because Zhang Yunfei ordered all light and heavy firepower to be suppressed, the Japanese who had been suppressed could not raise their heads, and the counterattack firepower was already very weak.
For the commandos who have been experiencing a hail of bullets, rushing in with such intensity of firepower feels like taking a leisurely stroll.
It was very easy to reach the blind spot under the Japanese bunker, quickly bury the explosive point, and set the fire to detonate.
Amidst the roaring explosions, the annoying counterattack gunfire finally stopped, and the whole world became completely silent.
After eliminating the last remaining Japanese resistance, Zhang Yunfei immediately ordered everyone to quickly clean up the battlefield and prepare for the attack of enemy reinforcements.
What they are playing this time is a time difference. Whether they can quickly eliminate the enemies in Xingzhuang is only the first step in their battle.
Next, they will face the biggest test. The Japanese reinforcements will arrive soon. After all, the Japanese troops are still within one county, so the reinforcements will not be too slow.
Zhang Yunfei did not expect Tiedan and the others to stop the enemy. Their task was only to delay the enemy's reinforcements for a period of time.
Zhang Yunfei also repeatedly asked them not to fight head-on with the enemy head-on, so their main force was always ready to engage with enemy reinforcements.
This time they captured Xingzhuang, and what they seized was no less than last time. Many of the materials resupplied by the Japanese this time were still in the warehouse without being used, which suddenly gave Zhang Yunfei and others an advantage.
As long as it does not affect the mobility of the troops, they can take whatever they can. Under Zhang Yunfei's orders, the Eighth Route Army, which has been accustomed to suffering, will not be polite.
Like a hungry wolf seeing a fat sheep, like the strong wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, nothing is left, everything is taken away.
After all, no matter how much supplies this stronghold has, it is only prepared for more than a hundred people, but there are more than a thousand of them. With more people, the carrying capacity will naturally be stronger. It is not as clean as locusts crossing the border.
What left Zhang Yunfei speechless was that Qi Dajiu didn't know how to carry an iron pipe out from all directions, and Lao Wang went even further, using a jumper. He was no different from the old farmer who carried the burden. Well, he didn't know them either.
What do you think?
Fortunately, Lao Chen didn't bring a rake or anything, otherwise it would have been ugly.
"Old He, what are you doing with a broom?" He already felt that these people were embarrassed enough, but he didn't expect that his own instructor would go further.
Qi Dajiu picked up an iron pipe, because the Eighth Road was short of iron, but Lao Wang and the others were used to living a hard life, and it was normal for them to be reluctant to part with bottles and cans, but what are you doing with a broom!
