"Sir, this way, this way is the little devil's arsenal!"
While the battle in Dongcheng was still in full swing and a section of the Fourth Battalion had advanced to the central street of Pingyin, the guide of the underground party had already led a platoon of the Fourth Battalion outside the Japanese arsenal. (A platoon in the supervision team is equivalent to a company)
Although this Japanese arsenal is not as big as Feicheng, it doesn't look very small either.
The officers and soldiers of the fourth battalion all had evil smiles on their faces, because this time the supervisory corps had made a fortune again.
Platoon leader Zhao Tong gave the order and the entire platoon divided into two groups to directly attack the little Japanese's arsenal. They couldn't give the little devil time to reflect. Because when they were in Feicheng, the Japs almost blew up the arsenal.
At that time, the brothers in the cavalry battalion discovered it in time and stormed in directly, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
So at this time, Zhao Tong also directly attacked and attacked from both sides.
The Japanese at the entrance of the arsenal received the lunch boxes one after another without reacting at all.
The two large iron doors were locked from the inside. Zhao Tong directly hung grenades on them, then pulled off the safety ring and left quickly.
These were two German-style wooden handle grenades. The explosion was extremely powerful. After a violent explosion, the two large iron doors were blown away in an instant.
At this time, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the remnants of the explosion had not yet dissipated. The soldiers of the fourth battalion roared and followed Zhao Tong into the little devil's arsenal.
At this time, the Japanese in the arsenal had just gotten up from their sleep. They also heard the gunfire and were about to put on their clothes and take weapons to protect the arsenal.
But suddenly there was an explosion, and the few Japs running in front were directly thrown away by the impact of the explosion.
The Japs behind panicked and retreated to avoid the shrapnel splashed by the explosion. But at this moment, Zhao Tong rushed in with someone.
There is no nonsense, but when you see the Japanese in the arsenal, you will be fired with a submachine gun.
Most of the Japanese were beaten to death on the spot, and only five or six Japanese resisted stubbornly relying on a few wooden boxes.
When he arrived at the arsenal, Zhao Tong did not dare to use grenades, so several soldiers who rushed in front were shot, killing two and injuring one.
Zhao Tong hid behind an empty oil drum and fired at the Japanese. One of the Japanese was killed, but the other four were still shooting randomly at Zhao Tong and others at the gate.
The battle reached a brief stalemate, and one of the Japs officers loudly ordered the two Japs to blow up the arsenal.
After Feicheng's painful lessons, the little devil also became smarter. Moreover, the headquarters of the Fifth Division also issued a death order. Once they encounter an unfavorable battle situation, they will blow up the arsenal immediately. The arsenal must not be left to their enemies.
At this time, I am afraid there is no more disadvantageous situation than now. So the Japanese officer immediately ordered to blow up the arsenal.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, gunshots were heard from the backyard of the arsenal, and immediately afterwards, two Japanese soldiers who ran to the warehouse to blow up the arsenal were shot one after another and received their lunch boxes. It turned out that the soldiers who climbed into the arsenal from the back wall killed four Japanese guards guarding the warehouse, and then came to the front.
So the two teams attacked front and back, and all the remaining little Japanese were killed.
At this time, Zhao Tong gave a loud order: "Go and look around immediately to see if there are any living Japs. Remember, I don't want to see any alive. This is an arsenal. A grenade can destroy everything here." Okay, do you understand everything?"
"yes!"
The soldiers took the order and searched everywhere in the arsenal, while Zhao Tong dispatched more than thirty people to build defenses outside the arsenal. Their mission is to capture the arsenal and hold it.
But at this time, the little devils probably didn't have time to think about the arsenal. They were fighting fiercely with the fourth battalion on the streets in the center of the city.
The two sides fought fiercely, using machine guns, heavy machine guns, grenades, and mortars.
The resistance of the little Japanese was very tenacious, because they received a death order, and they had to withstand it until the commander of the regiment, Yasuo Kitamasa, contacted the headquarters of the Fifth Division.
It's just that it's early in the morning, and although Kitamasa Yasuo has already called the headquarters, Seishiro Itatasuru is sleeping. The communications officer called him for a long time before waking him up.
This old devil was really tired. He hadn't slept much since the Dragon Boat Festival attack in Dongping County, so he fell asleep this time. If he hadn't been snoring, the communications officer would have thought that Banheng Seishiro was there. Died in his sleep.
Itahashi Seishiro sat up and still didn't wake up from his nap, because he was so sleepy that he couldn't even hear what his subordinates were saying.
After a while, he finally came to his senses and asked his communications officer what happened.
The communications officer detailed the matter of Ping Yin's attack and emergency to Itahashi Seishiro.
Ban Heng Seishiro was shocked at first, and then said angrily: "Baga, damn Dragon Boat Festival, why did you go to Pingyin County again? Didn't this stupid pig Yasuo Beizheng hear my order? I asked them to Be on guard, be on guard, why didn't they take precautions and the enemy invaded the city so easily?"
The communications officer quickly replied: "Your Excellency, Kitamasa Yasuo said that he still doesn't know how the enemy entered the city. But the opponent's firepower was very fierce. He has never seen such a fierce force. His 21st Regiment We can no longer hold on, if we continue to fight with the opponent, the 21st Regiment will be completely wiped out."
Ban Hengzhengshiro frowned and said: "Baga, even so, we can't retreat anymore. Let the 21st Regiment hold back the Dragon Boat Festival Supervision Corps no matter what the cost. By the way, we can capture hostages. Let They should be smarter and catch some Chinese people to take bullets. If the Supervision Corps dares to shoot, then we will condemn them in public opinion. And you tell Yasuo Kitamasa that reinforcements will arrive soon, and I will send planes to support them , let them resist."
"Hi!"
The communications officer took the order and trotted back to Seishiro Itashiro's office to call Kitamasa Yasuo back.
Kitamasa Yasuo suddenly realized when he heard Seishiro Itada's order, and thought to himself: As expected of the division commander, you have come up with such a clever plan. As long as you capture a lot of Chinese people as hostages, you will not be afraid of supervising the corps and not using any deadly weapons.
So he immediately ordered to arrest Chinese people in Xicheng and escort them to the battlefield, forcing the Chinese army not to attack again.
In a short time, the little Japanese captured nearly a hundred people and came to the central street of the battle. The little Japanese lit a bonfire and asked the Chinese people to stand at the front of the position.
A Japanese officer shouted in non-standard Chinese: "Listen to the Chinese people on the other side, your actions have caused great harm to the civilians. We, the Imperial Japanese Army, cannot tolerate your army's disregard for the lives of civilians." behavior and hate it deeply.
Therefore, I am here to advise your army not to stubbornly oppose the Imperial Japanese Army. Otherwise, your army will be responsible for any civilian casualties! "
At this point, the Japanese officer waved his hand, and the dozen or so Japanese soldiers who came forward raised their guns and shot and killed the people in the front row.
Obviously, the little devil's ability to say one thing and do another has not changed at all. They say they are afraid of hurting Chinese civilians, but in fact, they are the ones who kill!
