After leaning for a while, Shen Quan stopped the three of them and said, "Stop arguing, none of you will be able to take time off by then.
I'll say it first. If anyone slips up on the mission I will arrange later, take off his military uniform and leave, don't hang out with my new group in the future. I can't afford to lose face. "
Shen Quan's words immediately turned the scene cold.
Then, Shen Quan took out the railway map, pointed to the train route on it and said: "I have studied it carefully for a long time. We don't have enough manpower and it is impossible to stop the train, so we can only plant explosives on the tracks and wait. The train detonates after entering our preset range, forcing the train to stop.
Then the soldiers quickly surrounded him from both sides. After dealing with the Japanese on the train, they immediately used military horses to carry the supplies away. "
The three of them listened carefully to Shen Quan's battle plan.
"In order to ensure that the train does not capsize, I plan to plant explosives here in Luojiayao."
Luojiapong is a bend in the railway track. It is relatively flat. Even if the front of the train is bombed, it can be ensured that the train body will stop quickly and will not roll over.
Chen Quan continued: "As soon as the explosives explode, our people must rush up as fast as possible. We take Wanjia Town and cut off the phone lines. Over time, the Japanese will definitely notice something abnormal.
There are many Japanese and puppet troops near the railway, so we are racing against time. Once we fall behind even half a step, the entire team will die in the Japanese encirclement. Do you understand what I mean? "
After saying that, Shen Quan stared at the three people.
The three people immediately stood up straight and said in unison: "Promise to complete the mission."
"Lao Qi, you are most familiar with the cavalry battalion. Choose a group of clever brothers to hold the horses. As soon as the gunfire stops, the horses will rush forward to transport supplies."
Qi Dongshui, who was assigned the task first, answered on his own: "Captain, don't worry. If you miss a piece of supplies, I, Qi Dongshui, will pay for it with my life."
"Deng Hu, Da Biao, I ask you to lead people to rush forward after the explosives explode to resolve the battle as quickly as possible. Don't delay, we can't afford to waste time."
The two nodded in response.
Leaning slightly, Shen Quan looked at the time and said: "There is still an hour before the train arrives. Let the brothers take a rest. We will set off on time in half an hour. Everyone is at your place."
"yes!"
The three of them responded and then went to complete their tasks.
It's already early one o'clock, and the train will arrive at Wanjia Town in more than an hour. Shen Quan silently prays in his heart for more than an hour, hoping that the Japanese will not find out that Wanjia Town has been captured, so that he can blow up the Japanese train with peace of mind. , seize the supplies.
Half an hour later, all 460 people of the new regiment were dispatched and took their positions according to the designated combat plan.
Under the railway slope, Shen Quan was looking anxiously at the end of the railway track with a telescope.
Zhang Dabiao came over: "Captain, according to your request, we buried two kilograms of explosives in Luojianao. There is no problem in blowing up a locomotive."
"Okay, take your seats!" Shen Quan looked at the time again, and there were still seven minutes until half past two.
Everyone is starting to count down, and the time is passing by minute by minute.
Leaning slightly, the seven minutes came quickly. Everyone was staring at the railway, waiting for the train to enter the station.
Five minutes later, the train had not arrived.
Another five minutes passed, but the train still did not enter the preset range.
Zhang Dabiao became impatient and shouted: "Commander, is the information wrong? Is the Japanese train not coming?"
Chen Quan rolled his eyes at Zhang Dabiao and said angrily: "Can you shut your crow's mouth and wait a few more minutes to see!"
"If we don't see the train in ten minutes, we will take the army horse and lead the team to leave Wanjia Town."
Not to mention during war times, even in modern times, it is normal for trains and planes to be delayed.
But the New Regiment cannot stay here forever.
ten minutes later!
Still no train appeared in sight.
Shen Quan was also a little impatient. Just as he was about to raise his hand to call for retreat, the sound of a rumbling train suddenly came to his ears...
coming!
Hearing the sound of the train, Shen Quan quickly waved to everyone to hide. He took out his binoculars and looked into the distance. He saw a dark train approaching slowly.
The train is very short, with only five carriages except for the front.
Because the car was covered with a thick layer of oilcloth, even with a telescope Shen Quan couldn't see what supplies were on it.
"Brothers, be prepared. Whether our new group can make a fortune depends on God's blessing today."
"The explosives team is ready, the train is about to arrive at Luojiapong!"
Zhang Dabiao, who was responsible for detonating the explosives, kept pulling on the fuse, and the sweat on his forehead flowed down unknowingly.
I'm coming!
The rumbling sound became louder and louder, and in a blink of an eye, they arrived at Luo Jiayang.
"Da Biao, blow it up for me!"
Seizing the precise timing, Shen Quan shouted loudly.
In an instant, Zhang Dabiao pulled out the explosive fuse.
boom!
With a loud bang, the locomotive was blown into two halves. The huge wave of explosives even blew up half of the second carriage. The following carriages were also shaken and almost derailed and overturned.
