Chapter 330: Watanabe's Decision (Second Update!) )
Two heavy machine-gun squads had just been removed from the roof when an explosion sounded behind them.
The last three fighters were blown up, and finally fell to the ground with a scream.
"Deputy battalion commander, a devil has been killed!" Zhao Wen, the commander of the fire company, shouted.
More than a hundred little devils, holding rifles and carrying crooked handles, appeared in Hong Linfeng's field of vision.
Hong Linfeng's eyes quickly became hot, and his eyes lit up and exclaimed, "It's just in time!" ”
"Listen to the gunshots, the battle in the village is almost over, they are coming, just in time to eat them together!"
"Independent company, firepower company, hold on for five minutes at all costs and we will retreat, bring the devil attack troops outside the village into the village, and then cooperate with a few main companies to eat them!"
Hong Linfeng was full of confidence, and Watanabe Osa was also holding back his anger and had nowhere to vent.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army blocking the entrance of the village still has at least four heavy machine guns and three light machine guns, and if you rush hard, the casualties of the attacking troops will be too great!" The adjutant reminded with a worried look on his face.
Watanabe Nakasa also saw several points of fire that suddenly appeared in the artillery fire.
With a frown, he ordered: "The artillery will concentrate all the mortars to up, and I will raze the position of the Eighth Route Army at the entrance of the village to the ground!" ”
"After the attacking troops occupy the entrance of the village, remember not to rush in, and then fight steadily into the village after figuring out the situation in the village!"
Shells smashed round after round at the entrance of the village, and stone walls and defenses were constantly blown down, burying the soldiers hiding in the corners.
Hong Linfeng's already frowning brows wrinkled even deeper at this time.
"Deputy battalion commander, the devil's artillery fire is too fierce, and the casualties of the troops are too great if they continue to hold on!" Zhao Wen, the commander of the firepower company, reminded anxiously.
Just now, he saw with his own eyes a heavy machine-gun squad covered in artillery fire, and then dumb fire.
Now that a minute has passed, there has been no movement from this machine-gun squad.
Zhao Wen has a feeling that this machine gun squad is over.
Under such heavy artillery fire, the heavy machine gun was also blown up.
In this way, there are only three heavy machine guns left in the fire company, which will directly turn into a fire platoon after a battle!
"Inform the troops to retreat now, we won't fight, just let the little devils into the village!" Hong Linfeng made a decisive decision.
"We will also enter the village, cooperate with the three main companies to quickly end the battle, first deal with the remaining devil remnants in the village, and then face the new little devils!"
Hong Linfeng led the team to suddenly appear behind the Japanese army and attack, and the powerful machine gun fire not only caught the Japanese army by surprise, but also brought a devastating blow to the devil.
"Deputy battalion commander, all the remaining little devils in the village have been killed!" As soon as the gunfire stopped, Zhao Wen, the commander of the independent company, found Hong Linfeng and reported.
A smile quickly flashed across Hong Linfeng's face.
But before he could speak, a platoon commander behind the hall rushed over: "Deputy battalion commander, the devils have occupied the entrance of the village, but they have not continued to attack the village, and they will not move after occupying a few courtyards at the entrance of the village." ”
"Didn't come in!" Hong Linfeng exclaimed with a puzzled expression.
"Then we were just killed by the devil with a cannonball at the entrance of the village, and the soldiers died in vain!"
Li Hao didn't know when he came over, and directly interjected: "They definitely won't sacrifice in vain!" ”
"If I'm not mistaken, the devil has realized that there is a problem in the village, and he has already guessed our tactics!"
"Then how are we going to fight next?" Zhang Yunha, the second platoon leader, asked anxiously as soon as he ran over.
"Hold your ground!" Li Hao replied with a serious face.
"The village is not the entrance of the village, this place is very big, even if the little devil wants to raze this place to the ground with a cannon, it is impossible to do it!"
"The troops are scattered and hiding in the village, the hole cards in the hands of the little devils are just those two, and when they finish playing their hole cards, they will continue to attack, and we will fight them again!"
"What I'm most worried about now is that the devils give up attacking us, avoid the edge for the time being, and quickly pass through the village, so that we won't be able to achieve our goal of inflicting heavy damage on them here!"
After the gunfire in the village fell completely silent, Watanabe Nakasa's brows tightened even deeper.
The adjutant reported with a solemn face: "Sir, the third squadron has occupied the entrance of the village, but not a single imperial army has escaped from the village!" ”
"The second squadron is finished!" Watanabe Nakasa judged with a calm face.
"I probably guessed that the Eighth Route Army was using the complex terrain in the village to lure the second squadron into the village, and then kill them with street fighting."
"Both the enemy and our troops are in the village, and they are fighting together, even if we have the advantage of artillery fire, we can't take advantage of it."
"But the Eighth Route Army hiding in the village can wait for work, and through its familiarity with the terrain, it can raid our troops entering the village from all directions!"
"It must be so!"
The adjutant was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that he shouted: "The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light, so our troops entering the village will suffer a big loss!" ”
"Sir, I suggest that the troops abandon the occupation of the village. All you need to do is take the courtyards on both sides of the road and ensure that the troops can pass through the village quickly! ”
Watanabe Nakasa had to admit that this was the best way to solve the problem at hand.
Avoid the edge for the time being, go and complete the tasks assigned by the peak first, and then clean them up when you turn back.
Watanabe Nakasa subconsciously wanted to agree.
"Sir, lowly opposition!"
At this moment, the squadron leader of the first squadron suddenly spoke.
"Name your reasons!" Watanabe hesitated and asked.
The squadron leader hurriedly replied: "I am sure that the Eighth Route Army hiding in the village has repeatedly hit our independent battalion!" ”
"It's hard to appear in front of us, if we don't take this opportunity to kill them, it will definitely be very difficult to find them in the future!"
"Also, even if we successfully pass through the village in front of us, the independent battalion will continue to slow down our attack by other means!"
"No one dares to guarantee that in the face of other means of resistance from the independent battalion, we will still have a way to kill them as smoothly as we do now!"
"Therefore, I think that instead of temporarily avoiding the edge, it is better to seize the opportunity and completely solve this opponent!"
"This way we will have one less strong opponent for the next attack!"
"We have already lost more than 200 imperial troops in the village, and if we leave like this, it will make people think that we Watanabe are afraid of the independent battalion, and we are sorry for the warriors who died in the village!"
Watanabe Nakasa's eyes slowly turned red.
The reminder of his subordinates made all he think about was the hatred between himself and the independent battalion, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and his fists clenched tighter and tighter!
In the end, he couldn't help but scold: "You're right, it's time to completely solve the independent battalion." ”
"Otherwise, they will always be active around us in our next attack, attacking us piecemeal and consuming us!"
"After entering the base area of the First Division of the Eighth Route Army, maybe they will cooperate with the Eighth Route Army of the First Division to attack us!"
"That's it, wipe out the independent battalion here, and then continue to attack the base area of the first division!"
"Now there are two hours left until dark, try to end the fighting within two hours. Rest for the night and move on tomorrow! ”
"Hey!" The adjutant and several squadron leaders immediately answered.
