"Ninth Company Commander, if you don't lead your troops to block the Japanese rescue, why are you running back? Where are the Three Treasures?" Su Yuan looked at the Ninth Company Commander and shouted immediately.
"Captain." The Ninth Company Commander saluted and replied: "Sambo asked me to come back, saying that we need to transport the captured materials here."
"Hmph, once the Japanese reinforcements arrive, let alone supplies, it will be difficult for us to escape," Su Yuan shouted.
"Captain, don't worry about this." The ninth company commander replied: "The seventh company commander led his company to establish a blocking position on the favorable terrain of the mountain pass. Even if the Japanese came up with a large group, they could block it, let alone the three treasures in front of the position.
He also directed the laying of a large number of mines."
"Where is the railway?" Su Yuan asked with concern: "Don't you care about the three treasures?"
"Sanbao will lead us to set up a place three or four miles away from here..." the ninth company commander introduced.
"What!?" Su Yuan was shocked. The blocking point set up by Sanbao was too close, and he didn't have many soldiers in his hands. Even if the railway was destroyed, the enemy would crawl over.
"Then you can rest assured..." Before the Ninth Company finished speaking, an earth-shattering explosion sounded from far away, and then just a few seconds later, another one even more violent than the first one was heard.
After the explosion, a huge black smoke appeared in the sky several miles away, and immediately, a line of smoke stretching for hundreds of meters rose into the sky, looking like a giant black dragon with fangs and claws flying into the air...
Sanbao led two companies to block the attack. He first rushed to a road extending out of the hills. He took a fancy to a section of the terrain at the mountain pass. There were staggered highlands on both sides where ladder positions could be set up. What he valued more was the
The winding and narrow road in front of us is like the second tiger's mouth! As long as we lay mines on the road and then ambush blocking troops on the highlands on both sides, then this place will be foolproof.
Sanbao was most concerned about the railway at this time, so after the deployment, he immediately rushed to the railway line with the Ninth Company. According to the wishes of the Ninth Company Commander, the troops should find favorable terrain as much as possible for the interception, and should stay as far away from the mining area as possible.
This will buy time for the large force to attack.
However, Sanbao stopped not far along the railway. "We will stop the enemy here." Sanbao said to the ninth company commander.
"Here!?" The ninth company commander felt incredible. There was a flat area in front of him, but the railway turned a corner here and then led to the mining area. "This is too close. Once we can't stop the Japanese, they will be gone in ten minutes."
We can reach the mining area." The ninth company commander said worriedly: "And the terrain here has almost no place to set up positions, so we can't stop the Japanese."
"You can stop it!" Sanbao said confidently: "Just wait and see the good show."
Sanbao immediately led several soldiers to lay mines at the bend of the railway. What Sanbao had to do was to blow the approaching locomotive out of the outer ring of the track. In this way, the centrifugal force generated by the train when turning and its inertia would inevitably cause it to roll outwards.
…
"Sambo, your method is good, but even if it succeeds, you may not have a major blow to the Japanese on the train. What will happen once they climb out and move forward?" After listening to Sanbao's story, the Ninth Company Commander was still a little worried.
"I told you to wait and see the good show." Sanbao laid the mines on the railway, and then led the soldiers to plant mines outside the railway. This time, they were along the railway. In order to increase the power of the explosion, Sanbao ordered the whole company
The soldiers took off all the grenades and buried them together...
Only then did the Ninth Company Commander understand Sanbao's entire combat intention. "Sambo, I'm really convinced by you. This way our entire company won't have to participate in the battle," the Ninth Company Commander said.
"So, I have completed your task for you, and you can help me with the rest. You lead two platoons to the mining area to help me transport machinery and supplies." Sanbao said.
"Isn't this good? Commander..." The ninth company commander hesitated.
"Then you stay here and I go back." Sanbao threatened.
"How could I tinker with these things you buried!" The ninth company commander immediately objected.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Sanbao asked.
The Ninth Company Commander thought about it and felt that there was really no need for him to stay here. Gunshots were also heard from behind. It seemed that the battle had begun. He might be able to catch up with the battle if he led his troops there at this time. He finally
Agree.
Sanbao stayed behind and continued to monitor. Finally, the soldier lying on the railway track and listening sent a signal for the arrival of the train. Soon, a train with white smoke from its locomotive came speeding from a distance. When the train was about to arrive,
Start to slow down slightly around the corner.
Sanbao watched closely. When the locomotive reached the blasting position, he waved his hand, and the soldiers around him immediately triggered the buried mines...
