***********
Half an hour later, the expeditionary force had to stop the assault on the airfield.
Of course, the airfield could not be defeated, the Japanese army's defense was tight, the quality was good, the equipment was strong, and the various parts were very well coordinated, so the expeditionary force did not recapture an inch of land from the Japanese army except for leaving a few hundred corpses.
Of course, only the three battalions of the 600 regiment, which served as the main attacker, were exceptions.
The third battalion of the 600th Regiment is the main force, and their equipment is no worse than the 38 big cover in the hands of the little devils, and the density of machine guns, heavy machine guns and other equipment is basically the same as that of the Japanese army...... This is also one of the reasons why the 200th Division was able to defend twice the Japanese army head-on.
(Note: The main force of the 200th Division is equipped with Soviet-style weapons, including two tank regiments, most of which are Soviet-style T26 tanks.) The engineering regiment and other non-main forces, because the coastline was blockaded by the Japanese army, there was a shortage of domestic materials, and the advanced equipment that could be used was far less than that of the troops, so they could only adopt the principle of good steel and use it on the blade to equip the Hanyang-made with poor performance. )
Under the cover of artillery and light and heavy machine guns, the third battalion did break through the Japanese defense line, but unfortunately the Japanese army quickly transferred reserves and forced the third battalion back.
Zhang Chi naturally didn't have the heart to pay attention to these, at this time he only knew that he was huddled under the tree with a gun and shivering, and he could even hear the sound of his teeth fighting.
It's no wonder that Zhang Chi, from modern times, has he ever seen such a scene: splashing blood, corpses all over the ground, stumps and broken arms that have been blown up everywhere......
Although this kind of scene is not unfamiliar in modern TV movies, it is completely different to be in the middle of it, and it is a real battlefield, and to see those living beings turn into cold corpses in the blink of an eye.
It is said that human life matters, but here, human life is often so cheap that it is just a bullet or a piece of shrapnel.
At this time, in addition to the screams and pain of his comrades when they were shot and fell to the ground, Zhang Chi's mind was thinking...... If the three platoons were not used as a fire cover unit just now, then it is very likely that he would be lying on that open ground and becoming a corpse at this time.
In fact, it was not only Zhang Chi who was so frightened that he couldn't do it, but the other veterans in the engineering regiment were also in a heavy mood.
It can be said that the first company of the assault just now suffered heavy casualties, and the two platoons that rushed up were only able to come back alive with only 30 people, and although the company commander came back, he was carried back.
In other words, more than half of the casualties of a company of 100 people in just such a short time.
"Platoon commander, it's not a way to fight like this!" The fellow townsman leaned over to the devil and said, "If it is useful to fight like this, then it is nothing for me to give up this life, but a few of us charged and didn't even touch the side of the devil......"
"Fuck your grandma's less fucking bullshit!" The Adversary interrupted his fellow villagers and said, "Didn't you hear what the boss said? Our task is to contain the devils and cooperate with the attack of the three battalions! ”
"Why do you want the three battalions to attack?" Xiao Zhejiang was a little unconvinced when he heard this.
"Do you have the ability to attack?!" The demon replied angrily: "What did the fellow villager say just now? We can't even touch the side of the devil with this bit of equipment, and we still attack the main one?! ”
"But......" The fellow townsman still wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh heavily.
Lao Ha said sullenly: "If you continue to fight like this, I'm afraid that the engineering regiment will be defeated!" ”
"If you don't fight, you have to fight!" The Adversary replied, "Who let this airport be lost in our hands?!" ”
This time, everyone was silent.
Zhang Chi, who was curled up on the side, shivered like an electric shock...... If you don't fight, you have to fight? This can't be done, if the engineer regiment is defeated, can it still be there? I'm afraid I'll have to send it to feed little Japan with guns like everyone else!
But what can be done now?
If you don't fight, you can't do it, and you can't escape as a deserter, so if you want to survive, you can only find a way to recapture the airport.
But the little devil's combat effectiveness is so strong, it is not easy to recapture the airport.
At this time, Zhang Chi suddenly remembered that the adversary had said before that the engineer regiment had left more than a dozen truckloads of gasoline at the airport before retreating......
At that moment, Zhang Chi cheered up and asked the devil: "Platoon...... Platoon commander, before the devil came, we had more than a dozen truckloads of gasoline at the airport that didn't have time to be fried? ”
"What's wrong with that?" The adversary replied angrily: "When is it, still care about gasoline?!" ”
"Platoon commander!" Zhang Chi then asked, "Where did the gasoline go?" ”
"Hey, I said seven squad leaders!" The demon looked at Zhang Chi and scolded with an incredible expression: "What's wrong with you today?" We're about to be glorious, do you still care where this gasoline goes? Scared of you! ”
In fact, it wasn't just the demon who didn't understand, but the other warriors around him also looked at Zhang Chi with confused faces.
"Platoon commander, listen to me." Zhang Chi ignored the eyes of the soldiers and explained: "The devil will definitely not leave the gasoline at the airport, on the one hand, the devil needs this gasoline, these are good aviation fuel, and the devil can keep it for their plane." On the other hand...... Leaving this petrol at the airport is also a danger to themselves. So they're definitely going to get the gasoline out! ”
"So what?" The Adversary asked rhetorically.
"If we can find this batch of gasoline......" Zhang Chi said and looked in the direction of the airport.
Suddenly, the warriors, including the Adversary, understood Zhang Chi's intentions.
"Good way!" The townsfolk first agreed: "The trees in the open field by the airport have been bulldozed by the devils, and it is still a steep slope, so if we roll the oil drum down like this...... That's the burning devil! ”
"This is a good idea!" Xiao Zhejiang nodded and said: "This is better than any equipment, the devil can't stop it if he wants to!" ”
"His grandmother's!" The adversary couldn't help but stand up, patted Zhang Chi on the shoulder and praised, "You kid is okay!" ”
"But ......," Lao Ha said with a frown, "This area is full of jungles, how do we know where the devil hid the gasoline?" ”
In this way, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
Of course, what Lao Ha said makes sense, Myanmar has many mountains and trees, and looking for something in such a large jungle is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
But Zhang Chi doesn't think so.
"Brethren!" Zhang Chi said confidently: "There are only two roads in this airport, one leads to Tonggu in the south and the other leads to Pingmanna in the north, which direction do you think the little devil will transport the gasoline?" ”
"Oh!" The warriors nodded their heads when they heard this.
"Seventh squad leader!" The adversary said with a bang: "If this thing can be done, you will become the savior of our group!" ”
