Glorious Mission 1937

"call out"

The unique sound of mortar firing pierced the tranquility of the night. The patrolling soldiers near the ammunition accumulation point of the Japanese army raised their heads and looked at the night sky in doubt. Who is so devoid of public morality at such a late hour and is actually trying to shoot shells? , I don’t know if this is an arsenal. If the nearby ammunition is detonated, why don’t you all go to see Amaterasu together?

The Japanese army never thought that it was a surprise attack by the squadron. On the one hand, it was because the defenders of Tianzhen had been surrounded by the powerful forces of three infantry brigades, two detachments of the Japanese army, and nine cavalry divisions of the puppet army. , In any case, there is no ability to fight back.

And the vast area from Beiping to Zhangjiakou to Tianzhen has been completely occupied by the Japanese army, that is to say, there is no Chinese squadron behind them, at least the organized Chinese squadron no longer exists. .

In addition, it is located in the key defensive area of ​​the Japanese army, an ammunition accumulation point protected by the three lines of defense of the infantry regiment. The arrogant and proud Japanese did not think that the Chinese army could get in without making a sound.

"boom"

The landing point of the shell was exactly as Han Laojiu expected, without any error.

The power of a mortar shell explosion is very limited, and the killing radius will not exceed five meters, but unfortunately, the place where this shell hits is a bit special. The large oil barrels in Zhongyang caught fire immediately, and at the same time a violent explosion broke out.

"huh" "huh"

"Boom" "Boom"

Two more shells fell, this time the shells landed on the place where ammunition was piled up, tens of thousands of shells, hundreds of thousands of bullets exploded even if they were separated by two or three kilometers, Xu Bao and others could clearly understand Feel the heat wave from the explosion.

"Stop fighting, retreat!" Seeing the sound of explosions one after another at the Japanese army's ammunition accumulation site in the distance, the task of knocking out the Japanese army's arsenal was considered complete, Xu Bao decisively gave the order to retreat.

After giving the order, Xu Bao was the first to jump onto the truck next to him, and Han Laojiu on the side also hurriedly picked up the mortar and got into the truck, and then drove out.

"Enemy attack...Enemy attack..."

At this moment, the Japanese army barracks was in chaos, even people with no brains would know that something serious happened, and all the troops ran towards the place where the explosion occurred.

Xiao Lizhuang, the temporary headquarters of the Japanese Army Chahar Dispatched Corps.

"Baga, what are you working on?" The huge and intense explosion made Hideki Tojo very uneasy, and he hurriedly asked the guards on the side.

"Report to Your Excellency, Commander. The sound came from the west. There was a very violent explosion. I have already sent someone to check it out." A major staff officer stood up and replied.

"West...Baga, it's the arsenal... Pick up Sakai brigade commander immediately!" After listening to the staff officer's report, Hideki Tojo immediately realized that something might have happened to the arsenal.

"Mossy, Mossy... Mossy, Mossy..."

"Mossy, Mossy... Mossy, Mossy..."

"Report to Your Excellency Commander, no one answered the phone at the arsenal."

"Baga, something must have happened to the arsenal. Immediately order the 114th Infantry Regiment to support the arsenal, and order officers above the regiment leader to attend a meeting at the headquarters immediately, and at the same time send cavalry troops to conduct fire reconnaissance within ten kilometers of the headquarters." Hideki Tojo quickly ordered.

"Hay!"

Tianzhen County, Jinsui Army No.60 First Army 399 Regiment Headquarters.

"Have you checked it out? What happened?" Zhang Jingjun looked at Wu Kaishan, the chief of staff who had just entered.

"Reporting to the group, the brothers on the city wall just said that the explosion came from the east of the city. The sound was loud. They all felt the ground shaking and saw the flames soaring into the sky." Wu Kaishan reported.

"East of the city? Isn't that where the Japanese army's arsenal and headquarters are located? Could it be that something happened to the Japanese army's arsenal?" Zhang Jingjun said while thinking.

"It would be great if this is the case. All the ammunition and supplies of the Chahar Dispatched Corps are piled up there. If something really happens, the little devil will become a child with no nai. The rifle has no bullets and the tank has no gasoline. Maybe we can fight back." Wu Kaishan said.

"Don't be so optimistic. Even if something happens to the little devil's arsenal, we may not be able to fight back. Every time the little devil goes into battle, he will distribute a week's worth of ammunition and food to each unit. Generally, each soldier has at least as many rifle ammunition as there are." Two hundred rounds. That is to say, even if there is no follow-up supplement, the ammunition brought by the troops of the little devils outside the city can last for about 5 days. Do you think that we, who have thrown away the solid city defense fortifications, can fight the Japanese army to death? Five days?" Zhang Jingjun said.

Wu Kaishan smiled wryly and said: "Don't say it's five days. If we really fought in the field, our 61st Army might not be able to last for two days. The little devil is too powerful. There are planes in the sky and tanks and heavy artillery on the ground. We are being beaten completely passively."

"It's good to know! Hurry up and find out if something happened to the little devil's arsenal. If the little devil's arsenal is gone, it is still good news for us, although it may not be able to counterattack. But at least the little devils won't be able to take Tianzhen from our 399 regiment in a short time." Zhang Jingjun said.

"Yes, I'm going right now!"

Xuanjiata. Xinghe County Security Corps Temporary Headquarters.

"Commander, just now the special operations team sent a telegram. They raided the Japanese army's arsenal half an hour ago and blew up all the ammunition and fuel piled up in the field by the Chahar dispatched corps. Now the special operations team is on the way back." Li Wensheng He read excitedly while holding a telegram.

"Okay, good job! Hahaha!" Chen Feng said with a smile.

Then he said: "Wen Sheng, with the help of the Special Forces, the little devil's plan to take down Tianzhen is likely to run aground."

"Yeah, the cannon was destroyed by us, and now even the ammunition is gone. The Japanese army's equipment advantage and firepower advantage are all gone at once. As for the supplement, I am afraid that it will not be able to arrive in ten and a half months. At least this paragraph The little devil will definitely not be able to take down Tianzhen County within the time." Li Wensheng said.

"The little devil has now captured all the towns between Beiping and Tianzhen, and even the important places such as Nankou have fallen into the hands of Ri himself. They can completely replenish ammunition through the Pingsui Railway. I am afraid it will take up to five days. The little devil's ammunition can be transported to Tianzhen." Yang Yi said worriedly.

"Five days is enough time. Before the Japanese army's supplementary ammunition arrives in Tianzhen, we can absolutely eat this Honda team." Chen Feng said confidently.

"Commander, I'm worried that the little devil will stop attacking because the arsenal was bombed. After all, what are they going to fight without ammunition?" Yang Yi said.

"Wen Sheng, Yang Yi, you don't know the Japanese army. Since the Marco Polo Bridge Incident, they have sung songs all the way, and they are invincible. This has made the Japanese army extremely arrogant from the generals to the ordinary soldiers. They will stop attacking because the arsenal is bombed, but they will be more violent and attack more crazy, because they don't believe in failure. In addition, the little devils usually have some ammunition in stock in the army, even if there is no supplement from the general headquarters, ri The various battle formations of the army can last at least three to four days. So I just said that the Japanese army's plan to take down Tianzhen will run aground, not fail." Chen Feng said.

"Commander, what should we do then?" Yang Yi said.

"Originally we planned to block the Japanese army along the way, consume the vital forces of the Japanese army, and finally wipe out the enemy at the city of Xinghe. Now the plan must be revised. In this way, Wen Sheng, you take the second and third battalions, the artillery battalion, the reconnaissance company, and the engineers. The company and the machine gun battalion directly under the headquarters went into the mountains overnight, and then waited for orders in concealment. I returned to Xinpingbao overnight, waiting for the arrival of the Honda regiment, and at the same time ordered the third regiment to send troops south overnight, waiting for the Japanese army to consume in Xinpingbao. It's almost there, let's give him a front and back attack, and eat up the infantry regiment of the little devil in one fell swoop, what do you think?" Chen Feng said.

"Alright, the infantry regiment of the little devil only has more than 500 people, and the cavalry division of the puppet army has only more than 5000 people. After yesterday's battle, the infantry regiment of the little devil may have more than [-] soldiers. [-] people are not enough. Our two regiments have more than [-] soldiers. In addition to the troops directly under the headquarters, the strength is more than twice that of the Japanese puppet army. In addition, our army's equipment is stronger than that of the Japanese army Quite a few, and the firepower is stronger than theirs, if they attack suddenly, it is very likely to kill this Japanese infantry unit in one fell swoop." Yang Yi thought for a while and said.

"I also agree with the commander's plan, but it's best to separate a troop to guard the road, in case the Japanese army sends reinforcements to reinforce this shitty Honda unit." Li Wensheng said.

"This job will be handed over to the special forces. Wen Sheng, you should immediately send a telegram to Xu Bao, ordering their special forces to break up into pieces immediately, and block the Japanese reinforcements along the Panshan Highway from Tianzhen to Xinghe. Tell them not to fight with them." For the Japanese army to fight positional warfare, they only need to send out snipers along the way to kill low-level Japanese officers and ordinary soldiers, and their purpose is to slow down the marching speed of the Japanese army."

"Yes"

"Go and act!"
