When crossing the gasoline-soaked zone, Hattori Heijiro smelled a strong smell of gasoline, but he didn't pay attention. He only said that the Chinese knocked over the oil drum while transporting oil, causing the gasoline to leak, so there was this smell. Hattori Heijiro Unexpectedly, he was leading his troops into a death trap.
We really can't blame Hattori Heijiro for being careless.
Who would have thought that the Independent Brigade would build an almost perfect death trap in such a short period of time? What's more, Muto Akira's order to Hattori Heijiro was to rush to Huilonggou in the shortest possible time and to preserve the military supplies on the military column at all costs, which naturally included sacrificing the entire Hattori brigade.
A huge convoy consisting of fifteen trucks and nineteen three-wheeled motorcycles approached the military column in a mighty manner, and finally stopped along the road. When the Hattori brigade set off from Fengyang Town, there were fifteen trucks Twenty-six tricycles were added, but seven of them were blown up by the Second Squadron of the Independent Brigade on the way.
However, the remaining vehicles are enough to transport the main force of Hattori Brigade to Huilonggou.
As soon as the truck stopped, Heijiro Hattori opened the door and jumped out of the car.
Hattori Heijiro is not unaware of the power of the Independence Brigade. He even knows that there are several very powerful snipers in the Independence Brigade. However, he does not take it seriously. It is night now. If the Chinese snipers can accurately hit hundreds of people at night, If the target is a few meters away, then he will recognize it.
The convoy drove into the ambush circle one after another, and stopped one after another. One after another, the Japanese soldiers jumped from the truck compartment and from the three-wheeled motorcycles. However, they quickly lay down on the spot, and the little devil's tactical literacy was still there. Yes, after getting off the truck, they did not rush towards the military column in a swarm. Instead, they immediately lay down and waited for the commander's order.

"Don't shoot. Listen carefully. Pay attention to my orders!"
Because he was too nervous, Huang Shouxin's voice became a little trembling, and even the right hand holding the gun was trembling slightly. After all, Huang Shouxin was still young. Although he had observed the battle of Shaqiao Gang at close range last time, his student team They have not participated in actual combat, so today is the first time that their student team has participated in a real actual combat.
Huang Shouxin was extremely nervous. Fortunately, he did not forget the order and did not open the nose of the box gun, otherwise it might really misfire.
Compared to Huang Shouxin, the soldiers in the county brigade were much calmer.
The soldiers of the county brigade used to be members of the Meizhen Security Group. Although the Meizhen Security Group did not have much combat effectiveness, the training has always been very good. Apart from anything else, at least things like fire accidents basically did not happen, and they had to Fortunately, Wang Husheng left the county brigade behind, and replaced it with the newly formed district squads. When the Japanese marched into the ambush circle just now, the militiamen who were not even skilled with guns opened fire directly.
If this is the case, He Shuya's drama will be ruined.
"Don't shoot, hold on, hold still." Huang Shouxin lowered his voice, constantly reminding the soldiers around him, while looking nervously at the other side of the Laolong River, his heart was already hanging inadvertently, why? What's going on? The Japanese have already entered the ambush circle. Why doesn't Shuya give the order
Huang Shouxin didn't know that it was because he was too nervous that he felt that time passed extremely slowly. In fact, although the first half of the Japanese convoy had entered the ambush circle, the second half of the army was still outside the ambush circle. This If you fire in a hurry, the effect will inevitably be greatly reduced, and it is entirely possible to even fail.
"Shoot, shoot quickly!" Huang Shouxin was so anxious that he muttered something, wishing He Shuya could give the order immediately.
Compared with Huang Shouxin, although He Shuya is only seventeen years old, he is already a veteran who has been in the army for six years. He has even experienced a real test of life and death. At that time in the Likou jungle, if Xu Rui had not saved him in time, he would have died. He was preparing to die with the Japanese with a grenade, so He Shuya had to be much calmer.
It wasn't until the last Japanese truck crossed the gasoline-soaked zone that He Shuya, who was hiding in the rotating turret at the rear of the truck, finally raised the large mirror box in his hand and fired a shot into the sky.
The sound of gunshots was an order. After hearing the order, the county brigade immediately opened fire at the same time.
In an instant, the officers and soldiers of the county brigade ambushing on the right side of the railway track and on the left bank of the Laolong River also opened fire. The sudden and violent blow immediately caused unexpected casualties to the unprepared Japs. However, the little Japs were not slow to react and fell down quickly. , relying on the cover of vehicles, started shooting with the county brigade militia.
(Dividing line)
Almost as soon as the gunfire rang out, Hattori Heijiro, surrounded by several staff officers and orderlies, hid between two trucks. The two trucks provided Hattori Heijiro with excellent cover. However, the rest of Hattori's brigade The officers and soldiers were not so lucky. At best, they could only avoid threats on one side.
The only good thing is that the opponent's firepower is not strong.
Whether it is the Chinese troops hiding under the train and relying on the railway tracks, or the police on the left bank of the river, they only have a few light machine guns. Although such firepower will cause great trouble to the Japanese army, it is not enough. To pose a fatal threat, Hattori Heijiro's first reaction was not to break out, but to counterattack.
"Haga." Hattori Heijiro said angrily, "Order the 1st Squadron to seize the railroad tracks immediately."
After all, Hattori Heijiro is an old Japanese who has experienced hundreds of battles. He can see at a glance the winning hand that determines the outcome of this battle. This winning hand is the railway track. As long as the railway track on the right side of the battlefield is captured, not only the threats from the left side will suddenly Time passed, and the Chinese team on the left bank of the Laolong River no longer posed a threat.
More importantly, by seizing the railway track, the Japanese army saved the military column parked on the railway track, and by saving the military column, they also preserved the materials on the military column.
Hattori Heijiro discovered at a glance the hand that determined the outcome of this battle, and immediately ordered the 1st Infantry Squadron to attack the railway track on the right side of the battlefield. Soon, a small group of more than fifty Japanese infantrymen climbed up from the ground, turning around one by one. With his waist bent and the stabbed Sanba Gai in hand, he rushed towards the county brigade's railway position.
It was more than a hundred meters from the road where the Japanese convoy stopped to the railway position occupied by the county brigade.
Seeing more than fifty Japanese soldiers swooping over, the officers and soldiers of the county brigade who were ambushing on the railway track immediately increased their firepower. When the Japanese soldiers approached within fifty meters, the officers and soldiers of the county brigade even threw a few rows of grenades. However, This intensity of firepower was not enough to disintegrate the Japanese attack. In the final analysis, the county brigade was just a county brigade. Whether it was equipment or tactical level, it was far behind the independent brigade.
In the blink of an eye, the Japanese who were attacking were within thirty meters.
Hattori Heijiro, who was watching the battle hiding behind the hood of the truck, saw this scene, and a sneer immediately broke out at the corner of his mouth. He really didn't know whether he should praise the commander of the opposing squadron, or despise him
The opponent actually left an ambush here, which was indeed beyond his expectation. If he left an ambush with sufficient strength and firepower, it would not be impossible to severely damage or even annihilate his Hattori brigade. However, the opponent did not Only such a small force with a serious lack of strength and firepower was left, but such a great opportunity was wasted.
But soon, the smile that bloomed on Hattori Heijiro's lips solidified, because...
Just as the Japanese team that was engaged in the attack was approaching less than 30 meters away from the railway position, and was about to break into the squadron's position, five tongues of fire suddenly spewed out from one of the carriages on the military column ahead. , these five dazzling tongues of fire were like death's scythes. Wherever they swept, Japanese officers and soldiers fell to the ground one after another.
The smile on the corner of Hattori Heijiro's mouth solidified instantly.
This is... a Type 92 heavy machine gun? And a Czech light machine gun
Moreover, there were five machine guns, and the five light and heavy machine guns instantly formed a dense firepower network. Under this dense and brutal firepower network, the more than fifty Japanese soldiers who were involved in the attack seemed to be cut down in an instant. They fell down like straw, and in the time it took them to catch their breath, most of the Japanese team that went into the attack were killed or wounded.
Seeing this, the remaining dozen or so Japanese soldiers quickly turned around and retreated.
"Baga, Baga Garu." Hattori Heijiro was furious. The Japanese army's first wave of offensive was thwarted. This was completely beyond Hattori Heijiro's expectation. What made the old Japanese even more angry was that the Chinese also used military columns to These three armored carriages were originally used to deal with the Chinese, but now, unfortunately, they are being used by the Chinese to deal with them. This really echoes the old saying in China: shooting yourself in the foot.
"Muto Akira, this idiot, could he be any more stupid?" Hattori Heijiro yelled.
However, Hattori Heijiro soon lost the mood to curse, because bigger blows followed.
When the hidden firepower of the armored car in the middle was forced out by the Japanese, the hidden firepower of the two armored cars on the left and right also opened fire violently at the same time. The dense machine gun bullets were like dense raindrops in an instant, pouring on the Japanese convoy. Although the Japanese trucks and three-wheeled motorcycles can provide certain cover, they can only provide certain cover. It is absolutely impossible to provide all-round cover.
Under the intensive firepower, the Japanese casualties increased sharply.
Hattori Heijiro immediately realized the crisis. The machine guns of the Chinese army not only posed a threat to the Japanese officers and soldiers, but also posed a serious threat to the Japanese trucks and three-wheeled motorcycles. You know, the Japanese trucks and three-wheeled motorcycles , but without additional armor, it will easily malfunction once the engine or fuel tank is hit.
Once most of the trucks and three-wheeled motorcycles are destroyed, there will be big trouble.
Hattori Heijiro realized the crisis and immediately ordered: "Order, detour from both wings, then encircle the Chinese from behind, and finally kill them!" (To be continued.)
