Sword of Death Camp

Chapter 137 Dilemma
"The enemy is not in the village at all, but in a cave in the wild!"

This was the thought that popped up in the mind of the captain of the 5th Regiment of the Japanese Army after he saw the man who had drilled back from the hole and destroyed his artillery position.

"Go up and surround that hole, and look for other holes. The enemy has burrowed into the ground like a mouse. There must be other holes nearby!"

I have never eaten pork, and I have seen pigs walking.

Most of the Japanese who have never beaten rabbits, but have not been Sinicized, now know the truth of the three caves of the cunning rabbit.

Even if they don't know this truth, they have gone to the field to dig mice, and they still know that there are usually 3 to 4 exits in the mouse hole.

Therefore, the captain of the Fifth Regiment of the Japanese Army ordered that the area be immediately sealed off, looking for any suspicious openings.

"Is it coming? Is it coming soon?"

"Come, come, let's go!"

Soon in the tunnel, everyone's noise gradually calmed down, and then became silent.

soon.

The Japanese army surrounded the exposed hole, and found 3 to 5 holes in other nearby places, and they were all surrounded by water.

But at this time, near the entrances of several caves surrounded by people, one by one seemed to be a little high and protruding places suddenly exploded.

The smoke formed by the explosion of the black powder, as well as the countless ceramic fragments that flew out, surrounded several openings, and the surrounding Japanese troops fell into a desperate situation instantly.

Perhaps sometimes, broken ceramic pieces are more ruthless than iron pieces, because most capons in ancient times were made of ceramic pieces. If they are broken properly, the edges and corners on that side are sharper than knives.

It is extremely lethal when flying out.

When the smoke dissipated, at least 5 to 40 Japanese soldiers lay down around the five openings.

The captain of the 5th Regiment of the Japanese Army was shocked and stunned. How many of his squadrons just disappeared?

Moreover, seeing that there were many wounded soldiers who did not die immediately, he did not dare to send people up to treat them.

What if there are still landmines?

That's right, everyone can see that this is a landmine attack.

In fact, many Japanese soldiers were not hit by the broken porcelain pieces that flew out after the mine exploded, but were purely shattered by the shock wave generated by the explosion, because the landmines they buried were filled with too much black powder.

can you believe it?

What they buried turned out to be a large earthen jar, that is, a large earthen jar with a narrow mouth or a large jar with a narrow mouth, which was thicker than the wall of the earthen jar or jar, that is, a super-large mine.

The charge weighed 50 catties or more, and it contained the best black powder formula Chen Shanhe had produced.

Chen Shanhe lacked everything here, except for the saltpeter and sulfur used to make black gunpowder.

This also caused the landmines created by Chen Shanhe's death camp to grow larger and more numerous.

Big landmines are just as useful as they are now, and they are specially used to intimidate little devils.

There are many types of landmines, with a maximum charge of 20 catties, which is an ordinary small landmine.

When Chen Shanhe held a meeting with the company squad leader and the combat team leader, he proposed a concept, a term that is not yet known in the Asian battlefield, or a term that people in this time and space do not know, called "Mine Swamp".

This was after Germany tore up the contract and attacked the Soviet Union in June 1941. The Soviet Union couldn't bear it at first, and their strength was still a bit far behind that of Germany.

They later found a way and developed a combat concept, which is to quickly lay down a swamp of mines at the fastest speed when facing an attack.

Note the two words, slice, and swamp.

A piece refers to a wide range, swamp, representing secret and deadly.

In the early days, the Soviet army used the combat concept or method of landmine swamp to delay the German attack.

Let them have time to react to speed up the production capacity of domestic factories, so that they have the ability and room to fight back.

The germination of the concept of mine swamp began with the German army's aggressive offensive.

Chen Shanhe is a latecomer, or a future person, of course he knows this concept, and he feels that this concept is very useful.

Therefore, after receiving the two proven sulfur mines and saltpeter mines rewarded by the system in the future, he quietly sent the prisoner-of-war engineering team to mine there, and raised their living conditions and wages.

Then vigorously produce landmines in the base area.

After accumulating for such a period of time, he has the confidence to fight an offensive and defensive battle with the little devil on this piece of land.

If it was a meeting, Tian Yunxiao, the leader of the combat team in Wenjiagou Village, chose to believe Chen Shanhe's method of mine warfare and the concept of mine swamp out of reverence.

But he didn't expect the effect to be so good.

Not only is it good, the effect is simply unreasonable.

Just five or six large landmines in this area directly killed so many Japanese troops.

God!

If more times...

He didn't even dare to think about it.

"Team Leader Tian, ​​with just such a small trick to lure the enemy into deep, coupled with such a few big mines, you have killed so many devils!
We are just a fighting team! "

The combat team consisted of three people, and the other two were in high spirits. Looking out from the observation port, they could clearly see the casualties of the Japanese army at the trap just now.

Since there were as many as five or six cave entrances, the Japanese army assigned a small team to check and monitor each cave entrance.

The one who lost was such a small team.

Another combat team member said: "It's a pity that the Japanese army didn't come to check and watch many people, otherwise, it would not only be 50 people who were killed in the bombing!
In other words, the power of 50 catties of black powder is really great!
Who would have thought that our mere combat team would have killed so many devils?

Hey hey hey hey, team leader, in terms of credit, if there is any expansion, you will have to be the squad leader no matter what! "

Without turning his head, Tian Yunxiao said in a low voice: "It's probably coming soon, based on the achievements of our team, there were more than 20 devils in the past, plus today's victory.

If the team expands, someone from me, Tian, ​​may be able to earn a platoon leader with credit!
Hey hey hey hey! "

His team members couldn't help pouring cold water on him: "Team leader, don't dream, the battalion commander said that if you want to be an official, you must know how to read!

After studying for so long, do you know enough 200 characters?

I still want to be a platoon leader, I guess the squad leader is too much!
It is enough to be a squad leader with military exploits. You need to know 150 characters and be able to write a battle report. Do you know both of these? "

Tian Yunxiao became angry from embarrassment: "Gezi, you kid is going too far!
I have learned enough 150 characters long ago, and I am almost ready to recognize 200 characters. The battalion commander said, don't wait for three days to be admiring!
Don't look at people with old eyes! "

Pigeon, whose name is Pigeon, is similar to Gousheng. As the saying goes, a cheap name is easy to support. He smiled and said: "Team leader, I remember what the battalion commander said. It's a new look, not an eye-catcher!"

Tian Yunxiao snorted angrily: "Aren't they all the same?

All right, stop talking nonsense, go talk to them, all the militiamen are sticking to their own areas.

As long as the devils dare to enter their area, they can pull the strings!

Evacuate quickly after pulling the string, these big landmines have too much charge, and it is very likely that even the tunnel will collapse after the explosion! "

Matsushiki Changichi said something to the adjutant after seeing his own fifth unit of the direct line of troops in front of him being beaten up again and again and suffered heavy damage from the rear.

"Send No.11 Regiment Captain Sasaki to order him to send the No.11 Regiment's engineering unit to assist the Fifth Regiment in mine-clearing work!

Order the brigade directly under the engineering brigade, and go up to help, and try to clear all the mines in this village before dark! "

After receiving the order, the adjutant rushed to do it, and a staff officer couldn't help asking: "Your Excellency, brigade commander, why don't we bypass this village?

I feel that there are still many, many landmines in this village..."

Just when the staff officer hadn't finished speaking, there was another place in the village where the sound of a huge explosion sounded. Looking up, a cloud of black smoke rose slowly.

Songshi Changyi quickly took out the binoculars and looked in that direction. He could clearly see that 4 engineers were blown to the ground, but there should be more than 4 engineers in that place before the explosion.

But, all gone.

The explosion of a huge landmine directly killed everyone.

It's that scary.

But he was unmoved, because such a situation does not require him to make a decision.

He was a brigade commander, a general, not a second lieutenant of engineers.

Sure enough, after being frightened by the landmines, the engineering unit sent out personnel again, but this time they did not send as many as last time, but only sent two.

Only two people carried two mine detectors on their backs and began to detect whether there were mines.

Seeing that the soldiers in front changed tactics flexibly, Matsushika put down the binoculars with confidence. He was not worried that someone would shoot and kill the two engineers, because there must be countless guns pointing at any place where muzzles or people might emerge .

He was not worried that the two engineers would step on mines and die due to negligence at work.

Because if they step on a landmine and die, they will only die two.

Now he wants to answer the staff officer next to him: "You know, there is a building called the Great Wall in this country.

In fact, the Great Wall is not high, and if the horses are abandoned, this low Great Wall can be turned over at any time, and enter the pass to plunder!
But why, the nomads of all dynasties had to break through the Great Wall pass in a serious manner before they dared to invade the world inside the pass?
Do you know why?

Maybe you don't care about this kind of thing, so I'll tell you directly, because if they don't just defeat the pass and then attack, but come in by a small road, even if they successfully grab money and food, they are easy to be copied. road!

The situation we are encountering now is the same. There are so many landmines in this village. Thinking about it, there should be a lot of combat power, at least there are many combat personnel!

If we let this village go, and drive right into the heart of the death camp, chances are, they'll have mines behind us!

Let's make no advance and no retreat!

So now we have no choice but to see a village hit a village, see a landmine, lay a mine, and push it all the way..."

The voice also fell, and there was another explosion of a landmine. Song Shichang frowned, and raised the binoculars in his hand again to look at the place of the explosion.

Two more engineers were killed, and there was nothing left, not even scum.

Of course it's not that exaggerated, it's just a big landmine with fifty or sixty catties or even seventy or eighty catties of medicine, and it's really powerful when it explodes.

Those two engineers were blown to pieces.

In this case, it is obvious that the engineers did not find out whether there were landmines in the ground under their feet at all, because the location where the explosion just happened was the place where the engineers had already lined up.

In other words, the 18 kg mine detector carried by the archer is actually useless, and it is impossible to detect whether the opponent has planted a mine on the ground.

Then they stepped on it ignorantly.

Someone, who intends to grope through the field, does not intend to walk.

But it blew up again. Obviously, the wild is not good, no matter where you go, there is a risk.

"Hahaha! This is the mine detector that the battalion commander told us in class that the Japanese army would use!
But the Japanese army never thought about it. The landmines we buried were all made of ceramic shells, and there was no metal inside. Their mine detectors could only detect metal, so they couldn't help us!
Hey hey hey hey, piss them off! "

Really angry, but also helpless.

It seems that serious demining is impossible.

Songshi Changyi had no choice but to send an adjutant to inform that instead of engineering demining, he would directly use the artillery brigade directly under the brigade to flatten the village.

After flattening the village directly, bypass the village and move on.

The artillery brigade directly under a brigade is ruthless. Mountain artillery, mortars, and Type 92 infantry artillery all go into battle directly.

Towards the village of three 400 people in front of him, he poured his own ammunition.After blowing up every seemingly intact house in the village, they abandoned the village and started moving forward.

It's still engineers exploring the way.

However, I don't know what the next mine was made of. The mine detectors of the engineers really couldn't see any mines, and they walked over without finding anything.

However, on the way after the engineers cleared the mines, another group of people triggered a large mine and lost more than 20 people.

"What's going on, call me Mr. Yusheng from the Engineering Brigade!"

Song Shichang couldn't sit still anymore, the engineers had cleared the mines, and it was very clear that the road was safe, why was it still blown up by the mines?

If they can't even trust engineers and soldiers, who should they trust?

The brigade was directly under the engineering brigade, and the captain, Yusheng Ichiro, came trotting all the way, holding a broken tile that was probably a water tank in his hand.

"Your Excellency, Head of the Brigade!"

"Mr. Yusheng, why did the mines explode on the way your engineering brigade passed the mines?"

Yusheng Ichiro handed over a broken tile with both hands: "Your Excellency, brigade commander, this is the reason why my engineering brigade can't really clear mines.

The opponent's landmines are not actually metal shells, but large water tanks made of ceramics.

Due to the large amount of charge, it is very powerful. For this kind of mine, the mine detector cannot play any role! "

This is the helpless reply of an engineering brigade captain.

"Baga, the engineers can't clear the landmines, so what do you need the engineers to do!
Go find a way! "
