There were more than thirty trucks and two military jeeps in the garage. Company Commander Wang commanded the soldiers to drive out twenty trucks to transport unburned grain and clothing. After the trucks were fully loaded, Li Ming ordered two platoons of the transportation company to escort the loaded goods.
The trucks returned to the Black Tiger Mountain station first. Company Commander Wang took it upon himself to load two barrels of fuel into each vehicle. He knew that fuel was a scarce military material and was difficult to obtain due to the tight control of the Japanese. Without fuel, the trucks would become scrap metal.
The remaining dozen trucks and two military jeeps were filled with fuel, and soldiers from a remaining transportation platoon drove the team led by Li Ming straight to the Japanese arsenal.
Captain Shanpu of the Japanese headquarters saw a raging fire burning in the direction of the uniform warehouse, and heard the sound of gunfire becoming increasingly rare over there. He estimated that the grain depot and the uniform warehouse had been lost, and the enemy's target was about to shift to the arsenal.
The arsenal is guarded by a squadron and a gendarmerie squad and is well-equipped. The headquarters bunker is more than 300 meters away from the arsenal. It is guarded by a squadron of Japanese troops. The powerful firepower can block the road into the arsenal and prevent it from entering the arsenal.
The defenders formed a crossfire and formed a formation like an iron barrel. It was not easy for the enemy to break through the arsenal. But the enemy they encountered this time was unprecedentedly powerful and had fierce firepower. They were different from any Chinese army. They wore black military uniforms and looked like they were
The legendary Anti-Japanese Tigers with terrifying combat capabilities, Sato's elite squadron of the Imperial Army was completely destroyed in their hands. The arrogant Captain Yamagama felt timid for the first time on the battlefield.
Shanpu hesitated for a moment, but still called the headquarters for help. Facing a powerful enemy, he was not very sure that the arsenal was safe. He reported the situation at the station in detail, and exaggeratedly reported that the Anti-Japanese Tigers had more than two battalions.
A fierce attack was launched on the arsenal, and our troops suffered heavy losses. The cavalry squadron and a small group of imperial soldiers were all smashed to pieces.
"Baga!" Commander Kameda answered the phone and cursed angrily: "The military columns have been robbed, and the grain depot has been captured. If the arsenal is no longer safe, prepare to have a caesarean section to apologize! I will immediately send two mobile brigades for reinforcements, but
The provincial capital is more than 300 kilometers away from the station, and it takes four or five hours at the fastest on a simple highway. I will dispatch a squadron from Hushan Town to rush to you, and you must wait for help!"
"Hai!" Shan Pu replied standing at attention, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. He hung up the phone, holding his saber, and trotted to the bunker's observation window to personally supervise the battle. The news of the approaching reinforcements was like giving him a shot of stimulant, making him
The confidence to guard against death is doubled.
Li Ming and Li Tiezhu's teams converged. Li Tiezhu reported that the enemy's firepower was very fierce and the fortifications were very strong, and it might be difficult to break through for a while. Li Ming observed carefully with a telescope and found that the enemy headquarters and the surrounding bunkers of the arsenal formed a cross-energized force, effectively blocking the
The entrance to the road leading to the arsenal. Unlike the sandbag bunkers in the grain depot and service warehouse, the bunker fortifications here are all thick reinforced concrete buildings, which are stronger than expected. The mortars only raised some dust fragments.
, the grenade grenades couldn't attack them at all. Moreover, there were not many shells left. It seemed that the only option was to use explosives according to the captain's plan.
Jiang Hailong explained two plans for attacking the arsenal: first, try to break through the enemy defenders and rob the arsenal. If that failed, use mortars to blow up the arsenal. If mortars were not effective against reinforced concrete fortifications, use explosives instead, and
He creatively explained how to use vehicle-borne bombs, saying that no bunker could withstand the attack of a powerful vehicle-borne bomb.
At this time, reinforcements from Liu Heizi and a machine gun platoon had arrived on horseback, and the Tigers' firepower increased greatly. Li Ming ordered Liu Heizi to bring ten light machine guns and two heavy machine guns to block the firepower in the direction of the Japanese headquarters. Li Tiezhu
All the weapons of the Second Battalion fired at the gun holes of the enemy's bunker fortifications guarding the arsenal, covering the car bombs approaching the bunker.
The demolition squad loaded all 600 kilograms of explosives they carried on two trucks, and calculated the length of the fuse based on distance and vehicle speed. Li Ming installed two boxes of grenades on each vehicle for safety.
Two soldiers from the transport company each started the car, depressed the clutch and put it into first gear, aimed the wheels at the bunker, fixed the steering wheel with a rope, pressed the brick on the accelerator pedal, slowly released the clutch and braked, then jumped out of the car, igniting the fuse.
It had been ignited at this time, and the unmanned car rumbled towards the bunker. Everyone in the Tigers lay on the ground, shooting, and nervously and excitedly looking at the moving car bomb. Only the transport company commander Wang Weihua sighed sadly: "
