Li Yunlong issued the order, "Okay, all ministries start to move quickly. As long as the little Japanese military train stops at the site, the bombardment will start immediately!"
"Zhuzi, it's up to you!"
Wang Chengzhu was full of confidence, "Battalion Commander, just watch! I will make sure that the little devil's troops lie down!"
The order was issued, the team began to move, and each company rushed to their respective mission locations.
Near noon, Wang Chengzhu had already prepared the mortar position. Liu Bo left one squad as a guard post and led the rest of the soldiers to quietly approach the Yingdongji site from the outside.
On the other side, Li Yunlong led the Second Company and the Third Company to the ambush site and was already prepared. At the end of the valley, under the steep slope of an inverted triangle, simple hidden trenches were dug for the First Company and the Artillery Company.
In the woods, Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao inspected the disguises of the soldiers, "Hide them all for me, but don't let the little devil see them, otherwise we will be in vain this time!"
No omissions were found, so Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao also hid in a nest and stood guard in front of the radio station.
"Dabiao, listen carefully, I'll smoke a cigarette first!"
Li Yunlong is now rich in cigarettes. He no longer smokes pipes, but smokes cigarettes.
Zhang Dabiao watched Li Yunlong take out a whole pack of Wutaishan cigarettes from his jacket pocket, his expression couldn't help but lick his lips.
Li Yunlong said happily, "Hey, Brother Xu brought this specially, and I don't have many people. When this fight is over, I will give you a pack of cigarettes, and you guys can share a puff!"
Zhang Dabiao was very happy, "Batalion Commander, we have agreed, and we are not allowed to go back on it!"
While Li Yunlong was puffing away the smoke, the puppet army commander stood beside Lieutenant Little Jaap at the Yingdong Station, "Lieutenant Tanabe, lunch has been prepared for you. I will definitely guarantee your satisfaction, hehe!"
Lieutenant Tanabe smiled and patted the puppet army commander on the shoulder, "Wu Sang, you did a good job, I'll leave this to you!"
The puppet army commander surnamed Wu patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, Taijun. With me, Wu Ran, there will be no problem. I will ensure that the train is replenished with water and coal in time and leaves on time!"
Lieutenant Tanabe nodded happily, "Yo Xi!", then waved to his men, "Let's go eat!"
Soon, the little devils on duty at the platform went to enjoy lunch one after another, leaving the duties of the duty to the puppet soldiers.
"Why are you dawdling! Be careful, I'll slap you!" Wu Ran stretched his neck and shouted, but his eyes were not on the villagers of Yingdongji who were forced to work. Instead, he squinted at the little boy who was leaving. The back of the devil.
When the little devil's back disappeared into the waiting room, Wu Ran's expression immediately changed, "Bah! I'll eat you to death sooner or later!"
Wu Ran said a few words to his men, and then came to the villagers who were working.
"Third uncle, wipe it quickly and drink some water. We'll do it later!"
Among the villagers, a middle-aged and elderly man who was over fifty years old wiped his mouth and nose covered with black coal powder, took a sip from the kettle in Wu Ran's hand.
"You guys take this time to take a rest, the little devil will be back soon!"
The third uncle looked at Wu Ran with concern, "Wu Wazi, it's not good for you to follow the little devil after all, you'd better leave as soon as possible!"
Wu Ran smiled in an awkward manner, "Hey, it's okay, as long as I can help the people in the village, I don't care!"
The third uncle sighed deeply. Since the little devil came here, most of the men in the nearby villages of Shiliba were arrested and went to the mines to dig coal.
The men in their Yingdongji group, including himself, were originally going to be arrested for coal digging.
It just so happened that Wu Wazi, who was disliked by the villagers, went to Jiexiu County and came back as a leader of the puppet army.
Everyone originally thought that Wu Wazi would help the tiger, but they didn't expect that after Wu Ran's management, the men in their village were left to work at this Tongpu railway station, and they could return home after finishing their work.
Compared to those in neighboring villages who were arrested for coal mining and never heard from again, they were so lucky.
The third uncle patted Wu Ran's shoulder affectionately, "Wu Wazi, no matter what outsiders say, our whole village will remember your kindness!"
At this moment, on the Tongpu Railway in the distance, the little devil's military column was gradually approaching, honking its whistle.
Slowly stopping at the station, "Bah, bah, bah...", large waves of local white water vapor filled the air. The third uncle and the villagers in Yingdongji were about to wait for the water vapor to dissipate and start working.
On the hilltop far east of the site, Wang Chengzhu aimed at the locomotive and quickly slid the shell into the mortar barrel.
"call out!"
Wu Ran suddenly heard a sharp whistling sound coming from above his head. Having seen mortars before, he immediately realized what it was.
He hugged his third uncle and suddenly fell to the ground, "Everyone, get down quickly, it's a cannonball! It's going to explode!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a mortar shell accurately landed on the locomotive. "Boom!" The locomotive's boiler and pipes immediately cracked. A large amount of high-temperature and high-pressure steam spurted out from the cracks, and the entire train immediately burst into flames. Stay where you are.
Taking advantage of this chaos, Wu Ran quickly grabbed his third uncle and shouted to the villagers, "Get out of here quickly, someone must be here to hit the little devil's train!"
At this time, the little devils on the train were screaming and trying to repair the locomotive boiler, but the large amount of high-heat steam spurting out prevented them from getting close.
Hearing the explosion, Lieutenant Tanabe and his men ran back anxiously.
"Where is Wu Ran? Ask people to move everything down quickly! Ha Ya Ku!"
Obviously, he also knew that the enemy came for the supplies on the military column and would never be done with just one shell.
Unfortunately, Wu Ran had already run away with everyone. Lieutenant Tanabe pulled out his command sword and waved it around in annoyance.
Without waiting for the little devil to move the supplies, under the command of Wang Chengzhu, four 81mm mortars landed on the entire train one after another, in twos and threes.
Seeing that half of the carriages were hit by artillery shells and blown up, and the supplies were burning in the raging fire, Lieutenant Tanabe was furious and helpless. There was no way to save the things.
Then, Lieutenant Tanabe turned his attention to the mortar position on the hilltop to the east, pointed his command knife, "Take down the enemy artillery position, fool!"
With an order, more than a hundred little devils rushed out of the station and rushed to the east hill.
Yilian, who had been waiting outside for a long time, pointed the gun at the little Japanese who rushed out of the station at the sound of Liu Bo's gunshot, and quickly pulled the trigger.
Of course, only half of the soldiers in the company fired, and the interval between the two shots was not short. Only two machine guns fired. The machine gunner lightly pressed the trigger and released it immediately.
The charge was blocked. Under Lieutenant Tanabe's shout, the Japs immediately dispersed their formation, set up machine guns and grenade launchers and began to counterattack.
But before the Japs could fire a few shots, Wang Chengzhu, who had already blown up the train, personally operated a 60 mortar and aimed it at Lieutenant Tanabe's team.
The grenade that was the greatest threat to a company was accurately pulled out, and then as if the cannonballs were exhausted, another cannonball fell after a while.
In this way, the two sides were at a stalemate in the eyes of Lieutenant Tanabe.
Lieutenant Tanabe immediately chose to call for tactical guidance!
