Chapter 275: Luring the Enemy Deep (Second Update!) )
"Bang ......"
A gunshot rang out in the woods on the left side of the mountain road, and the devil lieutenant who was walking in the middle of the group fell in response, a hole was punched in his chest, and blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly dyeing his uniform red.
"Enemy attack...... Dadada......"
Before the devil's screams could be released, the sound of dense machine-gun fire rang out.
More than twenty light and heavy machine guns were lined up, and bullets were fired from the muzzles at the same time.
In the blink of an eye, the flank of the Japanese puppet army flew over densely packed with four or five hundred bullets. And almost all of these bullets were concentrated on more than a hundred Japanese troops.
They are only baggage troops, although their combat effectiveness is stronger than that of many Chinese troops. But compared to the real field elite, it is still a lot worse.
Caught off guard by a surprise fire, there was no time to lie down and hide, just like a live target, it was swept into a hornet's nest by the bullets flying over.
In addition, their battlefield reaction speed was half a beat slower than that of the real elite, and more soldiers were killed and wounded in an instant.
In less than three seconds, a row of little devils near the left side of the mountain road was completely killed.
The devils on the right side of the mountain road also suffered more than half of the casualties.
Those who survived were lucky enough to lie on the ground quickly. But the bullets flying overhead were so dense that they didn't even have a chance to raise their heads, let alone fight back.
And even if they lie on the ground, it may not be safe.
Machine gun fire dominated the terrain absolutely, strafing them from a high position, with their backs completely exposed to the muzzle.
In the dense gunfire, there were constantly lying devils who were shot in the back, and then they lay on the ground motionless!
"The trumpeter blows the trumpet and begins to attack!" When the devil was almost dead, Li Hao seized the opportunity to order.
"Comrades, follow me!" Hong Linfeng took the lead and was the first to rush out.
"Surrender the gun and don't kill ~ Chinese don't fight Chinese!"
"Kill......"
More than a hundred fighters followed, shouting various slogans and rushing out, very quickly.
The preserved Japanese army was instantly drowned in the crowd of attackers composed of more than 100 fighters like autumn wind sweeping leaves. The living puppet army, as always, did not resist, dropped their guns and surrendered on their knees.
On the road, as soon as the attacking troops set out, the rapid artillery fire stopped after firing five rounds of shells.
Looking at the battlefield behind him, Captain Sato, who got up from the ground, had a very bad face.
If it weren't for the plan of the Eighth Route Army to divert the tiger from the mountain in order to protect the baggage ammunition, he would have wanted to kill it and return blood for blood.
But now he could only endure it, and he ordered with a frown: "Treat the wounded immediately, free up two carts, and pull them to Lingqiu County for treatment!" ”
"The corpses will be left where they are, and when we complete our mission, we will come back and bring them home!"
After saying that, Captain Sato turned his attention to the sortie troops that slowly disappeared on the mountain road.
Although the shelling is over, no one dares to guarantee that there will be no next one.
The best and once and for all solution is to kill them and solve this hidden danger once and for all.
There were two infantry squads of the Imperial Army, one company of the Imperial Allied Army, and it was still fighting in broad daylight, and Captain Sato was confident that they would be able to successfully complete the mission and withdraw safely.
The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.
The sudden sound of gunfire in the direction where the attackers disappeared made his heart chuckle, and a very bad premonition appeared in his mind.
"Sir, what a dense gunfire, at least twenty light and heavy machine guns are firing at the same time!" The squad leader cautioned.
"Bage Yalu, we're still fooled!" Captain Sato's face turned white again, and he cried out in pain.
"This is a trick that the Eighth Route Army is good at luring the enemy in, not diverting the tiger from the mountain!"
"The attacking troops are in danger, the real target of the Eighth Route Army is them, not us!"
"Heralds, immediately catch up with the attacking troops and let them retreat, I don't want to hear bad news that they were killed by the Eighth Route Army~
"Hi~"
The herald chased after him like a soldier.
"Da Da Da ......"
The increasingly dense gunfire in the forest made Captain Sato's face even more ugly.
Finally, when the gunfire was over, the herald, who rushed back in rough clothes, did not help him bring back the attacking troops, but brought back the bad news that he was so angry that he was about to vomit blood on the spot.
"Sir, the attacking troops were completely wiped out by the surprise attack of the Eighth Route Army, and the battlefield was full of corpses of the imperial army, layer upon layer, it was really miserable!"
"Dozens of people have also died in the Imperial Army, and the others are missing~"
"Also, all the weapons and ammunition on the battlefield are gone!"
"It's over!" Captain Sato exclaimed with a look of despair.
"More than half of the escort troops were killed and wounded in one battle, and there are still forty or fifty kilometers away from Lingqiu County, and the Eighth Route Army will definitely not let us go easily!"
After saying that, Captain Sato wrinkled his brows and fell into deep thought.
After a few seconds, his eyes lit up and he made a decision: "Ono-kun, you immediately take ten imperial troops to run to Lingqiu, and tell Watanabe Nakasa that we are being attacked by the Eighth Route Army along the way, and ask him to send troops to meet them!" ”
"Let's move on, march in the direction of Lingqiu!"
"In this way, we only need to walk thirty kilometers alone from Lingqiu, more than forty kilometers away, as long as we walk over and join the receiving troops, we will be safe!"
In the forest a few hundred meters away, Hong Linfeng was reporting to Li Hao the results of the battle just now with excitement on his face.
"Company commander, one hundred and thirteen little devils, ninety-eight puppet soldiers, all of them will be killed by us!"
"All the devils were killed, 19 of the puppet army died, and the remaining seventy-nine were captured by us!"
"By interrogating the captured puppet army, it is certain that the total number of Japanese puppet troops escorting ammunition is only more than two hundred!"
"Including a company of the puppet army, a baggage squad, and a mountain artillery squadron!"
"I think we can make a move, as long as we choose a good position, we will definitely be able to eat them easily!"
Li Hao has been waiting for this moment for a long time, and without a word of nonsense, he replied decisively: "Then fight!" ”
"Isn't there a mountain road five kilometers ahead that is suitable for an ambush? We're going to do it right there! ”
"A platoon with the greatest casualties, stay to watch the prisoners, take the captured and go to the assembly place to standby!"
"The others set off with me with enough ammunition, and hurried to the front of the devils to prepare the pocket formation!"
The Japanese marched at a high pace, with a total of nineteen baggage wagons and six mountain guns.
Despite the constant harassment of the platoon of guards, the five kilometres took less than an hour and a half.
However, this is enough time to prepare a pocket array for them independently.
In addition to the 27 light machine guns that had just been captured, all of them were filled with bullets, and they were lined up on the mountainside next to the road, with the muzzles of the guns aimed at the road.
Two heavy machine guns are arranged on the top of the hill, condescendingly, ensuring that the heavy machine gun fire can cover the entire ambush battlefield!
