At this time, the racecourse was in complete silence.
Due to the arrival of the Chaoxian Division, the entire racecourse now had nearly 40,000 people.
The Shiochen Division is a brigade, the Momotaro Division is a mixed brigade, and the Kudo Shinichi, Nikaidou Konan, Daigado Minami, and other Kunisaki detachments are one detachment plus nearly two regiments of the Imperial Alliance Army.
, and coupled with the Songshan Regiment, if it is fully staffed, there will be 50,000 people.
Of course, there were not 50,000 people at this time, but less than 40,000.
But even so, the entire racecourse was overcrowded. This little devil had a house to live in, while the Chaoxian Division and the Imperial Alliance Army had no choice but to light fires outside.
Fortunately, it was February, and the weather wasn't that cold. In addition, there were enough fires, so the Japanese soldiers wouldn't freeze to death. Some even spread grass on the ground and slept next to the fires.
puff!
However, at this moment, a Japanese sentry located northeast of the racecourse was stabbed in the back.
The sharp steel knife penetrated his heart, and the Japs just wanted to scream, but a big hand covered his mouth.
The little Japanese struggled for a moment and then stopped moving. He was dragged away by a Chinese soldier wearing a uniform of the Central Army.
At the same time, a little old man, about fifty years old, appeared in the officer uniform of a major and battalion commander.
He tilted his hat and looked into the racecourse with a telescope.
"How's Snoring?"
At this moment, another middle-aged man in his thirties, also with the rank of major battalion commander, appeared next to Lao Snoring. He was the best gunner in the supervisory corps - Sun Shiyu.
Sun Shiyu and Lao Shou were worried after receiving the order, so they came in person. And their actions were approved by Duanwu. After all, their arrival was not just a surprise attack, but they could also conduct investigation.
Lao Shou was conducting reconnaissance at this time. He held a telescope and carefully observed every part of the racecourse.
After a while, Lao Shou sighed: "Old Sun, there are a lot of Japs this time, probably much more than what the intelligence said. We are going to ambush them. Think about it, are we ambushing them, or are we going to kill them?"
ah?"
Sun Shiyu had also used binoculars for reconnaissance before, so he also had a general understanding of the Japs in the racecourse. He said to Lao Shou: "You are right, there are so many Japanese and puppet troops, if we want to ambush, I'm afraid
It will turn into a chase battle. Even if we successfully ambush and kill thousands of the opponent's people, we will be chased all over the mountain by tens of thousands of others."
Lao Shou said: "Yes, everyone is still like a god. Let's take a look. Otherwise, if this battle starts, how much loss will we suffer?"
Sun Shiyu nodded and said, "Yes, then where should we bomb next?"
Lao Shou thought for a while and said: "We are bringing grenade launchers this time. Even if we find the little devil's arsenal, it will be useless. The grenade shells cannot penetrate the wall of the warehouse, so they can only scare the little devil."
Devil.
What's more, the leader said, shoot wherever there are a lot of people. Look outside the racecourse, aren't they all people? Look, there are little Japs over there. Let's blow them up and kill every one of them.
Hahaha!"
"Yes, let's do it!"
Sun Shiyu responded, but little did they know that those little Japs were there. Even the Japs sentries they killed were also Chaoxian Japs.
But Sun Shiyu and Lao Shou didn't know, so they regarded each other as little devils.
And there were swarms of little devils staying in the wilderness.
Let's put it this way, with one shot, seven or eight little devils will definitely be killed.
What's more, there is also Sun Shiyu, and this time he brought with him all the elites from the artillery camp.
Each person has one grenade launcher, a total of sixteen grenade launchers, plus sixteen ammunition carriers, so let’s do it!
There was no test firing because there was no need for it. There were little Japs everywhere and any one would kill a few of them.
So, all! After several muffled blasts, the shells flew silently towards the Chaoxian Division in the racecourse.
Most of this Chaoxian division is sleeping.
Because there are more than 30,000 troops, as long as it is not the enemy's troops of several divisions, who dares to stroke the tiger's beard?
But precisely, there was such a surprise attack team that penetrated through the gaps in the Japanese defense line.
In other words, the little devil had made preparations, but with Momotaro around, how could he not be prepared for a sneak attack by the enemy?
But Momotaro was guarding against large armies and did not pay attention to small groups at all. Who is stupid? Using dozens of people to fight tens of thousands? Isn't this crazy?
But maybe Momotaro has forgotten that Dragon Boat Festival is a madman, and a very crazy kind. He will use a small force to poke the hornet's nest.
As a result, all of a sudden, the Chaoxian Division's headquarters suddenly exploded all over the place, and horrific explosions occurred one after another.
The two Chaoxian Japs were blown away one by one, and their screams could not be heard.
The Chao Xian Japanese officer shouted that the enemy was under attack, but he didn't even know where the enemy was.
Because the supervision team used a grenade, the sound when it was fired was extremely low. And when it was released under the cover of the explosion, the sound was even less audible.
And this is also the reason why Duanwu chooses to use grenades instead of mortars.
Mortars are not only heavy and inconvenient to carry, but also make a loud sound when fired, making it easy for the enemy to detect the firing position.
But the grenades are different. This small artillery makes almost no sound after being fired. So it is a sharp weapon when used at night.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, grenade launchers were used many times to surprise the enemy, and the Japanese were unable to even find the north.
The Chaoxian Division lost more than 200 casualties in an instant, and this number is still increasing.
Sun Shiyu used a rapid-fire method. After the first bombing, there was almost no need to re-adjust the muzzle, and he could just load the grenade.
This is also a common method of rapid fire. The artillery does not move. Based on the vibration of the artillery after firing and the amount of gunpowder in the shell, without human intervention, the enemy position will be bombarded continuously.
That's why veterans often say that two shells rarely fall into one crater.
Of course, this is not absolute, because no one can say clearly about probability.
But it is undeniable that the probability of two such shells falling into a crater is extremely low.
Therefore, Sun Shiyu's continuous rapid fire directly covered the area of nearly an infantry brigade of the Chaoxian Division.
All the Japs were within Sun Shiyu's fire coverage.
At this time, the Chaoxian Division was completely panicked. No one could be found, but the shells continued to fall. They were looking at a large group that was about to be completely wiped out.
The Chaoxian Japs had no choice but to send people to find Prince Li Cheng and ask him to think of a solution.
But at this time, Prince Li Cheng was still admiring the pillow. He drank too much, and in his dream he was dreaming that he had wiped out the entire supervisory team and was awarded the General Medal of the Empire of Japan!
