Chapter 441 Unless He Is Out of His Mind
"Major! The entire special attack team was destroyed! But the enemy's armored forces were not damaged at all, and Lieutenant Kuno's plan completely failed!"
"Masaka!?"
The news of the failure of the secret weapon echoed in Nakamura Kenichi's mind like a death knell, shocking him to lose the last bit of reason and clarity on the spot.
The old Japanese took out the signal gun with red eyes, and summoned the 10th squadron as a reserve without saying a word, hoping to fight the Eighth Route Army in front of him with all his forces.
"Hey, everyone, see you at Kudanzaka!"
Facing the self-willed supreme commander, the Japanese squadron leaders were all full of sorrow, helpless and powerless.
However, none of the three people had the courage to speak up and dissuade them, and they could only silently prepare to go to the battlefield and die.
There was no way, the higher the rank, the more powerful they were.
What's more, the vanguard of the Eighth Route Army was already close at hand. Even if they completed the process of overthrowing the superior in the shortest time, they would not have enough time to lead the troops to break through and escape.
After making up their minds, the three Japanese squadron leaders began to tidy up their uniforms, and then raised their samurai swords and led the remnants to launch a classic long live charge.
"It's a black card! Load on board!"
······
"Brigade commander! The Japanese launched a new round of charge on the combat mobile company. Judging from the strength and specific scale, this should be the enemy's dying struggle."
"Ah!?"
"There is such a good thing, is the reconnaissance true?"
"The little Japanese only have one or two hundred people, and they don't even have a heavy artillery over 105 mm. With bayonets and rifles, they dare to attack the armored forces? Unless he is confused!"
With confusion in his heart, Li Yunlong trotted to the front observation post at the first time. He picked up the telescope and looked at the center of the battlefield with a confused face.
Just a glance, Lao Li showed a smile like Gerasimov in later generations.
The exaggerated arc of the corners of his mouth and the big white teeth that could not be covered showed his contempt and ridicule for the enemy.
"Haha, everything is going in our favor. It seems that the commander on the other side is really confused and made such a big mistake at the critical moment."
"If the devils use the artillery towers and bunkers to block the enemy in an orderly manner, and send some brainwashed soldiers to stage a few suicide attacks, then we will really waste a few more shells."
"Now, hum!"
Although Li Yunlong did not finish his words, the comrades around him understood the deep meaning of their commander.
It's 1942, and they are still using their bodies to charge tanks. What kind of primitive people are fighting against modern military industry? Do you really think you are a Polish winged cavalry loaded with force to resist explosion, or a South American superman with full buffs in the loyalty trial?
After observing the new situation on the battlefield, Lao Li immediately ordered:
"Pass my order, let the fighter company speed up the pace of advancement, and we must take advantage of the enemy's weakness to kill the enemy."
"Artillery support company, you don't have to worry about the front line for the time being, just aim at the direction of Xinxiang Airport. Once the enemy's reserve rushes out of the airport and attempts to join the main force, use artillery shells to block their reinforcement road."
"The rest of the people, be ready to attack the whole army at any time! After seeing the signal for the general attack, even self-propelled artillery must rush up with the infantry to annihilate the enemy!"
"Yes! Guarantee to complete the mission!"
As orders were issued to troops at all levels, the entire Marine Brigade 1 started to run at full speed like a machine with a full spring.
Under the multiple crushing of manpower, firepower, individual quality and equipment, the Japanese garrison brigade at Xinxiang Airport fought hard for forty minutes and completely lost its resistance.
The only troublesome thing was a Type 97 fighter that took off under the bombing, but it did not cause any casualties to the Marine Brigade 1.
Facing the Japanese pilot who was about to dive and lick the ground in an attempt to avenge his dead colleagues, a long-prepared medium-range air defense aircraft in the rear took decisive action and directly blew up the outdated little crispy aircraft in mid-air.
So far, the 1st Marine Brigade successfully completed the offensive mission.
······
After the battle, the soldiers of the paratrooper infantry battalion began to clean up the battlefield. Their main task was to deal with the corpses and collect the equipment left by the Japanese on the ground.
Everyone was not sure when the airdrop would be in place, so it was better to store some Japanese weapons.
As for Li Yunlong's movements?
After killing the last Japanese, he led the comrades of the fighter company to the mission target and entered the field first to set up the command center.
The moment he stepped into the gate, a runway full of craters came into view. The severely damaged buildings made everyone frown.
There was no way, because their own firepower was too strong.
This is the result of not using 107 fire, otherwise the situation on the scene will only get worse.
After looking around the field and making a plan in his mind, Li Yunlong said to the chief of staff who was on standby:
"Hey, it seems that the next project will be quite a lot."
"Zhang Dabiao, you should quickly organize the comrades of the maintenance company to repair the runway and fill the craters in key positions first. As for the construction, give priority to ensuring the normal operation of the command tower, and don't worry about other things for the time being."
"If there is not enough manpower, then try your luck in Baliying Village and Jinjiaying Village in the south. With the reputation of our Eighth Route Army, it should be possible temporarily."
Before he finished speaking, the company commander of the maintenance company brought two old men to Li Yunlong.
On the outskirts of the airport, hundreds of young and middle-aged men carrying homemade weapons and tools can be vaguely seen.
When the Japanese invaders expanded the Xinxiang Airport, they not only occupied the farmland of two local villages, but also forced the people to join their construction team for free.
Under such high pressure, nearly a hundred villagers were killed by the Japanese invaders in just three years.
Now the First Marine Brigade has eliminated the Japanese garrison stationed at the airport, and Wang's division has recovered the lost land. The village heads of Baliying Village and Jinjiaying Village naturally want to come to exchange ideas.
"Comrades of the Eighth Route Army, we are finally waiting for Wang's division!"
"I can't thank you for your kindness. As long as the organization has any needs, I, Lao Jin, will try my best to contribute even if I risk my life."
"Hot meals and hot dishes will be here soon. Recently, there is a famine in northern Henan. The village can only prepare simple meals. I hope the comrades will not despise it."
Obviously, the village head of Jinjiaying Village has a certain understanding of the Eighth Route Army.
But it makes sense. Xinxiang is not too far from Shanxi Province, so it is normal to receive some policies.
Facing two elderly people over 50 years old, Li Yunlong personally brought a few ammunition boxes and motioned them to sit down and chat.
"Village Chief Jin, we have rules in the Eighth Route Army and cannot take anything from the masses. Moreover, Henan Province is still suffering from famine, so you should ask the villagers to preserve the food."
"If possible, please select some young and strong people in the village to help us repair the airport. Of course, we will pay the wages and provide meals!" (End of this chapter)
