More than a dozen soldiers who reached the last carriage threw grenades at the same time.
Before the first round of grenades exploded, the second round of grenades was thrown out immediately.
After a while, more than a hundred Japanese soldiers in two carriages were blown up completely, without even a bullet being fired in the whole process.
Covered by the huge roar and whistle of the train, the explosion that occurred in the carriage did not spread far.
Two minutes later, the train suddenly accelerated, kept moving at a speed of twenty kilometers per hour, and successfully passed the next checkpoint.
The military column at this time was exactly the same as before the attack. It roared past the garrison at the checkpoint, and the Japanese did not notice anything amiss.
After passing the checkpoint, go forward two kilometers and you will see a road parallel to the railway.
Dozens of large vehicles were parked above, and hundreds of soldiers were lying in ambush between the road and the railway.
The fast-moving military train on the railway slowly slowed down and stopped at the closest position to the cart.
Hundreds of soldiers quickly rushed to the military column, picked up the weapons and ammunition in the carriage and moved them to the cart.
In less than twenty minutes, more than fifty large vehicles loaded with weapons and ammunition disappeared from the battlefield. The military train, which had several carriages emptied, was parked quietly on the road, waiting for the arrival of the Japs.
"Rumble..."
The roar of the train spread from far to near, slowly reaching the battlefield.
Dazzling headlights soon appeared at the end of the railway.
An armored train came slowly.
The body has only one section and is powered by diesel. The entire body is covered with steel and is surrounded by shooting holes.
Several shooting holes extend out of long barrels. Once attacked, these machine guns will spray out dense bullets.
There are two artillery pieces mounted on the roof, and the optional turrets mean they can fire at any time to attack sneak attackers.
They had already seen the military column parked on the railway, moving slower and slower, and stopped about a hundred meters away from the military column.
A dozen little devils stepped out of the armored train, holding guns, and rushed towards the military column in a battle formation.
"Boom boom boom..."
Three explosions suddenly sounded at the front of the military locomotive.
In the splashing fire, more than half of the dozen or so Japs were instantly blown over, and the remaining five or six Japs fell down at the same time.
"Baga, it's a mine, there are no enemies around... Everyone, keep moving forward, watch your step..." Captain Cao, the leader of the Japanese army, got up from the ground with an angry look on his face.
Holding the rifle in both hands, he stared carefully at his surroundings and took the lead in walking towards the military column.
All the way up to the front of the car, they didn't encounter a single landmine.
The driver of the military column and his two deputies all fell in the cab.
"No, the military column is under attack. Hurry to the carriage behind..." Commander Cao ordered with a look of shock on his face.
The scene in the carriage was even more tragic.
There was blood everywhere, broken limbs and corpses, and there wasn't even a place to stand.
A Japanese soldier plucked up the courage to walk into the carriage, expecting to find one or two survivors. However, as soon as he walked five steps inside, the explosion sounded again.
The three Japanese who were standing at the door of the carriage and walked in were instantly blown away.
"Bagya Road..."
Captain Cao, the leader of the Japanese army, was about to go crazy.
A combat unit, fifteen soldiers, very few were left without even seeing the opponent's shadow.
He came to China to fight for almost two years, and he has never felt so aggrieved as he does today.
He punched the car hard and ordered with suppressed anger: "Continue the investigation..."
"Be sure to watch your steps, don't get bombed again..."
What is Chief Cao afraid of?
"Rumble..."
A thunderous explosion suddenly sounded in a carriage fifty meters away.
The carriage made of welded iron plates was torn apart instantly.
Orange-red flames soared into the sky and instantly turned into a huge mushroom cloud thirty meters high.
The ground beneath my feet shook twice in the explosion.
Before Chief Cao could react to the explosion, a series of more violent explosions sounded again.
The two carriages before and after the explosion instantly turned into two fireballs.
The materials in the carriage were blown away at the same time, smashing everywhere like flowers. The railway where the military train was located was blown up, and the sleepers were blown away.
"Rumble..."
The military locomotive exploded immediately.
The power of a boiler explosion is no less than several hundred kilograms of explosives.
The huge body was instantly dismembered into parts, and the railway was blown away at the same time, leaving a large crater three meters deep.
The railway tracks were also blown into pieces...
Chief Cao was so frightened that he sat on the ground and did not get up from the ground until the explosion was over.
He instantly turned into a frightened rabbit and ran towards the armored train in a panic.
…………
At the Japanese brigade headquarters in Baoding, Major General Fujita was awakened from his sleep by his subordinates.
Just as he was about to curse someone, he was stopped by the on-duty staff report.
"General, one of our military trains going south was attacked. The entire escorting force was wiped out. All the weapons and ammunition transported on the train were missing. The train was also bombed. The front of the train was scrapped and the railway was bombed. It will take at least two days to repair it."
Major General Fujita's military quality is very high, otherwise he would not have become the brigade commander in the Kwantung Army with strong military strength.
On the day of the meeting, Kawasaki briefly introduced Baoding's special geographical location, and he realized the importance of the southbound transportation line.
Now that the southbound railway line has been bombed and the railway has been interrupted for two days, it will not only affect the transportation of hundreds of wagons of materials, but may also affect the ammunition supply of front-line combat troops.
If an accident occurs because they fail to replenish ammunition in time, they will be the main culprit.
I got up from the bed and rushed to the war room. As I walked, I asked, "Who did it?"
"How much equipment and ammunition were lost in total? Has the railway garrison been notified to repair the railway?"
"Two days is too long to repair. The railway must be repaired in one day."
The staff officer on duty was also shocked by the bad news. Major General Fujita asked twice before he came to his senses.
"Report to the General..."
"The patrol team has not found the culprit yet."
"When the troops arrived on the battlefield, the enemy had already ended the battle and left the battle with the loot."
"The patrol team has limited strength, and it detonated mines and explosives while scouting the military columns, resulting in the loss of a large number of soldiers and making it impossible to track them."
"By the time the main force arrives on the battlefield and pursues them along the ruts, the enemy will have already disappeared."
"The railway garrison has sent people to the battlefield. They estimate the time to be two days. Increasing manpower should save a lot of time."
Major General Fujita was so angry at being reported by his subordinates that his face turned red and his eyes widened. He punched the table in front of him, opened his mouth and began to curse: "A bunch of trash..."
"The railway was bombed, military trains were intercepted, and more than a hundred imperial troops were killed..."
"Such a bad thing happened in the defense zone, and we didn't even know the identity of our opponent. This is simply a shame for the imperial army."
"Check it out for me right away. You must give me a detailed investigation report before dawn, otherwise the relevant person responsible will wait for military justice."
"The railway garrison needs people to give people and equipment to give equipment. The railway must be repaired within a day."
