Chapter 2039 Port Wharf
On the way to the port, Xiang Shaomin discovered a strange phenomenon. Xu Mengcai's guerrillas would sometimes untie the leggings from their feet. He picked one up and took a look. Isn't it the cloth bag they discovered first?Can't help asking Xu Mengcai curiously: "Captain Xu? This should be the legging sandbag used by martial arts people to practice light kung fu, right? You guerrillas, do you practice light kung fu?"

Tying sandbags on the legs is a very effective way to practice light-weight kung fu. Xiang Shaomin tied sandbags when he was a child.There was nothing surprising about this, but in his opinion, hundreds of thousands of people tied sandbags together was too ridiculous in his opinion.Now wars rely on guns and cannons, so what's the use of this light-handed kung fu?

Xu Mengcai saw through his thoughts and said with a slight smile, "Commander Xiang, our guerrillas are inferior to the Japanese army in terms of weapons and equipment, so if we want to defeat them, we can only rely on running. Our commander-in-chief has a saying that opportunities come from running away." .Well, you'll soon see the beauty of it."

The Japanese army also found a few sandbag leggings on the way forward, and the devils began to regard them as a kind of booby trap, but found that they were just ordinary sandbag leggings, and they couldn't help but feel suspicious.The sandbag leggings were presented to Matsui Taijiro. The old devil was puzzled by seeing it, and asked Zhang Lanfeng what kind of equipment it was.

Zhang Lanfeng also couldn't figure it out, but an officer of the Peace Army beside him gave the answer, saying that it was used by Chinese martial arts practitioners to practice light skills. "Qinggong? What is it?" Matsui asked curiously.Zhang Lanfeng thought of the guerrillas that appeared before running faster than rabbits, thoughtfully, and replied Matsui: "This should be a means of training for the guerrillas." Then he explained the role of sandbags and leggings for him, saying that if you usually If you wear sandbags and leggings in daily life and training, if you take them off during combat, your running speed will be greatly improved.

Although the previous attack was frustrated, Matsui still didn't think so in his heart. He believed that in the face of absolute power, some small tricks of the guerrillas could only change the process but absolutely not the result.However, after listening to Zhang Lanfeng's explanation about sandbag leggings, he suddenly felt something was wrong.A mere pair of sandbag leggings is not enough to change anything, but thinking about it again, the training of the guerrillas has been so meticulous, so their combat effectiveness may not be as stated in the newspaper. "Speed ​​up the marching speed, the port must be captured before one o'clock!" The old devil suddenly ordered sharply.

The process of the Japanese army advancing towards the port was also the process of being constantly harassed by the guerrillas.Landmines, bludgeoning shots, and even traps have brought down dozens of peace soldiers and little devils. The peace army and the Japanese army were all soldiers. Before they knew it, their morale dropped again and again, until they saw the two iconic blockhouses at the port pier At that moment, the thing that worried Zhang Lanfeng the most appeared.The subordinate who never dared to make irresponsible remarks on his orders, unexpectedly contradicted Matsui in front of him.

"Military seat, this battle is impossible to fight. There is no sign of the guerrillas. Dozens of brothers have died. Let the imperial army use artillery to blow down the bunker first, or I will refuse to attack!"

"Master, doesn't the imperial army have artillery? Let's bombard it, brothers can't stand it anymore!"

It was the brigade commander and chief of staff of the first brigade who contradicted him. Zhang Lanfeng's face darkened in an instant, and he whipped his horsewhip across his head and face, and shouted: "Mom, it's the wrong way. If you are told to attack, then attack!" , if not, I will replace you!"

"Then you change it, I can't lead this team anymore!" The brigade commander held his head with both hands and let him whip the whip a few times, said in a muffled voice.

"You are not afraid that the imperial army will get angry and kill you on the spot!" Zhang Lanfeng said in a vicious voice.

The brigade commander was even more straightforward: "Anyway, it is death, and it is the same if he dies at the hands of the imperial army!"

Zhang Lanfeng had no choice but to ask Matsui for help, and asked him to use artillery to blow down the two bunkers first.Matsui had a complete defense map of the port and the technical parameters of the relevant fortifications. The old devil despised Zhang Lanfeng's ability to control his opponents, but he didn't dare to provoke too much, causing too much internal friction at the moment of the war.Generously ordered Nakahira Mineyoshi, the commander of the 5th Field Artillery Regiment, to carry out a 5-minute saturated bombardment, and then said to Zhang Lanfeng: "I will send an infantry brigade to cooperate with you in launching an attack. I hope that I can take down the port wharf in one go."

Zhang Lanfeng Nuo Nuo said to the officer of the opponent: "The imperial army has agreed to provide artillery support, and will also reinforce an infantry brigade of our department. Brothers, being dragged down by that bastard Xiang Shaomin, the imperial army will definitely punish our army after this battle. Clean it up, you can take care of it, don't leave anything behind!"

The main force of the Peace Army was born out of the National Revolutionary Army and the local security forces. The chief of the army has always regarded the troops under his command as private property. Everyone scolded Xiang Shaomin for being ignorant of current affairs and harming others while bargaining. Finally, about 400 people were selected. forward troops.

The cannon sounded, and in a short while, the two bunkers at the port wharf, the surrounding fortifications, and the barracks and warehouses behind were engulfed by fireworks.

When the Japanese army started shelling, Xu Mengcai, Xiang Shaomin and his party had already entered the port wharf and took cover.Hearing the sound of the explosion, Xiang Shaomin's face showed worry and thought: Xu Mengcai is too careless, no matter how fast they run, can they run faster than the little Japanese shells?Instead of fighting guerrillas, they have to fight positional warfare. I think they will definitely lose this game.

At this time, a guerrilla trotted over with a soaked quilt in his arms, handed the quilt to him and said, "Captain Xiang, Captain Xu asked me to find you one."

Xiang Shaomin was startled, took the quilt and looked left and right, but saw two or three guerrillas around him hiding under the soaked quilt, wondering: Can this thing block the Live the shells?It didn't show at all on the surface, and after calling out to the two brothers, some of them followed suit and hid under the quilt.

After the 5-minute shelling ended, the two bunkers were blasted with a few pits on the surface, but the main body was not damaged. He took out his pistol and fired a shot at the sky, shouting: "Brothers, don't be too much, you really treat my gun as a vegetarian? Now attack me!" After shouting this sentence, he lowered his volume and said: "Everyone We're all brothers, and I don't want you to be too difficult, but if you provoke Matsui Division Chief to personally intervene, I don't need to say more about what will happen? Hurry up, before the guerrillas are ready to attack!"

There is a village in the northwest of the port wharf, but there is a river between it and the river embankment. Matsui once sent peace troops to try to bypass the village and the north of the village, but landmines were repeatedly detonated.Being bombed by landmines was too detrimental to morale, so Matsui simply gave up the multi-faceted attack and focused on attacking from the west instead.

When the Japanese fired artillery, the wall on the west side of the pier collapsed for a long time, directly exposing the sandbags behind the wall, the warehouse and the bunker next to the approach bridge of the pier. It is suspected that the guerrillas have abandoned this stronghold.However, just as they launched their attack, the firing holes on the bunker spewed out flames.The few puppet soldiers who rushed to the front were hit by bullets, and fell to the ground wailing, and the rest quickly lay on the ground, firing guns, but no one dared to stand up again.
