Chapter 1406 Plan ahead
Three guns and eight roads means that ordinary soldiers on the battlefield may not even have a complete bridge with five bullets.

The 23rd regiment is the main force, yes,

The first battalion crossed the river to support the brothers' troops. Just like the relatives of the poor family, the soldiers changed their patched and patched military uniforms and put on the military uniforms that were almost unpatched.

Naturally, the equipment should not look too shabby. Before departure, the regiment headquarters added [-] rounds of reloaded ammunition for the soldiers in the border area, with more than ten ammunition per capita. The whole battalion had three Czech light machine guns.

As the main force, they have such local tyrants' equipment. It is estimated that they can brighten the eyes of the soldiers of the clinking poor brothers on the other side of the blind river.

Battalion Commander Dai was thinking about his thoughts while carefully observing the situation of the devils on the other side of the river. Now the soldiers crossing the river can only become the targets of the enemy who are good at long-distance shooting. It is unrealistic to cross the river in the current position.

Meng Qingwu, director of the Divisional Political Department who saw off the First Battalion, planned to find out why the devils appeared on the other side of the river, judge the devils' next movements, and take countermeasures in advance.

Seeing a large number of devils unexpectedly appearing on the other side of the river, Zhao Zhenya immediately decided to go to the other side of the river with the first battalion to see what was going on.

If there are not many devils, then give them a vote.

As the main force group, during the spring, summer and autumn enemy raids, they hid in Tibet and moved. After the ghost raids left, they installed a few devils and puppet army gun towers every three or two months, and now devil cars appeared on the opposite bank.

Don't miss this opportunity to make a fortune.

The guard squad brought in immediately transferred to the first battalion, and the two soldiers immediately returned to the first battalion, and informed the regiment's radio squad to set off with the team.

The 23rd regiment is the main force of the third division, so it is naturally not comparable to ordinary troops.

Since we are going to show off to the brother troops, bring a radio to let them learn a lot
It's hot in midsummer.

Standing on the breezy river embankment high above the plains and fields.

Totally a joy to behold.

Captain Guizi is in a good mood. This year is the 18th year of the Showa era, so the front army formulated the combat code name "North China Front Army No. 12 Army Combat in Shiqiu Luxi."

At the end of summer and autumn, he is about to carry out the top-secret [Eighteen Autumn Bacterial Warfare]

The equipment on the car is very different from the past.

The living supplies and ammunition that usually come out to sweep are missing.

There are brass pots and pots packed in boxes in the carriage.

The ammunition boxes contained in the second carriage seemed to be quite different from the previous ammunition.

On the brown wooden box, the skull logo was sprayed with paint.

Next to it is a large white bird character: ガス爆弾! (gas bomb)

Devil gas bombs are divided into four types, marked with four colors.

The first is the green bomb, commonly known as tear gas bomb, which only chokes people and makes people cry, and is the least powerful and harmful. It is also called chemical bomb.

The second type is the red bomb, which releases a poisonous gas that strongly irritates the respiratory organs when it explodes. It is commonly known as a "sneeze bomb", which is much more powerful than choking.

The third type is the yellow bomb, which is actually a kind of erosive gas bomb. After use, it can cause ulceration of various mucous membranes that may come into contact with the air, such as the skin and respiratory tract.

Four of them are tea bombs, which are the real gas bombs. The bombs are filled with highly poisonous gas, which can directly cause heart failure and death, such as mustard gas.

The use of poison gas bombs is very restricted, and the riverside is not a good place to release poison gas.

For the time being, no one seems to know what the devil is going to do.

More than two hundred devils stopped on the river bank.

The military doctor who accompanied the team muttered to the captain for a while on the embankment.

The two separate.

The medic started fiddling with the brass jar.

And the captain gave an order.

The devils under him started to disperse with their engineering shovels.

Part of the alert.

Part of it came to the gap where the common people diverted water from the embankment into the irrigation canal to irrigate the land.

Looking at the actions of the devils, it seems that they are just trying to widen the gap.

The gap in the river channel more than ten meters wide was widened, and the difficulty was not too great. The devils did not seem to intend to use explosives to directly blow up the river embankment.

As a top-secret plan, it can only be done secretly.

Manpower can dig it out, there is no need to use explosives to make too much noise.

Behind a low slope on the south side.

Su Qing looked at the enemy's actions on the embankment with some puzzlement.

"The little devil seems to be preparing to break the embankment." Cheng Haibo put down the binoculars.

Su Qing shook his head: "It's not quite right. If the devil wants to do this, he can let the puppet army do these things."

"It's really strange, then... do you think we should fight now?" Cheng Haibo, the leader of the regiment, took the initiative to ask Su Qing, the leader of the armed forces, for his opinion, and in his opinion, this seemed quite natural.

Su Qing felt a little conflicted. Almost all soldiers who can join the armed task force have special skills.

Before finding out the real situation of the enemy, it is not suitable for the time being to fight with the enemy.

The main reason was that Cheng Haibo's men were not strong enough.

The soldiers trained under the guidance of students who graduated from the Anti-Japanese University, and it is impossible to improve their combat level in a day or two.

Moreover, the area of ​​activity of the armed task force is different from that of the main combat force.

Naturally, the weapons used are also different. For ambushes in the mountains, street fighting in villages and cities, the shell gun is very useful.

When fighting against enemy positions in the open plains, the rifle is the main weapon, and the shell gun with insufficient range is basically a fire stick, even if you shoot, you can only hear it.

But when in close contact with the enemy, the shell gun can become a big killer.

Road South Command.

The Dragon King Temple on the edge of the canal.

Captain Pei stood on a tree branch in the east of the village, and the correspondent who came back from the north reported to him the news that the devil had gone to the embankment.

He stood on the branch and never got off.

Villagers in the village have been transferred to.

The sound of running footsteps approached from the village.

The correspondent's head was full of sweat: "Report to the captain, deputy head Zhao of the 23rd Regiment of the Third Division of Lu Province has brought his colleagues across the river!"

"Where is it? Please!" Captain Pei was overjoyed.

"They said that there were devils coming from the north by boat from the south. The leading soldiers were resting in the village, and the follow-up troops were still crossing the river."

Captain Pei put his hand on the awning and looked south for a while. The river was shimmering and he couldn't see anything.

Immediately slipped down from the tree, strode into the village, and waved to the correspondent: "Go!"

Captain Pei came to the shade of the tree in the south of the village, and saw Vice-Tuan Zhao with a shell gun hanging on his shoulder: "Oh, Lao Zhao? I said that the magpies kept barking early this morning, why did you come in person? Rare visitor. "

Zhao Futuan stepped out from the shade of the tree, stretched out his hand to shake Captain Pei, and said with reproach in his tone, "What are you talking about, our family, there is no such thing as host or guest."

Captain Pei had something on his mind, so he went straight to the point: "Hey, what's the matter now?"

"It's okay, can't I come to visit you?"

"Welcome, warmly welcome." Captain Pei was stunned when he saw a large number of Eighth Route Army troops appearing from the south while speaking: "Hey, what are you bringing so many people here for?"

"I heard that your upstream was flooded, and the superior ordered us to come to support"

Captain Pei looked bitter: "Yes, let's make it clear, we are poor here, and you come with so many people, I won't be able to supply food if you stay for a long time."
