War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 85: All Powder Kegs (Thanks to 'Shangshangqian5480' for the 500 reward!)
After bowing to Daisen, Terauchi Murakami decisively turned around and went back to the station. The layout of the station was very simple, with just a table, a map and a telephone.

He returned to the house and stood beside the map on the table. He looked at the red circled area on the map again and again before he slowly smiled.

Terauchi Murakazu is one of the ancient nobles of Japan. According to the title of nobility, his father should be an earl, and he is the best among the new generation of nobles who entered the Northeast this time. Otherwise, he would not be able to bear the title of "the first of the new nobles".

Of course, this leader of the new nobles refers only to this group of aristocrats.

"Sir!"

When an orderly responsible for observing the battlefield rushed into the squadron headquarters command room, he bowed to Terauchimura and said, "Major!"

"The enemy's position has been exposed, but they are very cunning and did not attack us when we launched a pincer attack on Yang's troops..."

"Instead, he attacked me from a long distance from a high point behind the mountain."

Terauchi Muraichi was not panicked at all. He looked at the map and responded in a very stylish manner: "This is thanks to the Type 38 rifles that Miyamoto gave them." Then, his smile became increasingly gloomy.

"And they have artillery, heavy artillery!"

Terauchimura nodded: "I heard that our team ambushing in the woods has been bombarded." Without even asking about the casualties, he said: "Order the Yamazaki team to come out of the woods and engage in a firefight with these people at the foot of the mountain..."

"Sir!" the soldier asked doubtfully, "They are on the top of the mountain, and we are at the bottom. If we charge uphill like this, I'm afraid there will be too many casualties."

Terauchi Murakazu was very calm. When his subordinates questioned him, he did not get angry. He said calmly: "Otherwise, why would I place one of the machine gun groups on the top of the mountain next to them? Order the machine gun group to fire at the top of the mountain where the enemy is located to cover the Yamazaki squad and fight with them. As long as my pincer attack destroys Yang's troops, they will all die in the mountains!"

"Yes!"

……

Da da da da da da!

Ta-ta-ta-ta!

At the foot of the mountain, Xu Chaoyang was moving forward in the team with a grenade launcher on his back. On the top of the mountain, two machine guns were firing frequently at the position where they were just now. At the same time, there were many sounds of rifle fire. It seemed that the machine gun group had already set up a defense line on the high mountainside, fearing a sneak attack.

"Brother, the devils reacted too quickly!"

When Qu Yong heard a cannon shot from the top of the hill, he encountered the Japanese machine gun coverage. He hurriedly said this, and his frown never relaxed.

But Chang Zhan behind him was not afraid at all. Three pheasant necks exploded with continuous sounds like popping beans in the valley, and opened fire at the source of the opponent's machine gun fire. The machine guns of both sides took turns to fight, and the fight was difficult to resolve for a while. The valley was filled with the sound of gunfire.

Xu Chaoyang turned a deaf ear to this and shouted, "Stop!" when he was more than a hundred meters away from the top of the mountain.

Then, he squatted down in a patch of weeds that were dense enough to reach his chest.

That's what he said, those who often fight might suffer, because as soon as the gunshots are heard, the machine gun groups that the Japanese had already deployed on the commanding heights would definitely target those who often fight and have sufficient firepower.

Xu Chaoyang didn't have time to care about others. He quickly took off the grenade launcher on his back, put it down, and started taking out the shells from his arms.

This time he did not feel sorry for the ammunition. He placed five shells next to the grenade launcher, stacked them in a row, and then began to turn the knob at the back of the grenade launcher.

This is used to adjust the barrel of the grenade launcher. If the target to be blown up is relatively close, then after turning the knob, a plug in the barrel will be slowly pushed forward to shorten the barrel and fire the shell; if the target to be blown up is relatively far, the knob of the grenade launcher will be turned to retract the plug, deepen the barrel distance, and allow the shell to fully extend in the barrel.

After adjusting all this, Xu Chaoyang picked up the shell and wiped it with his pants to make sure there was no sand or dust on it. Then he held the shell in one hand and raised his thumb towards the top of the mountain with the other hand. After the distance measurement was completed, he fine-tuned the grenade launcher again. When everything was ready...

Xu Chaoyang threw the shell directly into the grenade launcher—boom! The moment he turned his head, a muffled sound came from the grenade launcher.

boom!
The shell landed just one step away from the top of the mountain, and the explosion directly extinguished the firing machine gun.

"Liu Gener!"

"OK!"

"Machine gun cover!!!"

While Xu Chaoyang was shouting at the top of his lungs, he quickly picked up another shell from the ground, repeated the same procedure, and inserted it into the barrel again - boom!

Da da da da da!
Liu Gener rushed to the top of the hill with the Czech rifle and pulled the trigger. He didn't care whether he hit anyone or not. With his strength, he just had to make sure the muzzle of the machine gun was pointing at the top of the mountain and firing bullets as the machine gun shook, so as to prevent the group of one and a half meters tall from firing back.

boom! ! !
The second shell exploded, rushed into the sky, and fell in an inverted U-shaped arc, hitting the machine gun position head-on.

A shell fell, and a violent explosion quickly broke out in the position surrounded by sacks. The Japanese soldiers lying in the position had no time to react. While they were still hiding their heads from the dust from the first explosion, a thigh was blown into the sky, and then blood, flesh and dust continued to splash into the sky.

But Xu Chaoyang did not stop after firing these two shots. Instead, he fired the remaining three shots, causing the cave to completely stop sounding. He then took out the base cap from Xianggua's hand and installed it.

The grenade was obviously not as accurate as the standard artillery shells. After being thrown out by the grenade launcher, it didn't even hit the edge of the machine gun position and fell near the top of the mountain. But it didn't matter. The cantaloupe grenade was originally a contact-fired one. It exploded completely the moment it hit the mountain, causing stone and wood chips to fly all over the forest!
"Enjoyed!"

"It's so fucking exciting!"

Qu Yong grinned wickedly in the bushes, watching the smoke and dust bursting out from the top of the mountain. His mouth was almost grinning to his ears, but he even had time to chat with Xu Minghao: "Mouse, we have to carry this thing wherever we go in the future. With it, we feel at ease!"

boom!
When the last explosion sounded, Xu Chaoyang reached out from the side and said, "Give me the number one spot!"

Liu Gener quickly handed over the Czech-style rifle that had just been loaded with bullets and the magazine inserted back in, and after picking up the Type 38 rifle that Xu Chaoyang handed over, the four of them rushed along the low hill where smoke was constantly rising.

……

Pooh!
"Grandma's!"

Chang Zhan was stunned. He clenched his fists with his empty hands and spitted out as he looked at the opposite hill.

He had originally spread out his palm, but after an explosion occurred on the opposite hill, he retracted one finger, and then he retracted ten fingers in a row. That is to say, the machine gun group on the low hill and the rifle squad guarding them were hit by artillery fire ten times!
The most important thing is that every shot of this thing hit the mountain. No matter how many entered the machine gun position, the machine gun on the opposite side never fired again after a shell entered.

Chang Zhan looked as if he had a mouth full of dirt, spitting non-stop, and then turned around and asked, "Little white-faced boy, your company commander was an artilleryman?"

Tong Meng, who was squatting in front of an oil drum not far away, responded: "You ask anything, I'll fight you!"

He finally found a chance to vent his anger about the word "pretty boy".

Chang Zhan was so stunned by his words that he couldn't even open his mouth. He then muttered, "Why does Xu Chaoyang have such a bad temper? Why do the soldiers he leads also have such bad tempers?"

"If he were really given a company and made the company commander, wouldn't he be a company of gunpowder barrels?"
