After the Hengshan detachment left a large group behind, the main force of more than 6,000 people began to retreat towards Anping City;
It should be said that they are moving towards Anping City. The goal is to regain Anping City. They say that retreating would be too embarrassing for the imperial army!
"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"
Lin Quan, captain of the tank squadron, commanded the remaining five Type 95 light tanks to clear the way in front. He stopped from time to time and fired a few rounds with tank artillery. The wall collapsed but the frame did not fall!
Behind the tank followed a squadron of infantry. Their task was to accompany the tank to clear the way. On both sides of them were the remaining 700 cavalry units of the cavalry regiment, commanded by Osaka Sato. This was the last mobile force of the Japanese. Unfortunately, there was nothing. Useful place.
"Boom boom boom!"
A series of explosions engulfed a dozen cavalrymen, and while they were searching, they detonated trip mines buried on both sides of the road.
The large army was forced to stop, and Major General Hengshan yelled angrily:
"Bagayalu, what kind of work?"
"Bagaya Road?"
He suddenly remembered that Suzuki Colonel, who was usually the most discerning and cooperative with him, was left behind in Liuzhen. He was probably surrounded by the Eighth Route Army at this time, and it was only a matter of time before he was destroyed.
Fortunately, there were still communications officers coming to cooperate. How could there be no one to ask questions from the general?
"Your Excellency General, a large number of mines have been found ahead. The cavalry regiment that opened the way suffered heavy losses. The engineer squadron is clearing mines. Please wait a moment!"
The old devil Hengshan nodded and said:
"Yo Xi, order the troops to camp on the spot, and the cavalry regiments and tanks will be on guard to prevent sneak attacks by the Eighth Route Army!"
"Hey!"
The communications officer turned and left.
Although Hengshan's face is calm, he is very anxious in his heart. At this speed, can he reach Anping in the Year of the Ox and the Moon of the Horse?
In the minefield laid by the Eighth Route Army, dozens of engineers were clearing mines with simple mine detectors. Suddenly one of the Japanese soldiers detected a mine, and he carefully placed a small red flag on it.
At this time, two deminers climbed over carefully and began to dig mines with engineering shovels. They were very professional and soon dug out an iron can mine.
"Yo Xi, you are cunning and cunning!"
The deminer specifically looked at the back of the mine to see if there were any mother-to-child mines connected to it. He found no wires connecting the mother-to-child mines, so he opened it with confidence...
"boom!"
There was still an explosion below, and the demining soldiers never figured out how the mines were detonated until they died.
What he didn't notice was that Zimu Lei's hair tie was connected by a very thin hair. How could the Japanese find it with such rough hands and feet?
"Boom! Boom!"
The deminers kept stepping on landmines because fellow villagers found that iron can mines were highly lethal but easily detected by magnetic fields. Later, they changed the material to wooden shell mines, which could still kill people if they contained more gunpowder. It is also very hidden and cannot be detected with a mine detector.
There are also ceramic mines that have no magnetic field. They are combined with iron can mines to form a composite mine. They are real and fake, making it difficult for the Japanese to guard against them.
Landmines are the weapons of the poor. They are easy to bury but very difficult to clear. Think about the landmines in the Lingnan border area in later generations. They were collected all over the country and have not been cleared for half a century. How many demining heroes have been sacrificed?
The Japanese waited for a long time and were able to clear out more than a dozen mines. They had lost their patience and had no time to waste time with the mines!
The Japanese began to go crazy. Many of their wounded soldiers asked to go to the mines. This cruel method was actually encouraged by junior officers!
In front of the minefield, a dozen wounded Japanese soldiers lined up. A Japanese second lieutenant took off his military uniform, tied a menstrual towel on his head, and shouted wildly:
"Gentlemen, see you in front of the Jingguo Ghost Club!"
"Onboard, long live His Majesty the Emperor!"
…
A group of wounded soldiers, led by the Japanese second lieutenant, frantically rushed towards the minefield
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!!"
The Japanese second lieutenant was eventually blown to pieces...
"Bagayalu! Kill the chicken and give it to me!"
A cavalryman was infected by the second lieutenant's feat. He whipped the Japanese horse under him with his riding whip, and rode forward one by one, detonating a series of landmines...
"Yo Xi, Sakai-kun is really a warrior of the empire, so strong!"
Osaka Sato couldn't help but praise that Sakai was still his brother-in-law.
"boom!"
After rushing out a few hundred meters, Sakai's good luck came to an end when he was blown to pieces by a thunderbolt!
"Damn, what a bunch of lunatics!"
"Let the devils have fun here! Let's go!"
Xu Daqiang, commander of the Third Company of the Fourth Battalion, spat thick phlegm into the enemy's face and quietly left with the Third Company;
There were still a lot of minefields behind, and he had to rely on people to arrange them. He wanted to see how many people the Japanese had enough to consume.
Under the Japanese mines regardless of casualties, they finally broke out of a bloody path, and the large troops of the Hengshan detachment continued to turn towards Anping.
Several Japanese tanks staggered into the ambush position of the Third Company. Xu Daqiang's goal this time was to kill these Japanese tanks.
The method he planned to use was roadside bombs and "Mulan" rocket launchers. The third company had three rocket launchers and 15 rockets. He had been reluctant to use them, but this time they finally came in handy.
As the commander, Lieutenant Colonel Lin Quan personally directed a Type 95 tank at the front. Whenever he noticed anything unusual along the way, he would stop immediately and fire two shots, very arrogantly.
"Bagaya Road, nine o'clock direction, 500 meters away!"
Lin Quan's dog eyes were quite sharp. He spotted a soldier from the Third Company. He was not sure whether it was an ambush, so he stopped the tank first.
In less than a minute, a shell flew towards the place where the main force of the Third Company was hiding, blowing up a stone. Two soldiers were injured, but they stayed there without moving!
Lieutenant Colonel Lin Quan looked through the binoculars and found nothing unusual, and shouted:
"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"
Xu Daqiang breathed a sigh of relief, then stared at the Iron Bastard, watching it approach the "Big Firecracker" step by step...
"boom!"
A soldier who was lying in ambush on the roadside responsible for detonating the explosion decisively pulled the fuse. A loud noise was heard. The Japanese tank lay down, and several tanks behind it also stopped.
"Choo Choo Choo!"
More than 100 meters away, three rockets shot out of the rocket launcher, dragging long tail flames straight towards the Iron Bastard...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Three rockets hit the first and last tanks one after another. Especially the first tank in which Lieutenant Colonel Lin Quan was riding was directly hit by two rockets and was blown into a pile of scrap metal.
He, the chariot captain, also met Amaterasu with the Iron Bastard!
"Enemy attack!"
"Ta-ta-ta!"
"Boom boom boom!"
In order to cover the rocket launcher group, the main force of the Third Company, which was ambushing a few hundred meters away, fired wildly at the Japs with mortars and two machine guns. The bullets hit the Japs' Iron Bastards, causing sparks to appear.
"Boom! Boom!"
The remaining three tanks of the Japanese opened fire on the exposed fire points of the third company. A machine gun that was firing at the Japanese was hit by the Japanese tank cannon. Two members of the machine gun crew fell in a pool of blood.
Their sacrifices bought time for the rocket launcher team, and three rockets once again flew towards the three remaining tanks...
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Three tanks were destroyed one after another. Within a distance of more than 100 meters, the "Mulan" hit the Type 95 tanks with almost perfect accuracy.
The Japanese were completely stunned...
"Bagaya Road, fight the anti-cannon!"
The Japs finally discovered the rocket launcher group, but unfortunately it was about 150 meters away. As soon as they rushed off the road, they stepped on the mines, and a series of explosions completely woke the Japs.
——
This is a minefield!
The Third Company used mortars to suppress the Japs with firepower. After covering the evacuation of the rocket launcher group, the Third Company also quickly withdrew deep into the mountains.
Since there were landmines everywhere, the Japanese did not dare to pursue them.
"Your Excellency General, the Eighth Route Army has a new weapon that can easily destroy tanks. It can be operated by two to three people. It is very light. The last five tanks of the tank group were destroyed!"
"Bagaya road!"
Major General Hengshan cursed angrily, but there was no good solution. He had always thought that the Eighth Route Army used combat anti-tank artillery, but now it was confirmed that it was a new anti-tank weapon.
"Ito-kun, your team must find a way to capture one. With the industrial strength of the imperial army and a large number of imitations, we will have a way to deal with the Black Bear Kingdom's tank cluster!"
After hearing this, Captain Ito nodded in agreement. The two old devils were still not sure whether they could escape Liu Town, so they thought of using new anti-tank weapons to deal with the armored clusters of the Black Bear Kingdom...
