Comrade, your ingredients are too complicated.

Chapter 53 The Eighth Route Army Has Poisonous Gas?

The Independent Regiment Headquarters of the [-]th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

Kong Jie and his three battalion commanders were sitting in a dilapidated house. At this time, they had just received an order directly from the headquarters.

"Exciting! Exciting! This battle is getting more and more interesting! It's actually a leapfrog command from the headquarters, and one of the troops in the entire base area has been mobilized!"

The battalion commander beside the kang nodded, no soldier could refuse the temptation of such a large-scale joint operation.However, he was also very interested in the inside story of this matter, so he tentatively asked:

"Regimental Commander, do you know who has such a big face? The order only says to cooperate with the friendly forces in the area to coordinate and feint to attract the devil's attention."

He thought for a while and continued to put forward his point of view.

"I think, this should be an order sent by the headquarters to cover a certain unit."

After listening to his battalion commander's analysis, Kong Jie knocked his cigarette pot helplessly.My battalion commander has no problem with his combat ability, but his curiosity is always so heavy.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense, kid? If you really want to know the inside story, after the mission is over, I will take you to the brigade headquarters to inquire about the news, and it will be over."

Kong Jie looked at the battle map on the table, and he used his fingers to draw the dots representing the devil's gun tower one by one.After making a decision in his mind, he announced the current deployment.

"Give me the order! The first battalion is assembled! The artillery turret of the target devil, bring our newly formed artillery platoon! This time I will lead the team personally, even if it is a feint attack, we must show momentum."

"The second battalion and the third battalion are stationed in place! Just in case the devils sneak in, if there is any friction, the troops must protect the common people first!"

An hour later, the First Battalion of the Independent Regiment was assembled.With his big blade on his back, Kong Jie led the soldiers away from the regiment headquarters in a murderous manner.

Outside the independent regiment's defense area, there is a devil's gun tower more than ten miles away from the nearby county town.

This is barely considered an important place for transportation, and the gun towers standing here have made great contributions to the anti-guerrilla of the devils and puppet troops.Moreover, this blockhouse is close to the railway, which perfectly fits the bunker as a lock in the devil's cage policy.

The blockhouse covers an area of ​​about 130 square meters, and the location is condescending, on the artificially padded high slope.The terrain is dangerous, it can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It is all built with big green bricks, and the grenade is just to tickle it.Even if you use explosives, it won't help if you use less.

The entire tower is 9.88 meters high, 8.4 meters long and 4.9 meters wide, with three and a half floors.

Unlike the cylindrical turret that many people think of, the main body of this turret is a cuboid.The reason for the three and a half floors is that there is a raised square watchtower in the east of the gun tower.

The observation deck is also equipped with searchlights, and there are many machine gun openings on the second and third floors of the gun tower. Although the shooting range is not very good, the quantity makes up for the quality.

Knowing that their gun towers were the Eighth Route Army's thorn in the flesh, the devils dug trenches around two meters deep and more than three meters wide, connected by a suspension bridge.Moreover, landmines and barbed wire fences were arranged. As long as ordinary troops dare to come, this place will become a man-eating beast.

There is a small group of devils and a small number of puppet troops stationed here.

The devils had cleared all the surrounding obstacles long ago. Today's weather is very clear, and they can clearly see the movement of people within a few kilometers around the observation deck.

The actions of the independent regiment did not hide from the devil's sight. The watchman sneered and looked at the Eighth Route Army assembled in the distance, with a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth:
"These gangs are here to die again? It seems that they are still the so-called regular army."

Since the construction of their artillery building, they have been harassed by the troops of the Republic of China almost every week, but every time it is safe and sound.Even if it is surrounded, there are wells and a large amount of food and fodder, as well as enough medicines, quilts and other military supplies.

This is why they can still have nothing to fear in the face of a battalion of enemies.

Five Taisho [-]-type and one [-]-type heavy machine guns are more than enough to deal with them.

Even if they rush forward with their lives, barbed wire and landmines can make them go forever!

So what if there are too many people?Those who come out to hang out depends on the background, and they will kill as many little bums who don't have any heavy weapons.

"All combatants are in their positions. When the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side comes into range, they can open fire freely. We have plenty of ammunition." Captain Guizi ordered.

But this time the Eighth Route Army's actions were different from the previous ones. They first tried to find out the position of the heavy machine guns in the gun tower, and then began to advance from the range that the heavy machine guns could not radiate.

Captain Guizi considered that even if the heavy machine gun was moved, the Eighth Route Army might change positions again, so he gave up this thankless idea.

Kong Jie led the first battalion to stop at a position 400 meters away from the gun tower, and began to secretly dig a bunker.

Before the attack, he specifically asked the nearby district team, and the comrades told him that the crooked handle in the gun tower had flaws in the range, and he could not treat it according to past experience.

This made the ghosts in the blockhouse feel helpless, like eunuchs visiting brothels.But he took a closer look and found that the enemy on the opposite side was no different from the past.

"It's really boring, can't you be a little innovative? There is no pressure at all, and I don't even want to ask for help."

Seeing this situation, Captain Guizi still didn't panic.He even felt bored, and ordered his subordinates to continue to observe, while he took out his treasures and began to appreciate them.

Looking at the devil's blockhouse 400 meters away, Kong Jie, an honest man, showed a sly smile like Li Yunlong's.

"Are you ready? Teach the devils a lesson today and let them see the wisdom of the working people."

"Of course!"

"Hey, little devils are lucky today."

By Kong Jie's side, dozens of fighters had already made preparations.They use semi-wet and non-dry firewood straw as the base material, and dry chili or something that can emit a pungent smell as the backbone.

Although the weather today is sunny, the wind is strong. Before attacking, they specially chose an upwind port.

Following Kong Jie's order, dozens of fires were ignited with soil gas at the same time, and the thick smoke was blown directly into the devil's gun tower along the wind.This spectacular scene can be seen even miles away.

Kong Jie looked at the earth poison with some disgust. The smell was so choking that he couldn't even smoke his pipe, but the effect was really good.

"Keep an eye on their shooting holes, and be careful that they move that heavy machine gun over! Once you find something, shoot me immediately! Don't save bullets, just hit me hard."

"Mortars aim at their mines for me, and make some big noises if the gun towers can't be penetrated."

"The second company is preparing for earth excavation. Even if it's acting, arrange earth planes and earth tanks for me. Don't forget their phone lines. I have to deal with them when I have a chance."

The devils were so smoky that they doubted life. There was no such thing as a gas mask in their blockhouse, and even if they used the trick of urinating, it would not have much effect.

They hastily moved their heavy machine guns to the side of the soil gas, and the light machine guns would fire first regardless of whether they hit or not, but the soldiers of the independent regiment had been waiting for them.

Da da da···

There is plenty of light during the day, and the shooting holes on the gun towers are quite obvious even at a distance of 400 meters.With the intensive care of the soldiers, a series of bullets hit near the firing holes, and even killed a machine gunner.

If the team leader hadn't been urging, the deputy shooter would not have stepped forward to take over the heavy machine gun.

Kong Jie behind the bunker held up his binoculars and stared at the opposite gun tower, marking out any threatening fire points.

"There is a crooked gun on the third floor, it's very arrogant to keep firing, call me!"

The devils in the gun tower were very anxious at this moment. The Eighth Route Army on the opposite side really did not fight according to the routine. If this went on like this, everyone in the entire team would die.

And the telephone line was cut off by the enemy, and they seemed to be alone.

"Idiot! Shoot! What are you afraid of!"

Another machine gunner next to him was wounded by the bullets of the Eighth Route Army, and the original ammunition man was unwilling to fill his position no matter what.He kicked the cowardly devil away, and grabbed the grip of the [-]-style by himself.

But he only finished two bullets before he was bruised by stray bullets.He quickly withdrew and ran to the lookout to launch the signal flare himself.

boom!
The mortar brought by Kong Jie opened fire.A mere 400 meters, and only for mine clearance, of course it is impossible to miss.

Mortars with low initial velocity, low projectile strength, and low penetration cannot cause structural damage to the Devil's gun tower.But the devil's landmine is a good thing. After detonation, the movement is very loud, and even the gun tower is shaking.

Under the watchful eyes of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, a red flare was shot crookedly into the air.

The devil squadron leader in this gun tower finally bowed his head to the fear of death, even if he would be slapped by the lieutenant who came to help him, he didn't care!

After all, living is worse than dying.

Although he didn't see with his own eyes how miserable the devils were in the turret, Kong Jie still found it very enjoyable.

Up to now, there are only three lightly wounded on his side, and the enemy has been tortured enough to ask for help. He is quite satisfied with this record.

But it can only go here, the task at this point is completed, and it's time to go to the next blockhouse.If it is bitten by the enemy's reinforcements, it will be in big trouble.

Moreover, it took almost half an hour to fight, and the consumption of the troops was a bit high. After all, the strategic mission was successfully completed, but the artillery building was not really shot down.

If it is really dead, it is not certain who loses and who wins.

"Report, our scouts found that the devils in the county were dispatched. The leading troops were mainly cavalry, and there was almost a squadron."

"They are rushing towards the gun tower along the highway, and there is another squadron of infantry gathering in the follow-up. It seems that the devils regard us as big fish."

A cavalry signalman reported the news.

Kong Jie looked at the sun above his head, and then he ordered to the nearby soldiers:

"Everyone is ready to retreat! The army of devils is coming!"

"Our mission is accomplished!"

"I ask everyone to transfer after 10 minutes."

　Sit up in shock
