"Baga, where is Tubal Road? Where did the Tubal Road we were chasing go?" When the smoke cleared, the Japanese who were lying on the ground quickly got up. When they saw the empty street in front of them, they were shocked and shouted loudly.
"The stronghold, they must be hiding in the stronghold!" A Japanese sergeant warned loudly, pointing to the stronghold and gun towers blocking the street a hundred meters away.
The leader of the Japanese team immediately made a decision, squatted on the ground, slashed forward with his sword and ordered: "Continue to attack and capture the stronghold!"
"Da da da!" Suddenly, a burst of gunfire rang out from the stronghold's gun tower.
Three tongues of flame appeared at the gun tower shooting holes, and dense bullets flew towards the street like rain.
Before the Japanese and puppet troops at the front could react, more than a dozen of them were shot and fell to the ground.
"There are machine guns in the turret. If we attack by force, we will suffer too many casualties. We must use heavy machine guns and mortars to suppress fire." The team leader, who was lying on the ground again, reacted immediately.
Not long after, three heavy machine guns and three mortars were carried over.
"Machine gun fire, artillery fire, kill the Eighth Route Army in the stronghold!" The squadron leader who came over temporarily took over the command, drew his command knife and issued the attack order.
As the squadron leader, he knows the situation on the entire battlefield.
Now, in addition to himself, there is another squadron that has also rushed into Shimiao Town, and is now also attacking the stronghold.
If nothing else goes wrong, the headquarters of the New Regiment and the commander of the New Regiment, who worried the brigade commander, are at the stronghold in front of him. Whoever can take the stronghold first may capture the commander of the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army alive and win this place.
The greatest contribution to the siege of the new regiment, and will also be favored by the brigade commander.
It was for this reason that the squadron leader decided to go into battle himself.
Not only did he bring all the heavy machine guns and mortars that the captain had strengthened for him, but he also brought over another infantry squad, preparing to attack the stronghold in one attack, seize the new regiment headquarters, and capture Wang Ping alive.
"Da da da... boom..." Soon, the small stronghold was enveloped by the sound of gunfire and artillery.
The Japanese in the other direction were not far behind and tried their best to fire bullets and artillery shells at the strongholds in the direction of their attack.
After fighting for five minutes, the stronghold was completely shrouded in thick smoke, and the Japanese attacked.
The puppet soldiers who had always been used as cannon fodder were not taken seriously by the Japanese squadron leader this time.
The merits of capturing the stronghold, capturing the headquarters of the new regiment, and capturing or killing the leader of the new regiment cannot be taken away by the puppet army.
Moreover, after such a fierce artillery attack, the Japanese squadron leader was confident that there were not many Eighth Route Army troops left in the stronghold.
As long as you attack by yourself, you can definitely capture the entire stronghold easily.
"Captain, it seems that all the Eighth Route Army troops in the stronghold are dead!" Seeing that the attacking troops entered the stronghold with almost no resistance, the adjutant next to the squadron leader could not believe his eyes and asked blankly.
The entire attack went so smoothly, beyond imagination.
They had all fought against the Eighth Route Army before, and they admired the Eighth Route Army's courage to fight to the death on the battlefield, even though they were all Japanese Army soldiers deeply influenced by the Bushido spirit.
If this situation were in the past, if the Imperial Army wanted to capture the stronghold held by the Eighth Route Army, even if it had an absolute firepower advantage, it would still have to go through a hard battle to capture it.
The squadron leader was also frightened by this attack that went too smoothly, but he quickly recovered from the shock.
"Whether they ran away or died, we need to capture the stronghold first. The stronghold is the commanding heights of the entire Shimiao Town. If we take down the gun tower, our machine gun firepower can cover the entire Shimiao Town. No matter where Tuba Road is hiding, we will hide.
But our condescending fire strikes!”
"Also, heavy machine guns and mortars, follow immediately!"
"After the infantry occupied the gun tower, they immediately mounted the heavy machine guns and mortars on the roof of the gun tower and provided fire support to other attacking troops from a high position!"
Since there was a possibility that he would not be able to win the new regiment headquarters, the squadron leader had to settle for the next best thing and collect other military exploits as much as possible.
"Kill!" Two Japanese troops, one from the east and one from the west, by a surprising coincidence, rushed under the gun tower at the same time.
The Japs from both squadrons wanted to be the first to rush into the gun tower and occupy the commanding heights of the gun tower.
So, dozens of Japanese soldiers poured into the small gun tower.
There are also heavy machine guns and mortars, which are constantly being sent to the roof of the turret.
As for the remaining Japanese, they were frantically searching the hotel for possible surviving Eighth Route Army soldiers.
For them, if they failed to capture the headquarters of the new Eighth Route Army regiment, it would be good to kill a few Eighth Route Army troops. No matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. It is better than nothing.
"Captain, all the Japs are close to the stronghold. There are actually two hundred men, as well as many heavy machine gun and mortar units!" On a roof more than fifty meters away from the stronghold, Tang Guangxin lay on it and raised his hand.
He used the telescope to observe the situation of the stronghold and reported the situation to Wang Ping in the yard.
"You kid, you think the stronghold is our new regiment headquarters. Everyone wants to kill me, Wang Ping, at the stronghold!" Wang Ping sneered.
Until this moment, Xiong Changhe still didn't understand what medicine Wang Ping sold in his gourd.
Only Tang Guangxin, who had been setting up in the gun tower with Wang Ping for nearly half an hour, knew it. When he saw that the Japanese had almost all entered, the casualties of the other two platoons were increasing, and the defense line was already in danger.
He stared at Wang Ping with bright eyes and asked: "Captain, it's almost done!"
"Detonate!" Wang Ping ordered decisively.
"What detonated it?" Xiong Changhe couldn't help but ask after hearing the incomprehensible conversation between Wang Ping and Xiong Changhe.
"Rumble..." As soon as he finished speaking, a series of earth-shaking explosions reached Xiong Changhe's ears.
Because he was too close to the stronghold, Xiong Changhe even had strong tinnitus, and the ground beneath his feet began to tremble.
"It's a stronghold. The stronghold exploded!" Xiong Changhe suddenly reacted.
Looking at the stronghold dozens of meters away, which was already blazing into the sky, the puzzled expression just now disappeared, replaced by shock and heartfelt surprise.
Yes, it was a surprise. He did not expect that the gift Wang Ping prepared for the Japanese at the stronghold would be so big.
A flaming explosion killed nearly two hundred Japs.
At this time, he wanted to chase Wang Ping and ask him how he did it.
However, Wang Ping did not give him this opportunity.
"Why are you still standing there? There are nearly two companies of puppet troops outside the stronghold. They were all frightened and rushed forward to capture them."
"The puppet army is our best recruit. Two companies of the puppet army can at least bring us one company of recruits, and they are also trained recruits!"
