Beichen Shishiro squatted at the entrance of the tunnel with great interest to observe the horizontal tunnel, and shouted in broken Chinese: "Hey, the people inside will come out, and those who come out will not die."
As a result, a response actually came from the tunnel: "If you don't believe me, come in and talk to me."
Beichen Shishiro laughed loudly: "If you don't come out, you will definitely die. If you come out, you may live. Don't you want to take a gamble?"
"If you don't bet, you will definitely die whether you come in or not. I have no interest in betting with the dead."
Beichen Shiichiro stood up with a smile, looked at the corps commander beside him and said: "He thinks that the tunnel entrance is narrow and he can guard the tunnel entrance as long as he has a rifle. He is too naive."
The team leader nodded: "But it's really difficult to enter this tunnel entrance. It's too narrow. Our people can't escape even if they get in."
Beichen Shishiro reached out and knocked on the head of the corps commander: "That's because you are too stupid. Just let a person go down like you did before. Don't show your head. As long as you reach the horizontal tunnel, throw a grenade into it and kill him." The people who were ambushing inside rushed in and drove out all the Chinese hiding inside."
The co-captain is still brilliant, why didn’t I think of that?
The Japanese corps commander said hello to Beichen Shiichiro with sincere admiration. This time he personally took out a wooden handle grenade and unscrewed the safety cover. He lay down at the entrance of the tunnel and ordered his men: "Send me down." ,slower."
Several Japanese soldiers pulled the captain's legs and slowly sent him down, stopping at a distance where his arms could reach the horizontal tunnel.
The corporal commander lit the fuse, counted silently for a few seconds, and then threw the grenade in with a whoosh.
Several Japs outside the tunnel entrance hurriedly pulled him back. After being pulled out, several Japs gathered curiously at the tunnel entrance and waited to see the grenade explode. As a result, as soon as they poked their heads out, they watched helplessly as the grenade was thrown into the horizontal tunnel. The grenade was smoking and pushed out with a shovel.
Beichen Shishiro was also looking around. He was shocked when he saw the grenade being pushed out. He shouted that he was sorry and hurriedly turned around to avoid it.
There was a loud explosion, and the Japs at the tunnel entrance managed to escape in time, but one Japs was also hit, with a piece of shrapnel inserted into his butt, and he screamed.
Beichen Shishiro was depressed, how could his good tactics be crippled? He got angry and slapped the corps commander twice in the face, stared at him and cursed: "Go down again, use grenades, count the time and then go back." Take action.”
The team leader lay down at the entrance of the tunnel depressedly and took out a Type 97 grenade and held it in his hand. The fuse of the Type 97 grenade only lasted 4 to 5 seconds. If it was delayed for three seconds, he would definitely not be able to withdraw from the tunnel in time, even though it was a handle. He didn't have to worry about being injured when Lei was thrown into the horizontal tunnel, but he would inevitably be hit by the explosion wave. It was certain that he would be blown to pieces.
Several Japanese soldiers dragged the corps commander's legs and sent him in through the tunnel. As soon as he sent him in, the corps commander watched helplessly as a smoking Type 91 grenade was thrown out of the horizontal tunnel. The captain was so frightened that he shouted: "Pull me up quickly, pull me up quickly..."
"Boom~"
Before the Japs above could react, the grenade they threw had already exploded.
Delay, who can't do it?
Squad leader Wang, who was responsible for guarding the entrance of the tunnel, took a pleased look, lit a cigarette for himself and said to the two soldiers beside him: "If you see it, just fight like this. Once the entrance of the tunnel goes dark, it means the Japanese are coming down. Take that." The lid is on the pot, don't let him throw the grenade in, remember that."
"Remember, remember, squad leader, give in. You've already hit two, let me try my hand at the next one."
Squad leader Wang chuckled and gave up his position to replace the soldier, and warned: "Be careful, the little Japs have many crooked ideas. If it doesn't work, just give up this opening and guard the shooting point. Don't be afraid of the Japs coming in. The Japs will die as many as they come in." You two keep this entrance while I go to the next entrance to have a look."
The Japanese were demolishing and burning the tunnels above. A lot of the tunnel entrances were exposed, and even more were blocked. It was easier to worry about the blocked tunnels. They arranged a soldier to patrol back and forth to keep an eye on them. The main ones were those exposed at critical moments. Someone is watching.
The Japs on the ground dragged the Japs Captain up by his legs. A grenade exploded at close range and his head was blown to bits. He was definitely not alive, but his body had not lost consciousness and was still shaking. He was shaking and twitching, looking quite scary.
Looking at the body of the corps commander who was still in convulsions, Beichen Shishiro became angry with shame.
The corporal's death was his fault. He was only thinking about how to use grenades to blow up the people hiding in the tunnel, but he ignored that the people in the tunnel would also use grenades to attack those who wanted to enter the tunnel.
"Burn them to death with fire." Beichen Shishiro gave the next order, feeling embarrassed to stay here any longer.
He had already lost a corps commander because of his command error. If he had known this, it would be better to order the people in the tunnel to be set on fire from the beginning.
Suddenly, Beichen Shiichiro felt that catching these Chinese hiding in the tunnels was not so fun.
The barbaric demolition of Zhangzhuang Town was still going on. The tanks showed their power at this time and ran rampant among the houses in the town. Houses were knocked down and turned into ruins. The Japanese following the tanks held torches and set fire everywhere, igniting everything that could be seen. Something to light.
It can only be caused by destruction. Xie Tian's efforts to strengthen the walls and clear the country were so thorough that he did not leave even a needle for the Japanese. What was left on the ground could not arouse the Japanese's desire to plunder.
Wu Wenhua ran back to the underground headquarters from an observation post and watched Xie Tianhui report: "Commander, two Japanese infantry and tank squadrons have camped at Songbaipo, and some Japanese are camped near our runway, and most of the other Japanese are camped at Zhangzhuang. The perimeter is blocked, I think the Japs in the two tank squadrons are relatively lax in their defense, how about we hit them?"
Xie Tian shook his head without hesitation: "The time is not yet ripe. Even if we can defeat the two Japanese infantry tank squadrons now, it will be difficult to completely annihilate this group of Japanese soldiers, and it will also be difficult to annihilate the captured Japanese tanks and bean tanks." Keep it. Wait a moment and let the little devils toss around for a while."
Wu Wenhua nodded: "A dozen tunnel entrances were exposed and more than thirty were destroyed."
Xie Tian hummed and asked, "Is anyone injured?"
"More than a dozen soldiers were injured, mainly because several tunnels were collapsed during the three rounds of Japanese shelling. One soldier at the observation post did not have time to retreat to the tunnel and was seriously injured."
Xie Tian nodded: "Since Okamura Neiji has judged that we are fighting in tunnels, some of our observation points on the surface will be discovered by the Japanese sooner or later. We might as well not use them. You can arrange some good marksmanship." Soldiers go up to the observation posts, and I aim at the Japanese high-ranking officials and shoot at most. One observation post can be shot up to three times, and then abandon that observation post after the attack."
Wu Wenhua nodded excitedly: "Okay, I'll make arrangements right now. These guys have been holding it in for a long time."
Xie Tian hurriedly stopped Wu Wenhua, who was about to run away: "Don't expose the observation post to me."
Wu Wenhua laughed and said: "I know it well, regiment commander, er, division commander, don't worry."
