While the Japanese army was digging trenches, they were also keeping a close eye on the movements of the train station. According to their thinking, mortar shells should be coming at this moment, but there was no shelling from the train station. Could it be that these people had given up?

"What's going on? The troops before us are a well-tested force. They've fought against the Rakshasa people on the northern battlefield. They shouldn't be completely unresponsive to our attack methods."

Major General Okawa muttered to himself, the wrinkles on his face could kill a fly. He really had no idea what the team in front of him was going to do. Before he knew what the other party would do, that was the time when he felt the most nervous.

"Could it be that they ran out of ammunition in the battle just now?"

The chief of staff of the 19th Brigade thought for a while and said, there is no other explanation except this. When the shells fell just now, both sides fought very fiercely. Our artillerymen threw shells at them, but their artillerymen threw shells even more fiercely than ours.

"You're underestimating the 72nd Army. Whether on the battlefield or elsewhere, their logistics are exceptional. You can say they're facing difficulties elsewhere, but you can never say they have a logistical problem."

Major General Okawa had studied the 72nd Army for a long time and knew what its greatest advantage was. The entire army was essentially mechanized. Even if they were out of ammunition, with the entire urban area of ​​Jincheng at their backs, wouldn't the speed of transporting ammunition by car be fast enough?

Just as these Japanese were wondering, several lines of jeeps drove out from the roads on both sides of the train station, speeding to the extreme.

"Stop them, don't let them get over here, machine gun, machine gun."

When Major General Okawa was stunned, he saw three or four rows of jeeps coming out. Although he didn't know what these jeeps were for, it was obvious that they were heading towards our trenches.

Without any order from Major General Okawa, the other machine gunners had already opened fire.

"General, be careful..."

On the front line, the Japanese military had a total of eleven Type 92 heavy machine guns and twenty-two Type 92 light machine guns.

If they fired together, the power was still very strong, but they were then beaten back.

A total of more than 40 jeeps came out, each equipped with a heavy machine gun, and all of them were fired with 250 rounds of ammunition. Some were 12.7mm heavy machine guns, and some were German general-purpose machine guns.

A 7.92mm light machine gun was installed in the co-pilot's seat. Some jeeps that did not have machine guns were equipped with submachine guns. In total, each jeep had two or three firing points, which instantly suppressed the machine gun on Major General Okawa's side.

The Japanese soldiers were feeling frustrated. There were so many machine guns deployed at the front line, but there was no way to block the enemy's advance. The enemy's machine gun positions were constantly moving, especially the large amount of dust raised by the jeeps, so you couldn't see the position of the vehicles behind you at all.

But the Japanese army's machine guns were different. They were deployed in fixed positions. Even if people couldn't see clearly, did machine gun fire need to be very accurate? A general direction was enough.

Therefore, the Japanese soldiers suffered heavy casualties on their side when they failed to stop the enemy. Many soldiers from Japan looked down on the 72nd Army. Now they have realized that even if they exerted their strongest attack power, they are still no match for the enemy. Instead, they were beaten so hard that they dared not even look up.

"Throw a grenade."

Major General Okawa heard the sound of cars getting closer outside the trench, and immediately gave orders to his men. These men quickly took out cantaloupe grenades from their waists, pulled the rings, knocked them on their hats, and threw them out.

These grenades did cause trouble for our brothers, but except for a few jeeps that were lost, the rest of the jeeps arrived at the trenches. Behind the jeeps were rows of gasoline barrels, all weighing 30 kilograms each. The lids were open, and the doors on both sides were also opened, and they were thrown directly into the trenches.

"Yes, it's gasoline..."

"Run."

When the Japanese soldiers in the trenches saw the gasoline barrels, they immediately understood what was going on. They were going to burn the entire trench. They had no time to fight back and didn't even dare to fire a gun. Even a small spark could turn them into roasted pigs.

Unfortunately, these guys couldn't escape at all. When the gasoline barrel was thrown down, it was followed by the glass Molotov cocktail. How could you guys have a chance to escape? If we let you run away in this situation, who would we ask for the credit for our contribution?

More than 20 jeeps were loaded with more than 300 oil drums and more than a dozen Molotov cocktails. The more than 500-meter trenches that the Japanese had just dug were now all engulfed in flames. Some Japanese who could not escape directly crawled out of the trenches. It was not that they did not want to die, but they hoped that the soldiers of the 72nd Army in the distance could give them a bullet and prevent them from dying in pain.

"Stop shooting, everyone retreat."

After seeing this scene, the leading officer sneered and ordered his brothers to retreat quickly.

What a joke! Even if you are not burned to death, you will be a seriously burned wounded soldier. Everyone can clearly distinguish between a wounded soldier and a dead Japanese soldier. You should make it more difficult for your Japanese army and also add some pain to you, so that you know that this land is not where you should be.

In the days that followed, your painful wails should have served as a reminder to your comrades, letting them know that this land is not as simple as they thought, and that every step forward here will cost them blood.

When the jeep turned around, the brothers in the passenger seats of each car began to throw out smoke bombs. Although the Japanese machine guns would definitely fire indiscriminately, without a target, the brothers had a greater chance of escape.

Battalion Commander Chu stood on the train station building and saw thick smoke rising in the distance. He knew that his brothers had succeeded. "You still want to dig under me by tunneling? Dream on."

Of the more than 300 Japanese soldiers who participated in the attack, more than half were turned into roasted pigs, and some suffered deep burns. Their howling could be heard even at the Tianjin Railway Station.
