Chapter 1140, Prodigal Son…
Keep moving forward.
Saw a fort ahead.
There is a three-meter-high clay wall outside. Can''t see inside.
The clay walls are very thick. Some are judged to be over one meter. Ordinary bullets cannot penetrate.
This is a very good fortification!
Compacted clay is actually very tough.
If there are no cannons, it will be very difficult to win.
The most important thing is that this fort occupies a commanding height of several hundred meters in radius.
If you want to attack, you must attack from your head.
The defenders can counterattack from a high position. Easy to defend but difficult to attack.
??The Japanese invaders who built the fort must have been professionals.
Even if it is besieged, it cannot be captured quickly.
With the Japanese aggressor''s marksmanship, attacking from one''s back would be a sure way to die. No matter how many people go up, there won''t be enough to fill it.
Hide forward.
Silently count points.
The map shows a total of forty-seven red dots.
All red dots are already fully armed. Some carried rifles, others machine guns.
The red dots are distributed in different locations, obviously ready for battle.
Behind the gate of the fort, there are scattered weapons signs. Checked it out and found it was a mine.
Awesome. There are landmines!
??If you rush in rashly, wouldn’t it be...
With a bang, a group of people disappeared. The power of landmines is no joke.
Wrown secretly.
Is this an attack on the Japanese invaders'' lair?
Send so many people here? Have you prepared so many weapons?
What are they going to do?
Are you going to end it personally and provoke internal strife in the Northeast Army?
Mad…
??It''s really a long time to see you.
So many Japanese invaders!
So many weapons!
Now he still looks like he is stubbornly resisting!
"Notice."
“There were forty-seven Japanese invaders inside.”
“They all have guns.”
“There are mines behind the fort gate.”
“Attention.”
Zhang Yong briefly reported the situation.
Everyone around was secretly surprised. I didn’t expect there were so many Japanese invaders!
More than forty!
They all have guns!
??There are also strong fortifications!
I really can’t figure it out. How did so many Japanese invaders hide in?
Zhang Yong knew it well.
??The Japanese invaders looked similar to Chinese people, so they could come disguised as Chinese people.
Getting a business traveler status is quite easy.
The checkpoints in various places are, to put it bluntly, just for profiteering. As long as you stuff a few bills, you can get through even with a gun.
“Who knows who the owner of that fort is?”
“It seems to belong to Boss Lu...”
“That Boss Lu?”
“Lu Dapeng.”
“What business do you do?”
“A businessman. Doing a little bit of all kinds of business.”
“Is there any more?”
“It is said that there is also a tomb robbing business behind the scenes. However, there is no evidence.”
“Tomb robbing?”
Zhang Yong immediately thought of the Huai Agency.
??Does this Lu Dapeng have anything to do with the Sophora Agency? Maybe there really is.
It should be noted that the Guanzhong area has the largest number of cultural relics. You can dig it up anywhere. It is impossible for Huai Agency to give up such a treasured Feng Shui land.
The cultural relics previously seized and unearthed were mainly artifacts obtained from tomb robberies.
After preliminary identification, a considerable part of them came from Guanzhong.
In other words, the Sophora Registry in Guanzhong is definitely staffed. It just depends on where it is hidden.
??It would be great if it was hidden in the fort in front.
It is definitely killing two birds with one stone, rich in oil and water.
Killing dozens of spies is a trivial matter, the key is to seize their belongings.
no way. Too short of money.
Two divisions, the cost of more than 10,000 people!
It’s really not a joke…
We can only plunder them from the spies.
No matter how hard you suffer, you cannot hurt yourself. The only ones are the KuRi bandits. Anyway, the Japanese invaders can endure it.
Because they are very patient, they are called ninjas.
“You make your own arrangements.”
"yes."
After reporting the situation, Zhang Yong started to work as the hands-off shopkeeper.
He really doesn’t understand professional matters like fighting. Just don''t intervene rashly.
Otherwise, he will be the second Chiang Kai-shek. Like micromanaging.
Know yourself and your enemy, he has already done that. Whether you can win every battle depends on others.
If the combat effectiveness is still insufficient under such circumstances, there is nothing we can do.
?Tang Jianzhou personally carried out combat deployment.
The artillerymen brought all six mortars up and found a place to set them up.
It is impossible to deal with this kind of fortress without mortars. You have to bomb and then make plans.
Suddenly the system prompted a message.
Zhang Yong checked the pocket space and found two more sights.
Take it out. I found that it is matched with the horse four-ring rifle. So he handed it to He Yingping. The cavalry company needs this.
"Thanks!"
"Thanks!"
?He Yingping was immediately overjoyed.
This is a scope! Very rare! Especially the one equipped with a horse four-ring rifle.
?After the Ma Sihuan rifle is equipped with a scope, it can accurately shoot targets 400 meters away. It is still very useful for the sharpshooters of the cavalry company.
【Favorability 100+】
【Favorability 100+】
The favorability of the soldiers of the cavalry company has increased a little.
Most people are already over 100. This value means that they are very friendly.
??If Zhang Yong is in danger, most of the soldiers in the cavalry company will risk their lives to cover him.
Looking around silently.
Found that the favorability of all soldiers is above 80.
It can be said to be 100% safe.
Something suddenly occurred to me. Can favorability be used to distinguish traitors?
If he is a traitor, his favorability cannot be improved. If the favorability is always low, it is very likely that he is a traitor.
Even if he is not a traitor, he is Zhang Yong’s enemy. Take Comrade Jianfeng for example.
Thinking…
The system will prompt you with information. But the radius of the monitoring map has increased. increased to 1000 meters.
Eh?
Suddenly I realized something was wrong.
Why did it increase so much? Wasn’t it 50, 50 plus before?
Why did it suddenly increase by two to three hundred? Directly increased to 1000 meters? Is it possible to encounter any danger?
?While I was wondering, a large number of white dots appeared on the edge of the map.
All have weapons. The speed is quite fast.
Like a cavalry?
Hold up the telescope. The military indeed. But I didn''t see clearly who it was.
The other party quickly came into contact with the soldiers of the 112th Division who were on guard outside. The procession stopped. Then, an officer hurried over.
“Report to the Commissioner! Commander Yu of the 51st Army seeks an audience.”
“Commander Yu?”
"Yes."
“Invite him in.”
Zhang Yong was a little surprised.
It’s actually Yu Wanzhong, commander of the 51st Army?
What is he doing at this time?
Come to see yourself?
Definitely not.
How could he come here to see himself?
Mostly because of other things.
)
)
The sound of heavy horse hooves was heard.
After a while, a group of cavalry came to Zhang Yong.
The leader is Yu Wanzhong, commander of the 51st Army. He is also a decent old soldier with a serious expression.
“Commander Yu…”
“I’m here to visit Boss Lu.”
“Commander Yu knows Boss Lu.”
"Yes."
"oh?"
Zhang Yong understood.
?Yu Wanzhong came to intercede with Boss Lu.
He thought Boss Lu was besieged because he offended Zhang Yong.
In this case…
Let’s get straight to the point!
“Commander Yu, this Boss Lu is a Japanese spy.”
"What?"
“There is a radio station in his fort and a large number of weapons.”
"real?"
"Commander Yu, since you are familiar with him, please invite him to come out. I will ask him a few words. I promise not to slander him."
"good."
Yu Wanzhong is a cheerful person. Immediately arrange for the adjutant to go to negotiate.
?His adjutant also knows Boss Lu. So he rode forward. Walk towards the gate of the fort. At the same time, he raised his hand to signal inside the bunker.
result…
Bang!
A gunshot was fired.
The adjutant''s body slowly fell from the horse.
"Son of a bitch!"
Yu Wanzhong''s expression suddenly changed.
At this moment, everyone understands. Boss Lu is a Japanese invader.
It has been broken and can no longer hide itself. So he shot and killed Commander Yu''s adjutant.
The angry Commander Yu began to disband the armed forces. Take out your gun.
He will go into battle himself.
Zhang Yong hurriedly stopped him.
?At this moment, anyone who goes up there will be dead.
The marksmanship of the Japanese aggressors cannot be guaranteed. To come forward is to die. It''s not worth dying in vain.
“Commander Yu, calm down!”
“I’m going to chop this **** up alive!”
“Commander Yu, calm down!”
Zhang Yong grabbed the opponent tightly. Fortunately, I am strong. Otherwise, these old guys from the Northeast Army are all in good physical condition.
“Huh?”
Yu Wanzhong realized something was wrong.
Zhang Yong seems to have great strength. He is not a weak scholar.
?Although it looks polite...
Zhang Yong raised his fist. Just punch the clay wall next to it. The clay wall more than ten centimeters thick collapsed immediately.
"you…"
“Commander Yu, these are all trained by catching Japanese spies.”
"I…"
Yu Wanzhong finally calmed down.
Zhang Yong retracted his fist. Waved. Shake off the dirt on top.
Pretentiousness is indeed pretentious. It just hurts so much in my fist. I won''t do such stupid things next time.
“Spies are very good at disguise.”
"What?"
"I said that Japanese spies are very hidden. Even in Jinling, many people were deceived."
"I…"
“There are many spies hiding around Dean Wang.”
"Son of a bitch!"
Yu Wanzhong angrily retracted the idea of ??going into battle in person.
However, let the Japanese invaders go. He will never give up. The other party actually lied to him! How can you accept it?
“Commissioner, do you want me to mobilize troops to help?”
“Not used for the time being.”
"If I catch the Japanese invaders, I will chop them into pieces myself."
"certainly!"
Zhang Yong nodded. Then waved his hand.
Let the attack begin. Almost ready. Let the Japanese invaders see how powerful we are!
??The Japanese regular army may not be able to defeat them. But the hidden spy can definitely be dealt with!
"put!"
“Bang!”
"put!"
“Bang!”
Mortars began to fire,
Cannonballs fell one after another toward the inside of the fort.
“Boom…”
“Boom…”
The sound of explosions kept coming.
But the view was blocked by the wall and the specific scene of the explosion could not be seen.
?Tang Jianzhou raised the telescope and saw nothing.
Commander Yu raised his telescope, but could not see anything.
You can only do it in a hurry.
On the contrary, the artillerymen were firing.
“Bang!”
“Boom…”
“Bang!”
“Boom…”
As the shells continued to explode, a large amount of dust was finally seen rising.
Chaotic sounds came. A building must have been blown down. The adobe walls inside are definitely not that thick and will collapse after repeated bombings.
Honestly, they are all 60mm mortars. The power is very average.
??If it is a reinforced concrete fortification, it is useless at all.
?However, this kind of inland fortress does not have reinforced concrete or anything like that. There are even few stones. Most are large adobe bricks made of clay. If it doesn''t collapse once, it won''t be able to withstand it after a few more explosions. People hiding in them are also vulnerable to harm.
In fact, the purpose of mortars is to kill people.
“Boom…”
“Boom…”
Sure enough, the continuous artillery bombardment was quite effective in killing people.
After a while, the map showed that there were only more than thirty red dots.
In other words, more than ten Japanese invaders have been killed.
very good. Just continue to explode.
First blow up most of the Japanese invaders to death. The rest will be dealt with slowly.
The premise is that there are enough cannonballs.
certainly…
There is no problem with the shells!
Release the shell silently.
The adobe house right next to it.
Then arrange for people to move inside and move out. Pile up to the side of the artillery.
A total of thirty boxes of artillery shells were brought. 6 rounds per box. 180 rounds in total.
“Boom…”
“Boom…”
Continue bombing.
The number of red dots continues to decrease.
thirty…
Twenty-five…
twenty…
In the end, more than half of the Japanese invaders were killed.
Sure enough, the most effective way to deal with this kind of fort is mortars!
Unless hiding in the basement. Otherwise, it will explode sooner or later. Theoretically, as long as there are enough shells, everyone on the ground will die.
“Boom…”
“Boom…”
Continue to explode.
Yu Wanzhong was about to speak but stopped.
Looked at Zhang Yong. Want to say something. Didn''t say anything.
Zhang Yong pretended not to see it.
He knew that Yu Wanzhong thought he was too wasteful.
To deal with a small fort and dozens of Japanese invaders, so many artillery shells were wasted!
Six mortars. Constant bombing. More than a hundred rounds were fired. There are no signs of stopping yet. Still continuing to build. What a prodigal!
With this level of artillery bombardment, we can send people to break through. Cannonballs are precious!
However, Zhang Yong does not agree with hard charging.
Before the Japanese aggressors'' effective strength was seriously weakened, rushing forward would mean death.
There are mines behind the fort gate. It is destined to be mined. The process of demining is the process of being shot. Many people who go up there are destined to die.
Carrying a ladder? Climb the wall?
?As long as you show up, you will be killed.
Don’t ever doubt the marksmanship of the Japanese invaders. Definitely one shot at a time.
All Japanese invaders on the ground must be killed.
Or maybe driving them into the basement to hide.
?Only in this way can we break in safely.
eighteen…
fifteen…
Finally, there were no more Japanese invaders on the ground.
Switch to 3D map. I was sure that all the remaining Japanese invaders had gone into the cellar.
“Stop the shelling!”
“Stop the shelling!”
"superior!"
Zhang Yong issued the order.
The infantry, which had been prepared for a long time, immediately stepped forward.
The Gate of the Barrier Gate Take a human ladder. Attack in several ways.
“Bang…”
The fort gate was knocked open.
Some soldiers tried to rush forward. Got caught.
There are landmines inside!
You bastard! Forgot what was explained above?
Bringing in pieces of mud bricks. The two of them worked together to lift it up, and then threw it forward with all their strength.
“Boom…”
Suddenly, a deafening explosion sounded.
But the mine was detonated.
Good guy, it is really powerful. Blow up a big piece.
Zhang Yong came up from behind.
He needs to personally guide and clear mines. Otherwise, it will waste too much time.
Where the mines are located. How many more. The surveillance maps are all clear. Just prescribe the right medicine.
“Over there.”
“Over there.”
Continuous pointing.
Others were responsible for throwing mud bricks to detonate them.
“Boom…”
“Boom…”
The deafening sound continued.
By this time, the soldiers who climbed over the wall had already landed. In a short time, hundreds of people came in.
search.
No Japanese invaders were found.
The ground is already in ruins. There were no living creatures at all.
Even the complete bodies of the Japanese invaders were not found. They were all bombarded repeatedly by artillery shells, and every one of them was in pieces.
Where he landed, there were stumps of limbs and arms everywhere. Weapons were thrown everywhere.
“Boom…”
Finally, the landmines here have been cleared.
Zhang Yong walked up directly.
Yu Wanzhong tried to pull him back, but failed.
A heart can''t help but stick to my throat.
?Over there, Tang Jianzhou climbed up the ladder and was also very worried. I''m afraid there are still remaining mines.
result…
Zhang Yong came in unscathed.
The soldiers behind then filed in. They all rushed into the fort.
There were no mine explosions.
?Tang Jianzhou:…
Yu Wanzhong:…
??This Commissioner is really a tough guy!
Dare to be the first to enter the minefield!
It’s okay if you don’t accept it!
Zhang Yong looked around.
wave. Take someone to find the cellar.
The remaining Japanese invaders are all inside. All the money is in it too.
Catch a turtle in an urn.
Catch them all in one go.
