Chapter 131: Co-Captain, Be Careful!
When the infantry wing first arrived, Hu Biao was afraid that he would not dare to attack the opponent's camp at night. But during the day, the artillery squadron of the Japanese army was almost wiped out in the mountains. This means that at this moment the infantry wing has no artillery available.
Before the shelling began, Hu Biao demanded that the first three rounds must be fired in the shortest possible time. Then the artillery moved its position in case of a possible artillery counterattack by the imps. As it turned out, it turned out that this did not happen.
After emptying out the 10 boxes of special ammunition he carried, Hu Biao immediately ordered six artillery pieces to form a group and adjust the angle and position of the shelling by himself. The Japanese camp shrouded in yellow smoke launched a free artillery bombardment, completely blowing up the camp of the little devils.
Anyway, none of the shells brought on the road in the later period were moved, and the shells that were moved to the artillery position at the moment were all wiped out according to Hu Biao's meaning. It is rare to have this kind of actual combat opportunity, and Hu Biao also hopes to improve the artillery level of the soldiers of the guard platoon.
Seeing that the little devil who ran out of the barracks had already exchanged fire with the blocking troops, Hu Biao also said in a timely manner: "Yuan Qi, transfer two groups of artillery to support the battalion and deputies." This black light blinded the flames, just in time to provide illumination for the soldiers with cannonballs. ”
"Yes, Battalion Commander!"
Although Hu Biao was the commander of the shelling, after the shelling ended, Hu Biao handed over the command to Sun Yuanqi, who was reduced to an artillery platoon directly under the battalion. In the later process of the transfer of troops, Sun Yuanqi still served as the artillery commander.
The previous shelling scene really made Sun Yuanqi feel excited. Once upon a time, the little devils also relied on the advantage of artillery fire to raid the positions and camps of the anti-Japanese war troops at night. And this time, there is finally a chance to let the little devil taste this taste.
Handed over all the mortars to Sun Yuanqi and the artillery under his command, looking at the reassembled guard platoon, Hu Biao quickly said: "In order to reduce the pressure on the blocking troops, I will take you around the vicinity of the devil's camp, do you dare?" ”
"Dare!"
"Good! The guard platoon, there must be this kind of domineering, go! ”
Under the leadership of Hu Biao, the group quickly detoured from the rear of the blocking position to the edge of the river. From the edge, towards the chaotic Japanese camp ahead, several crossbowmen were still at the front of the line.
The leader is, unsurprisingly, the battalion commander Hu Biao. The soldier who had just joined the guard platoon was also surprised: "Squad leader, how can you let the battalion commander be the vanguard?" Isn't that dangerous? ”
"In the guard platoon, every time he charged, the battalion commander rushed to the front of the line. Although it was dangerous, the battalion commander insisted on it. With him as a pioneer, we can also avoid some dangers in advance and be safer. ”
According to common sense, Hu Biao, as the supreme commander, should not be the vanguard at all. The problem is that Hu Biao doesn't want to stay behind and direct the battle. Going to the front line to kill the enemy with your own hands will make Hu Biao enjoy more fun in battle.
On the battlefield, danger is everywhere. There is not much difference between being on the front line and staying behind. In Hu Biao's opinion, if the king of Hades really wants him to die in the third watch, he will definitely not keep him until the fifth watch. Fighting a war is a matter of hanging a belt on your head.
The most important thing is that compared with the actual combat experience of other soldiers, with the combat experience of special forces and mercenaries in his previous life, Hu Biao is more experienced than other soldiers in predicting danger and avoiding danger.
Another point is that Hu Biao's night vision ability is stronger than that of other fighters. Night vision is also important in night combat conditions. If the danger can be detected in advance, Hu Biao can also solve it in time and provide safety protection for the soldiers around him.
His life is his life, and the lives of these warriors are naturally also his life! There are high and low positions, but there is no high or low life!
When Hu Biao led the guard platoon to prepare for a melee raid, the rest of the Japanese infantry wing in the camp also fell into chaos. The sound of coughing and screaming, accompanied by the sound of explosions from time to time, turned the entire military camp into a ghost domain.
The commander of the infantry wing, who was wearing a gas mask, listened to the fierce gunfire coming from the front of the barracks, and said in disbelief: "Baga! How is this possible? Could it be that a large army is coming? ”
Miura Shinpei, who was also awakened by the shell, stood beside the Wing Captain and said worriedly: "Your Excellency, the military camp is too dangerous, let's withdraw first!" Now that the special smoke has spread, we should not stay in the camp for a long time! ”
"Miura Shaosa, immediately blow the trumpet and gather the troops. What kind of system does this mess become? ”
"Hey!"
In the face of the reprimand of the co-captain, Shinhei Miura wanted to say that it was useless to blow the trumpet and assemble. In this situation, many soldiers who could not find gas masks had already rushed out of the barracks as soon as possible, and many even ran to the river.
As a result, it is obvious that most of these little devils who ran to the river fell into the mud by the river in a panic. Some of them woke up and climbed ashore again after the icy river water had passed, not daring to go further into the river.
The rest either ran to the rear of the barracks, an area that was not yet shrouded in special smoke. All in all, the entire barracks was completely blown up, and even if Miura Mahei tried desperately to blow the whistle, there were not many troops who could maintain their composure.
Looking at the troops that had finally been assembled, the infantry wing commander quickly said: "I looked at it earlier, and the special smoke is blowing behind us, and we must rush forward against the wind." Rushing out of the smoke zone, we don't have to worry about the threat of specialty smoke.
But in front, there was an unknown number of Chinese troops to block it. If we want to break out of the encirclement, we must break through the opponent's blocking position. If you run to the back, it is difficult to have a chance to escape. Hold out until dawn and we'll be victorious! ”
"Hey!"
Although he wanted to persuade the wing commander to break through in the direction of the downwind, he would inevitably encounter a large number of blocking troops. But in this case, Miura Mahei didn't dare to speak, so he could only cover the captain of the infantry wing and lead the assembled troops to rush out of the barracks.
During this period, the troops lying in ambush on the remaining sides of the Japanese army also began to exchange fire with the little devils who scattered and fled. Hearing the gunshots coming from around the barracks, all the little devils who were ready to break through were in a heavy mood.
The only place where no gunfire could be heard was by the river on the side of the camp. The question is, in such cold weather, even if you swim across the river and escape fortunately, you are afraid that you will inevitably get seriously ill, and what should you do after dawn?
Seeing a large number of Japanese troops rushing out of the barracks and coming towards the position that they were responsible for blocking, Xu Mingzhi, who was staying on the position, also said in a timely manner: "Brothers, cheer up, the little devil has come out!" Hold on, you must not let the little devil escape. ”
While cheering up the soldiers in the trenches, Xu Mingzhi quickly came to the artillery position not far away, pointed to the group of little devils who rushed out of the smoke area and said, "Yuan Qi, concentrate the artillery fire and plow those little devils!" ”
"Don't worry, battalion deputy! Earlier I only used two sets of artillery, and the rest of the mortars didn't move! When the little devil rushes into the explosion zone, I will give the order for an artillery bombardment, and this shell will be smashed, but I am afraid that the little devil will not be able to bargain. ”
"Good! Remember, the shelling must not stop. Otherwise, with only three and four companies, it would be difficult to stop so many little devils! ”
"Understood! Just look at it! ”
After explaining to Sun Yuanqi, Xu Mingzhi returned to the position and told the soldiers at the forefront that they must hold on. The fighters responsible for blocking the two wings must also cooperate well and go all out to encircle and suppress the little devils who are trying to break through.
At this time, Hu Biao, who was searching along the river, soon saw several little devils fleeing in a hurry in his sight, and immediately lowered his voice and said, "There is a situation!" The people in the back quickly dispersed and squatted! Crossbow squad, follow me! ”
After issuing the battle order, Hu Biao led several selected crossbowmen and quickly advanced. When these little devils entered the firing range, Hu Biao immediately said: "Shoot!" ”
With the crossbow arrows being fired, several little devils who were looking for a way to break through were quickly shot by the crossbow arrows. While falling to the ground, looking at the screaming little devil, the crossbowman stepped forward and took out his saber to slaughter him.
Waiting for the other soldiers to catch up, Hu Biao also said in a timely manner: "It seems that these should be small groups of routs of little devils, who are trying to break through from the river." Search and advance in battle formation, and kill the little devil as soon as you find it! ”
"Battalion commander, if you use a gun, will it alarm the little devils nearby!"
"Don't worry! Even if the little devils heard the gunshots, they would only guess that someone was blocking their breakout force. The real main battlefield should be the position that the battalion deputy is responsible for, and there should not be many little devils on our side.
Even if the little devils come, are we afraid that they won't succeed? In terms of firepower, we are much stronger than the little devils, and under melee conditions, if you want to break through from us, it is wishful thinking. Spread out in battle formation, out! ”
Hu Biao, who still held the bow and crossbow in his hand and had a submachine gun hanging in front of him, continued to lead the guard platoon forward to search and advance. The further you go, the more little devils you encounter. In the face of these scattered little devils, the guard platoon naturally will not miss the opportunity to hunt.
And at this moment, the commander of the Japanese infantry wing, who led the main force to break through, looked at the mortar shells that suddenly fell from the sky, and said in shock: "Baga! Is the sneak attack on our troops the main force of the Chinese army? ”
Although there were suspicions that the troops that attacked them at night were most likely the rout troops hidden in the mountains. But the commander of the infantry wing still found it hard to believe that a prisoner of war force of less than 1,000 men dared to attack his camp at night.
Even though the infantry wing suffered heavy casualties during the day, a full infantry battalion remained in the camp. In a head-to-head confrontation in the field, how could it be his opponent with a mere group of routs?
Regardless of whether the commander of the infantry wing believed it or not, with wave after wave of shells smashed into the breakout team, the troops that had finally gathered were blown up in scattered places again. If you can't form an effective attack formation, how to break through next?
When Miura Mahei was covered by the officers of his brigade to avoid artillery fire, he saw the scattered troops and immediately said: "Quick, move closer to the wing commander, the troops cannot be separated." Find the Wing Commander, we need to gather more troops to break out together. ”
Just as Shinpei Miura was trying to join the wing commander, the infantry wing commander, who also ordered the officers around him to gather his troops, saw a mortar shell falling from the sky as soon as he looked up. And the adjutant next to him also saw this horrific scene!
"Co-Captain, be careful!"
At the same time as the wing commander was knocked down, the shell fell to the ground and exploded. The commander of the Japanese wing, who fell to the ground, just felt a punch in his chest, and then felt as if something had been drilled into his head.
Realizing that it was shrapnel, the infantry wing commander began to convulse uncontrollably in his body. Without waiting for the officers around him to arrive, the commander of the infantry wing, who stopped convulsing, finally swallowed the last breath of blood blocked in his throat!
