Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 754 Republican Era Version of the Doomsday Truck

After receiving the orders from Dai Yunong, Ye Shaohong came out with Mao Sen.

They went directly to the city defense command headquarters.

A company of soldiers was selected from the city defense command and joined the second action brigade led by Chi Tiecheng, totaling more than 150 people, and they came to Yuzhong District together.

The Japanese arsenal was hidden in a warehouse in Yuzhong District.

Apart from Sasaki Kuroaki, the traitor who served as a purchasing agent, the other seven members of their group were stationed in the warehouse.

These people are indeed worthy of their military background.

The warehouse location they chose was strategically important, occupying a prime military position.

Upon arriving at the scene, Mao Sen conducted a brief inspection, and immediately frowned.

"It's troublesome."

"They're not easy to deal with."

"This warehouse is surrounded by mountains on one side and a river on the other. The road in front is narrow and difficult to travel. If the enemy occupies a favorable position and has heavy firepower support, it will be difficult for us to succeed in attacking without paying a heavy price."

"If nothing unexpected happens, this will be a tough battle!"

Mao Sen, during his tenure as the captain of the Second Battalion of the Loyal and Patriotic Army, commanded guerrilla forces and fought against the Japanese invaders for a year.

During this period, he fought countless battles.

In terms of command experience alone, Mao Sen, a military commander without formal training, was far more capable than Ye Shaohong, a graduate of the Whampoa Military Academy. Ye Shaohong also agreed with Mao Sen's views and conclusions.

"It's definitely going to be tough!"

"We need to think of other ways!"

Ye Shaohong also frowned, looking at the surrounding terrain and the layout of the houses, his face showing a solemn expression.

After a while.

He suddenly thought of Sasaki Kuroaki.

Should we allow this defector to infiltrate under the pretext of delivering food, so that we can coordinate with those inside?

The idea is good.

But Ye Shaohong abandoned the idea as soon as it came to mind.

There was no other reason than that Ye Shaohong did not believe Sasaki Kuroaki's defection was something that had not been easily accomplished.

If given the chance, Ye Shaohong couldn't guarantee that Sasaki Kuroaki wouldn't betray him again.

His gaze then swept across the area and landed on the troop transport trucks.

Ye Shaohong's eyes immediately lit up.

"Have it!"

"On my way here, I remember passing by the armory, right?"

"There should be steel plates and welding tools there!"

"Could we weld thicker steel plates onto the truck's cab and driver's seat to convert it into a makeshift armored vehicle?"

"We'll use armored vehicles to clear the way, with the city's infantry providing support. If we can successfully break down the warehouse door and storm in, this battle will be resolved quickly."

They were lucky to be located in the strategically important city of Chongqing, and fighting on home soil, allowing them to draw upon a lot of external resources. Otherwise, even if Ye Shaohong had the idea, he wouldn't have been able to implement it. "Good idea!"

"Someone, quickly dispatch two troop transport trucks to the ordnance repair shop and modify the cabs according to Director Ye's idea."

"We need to be quick. With so many of us moving together, it's hard to guarantee that the Japanese soldiers inside the warehouse won't notice us."

Mao Sen's eyes lit up immediately after hearing Ye Shaohong's suggestion.

As the supreme commander of this arrest operation, Mao Sen was very decisive, and he immediately made arrangements.

Subsequently.

Mao Sen also transferred some of the city's defense troops to the river mouth and hills next to the warehouse for defense.

We must not leave the Japanese soldiers any loopholes to break through and escape.

More than half an hour later.

The troop transport trucks that were heading to the ordnance repair shop finally turned back. Ye Shaohong almost burst out laughing when he saw this.

Good guy.

There were indeed capable people during the Republic of China era. Look at these two troop transport trucks that have undergone modifications. Their cabs and cabs have been welded with thickened steel plates.

To guard against the Japanese melon grenades, the personnel at the ordnance repair shop welded some scrap steel bars onto the outside of the steel plate.

Protective netting was also welded onto the doors on both sides of the driver's cab.

Even the front wheels were welded with steel plates for protection; they were armed to the teeth.

It has a strong sense of post-apocalyptic survival.

It looks exactly like the prototype of the truck in the Mad Max movie.

"Very good!"

"With this in hand, it won't be difficult to break through the warehouse door."

Mao Sen definitely has a tyrannical gene. When he saw these ferocious weapons on the battlefield, a rare smile appeared on his face.

The strangest thing is that his smile also carried a hint of gentleness.

Ye Shaohong couldn't help but shudder at the sight.

Fortunately.

Mao Sen's feelings of admiration and praise did not last long. After a brief inspection of the modified vehicles, he immediately accepted the command.

Soldiers from the city's garrison were assigned to follow behind the two modified trucks and charge toward the warehouse gate.

Ye Shaohong was also busy.

He called over Chi Tiecheng, and the two of them each grabbed a Mauser 98K sniper rifle, found advantageous positions, and prepared to provide long-range sniper support for the city defense forces launching the main attack.

The battle erupted instantly. With the steel monsters in front of them providing cover, the Nationalist soldiers, who were usually weak in fighting spirit, were also inspired to fight.

They hid behind two modified cars and began charging towards the warehouse.

Where are the Japanese soldiers in the warehouse?

Although their numbers were small, their fighting spirit was strong, and their weaponry was quite luxurious for that era.

Relying on a dozen semi-automatic machine guns and boxes of grenades, they put up a stubborn resistance even though they were in a disadvantageous position.

Just then, Ye Shaohong fired his gun.

He seized that fleeting opportunity and keenly aimed at a Japanese soldier who popped out with a semi-automatic machine gun.

One shot was fired, and the bullet blew directly into the head.

Red and white things exploded all at once, making the Japanese soldiers inside the warehouse feel the threat of death. At the same time, Chi Tiecheng pulled the trigger.

He didn't hit the target this time, but his shot blocked the narrow passage through which the Japanese soldiers were fighting back with their guns.

This created favorable conditions for the city defense troops who were slowly moving forward in modified trucks.

And so, the two modified trucks moved slowly forward, and finally arrived at the warehouse entrance after five or six minutes.

The two trucks accelerated suddenly and crashed through the warehouse gate at the same time.

Just when Mao Sen and Ye Shaohong thought the battle was about to end, a Japanese soldier suddenly appeared inside the warehouse, holding a string of melon-shaped grenades, and charged at the truck that had broken through the warehouse gate.

They launched a suicide bombing attack.

After a deafening roar, a troop transport truck was completely destroyed on the spot.

Amidst the flying sparks, the city defense troops following behind the troop transport trucks were also startled, and some actually turned and fled. Seeing this, Ye Shaohong immediately became furious.

"Oh shit."

"They rushed in, and yet they were scared out of their wits!"

"Iron City, come with me!"

"We killed those Japanese devils in the warehouse with our own hands!"
