The engineer soldier responsible for detonating the explosives pressed the detonator and detonated the explosives buried on the railway tracks.
An explosion like a landslide suddenly sounded. In the explosive fireball, a carriage was instantly blown away, and the Japanese's broken limbs could be seen flying continuously.
This explosion will kill at least one Japs No. 100 in the carriage!
However, the Japanese showed no fear and howled and fought back. There were even Japanese infantry with bayonets in hand, and under the cover of grenade launchers, machine guns and rapid-fire cannons, they launched a countercharge towards the hilltops against the hail of bullets.
If the soldiers of the 4th Regiment or Regiment were responsible for ambushing the 1st Infantry Regiment, they might actually allow the Japanese to counterattack and occupy the hilltop.
But this time the enemy's opponents were the new regiment's troops.
The soldiers of the new regiment quickly set up their light machine guns, and one submachine gun from each squad fired first. Then, the light machine guns also started barking wildly.
Da da da…
A dense fire net composed of submachine guns and light machine guns, and the Japanese infantry who jumped from the train to counterattack were instantly beaten into a honeycomb.
"stop!"
A sharp whistling sound sounded, and a rocket soldier fired a rocket.
The rocket streaked through the air with a long tail and flew towards the train. A Japanese lieutenant, waving his command saber in his hand, just jumped off the train and caught the rocket with his body.
With a loud bang, the Japanese lieutenant instantly turned into a blood-red rain.
After the explosion, the Japanese Lieutenant had disappeared without a trace.
However, the Japanese soldiers' marksmanship was also extremely accurate. The grenade fired from the grenade almost hit the target. The Sixth and Seventh Battalions also suffered casualties.
"idiot!"
"Set up the machine guns and mortars and take out the enemy's firepower points!"
"Kill me!"
A Japanese soldier wearing the rank of Shaozuo. This Japanese soldier was very strong, with a resolute expression and cold eyes. He gave orders to the Japanese troops around him without any fear.
Da da da…
There was a gnawing sound in the left ear of the Japanese master, and then he looked at himself in disbelief, and was instantly shot into two pieces by an M-heavy machine gun.
Immediately afterwards, the firepower of the M heavy machine gun extended towards the Japanese mortar soldiers, and the flesh and blood continued to shoot out.
…
Peking.
Iron Lion Alley.
North China Front Army Headquarters.
Commander Neiji Okamura got up early today. After washing, he was not in a hurry to have breakfast. He practiced sword practice in the yard with great interest.
In another hour, the 3rd Heavy Artillery Regiment and the 3rd Infantry Regiment will arrive at Datong.
After arriving in Datong, tractors were used directly to transport the weapons to the front line.
Haha, it’s just a thickened bunker. Can it withstand the firepower of a 10mm cannon and a 40mm heavy cannon?
Okamura Neji was in great spirits.
The strongest new regiment of the Eighth Route Army was pinned down in northwest Shanxi and unable to move.
To put it bluntly, even if the intelligence is leaked, how can the 3rd Infantry Regiment be defeated by the mere Tuba Road of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region operating in that area?
This wave, Okamura Neji felt very stable.
Yousue Seizan happened to have something to report. He hurriedly walked in with his head covered. He was so preoccupied that he didn't notice that Okamura Neji was practicing his sword in the yard.
It wasn't until the light of the sword flashed in front of him and he found the blade resting on his shoulder that Yumo Jingsan suddenly stopped.
"Your Excellency Commander..."
Youmo Seizan was shocked. Commander, you won't cut yourself off, right?
"You Mojun, why are you so absent-minded?"
Okamura Neji asked expressionlessly while putting the general's sword back into its scabbard.
"Report to the commander." Youmo Jingsan wiped his forehead and snorted coldly. Just as he was about to speak, the communications staff hurried in.
"Your Excellency, Commander!" the communications staff officer quickly ran to Okamura Neiji, and immediately reported, "The communications department has just received an urgent call from the armored train Chasing the Wind, the heavy artillery regiment..." Lan
At this point, the communications staff officer suddenly stopped and glanced at Yumo Seizo who was standing next to him.
You Mojing understood in three seconds and hurriedly said to Okamura Neji: "Your Excellency, Commander, I will step aside."
"Youmo Jun, you are the deputy chief of staff of the North China Front Army. There is no need to avoid it."
"What did you just say happened to the Heavy Artillery Regiment?"
However, Okamura Neji waved his hand, called Yusu Seizo, and then looked at the communications staff officer and asked.
From the communication staff's expression and words, Okamura Neji realized that the convoy was probably in trouble, but he still did not panic.
The communications staff officer said in a deep voice: "The heavy artillery convoy of the 1st Regiment was ambushed by the Eighth Route Army 30 kilometers northeast of Datong. There were at least 7,000 people on the Eighth Route. The Qifeng armored train has been destroyed!"
"Nani?" Okamura Neji's expression changed and he said in a deep voice, "What did you say? The heavy artillery convoy was ambushed by 7,000 people from the Eighth Route Army?"
Next to him, Yumo Seizan also cast an incredulous look.
Didn't the heavy artillery convoy arrive in Datong two days ago? How could it be ambushed 30 kilometers northeast of Datong?
If you want to encounter an ambush, you should also encounter an ambush in the southwest, on the way to the battlefield in northwest Shanxi.
"Hi!" the communications staff officer said affirmatively, "the heavy artillery convoy was ambushed by at least 7,000 soldiers!"
Okamura Neiji's face turned even darker. According to the Eighth Route Army's tactics of leaving reserves and troops behind for reinforcements, the total strength would probably be about 10,000.
This is already the strength of one division. I am afraid that the situation of the heavy artillery regiment and the 3rd infantry regiment is not good.
"Go to the War Room!"
Okamura Neiji turned around and walked towards the operations hall, followed by Sue Seizo and the communications staff officer.
Although Mo Jingsan had doubts in his heart, he was sensible and did not ask any more questions.
Arriving at the operations hall, Okamura Neiji immediately asked the combat staff to lay out a combat map. The communications staff walked to the map and pointed at it twice.
"Commander, the location where the heavy artillery regiment was ambushed is here!"
Okamura Neji, Arisu Seizo, and several combat staff immediately looked at the map.
"Miaoergou!?"
Okamura Neiji looked at the communications staff officer: "Order the Locust Army troops in Datong and Gaoyang to rush to the rescue of the 2nd Heavy Artillery Regiment immediately. The Heavy Artillery Regiment must not cause any trouble!"
"Hi!"
The communications staff officer turned around and left quickly.
Looking at the back of the communications staff officer leaving, Okamura Neji's expression and eyes were a little uncertain.
The heavy artillery convoy was ambushed 30 kilometers away from Datong?
Needless to say, Okamura Neiji knew that the information about the Heavy Artillery Regiment must have been leaked again. The Eighth Route Army used a division of troops, which must be directed at the Heavy Artillery Regiment and the 3rd Infantry Regiment.
But how is this possible? Lan
Only a handful of people knew the departure time of the Heavy Artillery Regiment and the 3rd Infantry Regiment from Zhangjiakou, not even the Deputy Chief of Staff Yumo Seizo.
How was the information leaked?
Who is the spy lurking in the North China Front Army Headquarters?
"idiot!"
In the end, Okamura Neji, who couldn't think of any clues, had to curse bitterly.
