Chapter 29: Ambush
Yang Village.
Half past three in the middle of the night.
"Nani?"
Oshima Kan, who had just taken a nap, looked at the officer in front of him who reported the news to him, and then looked at the location of Li Yunlong marked on the map, and his tone was full of disbelief:
"Li Yunlong is planning to ambush me on the highway?"
"Are you sure?"
This thing is so incredible that Oshima Kan can't help but have doubts in his heart.
Li Yunlong actually planned to ambush him on the highway.
Moreover, the location of the ambush is still the road in the open area.
There are no high mountains on either side of the road, and there is no narrow terrain, and there is no suitable highland firepower point.
Is this eating leopard gall?
Or is it a broken brain?
"Yes."
The officer who followed the clues left by Zhu Ziming all the way said affirmatively: "Although they sent people to clear the traces of footsteps, I still found their footprints, and finally I followed them all the way to here." ”
The officer pointed to a point on the map, which was the location where he had just said that the independent regiment was going to set up an ambush, and with a point, he continued:
"I found more traces of footsteps around, all new, no more than a day, and there was a lot of fresh soil dug up around, it was obvious that this was the Eighth Route Army building an ambush position."
"In addition, according to the information left by the one, they also joined up with the artillery unit, and they also carried a large amount of ammunition and baggage, obviously, in preparation for battle, so..."
One piece of news, especially the information that came out of Zhu Ziming at the end, made Oshima Kan have to admit that Li Yunlong did intend to ambush him on the road, and it was in a position that was very unsuitable for ambush warfare.
"But, he asked, what did you choose here?"
Oshima Kan is still puzzled.
If it were him, he would definitely not choose the ambush location here, no, as long as there is a little military commander, he will not put the ambush location here, and it is still in the case of a disadvantage in strength.
After a day of fighting yesterday, he suffered a lot of losses, but Li Yunlong was definitely uncomfortable. The strength of both sides is still his advantage. His stockpiles of weapons and ammunition are also very adequate.
Ambushing here is completely looking for death.
The officer who reported did not speak, and quietly looked at Oshima Kan and thought.
Turning on the flashlight, Oshima Kan looked carefully at the map on the table, his eyes spread to the perimeter of the ambush site, and after a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his tone suddenly realized:
"I see."
"I see."
"Li Yunlong deliberately chose this place to ambush, and this place is indeed not suitable for ambush warfare, so he deliberately did the opposite, intending to catch me off guard and make up for the gap in combat effectiveness through sudden dense firepower."
"He is worthy of being the one who has made the Imperial Army suffer many losses."
Oshima Kan asked himself, if there were no spies, if he hadn't sent someone to follow him, he wouldn't have thought that someone would be ambushed here, and he would definitely not strengthen his guard when he passed, and he might really suffer a loss.
Li Yunlong's unit itself has very strong firepower, although the accuracy of the mortar is low, but it can burst out of dense fire in a short time, coupled with a large number of machine guns, close and fierce fire, combined with mines, can cause huge casualties to his troops. At that time, because the distance was too close, his artillery did not have time to deploy.
He even guessed Li Yunlong's tactics.
However·····
This Li Yunlong, he wouldn't think that he had this strength, right?
"Command."
The corners of Oshima's mouth were hooked, and his tone was confident: "Tomorrow, the brigade will return to Shou County according to the scheduled route, however, the troops should strengthen their vigilance, and pay attention to mine protection, so that the armored squadron can march in the front." ”
Didn't he, Li Yunlong, want to ambush?
Then I'll get into your ambush circle and see if you can withstand the onslaught of the armored squadron.
The ambush point you choose, but the armored fighting vehicles can drive on.
"Hey."
The officer bowed his head and should be.
······
In the wee hours of the morning.
Between the roads, on the ambush positions of the separate regiment.
"Hey, hey, hey..."
Li Yunlong held a cigarette in his mouth and asked Zhang Dabiao: "How is it, there is no accident." ”
"No problem."
Zhang Dabiao raised his head and smiled very sinisterly: "The news that we are going to ambush here, I have already told the little devil, that Zhu Ziming, has been leaving marks along the way, this kid is also too timid, I let him be the queen of the palace, and he only dares to make a few casual noises." ”
"Fortunately, the devil is not stupid, he sent a person to follow behind us, this devil is good, he tracked all the way to a position only more than three hundred meters away from the position, just outside the observation distance of the secret sentinel, if it wasn't for Wang Gensheng to follow this devil all the way, we really wouldn't have found it."
"Not bad."
Li Yunlong nodded:
"The terrain here, the two wings can't be interspersed and then interspersed."
"So, after the little devil knows that we are going to ambush here, he will definitely continue to walk along the road, deliberately get into our ambush pockets, and then fight us here, and use armored vehicles to rush directly over and scatter our positions."
"When the time comes, let's show this heavy machine gun again."
"Hey, hey, hey..."
Grand Master Li smiled equally sinisterly.
This kind of gentle terrain, like the plains, is an excellent terrain for armored vehicles to exert their strength, and the little devils will inevitably fall for it.
If there is no M2 heavy machine gun, an armored combat vehicle charging at full speed, and there are ghost soldiers guarding it, the mortar can't be blocked at all, and it is difficult for the Type 92 to hit a high-speed moving combat vehicle, and the kind of thick one may not be able to penetrate it, and the only way is to let the death squad carry a grenade.
But now, with a large-caliber heavy machine gun and even armor-piercing shells, two hundred meters away, you can beat the little devil chariot into a sieve.
"It seems that there is a spy in the regiment, which is a good thing."
Li Yunlong finally sighed.
"I don't know if this kid can attract Yamamoto Kazuki too."
Zhang Dabiao rubbed his hands.
Yang Village's revenge has not been avenged!
"That's right."
Li Yunlong finally said: "Let that kid Yansheng divide a few cannons to deal with the devil's mountain artillery, the devil will definitely put the artillery last, it will take a while for the cavalry battalion to go around, let the artillery greet first, and I will squint for a while." ”
Even after working all night and his sleepy eyelids trembled, Grand Master Li still remembered the artillery against the devils.
······
The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning.
Oshima Kan took his troops, and after joining up with the armored squadron at the foot of the mountain, he drove mightily towards Shou County.
At this moment, Suga Oshima is in a good mood.
One of the main tasks given to him by Taiyuan was the opportunity to eliminate the main force of Li Yunlong's troops, and it was provided by Li Yunlong himself, which made him doubly happy, and he was looking forward to the upcoming battle, so he deliberately adjusted the formation.
At the front, there is a group of livestock used to clear mines, dragging heavy loads, sweeping the ground, any explosives will be detonated, and in the rear are four Type 95 tanks, this kind of tank armor is very thick, and he also specially added a layer of sandbags on the outer layer, even if Li Yunlong's Type 92 is impossible to penetrate the more than ten mm thick armor, after all, Type 92 does not have armor-piercing shells, and high-explosive shells are not good at all.
The 37-mm rapid-fire gun on the Type 95 tank can destroy any cover.
As for mortars and death squads, as long as the tank runs, the mortar simply cannot hit. And the death squads, which are absolutely impossible to approach, will be wiped out by the imperial samurai next to the chariot.
At the end of the team is the mountain artillery unit, and when the front fights start, the mountain artillery unit can immediately provide support.
This battle is foolproof.
However, there are still some flaws in Oshima Kan's happiness.
Because until now, he has not received a telegram from Fukai Shaosa.
It's been more than a day, and there has been no news from the team he sent to attack the ammunition depot of the Independent Regiment led by Shenjing Shaozuo, although his order was to return directly to Shou County after the attack was successful, but Shou County had a radio station to contact them.
Also, why don't you take a liaison to come and inform me?
Did something go wrong?
But after thinking about it, he felt normal again, after all, it had only been more than a day, and if the battle dragged on a little bit, the other party would probably not have returned to Shou County.
The team moved on, puffs of smoke and dust rolling up from the tracks and tires.
The development of things was exactly what Oshima Suga expected at first, and there was only a small accident.
After entering Li Yunlong's ambush position, the livestock in the front row swept away several huge mines, three clouds of smoke rose into the sky, and scattered rubble even injured several imperial soldiers, and then dense machine-gun fire suddenly burst out all around, mixed with this dense mortar and grenade in the middle.
Dense firepower was overwhelming.
The opponent's ambush position was just over a hundred meters from the road.
At the beginning, even if there was preparation, the troops were dispersed very openly, but they were also caught off guard, and the casualties were not small, which made Oshima Kan startled, and the firepower of the independent regiment was still far beyond his expectations.
Very unexpected.
The distance of more than 100 meters was within the firing distance of the shell guns, and this time, Li Yunlong gathered the strength of three battalions, more than 100 light machine guns, plus hundreds of shell guns, and fired at full speed, plus more than 10 mortars fired at the same full speed.
Fortunately, the devil quickly reacted, the forward retreated, the armored car went up, and launched an attack towards the most intensive fire of the opponent, and the surrounding devils also launched a counterattack with the cover of the armored vehicle, smoke bombs covered, grenadiers cleaned the fire points, especially the 37 guns on the combat vehicles, which were suddenly and suddenly, and the positions of the independent regiment were full of holes, and the machine gunners dodged one after another, and soon, the firepower fired at the devil plummeted.
This also made Oshima Suga breathe a sigh of relief.
"No wonder Li Yungeng dared to ambush."
Looking at the artillery squadron behind him that was deploying the gun emplacement, Oshima Suga suddenly realized.
The last bit of doubt in his mind about the matter finally disappeared.
This Li Yun gentian is indeed big enough.
The ambush position was actually set up just over 100 meters away from the road, and some salients were even more than 50 meters away from the road, which was simply right under the nose.
With a little more than a hundred combat distances and such powerful automatic firepower, if he was not prepared, if his brigade was in the usual marching formation, he was afraid that he would face one face, and the opponent would have suffered two squadrons of casualties in a round of firepower, then it would be really difficult to say how the situation of the subsequent battle would develop.
Maybe, he will really suffer a big loss.
But he had already learned the information in advance, he had already prepared, and there were armored vehicles, as long as he resisted the first wave, then the direction of the subsequent battle would be to fall on one side of the imperial army.
Things seemed to go his way.
Although the opponent continued to launch counterattacks, trying to control the battle situation, the four Type 95 chariots that were hit by dense bullets clanged and sparks splashed, but they had no effect, and the weak bullets did not even leave a trace, while the imperial army was centered on armored vehicles, constantly attacking, like a sharp knife, inserted into the opponent's position.
The opponent's formation has been completely disrupted.
Next, just let
·····
"The power of this chariot is really not small."
Looking at the 37 cannons on the non-stop devil 95-type chariot, Zhang Dabiao sighed and said with envy.
This thing is much more powerful than the M2 heavy machine gun, the power of a shell is comparable to that of an ordinary grenade, and the rate of fire is fast, the hit is also accurate, and it can also break the bunker, and the combat effectiveness is off the charts.
"Indeed..."
Li Yunlong was also a little drooling: "I don't know, Brother Chen will come to have this good thing in the future." ”
He felt in his heart that it was really possible, and it was very likely.
Before, once when he was drinking, Brother Chen drank too much, and once said that he would give him a few good Italian cannons in the future, which one is super powerful. He also said that there were a few tanks, the kind with super thick armor, so that the devils could also taste the taste of being attacked by tanks.
Although it's a drunken talk... But drunken words can also be believed.
"Commander."
Zhang Dabiao poured cold water on Li Yunlong:
"Even if Boss Chen gives us this thing, no one will use it, this is a tank armored car, our regiment, the political commissar has driven a car, do you want the political commissar to go to the front line?"
Grand Master Li's smile disappeared in an instant.
If you have a tank, you won't be able to use it, so it's too much...
"I'll talk about this later, let's destroy these four devil chariots for me first."
Seeing that the devil chariot had already broken through to the predetermined position and entered the ambush circle of the heavy machine gun, Li Yunlong, who was unhappy, gave the order to attack.
Zhang Dabiao raised the flare gun in his hand and groaned····· Three shiny firework flares flew up and exploded in the sky.
Suddenly, ten covered heavy machine guns appeared around the attacking devil tank squadron, and it was only more than two hundred meters away from the devil tank. A dense rain of bullets caged the devil chariot.
Although the little devil chariot has a thin skin and a big filling, and the output is extremely low, I have to say that some things are still good, such as this Type 95 chariot, although it only has a thin twelve-millimeter armor, it is a rare forged alloy steel armor, which is much stronger than the general carburized armor steel, however, this also brings a problem, alloy steel is not suitable for welding, so it is a riveted structure.
However, this time, he encountered the heavy machine gun provided by Boss Chen.
The system is produced and must be a high-quality product.
The hardened armor-piercing bullet produced by the system uses tungsten alloy material, plus a large charge, the muzzle velocity is fast, the armor-piercing performance is extremely strong, and the 12 mm alloy steel is like paper paste, and some places are pierced, and when the armor-piercing bullet of a bullet chain is finished, the four tanks have completely turned off, and even the tracks have been broken, and next to the tank, there is a pile of tattered devil corpses.
The terrifying armor-piercing bullet power directly shattered the limbs of the surrounding devils.
"How is that possible?"
"How is this possible?"
"What kind of weapon is this?"
Oshima Kan watched the armored squadron he regarded as a decisive force being beaten, and his eight-fold binoculars, although he could not see the holes made by the bullets, could also see the broken tracks that had been beaten, and he could also see that those chariots had been pierced.
He couldn't figure out where he got such a powerful heavy machine gun when he got such a powerful heavy machine gun from his own armor that even his own 13mm machine gun couldn't penetrate?
And the location of these machine guns, could it be that Li Yunlong did it on purpose? Just to ambush his squadron of chariots?
Bad things come in pairs.
Boom Boom...
Before Oshima Kan could accept the fact that the tank squadron had been wiped out, behind him, on the artillery position, there was a sudden burst of explosions, and the two 82 mortars from the artillery company were shot.
"Captain, the artillery position is under attack."
"And."
An artillery officer panicked and said in a panicked tone: "On the road behind, enemy cavalry appeared, and it was only a kilometer away from the artillery position. ”
"It's over, it's over, it's ·······"
Without finishing a word, Oshima Kan staggered and fell.
After Oshima Kan fainted, the battle continued for a long time.
After all, it was a brigade of devils, more than a thousand devils, and the independent regiment still had no ability to eat them, and in the end, half of the devils broke through and retreated, taking the fainting Oshima Kan, as for the heavy equipment, in order to avoid being captured by the Eighth Route Army, the devils could only be forced to blow up with tears.
