Chapter 76: If you want to pick it up, pick up the tank
After finishing the task of bringing back the prisoners of war, Zhang Sixing began to lead people to conduct a comprehensive cleanup of the battlefield.
This matter must be done quickly. After all, when Japan comes to its senses and once again presses the border with heavy troops, it will not be easy to obtain some supplies.
"It's right here, dig quickly."
With the teenagers from the military camp, Zhang Sixing came to the three buildings that he had destroyed with directional blasting.
The three buildings were really built down, and most of the pheasant necks and crooked handles were smashed, but the teenagers and Lu Feizhang's men still tried their best to pick them back.
In addition, Zhang Sixing's biggest gain was another dozen sniper rifles. Some of the guns were unfortunately smashed. As long as the sights were not broken, Zhang Sixing dismantled them all.
But then he threw the rifle aside.
Undoubtedly, in the eyes of Lu Feizhang's subordinates, who were always short of food and ammunition, and the young men in the mixed barracks, this was called a prodigal.
Just like if you only smashed the butt of the gun, you can't give other gun accessories when you go back, or it's not difficult to just find a piece of wood to make a wooden gun body.
As long as the work can be done by hand, it is not difficult for these hard-working guys.
But soon, under the leadership of the "ghost" Yamaoka Tetsujiro, they found an important treasure.
"Here, this is the artillery position. My subordinates helped them set it up at that time."
With the efforts of the teenagers who packed the equipment, all eight cannons were soon found.
Unfortunately, after inspection, only two infantry guns and two long-barreled 37mm anti-tank guns were found. As for the other guns, all the other guns were damaged when the building collapsed.
"Well, whether it's infantry artillery or not, at least the shells are universal. Dig and find all the shells for me. Any shells are good."
Following Zhang Sixing's order, more artillery shells were found.
In the spirit of economy, hundreds of people quickly cleared out a large number of usable grenades, cannons, shells, and bullets from the ruins. They loaded them on the two artillery carriages that Zhang Sihang had brought back the night before.
As long as Yamaoka Tetsujiro is found, Zaobingying and Lu Feizhang's men can dig out the things. Not only can they dig them out, but they can also take them back to the Sihang Warehouse at an extremely fast speed.
However, no matter how many guns and ammunition he obtained, Zhang Sixing still felt that he was not prepared enough.
Today the Japanese Marine Corps mobilized three brigades to launch an attack. What about tomorrow?
The Japanese suffered a loss today. They saw many new things, and they will be prepared for tomorrow.
Judging from today's situation, I am afraid that the scale of the attack tomorrow will be larger, the number of people will be greater, and the firepower will be...
No, there will not be a large-scale increase in firepower, especially heavy artillery. After all, the Japanese do not want to fall out with Britain and France.
Soon Zhang Sixing, along with Captain Tao and his men, quietly came to the vicinity of the two Japanese tanks that had been stopped in the morning.
"Sir, this is a Japanese Type 89 medium tank, not a Doudin..."
Someone pointed out the mistake to Zhang Sixing,
"This is actually a medium tank."
Looking at Zhang Sixing, who could touch the "medium tank" on the top of the turret by stretching out his arm, he felt dumbfounded.
How does this compare with German tanks? Although Germany is still playing with the No. 2 tank, as the major shareholder of Krupp, he knows that there are already drawings for the No. 3 and No. 4 tanks.
In the future, hordes of armored troops with tigers and leopards will be compared with the Japanese Type 89 tanks.
It seems like you have to tell the police uncle that this little Luo Li with no breasts and butt in front of you is already eighteen years old. That's nonsense.
"This way I go in and put it into neutral, and you organize people to use ropes to drag it back to me."
Captain Tao has been fighting for so many years, and he has never seen a more greedy officer than Zhang Sixing. Just like this tank, it was all damaged...
Just at this moment, a group of young men from the military camp ran over quickly.
"Sir Zhang, bring me the rope, it's so thick..."
Lu Feizhang and his group were following behind. He smacked his lips as he looked at the tank.
"Good fellow, we are trying to get this iron bastard back to us. It weighs ten thousand pounds. Who the hell can drag it?"
Lu Feizhang flew up and kicked the soldier who said strange things in the butt, and scolded him impatiently,
"I don't know how to obey orders and follow instructions. How come there are so many weird words."
He had experienced the hardships of this thing. When Xie Jinyuan encircled and suppressed them earlier, there were tanks to cooperate. Even though Lu Feizhang's legs and feet were fast enough, he was chased by tanks.
"Well, tie the rope."
Company Commander Tao responded with a neutral tone. He didn't have a good impression of Lu Feizhang.
As a former opponent on the battlefield, he suffered a lot at the opponent's hands. Moreover, in order to protect the prisoners of war, he dared to conflict with Zhang Sixing.
I really want to have the chance to kill this guy.
But Zhang Sixing actually started the tank at this time. After all, he always aimed at people when he hit. As long as he didn't hit the action mechanism, the tank should not be damaged.
"boom"
The roar of the tank startled the people outside the vehicle who were trying to drag them back with ropes. Zhang Sixing happily stuck his head out from the tank and said loudly amidst the noisy tank engine,
"Get out of the way and I'll drive it back for us."
No one doubted this, but then the roar of the tank engine became smaller, and then Zhang Sixing came out again and said,
"Don't rush back. I'm going to see if the tank can start. If it can, forget it. If not, the tank will have to be towed back."
After saying that, he jumped off the tank and ran towards the other one.
"Has he always been like this?"
Hearing what Lu Feizhang said, Captain Tao lowered his face and reprimanded,
"What do you call him, sir? He is so uneducated."
Being scolded like this by someone who was once his enemy, Lu Feizhang felt a little embarrassed. After all, he couldn't accept that someone who was his enemy less than a year ago was asked to be his commander.
Just like you can't accept taking off the octagonal hat and taking off the red star, you really can't accept it emotionally for a while.
"boom"
The other tank also started up. Not only did it spread out like this, it also turned on its lights generously. It even drove the tank up to those who were packing up the "Yang Luo" and loading it onto the carriage and shouted something.
"We are mechanized. Once the horse is unharnessed, I will make a few trips for us and we will be done."
With the help of mechanization, the rest is much simpler.
Hansen Raul once knew how to drive a car and a tractor. After Zhang Sixing gave him some advice, he became the tank driver of another tank.
With the two fully loaded carriages moving, the battlefield was cleared much faster.
People who had been preparing to work all night looked at the rapidly decreasing equipment on the battlefield and couldn't help but be full of hope that they could sleep for a few hours tonight.
After hauling supplies again, Zhang Sixing looked with satisfaction at the battlefield with few people left outside the building. He was completely relieved.
With the addition of these shells and weapons, I believe the Japanese Marine Corps will have enough to drink from it tomorrow.
What he never expected was that the lights on the other side of the Suzhou River suddenly went out.
Zhang Sixing, who had never seen this scene in a movie, didn't understand whether the situation in front of him was normal.
But it doesn't matter, unless the international situation changes, the Japanese will not cause any trouble to the concession.
However, what he never expected was that while the Japanese were not in trouble, he would soon be in serious trouble.
