Chapter 891 The host has run away, why should the guests stay?
Cursing, Chen Jun came directly to a place about fifty meters away from the artillery position. He stood with his hands on his hips between two objects covered with branches and clapped his hands: "Go for it."
The artillery has always had a platoon of soldiers responsible for their safety, and the soldiers are deployed alternately with light and heavy machine guns.
And this is just a drizzle. The real killer weapon guarded by the artillery should be the two twin-mounted anti-aircraft machine guns with covers that Zhou Weiguo, against all odds, pulled from the anti-aircraft machine gun company.
This type of machine gun originally used a magazine, but after Ono and Takeshita Shun tinkered with it, they directly replaced it with a canvas feed. Both its firing rate and killing power were far greater than those of a magazine, and the artillery company was also equipped with artillery guns to resist sneak attacks from the Japanese army.
"Load the gun." Chen Jun personally walked over to the anti-aircraft machine gun and tapped it. "Today, we'll make sure those beasts never come back. We've all been on the sidelines lately, so we'll take this opportunity to eat some horse meat."
The captain of the Japanese cavalry squadron, Saburo Kamii, smiled smugly on his horse.
The infantry was entangled with the enemy, and he was ordered to take advantage of this opportunity to destroy the enemy artillery, and after eliminating them, quickly attack the Japanese army from the rear, thereby attacking them from both sides, annihilating this mountain city army, and then buying time for the troops to advance.
Stupid. Seeing that he had already entered the range of 200 meters, the other party did not fight back. This made him directly classify this invading team from Shancheng as stupid outliers in his mind.
The cavalry was fast, so if you wanted to intercept them, you had to do it about 200 meters away. Regardless of whether you could hit them or not, you had to at least put pressure on the horses. But this mountain city didn't intercept them.
"Soldiers, victory is at hand. Follow me, charge." Uei Saburo drew his command knife from his waist and pointed it at the artillery position. Little did he know that, just one o'clock to his hour, between two large trees, two anti-aircraft machine guns were already pointed directly at them.
The sound of iron hooves was getting closer and closer.
Chen Jun took the kettle from his waist. What he filled it with was not water, but white wine.
Before entering Myanmar, the Propaganda Department under the jurisdiction of Wang Yun of the Brigade Command had already explained that Myanmar is rainy and the climate changes greatly. In order to cope with sudden rainfall and the inability to obtain other supplies, each soldier must ensure that he has a pot of white wine in case of emergency. In addition, each person carries an wormwood purse distributed by the field hospital to repel mosquitoes.
I don’t know how effective it is, but at least I won’t get bitten to death.
"Get ready." Chen Jun gulped down two large gulps and aimed his gun at the distance. "Attack the people first, don't rush to attack the horses. Leave the horses here. Many vehicles can't get through here in Myanmar, so they can be used for transporting supplies. If you can't, kill them."
bang bang bang...
The anti-aircraft machine guns were first aimed at the Japanese cavalry in the distance.
A cloud of blood appeared. Uei Saburo, who hadn't been hit, shuddered. Then, his gaze fixed on the anti-aircraft guns spurting flames in the distance, and he frantically questioned, "Are they crazy? Why are they using anti-aircraft guns here? Do they even follow military regulations?"
Anti-aircraft machine guns. Not to mention the small number of people we have, even if more people come, they will be killed by this weapon. This weapon will rip people into pieces and then continue to fire forward, which can completely kill two people with one.
“Scatter, scatter…”
boom……
Before Kamii Saburo could finish his words, a bullet hit him directly. Before his consciousness faded, he had only one thought in his mind.
People from mountain cities are really despicable.
"mean."
Similarly, at this moment, the 55th Division Command.
Takeuchi Hiroshi also slammed his fist on the table.
The troops of the two brigades almost took turns attacking, but he still failed to capture Tonggu. This was a shame for his military career.
If his own troops were unable to defeat the independent brigade in Tonggu, that would be understandable. The enemy came here a few days earlier than him and made deployments. However, after the British army withdrew today, the troops he mobilized to attack still failed to break through the enemy's position. Instead, he was ambushed by the enemy, losing several artillery pieces and five or six armored vehicles.
For him, this was a truly humiliating thing.
"Shoot the officer in charge of the guard." Takeuchi Hiroshi gave the order to his adjutant. Then he came to the map, and the chief of staff pointed at it. "They are resisting so fiercely. I'm afraid it's because of the supplies in the rear. In addition, our reconnaissance personnel have also detected that the 4th and 5th Air Force Groups in the direction of Mandalay are ready to take off."
supplies?
Takeuchi Hiroshi narrowed his eyes for a moment, then turned his head and said, "Pass the order down. The troops will cease their attack and rest for a day."
"General, why don't you take a break now?"
"Give them some time to move the supplies. I think once the transportation is complete, they won't be holding on to this place any longer."
His losses were almost equal to two to one. If the fight continued, the casualty ratio would be one to one, which he could not bear.
"The owner has already left, so why would the guests stay here? Unless there's something else they can take away, they won't stay here. In that case, let's give them some time to move."
They are just some insignificant supplies. There is no need to risk the lives of soldiers to fight for them.
Stopped.
Zhou Weiguo was discussing in the command center whether to replace the Second Regiment with the Fourth Regiment, but he suddenly received a report from the front that the Japanese army had withdrawn from Tonggu, even the tanks.
"Do you want to take over?" Fang Shengli asked.
Zhou Weiguo knocked on the table, opened his eyes, and asked Tian Jing beside him, "Did they really evacuate?"
"They have evacuated, but not completely. They are still occupying some streets in Tonggu. However, they are not planning to attack. Instead, they have started cooking."
Cook?
Fang Shengli didn't react for a moment and just hummed, "Are you kidding me?"
It's a war, and bombs can fall on your head at any time. A Japanese soldier is cooking at this time. He must be crazy.
"Let's cook too." Zhou Weiguo raised his lips slightly for a moment and then nodded; "Just do it in a big way and don't worry about anything else."
"Lao Zhou, if you cook at this time, we will be finished if they attack us. Once they attack, we..." Isn't that too presumptuous? Fang Shengli carefully reminded him, what should he do if the other party is plotting something?
"They won't attack." Zhou Weiguo stood up, tugged at his uniform, thought for a moment, turned around and asked Tian Jing, "Can you contact Xiaoye?"
