Volume 1 Chapter 98 Incendiary Bomb
Wang Gensheng and Wang Hu came to the right side of the Japanese tank squad with simple incendiary bombs.
Wang Hu turned his head and saw the Japanese Iron Turtle was about to kill him.
He lit the rag with a match and handed the bottle to Wang Gensheng.
Wang Gensheng squatted behind the wall, looking through the bullet holes and watching the iron turtle outside approaching.
Seeing that the Iron Turtle was about to approach, the Japanese soldiers who were cooperating in the battle were also about to rush up!
Wang Gensheng stood up, aimed at the target, and threw the burning bottle at the front tank with all his strength.
The sudden appearance of a fire attracted the attention of the Japanese, and many people looked up at the fire.
Before many Japanese soldiers could see clearly what the fire was, the fire fell.
The burning bottle drew an arc and hit the rear of the tank.
bump!
The bottle broke and the gasoline inside immediately spilled onto the air intake of the engine at the rear of the tank.
The gasoline caught fire when it met the flame of the rag.
The Japanese tanks were famous for being small cars with very thin skin.
After burning for less than 2 seconds, the already scorching hot tank engine overheated and exploded, splashing out the full tank of fuel.
The diesel of this era is not refined like that of later generations, and it still contains a lot of impurities.
Not to mention that the temperature inside the tank was very high at this time.
With a loud bang!
The tank exploded, and then three Japanese soldiers covered in flames climbed out of the tank, screaming and rolling on the ground, trying to put out the flames on themselves.
But the fire in them is not so easy to extinguish.
In less than 3 seconds they were burned to death by the fire and quickly turned into charcoal.
In addition to the Japanese soldiers in the tank, two Japanese soldiers hiding behind the tank were also drenched by gasoline, which ignited their soaked cotton coats and soon burned them to death.
At first, no one paid any attention to the flaming bottle, but when the bottle fell, it actually detonated a tank.
Wang Gensheng shouted excitedly. "Hit it! Hit it! This incendiary bomb is really useful. Quick, give me the incendiary bomb. I want to destroy this damn iron turtle!"
What!
I saw the Eighth Route Army use a strange incendiary weapon to burn down a tank.
Lieutenant Colonel Hiroshi Ageo is going crazy!
Since the start of the expedition, his tank team has always been invincible and victorious in China.
No matter how strong the Chinese National Army's defense line was, it would collapse in front of planes and tanks.
It was actually blown up by a local guerrilla army today!
This made Hiroshi Ueo very angry.
Wang Hu used a match to light another bottle of fuel bomb, and Wang Gensheng stood up holding the incendiary bomb.
He took aim at a turtle and threw the bottle at it with all his might.
Seeing the terrible fire appear again, Hiroshi Kamio gasped.
He shouted in a shrill voice. "Quick! Shoot that fire down!"
When the Japanese heard the order, they quickly raised their guns and fired at the incendiary bombs in the sky.
Bullets flew over like water, and the incendiary bombs exploded directly in the air.
Gasoline spilled!
A fire started on the ground.
Seeing that it still missed the target, the Japanese directly knocked the Molotov cocktail down in the air.
damn it!
Wang Gensheng clapped his hands in regret and shouted urgently, "Give me the Molotov cocktail. Quick!"
When Wang Gensheng was about to reach for the Molotov cocktail, Wang Hu, who had been observing the battlefield, pulled him back.
Just as Wang Gensheng was pulled back, bullets came flying at him like water.
It hit the wall in front of Wang Gensheng with a bang.
Right behind them, bullets were coming at them, especially from the machine guns on the tanks, which were almost making holes in the earth wall.
Not to mention throwing incendiary bombs, it’s even difficult to get out.
These damn Chinese actually destroyed a precious tank of the Great Japanese Empire.
Dead!
Dead!
A tank was destroyed, which stimulated the devils to go crazy.
I swear to kill all the enemies who just attacked with unknown weapons!
The Japanese soldiers who were fighting in coordination with tanks and infantry also rushed up at this time. They shot at where Wang Hu and Wang Gensheng were hiding from a distance.
The last tank also turned its gun and fired at where Wang Hu and Wang Gensheng were hiding.
boom!
A shell penetrated the wall directly and exploded 40 meters in front of Wang Gensheng.
Wang Gensheng and Wang Hu lay in the corner, protecting the Molotov cocktails with their bodies, fearing that the dirt and sand raised by the bomb would break them.
After getting up from the ground, Wang Gensheng and Wang Hu were about to continue moving their position and look for an opportunity to destroy the remaining two tanks.
But the shells were raining down like raindrops, and even being able to survive the next minute was a luxury, let alone evacuating.
Bang, bang, bang…
Boom boom boom…
The artillery bombardment was getting closer and closer, and bullets hit the earth wall, sending broken soil flying everywhere.
Wang Gensheng and Wang Hu held the last three incendiary bombs in their arms and tried their best to shrink their bodies.
Li Yunlong's hair turned white with worry over how to destroy the Japanese's Iron Turtle. Just as he was racking his brains to think about how to destroy the Japanese's Iron Turtle.
He saw a flash of fire through the telescope, and then the Japanese iron turtle caught fire and exploded.
Li Yunlong immediately shouted excitedly, "Well done!"
Li Yunlong was very excited to see that the method Chu Yunfei said was really useful.
Just when Li Yunlong was filled with joy, he saw Wang Gensheng and Wang Hu being suppressed by Japanese firepower behind a wall and in danger of being destroyed at any time.
Li Yunlong shouted immediately. "Hurry up and cover the fire! Zhang Dabiao, organize people to cover them and destroy the enemy's iron turtle!"
"Yes, Commander!" Zhang Dabiao shouted. "First Company, follow me!"
In the past, the soldiers of the independent regiment might not be able to destroy a Japanese tank even if they rushed forward with bundled grenades.
Just blow off the tracks of the Japanese tanks to stop their advance.
As long as the Japs repair the tracks, they can continue to inflict casualties on the Eighth Route Army.
Now seeing that the new weapon is so powerful, it killed an Iron Turtle in one go.
Not to mention a company, even if a battalion is wiped out, we must kill the Japanese iron turtle.
The soldiers of the independent regiment did not care about the danger. They raised their heads from the wall and fired at the Japs with their guns.
Zhang Dabiao led a company of soldiers out of the wall and rushed forward to rescue Wang Gensheng and Wang Hu.
Bang, bang, bang…
Nearly 1,000 other soldiers of the independent regiment opened fire one after another to cover the first company.
There are more than 1,000 rifles of varying quality, including the Type 38 rifle, the Type 39 rifle, and even the Hanyang rifle, which has an old sleeve with the rifling worn out.
There is no accuracy at all.
Many bullets flew to unknown places.
The Japanese at this time were not the same as those at the end of World War II. They were well-trained, and when they were new recruits, they needed to shoot more than 1,000 bullets a month.
He is an excellent archer and well-trained.
The Japanese soldiers quickly occupied the ruins at the street corner, and some of them hid behind tanks.
Light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers were also quickly set up to launch counter-fire.
The Japs' shooting skills are very accurate.
More than 20 soldiers of the independent regiment were killed in one go.
The Japanese grenade launcher set up the grenade launcher and fired the shells.
The shell drew an arc, and two soldiers of the independent regiment were killed before they had time to dodge.
Three soldiers had their feet cut off by shrapnel and lay on the ground groaning in pain.
In the fierce battle with the Japanese army, the independent regiment suffered heavy casualties.
Li Yunlong felt heartbroken.
But he had no time to be sad at this moment.
We must attract the enemy's attention and protect Zhang Hu and Wang Gensheng.
The Japanese machine gun swept past them, and the soldiers of the independent regiment gritted their teeth and did not dodge, but shot at the Japanese desperately.
Zhang Dabiao, holding a Type 99 rifle, brought a company of soldiers to Wang Gensheng and Wang Hu.
He shouted. "Anything?"
Wang Gensheng saw Zhang Dabiao and shouted urgently, "Captain, I'm fine!"
Zhang Dabiao and Wang Gensheng stuck their heads out and saw that the tank had gone far away, more than 80 meters away.
Such a distance.
Even if Wang Gensheng had a pair of iron arms, he couldn't throw it over.
We must shorten the distance, Zhang Dabiao shouted through gritted teeth. "First company, follow me!"
