Chapter three hundred and fifty seventh attack setback
"Brigade commander, political commissar, deputy chief of staff telegram!" Not long after, Xu Guang, commander of the communications company, rushed over and reported with excitement.
"What did Zeng Quan say?" Cheng Xiao and the political commissar both stared at Xu Guang and asked.
"Deputy Chief of Staff Zeng reported that they will launch an attack on time at ten o'clock tonight. It is estimated that Japanese reinforcements may arrive at the ambush circle in two hours. Deputy Chief of Staff Zeng asked us to prepare for battle!" Xu Guang replied quickly.
"Okay, after waiting for so long, I can finally eat meat!" Cheng Xiao said happily.
Then he began to issue orders: "Political Commissar, there are many new recruits in the army. I suggest that all the personnel in the brigade headquarters be strengthened into two regiments to assist the company commanders and instructors below to control the new recruits! Political Commissar, you go to the second regiment, and I will go to the third regiment. Get a bite
Eat the Japanese reinforcements and let the new recruits in the brigade see their blood!"
"Okay!" The political commissar was an old revolutionary, and he was very aware of the possible accidents that might happen to the new recruits on their first battlefield, so he rushed towards the Second Regiment's position without saying a word.
On a high ground less than one kilometer away from the copper mine, Wang Ping stared at the battlefield with a telescope while issuing combat orders.
"The mountain artillery company set up all the mountain artillery at the reserved position and aimed it at the copper mine! The regiment's mortar company and each battalion's mortar platoon were deployed directly behind the starting position. As long as the Japanese artillery in the mine fired, they would be found immediately
They fight back, kill them!"
"Zeng Quan, you are responsible for commanding the attack. As soon as ten o'clock arrives, launch the attack on time. I will assign three artillery platoons to you to cover the attacking troops!"
Soon, half an hour passed.
Zeng Quan also came to the army's offensive position. When he saw more than thirty demolitioners being pulled out in succession, Zeng Quan decisively ordered: "Demoman, get on the tank and touch it. Try not to alert the Japanese!"
"Others are ready for battle. As soon as the demolitionist is exposed, shoot immediately and cover the demolitionist as they approach the bunker!"
A dozen blasters, working in groups of five, carried heavy earthen tanks made of wooden signs and quilts, and walked step by step toward the bunker forty or fifty meters away.
Because there is no lighting, it will inevitably make some noise when everyone touches it.
Therefore, as soon as the three tanks moved forward less than ten meters, a flare was fired into the sky by the Japanese.
Three indigenous tanks were suddenly exposed in front of three machine gun bunkers. The three machine gun bunkers reacted very quickly and fired six lines of crossfire at the indigenous tanks in an instant. Three heavy machine guns and three light machine guns stared at the three indigenous tanks.
Tanks fight.
To Zeng Quanchang's relief, despite the power of the heavy machine gun bullets, they still could not penetrate the thick, wet quilt on top of the earthen tank.
"The earth tanks are working, keep charging up!" Zeng Quan ordered loudly.
"Machine guns, mortars, fire immediately, cover the tanks approaching the Japanese machine gun bunker!"
"Click, click, click...boom, bang, bang..." The sound of gunfire and artillery immediately sounded on the battlefield. The whizzing bullets hit the stone bunker, and sparks flew everywhere, which was particularly dazzling.
After the artillery shells exploded around the bunker, the fireball with thick smoke instantly enveloped one of the machine gun bunkers.
Despite this, the six light and heavy machine guns in the three machine gun bunkers still fired continuously, spitting tongues of fire at the positions of the three earthen tanks.
The tank is also very powerful, and it can push forward ten meters without any problems despite the bullets.
Just when a smile slowly appeared on Zeng Quan's face, thinking that the victory would belong to him as long as the earth tank advanced another twenty or thirty meters, an accident happened.
"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, boom, boom, boom!" As soon as the screams of artillery shells streaking across the sky reached his ears, seven or eight artillery shells hit the battlefield and exploded.
An earthen tank was blown to pieces on the spot, and several demolition crews hiding behind were blown over in an instant and fell down on the charge road, with no chance of survival.
"Boom, boom, boom!" After the violent explosion started, there was no intention of stopping. It lasted for a full minute, and the fire continued even after all three tanks were destroyed.
At this moment, two artillery batteries under Wang Ping's personal command opened fire.
As soon as the violent explosion sounded in the mine, the shells from the mine disappeared.
"Demolition team, charge forward with three more tanks. The Japanese artillerymen have been killed by the old regiment leader!" Zeng Quan immediately seized the opportunity and ordered.
A dozen soldiers carried the tanks and rushed forward. Not long after, they rushed to a position more than thirty meters away from the Japanese machine gun bunker.
"Fire cover, keep rushing forward, and we'll be done with the enemy bunker twenty meters away!" Zeng Quan shouted loudly, his eyes fixed on the battlefield, fearing that another accident would happen.
"Kill them!" Suddenly, a dozen Japanese soldiers with rifles rushed out of the bunker, as if they were on stimulants, howling and rushing towards the three tanks.
Before the stunned Zeng Quan could react, a dozen Japanese soldiers threw a dozen grenades at the tank.
If you don't stop after throwing one grenade, continue throwing the second grenade.
"Machine gunners, what do you do for food? Kill them immediately!" Zeng Quan shouted loudly.
"Captain, the Japs are hiding behind the machine gun bunker, bullets can't hit them!" a heavy machine gun platoon leader replied anxiously.
"Artillerymen, kill them with cannonballs. Keep an eye on the Japanese bunker. Don't let the Japanese come out again!" Zeng Quan's anger suddenly emerged as he looked at three more tanks that were destroyed in the explosion.
He ordered loudly.
Then he continued to order the first company commander who looked heartbroken next to him: "Reorganize the blasters and continue to attack me. I don't believe it. What new tricks do the Japanese have to stop us?"
Within a few minutes, three tanks appeared in front of the Japanese again, pushing forward with bullets in their arms.
At first, the Japanese wanted to send troops to fight back and blow up these tanks with grenades.
However, no matter how concealed they are, as soon as they show up, bullets and shells will fly towards them.
After more than a dozen people died, the Japanese decisively gave up on this nearly fatal counterattack.
As a result, the earth tank advanced ten meters further than before.
"Continue to attack, attack another fifteen meters, and we will win. Cover with machine guns and don't stop the artillery. There must be no more accidents this time!" Zeng Quan shot two blazing eyes outwards and ordered with a fanatical look on his face.
, as if victory had already come to him again.
"Boom..." Suddenly, an explosion reached Zeng Quan's ears. Immediately afterwards, an earthen tank within the field of vision was blown to pieces by a sudden burst of fireballs. None of the five blasters behind the earthen tank...
Exception, get blown up together!
"What's going on? Why do the Japanese still have cannons!" Zeng Quan shouted loudly with a stunned look on his face.
"Boom..." Before he could finish his words, another explosion reached Zeng Quan's ears.
This time, before Zeng Quan could open his mouth, a voice reached his ears: "Let the remaining blasters retreat immediately, quickly!"
"The shells were fired from the machine gun bunker. The Japanese are equipped with combat artillery! Retreat immediately, no more attacks~"
Wang Ping didn't know when he touched Zeng Quan and ordered with a frown.
"Retreat!" Zeng Quan immediately ordered without hesitation.
"Boom..." But it was still too late. As soon as he said the words, an explosion sounded on the battlefield. The demolition crew and the last earth tank were blown away in the explosion before they had time to retreat!
"Get out!" Zeng Quan slammed his clenched fist on the bullet box in front of him out of anger and cursed loudly!
