......With the whistling sound of shells, the soldiers of the expeditionary force once again launched an attack on the Japanese "train fortress".

The attack on the "train fortress" was carried out by the new regiment, which used almost all the heavy equipment in their hands, including the request for artillery and aviation, to bomb the "train fortress" several times, but the "train fortress" that was piled up with sandbags by the Japanese army in front of the car and behind the car did not move.

In fact, it is not surprising that the trains in Myanmar are narrow-gauge trains, and their width is exactly 80 inches (about 2 meters) the width of American jeeps, so it is difficult for shells and planes to hit such a narrow line of defense, even if they hit the sandbags covered by the train, it will disperse the energy of the bomb army, and then there is a thick steel plate at the bottom of the train to support it.

When the smoke and dust dissipated, it was found that only the sandbags piled up in front of the train had changed, but the trains behind it were not affected.

The advantage of the Japanese army is greater, people can be hidden in sandbags on the roof of the car, people can be hidden in the carriage, and people can also be hidden under the train, and the bullets are divided into upper, middle, and lower layers, although the firepower of Japanese equipment is far inferior to that of American equipment, but the Japanese army is superior in marksmanship, so the new regiment has failed to take him down several times when it launches attacks.

"Bang!" With a bang, a bullet was fired from the loose chamber of the gun.

The one who was knocked down was a Japanese machine gunner, although the machine gun had a lot of firepower, but because it needed to strafe and reload, the shot hole should not be too small, which gave the loose bullet a chance to pass through the hole and kill the Japanese soldiers behind...... In fact, Zhang Chi only had a very short chance, and his position was not directly in front of the machine gun hole, which made it difficult for him to see the Japanese machine gunners.

So Zhang Chi could only wait, waiting for the Japanese machine gunner to shift and shoot a bullet at the moment when he moved to the twisted body.

After firing a shot, Zhang Chi retracted his head and ran along the trench for more than ten meters, and then cautiously poked out his rifle.

He had to do this, the Japanese army had accurate marksmanship, and at this time they had the geographical advantage of "train fortress", so they could aim with confidence. So it can almost be said that every Japanese soldier is a sniper.

"Bang!" Another bullet flew away.

This time, it was an ordinary Japanese soldier who was killed...... At this time, Zhang Chi was no longer picky, and it was not easy to kill an ordinary soldier in this kind of "train fortress" situation, and it could even be said that it was even more difficult to kill an ordinary soldier, because they could shoot at the Chinese army with only a small hole in the sandbag, and it was still a dozen and one accurate, even if the Chinese army was holding a machine gun to shoot at him, he was afraid that he would be blocked by sandbags.

The reason why Zhang Chi was able to hit this target was because the shaking sandbag happened to block the view of the Japanese soldier, and the Japanese soldier did not choose to change positions, but chose to reach out and push the sandbag away...... Almost as soon as he pushed the sandbag open, a flaccid bullet flew towards his head.

"Bang"

This time it was supposed to be a Japanese officer who was killed. Although Zhang Chi did not know his military rank, it was not something that an ordinary soldier could do for the Japanese army, which was short of supplies.

It should be said that the officer was careful not to let the binoculars peek out of the sandbag, but he ignored a little...... This is the east side, and the sunlight shining on the telescope lens will reflect through the hole, so Zhang Chi doesn't want to shoot a bullet at that hole.

However, Zhang Chi's victory in sniping did not change the outcome of the battle, and after sacrificing more than a dozen soldiers, the attack of the third company was still defeated by the Japanese army.

This is not to say that the three companies were not resolute and brave...... In fact. After the training of Sun Brabeng, the Chinese army has to some extent accepted some of the ideas of the American instructors, that is, to stop blindly charging the enemy without paying attention to the lives of the fighters, as before.

On this point, Zhang Chi believes that the Americans are right, and the era of blindly emphasizing bravery and spirit on the battlefield has passed by the time the machine gun appeared.

Of course. This is not to say that you don't need courage to fight, the battlefield is a place where courage is needed at all times, but it is necessary to find a balance between courage and results.

If the enemy's defenses are not tight and the firepower is not strong, then it may be right to emphasize courage to charge down the enemy's defenses.

But if the Japanese firepower is strong enough to inflict a large number of casualties on the assault troops, they can even wipe them out. Emphasizing courage and blind charging would be a fool's errand, and that folly would eventually lead to the collapse of one's own troops.

"How's it going?" Wang Mazi ran to Zhang Chi's side and poked his head out to take a look.

"Tuanza!" Zhang Chi shook his head and said, "The devil's defensive cloth is too strong. It's hard to gnaw down! ”

"Alas!" Wang Mazi sighed: "This ****, if only it was commanded by General Zheng from the beginning!" ”

Zhang Chi understood the meaning of Wang Mazi's words, this railway station was still here during the first surprise attack of the expeditionary force, and it was very easy, the 113th regiment was captured here, but later due to insufficient troops and no reinforcements, not only did not hold the position but was beaten back by the Japanese army.

As a result, after the Japanese recaptured the station, they used the train to transform it into an impregnable train defense.

If Zheng Dongguo had been in command from the beginning, there might not have been such a line of defense in front of him.

"Think of a way!" Wang Mazi was a little annoyed and untied the wind and discipline buckle on his collar: "This is the key point to win Bamo!" ”

Zhang Chi understood what Wang Mazi meant...... The railway station is located in the center of Bamo, and if the railway station can be taken, it can easily divide the Japanese army in Bamo into two.

More importantly, after taking the railway station, it was possible to attack the Japanese lines in other directions from the flank and render them useless.

To put it simply, taking the railway station is likely to lead to the collapse of the entire defense system of the Japanese army.

But the Japanese are not fools, and they know this, which is why they will invest more troops here and do enough defense.

But what way can we break through this steel defense now?!

Zhang Chi had also heard the Burmese talk about this battle in modern times, so he knew about this railway station...... Despite the heavy casualties of the Chinese army, the "train fortress" was never captured, and it even became a model for Japanese defense. Until the end of the war, the Japanese troops in other directions were annihilated, and the Japanese troops at the railway station were almost exhausted before they were taken, which also shows the strength of the defense of the railway station.
