Shang Zhen looked around and saw that although Hu Biao said that it was fortunate that it was not a tank but an armored vehicle, the faces of the veterans around him did not look relaxed.
As a new recruit, Shang Zhen only imagined how powerful the tanks or armored vehicles were. Naturally, he did not have the knowledge of the veterans.
Fortunately, what Hu Biao said was not a tank but an armored vehicle. That is of course because tanks have guns while armored vehicles do not.
If the enemy is coming with tanks, they have to run away now. If they fire artillery, they will have nowhere to hide and will be bombed.
But now armored vehicles are different, at least they are not as powerful as tanks.
If the Chinese army has any knowledge of tanks and armored vehicles, it has to be the Northeast Army.
What's more, the brigade that Hu Biao and his men belonged to was the elite of the Northeast Army. How could they be stationed in Beidaying? It was probably just Shang Zhen, a weirdo who got in through the backdoor.
The Northeast Army could build tanks on its own. No matter how Hu Biao planned to deal with the Japanese armored vehicles, at least he was familiar with them. As a veteran, he had even gotten inside an armored vehicle to take a look.
But Hu Biao said this just to boost morale. The veterans understood that even if the vehicle coming from the opposite side was an armored vehicle instead of a tank with a gun, it would not be so easy to deal with. No matter how thin the armored vehicle was, they could not penetrate it with light weapons. They had to fight desperately again!
"Wang Laomao, Lu Zhian, Liu Qianxi, the Japanese armored vehicles will enter the woods soon. Each of your platoons will send four groups of people to approach them. I don't care what tricks you use with grenades, you must blow up their iron turtles for me!" Hu Biao ordered again. The three people he called were the three platoon leaders under his command.
The situation was critical at this time. At Hu Biao's command, the three platoon leaders including Wang Laomao began to select their own men.
Shang Zhen, who had been watching from the sidelines, was already influenced by the atmosphere, and he unconsciously tightened the rifle in his hand.
It was the first time for Shang Zhen to fight against an armored vehicle, so he was of course nervous.
However, he also knew that it would never be the job of a rookie like him to blow up an armored vehicle.
Although he was nervous, his mind was not idle.
What he was thinking now was that they wanted to blow up the two armored vehicles coming from the front, but the infantry behind the armored vehicles were not to be trifled with. How could they possibly tolerate their men getting close to the armored vehicles?
Besides, the area here was completely flat, so who could guarantee that the two armored vehicles would head for their forest? Wouldn't they head for the other two companies on either side of the forest?
Shang Zhen was just thinking about it when he heard Wang Laomao calling out "Li Fushun".
Shang Zhen was shocked. Wang Laomao was picking people to blow up the armored vehicle, but he also picked his third brother Li Fushun!
Shang Zhen was thinking about something and didn't pay attention. Only then did he see that Li Fushun had tied four grenades together!
There is no doubt that even if Wang Laomao had not personally called him out, his third brother Li Fushun would have taken the initiative to go forward. Otherwise, why would he have bundled grenades?
"Third brother, are four grenades enough?" Ma Erhuzi next to him asked worriedly.
"I don't know! The Japanese armored vehicles are not as strong as ours!" Li Fushun said gritting his teeth, then he looked at Shang Zhen with worry in his eyes.
In war, brothers fight together and fathers and sons fight together.
Although Li Fushun and Shang Zhen are not blood brothers, they are better than blood brothers!
The people of Northeast China are tough and unsophisticated, but they also value friendship and loyalty.
Li Fushun absolutely regarded Shang Zhen's parents as his own parents. He knew that it was Shang Zhen's parents who gave him life again.
But now he is a soldier, and the Japanese devils have invaded the three northeastern provinces. He has no right to retreat!
But he was worried about Shang Zhen!
If I die, I die, but what about Shang Zhen?
By this time, Wang Laomao had already finished commanding his troops.
Seeing that Wang Laomao didn't mention Ma Erhuzi's name, Wang Laomao said, "Huzi, if I die, please take good care of my brother!"
As soon as Li Fushun said this, even Shang Zhen could feel the affection in his words.
Wang Laomao has always called himself "Xiaoer", which is naturally because he is the second child in the family.
But now he is solemnly calling him "my brother". If we use classical Chinese words, it is called "entrusting an orphan to someone else". If we use the words of the common people, it is a last will and testament!
At this moment, Shang Zhen called out "Brother--" but he couldn't continue. He felt all the blood in his body rushing up. He was also a man, and he couldn't let his brother die no matter what!
But at this moment he heard gunshots, and the sound of the gunshots was like a sudden storm, which directly interrupted what he wanted to say.
However, the gunshots did not come from their woods, but from the first and third companies on both wings of the woods.
Of course, the bullets could not penetrate the Japanese armored vehicles, and they were not hitting the armored vehicles, but the puppet soldiers behind the armored vehicles.
The puppet army joined forces with the Japanese army, using two armored vehicles as the vanguard, but ultimately they were unable to protect all the infantry behind them.
As the gunshots rang out, some of the puppet soldiers behind the armored vehicle were shot and fell to the ground, while others desperately hid behind the armored vehicle. The battle began!
However, as the Northeast Army's firepower increased, the two armored vehicles on the opposite side sped up, and then the heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles began to fire.
Heavy machine guns are different after all. The sound of a heavy machine gun is like the sound of a sheng and bamboo music being played, and suddenly a suona interrupts.
The suona is known as the "rogue" of national musical instruments. When the sound comes out, all other instruments are suppressed!
At this time, the puppet soldiers behind the tanks also came out one after another, and rushed towards them under the cover of the heavy machine guns!
"Everyone in the explosion team, get out of the way. Everyone else, beat the fucking Iron Turtle! There's a small observation window in front of that Iron Turtle. Seal it with bullets!" Company Commander Hu Biao yelled.
At his roar, their second company also started moving.
The people responsible for dealing with the armored vehicles pulled to both sides, while the people in the middle raised their guns and shot at the two armored vehicles in front, although they didn't know why Hu Biao asked them to do so.
At this time, Shang Zhen also fired his rifle. He really didn't want to look at his third brother Li Fushun.
He didn't want Li Fushun to die, so the two brothers looked at each other as if they were saying goodbye to each other!
