A woman's sympathy is always stronger than that of a man. Because of Tian Xiangyang's relationship, the two paratroopers also gained a certain status in Zheng Tiemiao's heart. Therefore, when the two paratroopers appeared again, Zheng Tiemiao You will be so surprised that you lose your temper.
Compared with her, Zhao Gongyu was focused on another aspect. It was not that he had never encountered the power of Japanese mortar salvoes. Knowing that there was no way to survive such a salvo, he couldn't help but wonder how the two paratroopers escaped. What about this calamity?
"Is there a cave under the sentry tower?" he asked, looking at Tian Xiangyang.
Tian Xiangyang had just made two gestures to Luo Jinming, and when he heard this, he said: "Where did the cave come from?"
"Then how did they escape?"
"quilt."
"Quilt," Zhao Gongyu suddenly realized and sighed: "You must have put the quilt under it. It's amazing."
Tian Xiangyang smiled reservedly and said: "It's not a miracle. For an excellent Langya, being good at using everything around him is a basic skill."
"Now I finally know why Langya has gained such a great reputation."
Tian Xiangyang had no intention of continuing on this topic and reminded: "Old Zhao, get ready to take action."
"The Japanese are about to launch a massive attack."
"If there are pursuers later, this is their only choice. However, I will give them a hard time."
So far, only three paratroopers have appeared, but they have killed no less than twenty Japanese. This naturally made Harem Chun angry. As the blocking troops behind sent a message, they said that they could not stop the Chinese pursuers. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Stop testing, the whole army is pressing on you."
During the continuous shooting of the Japs, the slings of the suspension bridge were finally interrupted and the suspension bridge fell. Just as the Japs in front cheered and roared and rushed up to the suspension bridge, mortars came from the military camp in the Liushui Town stronghold. The sound of gunfire.
At this time, Harem Chun had rushed to the front line to take command personally. Hearing the sound of mortars, he immediately concluded that the defenders wanted to blow up the suspension bridge. So, just when his Japanese soldiers on the suspension bridge were about to rush forward and escape, , he waved his command sword and shouted: "Everyone stop, don't leave the suspension bridge, all for the sake of the empire, long live His Majesty the Emperor."
The mortars of Luo Jinming Company were captured from the Shimamoto Brigade. Tian Xiangyang hid a total of six mortars in the military camp so that they could be used at critical times. In the first salvo, three of the six grenades missed, and three of them missed. The middle suspension bridge.
Amidst the loud rumbling sound, the suspension bridge and the Japanese near the suspension bridge were blown to pieces with blood and flesh, and the screams were heard. Seeing the tragic sight of the Japanese, Zhao Gongyu and Zheng Tiemiao felt happy in their hearts, and the former even waved his fist. Cheers in a low voice: "Well done."
Compared with them, Tian Xiangyang's face showed no joy. He said softly: "I didn't expect to meet such a ruthless person."
Not hearing what he said clearly, Zheng Tiemiao asked: "What."
Tian Xiangyang first made a gesture to Luo Jinming, and then said: "Don't you see, the Japanese commander is using human shields to protect the suspension bridge."
Zheng Tiemiao was startled when he heard this, while Zhao Gongyu made a surprised expression and said, "I asked why the Japanese didn't escape. It turns out it was, Lao Tian, our opponent is not simple."
"You must be in a hurry, let's go."
After paying the price of about thirty people, the Japanese army successfully defended the suspension bridge. Perhaps they were stimulated by the tragic scene on the suspension bridge. The Japanese who rushed across the suspension bridge had extremely ferocious expressions. Facing the strafing fire of the two paratroopers, they did not show any signs of fear. He refused to let me go and just used the human wall tactic to push him over.
Tian Xiangyang saw a paratrooper being killed by intensive Japanese fire, and the life or death of another paratrooper was unknown. He straightened up from his hiding place, shouted: "Brothers, kill." Then he rushed forward at the lead.
An excellent commander must be able to accurately judge the battlefield situation and make tactical adjustments. Tian Xiangyang, who was born in Langya, belongs to this category. The Japanese army has suffered consecutive blows and should have been in low morale. However, the Japanese army's current performance is exactly the opposite. Then There are only two possibilities, either their commander's skills are very good, or they are rebounding from heavy losses, and no matter which situation is, they cannot be allowed to develop, otherwise, once the Japanese army seizes control of the battlefield, Quan, it will be too difficult for the defenders who are at a disadvantage in terms of strength to make a comeback.
The morale of the Japanese army was high, but the defenders had been building momentum for a long time. As soon as the two sides came into contact, sparks flew out.
In this counterattack launched by Tian Xiangyang, the paratroopers were of course the absolute main force. In order to give full play to the role of Luo Jinming Company, Tian Xiangyang chose to form three troops separately and put the paratroopers at the front, hoping to use them to drive the Tongliao guerrillas and the Tongliao Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army.
Tian Xiangyang grasped the timing of the counterattack very well. Due to the restrictions of the suspension bridge, the Japanese army was actually divided into two parts at this time and could not develop a strength advantage. Therefore, at the northern end of the suspension bridge, the defenders had a strength advantage.
The combat method of the paratroopers is unique. According to the usual training, they fight in groups of three. When one of them maintains shooting status, the other two are responsible for raiding the formation to snipe at a slightly farther distance. There are threatening targets everywhere. In Zhao Gongyu's opinion, their combat method is completely different from that of the Japanese army. The Japanese army charges in groups to ensure the density of firepower output, while the paratroopers pay more attention to the efficiency of firepower output.
Of the nearly a hundred paratroopers, one-third fired at the same time. Although the gunfire was not very dense, the impact was very impressive. Zhao Gongyu saw the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side suddenly falling down beside Tian Xiangyang. He was secretly stunned and watched at the same time. Xiangtian Xiangyang thought to himself: According to Lao Tian, the paratroopers are far inferior to the Langya. If the paratroopers are so good at fighting, wouldn't the Wolfya be...? I spent a long time but couldn't think of a suitable adjective. At this time, The paratrooper who was responsible for sniping the long-range firepower of the Japanese army opened fire. Zhao Gongyu followed the sound and saw that the Japanese machine gunners on the north side of the protective trench were knocked down one by one as if they were being named. He couldn't help it, so he shouted: "Okay, Well played.”
The true strength of the defenders was completely exposed. Harem Chun breathed a sigh of relief at first, but then his heart became anxious.
The defenders did not have many troops. However, because he had experienced the strength of the Chinese paratroopers in the Battle of Nong'an and knew that they were better at small-scale cooperation, his mind turned quickly and he began to consider whether to give up the attack on the Liushui Town stronghold and go directly south. withdraw.
"China paratroopers." Behind him, Ino Masahiro said with a frustrated tone.
At the north end of the suspension bridge, the Japs who had rushed forward were already fighting with the paratroopers. Harem Chun looked around and saw that the soldiers around him did not panic because the true strength of the defenders was exposed. He thought to himself: "A truly strong army. They were all tempered in the flames of war, and today may be a historical day for the Third Front Army."
