Chapter 506 Calling for Engineers
"Then what do we do?"
The battalion commander of the Black Tiger Army asked anxiously.
"You wait here. The Japanese puppet army has already set up positions around us. It will be very difficult to capture the baggage train in a short time. In order to reduce casualties, you should wait for Zilong's reinforcements to arrive before taking action. You don't have to wait for us to come back!"
"understand!"
The Black Tiger Army battalion commander originally thought that he alone could wipe out the Japanese baggage train.
But Yuan Shuai's words forced him to stay where he was and wait for Zilong's reinforcements.
Yuan Shuai continued to rush forward with his men.
About two kilometers ahead is a stone arch bridge.
Under the bridge is a deep trench and a stream.
As long as this stone arch bridge is blown up, the Japanese tanks will not be able to pass through.
Even if the Japanese infantry wanted to come over, they would have to take a long detour.
When Yuan Shuai arrived here, he immediately untied the rope and hung it on the stone pier of the stone arch bridge, and arranged for people to climb down the rope to install the explosive pack.
After handling everything, Yuan Shuai pulled the fuse and evacuated quickly.
After retreating a long distance, Yuan Shuai quickly lay down.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the stone arch bridge was blown apart.
Looking at the broken stone arch bridge, Yuan Shuai was extremely happy.
However, when the Japanese supply team heard the noise, they felt something was wrong and quickly strengthened their defenses while contacting reinforcements to come quickly for support.
At this time, Zhao Zilong's 500 reinforcements had arrived at the Japanese baggage train.
And it was Zhao Zilong who led the team himself.
Hearing the explosion in front, Zhao Zilong guessed that Yuan Shuai must have succeeded, and immediately called on his troops to launch a fierce attack on the Japanese baggage train.
The Japs only had one squadron and a company of puppet troops.
The total number of people in the team is only about 400.
Zhao Zilong has more than 800 people here.
And there are a lot of mortars.
Seeing the baggage train, the artillerymen no longer felt sorry for their shells and started bombarding the Japanese and puppet troops indiscriminately.
The infantry advanced quickly under the cover of artillery shells and light and heavy machine guns.
In a short while, Zhao Zilong led his team to seize the Japanese baggage train.
It just so happened that Yuan Shuai had already rushed over with his men.
The group quickly drove back.
The two Japanese reinforcements behind arrived at the stone arch bridge and saw that it had been bombed. The tanks, 75 field guns and 105 howitzers could not pass through. The Japanese were so angry that they cursed and could only let the infantry take a detour.
At the same time, notify the engineers in Pingfeng City to come out quickly to build a bridge.
Yuan Shuai and others are on the way to retreat.
Tie Xiaogang was sitting in the back car. He learned through the radio that the Japanese had called for the engineers, so he quickly knocked on the door to stop the car.
"what's the situation!"
The marshal sitting in the passenger seat felt something was wrong and quickly got out of the car to ask.
"Boss, it's bad. We just overheard a message that the Japanese have called in engineers to repair the bridge!"
“Repair the bridge!”
Yuan Shuai frowned immediately.
If the bridge is repaired, the Japanese tanks, 75 field guns and 105 howitzers will definitely come over. At that time, the first target will definitely be his Black Tiger Village.
"Damn it, we already have plenty of shells, why don't we go back and blow them up!"
Hu Zi ran over quickly, and when he heard the news, he gritted his teeth and yelled.
"Why bomb them? They have tanks, 75mm field guns and 105mm howitzers. If they open fire in broad daylight, the 75mm field guns will be able to cover our artillery positions!"
Hu Dacai's words made Hu Zi's face turn red with embarrassment.
"Damn it! Why are there still 75mm field guns and 105mm howitzers? The Japanese are going to seek revenge on us!"
"Nonsense! We killed so many of their puppet troops and stole so much of their ammunition. If they don't seek revenge on us, who else can they seek revenge on?"
"What should we do? We can't let the devils repair the bridge!"
Hu Zi looked at Yuan Shuai with concern.
Yuan Shuai pondered.
"The stone arch bridge is more than ten meters long. The Japanese want to build a bridge that can accommodate tanks and 105mm howitzers. It will take more than a day or two to build it, and it's almost dark. You guys hurry up and transport the things to the Black Tiger Village. I'll take some people over to scout the situation!"
"Then be careful!"...
After leaving the convoy, Yuan Shuai led his men back to conduct reconnaissance.
From a distance, Yuan Shuai could see the Japanese soldiers on the bridge, as well as the tank troops, infantry, and artillery behind them. He broke out in a cold sweat.
"You damned little Japanese, you're really giving me face by showing up in so many numbers. Map!"
The monkey quickly opened the map.
Yuan Shuai pointed in the direction and said.
"The Japs will definitely send their infantry here first. Fatty, take your men to scout this way. Don't open fire when you encounter the Japs. Come back and report after you understand the situation!"
"understand!"
The fat man called Little Sweet Potato and left.
the other side.
The Shanqing League was completely wiped out, and the real baggage train was robbed, which made the Japanese in Zhenlongkou so angry that they gritted their teeth and yelled.
Because not only did they run out of shells, they also ran out of food and fodder.
According to statistics, their rations can last for three days at most.
If food is not delivered within three days, they will starve to death here.
But back in the Black Tiger Village, all the brothers there were extremely happy.
Because they not only killed the Shanqing League, but also captured the Japanese baggage train.
Although cars could not come from Zhenlongkou, they sent a lot of people to carry weapons, ammunition, food and various supplies using war horses and manual labor.
Looking at the things that were transported back, Zhao Dalei was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling for a long time.
"Ying'er, look at this, there are so many weapons, ammunition and food. Yuan Shuai is really a military genius! Didn't I ask you to be Yuan Shuai's bodyguard? Have you learned anything in the past few days?"
"What should I learn? If you don't take me with you to the war, who can I learn from?"
Ying'er bit her teeth and rolled her eyes in displeasure.
"By the way, Zilong, why hasn't Yuan Shuai come back yet?"
"Yuan Shuai has taken people to conduct reconnaissance. They should be back soon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Shuai ran back with his men.
"So fast!"
Zhao Zilong looked at Yuan Shuai in astonishment.
After all, Yuan Shuai and the others didn’t ride horses, they all ran.
However, when they got here, Yuan Shuai and his Black Wolf Army brothers were already exhausted.
"Take a break and drink some water!"
Zhao Dalei hurried over and shouted to Ying'er.
"Ying'er, bring the kettle!"
"I've finished mine!"
Ying'er had a kettle on her waist, but she quickly turned around and left.
Zhao Dalei had no choice but to take off the kettle from his waist, open it and hand it to Yuan Shuai.
Yuan Shuai took the kettle, took a sip, and handed it to others, saying.
"The Japanese infantry has begun to make a detour. If I'm not mistaken, they will definitely come to the arch bridge and guard this side to prevent us from destroying the arch bridge again! Therefore, we need troops to intercept them. In addition, we need two 75mm field guns. When the Japanese are repairing the bridge, we will bomb them to prevent them from repairing the bridge!"
