The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 690 The first battle of the sharp Japanese tanks appeared (ask for a monthly ticket)

The one that was issued to Li Shengmin was naturally not the M1 Garand rifle. If you have never used this kind of semi-automatic rifle before, you will definitely not be used to it if you get used to it suddenly.

So what Duan Peng prepared for Li Shengmin was the [-]-type rifle seized from the devil.

At this time, with the assistance of a group of ten soldiers, the people moved towards the back village.

With the annihilation of Nancun Taro, the leader of the devil squad, and others, the sound of fighting in the village also aroused the vigilance of the Japanese and puppet troops stationed at the entrance of the village.

The leader of the devil squadron immediately sent a squad of devils to investigate the situation in the direction of the rice field in the village.

Duan Peng led the soldiers of the second group to lay an ambush in advance. There were only devils in one class, and there was not enough space between their teeth. After a burst of gunshots, all twelve devils were wiped out.

At this time, I overlooked the entire Xiaoli Village from a high altitude.

Sun Daping, the commander of the cavalry company of the 28th Regiment, divided the cavalry company into two parts. A team of forty soldiers made a detour in the direction of the entrance of the village in the gentle area outside Xiaoli Village, attracting the attention of most of the Japanese and puppet troops.

But this time the Japanese army set a trap in Xiaoli Village, just as the monk and others speculated.

The devils wanted to use these people as bait to lure out the main force of the Eighth Route Army who had been hiding in the tunnel and refused to come out, and then surrounded and wiped them out.

In order to achieve this goal, the devil officer presumptuously dispatched more than a hundred days of puppet troops to guard Xiaoli Village, so that the Eighth Route Army believed that they had only this little force.

In addition, the devils hid a full squadron each at the left and right gentle slopes less than a kilometer away from Xiaoli Village.

Not only that, this time, in order to enhance the mobility of the team and deal with the main force of the Eighth Route who came to rescue the people of Xiaoli Village, the two Japanese squadrons also strengthened four tanks.

Of course, it's just the Japanese Type [-] ultra-light tank.

It is commonly known as the Douding Tank by the Chinese army.

The armor of this diced tank is quite weak, with a dead weight of only 3.2 tons. It can only be called a light armored vehicle, not a tank.

It is 3.08 meters long, 1.62 meters wide and 1.62 meters high.

From this height, with the monk's height of 1.8 meters, this tank is more than ten centimeters lower than the monk.

The whole vehicle body is welded by 6 mm armor, and its protection ability is very poor. It can be blown to pieces with only one shot of an explosive package or a mountain cannon.

But right now, the little devil's reinforcement of the Bean Ding Tank is also suitable for the current situation.

Although the Douding tank is light in body and poor in protection, it also has its advantages. It is highly mobile, with a maximum speed of 40 kilometers per hour and a maximum range of 208 kilometers. It is usually used as a breakthrough tank for the Japanese cavalry.

This time, the devils used the people of Xiaoli Village as bait and strengthened four Douding tanks, just to encircle the main force of the Eighth Route Army who came for reinforcements with fast maneuvering.

The entire Lijia Village was a large net laid by the Japanese army for the main force of the Eighth Route Army. The surrounding area was an open area, and only Lijia Village was the last place where the Eighth Route Army could retreat.

However, the sudden appearance of the cavalry unit of the 28th regiment and the tactics of the light cavalry are beyond the expectations of Kazuo Nakano, the leader of the Devil Squadron.

This light cavalry unit was very fast, and suddenly circled around Xiaoli Village and opened fire at the Japanese and puppet military fortifications at the entrance of the village.

The forward observation post immediately passed the news to Kazuo Nakano.

"Reporting, sir, the cavalry unit of the Eighth Route Army was found at the entrance of Xiaoli Village."

Kazuo Nakano was immediately overjoyed. The Eighth Route Army lacked mechanized troops. Even if the cavalry were their mechanized troops, they were precious to the Eighth Route Army!
Right now, wouldn't it be wonderful to use these common people to first catch the cavalry troops of the Eighth Route Army, destroy them, and win the first battle?
"Yaoxi, call the Nancun squad immediately to restrain this cavalry of the Eighth Route Army and wait for our troops to make a roundabout encirclement."

"Hi!"

The Japanese squadron, which was ambushing on the two wings of Xiaoli Village, quickly turned towards the left and right wings of the cavalry company.

This situation was immediately discovered by the guard post arranged by Company Commander Sun.

According to the monk's tape, Sun Daping gave the order to fight and withdraw without hesitation.

The little devil, who was turning around from left to right, couldn't run with two legs better than four legs. He could only watch helplessly as the Eighth Route Army cavalry broke through before the encirclement closed.

Since the two sides were still separated by a long distance, even the devil's bean diced tank could not stop the retreating cavalry at an absolute speed.

Kazuo Nakano could only watch helplessly as the duck with its beak flew away again.

But Kazuo Nakano was not in a hurry. He believed that as long as the villagers of Lijia Village were in hand, the Eighth Route Army would come over sooner or later.

Then, the messenger sent an order: "Report to your Excellency, the squadron leader. The Nancun team sent a communication. Not long ago, the Eighth Route Army attacked the rice field from the direction of the rear rush. The Nancun team leader was killed on the spot."

"This eight-way team has fierce firepower and strong combat effectiveness. The Nancun team suffered heavy casualties and was unable to advance for a while."

Kazuo Nakano suddenly realized that the purpose of the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army suddenly appearing at the entrance of the village to harass them was to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army in the village and rescue the villagers of Xiaoli Village.

"Yaoxi, don't let any of Tuba Road in the village go. Immediately send an order to the Nancun team to advance into the village."

"The first team and the second team are equipped with two tanks, and the left wing of Xiaoli Village is detoured. The third team and the fourth team are equipped with two tanks, and the right wing of Xiaoli Village is detoured. Quickly block these eight retreat roads for me."

"Hi!"

……

Xiao Li Village.

The monk and his party covered the smooth transfer of the common people to the back village area.

The headache for the monk and Duan Peng was that the villages in Jizhong were not as convenient as the people in the Taihang area to move due to the terrain constraints, and there were deep mountains and old forests to hide at any time.

Right now, when I left the village, I could see the flat terrain at a glance.

If this is caught up by devils, it can only be regarded as a living target.

You can continue to stay in the village, once you are besieged by little devils, you will also be close to death.

"Company Commander, the Devils are advancing simultaneously from the left and right wings outside the village, as well as the direction of the village entrance. In addition, we also spotted the figure of the Devils Tank, and it seems that they want to stop the back village's retreat in advance!"

The guard post outside the village transmitted the roundabout communication of the Japanese army through the short-wave radio station, and the communicator reported to the monk.

The situation is extremely urgent, and the troops of the monk and his party are limited at the moment.

In addition, there are more than 100 people dragged down.

Once Xiaoli Village is blocked by the devil's devious troops, the consequences will be disastrous.

The terrain of the plain in Jizhong is really too difficult to handle, and the tunnel that was originally opened in the village was blown up and blocked by the devils, so it cannot be used for transfer for the time being.

The situation became more and more urgent.

The monk didn't have time to think, and immediately ordered: "Li Shengmin, I will send you some more guns and ammunition. You temporarily recruit people from the common people to form a militia team to cover the transfer of the common people to the base area."

"We will stay behind to stop the Japanese and puppet troops and buy enough time for the transfer of the people. The situation is urgent now. I don't have time to talk to you. I just ask you, can you complete the task?"

A team of monks wore steel helmets and was well-equipped.

Li Shengmin had heard from Yang Bing earlier that it was reinforcements sent by Commander Kong of the Independence Regiment.

In the previous battle in the dojo area, Li Shengmin was even more amazed by the powerful fighting power displayed by the independent regiment fighters.

Li Shengmin admired the monk as a commander.

At this moment, the monk gave the order, realizing that the situation is urgent and there is no need to say more, Li Shengmin responded solemnly: "Please rest assured, comrade company commander, I swear to the death to complete the task!"

"Then set off immediately and go straight in the direction of the base area. Regimental Commander Lu should have sent reinforcements. As long as you meet them, the villagers will be safe."

"Yes!"

Li Shengmin took the order and immediately made preparations.

At this time, the monk looked at Sun Chuanzhong, the commander of the Second Battalion.

Sun Chuanzhong scolded with a smile: "Monk, at this critical time, you can't be a hero for your first team, right? Don't say anything. If I leave the troops that your first team has reinforced, I will withdraw them in advance, and I will lose face in the future." I've met someone."

"Isn't it just a little devil, let's kill him in Lijia Village today."

When he said these words, Sun Chuanzhong had a determined face. He knew the current situation well, and he knew that staying here would mean death and no life.

outside the village.

Sun Daping, the commander of the cavalry company, rushed towards Houcun with the withdrawn cavalry.

The guard post sent by the monk stopped them halfway.

"Company Commander Sun, right now the Japanese and puppet troops are using tanks and encircling them from the left and right. Our company commander said that it is not easy to form a cavalry company of the 28th Regiment, and you should not stay here to take risks. He asked you to immediately retreat to the base area and cover the enemy at the same time. The people are transferred!"

After hearing this, Sun Daping laughed loudly at the soldiers on the left and right:
"Comrades, did you hear that? Comrades from the Independence Regiment are looking down on us!"

"Everyone's life is life, there is nothing that should or should not be."

"The comrades from the Independence Regiment came to reinforce our Jizhong this time. This is a great friendship. Can we just watch our brother troops stay here and fight alone?"

"cannot--"

The soldiers of the entire cavalry company roared in unison.

Sun Dalian smiled, and said loudly: "Good job, there are no cowards in our cavalry company, all of them are in command."

"However, Company Commander Wei has a good saying. It's not easy for our regiment commander to get these horses. First platoon leader, you arrange a few soldiers to drive the horses and move them with the people. The others get off the horses with all the equipment and ammunition. Follow me to reinforce Company Commander Wei and the others! "

"Yes!"

In this way, Sun Daping left five soldiers in charge of transferring the horses, and took the remaining 70 soldiers to the direction of Houcun.

The two sides converged in the Houcun area.

The monk was a little helpless, with bitterness on the corner of his mouth, "Company Commander Sun, why are you doing this?"

Sun Daping laughed resolutely and said: "Commander Wei, you don't need to say anything. When it comes to killing devils, our 28th regiment may not be inferior to your independent regiment. Comrades, do you think so?"

With the cavalry company soldiers responding in unison.

The monk could only accept the fact that Sun Daping and his party stayed behind to fight.

Of course, in the bottom of my heart, the monk, Duan Peng, and the soldiers of the independent regiment also admired him.

It is worthy of the troops that regiment leader Ding once led.

The soldiers of the 28th regiment are all good.

If you want to go, let's go together, if you want to fight, let's fight together.

We care about the horses, and we can send them away.

But we are not afraid of death, and we are willing to stay and work hard with the brother troops!
Sun Chuanzhong smiled brightly, "Old Sun, if you really withdraw with the soldiers, after this battle, if I can survive and go back to see you again, I will definitely scold you like a dog."

Sun Daping said cheerfully: "Second Battalion Commander, we dare not withdraw this sentence just for you."

Ha ha ha ha--

Amidst the laughter, Sun Chuanzhong and Sun Daping surprisingly agreed on how to fight, following the precedent of successfully saving the people this time, and were willing to obey the command of the monk.

Looking at the gazes of the soldiers coming over, the first sentence the monk said was:
"Comrades, do you think this is a trap set by the little devils and surrounded us?"

"No, let me tell you, this is obviously the time when we surrounded the little devils, and the next thing is the feast for us to slaughter devils!"

"Duan Peng, are our guys ready?"

Duan Pengle said: "Don't worry, the explosive kit and the King of Slaughter have already been brought here, monk, speaking of it, fortunately we were careful, this time we came here in a hurry, and we didn't forget to bring these devil-killing treasures. "

The monk said: "Unfortunately, the time is too tight this time. The number we bring is limited. The Slaughter King only brought thirty. If we bring all of them, we won't be able to kill as many devils as possible this time."

The monk and Duan Peng spoke without saying a word, while Sun Chuanzhong, Sun Daping and the others were in a daze.

King of Slaughter?
What the hell?

The monk did not explain, but quickly arranged for Sun Chuanzhong and Sun Daping to lead the team to build two lines of fortifications in the direction of Houcun.

"And try to dig some tunnels, even if it's a temporary hiding place, to avoid the devil's artillery fire."

"The two lines of fortifications are used to stop the devils coming from the entrance of the village and the back of the village respectively, but the fortifications are dead, but the people are alive. Once the devils attack violently, we immediately abandon the fortifications and enter the village to fight in the streets."

In addition, considering that the Japanese army may continue to send troops to pursue the transferred civilians.

The monk and Duan Peng each led a team to detour to the left and right wings of the village to attract the firepower of the Japanese and puppet troops and let the devils and puppet troops focus on the battle in the village.

"Duan Peng, the devil has four tanks, which are quite a lot, but they are just the most rubbish bean tanks. Find a way to blow up two of his tanks and fill up the devil's hatred. Let's go to the village to fight in the streets and clean up these slowly. Devil."

"Hey!" Duan Peng responded, and couldn't help laughing.

Little Bean Ding Tank!

Bullying and bullying the troops in Jizhong is okay, but if you want to bully the troops of our independent regiment, you little devil is purely a birthday star who hanged himself because he thinks his life is too long.

The scouts in front quickly passed on the situation of the Japanese and puppet troops:
"Company commander, in addition to the more than 100 Japanese and puppet troops originally in Xiaoli Village, the devils also ambushed almost two squadrons of troops outside the village. The total number of Japanese and puppet troops is more than 500."

The monk nodded and calculated the difference in strength between the two sides:
"Our cavalry company has more than 70 people left, plus the soldiers of the guard company, there are a total of more than 100 people. Compared with the little devil's force, it is almost 1:5. The difference is not too much!"

"As for the equipment..."

The monk just wanted to say that with the excellent equipment of our independent regiment, there is no problem in crushing little devils and puppet troops.

Then I saw that most of the soldiers in the cavalry company were made in Hanyang, and I didn't see a few [-]-style rifles.

As for the infantry guns dedicated to the soldiers of the cavalry company of the independent regiment.

The cavalry company of the 28th regiment was not seen at all.

Seeing the monk looking over with stunned eyes, Sun Chuanzhong blushed and said, "Monk, don't look at us like this. Our 28th regiment is no match for your independent regiment. It has a big family and great business, and there is also Captain Kong who can do business and An all-around commander who knows how to fight."

"The equipment of our cavalry company is pretty good. Not to mention a rifle, the old sleeves we used before have already been replaced."

"The main combat troops of our 28th Regiment's battalions, and some soldiers even use old guns that are almost worn out, and some soldiers even use simple bird guns made by our old blacksmiths."

"That's why, in the past six months, our 28th regiment has cooperated with your independent regiment, and the equipment in the regiment has developed a lot."

"Earlier, only two or three members of our 28th Regiment could carry a gun. Not to mention the few guns and the many people, the bullets were even more pitiful, with less than five bullets per person."

The monk did not speak, speechless.

As expected, after leaving the independent group and leaving her mother's family, she knew how rich her mother's family was.

Some soldiers of the guard company who followed the monk to Jizhong this time were even more stunned.

A young soldier directly expressed everyone's aspirations: "I thought that our troops in Jizhong, even if they were not as good as our independent regiment's equipment level, would not be much worse!"

"Now I'm touching the 120 rounds of ammunition in my pocket, and I suddenly feel like a big dog. It's really a sin!"

Sun Chuanzhong: "..."

Sun Daping: "..."

Soldiers of the 28th Jizhong Cavalry Company: "..."

This is too shocking.

cough cough-

The monk coughed a few times and asked, "Company Commander Sun, what is the average ammunition amount of our soldiers?"

Sun Daping said: "I came out in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring enough ammunition in advance. The amount of ammunition normally distributed by our cavalry company has always been the most in the regiment."

"This time, there are [-] bullets per capita. Some were consumed in the previous battle, and now each person still has about [-] bullets."

The monk said: "We are using Garand rifles, and the bullets have different calibers, so there is no way to share some ammunition with you.

In this way, some [-]-type rifles and Hanyang-made rifles were seized from the hands of the devils and puppet soldiers just now. Everyone will even out the bullets. Once street fighting starts in the village, we can only fight on our own. At that time, the ammunition will not continue to be distributed. . "

"it is good!"

After quickly making arrangements, the monk led a team to block the Japanese pursuit troops on the left flank outside the village.

Sun Chuanzhong fought with the monk here.

Sun Daping followed Duan Peng from another direction to stop the Japanese pursuers.

After arriving at the place, the monk gave an order, and the soldiers divided into two groups, and moved quickly, digging holes in the ground, and laying remote detonation explosives controlled by wires and electric detonators.

Considering that once the Japanese army is blocked, they will definitely focus on the village and enter Xiaoli Village from the main road in the back village.

The monk ordered these explosives to be buried on the only way from Houcun to the village, and all the explosives on hand were buried in a triangle shape. In order to ensure that the devil’s tank was blown up at one time, the interval between the buried explosives was less than two meters , to form a whole triangular anti-tank mine group.

And made a natural treatment on the surface, and even re-covered with grass, at least not visible from a distance.

In the words of the monk, "This is the big meal we prepare for the little devil's bean diced tank."

soon.

The two teams sent by Kazuo Nakano, the leader of the Devil Squadron, circled towards the entrance of the back village with the cooperation of two bean tanks.

The devil officer in command saw the transferred civilians through the binoculars and quickly ordered to pursue them.

Then, in the area close to Houcun, they were blocked by fire from troops led by monks and Duan Peng.

boom -

The artillery fire exploded in the area where the devils advanced.

Looking at the four or five devils who were blown up on the spot through the binoculars, Sun Chuanzhong exclaimed: "Monk, I see that the caliber of this gun is not big, but its power is not small, and the range is so far. It's out of the range of the devil grenadier."

The monk laughed and said, "This is the 60mm mortar that our regiment leader got from the Yankee. The gun is light, powerful, and has a long range. It completely crushes the devil's [-]-[-] grenades."

"Good stuff!" Sun Chuanzhong looked envious.

In addition, Sun Chuanzhong noticed that for the soldiers of the independent regiment, each mortar was operated by three people, the observer, the gunner, and the loader.

After a round of artillery bombardment, the advancing Japanese army was suddenly bombarded by artillery, and the speed dropped instantly.

The monk looked at it with binoculars for a while, and said with a smile: "The devil stopped the speed, this is to prepare to fight back with artillery fire, withdraw, move the artillery position, wait until the devil advances before continuing to harass."
