Chapter 351: Lost
At the beginning, there were some miscalculations because the situation was unclear.
But as soon as they fought, it would directly leak to the bottom, and Lao Wang's attack was not as fierce as imagined.
This doesn't look like a posture to take down the torture village, but more like a bluff feint.
At this time, the devil commander suddenly realized that he had fallen into the trick of the Eight Roads (in fact, he thought too much about himself), and now he finally knows what is real and virtual, and virtual is real, and Chinese culture is really broad.
The target of the Eighth Road is not them, so the target is naturally the place where the gunshots were heard at the beginning, and it was not the Eighth Road bluff that was made, there was really an imperial army or security army fighting against the Eighth Road.
No matter where this team came from, he couldn't sit idly by, let alone watch Balu eat them.
Therefore, the command of the devil redeployed people to reinforcements, and a lot of time was wasted in the middle.
When Zhang Yunfei's department launched a charge against the devil, the two sides had already been mixed together, and the reinforcements from Xingzhuang had just been dispatched.
A squad of devils and more than a hundred puppet troops attacked their battlefield, and first exchanged fire with the reconnaissance platoon in charge of the guard and the company of the third battalion of the new second regiment.
The devil really gave face, and directly divided half of the troops to come to reinforcements, which also shows that the pressure on the devil from Lao Wang's battalion is still not enough.
When Zhang Yunfei decided to charge, he transferred machine guns and mortars, which were of little use in close combat, to the blocking troops.
Zhang Yunfei's third battalion can be equipped with heavy machine guns and mortars, which really wastes the strength of the old nose, where the regiment commander and political commissar are, they are about to break their mouths, and finally the regiment commander and political commissar agree to his firepower configuration.
Now the fire platoon of Li Da Tobacco Bag has been renamed the machine gun platoon.
The combat strength of the third battalion of the new second regiment is not good, and more often it is a problem of insufficient firepower, and with the support of the fire support of Li Dayan's machine gun platoon, they stubbornly admonished the fierce attack of the Japanese puppet army.
Even Zhang Yunfei was a little surprised, he didn't put Lao Wang's company into battle, firstly, because there was no tacit understanding between the two sides, and secondly, because their combat effectiveness was not good.
Therefore, Zhang Yunfei only let them take on the periphery of the guard and obstruction, and really didn't expect them to do anything big, and the expectation for them was to be able to avoid and delay the enemy's reinforcements for a while.
Unexpectedly, these guys are really fierce enough, let them block the reinforcements, and they really blocked the enemy's reinforcements.
Zhang Yunfei was observing the blocking battle in the direction of the reinforcements of the Japanese puppet army, and at the same time kept issuing orders, urging them to end the battle as soon as possible.
In fact, in this battle, at this time, there is nothing to say, under their previous intensive firepower, the devils of this squad suffered a lot of casualties, only thirty or forty people remained, and there were no devils with light and heavy fire support to cooperate.
No matter how strong the quality of a single soldier is, it is not much stronger, and it is impossible for Zhang Yunfei to be the opponent of a battalion.
After more than ten minutes of scuffle, he killed the last stubborn devil, and as soon as the battle on his side ended, Zhang Yunfei didn't bother to carefully check what the devil was escorting.
Since the devil attaches so much importance to it, it must be a valuable thing, and he ordered the soldiers to pack up all the things on the carriage and take it away.
Although the battle here ended quickly, the Japanese puppet army that came to support them attacked with the same ferocity.
The company of the third battalion of the new second regiment, they were able to barely block the strong attack of the Japanese puppet army at the beginning.
However, the longer the time dragged on, the more powerless they became, and the ammunition reserves of the Eighth Route Army itself were small, and the third battalion of the new second regiment was even less.
At first, everyone still had bullets in their hands, and they could resist it, but just those few rounds of ammunition were quickly used up, and it was difficult to block them.
Faced with this company of the 3rd Battalion of the New 2nd Regiment, which was passive and could collapse at any time, Zhang Yunfei did not order immediate support for them.
Fighting offensive and defensive battles in the field with the Japanese puppet army is not their strength in the Eighth Road, so they naturally have to make use of their strengths and avoid their weaknesses.
In the end, Zhang Yunfei gritted his teeth and ordered the troops to attack the flank of the Japanese puppet army that came to help.
There is no way, the current company has been stuck by the Japanese puppet army, and they themselves have been pressed and beaten, and they can't withdraw at all.
And now they are going to reinforce, that is the tactic of adding fuel, it is useless for them to recover the decline for a while, and they cannot afford the consumption of ammunition in this kind of offensive and defensive warfare.
The core of the Eighth Route operation is actually speed, and it is all about quick battles, and we can't afford to fight the kind of positional warfare that lasts for attrition.
So now he can only take the sword sideways, even if he can't defeat this Japanese puppet army, then he has to let them adjust their deployment to deal with it, which can somewhat counter the pressure of the team that blocks them.
However, Zhang Yunfei did not plan to have a hard encounter with this Japanese puppet army, although he felt that Lao Wang exaggerated the combat effectiveness of the Japanese puppet army here.
However, it is a fact that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese puppet army, especially the puppet army, is not weak, so Zhang Yunfei's goal is to prevent the reinforcements from calmly withdrawing from the battle.
Zhang Yunfei came to such a hand, and the devil who attacked and blocked the reinforcements head-on was immediately frightened, so he could only weaken the strength of the frontal attack, strengthen his flank, and prevent himself from being outflanked by the rear road.
The Japanese puppet army itself does not have many troops, and they still have a firepower advantage when they are concentrated, and once they are dispersed, they are not so terrible.
Seeing the devil's plan, Zhang Yunfei ordered each to not shrink the defensive line, adopt the method of alternate cover, and evacuate to the northeast.
And after this reinforcement found out that it had been tricked, it was naturally unwilling to let them retreat so calmly, and bit them to death.
The devil lieutenant was also helpless, they were here to rescue, but the targets that needed them to rescue were all wiped out before they arrived.
The failure of this mission is a little aggrieved, when has the imperial army suffered such a loss.
The imperial army generally suffers a loss, and immediately retaliates back, since this group of eight roads has not left, then don't leave.
Zhang Yunfei led the troops, trying to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese puppet army, but he failed to do so, this group of Japanese puppet troops, for the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army, that is really very proficient.
They know very well the habits and tricks of the Eighth Route Army, and all of their experiences are from the third battalion of the new second regiment, and it is no wonder that Lao Wang will hate his teeth when he hears about the Japanese puppet army in Xingzhuang.
Now Zhang Yunfei has seen that these Japanese puppet soldiers are really talents, all of them are like hunting dogs, and they are really good at pursuit.
Chased by this group of Japanese puppet soldiers, Zhang Yunfei was still quite depressed, and at the same time secretly rejoiced.
These guys are really brainless, they have to chase after them to the death, if they withdraw at this time, and then outflank the third battalion of Lao Wang's new second regiment, maybe they really leave Lao Wang's battalion behind.
Now that he has led this Japanese puppet army away, I hope that Lao Wang and they will not be as brainless as the devils, and they will all go by themselves, where is he still stupidly feintting, if they don't hurry up and retreat, it is really possible to be caught by the devils.
Alas, the battle is like this, it is completely beyond Zhang Yunfei's expectations, although they killed a squad of devils, but the battle plan is completely nullified, unable to achieve the expected goal, which is quite depressing.
