Chapter Fifty-Nine: Ending the Takeoka United
"Let's go, let's go" changed into the standard equipment of the mercenaries when they went out to war, Tang Lei led a team of mercenaries to meet the withdrawn Jewish soldiers and began to infiltrate the Japanese camp. The Japanese patrols were taken back, and the Jewish soldiers scattered around the Japanese camp lost their role, night fighting was not the strong point of these big-nosed Jewish soldiers, and the next to sing the leading role were mercenaries and heavy machine gun companies, so Zhao Zhi took back the Jewish soldiers who were split into squads.
"Okay, well done, all have a good rest, after dawn, we still have a tough battle to fight" Xiao Ziyun, who was tired like a dead dog, was carried back by two Jewish soldiers, Zhao Zhi comforted him with good words, and the attack on the Japanese patrol team also caused casualties in the Jewish team, and the Jewish teams that were scattered out came back one after another, and nearly 1,800 people in 6 companies only came back less than 1,700 people, Xiao Ziyun was tired because he ran hard when he was transferred.
Tang Lei's mercenary team only has 14 people, all of whom are fluent in Japanese, considering that the Japanese mountain artillery is in their camp, Tang Lei plans to sneak into the Japanese camp in disguise this time to find out. The Japanese soldiers who were killed by the Jewish team in the field were everywhere, and the patrols that retreated back to the camp had no time to collect their corpses, Tang Lei and they easily got enough Japanese military uniforms and firearms and equipment for them to disguise, but fortunately, it was still the middle of the night, and the Japanese soldiers in the camp would not notice that there were pistols with silencers hidden in their uniforms.
"Go" Tang Lei straightened the soft military hat on his head, and was the first to get out of the grass with the command knife on his waist, and behind him were 13 mercenary team members disguised as ordinary Japanese soldiers. The fire in the Japanese camp is still burning, but the Japanese troops in the camp have already opened the defense line and are defending it strictly, Tang Lei When they wiped the edge of the Japanese camp to search, they rarely encountered the Japanese army, even if they met a few Japanese soldiers sporadically, they were all killed after Tang Lei's interrogation.
"Their mountain artillery is on the south side of the camp?" The information that Tang Lei and the others brought back made Zhao Zhi have a headache, the south of the Japanese camp was a large open field, and there was not even a little lawn vegetation, and it was indeed a little difficult for the thunderous people to get close to that place. Although Tang Lei and his people used mortar shells to cause a big explosion and fire of Japanese supplies, the south side of their camp was silent, and there was not even the slightest riot, as if it was a pool of stagnant water. Zhao Zhi had the intention of bombarding the camp on the south side with mortars, but unfortunately due to the distance and terrain, there was great danger in both American and Japanese mortars.
"Yes, we have captured a few Japanese soldiers and officers have asked, and their answers are the same, the 4 75 mountain guns brought by this Japanese wing are indeed on the south side of the camp, and one of the most elite brigades of the Japanese wing is in their south camp, which is responsible for defending the safety of those mountain artillery and heavy weapons" According to the information obtained from the interrogation of the prisoners, Tang Lei squatted on the ground and drew a sketch of the Japanese camp for Zhao Zhi, and drew a triangle on the south side of the camp, representing the location of those 75 mountain guns.
"This position is really interesting, the Japanese are willing to spend a lot of money, and actually use a brigade to guard their heavy weapons, but why do they not use their heavy weapons to guard the camp when they are camped, but to concentrate them together?" Zhao Zhi raised a new question, after the normal camp, the deployment of weapons will be adjusted to improve the defense of the camp, but this group of Japanese soldiers made the opposite decision, which is really a bit unexpected.
According to his confession, this Japanese army wing is a field unit, and the mountain artillery unit to which they originally belonged was destroyed in the confrontation with the national army, and now these four 75 mountain guns are temporarily transferred from an artillery wing. Commanding them is an artillery Shaozuo, I heard that this person is very powerful in the background of the Japanese army base camp, he didn't listen to the words of the Japanese wing commander, and the concentration of mountain artillery is the thing that the artillery Shaozuo has made up, probably because of our attacks in the past few days, I feel that it is safer to huddle together" Tang Lei's words carried a hint of a smile, when he first heard this, Tang Lei almost turned his back on without laughing.
"There is such a strange thing in the Japanese army" Zhao Zhi also smiled, after a long time, there are also guys in the Japanese army who rely on the background to enter the army and mix qualifications, such a person can actually be in charge of a mountain artillery squadron, for Zhao Zhi, this is a good thing. "Originally, I was thinking about killing those artillerymen and getting these 75 mountain guns, but now it seems to be a bit difficult. In this way, Leizi, you take a group of people to escort those mortars to the perimeter of the south side of the Japanese camp, and I will start a feint after receiving the signal here, and you will take the opportunity to shell their heavy weapons area, and after knocking out their heavy weapons, it will be the beginning of our attack on all fronts."
There are still more than three hours, the sky will light up, after dawn, the advantage of the thunder will be reduced, Zhao Zhi needs to complete the preparations before the attack on the whole line within these three hours. "Got it, we will shoot a signal flare when we arrive at the position" Tang Lei hurriedly left with people, and all the 30 mortars in Zhao Zhi's hands were handed over to him to take away, and dozens of mortar shooters and hundreds of ammunition men were taken away by him.
"Move lightly, lightly" Tang Lei took the group of artillery around a long circle, and it took more than an hour to touch the periphery of the southern area of the Japanese camp, although the terrain here is open, it is not a good artillery position, but now there is not much time left for Thunder, Zhao Zhi and Tang Lei have no heart to consider the consequences of exposing the artillery position. The artillerymen huddled together to lay down the pedestal of the mortar, which was a new tactic for the Thunder Artillerymen, and the mortar could only exert its maximum shelling effect when it was used intensively.
Everything was ready, Tang Lei tapped a few rhythmically on the microphone of the walkie-talkie with his fingers, and after the two mercenaries 300 meters away from them received the code, they took out their signal guns and fired a red signal flare into the sky. After Zhao Zhi, who was in front of the Japanese army, saw the red signal flare rising into the air, he immediately ordered a Jewish company that was acting as a feint to open fire to attract the attention of the Japanese army.
The Browning heavy machine guns on both sides of the Japanese camp received the order to start firing, and the frenzied rain of bullets rushed into the Japanese camp, and the large-caliber heavy machine gun bullets hit the person and could directly tear the body in half, if a few bullets were hit, the body of the bullet would be torn into pieces. The Japanese troops in the camp were temporarily suppressed by the heavy machine guns, but the heavy machine guns arranged by Zhao Zhi on both sides immediately began to extend their firepower, and the ultra-long range of the heavy machine guns was enough for these heavy machine gun shooters to plow the entire Japanese camp.
Just imagine what a spectacular scene it is for dozens of heavy machine guns to fire collectively, Thunder has never used heavy weapons in the previous two days of raiding and harassing battles, but the strong firepower that was suddenly exposed at this time made Takeoka Sukeo have some heart palpitations, he didn't expect that Thunder, who has been attacking and harassing battles, would actually have such a large number of heavy machine guns, and their firepower strength is comparable to the firepower of his own team.
"Immediately go and inform the artillery team, provide us with artillery support, go quickly" There are also mountain artillery, there are still trump cards in their hands that have not been used, as long as the mountain artillery brigade begins to fire at the heavy machine guns on both sides, and in coordination with the charge of the infantry, it is not difficult to break the attack of the thunder. Before Jun Cao, who received the order, ran far, Wu Gang and the others heard a deafening explosion from the position of the mountain artillery brigade on the south side of the camp, followed by a large group of fireballs and smoke rising into the air.
"Oops" Takeoka secretly screamed, and before he could speak, there was another burst of shell explosions on the south side of the camp, followed by a rumbling series of explosions, just like when the east side of the camp exploded, and several huge mushroom-shaped fireballs rose over the south side of the camp. "Start the attack, pay attention to your own safety" The well-fed Jewish soldiers began to attack the Japanese camp with their weapons, and the fires everywhere in the Japanese camp provided them with target guidance, this was the first large-scale collision between automatic weapons and bolt-action weapons, and in the dense rain of bullets fired by Jewish soldiers, the recalcitrant Japanese soldiers in the camp were forced to retreat again and again.
"Boom" a puff of white smoke rushed into the camp, a firepower point arranged by the Japanese army was blown up in the air by rockets, several Japanese soldiers howled and fell out, the thunderous offensive was far sharper than Takeoka Kaio imagined, and the camp that he thought was safe and reliable was as fragile as paper under the thunderous attack. Losing the advantage of artillery fire, the Takeoka Wing was defeated one after another, and by the time it was dawn, most of the camp had fallen into the hands of Thunder, and even the deputy wing commander Aoki Ryuichi, who was wounded by the shelling, was also taken prisoner by the Jewish soldiers.
"Put down your arms and surrender, otherwise we will open fire" As the battle progressed, Tang Lei and the others moved the mortar group forward to the remnants of the Japanese army after successfully ending the Japanese mountain artillery brigade. Nearly 1,000 surviving Japanese soldiers were blocked in the eastern corner of the camp where the explosion had occurred, relying on the trucks that had been burned to the wreckage to resist stubbornly, staring at a pair of bloodshot eyes, and the extremely embarrassed wing commander Takeoka Sutsuo was among them.
"Damn, Lang Fei Laozi's saliva" Tang Lei shouted in Japanese for a long time, and the Japanese army did not move except for a few bullets in response. "Fire, blow up this place for Lao Tzu to finish" After a burst of intensive shelling, the gunfire that had been sounding all night finally stopped, and the entire Japanese camp had been taken over by thunder, except for some prisoners captured alive, the wounded Japanese soldiers who were lying in a pool of blood screaming again and again.
