Chapter 37

"This devil army is escorted by two 170-type road and rail dual-purpose armored vehicles. There is also a guard squadron of about [-] people with the vehicle. It is equipped with nine grenade grenades, nine crutches, and no heavy machine guns."

"The total number of guards will fluctuate, but will not exceed 200."

"There may be a small number of members of Special Team Yamamoto."

Seeing the steam coming from the devil's column not far away was getting closer and closer, and the armored vehicle leading the way had even run over the first sleeper bomb, Li Yunlong silently recalled the information given by Brother Mo.

"Type [-] rail-road dual-purpose armored vehicle."

"It weighs 8.7 tons, has an 84-horsepower gasoline engine, and has a maximum speed of 30 kilometers per hour on roads and 75 kilometers per hour on railways. It has rigid carburized armor, a welded structure, and a thickness of 8 mm. It is equipped with a 7.7 mm machine gun and has a crew of six."

"The military column is not equipped with weapons, but there are eight millimeters thick side steel plates at the key positions of the important compartments, so it is impossible to know which compartment the target officer is in."

In his thoughts, the devil's army column had already arrived at the predetermined position.

"Detonate."

Li Yunlong saw the opportunity, and let out a violent roar.

Beside him, several soldiers immediately pulled the detonating rope in their hands.

boom boom boom

Violent explosions rose from the rails one after another, and three of them directly enveloped the general column.

Fifty kilograms of dynamite, with this equivalent, is shot at close range. Even the enhanced version of M1 Abram of the later Uncle Sam will have to stop cooking, or even fall apart, let alone the army of the devils at this time.

Accompanied by the ballast scattered by the shock wave, the rails, and the devil's army column were directly derailed and overturned. The huge inertia caused the carriages to plow a long trace on the ground beside the rails, and one of the carriages was directly blown into two pieces. , the fragments fell to the ground, and through the binoculars, one could see the mutilated corpse of the devil inside.

The ghosts in the rest of the carriages were not much better, they all came out of the connection and scattered around the railroad tracks.

The guards were obviously elite and experienced in actual combat. Even if they were thrown dizzy, they quickly got out of the carriage, deployed defenses on the spot, alerted the surroundings, and rescued the guards' high-ranking officials.

"it is good."

At this scene, Zhao Gang couldn't help shouting.

A perfect blast stop.

But the other target, two Type [-] road and rail dual-purpose armored vehicles, did not go so smoothly.

The target of the military column is large, and it is easy to stop it, but the target of the armored vehicle is small and flexible. It needs extremely high blasting accuracy to blow it up, and the detonation delay of the traction rope is high, so the probability of success is relatively low.

Two armored vehicles, one near the center of the explosion, overturned on the spot, exposing the chassis, and part of the track was blown off, and six Japanese soldiers crawled out of it.

The remaining one was intact, but it seemed to be affected by the shock wave of the explosion, and there was no movement for the time being.

"Fire."

Li Yunlong continued to order.

He had expected this situation a long time ago, and he wasn't worried at all.

From the data point of view, the Devil's Type [-] armored vehicle is essentially two movable Type [-] heavy machine guns with steel plates. The firepower is not strong. As long as the Devil's infantry can be suppressed, cluster grenades can solve it.

Da da da···

Two Maxim heavy machine guns opened fire immediately, and the dense bullets flew 800 meters, splashing a series of dust beside the overturned devil army column. The Japanese soldier was killed on the spot.

····
"idiot."

The moment the train overturned, Captain Yamada, who was in charge of the guard, felt his scalp go numb.

There are three generals in this military column, a brigade commander, the chief of staff of the North China Front Army, and even General Gangcun who is about to return to China to be promoted to a general. If something happens here, his entire squadron will have to commit seppuku.

creak! ···

There was a harsh metal creaking sound, and Captain Yamada was thrown dizzily, and the torn iron sheet of the train on his head was cut with a long cut, but fortunately there was no other injury.

"gather."

He ignored the bubbling wound on his head, wiped the blood from his eyes, rushed out of the carriage, ran to the central carriage where the generals were, and at the same time called the squadron to assemble.

The fifty kilograms of explosives were really powerful, but the thick base plate blocked part of the power of the explosion. In addition, the delay of the rope detonation was high, and the devils were scattered in each compartment, so the first wave of explosions only killed less than twenty devils.

Puff puff··

Captain Yamada had just rushed to the vicinity of the middle carriages, and a series of soil debris suddenly rose around him. He immediately rolled over and hid behind the train.

Beside him, a devil soldier couldn't dodge and was killed on the spot.

"General."

Regardless of the death of his subordinates, Captain Yamada rushed to the carriage where the generals were.

When Yamada rushed here, Okamura, Miyano, and Naotomi Hattori had been protected by several ghost soldiers from Yamamoto's secret service.

In order to demonstrate the strength of the secret service team, Yamamoto specially stuffed a full combat team for the train guards. These devils were obviously more elite than Captain Yamada's squadron. Carriage, build a position.

"Captain Yamada."

Gangcun shouted to his guard officer:
"Call the hygienist!"

As a high-ranking official who is about to be promoted to a general, Gangcun naturally has three medical officers, and there are three of them, but the only compartment that was completely destroyed by the explosion shock wave just now is the compartment where the medical officer is located, and all the medical officers died on the spot .

Only then did Captain Yamada realize that although General Okamura was fine, General Miyano was in a coma with blood all over his body, blood was gurgling from his chest, and his intestines were also pouring out.

The injury is serious, but there is still hope, as long as the bleeding can be stopped, there is still a chance...
"Hygienist."

He hastily shouted at the top of his voice.

Hearing the squadron leader's order, in the rear compartment, two squadron health workers put down a wounded Japanese soldier in their hands and rushed over.

"Establish a defensive position, occupy all the carriages, use the carriages as a position to defend, and send a report to the headquarters in Taiyuan."

Yamada then began to deploy troops.

As Yamada, who once served in the Class A Division and has experienced many battles, he knows exactly what to do at this time.

····
"Zhu Zi, bang his mother."

On the other side, just after the first round of heavy machine gun fire was pulled, Li Yunlong then ordered Wang Chengzhu to fire.

boom boom boom

Wang Chengzhu had already arranged the position and set up the mortars. After receiving the order, he immediately let the two mortars fire at full speed.

60 mortar grenades weighing [-] kilograms covered the devil army train at a rate of [-] rounds per minute. For a while, explosions rose up around the devil army train carriage one after another, and fragments flew across.

"Prepare to attack."

Soldiers are so fast, Li Yunlong immediately ordered the first and second infantry groups to prepare for an attack.

····
The devil army is in formation.

"idiot."

The first wave of shells fell, and Yamada watched helplessly as the two health workers who were about to arrive were hit directly by a mortar shell, and then fell directly between the two carriages.

The medicine box was overturned, and the medicines fell to the ground.

"Hygienist!"

Too late to feel distressed, Yamada raised his voice and shouted again.

An infantry squadron had four medics, divided into two groups. Fortunately, the medics survived the first bombing attack.

Hearing the squadron leader's order, the two devil health workers at the back of the farthest car were about to rush over, but just as they stepped forward, a shuttle of heavy machine gun bullets hit, splashing a series of soil debris on the ground, and the surrounding cars jingled.

The two hygienists quickly backed away.

"Baga, come here!"

Yamada immediately cursed.

As a last resort, the two health workers had to step forward again, but, boom, at this time, a 60 mortar shell fell into the side of the two devil health workers again, and exploded directly at their feet.

So far, the devil health workers have been wiped out.

"idiot··"

Captain Yamada's eyes were about to burst.

"The enemy is attacking, it is the Eighth Route Army."

At this time, the first and second infantry groups had already begun to attack the Japanese army.

A team of more than 200 people lined up in a large skirmish line. Under the cover of heavy machine guns, they leaped forward layer by layer, and gradually approached the Japanese army with the help of natural field ridges, earth pits, ditch ridges and other bunkers.

"Shoot, shoot."

Too late to grieve, Yamada hurriedly prevented the troops from blocking.

The devil soldiers under Yamada's command are all old devils, with an average service life of more than three years and rich combat experience. Although they are inferior in strength and firepower, with the help of the military column as a cover and the support of Yamamoto's secret service team, they repelled the first wave attack.

But the cost is also heavy.

Faced with two heavy machine guns crossing from left to right, two mortars firing vertically, and two attack groups with more than 20 light machine guns assaulting, the Japanese suffered heavy casualties.

At this time, the second wave of attack has already begun.

"We must find a way to destroy their heavy machine guns and artillery, otherwise we will not last long."

A team leader of Yamamoto's special team shouted.

The condescending heavy machine guns blocked their retreat, so that they could only hide behind the carriages and could not move their positions, while the curved mortars were like a reminder.

The overturned carriage has no armor plate on the top, and they dare not enter the carriage.

"I know."

Yamada frowned.

How could he not know this, but now they have insufficient troops, lack of effective positions, insufficient firepower, and cannot launch an attack at all.But he also knew that if he didn't attack and destroy the enemy's heavy machine gun and artillery positions, they would be wiped out sooner or later.

Just when Yamada was struggling, the second Type [-] armored vehicle finally moved, its tracks moved, and the machine gun turret turned to the direction of the enemy's position and opened fire.

"The second team, the third team, follow the armored vehicles to attack."

Seeing this, Yamada was overjoyed, and quickly led two teams to attack with the armored vehicles.

····
Da da da···

A series of bullets hit around the heavy machine gun, and several of them hit the heavy machine gun. Although they were all blocked by thick steel plates, the machine gunner and the ammunition man subconsciously wanted to lower their heads to avoid it.

"Don't be afraid, keep shooting and hit the devils behind, they can't penetrate our steel plates."

Luo Youzhi's timely order allowed the machine gunner to continue firing.

Da da da····

A volley of Mauser-pointed shells rained down on the Japs following behind the armored vehicle.

····
"Baga, grenade, kill the enemy's heavy machine gun."

Following the armored vehicle's attack for less than 50 meters, they were shot back by heavy machine guns, and many people were lost. Yamada was so angry that he cursed again.

Armored vehicles can get close to the enemy's position, but they can't. The enemy's two heavy machine guns are crossfired, and an armored vehicle cannot protect them.

"Squadron leader, it's too far to reach."

A ghost veteran with a grenade said.

The range of the Devil's grenade is only 700 meters, and this is the maximum range. To hit it, you need to get close to within 500 meters. At this time, the Devil's train carriage is 800 meters away from the heavy machine gun position.

This distance is no problem for the Maxim (German MG8) machine gun with a heavy and stable tripod with a range of up to 2000 meters. With tracer bullets, the shooting accuracy is extremely high.

But for the devil grenadier, it is very desperate.

The terrain is flat, and the enemy's heavy machine guns are condescending. They really have no way to close the distance.

"Baga, attack from the side."

Yamada immediately led the troops to launch a second round of attack following the armored vehicles.

····
Railroad left.

"Follow me, take advantage of the little devil's eyes."

When Yamada led the team to launch the second attack and the rest of the devils were staring at the right side, Zhang Dabiao led the third group from the left side and quietly approached the devils' column under the cover of the field ridge.

····
at the same time.

Taiyuan.

"General, General!"

"urgent telegram!"

The devil's staff officer who received the call for help rushed into Yoshio Shinozuka's headquarters in a hurry.

···
North China Front Army Command.

"General, General!"

"urgent telegram."

A staff officer also reported the news of the attack to Jun Tada.
