Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 338

Hearing the complaints from his regiment leader, Political Commissar Zhong of the 33rd Regiment glanced at his partner with interest, and then said while sorting out the ammunition box:

“You educated people, if you really want to fight a war, you'd be smarter than anyone else. All day long, you'll be using either white phosphorus bombs or individual flamethrowers.”

“According to me, the boss should transfer you to Director Huang's Weapons Experimental Research Bureau.”

“As a college student, you always stay on the front line and are inevitably overqualified. If you let people know this, they will think that our Eighth Route Army has no Bole.”

The current leader of the 33rd Regiment is Liu Bingyan. He was once a student in the Department of Mathematics at National BJ University. He joined the army during the 129th Movement.

Since becoming the head of the main regiment of the 9th Division of Jizhong, he has been working on improving or developing weapons more suitable for the Eighth Route Army.

The flamethrower just mentioned is the project that Commander Liu has been researching recently. After all, no one can refuse an efficient and lethal weapon.

Hearing this, a trace of yearning flashed in the young leader's eyes.

　Today, the Border Area Weapons Experimental Research Bureau has become a holy place in the minds of researchers.

“We'll talk about the future later. Let's handle the battle at hand first. This time the Japanese have used three divisions and two independent mixed brigades. Don't take it lightly.”

"I'm going to say hello to Lao Liu in the defense area next door and discuss the matter of assisting in defense. You need to worry more about the things on the position. If you have any questions, use the communicator to contact us in time."

Just as Commander Liu was about to leave on his bicycle, loud noises suddenly came from the enemy position in the distance.

A moment later, the northern city wall of Datong suffered a series of shelling.

The perspective comes to the 110th Division, the enemy's attack position.

“Order, the artillery regiment sets fire to the northern city wall of Datong! Your task is not to destroy it, but only to interfere with the Eighth Route Army above!”

“The 139th Regiment and the 140th Regiment are preparing to launch an attack. Before the sun sets today, the battle outside the city must be ended and a bridgehead must be established within the city!”

From then on, the war broke out.

The Japanese army aimed mountain and field artillery of various calibers at the Datong city wall, and the shells flew toward the north of the city with a whistling sound.

Ten seconds later, the smoke of the explosion rose from the city walls and walls, and the shock wave carried masonry fragments and swept towards the Eighth Route Army soldiers in various defense areas.

It is worth mentioning that the Japanese did not use all artillery in this attack, but chose to disperse it into the formations of various infantry brigades.

There is no way. After the defeats of the previous artillery battles, the artillerymen who have always been high-minded have to admit that their skills are inferior to others.

In case of another raid, the few barrel artillery pieces may not be taken advantage of by the Eighth Route Army.

“It's a black card, it's onboard!”

As the bombardment progressed, a commander and captain pulled out his command sword and rushed to the moat with his soldiers carrying the tools prepared in advance.

Although the North China Front did not have much experience in crossing rivers, their colleagues in the south provided them with a lot of experience.

Before the official start of the general offensive, the Japanese produced a large number of folding boats, light boats, rubber boats, and pontoon boats, and even cut down trees from local materials to make pontoons.

Just when the 108th Infantry Brigade was about to approach the moat, the defenders on the city wall seized the opportunity and launched the first wave of counterattack.

"put!"

After receiving the order, the artillerymen on the northern city wall immediately opened fire, frantically typing at the Japanese below.

Although due to problems such as shooting boundaries, not many mortars were put into battle. But dozens of doors were still not a small number, and the full-speed volley caused the Japanese who were caught off guard to suffer heavy losses.

Boom, boom, boom!

“Baga! It's those **** mortars again!”

“Don't you, the Eighth Route Army, have any other tricks?”

The current situation makes Kaho Ishii, who personally went to the front line to observe the war situation, heartbroken.

In order to avoid exposing the troops to the firepower of the Eighth Route Army for a long time, his two infantry regiments had to rush straight towards the moat.

As a result, the infantry has very limited space to take cover when facing artillery shells.

Heartache is heartache. As a major general brigade commander with extensive command experience, Kaho Ishii's on-the-spot reaction was not slow.

“Notify the artillery wing to fire special ammunition immediately! Yellow, white, and blue bullets will do. Take out all the stocks to save the situation!”

“Send power to the division commander! Apply for the use of Type 92 105 howitzers to cover the open space behind the moat. The Eighth Route Army must have prepared a large number of mines and obstacles there!”

"Hi!" Through the observation just now, the old Japanese found that the power of the 75mm mountain and field artillery had almost no substantive effect.

Let's not talk about whether the artillery shells can accurately hit the city wall. Even if they hit, it will be difficult to destroy the Eighth Route Army's firepower points hidden in the semi-permanent fortifications.

Instead of wasting artillery shells and time, it is better to use mustard gas, phosgene and diphenylcyanoarsine to disgust the enemy.

Your Eighth Route Army does have a lot of gas masks, so much so that every soldier in the main force has one. But daily training and actual combat are two different things. Who can guarantee that he can still fight at full strength in poisonous gas.

Two minutes later, the 110th Artillery Regiment took action immediately.

The Japanese artillerymen gave up grenades and instead used three types of Type 92 special bombs as suggested by Ishii Kaho.

At the same time, the division-level 105mm howitzer opened fire again, and several huge fireballs rose in the open space between the moat and the city wall.

"well!"

"It seems that my tactics are very effective. The Eighth Route Army's firepower has been weakened by more than one level!"

“Hurry across the river and let the engineers bring explosive packs close to the city wall before the enemy slows down!”

Facts have proved that Ishii Kaho's strange trick is indeed effective.

When streams of colorful poisonous gas exploded on the city wall, the soldiers in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region fell into a brief panic.

“Poison gas!”

“The little devil has released poison! Everyone put on the gas masks!”

“Don't panic, just follow the usual training steps! We used to be able to fight with rags, but now that we have advanced equipment, we don't need to be afraid!”

With an organization of grassroots commanders, the comrades quickly stabilized their formation and once again picked up their weapons to fight back at the enemies below.

However, things are changing rapidly on the battlefield, and even a short minute or two can change the situation.

While the soldiers of the 33rd Regiment were wearing gas masks, the leading troops of the 108th Brigade had already arrived at the banks of the moat and began to use the tools in their hands to cross the river.

In this situation, some comrades who could not remain calm had already reached for the secret weapon aside.

“Don't worry! Hold on tight!”

"No one is allowed to throw in advance without my order. Now is not the best time!"

When the regiment commander spoke, the soldiers naturally had no objection.

This is not only obedience to the commander, but also trust in a college student.

Facing the Japanese who were trying to forcibly cross the river, the rifles and light and heavy machine guns on the city wall opened fire. Coupled with grenades and mortars, the moat was suddenly filled with floating corpses, and even the river water turned red.

“Now! Throw it!”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers grabbed the glass bottles on the side without hesitation, and then threw them towards the moat below.

Forty meters away, again from high to low.

According to Commander Li Da, even a woman can throw it, let alone the Eighth Route Army soldiers whose physical fitness has been fully improved.

In an instant, tens of thousands of glass bottles were thrown into the moat. These bottles were filled with gasoline.

“Grenade! Mortar! 40 fire! Give them all to me!”

Boom, boom, boom!

In a violent explosion, the moat instantly turned into a sea of fire. The Japanese who forcibly crossed the river were caught off guard and were swallowed up by the fire.

Out of fear of the flames, the Japanese infantry in the rear instinctively wanted to retreat, but the artillery of the 33rd Regiment gave them no chance to retreat.

“The fats and oils of the human body are natural combustion accelerants. The more corpses, the more powerful the fire will be.”

“Don't beat those Japanese who are not dead and let them stir around with fire and gasoline. It's not easy to fight in the winter. We have to help the enemy keep warm!”

“They are all acquaintances! Let them be themselves in the fire!” (End of this chapter)
