Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2864: Attack from all sides!

The shells whistled sharply and smashed into the back wall of the Japanese granary like meteors.

The shell landed on the back wall, instantly creating a huge fireball, with bricks and stones flying everywhere and concrete fragments shooting out in all directions like bullets.

A huge gap was blown out in the originally solid back wall, and dust and smoke filled the air, obscuring the surrounding vision.

Immediately afterwards, subsequent artillery shells followed like raindrops.

Some shells fell directly into the warehouse and exploded among the mountains of grain bags. A raging fire broke out instantly. The grain bags were ignited, making crackling sounds, and the flames spread rapidly, illuminating the darkness in the warehouse as if it were daytime.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky, and a choking smell filled the air.

The Japanese were originally preparing to encircle and wipe out Ma Hu and others with all their strength, but when they heard the loud explosion coming from the back wall, they suddenly panicked.

Some of the Japanese turned their guns around and rushed towards the back wall, trying to stop the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces fighters attacking from the rear.

The other part continued to engage in fierce fire with Ma Hu's squad, and the scene fell into chaos.

The puppet army positions outside the warehouse were also turned upside down by the sudden artillery fire.

The shells exploded around the puppet army's positions, and the shock waves generated by the explosion knocked the puppet soldiers to the ground.

Some puppet soldiers were blown to pieces, while others were deafened and dizzy by the huge explosion. They collapsed to the ground, opened their mouths in horror, but could not make any sound.

The trenches were blown down, sandbags were blown everywhere, and the puppet army's fortifications were destroyed in an instant.

"Hold on! Hold on, all of you!"

The puppet army officer shouted at the top of his lungs, trying to keep his position, but his voice was soon drowned out by the sound of explosions and the screams of the puppet soldiers.

The puppet soldiers did not listen to his command at all and were only concerned with escaping for their own lives, causing the entire position to become a mess.

At the same time, Long Qianyan and Ma Shanpao, each leading Chunjianghao's team one and team two, launched an attack from both sides of the granary.

At this time Ma Hu has been exposed, and Duanwu has no better way. Unless he abandons Ma Hu and others, he can only use thunder and lightning to quickly capture the Japanese granary. Otherwise, if time is delayed too long, the Japs will definitely react.

Long Qianyan led the Chunjiang team and launched a fierce attack on the south side of the granary.

Taking advantage of the dust and smoke raised by the artillery fire, they quickly approached the Japanese army's permanent fortifications.

The Japanese machine guns kept firing from the gun holes, and the anti-Japanese fighters who were in the front were shot and fell to the ground one after another.

Long Qianyan ordered the mortars and grenade launchers to be leveled and fired at the Japanese fortress.

The Japanese machine gun went silent instantly. Long Qianyan took the lead and threw a grenade into the hole of the Japanese machine gun.

boom! Boom boom!

The sound of the explosion came from the Japanese bunker, accompanied by the Japanese's exclamations and screams.

Other anti-Japanese fighters followed suit. In an instant, grenades rained down around the fortifications and on the puppet army's positions, exploding one after another.

The huge explosion shook the earth and flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the night sky.

Under the impact of continuous explosions, cracks began to appear on the heavy concrete fortifications, and then they collapsed with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust.

The puppet army was also confused by this sudden and fierce attack.

Moreover, before they could react, Long Qianyan had already rushed into the fortifications with the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces soldiers.

The submachine guns in the hands of the anti-Japanese fighters kept spurting out flames, and the bullets swept towards the puppet troops like a violent storm. The puppet troops were shot and fell to the ground one after another, screaming incessantly, and they almost collapsed at the first blow, with no room for resistance at all.

At the same time, Ma Shanpao also led Chunjianghao's second team to launch an attack from the north side of Lingnan granary.

They also used mortars and grenade launchers to bombard the Japanese fortifications.

Duanwu had thought of this when he came to Lingnan. Since the Japanese had built such a large granary in Lingnan, they would definitely be well prepared.

The most common method used by the Japanese was to use solid steel bars and concrete to build fortresses and fortifications.

So in response to the Japanese's conventional tactics, Duanwu brought almost all the portable mortars and grenade launchers of the Anti-Japanese Brigade.

And just as Duanwu had expected, the Japanese fortifications were strong, and without heavy firepower suppression, there would inevitably be heavy casualties.

"Hit me hard!"

With a command from Mashan Pao, the shells whizzed towards the Japanese fortifications on the north side of the granary.

boom! boom!
There were loud explosions and mortar shells sent concrete fragments flying everywhere.

The sturdy fortifications were shaking under the raging artillery fire, and the Japanese machine guns were silenced.

Ma Shanpao took the lead and led Chunjianghao's second team to rush towards the chaotic puppet army positions.

Faced with the overwhelming offensive of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, the puppet troops had no power to resist and could only retreat step by step.

As a result, under the pincer attack from Long Qianyan and Ma Shanpao's teams, the puppet troops on both sides of the granary suffered heavy casualties.

The seemingly indestructible permanent fortifications of the Japanese were blown to pieces by the artillery fire of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces and completely lost their defensive function.

Inside the granary, the Japanese officers were anxiously directing their subordinates to deal with the four-sided attack from the anti-Japanese brigade.

He heard fierce gunfire coming from four directions of the granary, and his face instantly became gloomier.

He knew that the situation had become extremely critical. If he failed to request support in time, the granary would be lost.

The Japanese officer quickly ran to the radio station, picked up the microphone with trembling hands, and shouted to the communicator in a hurried and terrified tone: "Quick! Send a telegram to the headquarters. The Lingnan granary was attacked on a large scale by the Anti-Japanese United Army. The enemy's firepower is fierce. Our fortifications have been destroyed and the losses are heavy. Request emergency support, the sooner the better!"

The radio operator did not dare to delay for a moment. His fingers moved quickly on the transmitter and sent out the distress signal.

After the Japanese officer sent the telegram, his eyes revealed a trace of despair and sadness. He gritted his teeth and shouted to the Japanese soldiers around him: "Hold on! You must defend the granary at all costs. Support will arrive soon!"

However, at this time, the inside and outside of the granary were already in chaos.

The team led by Ma Hu has defeated the Japanese who had surrounded them before.

Because the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces were attacking the granary from all directions.

The Japs that had surrounded them before retreated one after another, and in the end only a dozen or so Japs were left to stop them.

But how could a dozen Japanese soldiers be enough to defeat Ma Hu and others?
After Ma Hu discovered that the Japanese's firepower had weakened, he immediately launched a counterattack, annihilated all the Japanese who were blocking them, and then moved towards the command post of the Japanese granary.

They wanted to decapitate the enemy. As long as they killed the enemy's headquarters, the Lingnan granary would be in their pocket.

At the same time, the two teams led by Long Qianyan and Ma Shanpao, after breaking through the Japanese fortifications in the north and south, quickly advanced towards the Japanese command post in the granary.

And their goal is only one, that is to behead and kill the commander of the Japanese army! .
