I am helping

Chapter 3 Mine Array!
After Zhang Dabiao took the order, he immediately called over a dozen engineers and soldiers.

He unloaded the Dezao landmine from the mule cart, and then carried the box towards the dirt slope Li Yunlong pointed out.

The Eighth Route Army is also equipped with land mines, but most of them are land mines made in the border areas. Not to mention the small power, some even need to be pulled to make a sound.

Even with such landmines, the Eighth Route Army did not have any spares, and they could save as much as they could.

The soil slope Li Yunlong mentioned was between the Xinyituan camp and the Devils camp, close to Xinyituan's position.

The devils wanted to attack the Xinyi regiment's position, and the dirt slope was the only way to go, and the engineers were doing soil work behind the slope without being noticed by the devils.

Li Yunlong has fought against the devils for several years, and he has a clear understanding of the devil's tactics.

It is nothing more than the artillery bombarding the infantry, the infantry rushing after the artillery bombardment, and the artillery bombarding the infantry rushing.

This set of tactics seems simple and mindless, but the simpler and rougher it is, the more effective it is. The Chinese army, which is poorly equipped and lacks weapons and ammunition, has suffered a lot from the tactics of the devils.

The engineer soldiers carried the mine box and quickly touched the bottom of the slope. Two soldiers were in charge of guarding the ground, and the remaining soldiers picked up bayonets and shovels and started digging the soil.

These soldiers are all good at laying landmines. Although they have never seen German-made landmines, they are similar to land mines.

There is also an instruction manual produced by the system, which is equipped with text and pictures, which makes it clear at a glance.

Landmines are generally divided into pressure-fired, loose-fired, or tripped-fired mines. The German-made S-type landmine is loose-fired.

That is, after the enemy who stepped on the landmine let go of his foot, the landmine first bounced to waist height and then exploded, and the shotgun was shot horizontally at a deadly speed.

After about half a second, the main charge exploded at the right height, killing infantry and personnel.

The German-made S-type mine is the most famous among the jumping mines, because of its great power and anti-human shooting, it is notorious.

In less than 10 minutes, the soldiers buried all 50 landmines, removed the safety devices, and buried the mines with sand.

Then he cautiously withdrew from the minefields, and walked back to a new position with an empty box and a rifle in his hand.

"Report to the head of the regiment, all the mines have been buried!" The captain of the engineering team ran to Li Yunlong and reported.

"Okay!" Li Yunlong nodded and said loudly, "I'm afraid the devils are about to start shelling, soldiers pay attention to concealment!"

After a pause, Li Yunlong said again: "Pull the Italian cannon to the back, don't let the devil's cannon blow up!"

Immediately, several soldiers came up, led the mule and pulled the field artillery and shells to a hidden position behind.

After about 5 minutes, there was a piercing scream in the sky, and shells were coming.

boom--

A cannonball exploded more than [-] meters in front of Xinyi Group's position, setting off a cloud of mud and fog.

The first shell was a test fire.

More than ten seconds later, the whistling sound of multiple artillery shells sounded again, and the artillery shells fired from the devil's artillery position arced across the sky and landed on a new group of positions.

Boom boom, boom boom, boom boom—

The artillery shells fell one after another, and with the rumbling sound, the new group of positions was instantly shrouded in flames and smoke.

However, Li Yunlong had already been prepared for this, and had already withdrawn the soldiers to a safe position, leaving only a few observers on the ground.

At the same time, about 200 devils from a squadron launched a probing attack on the new regiment's position with rifles in hand.

This is the consistent tactic of the devils in combat. Before the general attack, a small group of troops is sent to make a tentative attack, so as to find out the number of troops and the configuration of firepower points of the opponent.

The devil commander then makes corresponding combat deployments based on the strength of the opponent. It is just a basic operation to use the artillery advantage to destroy the opponent's firepower.

After the shelling stopped, the devil's probing troops had approached the position 300 meters, and the devil's machine gunners were looking for a favorable position.

Quickly set up 2 crooked light machine guns and 1 Type [-] heavy machine gun, and opened fire towards the new group of positions.

da da da da...

The three machine guns shot out long tongues of flame one after another, and the machine gun bullets hit a new group of positions, and a cloud of mud mist bounced off.

Covered by machine gun firepower, the charging devils became even more arrogant, rushing towards the new group of formations screaming strangely.

It has to be said that the Fourth Brigade is known as the elite of the Japanese army, and the devil soldiers have a very high combat quality, and they have a fierce and fierce aura when they charge.

It didn't take long for the dense charging formation of the devils to reach the soil slope in front of the position, and then jumped off the soil slope one after another, continuing to charge towards the eighth route position with bayonets in hand.

Most of the more than 200 devils entered the minefields.

A ghost stepped on a landmine first with his right foot, and then quickly lifted it up and stepped forward.

Only a slight ding sound was heard, and the detonator ignited the propellant at the bottom of the mine, and then threw the cylindrical main body of the mine into the air at a height of 1 meter.

boom--

After 0.5 seconds, the explosives inside the mine are ignited.

Accompanied by the explosion of landmines, hundreds of steel balls and metal fragments shot out horizontally in all directions.

German shaped landmines are powerful enough to be fatal within a range of 20 meters and cause damage within a range of 100 meters.

There was a burst of screams from the devil's mouth, seven or eight devils fell to the ground, and the devil who stepped on the mine was even blown into two pieces.

Immediately afterwards, more and more devils stepped on the landmines, and a series of violent explosions sounded from the bottom of the slope.

The entire lower side of the slope was shrouded in flames and smoke.

Blood mist splattered, and pieces of flesh flew everywhere!

After more than 80 explosions in succession, as the gunpowder smoke dispersed, there were less than [-] devils left standing.

Quite a few devils were killed, and the devils who survived by chance completely lost their arrogance at the beginning, and looked at the surrounding ground in horror, their legs and feet were trembling.

"Don't panic, go back the same way!" The leader of the devil squadron was still calm, and immediately issued an order.

At this time, the devils had all entered the minefield, and it was not so easy to get out. Moreover, the footprints on the muddy ground were messy, and no one knew where they came from.

The squadron leader quickly made two retreat gestures, and the devil soldiers retreated cautiously.
Immediately afterwards, another devil stepped on a landmine, and there was a bang, and several devils screamed and fell to the ground.

The devil finally panicked, turned around and ran away in a panic, wishing his parents would give him two more legs.

As a result, more landmines were triggered, and devils were killed and injured one after another.

When there were more than 200 devils, only 20 or so devils escaped, and the remaining 180 devils all died in the minefields.

When the shelling was over, Li Yunlong returned to the position and looked through the binoculars, only to see more than 20 devils fleeing in embarrassment.

Looking in the direction of the minefield again, Li Yunlong couldn't help taking a breath immediately.

Through the field of vision through the telescope, Li Yunlong saw that the minefields were full of corpses of devils, stumped limbs and broken arms, and even the mud was stained red by devils' blood.

Zhang Dabiao touched it with the ghost-head machete on his back, looked over with a telescope, and was stunned.

"I'll be good..." Zhang Dabiao exclaimed, "What a powerful land mine!"
