Chapter 50: Ambush
Seeing the fighter plane that turned around in mid-air and put on a posture that was about to dive over, the Japanese puppet army on the highway thought that this was another prank by the fighter pilot, so while they shouted and cursed in unison, these Japanese puppet soldiers were only prepared in advance to avoid swallowing dust, but they didn't expect that this was not a prank. Including the Japanese officers who took over the command of Kazuo Shimizu, when the fighter plane swooped down, they only lowered their heads and closed their mouths to avoid the entrance of dust, but no one would have thought that the situation would be turned upside down in the next moment.
The fighters hovering in mid-air swooped down one after another towards the Japanese puppet soldiers on the road, and just when all the Japanese puppet soldiers on the highway thought that this was a new round of pranks, the first fighter plane that dived down suddenly fired the two machine guns mounted on the fuselage. The two barrages that shot out of the "da" brought a large area of blood mist in the crowd, and the barrage that stretched all the way seemed to be like two sharp sickles, sweeping the Japanese puppet army on the highway to a large area.
"Nani? Why do these guys from the flying team shoot at their own people? "All the Japanese officers on the highway were dumbfounded by the dive-strafing planes, and they never imagined that these hateful fighters would shoot at themselves." Da Da
The long bloody road ran through the entire formation of the Japanese puppet army, and when the fourth fighter plane rushed across the highway to raise the nose, the Japanese puppet army on the highway completely reacted, ignoring the shouts of the officers, and rushed down the roadbed. The Japanese puppet army tried to leave the road and hide in the field under the roadbed, but unfortunately, the military uniforms on their bodies were too obvious in the field, and the fighters that swooped down immediately turned their guns to those Japanese puppet soldiers who had jumped off the roadbed into the field.
With the dense gunshots, columns of smoke continued to rise in the field, and a large number of Japanese puppet soldiers who fled into the field died in the barrage. There were also Japanese soldiers who raised their guns and fired at the fighters that were diving down, but the speed at which they fired could not be faster than the flight speed of the fighters, not to mention that they had to face the strafing of the two machine guns on the fuselage of the fighters.
The gang of guerrillas of the Wuyi County Brigade are all natives, and they have seen such a scene there, and the puppet army has been beaten into a pot of porridge by the dive strafing of more than a dozen fighters for more than 2,000 days. In fact, the amount of ammunition carried by the Japanese fighters was not very large, and after a dozen or so fighters circling in the air dived back and forth twice, there were very few bullets left.
"Guys, we're running out of bullets, let's go back." Max, the American pilot who temporarily commanded these fighters, shouted on the public channel, and the fighters, which had already run out of bullets, immediately began to return to the valley airfield. Seeing the fighters circling in the air swaggering away, the Japanese puppet soldiers on the highway and under the roadbed did not know whether they should be happy or sad, and got up to look left and right, the road and the roadbed were full of wailing wounded soldiers and silent corpses.
Shinichi Hirota, who was elected as the temporary commander, escaped by luck, but he couldn't be happy at the moment, and Shinichi Hirota's heart was heavy on the corpses and bloodstains all over the ground. The shouts of the Japanese officers began to sound on the road, and the Japanese puppet soldiers who were lucky enough to be alive began to rummage through the bloody highway to search for the injured survivors who were not dead, but most of the ones they found were out of breath.
The team of more than 2,000 people left Hengshui City, and before they reached their destination, they were killed and injured by more than a dozen imperial fighters of unknown origin, which was not a good thing for Shinichi Hirota. Shinichi Hirota's only good fortune was that those Imperial fighters didn't drop bombs just now, otherwise there might have been hundreds more dead and wounded in his army. Shinichi Hirota was glad that Zhuo Fei was sick at the moment, and learned that the reason why the pilot who controlled the Japanese fighter did not carry the bomb was because he was not familiar with the performance of the Japanese fighter, so Zhuo Fei was not good at saying anything.
"Ready, fire at my command." Having moved from the back to the guerrillas' ambush point, Zhuo Fei saw that the Japanese puppet army on the road began to re-line, so he whispered to the guerrillas who were waiting for him. The fire Zhuo Fei said was not to use firearms to shoot at the enemy, but the six light mortars lined up on their sides, two of these six light mortars belonged to the county brigade and guerrilla units, and the other four were brought by the group of pilots when they landed in the air.
Zhuo Fei and them are more than 300 meters away from the Japanese puppet army on the highway at the moment, which prevents them from being counterattacked by the Japanese grenadiers when they fire the artillery for a while, and for the mortars in the Japanese puppet army, they have a combination of Zhuo Fei and Zhuo Yan to deal with. The wounded soldier who couldn't stop ** was found out of the pile of corpses, and with the help of his companions, he staggered back to the road, and saw the Japanese puppet army that had broken down and regrouped on the road, and Zhuo Fei filled the first shell into the muzzle.
With a "tom" sound, the cannonball shot out of the barrel and flew into the air, and then fell in a parabola towards the Japanese puppet army on the road. The screaming sound in mid-air caused the Japanese soldiers on the road to look sideways, and the screaming that was getting closer and closer caused some Japanese veterans to shout in surprise. The "boom" landed and exploded into a sea of fire, and the incendiary bomb that was shot by Zhuo Fei directly divided the Japanese puppet army on the road into two from the middle.
"Open the cannons, shoot all the shells." Zhuo Fei won the blow and immediately ordered all the mortars to fire, and the temporary gunners who had been drawn out immediately laughed and fired out one shell after another. Half incendiary bomb and half high-explosive bomb, such an intense artillery attack made the Japanese puppet army on the highway that had just been gathered together blow up again. Regardless of the Japanese puppet soldiers, they jumped off the roadbed again, hiding their bodies and minds while raising their guns to find the location of the attackers.
did not wait for the counterattack of the Japanese artillery, and the mortar that Zhuo Fei and the others were responsible for also joined the ranks of the bombardment of the Japanese army, and several boxes of shells that brought the ambush point were all shot out by the guerrillas in just a few minutes. "Retreat, retreat, according to our plan in advance, except for those who retreat with mortars, everyone else will follow me." Seeing that the shells were all gone, Zhuo Fei immediately got up and moved diagonally towards the road.
The continuous shelling finally stopped, but the Japanese puppet army that suffered the shelling still did not dare to show up rashly, and after more than ten minutes, the Japanese puppet soldiers in the field followed the instructions of the officers and cautiously searched in the direction where the shells were flying. When the Japanese puppet army reacted, Zhuo Fei and the others had already gone away, and these Japanese soldiers who were searching quickly could not find Zhuo Fei's shadow, so they could only return in a huff.
After two attacks in succession, the casualties of the Japanese puppet army in Hengshui were close to half, and in this case, Shinichi Hirota, who was hit in the left arm by shrapnel, had to order the troops to return to Hengshui. The dejected Japanese puppet army returned along the same route with their wounded, but they had no idea that the attackers who had shelled them just now were waiting for them on their way back.
The bullets had already been loaded, the back cover of the grenade had been unscrewed, and the broadsword was sharpened even faster, and the guerrillas who were patiently ambushing on both sides of the road were quietly waiting for the appearance of the Japanese puppet army. Zhuo Fei and the two of them were in the front, and the mines planted before needed to be detonated by the remote control, and the effective distance of the remote control was already limited, and if they were too far away, they might not be able to detonate the mines and explosives planted.
All the Japanese puppet troops, including Shinichi Hirota, did not expect that after having already suffered two attacks, they would encounter another attack on their way back. By revealing a well-camouflaged observation hole on the surface, Zhuo Feimo, who was hiding in the hole, calculated the speed at which the Japanese army entered the minefield on the road, and the same as the previous actions of the Japanese army, the retreating Japanese army at this moment was also at the front of the entire queue, and the Imperial Allied Army was placed at the back of the queue by the Japanese army.
"Come on, come on." Zhuo Yan, who was squatting beside Zhuo Fei, muttered to himself, watching all the Japanese soldiers enter the minefield little by little. When the last cart of the Japanese army to haul the corpses and machine guns also entered the minefield, Zhuo Fei in the cave grinned and pressed the button of the remote control. With a loud "boom," the cart that happened to be walking on top of the mine rose into the air, and in the smoke and dust raised high, the cart and the wounded soldiers pulled on the cart were torn apart.
"Boom," "Boom," "Boom," "Boom" Before the Japanese troops could react, the mines and explosives in the minefield exploded one after another, and the entire section of the 300-meter-long road was full of flames and flying limbs. Even the guerrillas who were lying in ambush on both sides of the road were also frightened by this scene, such a tragic explosion scene was something they had never seen before, and the stumps and broken arms that flew up with the explosion were no joke, this scene was really tragic.
"Don't be stunned, shoot." The smoke and dust from the explosion gradually dissipated, and he looked at the corpses of the Japanese soldiers on the road from a distance, but the guerrillas who had been ambushed in advance forgot to shoot, and Zhuo Fei, who crawled out of the hole, had to fire the first shot. The machine guns of the guerrillas rang out closely, and the gunfire on both sides of the road became more and more intense, and all the Japanese soldiers who were still alive were the targets of the guerrillas.
