Chapter 305 Explosion
Chapter 305 Explosion
When Wang Ming heard Ding Wei complaining, he immediately patted his chest loudly.
"Master Ding, just sit aside and watch the show. Leave the rest to me!"
Wang Ming immediately led the special forces team to get busy.
They took the tools used to drill holes under Linfen City, replaced the drill bits and started drilling holes in the ground.
"Captain Wang, with just this little gadget, how long will it take you to drill a hole in this three or four meter thick reinforced concrete?"
Ding Wei originally thought that Wang Ming had some good idea, but when he saw the small drill bit, which was not much thicker than an embroidery needle, making holes, he couldn't sit still.
"Oh, I'm getting anxious just looking at this. Even if you can sharpen this little diamond into a needle and make it spark with lightning, it will take forever!"
Wang Ming ignored Ding Wei and continued to direct his soldiers to dig holes with full concentration. In less than ten minutes, seventeen or eighteen deep holes appeared in the yard.
"Load explosives!"
High explosives were poured into the deep holes and then fuses were installed one by one.
"Captain Ding, tell all the soldiers to retreat. We will detonate immediately!"
Ding Wei looked at this tiny bit of explosives with a bit of disdain, his eyes narrowed.
"With just this little bit of explosives, can you really create something explosive?"
Ding Wei ordered all the soldiers to a safe distance, but he himself stood close by with his big head held high.
There was a "boom"!
Seventeen or eighteen deep holes burst out with huge energy at the same time, raising large amounts of sand and dust that covered the sky and the sun.
The Japanese soldiers on the underground floor looked up at the shaking top of the fortifications with a trace of fear and despair.
The smoke and dust cleared, and Wang Ming walked up to Ding Wei who was standing there.
"Captain Ding, you didn't get hit by the bomb, did you? Let's go check it out."
"What? Why are you talking so quietly? Speak louder!"
Ding Wei turned sideways, put one hand around his ear, and reached out to Wang Ming.
Wang Ming smiled in his heart. It was obvious that Ding Wei's ears were buzzing from the explosion of explosives!
"I'm saying, are you okay? Let's go check it out!"
Wang Ming raised his voice several degrees, and then pointed his finger at the concrete floor in the yard.
Kong Jie half guessed and half guessed, and followed Wang Ming to the yard that was about to be blown up into a mess.
Under the blue bricks in the yard is a meter-thick layer of soil, and then a whole piece of reinforced concrete is exposed.
"My goodness, the Japs really spent a lot of money to build such a large area of fortifications. They are so damn generous!"
Zhu Ziran pushed his glasses and said coldly:
"These are all the resources that the Japanese plundered from Shanxi!"
Wang Meng then asked his brothers in the infantry division to simply clean up the loose soil and broken cement blocks, and then continued to dig holes, place explosives and detonate.
However, during the next few explosions, Ding Wei stayed far away, fearing that his ears would be ruined again.
After two more explosions, based on the measured depth, it was basically certain that the reinforced concrete would be blasted through.
"Comrades, first drill a hole to check the depth, then drill the other holes according to the first hole, making sure not to drill through!"
The nervous little Japanese soldier was sweating profusely, staring at the top of his head and listening to the irritating drilling sound.
"Baga, I can't stand it anymore, I want to rush out!"
What is more painful than death is waiting for death.
The Japanese soldier soon found this torture unbearable and rushed towards the tunnel entrance with his three rifles. However, before he could even show his head, he was shot in the head by several semi-automatic rifles.
Seeing his miserable condition, the other Japanese soldiers also waited obediently for the sentence of death.
However, for them, death is just a matter of half an hour earlier or later.
With a deafening sound, a hole of more than 100 square meters appeared in the huge reinforced concrete. The shattered concrete blocks killed and injured countless Japanese soldiers below.
When the smoke and dust cleared, Ding Wei, his two companions, and Wang Ming leaned over.
"Wow! So magnificent? This must be several acres of land, right?"
"Old Ding, I didn't expect their fortifications to be so thick. Fortunately, we didn't call in aerial bombs, otherwise it would have been a waste!"
"Stop talking nonsense. It looks like there's room for at least two squadrons in here! Let's get to work!"
Ding Wei's 1st Infantry Division Reconnaissance Battalion was responsible for the main attack. They first threw dozens of grenades into the pit to cover the main force as they entered the tunnel through the stairs at the entrance.
After the reconnaissance battalion was deployed, they used automatic rifles to gradually clear out a layer of Japanese soldiers.
If you encounter a single Japanese soldier, use your rifle directly.
If you encounter light or heavy machine guns, use grenades to deal with them.
In short, following this hole, the occupied area was expanded in four directions, advancing from the ruins to the areas that had not been blown up.
In one hour, one floor was cleaned.
At the second floor entrance, as soon as Ding Wei showed his head, a volley of bullets was fired at him.
"Damn it, that's so rude, greeting guests with bullets! Are there any comrades who know Japanese? Tell them to come out and practice one-on-one!"
Wang Ming stood up with a smile and took the initiative to take on this task.
He rolled up a torn paper tube and shouted into it.
"Officers and soldiers of Japan, you are already trapped in a jar. You can't escape. Our commander, Division Commander Ding Wei, has a proposal. We will give you a chance to die honorably. Take up your sabers and fight us one-on-one. If you win, you will be free. If you lose, I admire your Bushido spirit!"
On the second underground floor, a group of Japanese officers, holding a command knife in their left hand and a Type 14 Nambu pistol in their right hand, looked at each other, and finally turned their eyes to the supreme commander, Ishida Keio.
"General, what do you think?"
Ishida Keio thought for a long time and decided that instead of being killed by their grenades or drowned by the water, it would be better to go out and get some fresh air. Maybe he still has a chance.
"Then let them have a taste of the power of our Bushido, and let them understand what a warrior is!"
Ishida Keio ordered some soldiers to stay and continue destroying documents, code books and various drawings, and the remaining Japanese officers followed him and slowly walked up the stairs.
Wearing white gloves, Ishida Keio still maintained a proud posture, holding the general's sword in his left hand and pointing his right hand at Ding Wei, Kong Jie and Xing Zhiguo in the air.
"The independent column is very powerful. It is the most capable Chinese army I have ever seen. It is even more difficult to deal with than the M Army in the Pacific battlefield. But forgive me for being blunt. You took advantage of the advanced weapons this time. We soldiers and warriors despise it!"
The Japanese translator translated these words aloud, which made Ding Wei and the other two feel angry.
"You damned little Japs still don't give in? Even if I don't have advanced airplanes and cannons, I can still take down Linfen City with my teeth!"
"That's right. If you don't agree, let's fight with swords! Lao Ding, Lao Xing, I'll go first!"
After Kong Jie finished speaking, he took out the big knife blade and gestured twice.
