Chapter 740: Revenge Plan
Lei Yunfeng ordered the machine gun battalion and the 15th battalion to set up an ambush west of the Sujiazhuang Artillery Tower, with the purpose of blocking Zhu Zhensheng, the deputy commander of the Japanese army who reinforced Qinshui, and luring the enemy into the ambush circle to encircle and hunt.
When Zhu Zhensheng received the order, he immediately convened a meeting of officers above the company level of the machine gun battalion and the 15th battalion to make arrangements for how to ambush the reinforcements on Oshima.
Oshima's squadron drove six trucks heavily armed to Qinshui, and when they found a ravine in the hills ahead, and on both sides of the road were steep slopes more than two meters high, and the slopes were densely wooded, the cunning Oshima squadron leader ordered the convoy to pass quickly.
When the first truck entered the ambush circle of the 15th Battalion, the commander of the 8th Company, who was responsible for luring the enemy deep, ordered six machine guns to fire the reinforcing enemy with the heaviest firepower.
The Oshima squadron, which was suddenly blocked by heavy fire, did not stop to resist, and ordered the soldiers on the truck to carry out a fire counterattack, and the truck quickly rushed out of the ambush circle of the 8th company and continued to move forward.
Niu Fakui, commander of the machine gun battalion, saw through the binoculars that six Japanese trucks rushed out of the ambush circle of the Eighth Company, and the trucks entered the mortar range at the fastest speed, and decisively waved his hand to give an order: "Order the artillery company to lock on to the truck target and open fire." ”
All the mortars of the artillery company suddenly whistled and flew out several shells, dragging out arcs and falling into the trucks of the Japanese army, and the continuous explosions destroyed the two trucks in front, and the four trucks that were moving quickly behind had no time to dodge, and collided with each other and were paralyzed on the narrow road.
At this time, the 7th Company of the 15th Battalion, which was ambushed in the second ambush position, immediately launched the most fierce fire attack on the panicked Japanese Oshima squadron.
The squadron leader of Oshima jumped out of the car and saw that the vehicle was destroyed, and the four trucks that collided with each other in the back, even if they could repair and move forward in a short time, could be blocked by the two destroyed trucks in front of them on the narrow road, and they could not pass at all.
Squadron Commander Oshima, who had experienced countless battles and battles, was not disrupted by two consecutive ambushes, and ordered the Japanese soldiers in the car to quickly get out of the car and counterattack the 15th Battalion set up in ambush along the halfway slope of the ditch on both sides of the highway with the most fierce firepower, and carry out the most frantic attack.
A small Japanese squadron took advantage of its excellent weapons and equipment and the advantage of being good at breaking through the siege to concentrate its forces and firepower to suppress the firepower of the 7th Company ambushed in the north of the ditch and cover the main force of the Oshima squadron to break through.
The cunning squadron leader Oshima led two squads of devils, under the cover of fire from one of the squads, finally succeeded in breaking through, and quickly occupied the hillsides on both sides of the road in front, and immediately surrounded the ambushed 7th Company from the flank, trying to encircle and annihilate it.
According to the deployment of deputy regiment commander Zhu Zhensheng, the commander of the 7th Company successfully set up an ambush to attack the fleeing Japanese squadron Oshima, and when he found that he had broken out of the highway encirclement and occupied the heights on both sides of the road, he quickly surrounded the 7th Company from the flank, and immediately ordered the troops to retreat to the depths of the woods.
Squadron Commander Oshima found that the two ambushed Shina troops were weak in strength and firepower, and immediately realized that this was the enemy's strategy to lure the enemy, and decisively ordered the troops to stop the pursuit and advance to Qinshui as fast as possible.
Deputy Regiment Commander Zhu Zhensheng discovered that the Japanese squadron of Oshima did not take advantage of the situation to pursue the fleeing 7th Company, but blindly entered the ambush circle of the 9th Company ambushed in the woods, and not only immediately changed the combat plan, but also ordered the artillery company to retreat quickly, and the machine gun company immediately entered the battle.
Yang Kai, commander of the machine gun company of the machine gun battalion, received an order to block the Oshima squadron, which was rapidly reinforcing Qinshui, with the most ferocious fire from the front, and ordered the machine gun company to use all the light and heavy machine guns to block the oncoming Japanese troops with the most fierce firepower.
The cunning squadron leader of Oshima led his troops to be ambushed twice, and although he had successfully broken out of the encirclement at this time, he did not think that the front would be safe, and ordered his troops to abandon entering Qinshui from the south gate through the Sujiazhuang Fort.
He led Oshima's squadron to dodge off the road as fast as he could, heading straight to the northwest, cunningly avoiding the ambush position of the machine-gun company.
Zhu Zhensheng found that the commander of this Japanese squadron was very cunning, and had broken away from the two ambush circles behind which he led the machine gun battalion and the 15th battalion.
The Oshima squadron, which was pursued from behind, quickly fled towards Qinshui while counterattacking with firepower, intending to break through the siege defense line of the Shina troops, join up with the Gaoben squadron that held on to Qinshui, and fight to the death with the help of the strong walls of Qinshui.
Squadron Leader Oshima resolutely gave up entanglement with the 15th Battalion, which was in desperate pursuit, and fled to Qinshui with his troops as fast as possible, but the 15th Battalion, which was biting tightly behind him, was in hot pursuit.
Just when the Oshima squadron was in a very dangerous situation, a group of scattered and disheveled Japanese puppet troops suddenly appeared in front, and when the other party found that it was a Japanese army that was rushing over, one of the devils rushed and shouted loudly.
The captain of the Oshima squadron did not know whether this chaotic force was a cunning Shina unit disguised as a disguise, and vigilantly ordered the troops to quickly find concealment as cover and be ready to fight at any time.
The ghost soldiers who ran shouted loudly: "Don't shoot, I am the commander of the Sakamoto Squadron of the Imperial Japanese Army who stayed in Qinshui City, you must be the Imperial Japanese Army reinforcing Qinshui, tell your commander quickly, I want to see him." ”
Squadron Leader Oshima saw a Japanese soldier running over and shouting that it was Sakamoto Shaosa, not only frowned and asked, "You are Sakamoto Shaosa, why are you wearing a military uniform?" Tell me quickly, where is your Sakumoto Shaozo now? ’
"Oshima-kun, I'm Sakamoto, don't you really recognize who I am?" The Japanese soldier Cao shouted and tore off the clothes he wore outside, revealing the Shaozo military uniform hanging inside, and looked at Squadron Leader Oshima and smiled bitterly: "I'm really Gaomoto." ”
At this moment, Zhu Zhensheng led a platoon of the vanguard of the 15th Battalion to chase after him from behind. He saw two Japanese soldiers standing nearly 100 meters in front of him, and behind one of them was a team of more than 200 people.
Zhu Zhensheng only found that Gao Ben led a straggler to suddenly appear, but he didn't expect that Squadron Leader Oshima had ordered his squadron to hide immediately, and at this time, the Japanese squadron that Zhu Zhensheng saw in his eyes actually stopped fleeing and stood facing it.
He lost his judgment for a moment and thought that this disrupted Japanese squadron was going to fight to the death with the 15th battalion led by him, not only arrogantly 'haha' laughed and said: "Bastard, this is your own death." ”
At this time, the three companies of the 15th Battalion basically followed, and Zhu Zhensheng waved his hand and shouted an order: "Immediately launch the most ferocious attack on the Japanese troops who were chased and killed by our 15th Battalion and fled in embarrassment, and we must completely destroy them." ”
Squadron Leader Oshima saw that Zhu Zhensheng led the 15th battalion in pursuit, and now he has joined up with more than 200 Japanese puppet troops led by Takamoto, and the combined strength of the two sides is no less than 500, and it is simply too easy to deal with a battalion of Chinese troops.
He immediately said to Gao Ben: "Gao Ben Jun, you have seen the troops chasing a battalion from behind, and now you and I are fighting together, we must wipe out this branch combat battalion here." ”
Gao Ben just lost Qinshui City, and escaped in embarrassment to gather the remnants of the defeated generals, intending to return to the wing to lead the team to recover Qinshui again, but he did not expect to meet the reinforcements of the Oshima squadron here, the Japanese commander who lost Qinshui, in order to retaliate against the 54th Regiment took the initiative to propose a revenge plan.
