Chapter 15: Guan Yu is the same
Guo Zhuang, Yu Village, where Ren Laifeng is located, is almost more than ten kilometers away, and it will take less than two hours to arrive if you march in a hurry. The military situation is urgent, there is nothing to say, Ren Laifeng resigned to the sixth grandfather, and the officers and soldiers of the Flying Tiger Battalion said goodbye to the villagers in Yu Village. When the soldiers lined up and began to set off, the villagers of Yu Village stood at the entrance of the village under the leadership of the sixth grandfather to see each other off collectively.
"Sir, you have to come back when you're free!"
"Big brother, when you pass through Yu Village in the future, remember to come in and see your sister-in-law!"
The reluctant farewell words made the hearts of the officers and soldiers warm, but the military situation was urgent, and now they had no time to say more to the villagers. "Goodbye, we're gone. Take care! The warriors waved their hands and hurried on their way.
"Sixth grandfather, you say, sir, will they come back?"
"Yes, of course. They saved the lives of all the people in our village, how can they do if they don't come back? His second sister-in-law, you make a few pairs of new shoes and give them to him after the next time the chief comes, which is also a piece of our heart for the villagers. Don't let people say we're ungrateful. ”
"Hey, I'll do it when I get back. Hey, I still have a pair of new shoes made last year in my box, how can I forget them? Sir! Sir! You wait! ”
"Don't shout, the chief won't wait for you if he wants to fight the devil. Wait for next time, don't forget next time. ”
"I can't forget it, I will never forget it again in my life."
"Quick, quick!" Ren Laifeng kept urging and accelerating, and the troops went faster and faster. The journey, which was expected to take an hour and 40 minutes, turned out to take only an hour and 10 minutes to get there. Scout's Report: The front of the village is Guozhuang. Ren Laifeng ordered the troops to stop advancing and rest in place.
The devil hasn't come yet, and now there is no need to go into the village to interfere with the normal life of the villagers. Fight devils, just outside the village!
The entrance to the village is a dirt road five or six meters wide, and it is estimated that this is the only way to go if the devil wants to come. There are woods and bushes on both sides of the road, and beyond the woods there are fields of farmland. Ren Laifeng divided the Flying Tiger Battalion into two parts, and went to the side close to the farmland in one company after another; The third company and the separate brigade were held on the side close to the village. The entire unit distanced itself along the road, forming a number of crossfire points. The machine-gun platoon and the small artillery platoon each found shelter and stood by.
An iron net against the Japanese army has been secretly opened.
Twenty minutes after the troops were arranged, the scouts reported: The Japanese army is already coming this way! Ren Laifeng looked at the road, and suddenly slapped his thigh, he forgot to plant a mine! If you plant a few mines and wait for the devil to pull the strings when they pass over, then it is called a truly classic ambush battle! It's a pity. However, he had forgotten that there seemed to be no firearms such as mines in all the weapons and equipment of the Flying Tiger Battalion.
There was a faint shaking on the ground, and dust was rising in the distance, and the devil really came on time. Ren Laifeng held the formal rifle in his arms, and his eyes looked hard at the end of the road. First, there was a wave of dust, and then a team of devil soldiers wearing yellow military uniforms and fart curtain hats walked over with their heads held high. Ren Laifeng crawled to the ground, and the muzzle of the gun looked for a target in the devil team.
Look at the devils who have entered the range, and the index finger gently pulls the trigger. "Smack!" As soon as the gunshots rang out, the most energetic devil in front of the team who was carrying the plaster flag fell to his death. The battalion commander got off to a good start with the first shot! This was followed by a burst of gunfire and grenade throwing, and the battle quickly entered a fever pitch!
Devils aren't vegetarians. Seeing that the ambush was in sight, the devil commander immediately mobilized his forces to launch a counterattack! The two Japanese squads quickly broke away from the group, and while firing, they formed an assault formation, crossed each other's cover and charged at our ambush position.
Due to the ambush in advance, the sudden opening of fire, and the occupation of favorable terrain on both sides of the road, the Flying Tiger Battalion of the two armies had the upper hand in the first exchange of fire. When the devil relieved himself and sent elite troops to prepare for a counterattack, it was already too late.
The backbone of the Flying Tiger Battalion are veterans who have experienced several battles, or even more than ten battles. In previous battles, it was common to be in danger and even in a desperate situation, how could they let the devil turn the tables when they took the lead?
The devil's individual soldiers are of high quality and have a hard shooting accuracy, and our soldiers often do not have the upper hand when shooting at the devils. Rifle-to-rifle has no upper hand? Then get on the machine gun! Crooked handles, Czech style, ninety-six type, in short, there is no shortage of these kinds of light machine guns commonly found on the market, such as the Flying Tiger Battalion, pull them all out, give me a fight!
The two counterattack squads were blocked halfway by a dozen light machine guns. On one side are the ambush troops hiding behind the prepared bunkers and shooting, and on the other side are the assault troops leaking out in broad daylight. No matter how good the devil's marksmanship is and how tacit he is, if the time and place are right, they will not be able to win the battle.
After each of the two counterattack teams threw down a dozen corpses, they ran back to the brigade in embarrassment. The devil commander whined angrily. At this moment, there were several explosions, and the small artillery platoon of the Flying Tiger Battalion also saw the right time to fire! Several mortar shells fell into the pile of devils and exploded, not to mention the dead and wounded, and the originally neat formation also blew up.
The sound of guns and cannons in the distance was like a muffled thunder in summer, and the flashes in the sky were one after another, which was the main force of the Twelfth Army fighting a decisive battle with the Japanese army. It is said that it is a decisive battle, but in fact, it is more like relying on the strong to bully the weak, and it is more appropriate to say that they are winning the battle.
There were more than 20,000 people in the Twelfth Army, and the devils were only in their early 1,000s at best, and this huge difference in numbers could never be made up for by the excellent accuracy of a single soldier. The Third Army is now running after the devils! And the Flying Tiger Battalion, an infantry battalion that is not outstanding in terms of numbers or combat effectiveness, turned out to be the one blocking the road by chance. Just like Guan Yu with a big knife on Huarong Road, he was just blocking the way of the Japanese army's retreat!
"Yaga! Yaga! The devil Shaozuo viciously slapped the two lieutenants and slapped each of them in the face. These two useless things, if they were a little more capable, they would have already led a large army to rush over, would they be able to get angry at both ends here?
"Chariot Squad, Charge!"
With the order of the devil Shaozuo, in the rumbling sound, four strange things of the Type 94 ultralight tank and commonly known as the bean chariot with a length of more than three meters and a height of more than one meter drove into the battlefield with dust. The devil is on the tank!
"Battalion commander, the devil is on the tank, what should I do?" Li Lishan's face showed a slight surprise.
