Chapter 791 791 The Real Assassin
In fact, the special forces of the Tang Army did not know where Feng Kezhi's headquarters was. They raided each building one by one, and captured the Dahua officers in the buildings for careful interrogation.
"You'd better say it quickly! Where is Feng Kezhi!" Looking down at a Dahua officer who was kneeling on the ground with his head in his hands, a Tang Army special forces soldier holding an assault rifle asked in a fierce tone.
The officer was obviously frightened, because he was a civilian official in the army, had never been on the battlefield, and did not dare to take his own life for granted.
So he immediately confessed and answered Tang Jun's question: "Across the street, in a yard over there, there is a basement..."
As a civilian officer, I had gone to Feng Kezhi’s headquarters for a meeting before and even met Feng Kezhi.
There are some antennas used by radio stations in the yard over there. At a glance, you can tell that it is a headquarters, and this cannot be hidden.
What's even more interesting is that there are some temporarily connected telephone lines there. This thing is also new and did not exist in Fengjiang City before. As the war progressed, Feng Kezhi set up the headquarters here, so there is such a thing. Many phone lines were temporarily deployed.
Even for the sake of concealment, a camouflage net was hung here to disguise it as a ruins, hiding an extremely important target at a glance.
"It looks right! That courtyard should be Feng Kezhi's general headquarters, otherwise there wouldn't be so much communication equipment." Glancing at the headquarters in the distance, the commander of the special forces faced He stretched out his hand behind him: "Walkie-talkie!"
A special forces soldier carrying a walkie-talkie came forward and handed the big-brother-looking communication device that he carried, which was larger than a 2.25-liter Coke bottle and weighed even more, to his superior.
“I am from Team 1…now reporting…the coordinates…” he said while looking at a noncommissioned officer who was checking the map and compass.
The sergeant raised his head and said two numbers directly. The commander reported the numbers to the friendly troops on the other end of the walkie-talkie: "According to the coordinates, carry out the attack...Help us deal with the nearby defense forces."
"Understood!" A voice with a slight electrical interference came from the walkie-talkie: "Be careful to release smoke, mark yourself... to avoid accidental injury."
“Rooftop! Yellow smoke!”
Less than a minute later, the Il-2 attack planes and Stuka dive bombers that had been hovering above Fengjiang City immediately began to dive.
It is somewhat inappropriate to use artillery fire on this kind of target, because it is easy to accidentally injure friendly troops, and it is also easy to kill important targets directly.
So under normal circumstances, similar cover attack tasks are given to the Air Force, because the Air Force's attacks are more precise—at least, there is not such a high probability of destroying an entire area.
The attack method of the IL-2 attack aircraft is different from that of the Stuka dive bomber. This aircraft is more suitable for cutting into the target area at a low angle and then launching strafing suppression.
Two IL-2 attack aircraft cut in from the other end of the battlefield, using rockets mounted under their wings to level two houses on the north side of the building whose roofs were filled with yellow smoke.
Soon, two other Il-2 attack aircraft joined the strafing ranks. They fired directly at the coordinates with four 20mm cannons, reducing all the camouflage nets covering the yard into tattered rags.
The Dahua troops, which had almost lost their anti-aircraft fire, could only watch as eight Il-2 attack aircraft took turns attacking them.
They originally had a numerical advantage and were trying to eliminate the infiltrating Tang Army troops. But they were soon defeated by attacks from the air, and the several houses where they were hiding were reduced to rubble by machine guns and rockets.
The soldiers on the street were even more unlucky, because two Stukas dropped large bombs, leaving two craters with a diameter of more than ten meters in the nearby streets.
The surrounding Dahua troops suffered heavy losses. They were originally covered with camouflage nets, and the Dahua Empire's cars and carriages hiding in some shadows could not be hidden this time. The airwaves from the explosion blew away their camouflage, and all these cars were exposed to the sight of the Tang Air Force pilots.
Another Il-2 attack plane flew over at low altitude and strafed the entire street with its four cannons. More than a dozen cars parked on the street were all beaten into parts and died together under the scattered debris. There are at least 20 Dahua soldiers.
"Be careful! Be careful! Don't hit the yellow smoke area! Our own people are over there! Our own people!" The voice of the operational commander sounded in the pilot's earphones.
The pilot of the lead plane also kept reminding him to avoid the bullets fired by the incoming enemy anti-aircraft machine guns.
He dodged a little too late, and the opponent's machine gun bullets hit the thick steel plate beside him, making a crackling sound.
The fuselage of the aircraft he was on was punctured, the fuel tank may have leaked a little, the control was reduced, and the aircraft's response speed was somewhat slowed down. Fortunately, he could still fly, so the slightly smoking Il-2 attack aircraft broke away from the attack formation and returned to the area controlled by the Tang Army.
On the ground, the overwhelmed Dahua troops no longer cared about the Tang Army soldiers who had infiltrated. They were driven back by the Tang Army's planes and cannons, like a group of rats crossing the street.
"Attack! Attack!" Seeing that the enemy army in front of them had been defeated, the Tang Army's special forces immediately began to move forward. They laid a large amount of yellow smoke directly ahead, and then quickly passed through the street under the cover of the smoke, rushing Entering the General Headquarters of the Great Chinese Army, whose courtyard wall has collapsed.
In the yard, Dahua's remaining troops were still resisting desperately, but soon they were defeated because their firepower was really inferior to their opponents.
Some Dahua soldiers hid in the house, relying on the windows to fire outside, while others desperately piled things in the house into bunkers, trying to block the Tang army that was about to rush into the house.
In the basement, fierce gunshots could already be heard outside, and the recent plane bombing also frightened some civilian officers hiding here.
The innermost door is still closed tightly, and Feng Kezhi is still in his room, wiping the exquisite pistol in his hand.
"General! Get out of here! We can't hold it any longer!" The adjutant who had just gone out to see the situation began to persuade his chief officer again.
He actually hoped that Feng Kezhi would listen to his persuasion and escape from here as soon as possible. Because if Feng Kezhi doesn't leave, he can only stay here...
No one wants to die casually. If there is hope of survival, most people will still choose the path that allows them to survive. Even if you can only live for one more day, that's actually a good thing, right?
"Let's go! I..." Looking at the pistol in his hand, Feng Kezhi said to his adjutant somewhat lonelyly without raising his head: "I'm going to stay here and not leave."
"I promised Shen Shangshu that I would not be a prisoner... This can be regarded as an explanation to this Lord Shangshu." After he finished speaking these words, he let out a long breath, as if he had exhausted all his strength. .
“General!” The adjutant took a step forward.
Feng Kezhi waved his hand and signaled the other party to leave quickly: "Let's go! Let's go! I hope that the last person to die in this war will be me. If you are willing to surrender, surrender quickly and don't lose your life in vain."
Outside the door, the gunfire became more intense. The unique sound of the Tang Army's Type 56 assault rifle was already close at hand, and the submachine guns equipped by the Dahua Empire troops were also firing continuously.
A grenade rolled into the house and then exploded near the window. The iron rain set off tore apart the Dahua officers and soldiers who were crowded around.
The gunshots began to become sparse, but the remaining Dahua troops were still resisting. They guarded every room and vowed not to take a step back.
"General!" In the basement, the adjutant wanted to step forward: "You can't die in vain."
As an adjutant, he had been with Feng Kezhi for more than ten years. How could he not have any feelings for him? At this time, he was asked to leave Feng Kezhi alone to wait for death. He would rather stay with Feng Kezhi.
"You are still young. You may be promoted after you go back. Let's go... let's go!" Feng Kezhi continued to wave his hands and insisted on the order: "This is my order! Execute it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the room was pushed open. A Dahua officer carrying a pistol broke in, which stunned the two people in the room.
The other party did not hesitate, he raised his gun and fired. One shot hit Feng Kezhi in the chest as he stood up. Feng Kezhi raised his pistol and shot the opponent. After the opponent took one shot, he shot Feng Kezhi again.
In the chaos, the adjutant finally realized that this Dahua officer lurking in the headquarters had been waiting for this opportunity! This person... is the real nail planted by Emperor Zhao Kai!
So the adjutant subconsciously pulled out the pistol from his waist, shouted who was coming, and opened fire on the officer who had already been shot once and was still firing at Feng Kezhi.
Feng Kezhi fell down on his chair and fell on his back. The officer's third shot hit the solid wood table directly, knocking all the documents on it flying.
But then the killer who was shot once was also shot by Feng Kezhi's adjutant. He turned around and seemed to want to shoot the adjutant twice. As a result, he was hit by several bullets. He lost strength and staggered back two steps. , and then fell down.
The adjutant, who had almost emptied the magazine, rushed towards Feng Kezhi who was lying on the ground behind the table. The other party shot Feng Kezhi below the right collarbone and once in Feng Kezhi's abdomen. Feng Kezhi was now stained red with blood. The general uniform worn by Katsuyuki.
