Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 354 Attack! (Third update!)

After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Ping, who arrived at the brigade headquarters, directly stated the purpose of his trip without hesitation.

"Staff Zhang, the map!" Cheng Xiao didn't answer right away, but put out the map.

"Old Wang, there is a county town less than [-] kilometers away from the copper mine, and nearly [-] Japanese and puppet troops are stationed there. Once the mine is attacked, they will definitely send troops to reinforce it. I want to take this opportunity to give the Japanese and puppet troops Come on and be ruthless!"

"Since the expansion of the army, I have never experienced a real battle. I want to use this opportunity to let you set up a stage for us to fight the devil reinforcements for an ambush~"

"In normal times, such a large combat mission would definitely need to be reported to the military sub-division, or even the military region. But now that I have a commander to make the independent brigade fully cooperate with your orders, I will have no problem pulling the entire independent brigade out!".

Needless to say, this is indeed a very bold idea.

Wang Ping's eyes lit up and he asked, "Old Cheng, this is not your style all along."

Cheng Xiao didn't hesitate, and replied directly: "I learned from you, Lao Wang, and I learned a lot from you, but the most important thing is to be brave!"

After saying a joke, Cheng Xiao pointed to the map and asked: "Old Wang, the devils have a very strong force in the copper mine. But you only need one regiment, there must be a reason for it. I plan to separate Zeng Quan's regiment Here it is, and then a company of mountain artillery, a platoon of reconnaissance companies, a company of guard battalions, and a company of engineering battalions!"

"I will personally command the rest of the troops, find a place to eat the devils to reinforce the troops!"

"No problem!" Wang Ping replied readily.

Knowing that he was going to fight with the old regiment leader again, and that he was under the direct command of the old regiment leader, the more than 2000 soldiers of the First Regiment of the Independent Brigade immediately became overwhelmed.

In the eyes of many people, the old regiment leader has never failed against the devils.

Fighting with the old regiment leader means victory 1, which means military exploits.Therefore, the morale of the group is very high.After the order was issued, the troops assembled in less than half a day, and then waited for the departure time.

After a night of rapid march, the troops lurked directly in the woods near the coal mine.

Zeng Quan, the head of the first regiment, Zhang Qing, the chief of staff, and Cheng Xiao, the reconnaissance platoon leader and company commander of the guard who specially strengthened for him!A group of more than a dozen people was calm in the night, and easily touched a high ground less than two kilometers away from the copper mine, overlooking the entire mine from a condescending height.

The scale of the mine is very large, more than double the size of the Guangtouling coal mine that he has built.

Because, in order to facilitate transportation, the devil directly built several smelting furnaces in the mine.The ore transported from the mine is directly poured into the furnace for smelting.In this way, the devil only needs to leave here with the copper ingot, which is very convenient.

In the brightly lit mine, several smelting furnaces with long chimneys were particularly dangerous, and they came into Wang Ping's sight immediately.

Next to the stove, dozens of ragged absenteeism were pouring ore and coal into the feed port under the supervision of devils.No matter who it is, as long as the movement is a little slower, the devil's whip will be greeted immediately.

In just one or two minutes, two absentees were whipped.

The absentees dare not speak out, otherwise, with the cruelty of the devil, they would directly stab him into a hornet's nest with a bayonet and throw him outside the mine to feed the wolves.

Wang Ping's face turned gloomy, but he didn't speak. He held up his binoculars and began to search for the fortifications arranged by the Japanese army around the mine.

"Old leader, this place is indeed the source of income for the little devils. The security is too strict. There are more than five machine gun bunkers built out of stone and cement alone. This is still on the surface. We don't know if we haven't found any. How much!" Zeng Quan frowned and said what he saw.

Wang Ping's face also instantly became heavy.

He has also built the machine gun bunker with cement and stones, which is very strong, and ordinary mountain artillery will definitely not be able to do anything to it.

The devils have built so many dark forts around the coal mine at one time, if there is a strong attack, the casualties of the troops must be very heavy!

Frowning, he ordered: "Old Zeng, arrange a reconnaissance team to get as close as possible to investigate the deployment and firepower of the Japanese army in the copper mine! It is best to find an absentee worker in the mine, otherwise we will investigate the situation in the mine. Impossible to figure it out!"

At three o'clock in the morning that night, Zeng Quan came over with a serious expression on his face.

"Old commander, the situation is not good! The Japanese army ordered the miners to build a total of eleven large and small dark bunkers around the mine, and each dark bunker had no less than one combat team's devils in charge, equipped with light machine guns and heavy machine guns! Every dark bunker For us, we are all a hedgehog, if we attack by force, we will not be able to rely on no matter how heavy the casualties are!"

"Is it possible to get in from the back of the mine? It's really not possible. It's fine to take down the high ground behind the mine and suppress the devils in the mine!" Wang Ping suggested, frowning.

Zeng Quan shook his head helplessly.

"It's hard, the devil also built two machine gun bunkers in the back!"

"As for the high ground, we thought about it, and so did the devils. They directly built three forts on the high ground and stationed a reinforced infantry squad."

"A large number of light and heavy machine guns can form dense crossfire around the bunker. If you charge hard, no matter how heavy the casualties are, it is impossible to occupy the hill!"

"Then there is no other way!" Wang Ping frowned and shouted in dissatisfaction.

"I really can't think of any other way except to attack by force!" Zeng Quan replied helplessly.

"No!" Wang Ping refused without thinking about it!

"The devil's firepower is so strong, and there are machine gun bunkers. If you charge hard, you won't be able to take down the copper mine even if you wipe out all the balls!"

"Then what should we do?" Zeng Quan was also anxious, staring closely at Wang Ping and asked.

"Tank, we can use the tank to cover the troops approaching those machine gun bunkers!" Wang Ping shouted with a bright eye.

"But devils have cannons, and earth tanks can block bullets, but they can't stop artillery shells falling from the sky. After a round of artillery shells, no matter how many earth tanks are blown into sawdust!" Zeng Quan immediately pointed out the disadvantages of earth tanks, staring at Wang Ping and asked .

"The devil has guns and we have guns too!" Wang Ping replied confidently.

"As long as I can block the bullets fired from the devil's machine gun bunker and cover the troops close to the bunker, I will solve the problem of the gun!"

Zeng Quan quickly reacted: "Okay, old regiment leader, I will arrange people to make earth tanks!"

"Well, in order to prevent accidents, make a few more earthen tanks!" Wang Ping nodded in agreement.

On the only way from the county seat to the copper mine, the two regiments of the Independent Brigade, under the command of Cheng Xiao himself, have been lurking in the nearby woods for almost two days.

Seeing that there was only one day's worth of dry food left by the troops, the political commissar who had just been transferred to the Independent Brigade couldn't help reminding.

"Brigade Commander, do you want to send a telegram to Director Wang to ask!"

Cheng Xiao directly shook his head and refused: "I believe in the old regiment leader, he has never failed to fight devils. If it wasn't for that incident, he would be the current independent brigade commander, and it's not my turn at all. Send him a telegram now , will disturb his thoughts!"
