Chapter 815: No Matter the Price (Second Update!) )

The only thing that made the platoon commander happy was that he had an advantage in the terrain.

The devil was in a hurry to meet the battle on the march, and many people were just lying on the ground, and there was not even a hidden object to use around.

The heavy machine guns carried by the army have not yet been erected because of the rush of time.

As long as this situation continues for another minute or two, the troops will definitely be able to rely on their firepower superiority to eat all the devils within 100 meters in front of the formation.

But the devil didn't plan to give him this opportunity.

In less than half a minute, the devils who were still alive at the foot of the mountain began to retreat.

The grenadiers, which they used as killers, also began to shoot, and the grenades were smashed on the high ground like money, covering the retreat of the troops.

"Stop shooting, pay attention to concealment, and the machine guns immediately move their positions."

The platoon commander was not stupid and immediately ordered.

The devil is too powerful, and the retreat is also as cunning as a monkey, constantly changing various tactical moves, so that everyone can't aim.

In this case, if you continue to shoot, you will definitely not be able to kill a few devils, and you may be targeted by the devil's grenadier, and you will lose your wife and lose your soldiers.

"Platoon commander, the main force plus the reinforcements suffered a total of 18 casualties, the local troops suffered nine casualties, most of them were killed, only five were injured, and all of them were seriously injured, almost losing their combat effectiveness!" The deputy platoon commander, who counted the casualties, ran over and reported.

The platoon commander was blindsided, and this number had obviously exceeded his expectations.

After reacting from the shock, he couldn't help but sigh: "The combat effectiveness of the main force of the devil is really extraordinary, at least one grade higher than the garrison. ”

"We had the advantage of the terrain and launched a sudden attack that only managed to draw with them."

"The devils will definitely use heavy firepower next, so the pressure on us will be even greater."

"Order the soldiers to be careful about concealment next."

"Choose a few more shooting positions for yourself, shoot a different position, especially a machine gun, and don't be targeted by devil grenadiers."

"There are also supplementary soldiers, so that the veterans are all watched, and urge them to shoot and hide, and they can't be delayed for a second."

"The name of the devil sharpshooter is not blown."

Less than five minutes after resting, the Japanese troops down the hill moved.

More than 50 devils lined up in a skirmish line, forming a half-encirclement and surrounding the high ground.

"Da Da Da ......"

Heavy machine guns, which provided fire cover, were the first to fire.

"Boom ......"

Mortars also joined the fight, and shells exploded on the roof of the high ground, sending up a cloud of smoke.

"Ready for battle......" the platoon commander immediately shouted.

At this time, the rifle in his hand had turned into a light machine gun.

In the first round of firefighting, a machine gun crew was unfortunately targeted by grenadiers.

All three machine gunners and the deputy shooter were killed by grenades, and the platoon commander could shoot machine guns and could only take over in person as a temporary machine gunner.

"Da Da Da ......"

As soon as the devil rushed to the foot of the mountain, the platoon commander pulled the trigger.

In the dense gunfire, the constantly beating muzzle instantly erupted a tongue of fire, and the bullet flew out of the barrel under the flames, and drilled into the bodies of the two devils in a fan.

The men who were still alive on the high ground also opened fire, and bullets rained down to the bottom of the mountain.

But the devil was obviously prepared, and the offensive formation was very scattered, and when attacked, he lay down and counterattacked.

Therefore, the results of the garrison regiment were very small, and only a dozen devils were killed in a round of firepower.

What's more, the devil did not choose to withdraw immediately this time.

Instead, through shooting, he took out the Eighth Route Army on the high ground little by little.

"Platoon commander, the devil's grenadier is too accurate, the heavy machine gun and a light machine gun have been destroyed, and the infantry has also suffered heavy casualties." The deputy platoon commander pulled the trigger and reported in a hurry after successfully killing a devil.

"What about our grenadiers? Let them fight back right away. The platoon commander's face sank and ordered.

"The devils killed two machine guns, this account must be settled with them, I decided to retaliate with two of them, and fight back now."

The deputy platoon commander shook his head and replied: "They have already started to fight back, but it is useless." ”

"The devils are too cunning, light and heavy machine guns are constantly shifting positions."

"Our grenadiers have just joined the army, and compared with the devil's professional grenadiers, they are too far behind."

"The two grenadiers had no chance of locking onto the target."

"Every time a grenade hits, they slip away, and it doesn't do anything except waste of ammunition."

"Boom ......"

The mortars equipped by the devils fired again.

The shell smashed on a gentle slope twenty meters behind him and exploded, and two subordinates were blown over on the spot, one of them did not move, and the other lay on the ground and squirmed. ”

The platoon commander's face became more and more solemn.

The casualties of the troops were increasing, and listening to the sound of gunfire, compared with the initial counterattack, there was already at least a third less firepower.

On the other hand, the Japanese attacking troops, except for the first time when a dozen people were killed and wounded, and then very few people were shot.

Everyone hides themselves tightly, and unless they shoot, the king of heaven will not show his head when he comes.

This meant that the longer the battle lasted, the more unfavorable the situation would be for the garrison.

The platoon commander quickly figured it all out, and although he was now five minutes away from the allotted half-hour, he still ordered decisively.

"One group stayed behind to cover with me, and the others immediately retreated."

"Let's take the path to the next mountain pass and continue to hold off the enemy."

"A squad prepares a few grenades to arrange tricky mines, even if this place can't be defended and we take the initiative to give up, then we can't let the devils occupy this place so easily."

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Soon, several explosions were heard on the hill where the platoon commander had just given up.

"Platoon commander, it must have exploded the deceit mine we arranged, but I don't know how many devils we can reimburse." The leader of the first squad behind the palace shouted excitedly.

A smile also flashed at the corner of the platoon commander's mouth, but before he could be happy, the deputy platoon commander rushed over with solemnity.

"Platoon commander, the casualties of the troops have been counted, and they are larger than we expected."

"The main force, the local troops, plus the supplementary troops, one hundred and thirteen people before the war, and now plus the squad that has just been withdrawn, there are still 69 people left, and there are several seriously wounded among them, almost more than half of the casualties."

The platoon commander's face sank again.

The opponent was too strong, and in less than half an hour the troops suffered more than half of the casualties.

If you continue to fight like this, you will have to explain it here if you don't get it in a row.

The platoon commander was uncertain and wanted to withdraw his troops and keep the remaining troops.

But as soon as the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back.

The last bit of reason in his mind kept reminding him: once the troops retreated, the more than 200 villagers in Dongzhuang would be finished.

As a soldier, it is my duty to defend my family and protect my family, even if I sacrifice my own life.

In order to protect the nearly 300 villagers in Dongzhuang, the troops did not hesitate to destroy even if the whole army was destroyed. ()
