Chapter 307: The Strongest Opponent

At this point, an ambush battle turned into an encounter.

The enemy and our armies quickly judged the strength of their opponents.

A company of Chinese troops, in cornfields and on the roads, formed several small positions to confront the enemy.

Relying on the natural ravines, woods, cornfields, grasses and bushes on the edge of the fields, they concealed themselves on one side and fired at the Japanese troops on the other.

The emphasis is on throwing shells.

Morita immediately observed with a telescope and smiled coldly.

In his concept, how could a squadron of imperial troops be wiped out by the Chinese army?

What is the combat effectiveness of the imperial army, what weapons and ammunition, and what level is the Chinese army?

A Japanese infantry squadron can flatten an infantry battalion of the Chinese army and defeat an infantry regiment!

The Japanese were well-trained, and they quickly entered the combat position, shooting with a relaxed and measured pace.

An officer expressed concern: "Captain, there is an ambush in China, and the weapons and ammunition are very powerful, they must have robbed our imperial army, we can't be sloppy!" ”

Morita glanced at him, a little warrant officer, how could he be so arrogant and talk about strategic thinking issues in front of the captain?

"Hakuda-kun, you set off with your team, detour from the left flank, be sure to surround the enemy and destroy it, and escape an enemy, it's your responsibility!"

Warrant Officer Hakuda swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, and scolded his mother directly in his heart.

Because, he understands the power of the Chinese army.

He was originally stationed in the area of Huaibei County, and he also participated in the Battle of Black Wolf's Mouth, and he knew that the Chinese army was unusually powerful in this area.

Captain Morita was later mobilized from other places.

Hirota turned out to be the captain of the second lieutenant squad, because the Japanese army in this area was defeated continuously, and his troops also suffered heavy losses, so he was punished and his rank was reduced. Therefore, Morita despised him in his heart.

The Japanese superiors assigned Botian to Morita because they wanted to use an officer who was familiar with the local situation as a guide, and he had good intentions.

However, Morita Gang participated in the Japanese sweep in the northeast, inflicted heavy losses on a group army of the Guofu group, and won a brilliant victory.

Hakuda waited for a moment, hoping that Morita would change his mind, until he frowned, and then he knew that there was no chance: "Hayi!" ”

With a feeling of grief and indignation, Hirota took his squad and set out from the left flank to outflank the Chinese army.

In the corn field, the endless corn is all out of the sky cherry blossoms, embroidered with ears, and the wide green leaves are mixed with each other, taller than people, and a person, especially the Japanese army, gets into this kind of green yarn tent, which is completely undetectable.

Some soldiers of the Chinese army observed the enemy situation with binoculars on a nearby tree, commanded mortars and grenadiers to bombard the devils, and saw Botian leading dozens of devils to the east to drill the camp, and immediately called the police.

While he was talking, the Japanese soldiers had already noticed the man in the tree, and the three soldiers shot together and knocked the Chinese soldier down.

It's a weird situation.

Some Japanese officers and soldiers were very careful when attacking, and the thick and dense green gauze tent always made people daunting and inexplicably frightened. The Japanese army was no exception.

Morita didn't think so, his blood was boiling, and he wanted to direct a brilliant victory again, last time, more than ten days ago, he made a detour with a squadron, and blocked the retreat of a brigade of the Chinese army, so that the Japanese army almost completely annihilated the Chinese army, after the war, he was commended and promoted from lieutenant to lieutenant.

He felt that a squadron plus some puppet troops could completely push the opposing Chinese army.

Ambush the Imperial Army? It's really full!

Morita ordered to intensify the battle: "The brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, this is a truth that everyone in China knows, but the people of China are too weak, we, the soldiers of the empire, let's go!" ”

Morita himself brandished his saber and charged forward.

Supported by three mortars and ten grenadiers, and with the power of three heavy machine guns and three machine guns, the Japanese launched a silent charge without shouting.

This kind of corn field is the best place.

The Japanese army has always been good at sneak attacks and good at using obstacles to hide themselves.

Morita also participated in the battle of Nanyuan, he was a member of the special squad at that time, passed from the corn field, sneaked up on the retreating vehicles of the Chinese army, and killed a major general division commander of the Chinese army!

It was when the Pingjin War first broke out, and they crushed the 29th Army.

The Japanese machine guns and heavy machine guns were very powerful, with a fast rate of fire and great power, especially the 20 mm caliber machine guns, although they were bulky, once they were erected, they were very powerful.

Both sides fought for several minutes.

The defeat of the Chinese army.

They don't have heavy machine guns and machine guns, all of them are still light weapons, rifles, light machine guns, grenadiers and mortars are not much, this kind of guy who can't aim accurately, the Japanese army trains very hard, can master it very well, the Chinese army is a group of mud legs, a large number of illiterate soldiers, new recruits, it would be good to be able to fight out.

The Japanese suffered more than a dozen casualties, and the Chinese army suffered more than 30 casualties in one company.

Seeing that the casualties were heavy, the company commander immediately led the personnel to retreat.

This is Yang Chaoran's order, if you can ambush, you can ambush, if you can't ambush, just confront it, and test the enemy's strength with firepower.

It has been found out that the enemy is very strong, and our army is not an opponent.

One Japanese machine gun was topped with several grenadiers and mortars.

They quickly retreated.

Morita was in a cornfield, and he could sense the movement of the Chinese army and immediately chased after him.

The Japanese army was like a pack of hyenas, shuttling wildly through the cornfields, chasing after them.

The former caution was quickly forgotten by Captain Morita as the battle unfolded.

The Japanese army is really powerful, very strong, not afraid of death, accurate shooting, powerful charge, tacit tactical understanding, fierce firepower, if the confrontation under normal circumstances, the two companies of the Chinese army are indeed not opponents, I am afraid that after an hour, they will be completely annihilated!

The Chinese troops retreated, and some of the soldiers who could not retreat were caught up by the Japanese and stabbed to death with bayonets, or shot with bullets, and killed.

During the retreat, the Chinese army lost a dozen more people in a company.

Eventually, the forward company of the Chinese army withdrew to the ambush site of a company of our army to the west.

On the one hand, they shouted and deliberately pretended to attract devils to chase and kill, and on the other hand, they also reminded the troops in the ambush over there to prepare to attack the enemy, and also reported to the commander-in-chief Yang Chaoran.

Yang Chaoran immediately led a reserve team and rushed to the west.

However, the Japanese army chased and chased, so they stopped chasing.

Captain Morita ordered to flip.

The Japanese troops then converged and walked towards the Hamura stronghold.

For the sake of safety, the Japanese army stretched the troops and divided them into three echelons, plus the puppet army, with a total strength of more than 350 people, and entered the stronghold.

Reinforcement of the Hamura stronghold, a complete success!

The Japanese also killed and wounded more than 40 Chinese soldiers, captured four of the wounded, and after a little interrogation, they were beheaded on the top floor of the artillery tower of the Yucun stronghold, and their heads were hung on high poles.

After Yang Chaoran arrived in the west, he didn't see the enemy coming, so he realized that he had miscalculated.

Everyone then saw the Japanese puppet army enter the stronghold, show off their might, and behead the captured personnel of our army.
