... This train, named Empire No. 716 by the Japanese, has been in service for nearly three years since the Japanese invaded China.
In terms of the service life of a train, this train No. 716 is still a child at best.
Japanese Major Yamada Shinichi was holding his samurai command sword in one hand at the moment, looking through the window of the train at the great mountains and rivers of the Chinese that were moving rapidly backwards in his field of vision.
According to the original plan, this train was preparing to transport a large batch of military rations.
But just a few hours ago, several railway lines used by the empire to transport grain to Yangquan were ambushed by the Eighth Route Army.
After analysis, the command headquarters believed that the Eighth Route Army came for the empire's military rations. If they rashly transported food through the transportation line, they would be easily ambushed by the Eighth Route Army.
According to the order of the headquarters, this transportation was carried out according to the plan.
It is used to test whether the railway line to Ping'an County is safe.
If it is safe, food can continue to be transported through the railway line.
If you encounter an ambush on the way, you can use the trick to eliminate the sneak attack of the Eighth Route Army troops in one fell swoop.
For this plan, train No. 716 was delayed for a full four hours and did not leave until after dawn. The fear was that it would be ambushed by the Eighth Route Army at night and it would be difficult to eliminate the Eighth Route Army troops who could use the cover of night.
In addition, at this moment, train No. 716 did not transport any military rations, but it was fully loaded with two elite fully-equipped squadrons of the Japanese army.
The total strength is nearly 400 people, under the unified command of Japanese Major Yamada Shinichi.
According to the established plan of the Japanese military command:
If you are ambushed by the Eighth Route Army on the way, you will directly launch a counterattack until surrounding reinforcements arrive quickly, encircle you, and eliminate the ambushed Eighth Route Army troops in one fell swoop.
Therefore, this train did not transport the food that the Eighth Route Army wanted, but instead pulled an elite Japanese army that could kill the Eighth Route Army at any time.
In addition, in order to deal with the ambush of the Eighth Route Army, Major Yamada led two squadrons of elite Japanese troops and especially strengthened their firepower, especially the grenade launchers and light machine guns assigned to the squad.
According to the original firepower configuration of Yamada's troops, each Japanese team was equipped with a machine gun group and a grenade group, each equipped with three Taisho 11-type light machine guns and three Type 89 grenadiers.
After being strengthened this time.
An infantry squad of the Yamada unit had five light machine guns and five grenade launchers.
Such an infantry squad has even twice the firepower of an ordinary Japanese squad.
This is also the lesson learned by the Japanese army in the battles between the Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment, and the New Second Regiment.
The Sangun Tubalu, which they had looked down upon in the past with backward equipment and scarce ammunition, suddenly transformed and was even able to crush the Japanese army with firepower in local battles.
The Japanese were so frightened that they even had to strengthen the firepower configuration of the combat troops when dealing with the Northern Shanxi Iron Triangle.
Yamada Shinichi was therefore confident, believing that once he encountered an ambush from the Eighth Route Army, he could use the enhanced firepower in his hands to completely crush the Eighth Route Army troops.
"Perhaps we don't need to wait for reinforcements to encircle us. Our troops can easily eliminate the Eighth Route Army who dare to ambush!"
Boom——
The front of the speeding train encountered a sudden big explosion, and a huge roar came. Before Yamada Shinichi and other Japanese soldiers could recover, the huge shock that followed made the little Japanese soldiers stand unsteadily.
As train No. 716 sped along, the front of the train finally took the lead in detonating the rail bomb that the tank company soldiers had planted on the track in advance.
This type of rail bomb was developed and produced by the Independent Regiment Repair Institute.
The principle used is that when the wheels of the train run over the bomb, they connect the wires and close the circuit, thus triggering an explosion.
In addition, the railway bomb was buried under the lathes on both sides of the railway track. Only two thin wires were erected on the surface of the railway track. After being buried, the surface was naturally treated.
It was really difficult for the Japanese army to find these inconspicuous side bombs randomly planted by the Eighth Route Army on a certain section of the train that was several kilometers, dozens of kilometers or even hundreds of kilometers long.
The Japanese train is therefore impossible to guard against.
This rail bomb was even listed by the Japanese army as the number one hidden danger threatening the safety of the empire's railway transportation lines.
For this reason, the Japanese army on the one hand strengthened its vigilance on the railways along the way and wanted to build a gun tower every few hundred meters to guard the railway lines. In addition, from time to time, the Japanese army also asked engineers to use mine detectors to check the railway lines along the way.
It's just that with such a long railway line, railway bombs are planted at irregular times and at irregular points, so the Japanese are naturally unable to prevent them.
The railway bomb planted by the tank company soldiers was very heavy. In the big explosion, the front of the train was directly destroyed, and a section of the railway track was also blown open.
The Japanese train conductor who was among them was blown to pieces.
The remaining trains stumbled forward.
Before the little devils in the carriage, bumping around like sardine cans, could recover, He Dahai directly issued the order to attack.
"Haha, I've finally arrived. Zhao Erniu, drive in at full speed and go back to the front. I'm going to kill these little devils with my own hands!"
Li Yunlong, who was holding a heavy machine gun, shouted at the top of his lungs.
A row of behemoths roared down from the slope.
The four armored vehicles on the left and right wings were light in weight and faster. They took the lead in launching the offensive. They directly formed a triangular offensive formation with the three tanks rushing forward from the center line. The front part even used a pincer-like offensive to launch the first attack on the Japanese invaders who jumped out of the carriage. attack.
Shaken by the violent shaking, the little Japs No. 10 who had just jumped out of the stopped train looked up and saw three tanks and four armored vehicles coming down the slope on the left side of the railway line. It fell down like a tsunami.
The expressions on the faces of these little devils at this moment are wonderful.
Shock, fear, shock, panic, helplessness...
Face the fear of steel machinery with flesh and blood.
The Japanese finally felt this feeling.
The little devils who finally had some military qualities quickly recovered from their stunned expressions.
The next scene was shocking. The little devils who faced the impact of tanks and armored vehicles subconsciously did not launch a counterattack on the spot. In a panic, they actually wanted to burrow back into the car.
"Your Majesty Major, the situation is not good, it's a tank unit!"
A Japanese team leader hurriedly reported the situation.
In an unexpected scene, Yamada Shinichi never expected that it would be the enemy's tank troops that ambushed the transportation line.
This is definitely a major intelligence error.
How could the Eighth Route Army, which had always been a beggar army, have a tank unit?
Looking at the seven tanks and armored vehicles roaring towards him with the aura of death, Yamada Shinichi could not comfort himself, those were the tanks of the empire.
The opponent's tank guns were already roaring, and the shells hit the train and even tore the carriage apart.
Whether it's a tank or an armored vehicle, the attached heavy machine gun is roaring crazily.
Yamada Zhen glanced at him and was rushing back into the carriage in a panic. The Imperial warriors who had just arrived suddenly sprayed out clusters of blood mist under the heavy machine gun bullets that rained down on them.
Human life at this moment is as fragile as a rotten melon that can be smashed with one punch.
There were also some brave little devils who used bullets and grenade shells to fight back, but they seemed so powerless under the onslaught of the opponent's armored vehicles and tanks.
Under the impact of enemy tanks and armored vehicles.
The additional firepower configuration of Yamada's troops seems to have become a joke.
"Baga, don't retreat, start an attack!"
"Artillery, artillery! Fire immediately to block the enemy's tanks from advancing!"
"Signal Corps, call the headquarters immediately and request air reinforcements!"
Yamada Shinichi kept roaring orders. He knew very well that if he retreated now, he would only be ruthlessly slaughtered by the opponent's tanks. If he fought back desperately, he might still have a chance of winning.
Da da da--
Boom——
The two sides quickly entered a fierce confrontation. Yamada Shinichi discovered with his eyes wide open that these enemy tanks and armored vehicles were very strange. The number of machine guns and artillery equipped on the vehicle bodies exceeded his expectations of these originally imperial tanks. learn.
The firepower was unbelievably fierce.
The Japanese soldiers who fought back desperately, under the fire of machine guns and bombardment of artillery shells, were like nails nailed to the flesh and blood of the train board behind them, constantly spurting out clouds of blood.
The horror is unbearable to look at.
A thought suddenly appeared in Yamada Shinichi's heart: This is probably how things are in hell!
The angry, frightened, but helpless little devils now also tasted the despair and helplessness of the Eighth Route Army troops when facing tanks.
On the battlefield against China, the number of anti-tank weapons in the hands of the Japanese troops was originally small.
Not to mention when dealing with the Eighth Route Army troops in the occupied areas.
The Japanese troops almost never considered that anti-tank combat would occur when fighting the Eighth Route Army troops.
Now the little devils are reaping the consequences.
Although the Japanese troops in Yamada's unit had strengthened their firepower configuration, they did not have any anti-tank equipment at all.
The Japanese officers roared, and under the fire suppression of the tanks and armored vehicles of the tank company, they constantly organized death squads to use bundled grenades or some explosive packets in an attempt to get close to the tanks and armored vehicles for blasting.
This can be said to be a fairly primitive anti-tank method.
What needs to be paid is the price of life that is constantly being filled.
"Well done, I'm just worried that I haven't had enough killing yet!"
Looking at several teams of Japanese soldiers who were desperately rushing towards them, Li Yunlong turned the muzzle of his heavy machine gun and fired suddenly at the small Japanese soldiers who were rushing over.
In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, countless Eighth Route Army martyrs carried explosive packs and cluster grenades, and launched a deadly charge towards the Japanese tanks one after another, only to fall one after another. The tragedy and tragedy were repeated at this moment.
However, the roles of China and Japan have been completely reversed.
Miracles will not favor those brutal invaders.
The seven or eight Japanese death squads that rushed up, including the forty and fifty little Japs, were completely slaughtered by the soldiers in a matter of seconds...
