Chapter 34 Calm down
"Bastard, steel ball thunder!"
Yamamoto Ichiki's reaction was the same as that of Koike Ichiro. Of course, the one who could shoot so many steel balls was the steel ball thunder.
But he quickly denied the idea.
Because the steel ball thunder is single-sided and not light... a steel ball thunder weighs more than three kilograms, and half of it weighs gunpowder.
This weight and charge are not suitable for throwing, because the throwing distance is too short to ensure your own safety. If the throwing direction is incorrect, the steel ball may be hit to yourself.
So, what is the enemy who casts it?
Yamamoto Ichigi poked his head out in confusion and found that several enemies quickly came out of the cave and threw things into both sides and hid back.
This time, Yamamoto Ichiki saw it clearly. It was a column. After landing, it would bounce up with a "flash", and then it exploded with a "boom" and exploded countless steel balls in all directions. A few of them flew over Yamamoto Ichiki's scalp.
Yamamoto Ichiki hurriedly shrank his head and hid back, but the agents above couldn't dodge and fell down screaming.
Then Yamamoto Ichiki realized the seriousness of the problem:
If the enemy can come out, it means that all the agents who rushed into the cave have died!
At this time, almost all of Yamamoto Ichiki's subordinates attacked in the cave, and there were only seven people outside, including Yamamoto Ichiki.
If all the enemies rushed out and counterattacked into other caves, then all the agents would be sealed in the cave without any retreat.
"Stop them!" Yamamoto Ichiki shouted: "Don't let them come out!"
But it was too late. The seven people outside the cave had been blown by the enemy's several waves of steel balls, so that only three of them had the combat power.
If these three people are close to the cave, they may also use submachine guns to seal the entrance, but two of them are a hundred meters away.
The mp38 submachine gun uses pistol bullets. Although it has the advantage of sufficient firepower, its disadvantage of insufficient range is also obvious... Its scale is 200 meters, and it is difficult to hit a target a hundred meters away in actual combat, so of course it is impossible to effectively implement the blockade.
Yamamoto Ichiki, the only one within range, was in an unfavorable position because he rolled to the bottom of the incline, and was suppressed by the firepower of the Eighth Route Army and could not move.
In fact, Yamamoto Ichiki was not just suppressed, but Wang Xuexin noticed this devil at the first time... Wang Xuexin did not see his military rank clearly, but the devil who could shout out the order to block the hole was undoubtedly the commander.
So Wang Xuexin didn't think much about it and threw two thunders into the place where the shouting came.
Yamamoto Ichiki could only continue to flip down, and even so, he was still hit by a few steel balls in his arm.
At that moment, Yamamoto Ichiki knew that the mission was going to fail, so he shouted: "Retreat!"
As he said that, he ignored his subordinates who were still attacking in the cave, he covered his wound and turned around and fled.
Yamamoto Kazuki is also somewhat different from the Imperial officer in this regard. He was educated in the West and would not sacrifice himself for some honor and spirit when he was not necessary.
So at this time, he made a quick decision to escape.
Wang Xuexin really wanted to pursue the Japanese commander, and he felt that the Japanese might be a key figure in the special agent team.
But Wang Xuexin couldn't chase after him because there were still many remaining enemies in the cave that had not been cleared, and the arsenal could not afford to lose.
So, Wang Xuexin could only wave his hand to order a few people to be alert outside the cave, while others took lightning to counterattack into the cave.
When the battle started, Zhang Wanhe was discussing with hardware in a cave in a branch factory to get a few more engine modification turning machines.
"Let's not be dazzled by the ideas of the little Northeast!" Zhang Wanhe said happily: "What our troops lack the most now is grenades. What 50 small cannons, ghost cannons, or landmines, you can't bring ordinary soldiers to the battlefield, right? But grenades can!"
Zhang Wanhe is right.
The Eighth Route Army had only about ten bullets per person, and sometimes even only three bullets.
This is also the reason why the Eighth Route Army is called the "Three-Ball Eighth Route Army"... After firing three shots, there were no bullets and they had to go forward to fight for bayonets.
But it is impossible to divide bullets into everyone's hands evenly in actual combat.
Because of insufficient ammunition, some people simply do not equip rifles... A rifle without bullets is similar to a fire stick, and it is better to have a machete to concentrate the bullets saved for soldiers with good marksmanship.
But soldiers who are not equipped with rifles cannot charge towards the enemy with big swords. They will bring a few more grenades and fight against the enemy in the form of grenades and big swords.
This pattern is especially common in guerrillas. Many guerrillas do not have guns and dodge in the corners of the walls when fighting guerrillas in the village. The Japanese or puppet troops came up and swung their grenades, and after the explosion, they rushed forward with a big knife to kill the enemy and seize equipment.
Therefore, the Eighth Route Army has the largest amount of equipment and the one that is most lacking is grenades.
In fact, what I lack most is bullets.
However, the Eighth Route Army was unable to produce shells, so the bullet production was in a bottleneck for a long time and could only be compensated with grenades.
Zhang Wanhe said while drawing the drawings: "If we can use the wooden handle of the machine driver's grenade and then transfer the man who produces the wooden handle to produce the bullet body, wouldn't it increase the output?"
"Yes!" Hardware nodded repeatedly: "And it is not difficult to modify this kind of turning machine, and our factory is safe again..."
At this time, the gunshots rang out, just like a hardware-striking face.
Zhang Wanhe was shocked and ran out of the cave immediately. He happened to run into Gaodeshan, who was running down the mountain with his soldiers and asked, "Platform Commander Gao, what's going on?"
"I don't know yet!" Gao Deshan replied: "Xiaodongbei was caught in the fire. It was probably because the Japanese attacked from the rear, but they were discovered by Xiaodongbei!"
Zhang Wanhe said "hehe" and said, "When will the Japanese attack be bad? They just want to attack when Xiaodongdong is there. Isn't this boring?"
As he said that, he went to the factory to discuss the turning machine with his own eyes.
Zhang Wanhe didn't take the Japanese sneak attack at all. In his opinion, there was nothing that could not be solved if Xiaobei was there.
It was not until the top of the mountain that Zhang Wanhe realized that something was wrong.
Because Gao Deshan knew that Zhang Wanhe was in the first branch, he personally led the main force of the guard platoon to guard the first branch.
The situation in this cave is similar to that in Wang Xuexin's place, and he was beaten backwards by the Japanese agents.
It’s just that Gao Deshan has the advantage of military strength, so he can hold on for a long time.
Just when Gaodeshan was about to hold on, he suddenly heard the explosion and gunshots of the Japanese.
Soon after, Wang Xuexin shouted: "Is it the platoon leader Gao? The Japanese have been wiped out by us, so it's safe! Have you found the factory director?"
Zhang Wanhe replied: "I'm here, it's fine!"
As he said that, he raised his head at Hardware: "Look, I'm right? What are you worried about? How could the Japanese be the opponent of Xiaobeidong!"
How could Zhang Wanhe know that if Wang Xuexin hadn't had an idea of using jumping thunder as a grenade, this battle would have been another ending.
