Chapter 130 The barracks that bombed the nest
Compared with the long and short days in summer, the short days in winter become shorter, and the night is even darker before dawn. The main force of the Avenger Camp, who fought fiercely during the day and only rested in the middle of the night, has built a three-sided blocking position outside the Japanese garrison.
Only ten minutes left before the shelling, all the soldiers involved in the battle entered the fortifications they dug and built, quietly waiting for the arrival of the shelling moment. At this time, the Japanese camp in the distance still looked very quiet.
Seeing the watch pointer jumping to the moment of shelling and looking at the nearly thirty mortars placed on the temporary artillery position, Hu Biao and all the guard platoon soldiers responsible for shelling were very excited and were looking forward to the scene during the shelling.
Hu Biao, who was only responsible for command and did not personally operate the mortar, stood in the center of the position and whispered: "The gunner is in place!"
The soldier responsible for operating the mortar immediately stepped forward and took out a shell from the shell box and half-squatted in front of the mortar. After waiting for about half a minute, Hu Biao's low voice came from his ears again: "Let it go!"
As soon as the words were finished, sparks burst into the front row of fourteen mortars instantly. Fourteen mortar shells roared toward the silent Japanese garrison two kilometers away. When the Japanese sentries saw the sparks blooming, the shells had already smashed into the camp behind them.
The continuous explosions of "Boom Boom Boom" sounded one after another, instantly breaking the silent night. The soldiers of the Avengers Camp lying on the blocking position looked at the artillery positions that kept sparking, and at the Japanese military camp shrouded in the distance.
"Hehe! So many shells are smashed down, enough for the Japanese to drink a pot. At this time, the Japanese probably are sleeping soundly!"
"Who said no? I really didn't expect that the battalion commander was so brave that he dared to attack the Japanese camp at night."
"Why don't you dare? When I was having dinner earlier, I heard the platoon leader say, "We killed and injured nearly 2,000 Japanese devils during the day. This time, there were only 3,000 Japanese devils who surrounded us!"
"Wow! You are so angry! The Japanese devils of more than 3,000 are an infantry corps. If they were to pull out all our divisions before, they might not have done it. Only Battalion Commander Hu dared to do this with great courage!"
Knowing that there should be some time before the Japanese broke through, the soldiers lying in the trenches were happy to chat. At this time, Hu Biao continued on the artillery position: "Special bullets, prepare! Let them go!"
Veterans from the guard platoon such as Xu Sandao were personally responsible for firing special bombs. As the first round of special bombs flew into the Japanese garrison, a pungent stench soon filled the Japanese military camp, which was already completely chaotic.
The Japanese devils, who were still in a state of chaos, soon smelled the stench. With the flames generated by the new round of explosions, they finally saw the object that produced the stench, a shell that was spraying poison gas outwards.
"Baga! Special bombs! The Chinese army fires special bombs! Hurry up, find a gas mask immediately, hurry up!"
As the sound of special bullets resounded throughout the military camp, the already chaotic infantry corps station was once again in a new round of chaos and panic. At this moment, Hu Biao, who was standing in the artillery position, rushed the artillery shells into the Japanese station one by one.
Fourteen mortars specifically fired ordinary shells, and twelve mortars specifically fired special shells. After three rounds of special shells were fired continuously, the entire infantry corps camp was filled with a pungent smell of stinking.
Every time a conventional shell explodes and falls to the ground, many Japanese can see it by using the sparks, and the entire camp is filled with thin yellow smoke. Even as time goes by, the yellow smoke that fills the camp looks thicker and thicker.
The infantry corps captain who was also awakened from waking up by shelling, looked at the adjutant who rushed into the tent and said angrily: "Baga! Why are you panicking? What happened? The shelling came from there?"
"His corps leader! With unknown armed forces, launching shellings about two kilometers away from the camp! In order to ensure your safety, we must retreat to a safe place. Now the camp is completely in chaos."
"Baga! What's the mess? Organize troops immediately to destroy the enemy's artillery positions. The guys who dare to launch artillery attacks at such a close distance are really brave! They are just standing there and don't convey my orders!"
"Hi!"
The reprimanded adjutant had to run out of the tent and give the order from the corps captain. But after a while, the adjutant rushed to the corps captain with a gas mask and said, "Governor Captain, the enemy fired special bullets!"
"What about Na! Special bombs? Bageya Road, how dare they use special bombs?"
In the eyes of many Japanese troops, the Anti-Japanese War rarely uses special bullets. Of course, the more the reason is that the Anti-Japanese War troops do not have special bullets in their hands. In many cases, the Japanese army is not worried that the Anti-Japanese War troops will use special bullets.
As for the National Government protesting to the League of Nations against the Japanese army's use of banned special bombs, the League of Nations still could not control the Japanese army that had already withdrawn from the League of Nations until then. When it was time to use special bombs, the Japanese army was still not ruthless at all.
This time it was their turn to taste the taste of special bullets, and the infantry corps captain was also full of worry. Thinking of the baggage corps that were severely injured earlier, the infantry corps captain was also worried that his troops would repeat the mistakes of the baggage corps.
"Quick! Let the soldiers wear gas masks immediately, organize troops immediately, and destroy the artillery positions outside!"
"Hi!"
When the adjutant finally organized a Japanese squadron wearing a gas mask and ran in the direction of the sound of artillery. He was standing on the temporary blocking position, Xu Mingzhi also said: "Prepare for battle, the Japanese are coming!"
The soldiers who were watching the fun raised their guns and pointed them at the Japanese who were rushing towards them. Because they were at the forefront, they didn't have to worry about mustard gas blowing to them, so it was more convenient to fight.
On the other hand, if the Japanese who came against the wind wanted to rush to the artillery position where Hu Biao was, they had to rush through the area filled with yellow smoke. Wearing a gas mask, each Japanese soldier was panting and felt that it became more and more difficult to breathe.
When Hu Biao saw the Japanese rushing out of the camp through the telescope, he immediately ordered: "Er Shuan, pillar, shoot two shells to light the soldiers on the position, and reduce the pressure on the soldiers!"
"Yes, battalion commander!"
Huang Ershuan and Tian Tiezhu, who were by Hu Biao, moved the shells at hand without saying a word and stuffed them into the barrel. When the two shells landed, two sparks quickly exploded in the Japanese offensive formation that rushed out of the military camp.
The Japanese captain who led the team to attack saw the soldiers killed by the bombing and suddenly realized that they had run out of the poison gas area. He immediately said: "Take off the gas mask, there is no poison gas here! Hurry up, keep rushing forward, don't let the attacker run away!"
He reached out and took off the gas mask covering his head and neck, and found that there was really no smell in the air he was inhaled. All the Japanese were instantly excited. Knowing that they rushed against the wind, they decisively rushed out of the poisonous air zone.
The Japanese, who had already felt difficulty breathing, suddenly felt like they were injected with chicken blood. They ignored the shelling of Huang Ershuan and Tian Tiezhu, and rushed towards the artillery position with Cairo. At this time, countless guns were already aimed at the Japanese Japanese, who were injecting chicken blood.
When these Japanese guys entered the range of machine guns, Xu Mingzhi immediately ordered: "Machine gun, fire!"
The cheerful machine guns spit out flames and swept the Japanese running wildly like mowing grass. The Japanese rushing in front were shot and screamed and fell to the ground. The Japanese sergeant who followed him immediately braked and quickly fell to the ground.
The Japanese who was lucky enough to escape the machine gun fire said in disbelief: "Baga! How is this possible? Are we surrounded? The enemy actually built a blocking fortification outside our camp. How is this possible?"
With the sparks of machine guns, it is not difficult for the Japanese to charge to find that the machine guns are all placed on trenches. This shows that in front of the artillery positions, the attackers had built a fortification. And their sentinels did not notice it at all.
"Ono-kun, quickly return to the camp and inform the wing captain about this situation! The rest of the people followed me to the left and tried to avoid the machine guns of the blockers. The grenade team should set up grenade launchers on the spot to destroy the enemy's machine gun positions!"
After finally escaping from the camp, the Japanese captain led the team really didn't want to return to the military camp where the poisonous air was full of energy. But he knew that he had to inform the corps leader of this situation so that the large troops preparing to break through knew that there were a large number of ambushers in front of the military camp.
Knowing that there are many machine guns in front, it is difficult to get close to the opponent's blocking position when launching a charge directly. Compared to them, they can only lie on the ground and don't have too many things to cover in front of them, but the machine gunners responsible for blocking have trenches as cover.
With the flames formed by the explosion of the shells, Xu Mingzhi, who was commanding the troops to block the attack, soon saw the Japanese erecting grenade launchers in an open space in front of them, and then said: "Li Zhibin, raise the grenade launchers we brought!"
"Yes! Grenadier, come with me!"
When they came out of the mountain earlier, each company formed a grenade squad. Although the soldiers selected were not as good as the Japanese invaders. However, when setting up grenade trolleys, they could still threaten the Japanese invaders' grenades, making it impossible for Japanese invaders to fire grenades calmly.
The Japanese grenades were the first to fire, and the grenades fired onto the blocking position and sparked. Many machine gun positions were instantly silent, and the Japanese who were suppressed in the open land also felt shocked.
But for the soldiers of the Third Company and Fourth Company who were responsible for blocking, when they saw the machine gunner injured by the blow, the deputy machine gunner next to them quickly took over. They found tools to strengthen the flat and collapsed machine gun positions, and then quickly set up the machine gun again.
The grenade squad behind the blocking position also began to throw grenades at the Japanese. The Japanese, who were very excited before, instantly felt that there were many more shells falling above their heads. Even the small grenades were still powerful.
The worst thing is that the more grenades hit their team, the more Japanese exposed to the fire. Every time the Japanese exposed to the fire, they instantly became the target of machine gunners on the blocking positions.
Apart from lying on the ground, the Japanese did not dare to get up casually. Because together, countless bullets whizzing past their heads might penetrate into their bodies. Once they were hit by bullets, the outcome would be self-evident!
