When Tang Dao's eyes crossed with the Japanese officer sitting in the tricycle, and the motorcade drove forward more than 500 meters, the gentle smile on Tang Dao's face was replaced by a cold look.
"Erya, go ahead and cut the Japanese phone lines first."
"Yes!" Erya, who was in the rear compartment, subconsciously accepted the order, jumped out of the slowed-down truck with Niu Er, and ran toward the ruins on the side of the road.
The motorcade slowly stopped.
"Sir, will that alarm the Japanese?" Gu Xishui looked at Tang Dao's cold-looking face in the car lights with his peripheral vision, and asked cautiously.
Seeing the young soldier's bold yet careful questioning, Tang Dao smiled faintly.
"Sir, I..." Gu Xishui couldn't help but feel anxious.
He didn't question this question, he just felt that the commander seemed to have some new tactical arrangements, but he couldn't think of it.
Tang Dao lit a cigarette, took two puffs himself, and handed it to Gu Xishui: "Take a few puffs first to relieve fatigue. Later, I won't have the time."
Before Gu Xishui could speak again, Tang Dao replied leisurely: "That Japanese officer recognized me."
"Uh!" Gu Xishui and the soldiers in the carriage looked awe-struck.
No one asked how Tang Dao knew it. Since Tang Dao said it, it must be so.
They knew what that meant. It meant that the road of pretending was no longer feasible. From this moment on, they had to fight their way out.
But, with just a hundred men and a hundred guns, could they fight their way out of the Japanese encirclement?
Thinking that the entire Japanese army in Songhu had at least more than 200,000 people, the collective scalps of these iron-blooded soldiers, who had fought ten times the size of the Japanese army for nearly a week without fear, all went numb.
"If I had known that I was so handsome and could make an old man miss me so much, I should have covered my face and gone out of the warehouse to fuck that kid!" Tang Dao continued to sigh.
Many people chuckled, but their moods unknowingly became lighter with this smile.
"Sir, what you are saying is that your handsomeness is our only flaw!" Gu Xishui, who had just been nervous because of his nervousness, relaxed and boldly started joking with Tang Dao.
"Haha! Ah Shui has a future, so I'm going to blame you for flattering the commander so blindly. When I expand the team in the future and I become the company commander, why don't I ask Commander Tang to arrange a platoon commander for you?"
Leng Feng, who was striding over from behind, happened to hear this and smiled.
"I've seen important officials before, but I've never seen such important officials as you, Commander Leng. There's really no cover-up at all!" Tang Dao pointed at Leng Feng and sighed.
Everyone laughs.
The worries that had arisen just now about fighting a bloody path among the 200,000 Japanese troops were forgotten by a group of Chinese soldiers who chuckled.
Don’t be cowardly, just do it! The superiors don’t worry, we worry about nothing!
The general is the courage of the soldier, this is the truth.
"Leng Feng, please send an order to the entire company. The cut phone line can only delay the Japanese army's communication. After passing the next checkpoint, everyone should change their clothes and let's fight out!" Tang Dao saw Erya and Niu Er running from the ruins.
After Chu jumped into the car, he gave the order coldly.
Twenty minutes later, the convoy had left the Sihang Warehouse about 7 kilometers away and entered the second Japanese checkpoint.
Because there was a phone call from the first checkpoint, the convoy was reduced correctly. This checkpoint was obviously much looser. Tang Dao just responded to the night inquiry password, and threw out a few cans of beef and cigarettes. Chief Cao, who was leading the team, waved his hand.
Signaling for clearance, the second lieutenant leading the team did not even step out of the fortification.
Here, it should be about 8 kilometers away from the western front line of Shanghai.
According to the information obtained from the previous chat with the 'fellow' second lieutenant, there are still two Japanese checkpoints to pass, but these are not the most difficult ones. The most difficult thing is how to break out of the Japanese army's position and enter our own controlled area.
Not to mention that Toyoda Hide, who was starting to gather troops a few kilometers away, thought that Tang Dao and others were just moths chasing the flames, seeking their own death. Even the more than a hundred officers and soldiers who were no longer so nervous felt that the possibility was close to zero.
It's just that Chief Tang said yes, so he did it. Tang Dao relied on his single-soldier skills and tactics and his astonishing commanding skills that he had excelled in the Sihang Warehouse in the past few days, and he had completely become the leader of this group of hundreds of battles.
Backbone.
Tang Dao had already sat in the driver's seat of the lead car, and two piles of sandbags were specially placed on the front of the car. Although his line of sight was blocked, he could overcome the bullets coming towards him.
Except for a handful of drivers in the cab who were still wearing yellow cotton-padded uniforms made by Japanese soldiers, the soldiers hiding in the cabs all changed into dark blue military uniforms to prevent accidental injuries in the subsequent battles.
Under such sight conditions, it is an instinctive reaction to judge your teammates based on their military uniforms. Any hesitation on the battlefield will lead to your own death.
The third checkpoint is not far away, less than 2 kilometers away. Presumably it is because it is closer to the front line, and the symbolic inspection is far greater than the actual effect.
In the dim light of the headlights, the figure of the Japanese sentry waving a small flag outside the checkpoint was clearly visible. The checkpoint was quiet, not as if facing a powerful enemy, everything was as usual.
But Tang Dao had a look of regret on his face. His premonition was very good, and the Japanese major officer with a dull expression really recognized him.
The Japanese troops at this checkpoint must have been notified and used various means to hold back the convoy.
For example, just like they are doing now, they pretend not to know, but they are hiding murderous intentions. When the convoy enters their most suitable attack range, they will launch an attack.
An infantry squad may not have enough strength, but they are all hiding behind the fortifications. It will take at least time to wipe them all out, especially if they are caught off guard and attacked.
The Japanese army had actually tried very hard to cover it up, but despite all the drama, the infantry team leader they led was obviously not confident enough to remain calm in front of the Chinese soldiers who had killed them to pieces.
Therefore, when such a convoy came, they sent an unlucky guy to greet it.
Although they were still more than twenty meters apart, Tang Dao could almost see clearly the pitiful and helpless little body of the Japanese soldier who was trying hard to hold his buttocks between his legs to prevent himself from peeing out of fear.
"Get ready to fight!" Following Tang Dao's low roar, the steering wheel suddenly turned to the left.
The truck that was moving forward actually drifted directly on the broken road, with its huge body lying across the road.
A flare was fired into the air from the second truck, and the Japanese troops' deployment at the checkpoint was clearly visible.
Two light machine guns and two heavy machine guns were placed by the Japanese army in field fortifications on both sides of the road, while nearly forty Japanese infantry were distributed in simple trenches on both sides of the road thirty meters away. Their frightened eyes were clear under the light of the flares.
visible.
Isn't it because the Chinese fired flares preemptively? That thing can't kill people, can it?
However, there are things that can kill people.
The tarpaulin of the truck across the road has been lifted.
There was no material in the back of the truck, but a fortification made of two layers of sandbags. In the middle of the fortification was a twin-mounted machine gun that had its muzzle pointed at them.
No one knows what it feels like to face a 20mm cannon at close range with a shooter who has already pulled the trigger, because those who know are basically dead.
But come to think of it, at that moment, all the hairs exploded, just like a chicken with all the feathers on its neck exploding!
This is how the Japanese army who planned to engage in an ambush battle must have felt.
Tietou, who had given up the driving seat to Gu Xishui, had already sat in the shooting position, the springboard had been inserted, and the safety had been turned on to overcome the severe dizziness caused by the crazy drift of the crazy racing driver Tang Dalian.
After that, Tietou, who retched, pointed the muzzle of the machine gun at the heavy machine gun fortification shrouded in the light of the flares.
The familiar muffled sound of "dong dong" sounded, causing the Japanese troops who had been rubbed by the Sulotong machine gun for several days to collectively lower their heads.
No one wants to be killed by this thing. It is a terrifying weapon that even the Type 89 tank has to kneel down to hit.
Unfortunately, there is no solid fortress like Sihang Warehouse, which is more than half a meter thick. At most, there are only sandbags to withstand heavy machine gun fire.
The 20mm artillery shell, which can penetrate the 30mm steel plate at a distance of 500 meters, has not even completed all its acceleration before it got into the sandbag. While the sandbag was scattered with dust, it also easily penetrated the obstruction of the sandbag, and the
The Japanese soldiers hiding behind were beaten to pieces.
The powerful kinetic energy of a cigar-sized 20mm machine gun shell is completely unreasonable. What kind of cavity or hole will be formed when the bullet hits the human body? If hit by such a shell, it will almost explode into a cloud of blood mist.
.
Hit in the arm, no arm, hit in the leg, broken leg, hit in the torso, congratulations, you can go to see Amaterasu in pieces. It depends on the skill of Amaterasu's tailor, but generally speaking, it can't be put together.
Yes, because part of it has been beaten into mincemeat.
Two MG34s and five Czech-style light machine guns were also showing off their power. Although the power was not as powerful as the machine guns, the heavy bullets were so heavy that the Japanese infantrymen on both wings did not dare to risk their lives.
Two infantry squads approached the Japanese position from both wings under the cover of machine guns and submachine guns.
The two mortars were also moved out of the vehicle as quickly as possible by the artillery team. After the Japanese grenade launchers began to test-fire, they immediately opened fire to suppress them.
The captured Japanese infantry guns and rapid-fire cannons were very troublesome to install, but the grenade launchers were very convenient. Chinese soldiers also often used these. They were not unfamiliar at all. Ten of the 32 grenade launchers were taken out and distributed to the soldiers.
From a distance of more than 100 meters, the Japanese grenade was thrown over.
As soon as he came up, Tang Dao used the heavy firepower he could muster in the shortest time. He was not stingy at all, a typical killing method.
Because what he needs is time.
In the shortest possible time, kill this group of Japanese troops and then run away before the Japanese troops can react and secure their pockets.
