The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression Begins in Songhu

Chapter 100 He Says OK
After a moment of thought, a surviving soldier from the guard company was the first to raise his right hand.

He smiled bitterly and said, "So many brothers in the company have died. No matter how confident you are, Commander Hu, I am willing to follow you and give it a try.

If the attempt succeeds, I will avenge my brothers; if it fails, I will go on the journey with my brothers, so I won’t be alone when the time comes.”

The warrior's words served as a great example for the others. Soon, arms were raised high, and their masters shouted different sounds:

A second lieutenant with relatively fair skin said: "Before serving as a staff officer at the regimental headquarters, I served in combat units before. I can handle rifles and bayonets~"

A regimental clerk said: "We people from western Guangdong are not afraid of death. Most of the men have received military training and everyone can shoot a gun. Commander Hu, you are underestimating us."

Soon after, almost everyone present raised their hands.

Why do I say almost? It’s because Huang Sanxi was the only one present who didn’t raise his hand. He looked very strange and didn’t know what he was thinking about.

But in the end, he raised one hand, opened his mouth with his iconic yellow teeth, and shouted with all his might: "Count me in, and follow you to fight the devils~"

At this point, everyone in the temporary regiment headquarters, regardless of their identity or position, spontaneously raised their hands.

They all expressed their willingness to follow Hu Biao and his men to destroy the Japanese heavy artillery positions.

After some statistics, it was found that there were as many as 81 people, not counting Hu Biao and his group, who were willing to do this crazy thing that would result in their death.

Indeed, such a scene is very touching, and it makes people's blood rush to their heads, and they can't wait to take action.

But Chaozi suppressed the urge to immediately raise his hand and shout "Done!" and calmly gave a somewhat heartbreaking assessment:

"Not enough! In the dark, we might be able to get to the front of the heavy artillery position, but then we will be subject to stricter inspections, and it will be impossible to sneak in.

We can only charge forward, and this number of people is totally insufficient.

Not to mention being able to tear open the enemy's position and rush to the heavy artillery position behind."

Faced with Chaozi's heart-wrenching questions, Hu Biao was neither angry nor frustrated, but felt an indescribable calmness.

In such a calm state, he pointed outside the position and said his thoughts lightly:

"Get that Japs tank out, and drive it into the Japs' artillery position.

Black Star, I hope you didn't fool me back then and can actually drive that Russian armored vehicle; I think it's pretty much the same as a tank and can be driven just as well."

After hearing this, Black Star and the others suddenly realized how they had forgotten about this thing.

Specifically, when they were still under the command of the Sichuan Army, in the first battle to defend the Dunwu Temple position, they drove a Type 89 tank of the Japanese into a pit.

At first, I thought that this thing should not be broken, so I would pull it out and use it myself.

But the Japanese obviously thought of this point and had people watching them all the time. As soon as they had any ideas, they would attack them from a distance with heavy machine guns, leaving them no room to maneuver.

After killing the crew members who tried to escape at night one by one, Hu Biao and his men had no choice but to give up temporarily.

In the following time, as the fighting between the two sides became more and more intense, the tank was not directly hit by the crazy bombing of the Japanese, but the flying mud buried the tank shallowly.

They were so exhausted from the Japanese attack that they actually forgot about this thing.

As for the fact that he could drive a Russian armored vehicle, Black Star did not brag about it. He had spent a lot of money two years ago to go to the Russian military training camp in Siberia.

You know what! This Japanese tank might still be usable after being dug out; with this thing, it really increases the probability of rushing into the position.

But even with the bonus of this thing, the success rate is still very low.

Chaozi frowned and continued to ask the key questions; it was not that the young man was objecting, but some key issues that must be faced:
"Having a tank is naturally a good thing. But with only one, and time being tight, we haven't been able to practice infantry-tank coordination tactics from scratch.

Even the two Japanese squadrons of defenders were not equipped with anti-tank firepower such as the Type 92 infantry gun.

But what if they rush up with explosives and blow up the tank, or even just break the tracks?"

They had never thought that Hu Biao had even considered such a small issue, and thus came up with a tactic that stunned them:
"I never thought about using any traditional infantry-tank coordination tactics.

The traditional infantry-tank coordination tactic is that the infantry follows the tanks and both sides assist each other.

But the tactics I intend to use are much simpler. The infantry will protect the tanks at all costs and rush through the enemy infantry positions. In the process, it doesn't matter if everyone dies.
Then, the tanks rushed towards the artillery positions, either bombing them with the cannons on them or directly ramming them with the tanks.

Anyway, the main goal is to destroy the Japanese heavy artillery at all costs."

After explaining his plan, Hu Biao didn't wait for anyone to ask more questions before responding with another question: "That's basically what I'm thinking about. Do you have any other questions? If not, then make a decision."

Faced with such a question, the six Black Stars fell silent.

I have to admit that if I really follow Hu Biao's action plan and have a little better luck, there is a 30% chance of success.
In the current situation, a 30% chance of success is enough for them to give it a try.

In addition, they also want to complain:
Every time this grandson Hu Biao comes up with a plan, it is not only cruel to the Japanese, but even more cruel to his own people; he is simply the kind of person who gives birth to a son without a skin.

But it is understandable. Since they can't beat the Japanese in anything, what else can they do except to be more ruthless?

When everyone was about to make a decision, Hu Biao said, "I think our operation should still be successful this time."

"How do you say that?" AT asked in surprise.

Hu Biao pointed to the Buddha statue not far behind him, which he still hadn't figured out what it was, and gave a ridiculous explanation:

"I secretly asked this Bodhisattva if my plan was reliable. He said it was OK."

After hearing this, everyone turned around and looked over. Damn! The Buddha statue made a hand seal. This hand seal looked like an "OK" gesture.

Feeling at a loss whether to laugh or cry, Hei Xing was the first to raise one of his arms.

He said, "Of course I have to go. Otherwise, you, a jerk who can't even drive a tank, are holding a ridiculous Japanese artillery position and will be shot to pieces on the way."

Then everyone else raised their hands and started complaining.

Uncle Bo: "How can this tactic work without a reliable sniper?"

Chaozi: "How can I stay here and watch you die? Never mind, let's go together. It's a pity that even if we write the information, that mysterious place will find a way to prevent us from sending it out. Otherwise, we can leave some information before we leave."

AT: "Cough cough cough... I'm coughing to death. Destroy it... Death is the end..."

In this way, Hu Biao and his team officially finalized this operation.

A total of 88 people participated, plus a Type tank that should still be usable.

Hu Biao took advantage of the light from a flare in the distance, glanced at the watch on his wrist, and found that the time was already 10:13 in the evening.

Thinking about the Japanese heavy artillery position, every extra minute it existed.

I don’t know how many of our brothers died under the artillery shells with such a terrifying caliber, and then we were urged to take action impatiently.

In this busy situation, time passed quickly bit by bit, and the preparations before the official attack were completed one by one...
