Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 627 Don't Let Their Conspiracy Succeed (Ninth Update!)

631
"Underground... Captain, are you planning to dig a tunnel?" Hong Ruijun was the first to react, staring at Wang Ping with a puzzled expression and asked back.

As an old Red Army, although Hong Ruijun had never dug a tunnel, he had seen it.

In the past, when fighting landlords and rich lords, you can often see tunnels used by landlords to escape and hide gold, silver and jewelry.

However, it is absolutely impossible to complete a tunnel in a short period of time.This is also the specific reason why Hong Ruijun showed a frightened expression after hearing Wang Ping say that he was going underground.

Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "It is not necessary to dig a tunnel to go underground, and you just said that digging a tunnel takes time and effort. You must not dig the blockade from here tonight!"

"Then how to go underground!" Hong Ruijun didn't understand.

"Dig trenches!" Wang Ping replied.

"Look at the terrain here, whether it's the stronghold tower on the left or the bunker on the right, it's not very high!"

"The condescending bullets can only fly close to the ground. If we dig a trench under the two high grounds for only one person to pass through, and pile up the dug mud on both sides of the trench to block bullets, then we can cross the blockade line along the trench."

"As for the devils in the gun towers and bunkers of the stronghold, no matter how condescending they shoot, the swishing bullets can only hit the soil we piled on both sides of the trenches, and will not hurt our soldiers who broke through the trenches!"

"It can be done!" Hong Ruijun affirmed with excitement, then stared at Wang Ping and ordered.

"Head, how do we fight, can you give an order?"

"The guard company is all new recruits. They can't fight, and digging trenches is still no problem!"

Wang Ping hesitated for a moment before giving orders.

"Artillery, keep firing. Whether you use ordinary shells or processed chili shells, you must ensure that the devils' bunkers and gun towers on the high ground are always covered by gunpowder smoke. The devils inside can't see what's going on outside, so they can only shoot blindly. They don't know us. what are you doing!"

"No problem," Chen Dong, the artillery company commander, immediately affirmed.

"Hong Ruijun, you command the guard company to touch me out of the range of the devil's light and heavy machine guns, and then start digging trenches. You can dig at multiple points together. Let everyone bring tools, while the devil can only shoot blindly, crawl forward and touch the front , keep two men at an interval of ten meters, first dig out individual bunkers, and then connect these individual bunkers into one piece, and finally the entire trench will be formed."

"Please rest assured, the regiment leader, the guard company promises to complete the task."

The captain, who was sleeping soundly on the camp bed, was woken up by the captain of the guard as soon as he fell asleep.

"Sir, the blockade line five kilometers away was attacked by the Eighth Route Army. They used shells made of chili powder. It must be that the Tuba Road in the mountains can't survive and wants to break out!"

Even though he was drunk, the captain got up from the bed in no time.

The defense line was breached by the Eighth Route Army three times in a row. The first two times, the brigade commander Matsumoto didn't say anything about himself.The third time, Matsumoto sent a telegram directly, reprimanding himself in a very severe tone.

If there is another accident this time, the captain is sure that even if he is the confidant of the brigade commander, he will be disappointed in himself after repeated failures, and then replace himself, and even send himself to a military court.

Therefore, as soon as he heard the Eighth Route Army's attack, the team leader became nervous like a conditioned reflex.

"Is there something wrong with the blockade?"

"Please rest assured, sir, the blockade is intact, and all the bunkers and machine gun bunkers are in our hands!" The captain of the guard quickly replied, and then he did not forget to add.

"We are equipped with gas masks, and the pepper shells fired by Tuba Road can't do anything to us."

The captain's tense heart immediately relaxed, and Changsong said with a sigh of relief: "That's good. The brigade commander has an order. When encountering an attack from the Tuba Road, you only need to repel them and keep them trapped in the mountain. They just fend for themselves.”

"Immediately send a telegram to the front-line troops. Be sure to hold the blockade and repel the Eighth Route Army's attack. During the battle, no troops can take the initiative to attack. If there is an accident, immediately send a telegram to the headquarters for help, and the mobile troops will arrive immediately! Xinyi The regiment is at the end of its rope, there is no need to fight them with the precious names of the imperial army."

Thick gunpowder smoke and red smoke are everywhere inside and outside the blockhouse, and there are constant explosions outside the blockhouse.

However, the team leader guarding the third floor of the gun tower was not worried at all.

Wearing a gas mask, he held up the binoculars, seizing any opportunity when the gunpowder smoke faded, trying to see clearly what the Eighth Route Army was doing below the high ground.

Of course, the squad leader was confident that no matter what they were doing, it was impossible for them to rush through the crossfire formed by the five light and heavy machine guns under his command firing together.

Half an hour later, the explosion outside the gun tower finally stopped, and the gunpowder smoke in front of it slowly dissipated.The team leader was surprised to find that he did not find a dead body of the Eighth Route Army outside the gun tower.

In other words, the Eighth Route Army did not launch an attack during the intermittent shelling that lasted half an hour just now.

"Baga, what's the matter? Didn't the Eighth Route Army run out of ammunition and food in the mountains, and the only way to survive is to rush out? Just now, they fired so many shells at once, just to cause us some trouble. Where did they come from? How many shells?"

A sergeant next to him suddenly shouted: "At the foot of the mountain, captain, look at the foot of the mountain, the Eighth Route Army is digging trenches?"

Looking outside through the firing holes, despite the darkness, the little moonlight allowed the team leader to see more than 50 individual bunkers that had been formed at the foot of the mountain.

Not only that, but the Eighth Route Army inside these individual bunkers was still digging outside the bunkers. Because the distance was too far, he could only see a vague shadow, and he didn't know the real purpose of the new group digging trenches.

"They are difficult to fight and want to shorten the attack distance by digging trenches, and then attack our stronghold." The team leader analyzed on a whim.

But he quickly dismissed the idea.

"No, the foot of the mountain is a few hundred meters away from here. Even if they dig until dawn, their trenches will not be able to dig the top of our mountain, let alone attack!"

The sergeant next to him suddenly reminded: "Is it possible for them to connect those individual bunkers into a trench, and the troops will rush through our blockade line along the trench?"

"It's possible!" The captain frowned instantly.

With a calm face, he analyzed: "The bullets we fire cannot turn around. As long as the Eighth Route Army is hidden in the trenches, no matter how fierce our firepower is, we will not be able to hurt them!"

"Bageyalu, Tubalu are too cunning, we must not let their plot succeed!"

"Everyone started looting immediately, and the grenades went outside to fire grenades, killing Tubalu who was hiding in the trench."
