Chapter 500 Naotomi Hattori: Eight Ga? Why is my every move under the control of Wang Chengzhu?
Although the actions of the 9th Japanese Infantry Brigade were extremely covert, they still could not escape Wang Chengzhu's eyes due to the large number of people and the darkness.
Especially the train parked next to the platform was so eye-catching that it was difficult not to notice it.
On the hillside outside the city.
Xu Hailang put down the telescope in his hand and asked Wang Chengzhu for instructions: "Captain, these Japs really have a good idea. They actually want to break out of the encirclement by train. What should we do now? Should we order the armored train to open fire immediately? Directly
Kill this train and eliminate their way to break out?"
Wang Chengzhu waved his hand and said: "No, now is not the time. Although there are not many people around the train station, if we open fire now, at most we will only severely damage the Japanese in the city, but it will be difficult to annihilate them all."
"Once the train is lost, the Japanese in the city will definitely rely on the barricades to resist desperately. By then, although we can still annihilate them all, it will cause a lot of trouble and greatly increase our casualties. The gain will not be worth the loss."
"So, let's let the Japs out of the city first, and then take action outside the city. By then, even if these Japs realize something is wrong, it will be impossible to escape back into the city!"
After saying this, Wang Chengzhu's voice dropped, and he continued: "Give me the order, and all battalions will immediately prepare for battle. After leading the Japanese out of the city, the first and second battalions will engage the enemy from the front, and the third battalion will outflank them from the left.
The fourth battalion surrounded us from the right and cut off the Japanese's return to the city."
"The rest of the battalions serve as reserves and take action at the right time!"
"In addition, order Langya to prepare for battle. They will fire the first shot to encircle and annihilate the Japanese breakout force. Once all the Japanese soldiers leave the city, they will immediately open up all firepower!"
"yes!"
Xu Hailang agreed with a bang, then turned around and left to deliver the order in person.
…
Under Hattori Naoomi's order, the Japanese moved very quickly, and soon they climbed onto the train one after another.
This is a passenger train with a total length of 13 cars, which can fully load all the more than 1,500 people of the remaining 9th Brigade.
However, Naoomi Hattori did not let everyone climb on the train. Instead, he made two preparations and left about half of his troops to break out of the city along the road with the remaining tank and two armored vehicles.
In this way, even if the train is bombarded by an armored train, they will still be able to fight without directly disrupting their position.
Hattori Naoomi also knew that the target of the train was too big and would definitely become the primary target of attack by the Eighth Route Army. Therefore, he did not take the train, but sat in a three-wheeled carriage and followed the large troops towards the city.
Rushed out.
Everything seemed to be going according to Naoomi Hattori's plan. They easily broke out of the city along the railway crossing without encountering even the slightest obstruction from the Eighth Route Army.
It went so smoothly that Naoomi Hattori felt a little uneasy!
Sure enough, just after they moved forward for about a kilometer, an armored train consisting of 8 carriages suddenly appeared in their field of vision, as well as in the field of vision of Hattori Naoomi and Yasuda Makoto.
among.
Seeing this armored train, the commander of the Japanese train immediately pulled the brakes.
Almost as soon as the train stopped, the Japanese soldiers on board opened the door, swarmed out of the carriage, and rushed towards the armored train ahead.
Because the mission given to them by the brigade commander Naoomi Hattori was to kill the armored train intercepted by the Eighth Route Army.
The reason why I took the train to break out was not only to get out of the city quickly, but also to get close to the armored train quickly.
It was obviously impossible to rely solely on infantry to attack the armored train. Therefore, the Japanese armored soldiers also immediately controlled the remaining tank and two armored vehicles, turned the turret, and aimed at the armored train.
However, Langya's speed was obviously faster. Before the Japanese armored soldiers could take aim, the two 75mm-caliber dual-purpose artillery guns on the armored train had already pointed towards the sky and slowly lowered their barrels.
The other two 105mm caliber howitzers increased their firing angle.
At this time, the distance between the enemy and ourselves is less than two kilometers. Therefore, if the howitzer wants to hit the target at close range, it must increase the firing angle.
"Baga!"
Seeing this, Hattori Naoomi didn't know that the Eighth Route Army's armored train seemed to be waiting for them here.
All his actions seem to be under the control of the other party.
A feeling of helpless frustration suddenly surged into Hattori Naoomi's heart, and he just cursed angrily.
The next moment, the old devil saw the muzzles of the four cannons suddenly flashing red light.
About three or four seconds later, four violent explosions reached Hattori Naoomi's ears one after another. The only two Type 95 armored vehicles and a Type 97 light tank remaining in the armored vehicle squadron instantly turned into 4
A dazzling red light.
That's right, it's 4 dazzling red lights.
Because operating a howitzer to attack an armored vehicle on the ground is far more difficult than operating a flat-firing cannon, the targets of the two 105mm-caliber howitzers were both the Type 97 light tank.
As for the two 75mm caliber high-level dual-purpose cannons, one can attack a Type 95 armored vehicle.
Now it seems that Wang Chengzhu's worries were completely unnecessary, because with the assistance of the artillery scope, the two howitzers accurately hit the Type 97 light tank.
Faced with attacks from 105mm caliber howitzers and 75mm caliber cannons, the Japanese's thin-skinned tanks and thin-skinned armored vehicles were actually no different from those made of plastic. They were easily torn apart almost instantly, and the broken tank parts were swept away along with it.
The shock wave of the explosion was scattered everywhere.
Of course, the Japanese tank soldiers in the cabin were also torn apart.
The Japanese infantrymen who followed up with tanks and armored vehicles were not spared. They were blown away by the blast wave and died before they even landed.
Immediately afterwards, the other artillery mounted on the armored train also opened fire. At this time, there was no need for the assistance of the artillery scope, just open it and blast.
All sharpshooters are fed by bullets, so why aren't sharpshooters fed by cannonballs?
In the previous training, Langya's team members have basically become expert gunners and can skillfully operate various artillery pieces.
After last night's continuous battle, the Wolf Fang team members have become proficient in manipulating the artillery mounted on the armored train, and can hit targets within sight wherever they point.
"Boom!"
"Boom! Boom, boom! -"
The grenades fell to the ground one after another and exploded. While huge craters were blown up on the ground, the Japanese soldiers near the impact point were also directly thrown away.
Before many Japanese soldiers even landed, their bodies had been dismembered in the air, and their bloody limbs and broken arms were scattered everywhere...
