Not long after going out, the machete of the lead used the walkie-talkie to send a message back, saying that there was a rout of the British army ahead. By the time Zhao Zhi and the other scouts caught up, a lot of British troops had already been gathered on the machete's side. These groups of British soldiers were all depressed, and some of the British soldiers didn't even have guns.

The goat frowned, "Didn't you say that Karaka was still resisting?" How did this fail? Zhao Zhi called Yan Shijun, Yan Shijun knew English, and Zhao Zhi asked him to find a few British officers to ask about the situation. Yan Shijun held a gun, stopped a British officer, and asked in English what had happened and where the British troops had come from.

The British officer stopped, and looked at Yan Shijun who was blocking the way with some blankness, "Karaka, we are withdrawn from Karaka"

"Karaka?" Yan Shijun grabbed the officer who was about to continue leaving, "Isn't Karaka still fighting with the Japanese army?" Could it be that it has already been lost? ”

The officer impatiently shook off Yan Shijun's hand and said casually, "We are outside Karaka, and Karaka has been surrounded by Japanese troops. What is the situation inside, I don't know, anyway, there are a lot of Japanese troops, and their numbers are like ants in the jungle. It's more than ten times that of us, dozens of times."

Yan Shijun let go of his hand, and the British officer continued on the road and retreated in the direction of Ledo. Yan Shijun asked several officers in succession, and the answers were the same. This defeated British force was guarding the perimeter of Karaka, and after being routed by the Japanese, it did not have time to withdraw into Karaka, but was routed all the way in the direction of Ledo. They don't know about Karaka's current situation, but they just say that there is still the sound of shelling on Karaka's side.

"No matter, let's go up" Zhao Zhi waved his hand, and the reinforcements who followed behind followed followed the retreating British army towards Karaka. The situation in Karaka already seems to be dire, and the tide of the battle is unfavorable for the expeditionary force. When they were in Ledo, Zhao Zhi and the others memorized all the routes needed to counterattack Burma on the map. If the Japanese army occupies the Karaka line, then more than 7,000 engineers and tens of thousands of civilians who built the road will be completely exposed to the guns of the Japanese army. Once the Japanese army blocks the Savage Mountain, then the Engineer Corps will be blocked out of the Savage Mountain, and countless supplies will not be able to enter Burma and the country at all, and there will be no way to counterattack Burma. Karaka is the premise guarantee for the construction of the road in the Savage Mountain, and the expeditionary force must take the Karaka line to ensure the smooth paving of the road.

The team continued along the mountain road towards Karaka, and the soldiers were also talking quietly in the queue, and Zhao Zhi did not prohibit the soldiers from talking privately when there was no danger. There were a few taps on the walkie-talkie, which was the cipher of the machetes and the scouts, and the Japanese army had been spotted ahead. Zhao Zhi waved his hand and made a concealed gesture, and the supplementary soldiers who had not yet fully adapted looked at Zhao Zhi blankly. "Hidden, hidden" Zhao Zhi, who was helpless, had no choice but to lower his voice and shout in a low voice to hide.

The ranks dispersed, and the reinforcements, led by the doglegs, learned to cut some branches and grow grass, and insert them into their steel helmets and uniforms to conceal themselves. A scout ran back from the mountain road, panting and running to Zhao Zhi, "Sir, the body was found in front, it belonged to the British army." Our captain has seen it, and said that he was hit by a 38 rifle, and it is estimated that there are Japanese soldiers nearby, so he told you to be careful."

"Got it" Zhao Zhi threw a pot of water to the scout and let him rest first. After calling Edward and Uncle Guo, Zhao Zhi spread out the map provided by the 114th Regiment on the ground, and Jiang Cheng also came over to see how Zhao Zhi arranged it. "In this way, the machete has already found traces of Japanese troops in front. We're still the same, uncle, you and Huang Mao, you walk on our flanks with riflemen and gunners. Let the old artillery walk in the squadron with those two grenadiers and grenadiers, and in case of attack, they will carry them first, and you should not fire until the Japanese are confirmed."

Jiang Cheng was obviously very dissatisfied with Zhao Zhi's plan that had been determined in just a few words, and interjected, "Battalion Commander Zhao, you arrange for the flank firepower not to fire, if the Japanese firepower is strong, then wouldn't we wait to be beaten?" Glancing at Jiang Cheng, Zhao Zhi didn't speak, put away the map, and ordered the team to continue to march. Zhao Zhi's disregard made Jiang Cheng very angry, he was also a regimental staff officer, but Zhao Zhi was so indifferent to himself.

"Battalion Commander Zhao, are you going to have a big problem like this?" Jiang Cheng chattered behind Zhao Zhi, which made Zhao Zhi very annoying. "Staff Officer Jiang, there are Japanese troops here, if you don't want to expose us, please shut up" Zhao Zhi stared at Jiang Cheng with squinted eyes, Zhao Zhi was very annoyed with this staff officer. I don't have any real skills, but the ability to entangle endlessly is very big, such a big voice, what if it is discovered by the Japanese army?

As he spoke, the scout who had been left behind suddenly made a gesture, fell to the ground, and in a few strokes slipped into a nest of grass. Zhao Zhi dragged Jiang Cheng down, covering his mouth tightly with his hand, Jiang Cheng was shocked by Zhao Zhi's sudden movements, kept twisting his body, and was honestly slammed on the butt of a gun on the stomach by Uncle Guo.

When the soldiers saw Zhao Zhi's reaction, they all immediately lay down. The grass swayed, and the scout crawled back and whispered, "There are Japanese soldiers in front, about a dozen, I didn't see any grenadiers, only a light machine gun" Zhao Zhi slowly climbed into the grass with the scout, crawled along the grass for more than ten meters, and a gentle slope appeared on the left side. There were more than a dozen Japanese soldiers on the gentle slope, apparently resting.

Zhao Zhi's men walked on the top of the gentle slope, separated by grass and shrubs, coupled with the drop of the gentle slope, the Japanese army did not find Zhao Zhi and them. Quietly retreated, Zhao Zhi gestured, took Edward and Uncle Guo in front of him, and told them about the situation. The walkie-talkie rang, and the goats and machetes with scouts had already spotted the Japanese troops, and they had gone around to the bottom of the gentle slope, just blocking the retreat of the Japanese troops.

"Let's fight" Uncle Guo carried his rifle, his eyes were full of eagerness, the reinforcements were coming, and they really needed a battle that was not big or small to boost their fighting spirit. "Then fight" Zhao Zhi waved his hand violently, since it was a battle to supplement the soldiers, then the supplementary soldiers should sing the leading role. Zhao Zhi decided to personally attack this group of Japanese soldiers with half of the reinforcements, and the rest of the soldiers were handed over to Uncle Guo, who rushed to the side to intercept the Japanese troops and prevent them from escaping from the flank.

The supplementary soldiers were lying behind Zhao Zhi, the dog and the steamed bun were close to Zhao Zhi, Yan Shijun was behind Zhao Zhi, and Uncle Guo had already strictly ordered the three of them to protect Zhao Zhi at all times. The dozen or so Japanese soldiers at the foot of the gentle slope were eating balls, frolicking a few words from time to time, and they couldn't understand what they were muttering. Unbeknownst to them, a group of Grim Reapers' guns had been aimed at them.

Zhao Zhi looked left and right, and the soldiers were all staring at the Japanese army with bated breath, probably waiting for Zhao Zhi's signal. Zhao Zhi moved the muzzle of the gun, put a Japanese soldier into the crosshairs, and pulled the trigger steadily. A gunshot rang out, and the Japanese soldier Zhao Zhi was aiming at didn't do anything at all, but a Japanese soldier next to him, Cao, fell headlong.

The dog next to him didn't forget to give Zhao Zhi a thumbs up before shooting, praising Zhao Zhi's good marksmanship and knowing how to fight first. Zhao Zhi used a telescope to observe the Japanese army and hide the embarrassment on his face. With the sound of Zhao Zhi's gunshot, the supplementary soldiers fired one after another. Garand is incomparable to the original German-style firearms of the expeditionary force, and the 8-round automatic reload eliminates the need to pull the bolt, allowing soldiers to aim better.

Locust-like bullets descended from the gentle slope and pounced on the Japanese who had not yet reacted. "Poof", "poof", "poof" bullets hit the flesh, splattering a mist of blood and taking away lives. The Japanese army's only light machine gun began to counterattack, firing at the place where the guns were burning on the gentle slope. Pop, snap, snap, blades of grass flew on the gentle slope hit by machine-gun bullets, and a few reinforcements began to retreat, they were too far forward and could easily be hit by machine guns.

Zhao Zhi saw their retreat, but he didn't say anything, just watched coldly, to see if the reinforcements really wanted to retreat. As Zhao Zhi expected, the few reinforcements withdrew from the dangerous range of the machine guns, and they continued to retreat until they withdrew from the grass where Zhao Zhi and them were ambushed.

Zhao Zhi can't take care of them now, let them go for the time being. "Boom" "Boom" The grenadier of the old cannon sounded, and the old gun, known as the strongest grenadier, did not disappoint Zhao Zhi, but two grenades smashed over, and the light machine gun of the Japanese army flew up with the smoke, and when it landed again, it was already a pile of parts.

"Submachine gun, press down" Zhao Zhi kicked a rifleman who was about to charge to the ground, it was better to charge with a submachine gun, Zhao Zhi didn't want to increase unnecessary casualties. Dozens of submachine gunners rushed down the gentle slope with a shout, and the old cannon looked at the submachine gunners who rushed down with his mouth wide open, "Deflated calves, those guns in your hands are not sticks, shoot them, they are all stupid roe deer" The old cannon shouted at the submachine gunners with his mouth wide open.

The guys who rushed down the hill with submachine guns didn't know that they were charging with guns, and the few Japanese soldiers who survived certainly would not let go of such an opportunity, and they shot back one after another, and several submachine gunners who rushed in front were knocked down, covering their wounds and screaming on the grass. "It's a, dozens of people were actually suppressed by a few little devils" A gust of wind ran past the lying submachine gunners, the submachine gun in Zhao Zhi's hand clicked, "Cover, cover" Yan Shijun shouted, and also rushed down behind Zhao Zhi with a submachine gun.

"This dog's day, but he will behave in front of the chief" The dog scolded Yan Shijun, holding a sniper rifle to provide fire cover for Zhao Zhi. There were only a few Japanese troops left at the bottom of the slope, and the two submachine guns of Zhao Zhi and Yan Shijun were enough for them, not to mention that there were rifles of dogs and steamed buns in the back. Just like picking vegetables in their own backyard, Zhao Zhi and Yan Shijun easily ran across the bottom of the small slope. After the dense rain of bullets formed by Zhao Zhi and Yan Shijun's submachine guns, there was only one living Japanese soldier left at the bottom of the slope, which Zhao Zhi deliberately left.

This place is not far from Karaka, this group of Japanese soldiers was eating a group just now, and they should have sent out a reconnaissance team, maybe from their mouths, Zhao Zhi can learn something about Karaka. The current battle situation in Karaka is unknown, Zhao Zhi doesn't want to venture into it, if it is really like the British army he met on the road said, there are many Japanese troops, then Zhao Zhi's more than 300 people are only enough to stuff the teeth of the Japanese army.
