Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

The headquarters of the independent regiment of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

Kong Jie and his three battalion commanders were sitting in a dilapidated house. At this time, they had just received an order directly from the headquarters.

"It's so fun! It's so fun! This battle is getting more and more interesting! The headquarters actually overstepped the command, and every single one of the troops in the entire base area was mobilized!"

The battalion commander beside the fire bed nodded. No soldier could refuse the temptation of such a large-scale joint operation. However, he was also very interested in the inside story of this matter, so he tentatively asked:

"Captain, do you know who is so proud? The order only says to cooperate with friendly forces in the area and mainly use feint attacks to attract the attention of the Japanese."

He thought for a moment and continued to put forward his point of view.

"I think this is an order sent by the headquarters to cover a certain unit."

After listening to his battalion commander's analysis, Kong Jie knocked his pipe pot with some helplessness. As a battalion commander, I have no problem with my combat ability, but I am always so curious.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you really want to know the inside story, I will take you to the brigade headquarters to find out the news after the mission is over."

Kong Jie looked at the combat map on the table. He traced the points representing the Japanese artillery towers one by one with his fingers. After making a decision in his mind, he announced his current deployment.

"Pass my order! Assemble the first battalion! Target the enemy's turret and bring our newly established artillery platoon! This time I will personally lead the team. Even if it is a feint attack, we must show momentum."

"The second and third battalions are stationed in place! To prevent the Japanese from taking advantage of the situation, if there is any friction, the troops must focus on protecting the people!"

An hour later, the first battalion of the independent regiment was assembled. Kong Jie carried his big blade on his back and led the soldiers out of the regiment headquarters with murderous intent.

Outside the independent regiment's defense area, there was a Japanese gun tower more than ten miles away from the nearby county seat.

This place is barely considered an important transportation area, and the artillery towers standing here have made great contributions to the anti-guerrilla activities of the Japanese and puppet troops. Moreover, this artillery building is close to the railway, which perfectly fits the bunker as a lock in the Japanese prison policy.

The blockhouse covers an area of ​​about 130 square meters and is located in a condescending location on a high artificially raised slope. The terrain is dangerous and it can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It's all made of big green bricks, and the grenades are just for scratching it. Even if you use explosives, it won't help if you use less.

The entire blockhouse is 9.88 meters high, 8.4 meters long, and 4.9 meters wide, with a total of three and a half floors.

Different from the cylindrical turret that many people have in mind, the main body of this turret is a rectangular parallelepiped. The reason why it is three and a half floors is that there is a raised square observation deck on the east side of the turret.

The observation deck is also equipped with a searchlight, and there are multiple machine gun openings on the second and third floors of the turret. Although the shooting range is not very good, the quantity makes up for the quality.

Knowing that their own artillery towers were a thorn in the side of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese dug trenches around them that were two meters deep and more than three meters wide, connected by a suspension bridge. Moreover, mines and barbed wires have been deployed. As long as ordinary troops dare to come, this place will turn into a man-eating beast.

A small group of Japanese soldiers and a small number of puppet troops were stationed here to take care of them.

The Japs had already cleared all surrounding obstacles, and the weather was very clear today. Standing on the observation deck, they could clearly see the activities of people within a few kilometers of the surrounding area.

The actions of the Independent Regiment were not hidden from the sight of the Japanese. The lookout sneered while looking at the Eighth Route Army gathering in the distance, with a cruel smile on his lips:

"Are these Tubal soldiers here to die again? It seems they are still the so-called regular army."

Since their artillery building was built until now, it has been harassed by the Republic of China troops almost every week, but every time it has been a near miss. Even if it is surrounded, there are wells here and a large amount of grain and enough medicine, clothing and other military supplies are stored here.

This is why they can still feel confident when facing a battalion of enemies.

Five Taisho Type 11 and one Type 92 heavy machine guns are more than enough to take care of them.

Even if they rush forward with human lives, barbed wire and landmines can make it impossible for them to return!

So what if there are many people? It depends on the person's background when he comes out to hang out. They will kill as many as the young bastards who don't have any heavy weapons.

"All combatants stay in position and fire freely when the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side enters the shooting range. We have plenty of ammunition." the Japanese squad leader ordered.

But this time the Eighth Route Army's actions were different from those in the past. They first tested the position of the heavy machine guns in the turret, and then began to advance from the range that the heavy machine guns could not radiate.

The Japanese squad leader considered that even if the heavy machine gun was moved, the Eighth Route Army might change positions again, so he gave up this thankless idea.

Kong Jie led a battalion to a stop four hundred meters away from the gun tower, and began to dig bunkers covertly.

Before the attack, he specifically asked the nearby district team, and his comrades told him that the crooked gun in the gun tower had a short range and should not be treated based on past experience.

This made the Japanese in the fort unable to get up or down, as helpless as eunuchs visiting a brothel. But he took a closer look and found that the enemy on the opposite side was no different from the past.

"It's really boring. Can't you be a little innovative? There's no pressure at all. I don't even want to ask for help."

Seeing this situation, the Japanese team leader still didn't panic. He even felt bored and ordered his men to continue observing while he took out his collection and began to appreciate it.

Looking at the motionless Japanese artillery tower four hundred meters away, Kong Jie, an honest man, actually showed a sly smile like Li Yunlong.

"Are you all ready? Today I will teach the devils a lesson and show them the wisdom of the working people."

"Of course!"

"Hey, you guys are in for a treat today."

Beside Kong Jie, dozens of soldiers were already prepared. They use semi-wet but not dry firewood and straw as the base material, and use dried chili peppers or things that give off a pungent smell as the backbone.

Although the weather was sunny today, the wind was strong. Before the attack, they specially chose an upwind outlet.

Following Kong Jie's order, dozens of fires ignited the poisonous gas at the same time, and the thick smoke blew directly into the Japanese gun towers along with the wind. This spectacular scene can be seen even from miles away.

Kong Jie looked at the poisonous gas with some disgust. The smell made him choke and unable to smoke, but the effect was indeed very good.

"Keep an eye on their shooting holes and be careful when they bring that heavy machine gun over! Once you find something, fire on me immediately! No need to save bullets, just hit me hard."

"Aim the mortars at their mines. If the turrets can't be penetrated, make some big noise."

"The Second Company is preparing for earth excavation. Even if it's just for acting, they will also arrange for me to arrange the earth planes and earth tanks. Don't forget their phone lines. I'll take care of them if I have the chance."

The Japanese soldiers were so confused by the thick smoke that they doubted their life. There was no such thing as a gas mask in their blockhouse, and even if they used the peeing trick, it would not have much effect.

They hurriedly moved the heavy machine gun to the poisonous gas side, and fired first regardless of whether the light machine gun could hit it, but the soldiers of the independent regiment were already waiting for them.

Da da da···

There was enough light during the day, and the shooting holes on the turret were still obvious even from a distance of four hundred meters. With the focused care of the soldiers, a series of bullets hit near the shooting hole, even killing a machine gunner.

If it hadn't been for the squad leader's constant urging, the deputy shooter would not have been willing to step forward and take over the heavy machine gun.

Kong Jie, who was behind the bunker, held up his binoculars and stared at the turret opposite. He marked out any threatening fire points.

"There's a crooked gun on the third floor. It's very arrogant to keep firing. Hit me!"

The Japs in the artillery tower were extremely anxious at this time. The Eighth Route Army on the opposite side was really not fighting according to the routine. If this continued, everyone in the whole team would die.

The phone line was cut off by the enemy, and they seemed to be alone.

"Bullshit! Shoot! What are you afraid of!"

Another machine gunner next to him was injured by the Eighth Route Army's bullets, and the original ammunition gunner was unwilling to take over his position. He kicked the cowardly Japanese away and took hold of the handle of the Ninety-Two Style.

But he only finished two bullets and was scratched by a stray bullet. He quickly withdrew and ran to the observation tower himself to fire the signal flare.

boom!

The mortars brought by Kong Jie opened fire. It's only four hundred meters, and it's just for demining, so of course it's impossible to miss.

Mortars with low initial velocity, low projectile strength, and low penetration cannot cause structural damage to the Japanese gun towers. But the Japanese mines are a good thing. After being detonated, the noise is very loud, and even the gun towers are shaking.

Under the watchful eyes of the soldiers of the Independence Regiment, a red signal flare was launched crookedly into the air.

The Japanese squadron leader in the turret finally bowed his head to the fear of death. Even if he was slapped by the Lieutenant Colonel who came to help, it didn't matter to him!

After all, it is better to die than live.

Although he didn't see with his own eyes how embarrassed the Japanese in the blockhouse were, Kong Jie still found it very enjoyable.

So far in the attack, he had only three lightly wounded soldiers, and the enemy had been tortured to the point of asking for help. He was quite satisfied with this record.

But we can only go so far. The mission at this point is completed, and it's time to go to the next turret. If it is bitten by the enemy's reinforcements, it will be a big trouble.

Moreover, after fighting for almost half an hour, the consumption of the troops was a bit high. After all, only the strategic mission was successfully completed, but the turret was not really taken down.

If it's really a fight, it's not certain who will lose and who will gain.

"Report, our scouts found that the Japs in the county town have moved out. The vanguard is mainly cavalry, with almost a squadron."

"They are coming towards the artillery building along the road, and there is a squadron of infantry gathering behind them. It seems that the Japanese regard us as big fish."

A cavalry signalman reported the news.

Kong Jie looked at the sun above his head, and then ordered to the nearby soldiers:

"Everyone is ready to retreat! The Japanese army is coming!"

"Our mission is accomplished!"

"I ask everyone to move in twenty minutes."

Pushed to death, he sat up in shock in his illness
