At eight o'clock in the evening, under the cover of darkness, more than a hundred figures approached a small stronghold where the Fujino brigade was stationed!
When they were still three hundred meters away from the stronghold, the half-encircled troops stopped decisively!
"Company Commander, if we go further ahead, the Japs can see us with their searchlights. All the bushes and obstacles where we can hide have been cleared, and we have no way to hide. The Japs have also set up heavy machine guns on the turrets. Once we
If we are exposed, they will shoot us down with machine guns!"
Company Commander Zhang frowned and said nothing, but directly turned his attention to a middle-aged man next to him, the platoon leader of the artillery battalion!
My heart is also in my throat, I am deeply afraid that the other person will say that the distance is too far!
The power of the heavy machine gun is too great. If the troops continue to approach the stronghold and are discovered by the Japanese, the heavy machine gun will fire with all their strength!
Even if there is a company and more than a hundred soldiers standing behind him, it is not enough to kill him!
Before setting off, the battalion commander gave himself a death order and unconditionally cooperated with the artillery around him!
This means that once Platoon Leader Zhou shakes his head, he will lead the team forward even if he knows that continuing to move forward will lead to death and suicide!
Fortunately, Platoon Leader Zhou did not shake his head immediately!
Half-squatting on the ground, he raised his right hand, gave a thumbs up, and gestured carefully for two minutes before answering!
"Enough, this distance is completely within the effective range of the thunder cannon!"
"Captain Zhang, I would like to ask your troops to cooperate with us in setting up artillery positions!"
"I brought three thunder cannons and set them all up. Each thunder cannon fired two explosive packets at the Japanese stronghold. After the attack, the troops launched an attack on the stronghold and occupied it!"
Captain Zhang stared with big eyes and showed a shocked expression!
The Japanese stronghold opposite not only has a turret, but also three machine gun bunkers, all of which are made of masonry. Even if a mortar shell hits it, it will only leave a white spot!
Why is Platoon Commander Zhou next to me so loud?
Is it just because of the three gasoline barrels he brought?
Platoon Leader Zhou ignored Company Commander Zhang's doubts and directly ordered his subordinates to start deploying flying thunder cannons!
Everyone was very careful because they were afraid of disturbing the little Japs 300 meters away!
It usually takes ten minutes to set up the flying thunder cannon, but today it took half an hour!
"Company Commander Zhang, immediately order the troops to leave the artillery position at least twenty meters and prepare for an attack!"
"The flying thunder cannon is not a mountain cannon. It is made by our arsenal. It is very likely to explode!"
Company Commander Zhang became even more nervous and his expression became more and more solemn!
Can homemade artillery, which cannot even guarantee safety, destroy the turrets and bunkers in the stronghold?
If it cannot be destroyed, will the troops suffer heavy casualties when they attack later, and the battle will end in failure?
"Charge, ignite, conceal!"
As soon as the troops withdrew, platoon leader Zhou began to issue orders in an orderly and very calm manner!
"boom……"
Three dull explosions sounded almost simultaneously!
Under the gaze of more than a hundred pairs of eyes, three gasoline barrels sprayed out a large amount of gunpowder and white smoke at the same time!
Three explosive packets were pushed out of the gasoline barrel at the same time, flew into the sky, and disappeared from everyone's sight!
The little Japanese security force three hundred meters away was finally alerted!
The alarm sound soon sounded in the stronghold, and the searchlights immediately swept the lampposts towards the location of the three thunder cannons. The heavy machine guns also sounded, and bullets flew over like meteors!
"boom……"
The battalion headquarters reinforced a heavy machine gun from the 7th Company and fired in time!
The bullets reflected towards the turret and flew towards the searchlight in a fan shape!
In the blink of an eye, the searchlight went out, and the heavy machine gun mounted on the top of the turret lost its target!
"Boom boom boom..."
It was only then that a series of earth-shaking explosions sounded at the stronghold, and three orange-red fireballs rose into the sky, rising five to six meters high!
More than a hundred people in the Seventh Company were frightened!
The explosion was so loud, it was like thunder. Even though it was three hundred meters away, it still made everyone's ears buzz!
At the same time, the huge lethality caused by the explosion was also revealed!
The heavy machine gun named Zheng Huan on the top of the turret instantly misfired and lost all movement!
The bustling stronghold has also become quieter!
Except for a few explosions of ammunition from time to time, there were not many gunshots left!
"Cool the barrel, continue charging, ignite, and hide!"
Platoon leader Zhou had known about this scene for a long time. He did not show any shock on his face, he was very calm and gave the order very seriously!
"Boom boom boom..."
Three explosions soon sounded at the artillery position. After two or three seconds, the earth-shaking explosion sounded at the Japanese stronghold!
Just like before, the fireball rose into the sky and illuminated the stronghold brightly!
Even though they were three hundred meters apart and under the cover of night, Captain Zhang could still see the stronghold clearly!
"Captain Zhang, what are you doing standing still? Hurry up and kill him. Don't miss this opportunity!" Platoon Leader Zhou shouted anxiously!
Captain Zhang was stunned for a moment and couldn't believe his ears!
The turrets and bunkers are still standing at the stronghold and intact!
Although there are no more shots fired inside, as long as there are still Japanese soldiers alive inside, even if they only use a machine gun to shoot outside, they can still cause huge casualties to the Seventh Company!
Seeing Captain Zhang's hesitation, Platoon Commander Zhou became even more anxious and immediately shouted: "Attack quickly!"
"What was fired just now was an explosive pack with twenty kilograms of explosives and a lethal force of at least twenty meters!"
"Although the turrets are intact, the Japanese inside are all dead. Even if they were not killed by the shock, they were stunned and will definitely lose their fighting ability in a short time!"
"If you kill him now, you'll be taking advantage!"
Company Commander Zhang finally reacted and no longer hesitated!
Just jump up from the ground, raise the box cannon and rush towards the stronghold, shouting while rushing!
"Corpser, blow the charge horn!"
"Comrades, all fight with me, seize the stronghold, kill all the little devils...charge!"
After walking around the stronghold, the shock and excitement on Captain Zhang's face were gone, and his face was pale!
He was frightened!
Several soldiers rushed out of the bunker and squatted next to them, vomiting, their faces pale!
The instructor's face was also very ugly, and he couldn't help but speak when the turret rushed out!
"Company Commander, it's so miserable inside the stronghold!"
"The Japs are all dead. They were all shocked and bleeding. I have been fighting Japs for so long and I have never seen such a miserable battlefield!"
"The surface of the body is intact, but all the internal organs have been shattered!"
Captain Zhang forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath and replied: "I didn't expect the power of the flying thunder cannon to be so powerful, and it directly shocked so many little devils to death!"
"But that's good, the Japanese were shocked to death, the turrets and bunkers were not blown down, and the weapons and ammunition inside are all intact and can be picked up and used!"
"If I remember correctly, the stronghold is equipped with two heavy machine guns, two mortars, and a mountain cannon. Now these equipment and ammunition are all ours! Order the troops to clean up the battlefield immediately. Five minutes later, we will directly
Kill towards the Japanese central stronghold!"
"At first, the battalion commander told me that one battalion could kill a large group of Japanese soldiers. I didn't believe it, but now I do!"
