One month has gone by in a blink of an eye, and the time has come to the end of April.
After Sun Desheng's month of training, the cavalry brigade has made rapid progress. In addition, in this month's time.
Sun Desheng would take them in batches from time to time to see the blood, and the temperament of the cavalry brigade also improved dramatically.
At least at first glance, they no longer look like new recruits.
Ding Wei decided not to wait any longer and led his troops to attack the labor camp early this morning.
Today is April 29th, the birthday of Emperor Showa of Japan.
On such an important day, the Japanese would definitely care about it very much.
Ding Wei also deliberately chose this day.
He didn't mean anything else. We, Old Ding, are just a rough guy.
It just so happens that we can use this day to blow up the Japanese Emperor, blow up an airport, and celebrate the birthday of the old Japanese who is far away on the island.
In addition to the cavalry brigade, Ding Wei also brought Zhuzi, 20 artillerymen, and the 028 squad for this operation.
Other than that, everyone stayed in the base area to avoid unexpected situations.
Because of the special nature of Team 028, Ding Wei ordered them to go to Chengyang County two hours ago.
Let them deal with the outposts on the outside first and prepare for the follow-up troops.
After a month of reconnaissance, Ding Wei had long been familiar with the Japanese sentry pattern.
Although they have a reinforced squadron in the labor camp, their numbers are still somewhat insufficient because they protect the airport.
The sentries on the periphery are basically on duty for one day.
And Ding Wei asked them to get rid of their sentries when they changed guard, so as to buy more time for the attacking troops.
In addition to them, the 1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion, 3rd Battalion, machine gun company and other units all stayed in the base area to protect the safety of the base area.
Recently, the Japanese have begun to make big moves again, conducting frequent searches, although they have not found anything near the base area for the time being.
But you can’t leave your luck to the enemy not being able to find you, and you can’t go out and steal the enemy’s airport, only to have the enemy turn around and steal your home.
April 29th.
Early morning.
Ding Wei led his troops to quietly leave the base area. In order to prevent being detected by the enemy, he deliberately chose a hidden route, bypassed the Japanese defense area, and quietly advanced towards Chengyang County.
After crossing the rugged mountain road, there was a large plain, and the cavalry brigade immediately started galloping.
After two hours of rapid march, they successfully arrived at a hilly area two kilometers away from the Chengyang County Airport and set up an ambush.
Because this is a plain, the sound of riding horses will definitely carry far away. In order to prevent being noticed by the enemies in the airport, they dismounted early and walked.
At this moment, although it is already early morning.
But the lights inside the labor camp were brightly lit, with several searchlights shining back and forth in the labor camp.
"Captain."
Ding Wei was holding a telescope and observing the activities in the labor camp.
Suddenly, I heard someone calling me in my ear. When I turned around, I saw a man with camouflage makeup on his face and rags on his body.
But looking at those big eyes, Ding Wei could recognize this guy as a monk at a glance.
"How is it?" Ding Wei asked.
"All the open and hidden outposts have been eliminated. We reconnoitred again to make sure there are no hidden outposts around." Monk Wei replied.
Suddenly he heard someone talking next to him, which frightened Sun Desheng. Ma and San were startled, and they both wanted to draw their guns.
"It's okay, don't worry, we're one of our own." Ding Wei comforted, and then looked at Monk Wei: "Continue to lurk, your mission this time is reconnaissance, there is no need for you to take action."
"Yes!" Monk Wei responded and left quietly.
"How did he come?" Sun Desheng looked at Ma San and asked.
Ma San shook his head and said he didn't know.
Looking at the figure hidden in the darkness, the two of them couldn't help but feel chilled.
Gupao/span If the enemy just came...
When did this guy appear in the 28th Regiment?
Judging from the conversation between them, there are people like him lurking around, and they have already solved the enemy's hidden outposts.
Both of them looked at Ding Wei.
"Is he one of ours?" Sun Desheng asked.
"Where does all this nonsense come from?" Ding Wei said.
Seeing that Ding Wei did not want to talk more, Sun Desheng and Ma San remained silent and continued to observe the labor camp.
"Zhuzi, have you seen the Japanese labor camp?" Ding Wei handed the binoculars to Zhuzi and spread out the map.
Zhuzi nodded and said: "I saw the leader, if you have any orders, just tell me directly."
"When we launch an attack, you first bring the artillery and knock out the Japanese automatic firearms and mortars!" Ding Wei ordered.
Light and heavy machine guns, plus mortars, are a disaster for the cavalry, so these heavy weapons must be dealt with first.
Once the Japs lost their fire support, it was impossible to lock down the highly mobile cavalry with the rifles in their hands.
"Understood." Zhu Zhu nodded.
"Remember, you must deal with the enemy's light and heavy firepower before the cavalry rushes to the labor camp and open a way for us to get out!" Ding Wei said again.
"Yes, Captain, I promise to complete the mission!" Zhu Zhu shouted in a low voice, and then waved his hand behind him.
Soon, the artillerymen came with mortars and shells.
Their current position is only 2 kilometers away from the labor camp, which is exactly within the coverage range of mortars.
Zhu Zhu began to direct the artillery to take up positions, locking in the positions of the Japanese's various light and heavy firepower in the labor camp.
The labor camp was brightly lit, which saved Zhuzi a lot of time to correct mistakes.
While Zhu Zhu was busy, Ding Wei also began to assemble the cavalry.
Ding Wei believed very much in Zhu Zhu's ability. Under his training, the artillery's accuracy became much higher.
For this kind of fixed-point coordinates, it is easy for them to do it for the pillars.
Hundreds of cavalry soon gathered on the endless plain.
"I won't say any more nonsense. This is the first time our cavalry brigade takes action. It's time to test you." Ding Wei glanced at the cavalry in front of him.
"On this mission, we are only allowed to succeed and not fail. Today is the day the Japanese Emperor gets to fucking pull him out.
We don’t have anything to give as a gift, so we’ll blow up an airport to cheer him up!”
As soon as Ding Wei finished speaking, the screams of several artillery shells suddenly sounded in his ears.
Look up.
In the dark night sky, several dazzling lights suddenly flashed across the sky, quickly heading towards the labor camp.
Then, they saw several streaks of fire rising up in the labor camp one after another, and four sentry towers were broken directly in the middle, lying across the labor camp.
In an instant, the lights in the labor camp dimmed a lot.
One of the sentry towers fell, directly smashing a wooden house with an antenna on it.
The Japanese inside had no chance of escaping, so they were crushed into meat pies.
Zhuzhu held a telescope and carefully observed the situation in the labor camp, and he immediately became happy.
In addition to the four guard towers that were blown up, in the round of bombing just now, they destroyed at least three Japanese light machine guns.
Zhuzi took advantage of the victory and continued to order artillery to bomb the labor camp.
10 mortars were fired simultaneously.
Accompanied by a muffled sound of "dong dong dong", the cannonballs dragged out a tail flame and sprayed out from the barrel one after another.
The artillery shells carried a devastating momentum and were scattered at various fire points deployed by the Japanese in the labor camp.
