Chapter 1387: The Japanese Army Is Coming (First Update!) )
The remaining more than 500 puppet troops of the Japanese puppet army were all divided up by mountain artillery squadrons, mortar squadrons, and heavy machine gun squadrons, carrying equipment and ammunition for them, so that more devil soldiers could be liberated to serve as gunners and machine gunners.
As a result, there were only more than 1,500 devils left in the infantry that the entire attacking force could use to fight, and there was not a single puppet army.
Three minutes after the wing commander gave the order, more than 40 Japanese soldiers rushed out of the ranks one after another, lined up in a skirmish line as they ran, and quickly rushed to the checkpoint with guns in hand.
In their eyes, the Eighth Route Army must have been scared away by poison gas bombs, and the attack was just a show.
The battle seemed to be exactly as they had judged.
Everyone rushed all the way to the front of the level fifty meters without being attacked.
More than 40 Japanese soldiers ran faster and faster, and they all wanted to be the first to rush to the "empty" checkpoint and win the first credit for occupying the checkpoint.
"Dada...... Horn Horn ......"
The piercing gunfire broke the silence of the battlefield, and the dozen or so devils who ran fastest had not yet reacted, and their chests had been drilled into several bloody holes by the oncoming bullets.
The devil behind was blinded, and quickly lay down, trying to avoid the oncoming rain of bullets.
But the oncoming bullets were too dense, and a large part of them were powerful heavy machine gun bullets.
The piercing ability is extremely strong, and after killing the soldiers in front of them, the power does not decrease, and continues to fly forward along the original flight trajectory, shooting the soldiers behind them......
By the time all the living Japanese soldiers lay down, at least twenty corpses had fallen in front of the checkpoint......
The gunfire did not stop, and the battle did not end because the devil lay down.
The terrain here is too bad for them.
On both sides of the checkpoint are either high ground or cliffs, light and heavy machine gun mounts on them condescendingly shoot at them, and the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground are like live targets, being named one by one by the checkpoint garrison.
More than 40 Japanese soldiers participated in the attack, but none of them came back, and all died outside the checkpoint.
"Wing Commander, it's surprising that the Eighth Route Army in the checkpoint didn't run. Aren't they afraid of being killed by our gas bombs? After witnessing the killing of his subordinates, the chief of staff exclaimed with shock and bewilderment on his face.
The wing captain clenched the command knife and ordered with a murderous face: "Since these Eighth Route Army want to find death, then I will fulfill them." ”
"Murata-kun, immediately fire thirty poison gas bombs at the checkpoint and wipe out all the Eighth Route Army above."
"Hey!" Shao Zuo, who commanded the poison gas troops, shouted the order.
A minute later, a group of four gas bombs began to crash into the level. After another two minutes, the level was covered in poison gas.
The wing commander took out his command knife and slashed forward and ordered: "The first squadron of the second brigade put on a gas mask and rushed up, and the Eighth Route Army in the checkpoint was killed." ”
More than a hundred devils, wearing gas masks like pigs' noses, with guns in their hands, swaggered towards the level.
The action was clumsy, but because it didn't hit the block, the assault was fast, and it rushed out of the level in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, the corner of the wing captain's mouth involuntarily smiled, put the command knife back into the scabbard, and ordered very confidently: "The others will assemble immediately, and we will continue to move forward after the level is taken." ”
Five minutes later the attacking unit ran back a second lieutenant, standing in front of the wing commander, panting and with a very complicated expression.
"Sir, we have occupied the checkpoint in front, but there is not a single Eighth Route Army on it!"
"Nothing was found except bullet casings."
"Yaga!"
The co-captain felt that he had been tricked, and he was so angry that he scolded.
He drew his command knife again, and slashed at a pine tree beside him with anger, and the trunk of the wrist-thick tree was instantly cut into two pieces.
"Sir's anger!" The chief of staff hurriedly comforted.
"The Eighth Route Army above must have retreated when we fired the gas bombs, and although they were not killed, their retreat also proved that the gas bombs were effective against them."
"Ahead is the garrison arsenal we are looking for, as long as we kill there, they will have no way to hide, and sooner or later they will be killed."
The wing commander's face looked much better, and after inserting the command knife back into the scabbard, he ordered: "The troops continue to advance." ”
"Be sure to find the garrison arsenal before it gets dark and destroy it."
On the second checkpoint ten kilometers away, the commander of the eighth company found Li Hao as soon as he withdrew here: "Regiment commander, we killed more than 40 little devils at the first checkpoint, and we killed three and injured five. ”
"The devil is too cautious, and as soon as the test troops are killed, they will abandon the conventional attack and shoot poison gas bombs at the checkpoints."
"I led the team to evacuate the position as soon as I was ordered, and I didn't let the devils find out that we were also equipped with gas masks."
Li Hao replied with satisfaction: "It's good that I didn't find it, and when the devils come over in a while, we will definitely be able to use these gas masks to catch them off guard." ”
The commander of the eighth company did not enjoy playing at the first level, and immediately asked for battle: "What is the task of our eighth company?" ”
"The regiment commander can rest assured that although the troops have been on the road for two hours, the morale of the comrades is very high."
"As long as we rest for half an hour, we can fully recover our combat effectiveness, and then the devil will be killed."
Li Hao nodded and replied: "Don't worry, I can't miss you!" ”
After taking him to the commanding heights of the checkpoint, he pointed to a high ground in the northeast and ordered: "Take your people to lurk on that high ground and rest well." ”
"After the Japanese puppet army kills you, you don't have to participate in the battle at first, and when the troops start a counteroffensive, you will see three red signal flares, and then kill the little devils at all costs and fight them in a decisive battle."
With a gas mask, the eighth company commander's fear of devils and gas bombs had been swept away, and he replied with confidence: "Don't worry, regiment commander, we will definitely complete the task." ”
Half an hour later, the Japanese puppet army entered Li Hao's field of vision.
"Commander, the devil striker won't move until he reaches the front of the level, as if what are you waiting for?" Hong Linfeng looked at the more than a hundred devils who stopped in front of the checkpoint and asked.
"Wait for the gas bomb!" Li Hao replied with a calm face.
"They lost more than 40 people in the first checkpoint, and now they have a lot of experience, no matter whether we have troops in the checkpoint or not, they will bombard them with poison gas when they come up, and take the checkpoint with the least cost."
As soon as Li Hao finished speaking, the main force of the devil appeared.
Dozens of gunners rushed out of the ranks with mortars and shells.
Find a relatively flat ground and start setting up a cannon......
Li Hao knew that his judgment was right, and immediately ordered: "Leave a platoon in the Ninth Company to hide in several permanent firepower points to be on guard, wear a gas mask, and never be exposed unless the little devil enters the checkpoint." ”
"The others evacuated the checkpoint, and the artillery set up artillery positions five hundred meters behind the checkpoint, and all the artillery was aimed at the area between twenty and fifty meters in front of the checkpoint."
Hong Linfeng understood Li Hao's thoughts as soon as he heard it, and hurriedly went to arrange.
As soon as Li Hao and the rest of the Ninth Company withdrew from the position, four poison gas bombs fell from the sky and smashed behind them.
Four puffs of thick smoke came out of the shells and quickly filled the surroundings.
More than a hundred devil strikers who stopped in front of the level also moved.
Wearing gas masks and holding guns, they quickly approached the checkpoint in a line of skirmishers.
