Chapter 91 Armored Train
Wang Xuexin intentionally guided the Japanese to build a railway, never just to let them fill a passage for tanks to enter.
Because this passage is too narrow, it is only a few dozen meters wide.
This width is easily blocked by the Japanese artillery fire.
If the artillery of the Jinsui Army can assist the Eighth Route Army in combat as planned, then the Eighth Route Army will certainly have the hope of attacking the city when fighting like this.
The problem is that Wang Xuexin believes that the Jinsui Army will not be so easy to talk to, and they always think about letting the Eighth Route Army bleed.
Therefore, Wang Xuexin believes that he can only rely on himself.
Therefore, what Wang Xuexin thought at the beginning was to use a train to open the city gate.
Not only do you need to use a train to open the city gate, but you also have to transport several tanks into the city, so that you can cooperate inside and outside... there is nothing to stop the tank battalion.
The monk's reconnaissance company was responsible for capturing the train.
At the beginning, Wang Xuexin was not very happy when he arranged this task to the monk.
"Battery Commander, you are not kind!" The monk curled his lips and said, "Comrades are all going to Yuncheng, but you asked me to rob the train! Is this matter still necessary for our reconnaissance company? Is it possible for the guerrillas to do it? They always do this, and it will be successful..."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Wang Xuexin interrupted the monk impatiently: "I said, monk, "You are the one who nourishes soldiers and uses troops for a thousand days. You usually have delicious food and drink to keep your reconnaissance company. Now you can't do it now. If you are asked to perform tasks, then you have any objections? Just say one thing, do it or not. If you don't do it, don't do it, let Shisha go!"
"Okay, battalion commander!" The monk immediately smiled: "Aren't I just talking about it? Of course I have to do it! Ensure the task is completed!"
The monk has this temper and is stubborn. No matter what he does, he wants to be happy and straightforward.
However, if the task is really arranged, he can execute it seriously. In addition, the task that is suitable for the reconnaissance company is highly skilled and brave. Otherwise, Wang Xuexin would have withdrawn him long ago.
Then as he spoke, the monk was happy again.
"So that's the case!" The monk happily touched his buzz cut: "Battleman Commander, you said you were hitting the city gate with a locomotive. I also said you were just grabbing a train to transport things? If you say you hit the city gate, how can I not do it?"
Wang Xuexin raised his hand and raised his head twice: "If you use a train to transport things, you still have to come to the reconnaissance company? The guerrillas cannot transport them? You are not allowed to do this or that in the future, do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand!" The monk responded with a smile.
This mission is nothing to the reconnaissance company, especially the three Japanese chariots that went with them.
The reconnaissance company separated from the main force in Longfengping.
They put on Japanese uniforms, drove a tank, rode in a car and a shoulder, swaggering eastward... They arrived at the railway line for more than thirty miles eastward, and only then could they stop the train.
Due to the outstanding camouflage of the scouts, as well as tanks and cars, and several Japanese maintenance personnel were also driven to march together... The Japanese can handle tank failures on the road, which is really a killing of two birds with one stone.
In this way, we can successfully arrive at the railway line.
After arriving, I prepared two small flags, and the tank stood at the two sides of the railway with black gun barrels pointing to the middle of the railway, just waiting.
As soon as the train came up, the small man holding the flag waved the flag and whistled in the direction of the train.
When the train driver saw this scene, there was no reason for him to keep going.
When they stopped, they asked the Japanese technicians to go up to talk, saying that there was a war in Yuncheng and that the railway was not accessible. They temporarily requisitioned trains to transport tanks and troops... In fact, the battle in Yuncheng had not yet begun, and the materials on the train could be transported to Yuncheng.
But the Japanese and puppet troops responsible for protecting the train did not know this. They gave up the train without saying a word. Several Japanese even asked for battle and said that they wanted to go to Yuncheng with the troops.
The Japanese were quite in good spirits, so the monk certainly couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded and brought them with him.
However, these "heroic" Japanese devils were unable to arrive in Yuncheng in the end.
On the way to Yuncheng, they were twisted by the monk and threw them to the side of the railway.
When the monk was about to arrive in Yuncheng, he was ready at the train connection...
If the locomotive hits the city gate, it will probably cause a cheating incident.
If the locomotive derails and the rear carriage is still connected, it will inevitably derail with the carriage.
Therefore, the front and the car must be separated at the last moment.
However, the monk was still a little late to separate. After the train car rushed into the city too hard, it hit the locomotive that was already crossing the railway, which hit the scout soldiers so hard that they fell to the ground in a daze.
The monk was flexible and rolled a few times on the spot to rush forward, then turned over and shouted: "All up, don't let the Japanese get close!"
As he said that, he raised the charge machine gun and swept down the Japanese devils next to the car.
After receiving the order, the soldiers immediately got up from the ground, raised their guns and attacked the Japanese on both sides.
The tank located in the middle of the carriage adjusted its muzzle, and with a "boom", it blew up the Japanese car transporting ammunition into the sky. The machine gun also fired bullets at the Japanese rushing in, harvesting the lives of these invaders like a sickle of the god of death.
Kenji Ikegami didn't react until this time. He pulled out his command knife and waved his carriage that rushed into the city hundreds of meters, shouting hysterically: "Destroy them and block the city gate!"
Kenji Ikegami knew what would happen if this continued.
The city gate has been broken by a train... It is nothing to be broken by a city gate. What is important is that the fortifications set up by Hyunji Ikegami behind the city gate were destroyed by the train.
What are sandbags, artillery, machine gun firepower, etc., the locomotive went to the side sweep of the side. Now the carriage behind us brought a team of Eighth Route Army and three tanks in and fought in a row... Not only did the imperial soldiers suffer heavy casualties, but the city gate will lose control.
If the city gate loses control, the Eighth Route Army troops and tanks will pour in from the city gate continuously, and nothing can stop them.
Therefore, there is only one chance now, that is, to eliminate these three cars and reorganize the city gate defense or block it.
But it's not easy to do this...
The reconnaissance company brought enough ammunition. After taking a car, he took a train. It was not difficult to bring more ammunition, so the bullets poured out in pieces like no money, and grenades were fired out in rows.
On the other hand, it would not be so easy for the Japanese to hit the Eighth Route Army soldiers in the carriage.
Because before the reconnaissance company arrived, sandbags were placed on both sides of the train carriage, and the train had become a trench...
In other words, the train has become an armored train, an armored train equipped with tanks.
