"Speak." Battalion Commander Chang was looking at the map in the command post.
"A group of Japanese troops appeared on the Piyou River Bridge. According to observation, they should be engineering troops."
"I want to rush to repair the bridge and prepare for the frontal attack. I have expected it." Battalion Commander Tong picked up the telescope, walked out of the command post, ran to the attic on the third floor of a restaurant, opened a small window, and observed the enemy's movements.
In order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, Battalion Commander Chang had withdrawn the troops guarding the bridge back to the city. The Japanese army found that there were no Chinese troops stationed at the bridge, so they sent dozens of engineering troops to build the bridge under the cover of heavy machine guns.
.
"Adjutant Wan, go and get a dozen shooters to come over, quietly climb the city wall, and wait for my order."
"yes."
Battalion Commander Chang turned around and said to the ordering soldier next to him: "Go and bring a mortar. Set it up on the street in front and listen to my command."
"yes."
When the Japanese engineers were starting to build the bridge on the bridge pier, Adjutant Wan pointed to a few Japanese engineers on the bridge pier and said: "Brothers, don't be impatient, just aim and strike. Engineers who specialize in attacking Japanese soldiers can choose their targets freely. Listen to me."
Order, free fire."
"yes."
"Get ready to fight!"
"Bang" "bang" "bang" more than a dozen rifles fired accurately. Three minutes later, six Japanese engineers who were struggling to build a bridge on the piers were killed and fell into the Piyou River. The black blood of those Japanese
, after being rinsed by the river water, it disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"Da da da da" The Japanese knew that the bridge construction would be attacked, so the heavy machine gun mounted on the roof of the truck cab began to fire at the city wall desperately.
"Hidden, everyone, evacuate quietly." Adjutant Wan directed the brothers to quickly withdraw the city wall and hide themselves.
"Bang, bang, bang," everything was as expected. The Japanese mortars landed on the city wall, specifically blasting the rifle shooters who had just shot the Japanese engineers.
"Brothers, it's good to be with a good commander. The battalion commander asked us to withdraw as soon as the fight was over. Sure enough, it wasn't just machine gun fire. The Japanese mortars responded so quickly. If it wasn't commanded properly, we brothers might have been shot.
It was reimbursed on the city wall."
Battalion Commander Chang looked at the continuous explosions coming from the city wall, and saw that Adjutant Wan and his brothers had retreated behind the city wall to hide. He immediately said to the flag bearer beside him: "Send the signal, the scale is 500, the distance is 800, do it well
Preparing for launch."
"Yes." The signal flag bearer stood at the small window and conveyed the message to the artillerymen on the street in flag language.
After sending the signal, the flag bearer stood aside, and Battalion Commander Chang held up his binoculars to observe the Japanese engineers on the bridge.
After the Japanese engineer commander bombed the city wall with mortars, there were no enemy troops to continue shooting. With a wave of his hand, several engineers jumped off the bridge pier protected by ropes and began to repair the bridge again.
All this was clearly seen by Battalion Commander Chang, who took a small red flag from the flagman and waved it towards the mortarman on the street.
With a "boom", a shell flew out, and the "boom" explosion came, and a column of water was blown up in the river. The falling river water drenched several Japanese engineers who were repairing the bridge into drowned rats. Unexpectedly
The ground washed away the cold sweat of the Japanese engineers and soldiers.
"It's a little crooked, correct it, scale 480, distance 800, send signal." After finishing speaking, Battalion Commander Chang stepped aside.
The flag bearer stood at the small window and issued a new flag.
"Fire." Battalion Commander Chang didn't even look at it.
With a "boom" sound, the cannonball flew for a while, and then came back with a "boom" sound.
"Let me take a look," Battalion Commander Chang heard the noise and hurriedly raised his telescope to look. Several Japanese engineers and soldiers were gone. Just as it happened, some Japanese soldiers' stumps fell from the sky and fell into the river.
"Hahaha, good fight, let's go, retreat!"
As soon as Battalion Commander Chang left the window, the Japanese heavy machine guns began to fire at the small window. The bullets broke the glass and broke the window.
"I expected this, little devil, don't think you are the only ones who are smart." Battalion Commander Chang said proudly and left the restaurant.
