Chapter 124: Partition and Encirclement

The 3rd Brigade of the Japanese Army, which was responsible for flanking and outflanking, could not have imagined before entering the mountain that they would encounter such a difficult and cunning attacker. Just after the Japanese captain gave the order to abandon the pursuit, the attackers seemed to have really fled.

In the eyes of the Japanese captain, those cunning attackers should have pinned down their forces and prevented them from arriving at the intended attack position on time. As soon as he felt that the conspiracy of the attackers had been exposed, he was ready to march to the intended attack position with all his might.

But no one expected that the captain of the Japanese army, who had just let the troops rest and eat lunch, heard the sound of explosions coming from the camp. In addition to being frightened, he didn't care about continuing to hold the combat meeting, and hurriedly looked for a point to avoid artillery under the cover of the guards.

When the captain of the infantry group found that the attackers were on the hill in front of the camp and that the number of artillery was small, he immediately stepped out of the concealment point and gave the order to send an infantry squadron to pursue him, but the shelling seemed to have not stopped.

Every minute or two, four shells landed accurately in the valley where the infantry brigade was located. Even if a shell misses and doesn't kill a little devil, it still makes the scattered and hidden little devils tremble.

The reason for this is that the impact point of the mortar is inconsistent each time, and the shellers seem to be adjusting the position of the shelling each time. In this case, no one can guarantee that the next round of shells will not hit their hidden position.

Even if it's a mortar exploding around it, it doesn't feel good. If you are not careful, you may also be injured or even killed. For the little devils who went into the mountains to encircle and suppress, they also spared their lives, and naturally they didn't want to die in vain.

Seeing that the third squadron in charge of the pursuit had already rushed to the bottom of the hill where the artillery position was located, the captain of the infantry group who was watching was also very angry and said: "Baga! These damn sneak attackers, they're really arrogant! When I saw the pursuers, I didn't even hurry up and run! ”

At this moment, a squadron leader whispered, "Your Excellency, could this be a trap?" ”

As soon as the squadron leader's voice fell, the little devil who began to climb the mountain suddenly saw a violent gunfire in the jungle ahead. Countless bullets rushed in his face, and the little devil who rushed to the front didn't even have time to lie down.

"Enemy attack! Get down! Get ready to fight back! ”

Xu Sandao, who was in charge of blocking the attack, saw the little devil quickly lying down, and said very directly: "Grenadier group, grenade greet!" ”

The fighters, who were hiding in the bushes, took out the grenades they were carrying and threw them down the hill with all their might. As the grenades were detonated one after another, the little devils who came after him didn't dare to raise their heads at all, so they could only lie on the ground to avoid the grenades.

The Japanese captain, who was staying in the valley ahead to bear the shelling, saw the third brigade in pursuit, and was attacked at the bottom of the mountain, and immediately said: "Yaga! Fuck these guys, that's where they came from! Second squadron, sortie! ”

"Hey!"

Another force of hundreds of men quickly rushed out of the hidden valley, ready to rescue the third squadron that had been ambushed. When the second squadron attacked, Xu Sandao had already waved his hand and said, "Brothers, alternate cover, retreat!" ”

At the same time, Hu Biao and others who were located on the mountain also began to disassemble the mortar, and the soldiers of the guard platoon who cooperated with the operation dismantled the mortar into parts after dividing it by two. One person carried a part on his back, and the group ran towards another mountain.

The Japanese squadron waiting for support arrived at the foot of the mountain, and Xu Sandao and others, who ambushed the Japanese squadron, had already appeared on the mountainside. Looking at these ambushers trying to escape, the surviving little devils were naturally unwilling to let them go.

What infuriated the little devils the most was these ambushers, who stopped and shot at them after running for a while. Correspondingly, the little devils who pursued did not politely raise their guns to shoot back. The two sides also began to fight each other in the jungle.

When the chasing little devil unknowingly came to another big mountain, the ambush team that fought and retreated soon ran away without a trace. The little devil who had been worried about traps before, but now he found that he hadn't encountered the trick of asking for his life.

One of the squadron leaders looked at the lieutenant next to him and asked, "Do you want to keep chasing?" Judging by the appearance of these ambushers, they should not have time to lay traps. If they are allowed to run, it will be difficult to pursue them later. ”

"What about the captain?"

"Send someone back to report that I saw that some of them were injured and should not be able to run fast. At the moment we have more than 200 people, and the other side has only 34 people. Without destroying these troublemakers, it will be difficult for us to go to the battle site with peace of mind. ”

"Yo Breath! Then keep the pursuit! How about splitting into two ways and outflanking left and right? ”

After analysis and discussion by the two squadron leaders, more than 200 little devils divided into two pursuit formations and continued to pursue along the escape route of Xu Sandao and others. At this time, Xu Sandao joined another main platoon that had been waiting for a long time.

Looking at these panting soldiers behind him, Xu Sandao quickly said: "Platoon Commander Chen, take your people and go to the side of the mountain beam to lurk and stand by." Wounded brothers, quickly bandage, and the seriously wounded were immediately sent back to the camp. ”

"Platoon Commander Xu, what about the battle here?"

"Don't worry! The battle has just begun! Next, Platoon Commander Liu will take over the battle, and all you have to do is to stay at the lurking point and wait for orders. If you wait for the big army of little devils to come, you must remember that you can't act without permission, understand? ”

"Got it!"

"The battalion commander explained before, let's bring the little devils over first, the more little devils are attracted, the less pressure there will be on the camp. When the little devils chase too deeply, they want to withdraw at that time, and it is estimated that they will not be able to withdraw for a while.

And what we have to do is to wait until it is almost dark, concentrate superior forces, and encircle and annihilate the little devils who have been scattered. Not to mention annihilating them all, even if we can eliminate half of the little devils, we will make a lot of money this time. ”

"Yes, I remember! Don't worry, I won't act without an order! ”

After explaining the task, Xu Sandao looked at Platoon Commander Liu, who took over the task of luring the enemy, and said very directly: "Platoon Commander Liu, it's our turn!" Now there are more than 200 little devils behind us, striving to fight and retreat! ”

"Yes! Platoon Commander Xu, you just give the order! We are in three rows, and we must obey the command! ”

Although they are all platoon commanders, the platoon commanders of the Snow Shame Battalion all know that Xu Sandao is the battalion commander's confidant and the platoon commander of the guard platoon. With these records, I believe that it won't be long before Xu Sandao's military rank can be promoted again.

For promotion, Xu Sandao has little interest. In the final analysis, although they belong to the camp of the national army, they do not obey the command of the generals of the national army. They had only one commander, and that was Hu Biao, who was temporarily serving as the battalion commander.

The fact that soldiers carry guns and eat food and receive salaries doesn't seem to have much to do with them. The question is, what is the use of them on the battlefield at the moment, even if they have money in their pockets? Food, clothing, and use, Hu Biao has already covered it all!

Wait until Xu Sandao leads the new combat platoon and ambushes the pursuing little devil again on the side of the mountain. The little devil who was in charge of outflanking on the other side also hurried over to reinforce after hearing the gunshot, only to see the scene of the little devil jumping over the wall again.

"Yaga! Cowards, cowards! If you're a soldier, stop and fight us to the death!" ”

The little devil's violent jumping and angry scolding did not affect the retreating Xu Sandao and the others at all. I don't know that in fact, the little devils who have changed a group of people can only continue to chase hard. In the eyes of the little devils, they are not afraid of the pursuit war.

Whether it is physical strength or combat skills, they feel that they have an advantage. Continuing the pursuit, these ambushers will always be unable to run, and there will be times when they will run out of bullets in their guns. When they climbed over a mountain again, Hu Biao appeared.

Looking at the regrouped little devils, Hu Biao said with a wicked smile: "Brothers, get ready to work!" ”

Hu Biao, who had re-erected the mortar on the other side, fired again at the place where the little devils were assembled. Looking at the shells falling from the sky, the Japanese captain also jumped and said: "Baga! These damned artillerymen! And what about the second squadron? ”

I thought that these artillerymen should be being pursued by the second squadron at this moment. As a result, the second and third squadrons were in pursuit, and these elusive artillery appeared in front of them again.

Faced with this situation, the Japanese captain had no choice but to send troops again in an attempt to eliminate this annoying mobile artillery squad. Not long after, the Japanese squadron in charge of clearing was again ambushed and suffered heavy losses.

This time, the person in charge of the lure operation was Qin Tianyou, another general under Hu Biao, a guard squad and a combat platoon. Such a blocking team still makes the little devils who try to catch Hu Biao's artillery squad deflated.

When a few squadrons around him were dispatched out, looking at the slightly empty surroundings, the Japanese captain suddenly woke up and said, "Baga! Oh no, we're fooled! The Chinese army deliberately asked us to divide our troops, because they wanted to divide and surround us! ”

"Your Excellency, the Chinese army shouldn't have this strength, right? Earlier, on the battlefield of China, one of our squadrons in a defensive battle was able to deal with one of the main battalions of the China Army. The number of these harassing troops should not be many! ”

As for the worries of the Japanese captain, many little devil officers feel that it is unlikely. For the brave and good Japanese army, whether it is offensive or defensive warfare, the Japanese army can almost achieve a complete victory with the same strength.

It is said that the Snow Shame Battalion of this encirclement and suppression has only one main battalion. Not to mention that you need to face the attack of the Miura Brigade at this moment, even if you pull all the troops out, you won't be able to defeat the Third Brigade head-on!

It can be for Hu Biao, who successfully entered the mountain to encircle and suppress the Japanese army brigade at this moment, and divided it into three parts. Seeing that there seemed to be only about 200 little devils left around the Japanese captain, he decided to concentrate his firepower to encircle and annihilate a group of Japanese troops who were dragged into the mountains.

As for the other kind of Japanese troops who pursued in the mountains, Hu Biao, who had already exhausted the artillery shells he was carrying, led the soldiers of the guard platoon around him and began to lay tricky mines at the exit. Even if the little devil heard the gunshots, he couldn't rush to help.

After tying up his pockets, looking at the first team of little devils who were lured into the mountain, Hu Biao quickly said: "Combine the three ways and strive to kill these little devils in the shortest possible time!" Then turn around and go and destroy the other little devil! ”

"Yes, Battalion Commander!"

"Attack!"

Leading the four combat platoons that the guard platoon has been transferred, Hu Biao also has more than 150 troops at hand. Dealing with a little devil in a squadron or so, Hu Biao asked himself that he had a great chance of winning. If you don't fight now, when will you wait?
