Chapter 4: All-out War of Resistance (four heavy losses)
Renqiu's air defense matters have been carried out since Ouyang Yun took over. Taking advantage of the favorable terrain of the North China Plain, the current Renqiu should actually be counted as two cities, one of which is on the surface and the other is underground. , among them, the underground city composed of important military industrial enterprises such as oil refineries, arsenals, and field hospitals is more than 20 meters deep underground. The tunnels are all reinforced with cement and steel bars. Tunnel construction is undoubtedly labor-intensive and time-consuming. Just now. At first, except for Ouyang Yun's insistence, no one, including Li Tieshu and Jiang Shuren, objected. However, just after yesterday's meeting, everyone had to give Ouyang Yun's far-sighted thumbs up again. Among them, the extroverted Si Turn regarded him as an idol,
Perhaps it was because of this role model that after receiving the combat mission, Stern led the entire brigade to carry out civil engineering work on the brigade's air defense position, digging out some of the original underground tunnels, and Hundreds of hidden entrances and exits were made, turning the vicinity of the old camp of the Xuebing Army into a rat's nest.
Stern took the lead in getting into the tunnel, adjusted his helmet, found a wide place to sit with his back to the wall, lit a cigarette and took two puffs, and said to the guard Polaiski beside him: "The Japanese are really rich. , dispatching so many planes at one time." As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the plane's motor suddenly approached again, and then the sound of bombs breaking through the air was heard. He hurriedly took the cigarette in his hand and shouted: "Japanese The bombing started, everyone opened their mouths and sat against the wall."
Polaski and others had just heard the words and sat down, when there was a "boom", followed by a violent explosion, and the entire tunnel suddenly trembled, sand rustled down, and fell all over them with a pop. An explosion was just the beginning. Then, with the sound of continuous explosions, the entire tunnel began to tremble on a large scale. The soil on the roof of some caves could not bear the shaking and fell in chunks. It seemed as if there was a rain of mud in the tunnel. Same,
This violent explosion lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Later, there was a continuous sound of bullets and machine gun fire.
After the explosion stopped, Stern shook his helmet, grabbed a rifle and ran toward the cave entrance.
They were lucky. The cover at the entrance of the cave had not been blown away. Looking at the entire position, there were very few people who were as lucky as them. Ninety percent of the hundreds of hidden shooting openings in the independent brigade were bombed. The original shape has been revealed, and now the targets of Japanese planes' dive and strafing attacks are precisely these tunnels and air-raid shelters that have lost their cover and have not been visited by bombs.
Not far from where Stern and the others were hiding, a Japanese plane roared past, leaving two deep plow marks along the way. The tracks plowed by these two machine gun bullets extended into the air raid shelter. , and plowed through the floating soil on the roof of the air raid shelter, causing one death and two injuries to the soldiers hiding inside.
"Damn it, shoot, shoot." Grabbing the walkie-talkie with one hand, Stern shouted loudly. The next moment, the Jew who was not afraid of death stood directly at the entrance of the hole with his rifle, shining brightly at the retreating plane. After receiving a box of bullets, he was dragged into the tunnel by his men until the battle was over.
In fact, there was no need for him to give orders at all. When their lives were threatened, many soldiers from the Jewish Independence Brigade took the initiative to greet them. Most of them held a machine gun alone and a bullet chain, chasing the ones closest to them. The Japanese plane flying at low altitude suddenly pulled the trigger, and most of them were hit by bombs or bullets just as they pointed their guns at the enemy plane. Some of them did not even fire a single shot. and fell down,
The Japanese bombed and strafed this outer position for more than 20 minutes. In this short period of time, the 341 Jewish soldiers and 171 Jewish soldiers of the Independent Brigade participated in the air defense station. In the end, only more than 70 local fighters survived, and the results they gained with their lives and blood were pitiful. They only shot down three enemy planes and damaged two in total, including the one at the beginning. two,
The Japanese plane finally flew away, and Stern finally broke free from the hold of the guards and was able to walk out of the tunnel.
The entire position was in a mess at this time, the trees were burning, the ground was full of pits, there were tunnels that had been blown down, and some damaged machine gun parts were scattered everywhere. In direct proportion to this, the soldiers of the independent brigade were Corpses. Seeing that the lively men with yellow or black hair in the past were now silent corpses, Stern's eyes began to slowly fill with tears. Before that, he was worried that his soldiers had not arrived. He had never seen blood and would have fled under such a blow. Now, they used blood to tell him how ridiculous and stupid his worries were.
Sitting on a piece of soil that was yellowed by smoke, lighting a cigarette with some trembling, Stern thought dullly: "Why is this happening? Our air defense fortifications have been done well enough..."
An hour later, Ouyang Yun arrived at the scene. At this time, the sacrificed soldiers had been gathered together, and their young faces had been wiped clean of dust, as clean as when they came into this world. Upon hearing this news, Ouyang Yun's heart ached violently, and he cursed: "Didn't this Stern receive my order? This is how he preserves his strength."
Now, seeing the remains of these soldiers, his anger was ignited again. He grabbed Stern by the collar and roared: "Why is this happening? Didn't you receive my order, Stern? You are taking human life lightly, do you know that?"
"Military seat, I am willing to take all responsibilities." Stern whispered,
"What the hell, grandma, I really want to kill you with one shot." Ouyang Yun was really angry. He hadn't said this for an unknown amount of time. This hooligan's habit seems to have persisted in the Peking Massacre. It only exists in the Black Dragon Society branch. "There are more than four hundred brothers, and they are all machine gunners. How many people do you have in total in your brigade?"
Ouyang Yun was still roaring, and Pan Meiren came over. She was far away and shouted a report: "Report to the military seat, there is a call from the early warning post ahead, the second wave of Japanese fighters is coming again."
Ouyang Yun took two heavy breaths, glared at Stern, waved his hand and said: "Sound the alarm, reiterate my order, preserve your strength first, masturbate second." After thinking about it, he felt uneasy. He said: "I will personally call Deputy Commander Zhang. You should quickly get the bodies of the brothers down and hide them. Also, everyone should quickly find an air-raid shelter to hide. Stern, you have written this down first. Now, take the brothers with you." Let’s go back to our campsite and stay there.”
