Chapter 349 Plum Blossom Tower (1)

Bei Chuan's angry roar was not only angry at the loss of three elite soldiers of the imperial army before firing their guns, but also a curse at the sunken interception line in front of him.

The depression in front of me is seventy to eighty centimeters deep, three meters long across the board, and one meter lower and lower.

Focusing the eyes on the cliff above the head carefully, it seems that there are still many depressions like the one in front of me, and they become interception lines scattered irregularly throughout the cliff.

"Your Excellency Beichuan, the depressions on the cliffs look incredible. How did the Chongqing army do it?"

It wasn't just this old devil who expressed his feelings, other devils who climbed up had similar expressions on their faces.

The Chongqing army has been stationed in Meiling for only two months so far, and the entire main peak of Meiling has been turned into a cluster of bunkers and sunken roads by the Chongqing army, which is really surprising.

Digging these steep slopes is actually not as incredible as these ghosts imagined. Li Chong asked the officers and soldiers to pour fuel oil on the branches and burn the rocks for several hours. The knowledge of directional blasting learned by Huangpu, under the addition of various factors, greatly reduced the workload of excavating these irregularly distributed depressions.

"Baga Road, the Chongqing army on the mountain is really omnipotent."

Bei Chuan squatted in the depression in front of him, and he wanted to smoke a cigarette in his heart. The mines in the depression had been triggered, so this depression was safe and just gave him a place to rest.

But there is a thorny problem, that is, how to go up.

The height of this depression is about one meter lower. During the climbing process, half of the body is volleying in the air, and the feet will not find any stress points.

If you want to avoid these depressions, you have to climb a curved line on the cliff, because Araki visually observes that the depressions on the top of his head are seven horizontal and eight vertical, and it is impossible to climb vertically.

Bei Chuan was troubled by the problems before him. In fact, he should be thankful, because the sound of a landmine explosion just now was covered by the constant gunfire in the east, and Li Chong and everyone on the stone gate were also focused on the east road. , otherwise they would have to face the muzzle that appeared on the mountainside.

At this moment, in front of the first fort at an altitude of more than 30 meters on the East Road, although the entire fortress and the other two bunkers under its jurisdiction work together to block the devils facing the frontier bunker, the 80-meter offensive line from the foot of the mountain to the frontier bunker is too short. After the puppet army devils were willing to leave layers of corpses on the uphill road and the hillsides on both sides, finally some devil pioneers ran and rolled to the shooting hole of the bunker.

The soldier who threw the grenade on the top of the bunker had already seen it, but just as he leaned over and dropped the grenade vertically, he was hit by a bullet from the front of the bunker, and he fell straight down.But the long-handled grenade that fell vertically exploded, blowing the devils who were leaning against the firing holes of the bunker to pieces.

"There are too many people, I can't hold it anymore, everyone evacuates from the tunnel!"

Neither of the two machine guns could stop the devils and puppet troops swarming up. The two squad leaders immediately ordered to retreat. The value of the two light machine guns in their hands was far greater than the loss of a bunker.

Immediately, the two squad leaders jumped down from the second floor of the bunker with their light machine guns in their hands, quickly lifted the wooden cover of the tunnel on the first floor, and quickly jumped inside. The tunnels could only be descended one by one. A soldier jumped into the tunnel with the remaining half box of grenades.

A landmine on the top of the bunker just now could only block it for a moment. Before the last three soldiers had time to jump into the bunker, a round landmine was thrown in by the devil in the shooting hole.

There was an explosion without any suspense, and the three soldiers who were too late to enter the tunnel were killed in an instant in the airtight bunker.

"Eh!"

The squad leader who was shot on his right shoulder in the tunnel sighed after hearing the explosion in the bunker. The three people who hadn’t entered the tunnel must be out of action. After putting the machine gun on his uninjured left shoulder, he wanted to move forward. .

There were a total of twenty people before and after, and at this moment only three people were left.

The soldier carrying the remaining half box of grenades behind took out two grenades, and was about to blow up the rafts supporting the sides of the tunnel entrance, so that the devils would not be able to attack along the tunnel later.

As soon as the grenade was pulled out, the squad leader who was shot in the shoulder stopped when he looked back, "Don't explode, if there are devils coming down later, I will call them with a machine gun!"

Above the regiment's stone gate.

Condescendingly, Li Chong saw through the binoculars that the most forward bunkers on the mountain road had been captured by densely packed devils and puppet troops. After assessing the pressure on the four fortresses, he decided to dispatch the whole regiment's artillery to support them.

"Order the mortar platoon officers and soldiers of Fort No. [-] and [-]. All mortars will support Fort No. [-]! In addition, the heavy machine guns dispatch a machine gun team, with the pheasant neck of the bunker on the left side of the regiment headquarters, freely choose the shooting point to support No. [-] fortress."

Next to the front bunker of the No. [-] East Road Fortress that the devils conquered.

After the grenade exploded inside the bunker, first two puppet soldiers and a devil burst in from the small door behind the bunker with a gun. While searching around to check the corpses, they stepped on a wooden board at the corner of the bunker, making an empty sound, When it was opened, a dark hole was revealed.

The devil immediately ran out to report, "Taijun, there is a tunnel under this bunker!"

At this time, Captain Guizi was directing the troops to continue to attack, while dispatching personnel to occupy this bunker that had been conquered with huge casualties. Now this bunker will become the fortress of the imperial army.

Hearing the report that there was actually a tunnel in the bunker, Captain Guizi walked into the bunker, knelt down on one knee with his command saber in hand, looked at the entrance of the black cave with his head, nodded his head and said, "Yaoxi, this must be the way to Chongqing. A tunnel somewhere in the army, some of you go down and test if this tunnel has been damaged!"

The captain of the ghost squad directly assigned five devils to go down the tunnel, and he didn't let the imperial association army go down because he attached great importance to this tunnel. The lower left and upper right sides of the bunker are supported by bunker bullets, and the casualties of the upward charge are unpredictable.

That's the Plum Blossom Fortress!

The standard firepower of the upper and lower three layers, not to mention that it is difficult to get close, even if it is close, it will be difficult to deal with the explosive packs of ordinary bunkers. None of the grenades can blow up the soldiers on the second floor.

The time-consuming and expensive materials needed to build this kind of Plum Blossom Fortress are enough to build three to five ordinary fortresses. The leader of the devil squad, who knows that it is not easy to attack, wants to find a more efficient way. Now this tunnel in front of him has brought him some fantasy.
