Chapter 339: The Japanese Troop Transport Train Was Blown Away
"Brigade Commander! The Japanese troops are coming soon!"
On the eastern front, the 386th Brigade marched quickly and finally arrived here before the Japanese army reached their destination.
And set an ambush.
"Order the 771st and 772nd Regiments to the flanks. The rest of the troops will split in two. One part will go and overthrow the Japanese armored forces! The rest will follow me and fight from the front!"
"Yes!"
After the old brigade commander gave the order, all units of the 386th Brigade immediately began to act, and the soldiers quickly deployed from the surrounding areas according to the predetermined plan.
"That's right! Deploy three explosives along the railway line, front and back! Then, directly paralyze the front, rear, and middle of the train!"
"Okay, Commander, I'll do it right away!"
All kinds of weapons and equipment, including cannons and machine guns, have been loaded, waiting for the Japanese to enter the ambush circle so that they can have a good taste of our power!
In the distance, the strong light from the front of the Japanese train was like a sharp sword, splitting the darkness straight through and illuminating the road ahead as bright as day.
The soldiers' sharp eyes quickly caught sight of the train approaching at lightning speed. The machine gun mounted high on the train was particularly clearly visible under the bright lights.
"Quick! Report the situation to the brigade commander! The Japanese train is coming soon!"
The scout at the front line was extremely anxious. He knew that the situation was urgent and there was no time to lose, so he did not hesitate to pass this important information to the old brigade commander in the rear through communication equipment.
After receiving the news, the old brigade commander looked solemn. He took a deep breath and gave orders calmly.
"Tell everyone to concentrate all their attention and make sure the Japanese train is completely inside our carefully arranged encirclement before detonating the explosives!"
"Understood!" the soldier who received the instructions responded loudly.
At this time, the old brigade commander was staring at the approaching Japanese train. Although he looked calm on the surface, he was actually in turmoil and extremely nervous inside.
You must know that the outcome of this battle depends on this one move. If there is any mistake, even a tiny mistake, it is very likely to cause irreparable serious impact on the entire battle situation.
As time passed, the atmosphere became increasingly tense and depressing, as if even the air had frozen.
Finally, accompanied by a deafening and shrill whistle that pierced the night sky, "Woo--" the train loaded with enemy troops slowly drove into the encirclement.
"Good opportunity, now is the time!" the old brigade commander gave the order decisively.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "boom" that shook the earth, like thousands of thunders roaring together, resounding through the sky.
It turned out that three powerful explosive packs that had been ambushed in advance were successfully detonated at the same time.
In an instant, raging flames shot up into the sky, and the entire sky was instantly lit up by the dazzling flames produced by the explosion, as if it were daytime.
At the same time, the ground beneath his feet began to tremble violently, as if a sleeping beast was suddenly awakened and roared angrily.
The huge mushroom cloud formed by the explosion rose into the sky at an astonishing speed. The scene was so spectacular that it was jaw-dropping.
Everyone was shocked by the scene before them.
I saw that many carriages of the train were blown directly into the air.
The Japanese soldiers in the carriage were even thrown out, spinning continuously in the air, and finally fell heavily to the ground.
"Fire at me!"
With an order, the artillery that had been prepared for a long time in the rear immediately opened fire at the stopped train.
The muzzle spewed out the anger that had been suppressed for a long time, and countless shells shot straight into the sky, then drew a graceful arc and smashed straight into the Japanese troops.
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
The successive explosions caught the Japanese army off guard, resulting in countless casualties in an instant, broken limbs everywhere, and rivers of blood.
"Quick! Take cover! Find cover!"
"It's the Eighth Route Army! Fight back! Everyone, get up and fight back!"
"Twelve o'clock! Shoot! Quick!"
……
The Japanese division commander immediately came to his senses and ordered the tank troops to attack the main position of the 386th Brigade.
"Tank troops, charge forward! Kill these Eighth Route Army soldiers!"
The Japanese division commander drew out the gleaming command knife with a ferocious look on his face, raised it high, and waved it wildly towards the Eighth Route Army position.
His murderous roar echoed across the battlefield, as if it was going to tear the entire sky apart.
The Japanese tank soldiers came to their senses as if awakened from a dream. They hurriedly got into the tanks and quickly started the engines.
As deafening roars rang out, one steel behemoth after another, tanks, like wild horses running free from their reins, rushed towards the front of the Eighth Route Army's position.
Wherever they passed, dust flew and the earth trembled.
"Oh no! The Japanese tanks are coming!" The commander of the 771st Regiment saw this scene, his heart tightened, and a layer of fine beads of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
But he remained calm in the face of danger and decisively issued an order: "Immediately send soldiers armed with bazookas to counterattack! We must not let the Japanese tanks get close to our defense line!"
"Second Battalion Commander! Take some soldiers and wield rocket launchers and go around to the flank! Give these little Japanese tanks a good beating!"
The regiment commander stared at the approaching Japanese tanks with sharp eyes and shouted loudly.
"Yes! We will ensure the completion of the mission!" The second battalion commander responded without hesitation.
After receiving the order, he immediately led a group of brave and fearless soldiers, carrying heavy rocket launchers and boxes of artillery shells, crouching and moving forward like agile cheetahs.
They carefully avoided the enemy's sight and kept their bodies low as much as possible to avoid being discovered.
After a difficult journey, the small team finally successfully reached the flank of the Japanese tank unit and quickly found a favorable terrain to ambush.
Everyone held their breath and stared nervously ahead, waiting for the perfect moment to strike a fatal blow to the enemy.
"Sergeant! Japanese tanks!" Suddenly, a sharp-eyed soldier shouted in a low voice.
Accompanied by a deafening engine hum, dozens of Japanese tanks appeared not far from the Red Arrow Squadron.
The tanks were lined up in neat rows and charged towards the front line at a rapid speed with great momentum.
As the enemy got closer, the soldiers' heartbeats became faster and faster, but they had no intention of retreating.
Everyone looked at each other in tacit understanding, then skillfully loaded the bazooka in their hands, with their fingers lightly resting on the trigger.
As long as he receives the order, he will pull the trigger without hesitation and shoot the flames of revenge at the enemy.
"Don't fight any longer! Destroy the few tanks leading the charge and quickly move to another position!"
After the squad leader finished giving these instructions, he immediately raised the bazooka in his hand and aimed it at the advancing Japanese tanks.
"Fire!"
With an order, rockets shot out from the barrel of the bazooka like a fire dragon and headed straight for the Japanese tanks.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Accompanied by huge explosions, the Japanese tanks were instantly hit by these bazooka rockets, and thick smoke rose.
Immediately afterwards, the ammunition depot in the tank was ignited, and even more violent explosions came from inside.
Many tanks were directly destroyed by these rockets and fell to the ground, unable to move.
"Quick! Move position!"
At that critical moment, the soldiers were like agile cheetahs. They seized the opportunity and instantly flew away from the place where the fierce firing had just begun.
"What on earth is happening!" a Japanese soldier shouted in panic.
"It's the Eighth Route Army! They are hiding in the woods over there!" Another sharp-eyed Japanese soldier discovered the clue and pointed in the direction of the dense forest not far away.
"Shoot quickly! Fire! We must not let these damned Eighth Route Army soldiers go!"
Following the commander's order, the Japanese tanks reacted quickly and adjusted their gun barrels, aiming at the position where the Eighth Route Army had just been, and dense artillery fire poured out like raindrops.
Fortunately, however, our soldiers acted quickly and moved in time, so they were not injured by this sudden attack.
......
At the same time, far away in the Japanese headquarters, an urgent war report was hurriedly delivered to the devil commander.
"Report to the commander, the troops on the eastern front encountered stubborn resistance from the Eighth Route Army and are currently suffering heavy losses!" the communications soldier reported nervously.
Upon hearing this news, the Japanese commander's face became extremely gloomy, his brows were furrowed, and veins bulged on his forehead.
"Oh..." He just sighed deeply, his heart filled with helplessness and anxiety.
At this moment, although the battle situation was extremely unfavorable to his side, he had no soldiers left and no good strategy to implement. He could only pray silently to God, hoping that a miracle would appear to help him win this difficult battle.
For a moment, the entire command room fell into deathly silence, and all the Japanese officers looked at each other in silence.
Faced with such a difficult situation, no one could come up with an effective solution.
"Let them hold on a little longer... Try your best."
After a long time, the Japanese commander slowly spoke, with a hint of despair in his tone.
On the other hand, the special operations brigade led by Wang Lin himself appeared and disappeared like a ghost, skillfully using terrain and tactics to successfully lead the large Japanese force step by step into a carefully arranged ambush circle.
"Hehehe! Division Commander! Look at these Eighth Route Army troops. They're not that hard to defeat! I really don't know how the North China Front Army fought!"
The subordinate said to the Japanese division commander beside him with a proud look on his face.
"Hmph, when it comes to fighting, we have to rely on the Kwantung Army! Those North China Front Army are a bunch of rubbish! Being chased and attacked by such a force is a disgrace to our Imperial Army!"
Looking at the troops marching rapidly at this time, the Japanese division commander couldn't help but smile.
But what they didn't know was that Wang Lin's drone in the sky was observing their every move.
He was about to fall into Wang Linbu's ambush.
"Order Li Yunlong and the others to get ready, the Japanese troops are coming soon!"
Wang Lin immediately gave the order and everyone was on high alert.
"It's now!"
With an order, the ambushing Eighth Route Army troops immediately engaged in fierce firefight with the Japanese troops.
In just a moment, a large number of Japanese soldiers were wiped out.
"Division Commander, be careful!"
The fierce artillery fire and continuous gunfire suppressed the Japanese soldiers so much that they couldn't even raise their heads.
Especially Li Yunlong was addicted to fighting at this time.
I was fighting well just now, but was suddenly told to retreat. Now I finally have the chance, I have to vent my anger.
"Brothers! Beat them up! Beat these bastards to death!"
