Chapter 902 Going to Pujiang?
"These matters are confidential, so don't ask too much. Whether we go to Pujiang to fight or not is our commander-in-chief's business. If there is an order, I will take you there first. We will also go to Dapujiang to take a look."
After hearing the words of the regiment commander, many people showed hope in their eyes. To be honest, everyone was from the north and had only heard of Pujiang from other people's conversations. They knew that it was much more prosperous than Beijing, but unfortunately no one had been there. If the Japanese really fought there, we could just go to another place and beat them.
"Captain, the Japs are coming!"
Before they had even finished smoking a cigarette, the Japs in front were already charging towards them. Captain Cui quickly picked up his binoculars. Oh my god, the Japs were now putting all their forces forward. Nearly three thousand people, led by more than twenty small tanks, were charging towards the train station with great momentum.
"Send the engineers to plant the explosives?"
Hearing his men's words, Captain Cui looked at his watch. We still have to hold on here for five hours. The engineers' explosives cannot be placed yet. If they are detonated by artillery or other things, we will be the ones who suffer. It's better to place the explosives in the last hour. Anyway, the engineers have already seen all the points clearly. We can just allocate one hundred soldiers to them for transportation.
"Let's defeat this wave first. Concentrate our 12.7mm machine guns and directly fire at their little tanks. They can't withstand our large-caliber machine guns. They're more effective than iron fists."
Captain Cui can be said to be very experienced in fighting this kind of war. The Japanese are now so aggressive because there are a bunch of tanks lined up in front of them. Destroying their tanks first can be regarded as a blow to their confidence.
When the war just started, the 12.7mm machine guns were all on jeeps and armored vehicles, but after fighting for a while, there was so much construction waste that these vehicles could not drive through, so they had to dismantle the machine guns and place them on the positions, forming one firing point after another. The 12.7mm heavy machine gun can be said to have played a vital role in the railway station being able to hold out for so long.
The Japanese artillery also opened fire at this time. Unlike the early stages of the war, the Japanese transported almost all the artillery they could. The position was hit by a round of artillery fire, but our artillery observers were not idle either. They quickly deduced the location of their artillery positions and either contacted the planes in the air or asked the artillery around us to fight back.
Hearing the sound of artillery on the left, Captain Cui breathed a sigh of relief. The shells were dropped on the position. Our soldiers are also made of flesh and blood. If we don't counterattack, the number of losses will soon rise sharply.
"Call me."
When the thick smoke on the position dissipated a little, the enemy tanks were already within the range. At a command from Captain Cui, more than a dozen heavy machine guns opened fire. The Japanese tanks in the distance were still firing fiercely, but the next second, more than a dozen small holes appeared in front of the tanks, and the Japanese inside were directly penetrated.
Some tanks were moving at high speed, but they tilted a little to the side and suddenly flipped over. Several Japanese soldiers nearby were crushed underneath. Although the small tanks were not as heavy as Western tanks, these people were still crushed into meat paste.
Some of the bullets exploded the shells or something inside, and they exploded directly in the crowd of Japanese soldiers, and dozens of people around them had their faces covered with blood.
The little tanks could not gain any advantage against the 72nd Army, and many Japanese generals understood this, so even if these tanks were on the battlefield, they would not use them easily. But now that they realized that the 72nd Army was going to retreat, they were preparing to take over the railway station, so they sent these more than 20 tanks up, which also increased the confidence of the soldiers.
Now, their confidence has not increased at all. Instead, the addition of tanks has caused greater damage to the surrounding soldiers. Moreover, with the tanks, the targets of the machine gunners of the 72nd Army have become clearer. They operate the 12.7mm large-caliber heavy machine guns and just fire at the surroundings of the tanks. There must be dozens or hundreds of Japanese soldiers around a tank.
For them, firing a belt of 250 bullets would only take a few breaths. The assistant gunner next to them had already pulled the bullets and was waiting. If the Japanese wanted to find a gap to shoot, it would be very difficult.
The battlefield was littered with dust from bullets, and Japanese soldiers fell one after another. They had received an order in the morning that the 72nd Army might withdraw from Tianjin, so some important firepower points were lost at this time. If we acted quickly enough, we could bite off a piece of meat from them.
But now, having just arrived on the battlefield, many Japanese soldiers are starting to think this is nonsense. Is this a retreat? Compared to the previous few days, there hasn't been a single reduction in firepower points; there's even been a significant increase. Where did you get this information? They say the 72nd Army is retreating. There's not a single plane missing in the sky, and there are even more machine guns on the ground. They're treating over twenty tanks like precious treasures, finally pulling them out for a bit of fun, but they couldn't even hold out for half an hour, taking over 800 soldiers with them.
Captain Cui spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with some sand.
When the Japanese soldiers were bombarding just now, there was a lot of sand in the dust. If you took a deep breath, it would definitely get into your mouth.
"Everyone stop shooting."
Although the surrounding machine gunners didn't understand what was going on, since the regimental commander had given the order, they listened obediently. At this moment, the Japanese soldiers were ready to retreat, but after hearing the gunfire stop, several captains immediately stood up, waving their sabers, and led their men to charge forward. In their opinion, the 72nd Army must have encountered some trouble, or because of the retreat, they ran out of bullets, and we had to seize this opportunity.
Seeing more than a thousand Japanese soldiers rushing up, Captain Cui's eyes showed a cruel look...
"Iron Fist."
Captain Cui uttered two words lightly, and instantly more than fifty iron fists were fired from the position, rushing towards the Japanese position with white smoke. When the Japanese saw this scene, they immediately regretted it.
There's nothing wrong over there. The temporary ceasefire is just to attract you to rush up. Now look what's wrong. You're rushing up stupidly and now you've run into their guns. Just wait to die!
