"Order, the 2nd Independent Tank Battalion, in coordination with the 2nd Infantry Battalion, continue to attack!

We must tear apart this Tubal Road blockade in the shortest possible time!"

As soon as the order was issued, the Japanese who formed an independent 2nd Brigade immediately launched another attack.

Since the Eighth Route Army deployed a large number of anti-tank mines on the road, more than a dozen tanks and armored vehicles of the 2nd Independent Tank Battalion arrived near the minefield, turned a corner, crossed the adjacent aqueduct, and entered the roads on both sides of the road.

Bao rice ground.

Although cars cannot pass through Baomi, crawler-type tanks and armored vehicles can pass through without obstruction. On the contrary, because the soil in Baomi is soft, the wear of the tracks is greatly reduced.

It is worth mentioning that the Second Independent Regiment only deployed anti-tank mines and towed mines on the roads, but not anti-infantry mines.

The purpose is also very simple. Not only the devils walk on this road, but also the nearby people. If anti-infantry mines are deployed, the nearby people may be accidentally injured.

This problem will not occur with the deployment of anti-tank mines and towed mines.

Under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, the morale of the Japanese soldiers of the 2nd Battalion was significantly boosted. They followed the tanks and armored vehicles unscrupulously and approached the Eighth Route Army positions.

"Tu tu tu tu!"

"Da da da!--"

“Pah, pah, pah, pah!—”

A dense rain of bullets poured down, and the Japanese who were originally following the flanks of the tanks and armored vehicles immediately turned around and hid behind the tanks and armored vehicles.

Although some Japanese soldiers were unable to escape and were killed by stray bullets, the overall casualties were not large.

A large amount of other bullets hit the frontal armor of tanks and armored vehicles, making a clanging sound, and splashed up clusters of sparks. The offensive seemed fierce, but it did not cause much damage to the tanks or the Japanese armored soldiers in the cabin.

Even though many grenade grenades and mortar grenades fell down and exploded one after another, they failed to damage the tanks and armored vehicles, let alone break the tracks.

On the contrary, the Japanese's vehicle-mounted machine guns opened fire one after another, putting great pressure on the Second Independent Regiment.

The tanks' main guns fired one after another, and almost every shot fired would definitely blow away the soldiers of the Second Independent Regiment near the impact point, including their weapons and personnel.

Guarding the left side of the road is the Third Battalion of the Second Independent Regiment.

The third battalion commander, Chen Xi, saw that the Japanese had dispatched tanks and armored vehicles again and caused a lot of casualties to his own side. His face immediately darkened: "These little devils really don't care about eating but fighting. They really think we are not in the rice field."

If you deploy anti-tank mines, there will be nothing you can do against them!"

"Pass my order! The machine gunners provide fire cover. Remember not to stay in one place. Once you hit a shuttle, you must move your position immediately!"

"Also, bombardiers prepare Molotov cocktails, go up and kill these damn iron bastards!"

The order was conveyed, and the machine gun firepower of the third battalion increased instead of decreasing. A burst of gunfire rang out, and a large rain of bullets suddenly poured out, covering the oncoming Japanese.

At this time, the corn seedlings in the rice field were almost as tall as a person. Bullets rained down, and countless corn seedlings were immediately interrupted.

Although this would make the hard work of the nearby people for half a year in vain, the war is so cruel, and people will die at will, let alone destroy some crops.

Of course, neither the Eighth Route Army nor the Japanese would place the battlefield in a crop field unless they had no choice.

There is no other reason. Both the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese need to eat. If all the food is destroyed, even if they have money, they will have nowhere to buy it.

Although the intensive firepower of the Third Battalion did not cause many casualties to the Japanese, it still slowed down their advance a little.

There is no way around it, but the collaboration between Bu and Tan cannot be separated.

If it is disconnected, the infantry will not be able to get cover, which will make the advancement meaningless. Moreover, because the infantry cover is lost, the chance of the tank being destroyed by the demolition will also be greatly increased.

"Brothers, come on!"

Under the desperate cover of the machine gunners, dozens of demolition crews from the third battalion each held a few Molotov cocktails, then bent down and rushed towards the oncoming Japanese tank.

The dense rice in the ground became their best cover, so that when they rushed to a position less than 50 meters away from the Japanese tank, they were not discovered yet.

It's now!

When the demolitionists saw that the time was right, they immediately struck the match, then rounded their right arms and threw it forward.

Dozens of ignited Molotov cocktails immediately swayed and flew forward.

Although most of the Molotov cocktails fell on Baomi Di, there were still many Molotov cocktails that hit the Japanese tanks and fell to pieces with a 'snap' sound. The gasoline and alcohol inside flowed out instantly, and the flames also buzzed.

Buzzing and burning.

The surrounding Japanese soldiers were first startled by this sudden turn of events, and when they realized that the Eighth Route Army had thrown Molotov cocktails instead of grenades, they immediately showed mocking smiles on their faces.

They did not think that the Eighth Route Army could destroy the invincible tanks and armored vehicles of the Japanese Empire with just a few incendiary bottles.

However, soon, the smiles on the faces of these Japanese soldiers froze.

Because they were surprised to find that the flames from the Molotov cocktail actually penetrated into the tank cabin along the gaps between the sheet metal.

As a result, the temperature in the cabin soared sharply. Many Japanese tank soldiers couldn't bear it and got out directly. Some of their military uniforms were ignited. As soon as they got out, they rolled back and forth on the ground.

At the same time, the second and third rounds of attacks from the third battalion of demolitions came suddenly, and a large piece of Molotov cocktails fell down on their faces.

Some fell into the rice field, and some hit tanks and armored vehicles.

Seeing the flames scurrying around, the little devils nearby lost all their previous arrogance and fled in fear.

The fires on the tanks and armored vehicles became increasingly fierce, and they were soon burned to pieces.

Some Japanese armored soldiers who didn't have time to climb out were burned alive inside.

At this time, the Japanese infantrymen finally reacted from their panic, roared and launched an attack on the Eighth Route Army blasters ahead.

"Baga! Fire and kill these damn Tuballu!"

"Ta-ta-ta! Chu-chu-chu!"

“Pah, pah, pah, pah!—”

The dense bullets poured out, and the corn stalks that had been broken suddenly suffered another blow, and became shorter again.

However, there are no traces of the Eighth Route Army's blasters, and all that remains is the impotent rage of the Japanese.

Not only the third battalion, but the fourth battalion also adopted the same tactics, using hundreds of Molotov cocktails to easily neutralize the attacks of Japanese tanks and armored vehicles.

There is no way, it was all taught by a group leader.

It is worth mentioning that although these battalion commanders of the Second Independent Regiment have only been commanders for a short time, they have fought as many battles as the battalion commanders of other fraternal units, or even more.

Under the hard training of regiment leader Wang Chengzhu, they have all progressed into military talents who can take charge of their own affairs.

At this moment, a scout from the reconnaissance battalion came to the third battalion's position, found the third battalion commander Chen Xi, and reported to him: "Report! Camp Commander Chen, because this Japanese army was blocked by our army, the Japanese soldiers from Taiyuan were blocked again."

An additional support force has been dispatched, with a strength of at least one infantry regiment."

"In addition, there is a Japanese reinforcement force that has bypassed your blockade and is advancing towards the airport. It is currently exchanging fire with the 4th Independent Brigade.

The fifth and sixth battalions are on their way!"
