Zhu Tian: Beginning to Cross the Changjin Lake

Chapter 105 Li Guotao burned down the Watergate Bridge!

Because the volunteers had been struggling in the valley for several hours, the osprey whistles and charge bugles kept sounding, but not a single person was seen.

After a long time, these enemies inevitably became a little slack.

Li Guotao was waiting for this opportunity and took the opportunity to implement the next step.

Wu Wanli and several soldiers cautiously approached the Watergate Bridge and successfully hid in a position only a few dozen meters away from the Watergate Bridge.

Several people spread out and were all ready.

"Throw~!"

The squad leader said something softly, and Wu Wanli was the first to throw the grenade in his hand.

The grenade spun in the air and landed accurately on the Watergate Bridge.

"Bang~!"

A blazing flame rose up, a flame of thousands of degrees, instantly igniting the wood on the Watergate Bridge.

At the same time, more than a dozen incendiary grenades fell on the Watergate Bridge one after another, flames splashed everywhere, and instantly engulfed the entire Watergate Bridge.

Wu Wanli and his men each threw two incendiary grenades, and then they all quickly hid under the pipe, carefully crawled into a pipe through a gap, and retreated down the mountain along the pipe.

"Da da da~!"

Intensive gunfire rang out, and the machine guns on the enemy's position began to continuously fire at the foot of the mountain, but it was just a waste of bullets.

After Wu Wanli and his men came up, they discovered the hole that had been blown open in the previous battle. They drilled into the pipe and retreated all the way to a safe place at the foot of the mountain. There was no problem at all, which saved them a lot of trouble.

In a safe place far away, the soldiers had blasted holes in all four pipes, so they didn't have to worry about not being able to get out.

The entire Watergate Bridge was completely engulfed in flames, and enemy troops on both sides rushed up to try to put out the flames.

However, the white phosphorus grenade is so powerful that it is not easy to extinguish it.

Lei Gong hid on a hillside, watching a large number of enemy soldiers gathered at the bridgeheads on both sides, trying to put out the fire. He smiled, waved his hand and shouted, "Dinner is ready!"

"Dong dong dong~!"

The two mortars fired almost at the same time, and the shells fell into the enemy troops on both sides of the bridge with a sharp whistling sound.

"Boom~! Boom~!"

A violent explosion sounded, and the enemy was immediately thrown off their backs by the explosion, leaving many dead and injured.

The surviving enemy troops were so frightened that they fled in all directions and no longer cared about putting out the fire.

An enemy officer shouted: "Destroy the enemy mortars on the opposite side immediately."

"Report to the commander, the enemy's mortars are on the reverse slope, and our recoilless rifles can't hit them."

"Idiot! Use the mortars, fire at full speed, blow up their mortars!"

“Yes sir!”

Soon, a rumbling sound of artillery was heard from the enemy's position, and the shells fell on the hillside with a sharp whistling sound.

Wu Qianli turned his head and took a look.

Li Guotao smiled and said, "Old man Lei Dad is very experienced and cunning!"

"Don't worry! There will be no problem."

"This fire is burning well!"

Wu Qianli nodded and said, "This incendiary grenade is a good thing."

"The bridge built by the enemy is very solid. It is not easy to ignite such good wood with ordinary fire. Moreover, it will take several hours to burn through such wood." Li Guotao said with a smile: "Based on my experience of steaming buns in my hometown, if such good wood is to be completely burned through, it will normally take until dawn. However, the white phosphorus bomb is very powerful and can quickly burn through the wood. It won't take long before the bridge deck repaired by the enemy will be completely burned down."

"Hehe~! After a few shells and some casualties, I guess they've completely given up the idea of ​​putting out the fire."

Wu Qianli nodded and said, "There's no need to continue putting out the fire. Even if they can put it out, with the fire burning like this, can their tanks still get through?"

Li Guotao smiled and said, "This white phosphorus bomb is a good thing! Without it, how could we destroy the Watergate Bridge so easily?"

"Even a Molotov cocktail made of gasoline wouldn't have such an effect."

Wu Qianli frowned and said, "It is indeed a good thing, but it's a pity that we don't have much left."

Li Guotao smiled and said, "Why should we be afraid? The enemy is very rich and has plenty of these things. When we run out of them, we can just seize them on the battlefield."

Wu Qianli smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think the enemy is your warehouse? Even if you can seize some spoils, you can't seize whatever you want."

"Hehe~!"

Li Guotao smiled and said, "What's that saying? Everything is possible. Leave this matter to me."

"Whatever you want, just tell me and I'll get it for you."

It's impossible for others, but Li Guotao can really 'seize' whatever he wants.

Of course, the premise is that he can afford it.

Wu Qianli smiled and said, "Well, can you get me a plane back?"

"Just that B...B29, or B24 will do. Bring me one."

Li Guotao smiled bitterly and said, "You really know how to ask for too much. All right! When we go down to attack the enemy airport, I will try to get you one."

Wu Qianli continued, "I heard that the enemy's aircraft carrier is pretty good, so get me one."

Li Guotao rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Why bother with that? Forget about the aircraft carrier. I might as well bring the American continent to you."

"Fine!"

Wu Qianli smiled and said, "I'm waiting for you to bring the American continent over."

Li Guotao smiled and said, "Okay, I admit that I was bragging, okay?"

"It's not easy to make a plane, but it's no problem to make a tank, a cannon or something like that."

For Li Guotao, it is indeed difficult to get a plane. The main problem is that it is too expensive. It costs hundreds of thousands or even millions of points. It is not easy for Li Guotao to accumulate so many points.

Moreover, it would be hard to explain if we really seized a plane. Even if we seized other trophies, we could throw them onto the battlefield during the chaos and mix them in with the trophies.

But it is really difficult to handle something as big as an airplane.

Wu Qianli was just teasing him on purpose, and quickly said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense."

"Burning down the Watergate Bridge was only the beginning."

"Our real goal is to blow it up completely. Otherwise, the enemy will be able to repair it again in a few hours at most."

Li Guotao laughed and said, "Don't worry, the Watergate Bridge is already in our hands."

"Let's take a halftime break now, and then we'll play the second half in the late night."

Looking at the confident Li Guotao, Wu Qianli couldn't help but frowned.

Although he also admitted that Li Guotao's battle plan was indeed the most feasible, anything could happen on the battlefield and no one could guarantee that it would be foolproof. However, Li Guotao was so confident, as if everything was under his control.
