The four hundred and fortieth chapters begin to attack
The six to seven hundred imperial troops and imperial auxiliary troops beside the chariot all fell to the ground, motionless.
There were also many people who were directly blown into pieces of meat, with broken limbs and internal organs scattered everywhere. It was very bloody.
"Bageyalu, cunning Tubalu, I must catch you and kill you all!"
"Bang bang bang..." As soon as the curse came out, a burst of gunfire rang out from the edge of the forest not far away.
"It must be Tuba Road who detonated the minefield. Inform the cavalry to go up and eliminate them, immediately!" Major General Yoshino ordered with a murderous look on his face.
Not long after, the gunfire stopped, and a cavalry lieutenant rushed over and reported in a serious tone: "General, Tubal Road went into the woods. We were afraid that the Eighth Route Army would ambush in the woods, so we did not pursue it!"
As soon as the cavalry lieutenant finished speaking, the chief of staff said: "General, the losses have been calculated!"
"The tank squadron was completely destroyed. Three of the tanks can still be repaired, but they must be returned to the factory. The infantry lost two more squadrons. A total of 385 imperial soldiers were all smashed into pieces, including the captain of the 5th Infantry Brigade! The Imperial Alliance Army
One battalion was lost, with a total of 338 men, including their regimental commander!"
"Bagya Road, I didn't expect that a minefield would cause us such a big loss! We still underestimated our opponents. The explosion just now must be a meeting gift given to us by the Eighth Route Army Arsenal Guard Corps!" After the anger, Yoshino
The major general calmed down instead.
Staring at the cavalry lieutenant in front of him, he continued to curse: "The cavalry are also cowards. They can't even catch a few Eighth Route Army troops, Baga!"
Seeing that Major General Yoshino was in a much better mood, the chief of staff immediately asked: "General, what should we do next?"
"Keep moving forward. When we reach the Eighth Route Army Arsenal, they will have no place to hide, and they will even take the initiative to stand up and fight us!" Major General Yoshino ordered with a murderous look on his face.
"However, we must be cautious in the next march. The closer we get to the Eighth Route Army Arsenal, the more determined the Eighth Route Army will be to harass and block us. In order to prevent what just happened from happening again, the Engineer Squadron immediately rushed to the forward troops to cooperate with the forward troops.
The troops ensure that there will no longer be Eighth Route Army minefields on the mountain roads!"
Wang Ping, who finally escaped the pursuit of the Japanese army, found himself near the Japanese army again an hour later.
This time the reconnaissance platoon leader ran over directly: "Captain, the Japanese are too vigilant. They not only sent a large number of search teams and cavalry teams to ensure the safety along the mountain road, but also sent engineers to inspect the mountain road to ensure that there are no minefields on the mountain road!"
"What about the remaining tanks and armored vehicles of the Japanese?" Second Battalion Commander Yi Jun immediately asked.
"If we let them go to the arsenal, the Japanese can approach our firepower point under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, and then use explosive packets to blow up our firepower point!"
"Even like when we attacked Taiyuan City, they drove tanks filled with explosives directly into our firepower points and died together! The little devil kills without blinking an eye and can do anything!"
For a time, several pairs of eyes were all focused on Wang Ping.
As long as they can get close to the mountain road, Wang Ping has many ways to deal with the Japanese light tanks, because, in Wang Ping's eyes, as long as he finds a way to deal with this kind of tanks, the light tanks cannot be called tanks at all, they are just a pair of three or four tanks.
A devil's iron coffin.
But the problem now is that Wang Ping can't get close to the mountain road. Facing the Japanese search force with one post every five steps, Wang Ping can't even get close to 100 meters on both sides of the mountain road.
In the end, he could only reply with a helpless look: "The remaining tanks and armored vehicles can only be left to the chief of staff to clean up!"
Seeing the fleeting expressions of worry on many people's faces, Wang Ping continued: "However, I will tell the chief of staff the specific method of attacking tanks and armored vehicles, and I will ensure that it will not affect the chief of staff's ten days of holding the arsenal!"
"Where is Captain Zhou of the air defense company? Come here immediately, take the two platoons in your hands and go back to the arsenal to reinforce the arsenal. Your use in the arsenal is greater than outside. In addition, you must remember the instructions I just gave you!"
The mountain pass that must be passed to enter the arsenal was built by the engineering battalion for several months, and a series of underground defenses were completed a month ago.
Because many of the firepower points are dug out of the mountains and are very strong. Even if the Japanese send out planes, it will be of no use. Unless they blow them up with explosives at the risk of human life, there will be nothing they can do about a few permanent firepower points that are high up.
Chief of Staff Yang Xiong was very confident in this line of defense and planned to hold off the Japanese and puppet troops here for at least five days.
But just over an hour ago, this confidence suddenly disappeared.
The Japanese tank brigade with powerful attack capabilities still had 20 tanks and armored vehicles that had not been destroyed.
Although Captain Zhou of the air defense company repeatedly assured that as long as the Japanese sent out tanks and armored vehicles, the air defense company would definitely knock them down one hundred meters in front of the position and would never let them advance one meter further.
Captain Zhou of the air defense company spoke with confidence, but it did not make Yang Xiong's worries any less.
Those are indestructible tanks and armored vehicles. The reason why the Japanese can be indestructible on the battlefield is because of these tanks.
The security regiment did not have combat anti-aircraft artillery to attack tanks, so how could they beat them down one hundred meters in front of the formation! Could it be possible to use the anti-aircraft machine guns equipped by the anti-aircraft company? Is it possible?
Despite all the worries, the position must still be defended.
In order to avoid accidents, a lot of explosive packages were specially transferred from the arsenal. Once the air defense company failed to deal with the Japanese tanks, they could only rely on explosive packages!
"Chief of Staff, the Japs are coming!" When Yang Xiong was checking one firepower point after another to ensure that there were no blind spots in front of the position, Hong Tao, the battalion commander behind him, spoke.
Through the shooting hole of the bunker, on the mountain road more than 400 meters away, three tanks spitting black smoke came into view one after another.
Behind the tank, a squadron of Japanese soldiers was holding a rifle and a light machine gun, staring at the surroundings very cautiously.
When Yang Xiong saw the Japs, the Japs also saw the obvious signs that Yamaguchi had been transformed.
As a result, the Japs forward stopped immediately.
In less than ten minutes, large groups of Japanese troops began to enter Yang Xiong's field of vision.
The densely packed Japanese and puppet troops, tanks one after another, plus two infantry guns, a dozen mortars, and a large number of light and heavy machine guns, made Yang Xiong frown into a deep frown.
"This is the real forward of the Japs! They will definitely launch a probing attack. Inform the troops and prepare for battle. Without my order, no one can shoot in advance!"
As soon as the order was given, battalion commander Hong Tao's exclamation sounded around him.
"Chief of Staff, the Japanese have begun to attack, and they have also dispatched three tanks!"
If the anti-aircraft company could really kill the Japanese tanks, Yang Xiong would never let his soldiers carry explosive packs to fight for their lives.
Therefore, Wang Ping's gaze shifted directly to Captain Zhou of the air defense company on the other side!
"Chief of Staff, please rest assured. There are three tanks in total. As long as they rush to a hundred meters in front of the formation, I promise to kill them, but I will need to borrow three shooting holes!" the understanding air defense company commander replied with confidence.
"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news!" Yang Xiong ordered with suspicion and expectation.
