Chapter 803: The Main Force Is Out (Second Update!) )
On the mountain road a kilometer ahead of the Japanese army, a unit was also on a rapid march.
But the total strength is only more than 200 people, not more than 300 people in the mouth of the devil scouts.
A very important reason for such a big error is that the Eighth Route Army deliberately did it.
Let the devil realize that he has strong troops, and then he will pounce on himself and create opportunities for other troops to surround and send reinforcements.
A figure hurried to catch up with the group, running all the way to the front of the group before stopping.
"Company commander, the devil is chasing after you, a total of a reinforced squadron, with two mountain guns, four mortars, and four heavy machine guns, all carried by mules and horses, and the speed is very fast."
The company commander did not stop at his feet, and ordered while rushing to the road: "The reconnaissance squad will continue to keep an eye on them for me, and report the situation immediately." ”
After saying that, he asked the instructor beside him, "How far is this from the blocking position we repaired last night?" ”
"Three kilometers!" The instructor thought for a moment and answered.
"It's still too late."
The company commander breathed a sigh of relief.
"We're going to fight the pursuers there, and kill them if we can."
"The devil has a cannon, and we have it too, not only more, but also more powerful, not without a chance."
"The troops speed up, guard squad, use grenades to arrange a few tricky mines, and slow down the chasing troops."
"After arriving at the battlefield, we still need time to set up defenses, especially artillery, and we must arrange artillery positions before the devils arrive."
At one o'clock in the morning, when the pursuers arrived at the blocking position, there was no movement around at all.
The concealed blocking positions also became more mysterious under the cover of night.
The barrel of the gun protruded from the concealed thatch, pointing at the Devil Scouts who were getting closer and closer in front of them, moving with their figures.
Fifty meters in front of the formation, the forward reconnaissance detachment was not aware of the danger.
"Bang ......"
The company commander decided to take them by surprise and decisively pulled the trigger.
The gunshots rang out, and the devil who was aimed at him fell in response.
Dozens of riflemen scattered in the position pulled the trigger at the same time, and at least three fighters aimed at one devil to hit.
The gunfire was dense and short.
The devil scouts are all elite in a hundred battles, but in this case, they also have no chance to fight back, and they watched as one or two blood holes were drilled out of their chests, and then they fell to the ground, dying.
"The enemy attacked, the Eighth Route Army was in front, kill them, stick to them." The squadron leader was like a hungry wolf smelling blood, brandishing his command knife and shouting with a light in his eyes.
Arriving at the battlefield, he was dumbfounded.
The eight corpses of the reconnaissance detachment were lying on the ground in various postures, but not a single shadow of the Eighth Route Army was found in front of them, and they did not even see the position.
Just now, I was thinking that as soon as I came up, I would use artillery bombardment to give the Eighth Route Army a dismount.
Now there is a sense of powerlessness all over my body, as if I threw a punch with all my strength and finally smashed it on cotton.
But he didn't lose his mind, and analyzed very calmly: "Listen to the gunshots, there was at least one platoon here just now, and it was only a few seconds after the gunshots ended, so the runaway words will definitely not disappear without a trace so quickly." ”
"They must be hiding right in front of us."
"A small squad will immediately attack and move forward, and find them."
"Artillery, heavy machine guns, immediately set up positions and provide fire support to a small squad at any time."
In the thatched trenches, every move of the Japanese army did not escape the eyes of the company commander.
As soon as the devil moved, he shouted with excitement: "Another little devil is sending him to death." ”
"There is a total of an infantry squad, this time everyone doesn't have to hide their firepower, when they hear the order to shoot, all the light and heavy machine guns are fired, and they will be killed in the shortest possible time, and if they can't be eaten, they will be hit hard."
"As soon as the devil retreated, everyone hid and avoided the devil's artillery counterattack."
"Especially the machine gun team, you must be the key target of the devil's revenge."
"Remember our principles of warfare, and we would rather not have weapons than save our lives."
"If the weapon is gone, it can be seized from the devil in front of you, and if the person is gone, even if the weapon is captured, no one will use it."
More than 40 Japanese troops approached the blocking position in a straggler line.
Fifty meters away, ten tongues of fire suddenly appeared in the grass.
Two heavy machine gun tongues and eight light machine gun tongues were lined up, and the bullets were intertwined into a large net like meteors, instantly enveloping dozens of devils.
With the bullets fired by the riflemen, in just two seconds, at least two hundred bullets collided with the devil's attacking troops.
The squadron leader was dumbfounded.
I didn't expect that all the targets I had worked so hard to kill were in front of me.
Then I also understood the fact that with such a powerful blocking fire, and it was also a close-range shot, a small team of more than forty soldiers, even if they did not die, would have to drag a layer of skin.
Reacting from the shock, he shouted: "Artillery, heavy machine guns, strike back immediately!" ”
"I'm going to cover the enemy's positions with artillery fire and blow them all to shreds."
"The second squad is ready, as soon as the artillery fire stops, immediately rush forward, strangle with the enemy, kill them if they can, and drag them if they can't."
On the other road that rushed here, more than 200 devils were also hurrying on the march.
They were still five kilometers away from the battlefield, and some artillery sounds could already be faintly heard.
The squadron leader was in a hurry. The sound of artillery coming from the battlefield was too dense, and the battle must have been very fierce.
Either the imperial army that participated in the war already had the upper hand and pressed the Eighth Route Army to fight.
Either the Eighth Route Army has the upper hand and is pressing the imperial army to fight.
In either case, you have to rush to the battlefield as soon as possible.
If it is the first case, if you go late, the imperial army participating in the war is likely to have completely annihilated the Eighth Route Army, then you will run in vain, and in the end you will not get any military achievements.
If it is the second type, it is too late to go, and the imperial army is killed by the Eighth Route Army, then he will have to bear the main responsibility for the heavy casualties of the attacking troops.
He didn't want either.
The best thing to do is to hurry to the battlefield.
Sitting in the passenger seat of the car, although the speed was already high, his mouth was constantly urging the driver to speed up, not thinking that he would be attacked.
Of course, he is not to blame for this.
Including Nakata Yama Lang, they did not know about the nine reinforced companies of the guerrilla zone lurker garrison regiment.
In addition to the three companies that have already emerged, the remaining six companies have turned into hunters.
And there was one just five hundred meters in front of him.
The pocket array had opened its mouth, just waiting for them to drill into it.
Commanding this ambush battle was Liu Senyun, the commander of the special service battalion, who wanted to avenge the Third Company with the lives of more than 200 devils on the road.
In order to swallow the opponent in one bite, he prepared two reinforcement companies with more than 400 people.
And there were three heavy mortars, four medium mortars, and twelve flying thunder guns arranged behind the positions.
There are also three oversized mines on the road, which are specially used to bomb the devil's armored vehicles.
