Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 273 The Power of the Mine Array
The three trenches on the north bank are semicircular in shape. The first trench is set more than [-] meters away from the river, and each trench is separated by two or three miles.

In order not to be discovered by the Japanese army, a large number of weeds were transplanted to the front of the trench, and bushes were used to cover it, and each soldier wore a woven straw hat.

The Zhanghe Bridge is about 800 meters long and 5.2 meters wide, and the bridge deck is about 12 meters above the water.

Zhou Weihan arranged a regiment of heavy machine guns on the Zhanghe Bridge, equipped with twelve Type [-] heavy machine guns.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly.

Before the war, the entire battlefield was full of chills.

"Company commander, why hasn't the little devil come here? We won't be spotted by the little devil on the bridge, right?" asked a soldier of the heavy machine gun company on the bridge.

"Bullshit, the front is blocked by gravel, lie down and stay still, can the little devil see something?"

"What's the matter, Er Bangzi, are you scared?" Shi Desheng, the commander of the heavy machine gun company, glanced at the thin Er Bangzi and said.

"Who is cowarding? Whoever coaxes who is a bastard!" Er Bangzi's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said with his neck stuck.

Shi Desheng has a beard around his chin, even if he is lying on the bridge, it is not difficult to see that he is tall.

Erbangzi's original name was Meng Baojiang, and his name was majestic and majestic, but he was as thin as a bamboo pole.

The reason why he was called Er Bangzi was because when he first joined the army, he ate sixteen sticks in one go with cold water.

In the independent detachment, each company operates independently, and the soldiers have a fixed amount of food.
When Jing Dagang, the head of the first regiment, assigned recruits to the company, no company wanted him because Er Bangzi could eat and was skinny.

But this guy had to be a machine gunner, and he ended up in the heavy machine gun company.

Shi Desheng looked at Er Bangzi, who was yellow and thin, and suddenly became interested: "I haven't asked you yet, why do you have to come to the heavy machine gun company?"

"Before I joined the army, my father asked about it. The machine gunners eat the best food, so be full!" Er Bangzi said with a smile.

When Shi Desheng heard this, his nose turned out of anger, and he said cursingly: "I told you that the machine gunner eats good food, but this is also the result of the machine gunner's life. The number of battles has been reduced the most, and your kid has been here for almost a month, don't you know?"

"I know, I'm not afraid of death!" Er Bangzi said without fear: "As long as you can eat enough!"

Shi Desheng just wanted to praise Er Bangzi, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he couldn't say anything.

Not long after, the roar of trucks came from across the river.

A Japanese Type [-] military truck was parked on the south side of the Zhanghe Bridge. More than a dozen Japanese soldiers jumped out of the truck, obviously a Japanese squad that had come to reconnaissance in advance.

The leading Japanese Sergeant Cao looked around with a telescope, and then waved his hand, and the Japanese troops in the squad scattered away.

A Japanese machine gunner shot at the north bank of the Zhanghe River with a crooked handle. Seeing that there was no movement, he couldn't help but nodded.

"Contact the captain immediately, there is no abnormality found on both sides of the Zhang River!"

On the north bank of the Zhanghe River.

In the first trench, Ding Wei and Jing Dagang were lying together.

"If you take off your pants and fart, the little devil will also fool things. I see that the distance between the two sides of the river is almost out of the range of a crooked machine gun. What's the use of fire detection?" Jing Dagang said.

"Then what do you think? The little devil can't fly over with wings!" Ding Wei said teasingly.

After that, both of them were happy.

"Now you can rest assured that the Japanese army is crossing the river from the Zhanghe Bridge. Not to mention, the two battalions of my 28th regiment are on the west side, and the three battalions of your regiment are on the east side. Keep an eye on your respective positions!" Ding Wei said. With his waist bent, he walked west along the ditch.

After receiving the news of the reconnaissance team, the large Japanese troops staying in the rear marched northward again.

"Mizuno-kun, you lead a large group to cross the river first!" Kuroda Yuzo said.

"Hi!"

The Japanese army carried a total of [-] large and small ships, the small ones could carry six or seven people, and the large ones could carry a small detachment.

The vanguard of the Japanese army crossing the river appeared on the south bank of the Zhang River in a way that Zhou Weihan did not expect.

I saw the Japanese army unload the boat from the carriage, and then several people lifted the boat and walked towards the river beach.

The large forces of the Japanese army were assembled by various squadrons and guarded on the south bank of the Zhanghe River.

"Hey, I thought the Japanese army would hide the boats crossing the river in some reed marsh, but I didn't expect the little devils to carry them here!" Zhou Weihan couldn't help laughing.

"Maybe this group of Japanese soldiers is also afraid that the boats crossing the river will be blown up by our Eighth Route Army!" Zhao Gang said from the side.

At this time, about [-] Japanese troops crossing the river in the first wave slowly rowed towards the north bank in boats.

Seeing the Japanese troops coming ashore, a soldier of the 28th Regiment subconsciously pressed his hand on the detonator.

"Don't worry, wait a little longer, the little devils who went ashore haven't completely entered the minefield yet!" Ding Wei stopped him.

As soon as Ding Wei finished speaking, the Japanese soldiers who came ashore quickly dispersed along the slope of the river beach, and some even stood on the ground.

"Head, what are you waiting for, kid?"

"What are you waiting for, let the little devils behind go ashore, hold your breath!" Ding Wei comforted the soldiers around him.

The second wave of Japanese troops crossing the river quickly approached the shore, and the Japanese soldiers standing on the river beach jumped into the water, trying to make the ships dock.

Seeing that the second wave of Japanese troops had already disembarked, the soldiers responsible for pressing the detonators suppressed their inner excitement and waited for Ding Wei's order.

"Do it!" Ding Wei ordered.

Stretching 1.5 kilometers from east to west, the river beach with a length of more than 300 meters from north to south instantly turned into a sea of ​​flames.

In order to cause damage to the Japanese army, Ding Wei planted all the mines, explosive packs, and most of the grenades carried by the 28th and [-]th regiments in this area.

After Zhou Weihan came, he learned that Ding Wei had set up a minefield, and immediately ordered to replenish the explosives seized in Handan City, so the power of the minefield was greatly increased.

More than [-] little devils scattered on the river beach were blown upright.

The little devil who was in the center of the explosion looked even more miserable, his body was blown to pieces.

More devils were hit by flying pieces of iron or gravel, and the little devils rolled all over the ground in pain, and more than half of the more than [-] little devils who went ashore were killed immediately.

"beat!"

Some of the light machine guns deployed in the first trench opened fire immediately, and more than a dozen light machine guns and more than [-] rifles fired together.

Dense bullets shot at the remaining devils on the river beach.

The remaining little devils on the river beach were completely stunned and hadn't recovered from the aftermath of the explosion.

The little devil who was farthest from the position was more than [-] meters away. Taking advantage of every time the little devil recovered, the soldiers beat the dogs in the water one by one!
Jing Dagang personally manipulated a Czech-style light machine gun, and he emptied the bullets in the magazine in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Weihan in the artillery tower at the back saw the impressive results of the battle, and couldn't help saying: "Okay, this wave has at least reimbursed one-third of the Japanese reinforcements!"

"Less say it must be more than [-], let alone, the explosives made by the little devil are stronger than the explosives made by our Eighth Route Army!" Zhao Gang joked aside.
