Powell's crew was fighting bloodily, and as it literally suggests, he and his men were scarred, but they were still fighting hard and did not give up resistance.

For a light wheeled armored vehicle, the limited defense can only ensure that it can escape in some low-intensity battles, this kind of vehicle was not originally used as an offensive weapon, although many German troops did do this on the French battlefield, it was also because the enemy faced had no anti-armor ability, and the troops were too weak.

The sudden collapse of the Nomura detachment completely angered the Japanese officers and soldiers of the Kuno squadron, and the incident happened too suddenly, and almost no one saw the process clearly, but it was obviously attacked by the other party, and Nomura was also a veteran of a hundred battles, and he didn't expect to sink in a gutter today.

Second Lieutenant Nakamura couldn't stay still, he lost his most elite detachment, and if he let the cunning Shina armored car run away again, then he would have to take all the responsibility.

"Brute! Shameless Shina soldiers. Nakamura jumped out of hiding and reached out to pull out the saber at his waist.

"Second Squad! Assault with me! Meyer! After shouting these words, the squad leader immediately jumped onto the road and sped towards the armored car.

Ono Caochang, who served as the team attached, had always had a sense of foreboding since the beginning of the war, and he was squatting on the side thinking about his thoughts, so he couldn't hold back the impulsive Nakamura, so he could only watch the second lieutenant squeak and run out alone.

You don't have to let the team leader die alone! "This damn fool!" Ono slammed his fist hard at the ridge under him, then stood up and drew his saber, pointing forward!

"Spike give!"

"Onward! Advance! ”

"It's dark and the card is loaded!"

"Onboard!"

For a moment, the entire team, except for the machine gun and grenadier group responsible for cover, all jumped out of their respective hiding places, followed by the two leading officers, and launched a bayonet charge towards the light armored vehicle parked in the middle of the road.

The Japanese soldiers were not puppets who were not afraid of death, but the officers thought that if the soldiers were convinced that it was for the sake of the Emperor and the Empire of Japan, they would not hesitate to die generously. The Japanese military uses various corporal punishment and propaganda methods to convince every soldier that he has departed from the level of ordinary people. They are His Majesty's soldiers, and dying for the sake of the Emperor and the country is their most glorious mission.

The SS was originally composed of the most committed Nazis, but during the expansion period, Himmler was a mixed bag. But among the rank-and-file personnel, most of them are ordinary party members with ideals and convictions, who believe that everything they do is for the revival of the German nation, and that the Führer is the only leader who can lead the people to accomplish this mission, and that maintaining the authority of the Führer and obeying the orders of the Führer is the natural task and mission of every SS member, and they are willing to give everything to this goal. Even the most precious of lives, our honor is loyalty, which is not a simple oath.

So at this moment, the two most fanatical armed forces in the world finally collided in this French colony. Although Sergeant Powell was a little hesitant at first, it was because he had to take responsibility for the safety and mission of his subordinates, and it was a wise choice to avoid and back down when the identity and strength of the enemy were unknown. But that doesn't mean he's a coward, and Sergeant Powell, a former Army veteran, knows how to kill. Unlike other veterans, he was a staunch Nazi who valued the honor of the community and the country above life. When it came time for him to attack, he was no weaker than anyone in the group.

The Nakamura squad on the way to charge was in just five seconds. Suffering a terrible blow, the 20-millimeter machine guns and parallel machine guns on the German armored vehicles spit out a hot rain of bullets that instantly knocked over an entire line of soldiers on the skirmishers' line, and the bursting 20-millimeter shells and machine-gun bullets smashed an entire detachment of soldiers into a mess of rotten flesh, and the ground was littered with broken limbs and broken heads. The Japanese soldiers, frightened by the sudden ferocious fire, had not yet heard the officer's order. has spontaneously lay down on the spot and hidden.

"Don't stop! Keep the assault on, forward! ”

Second Lieutenant Nakamura, who rushed to the forefront, was unscathed under this round of blows, and he stood abruptly in front of his subordinates lying on the ground with his saber in his hand. A loud command was given to them to get up and continue the fight.

"Red deer! Don't want to live anymore? A soldier lay on the ground and cursed secretly, it was obvious that this was not a target that could be taken by the courage of flesh and blood, the soldiers were all flesh and blood, and what they needed now should be heavy firepower.

"You cowards! Army servicemen's are not! Get up" Second Lieutenant Nakamura ran to a soldier in a rage and kicked the infantryman in the shoulder, and the poor recruit held his head and let his superiors inflict violence, but he was unusually determined to lie there and die and refused to get up.

At this moment, the side-by-side machine guns on the armored car began firing again, and this round of long point fire was very accurate, and in a way, this shot saved the survivors of Nakamura's detachment and the poor soldier. Second Lieutenant Nakamura was immediately hit by six bullets, his head and entire upper body were shattered, and his body fell headlong next to the private.

"Ahh The young soldier was covered with sticky blood and brains, and he screamed like a girl, and immediately jumped to his feet, turned his face and ran towards the starting position.

"Retreat! The whole squad retreats! Ono Cao shouted loudly, according to military regulations, he has now obtained the command of the Nakamura squad, and Ono, who has long been dissatisfied with the reckless approach of the second lieutenant, is relieved at this time, although the responsibility problem brought by the death of the commander is more troublesome, but for Ono, who is experienced in the army, there is room for maneuver.

Under Ono's leadership, the surviving soldiers of Nakamura's squad quickly withdrew to their starting positions, and the Japanese soldiers retreated so resolutely and decisively that no one even cared about the corpses of their comrades, leaving them lying on the ground, and the first assault of the Japanese army ended in failure.

Although they repelled an enemy attack, the Powell crew was completely in trouble, and although the engine was successfully started, the tires were seriously damaged by the enemy's bullets and could not move long distances. The wounded in the car provoked the blood of several SS troops. Since the superiors ordered him to stay, since this is the case, then for the honor of the SS, he will fight to the end with the other party. The armored car slowly turned around, facing the Japanese position with the strongest front armor, the turret also turned back to the front, and Powell closed the grenade net on the top, ready to fight the Japanese to the death.

The ensuing battle turned into a long-range target between the two sides, and the Japanese took advantage of their numerical advantage and began to fire at the German armored vehicles to stop further movements. They were waiting for heavy fire support from the rear to arrive, and then they would take down the stubborn target in one fell swoop.

The crushing defeat of the Nakamura detachment. He almost blew up Captain Kuno, who was happily calculating, and it wasn't until he listened to Ono's report that he realized that the other party was not a target that could be easily captured. In desperation, he could only truthfully report the battle situation to Morimoto and ask for the assistance of the brigade, but he still kept his hand, only saying that he needed the support of a Type 92 heavy machine gun team, and the 12th Squadron could complete the rest of the work independently.

While waiting for the heavy machine gun to arrive, Kuno was not idle, he ran to the front to take a closer look at the opponent. Captain Kuno crouched behind a rock, carefully exposing only one head. Holding a telescope in his hand, he looked at the armored vehicle in the distance, and found details that had not been mentioned in the previous reports of his subordinates.

"What's that?"

The blue-gray armored car's hull was riddled with bullets, and although there was no real penetrating damage, the armor plates had been crumbled. The paint and paint have also become mottled. After carefully checking up and down, Hisano found that there was no blue sky and white Japanese military emblem of the Zhina Army on the hull, but a small black double-edged axe-shaped logo under the front armor, as if there were two letters. It's too far away to see clearly. The white license plate is a style that has never been seen before, and the beginning is the Nanban letter SS, is it a new unit of the Chinese army?

In fact, the side of the car, near the rear of the car, is painted with a low-recognizable white hollow cross emblem of the German army. But along the way, it was partially obscured by dust and mud, but even if the Japanese soldiers saw it, they could not recognize it with their knowledge, they may know the famous black and white cross emblem of the German army, but this kind of German newest hollow cross composed of four white right-angled folded lines, the Japanese soldiers could only kneel and say Smith Marse.

In the end, Kuno lost the last chance to redeem the tragedy, and sent his squadron and even the entire brigade to the Yellow Springs Road. Kuno decided to put constant pressure on the target before the team's reinforcements arrived, and he still had the hope that he might be able to solve the other side alone. So this broken squadron, which only had only one and a half squads left, mobilized all the weapons at its disposal and launched round after round of attacks on the armored vehicles parked on the road.

Powell was able to return the color to the other side at first, but then the small armored car was caught in a rain of bullets that it could barely parry, and in addition to rifles and light machine guns, there were also 50 mm cast iron grenades that posed the greatest threat to the crew, and because the top of the turret of the armored car was open, and only a steel wire mesh was covered on the outside, it only took one small grenade of this kind to hit the roof of the car, and Powell and his men would be finished immediately, fortunately, this kind of thing has not really happened so far.

The most dangerous grenade smashed squarely on the front armor plate of the front of the car, this is the closest Powell has come to death in this battle, Germany's sophisticated material craftsmanship and bulletproof design showed its power here, except for leaving a large terrible scar on the turret and the armor cover of the driver's window, it did not bring more damage to the car, the crew members only received a strong concussion, because they had already put on the call headset before, so several people could still stay awake, but they were scared a lot.

But as the battle heated up, taking into account the consumption of ammunition, the frequency of return fire by armored vehicles began to gradually decrease. After receiving a grenadier at close range, the gunner was also hit in the shoulder by a bullet penetrating from the top of the turret, and the Japanese, apparently spotting this weakness in the defense of the armored vehicle, began to fire with their rifles in a parabolic trajectory beyond the distance.

Unable to stay where he was and be beaten, Powell ordered the driver to slowly retreat along the road with his armored vehicles, and at the same time used machine guns and coaxial machine guns to fire fiercely at the Japanese positions, trying to interfere with the enemy's firing. At this moment, the rhythmic firing of the 92 heavy machine guns sounded on the Japanese position, and the heavy fire of the Japanese army finally arrived. The steel-core armor-piercing projectiles fired from the heavy machine gun sent a spark on the steel plate of the armored car, and this thin layer of armor was finally overwhelmed and penetrated one after another, and the driver, Chuck, suffered heavy injuries to his legs and waist, and fell crooked in the driver's seat, losing the ability to continue driving the vehicle. The frontal armor of the turret was also penetrated, and Powell and the gunners could only dodge the rear of the machine gun and use a solid gun mount to block the bullets.

Finding that the opponent had stopped firing back, Kuno personally commanded the remaining Japanese troops to launch another assault on the armored vehicles, and the Powell crew was already in danger at this time.

But just as the Japanese troops were swarming towards the lone armored car, a dull sound of machine guns suddenly came from the other side of the road, and then four light whips composed of tracer bullets viciously pumped into the Japanese attack queue.
