Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 672 Is this a trebuchet?

The observation post ambushed in the mountains and forests used semaphore to notify the Japanese troops behind the ridge to start their operations, and the faces of the other three giants of the Independence Battalion all burst into wonder.

Their battalion commander's tactical plan, which was temporarily modified an hour ago, was successful again.

Yes, since the special operations team sent a secret message that the Japanese army had already marched in the direction of Laojinkeng, nearly 1700 people in the entire army wore hats disguised by vegetation, and even their arms and thighs were tied with dead branches to enter the battle position, waiting bitterly There was no sign of the Japanese army for more than an hour.

On the main road where 94 tanks can pass, the average marching speed of the Japanese army is only 2 kilometers per hour. It is not because the Japanese army has short legs, but the cautiousness of the Japanese commander is outrageous.

Every time they pass through a seemingly dangerous area, the sharp guards will search carefully until it is confirmed that it is safe to pass.

Therefore, according to the characteristics of the Japanese army's march reported by the special warfare team, Tang Dao decided to draw out three Sichuan infantry companies that had been merged into the independent battalion one hour ago, with the deputy battalion commander Guo Shouzhi as the commander. Armed at the meter.

Instead of letting him worry about being attacked, it is better to let him find out that Tang Dao played the opposite trick of "striking the grass to scare the snake".

What is the greatest fear of human beings?is unknown.

Just like why humans fear death so much, it is because no one knows what is behind death.

So Tang Dao simply put up a small formation, telling the Japanese army clearly that Lao Tzu is here and has the ability to fight.

The Japanese commander, who had been cautious all the way, was really fooled, and the main force rushed straight to the battlefield aggressively.

Of course, this psychological formation of "I've caught you" is also determined by the terrain of the valley in Laojinkeng. The valley with a width of more than 200 meters has enough space for those who walk through the valley. The military has a great sense of security.

The first to enter the fighting state was not the main force of the independent battalion behind the ridges on both sides of the valley, but the special warfare team. .

The order Gu Xishui received was to report the movement of the Japanese army along the way, and try his best to prevent the Japanese army from sending out a distress signal after the battle started.

Therefore, the two special operations teams followed all the way, and the main target they were looking for was not the Japanese military officers who surrendered their identities and disguised themselves as soldiers, but the signal soldiers and field radio stations closely guarded by the Japanese army.

Gu Xishui, Niu Er, and the others who followed all the way have already locked their targets, and once the war starts, they will attack the locked targets fiercely.

Takeuchi Kumoyama, who dreamed of becoming the protagonist but didn't know that he was already the protagonist, sweated in vain all the way.

Time passed quietly, and the sound of loud footsteps shattered the original tranquility of the valley.

Since knowing that the vanguard squadron has encountered the enemy, the Japanese army's marching speed this time is faster than expected.

A total of more than 6 miles and 3000 meters of river valley, the trotting forward of the Japanese army took 18 minutes to finish the run, and it was still fully armed.

This result is really impressive, almost reaching the qualification standard for Chinese soldiers to be fully armed off-road in the future.

No wonder this Japanese army is known as the "Steel Army". In this era, regardless of equipment, the current Chinese army is probably only a handful of elite troops who have experienced tens of thousands of miles of strategic transfer. match.

Of course, this may also have something to do with the flat terrain in the valley.

The river valley is used as a floodway all the year round. Except for the road that can be used for horse-drawn carriages, the open area is basically a rocky beach. There are no crops, but some weeds grow sporadically.

The Shuangxi River, which is less than three meters wide, flows eastward along the mountain, while the mountain road winds along the mountain on the other side, at the foot of the mountain.

There is no difficulty of going up and down the mountain, and the road is relatively wide. Not only the Japanese infantry ran vigorously, but the two leading 94 armored vehicles even ran smoothly with black smoke.

The Japanese commander of the first 94 armored vehicle even opened the top hatch, exposing the entire upper body. While looking around vigilantly, he gave directions to the driver of the armored vehicle and enjoyed the scenery of the mountains in southern Anhui, China.

Along the way, as pioneers, none of the drivers of the two 94 armored vehicles who were most likely to be attacked dared to show their faces. Except for getting out of the car to pee, most of them stayed in the armored vehicles for a few hours. It's almost suffocating people.

Especially the No. 1 car, from time to time, it has to be stuffed into the big head and thick neck of the Captain of the Zuo Lian.The feeling of being face-to-face and chest-to-chest with an army officer is really terrible. The second lieutenant of the armored soldier who leans out half of his body does not want to experience it again in his life. If he can, he would rather stay so close to a pig last a while.

At least, he didn't have to accidentally kiss a certain officer's face because of the bumps, and he had to say sorry loudly. His ten toes almost pierced through the thick sole of the cowhide military boots.

Now, in this beautiful place with mountains and rivers, with the cool mountain breeze blowing, people's mood can't help but get better.

The mountains in southern Anhui are mostly composed of lava from volcanic eruptions tens of millions of years ago, which is a typical granite landform.

Uncanny workmanship and jagged rocks are one of the characteristics of the mountainous areas in southern Anhui.But it is not to say that there are no trees growing on the rocky mountains with lava as the bottom.On the contrary, there are many big trees in the mountains that few people have visited for thousands of years.

Especially in this era, in China, where the industrial winds have not even blown the plains, all the mountainous areas have basically maintained their original appearance.

In addition to digging some food from the small land, the simple mountain people have to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, hunt some wild things from the mountains and collect mountain products to make a living!
It's not like the future, where the whole mountain can be hollowed out for quarrying and a big hole can be left, and the whole mountain can be chopped down to make money for logging.

It is now, and it is what it was in ancient times, and it is still what it is now.

The two not-so-high mountain collars firmly sandwiching the valley in the middle are lush and lush from the middle of the mountain, with overgrown bushes and lush forests, which are really suitable for concealment.Even if the Japanese army wanted to go up to check, they would not even think about climbing up for more than ten or twenty minutes.

What's more, in order not to be exposed, except for a very small number of observation posts, the main force of the independent battalion was hidden behind the ridge. It was not until the Japanese army began to enter the valley in large numbers that they quietly entered their respective ambush positions from the woods.

It was not rifles, machine guns, or mortars that launched the first round of attack.

In other words, the officers and soldiers of the Artillery Company of the Independent Battalion threw aside their beloved mortars for the first time, and used the crude large-caliber 'artillery' that used oil barrels as barrels.

They who gave the order to launch the first round of attack only need to complete a tactical action and shoot all the explosive packs on hand into the river valley.

There is no requirement for accuracy, only hand speed, and the explosive package should be 'emptied' in the shortest possible time.

Of course, in order to prevent the explosive package from falling into the valley and falling on the mountain, there will be no infantry positions in front of all the 'Flying Thunder Cannons'.

Once that thing falls on their own positions, the Chinese soldiers who are most familiar with the power of explosives will know that if an infantry squad is blown up to the sky, it will be blessed by gods and Buddhas, and the most daring Chinese soldiers will not dare to shoot at the muzzle of that thing. stay down.

A total of 100 gasoline barrels were used to make "unconscionable cannons". In the entire 3000-meter-long river valley, more than 100 soldiers from the artillery company brought two Sichuan infantry companies to help them. On average, 4 people were responsible for one gasoline barrel.

The reason why as many as four people are in charge of such a crude "artillery" is that although the shell loading is simple, the lower half of the gasoline barrel that serves as the cannon body and barrel must be buried in the soil, relying on the ground to fill it. Counteracts the massive recoil produced by black powder explosions.

The workload is not as easy as imagined, and the TV screen of the gasoline canister being ignited and fired as soon as it is placed on the ground is simply unbearable to look at.

As soon as the cannon is fired, the gasoline barrel must fly into the sky!Do you think that the power to launch several kilograms of explosives more than 100 meters away is for nothing?

Do you understand that the effect of force is mutual?Even if Tang Dao didn't pass his junior high school physics, he still knows this kind of simple physics knowledge.

In the first round of attack, 100 explosive packages shot up into the sky, flew more than [-] meters behind the ridge into the sky, and then drew a beautiful arc to fall on the heads of the Japanese soldiers who were trotting in the valley to enjoy the scenery.

"Nani?" The Japanese infantrymen looked up at the big black fell from the sky, their eyes froze.

Did the Chinese use the ancient trebuchet?

But they are not cities!
