Chapter 195: Embattled
The next day, I was woken up at one o'clock in the morning, had a hasty breakfast, and was ready to begin the rapid march. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, just as Xiao Mubai was about to set off, he suddenly received an order from the captain of the company, and the 210 highland attack mission was suspended, and he rushed to the direction of the airport.
The reason is to avoid the increase of casualties, and the scattered forces will become weak, which will cause the soldiers to encounter a crisis.
It was depressing, but the task had to be carried out.
As a result, the Charles Infantry Company moved again in the direction of the airfield.
Advancing in the darkness of the night, it was dark at one o'clock in the morning, and there was no moon overhead, and the soldiers groped their way forward. Fortunately, there is an emergency flashlight, so you won't step into a puddle or fall off a cliff.
In the early hours of the morning, the temperature was relatively low, much colder than during the day, and it was a little cold at the beginning of the departure, but after walking for a long time to warm up, it gradually warmed up.
There was a lot of moisture and dew in the grass, and the military uniform was wet during the march, and it was wet on the body until the morning, and I felt very uncomfortable.
The distance to the airport is much closer than that of the 210 highlands, and after a long journey through the grassy jungle, we finally arrived at the airport.
At this time, the sky was only white when the belly of the fish was revealed, and the time was just past seven o'clock.
Xiao Mubai stood on the top of the mountain with a telescope, and saw from a distance that an improvised airport was located there, with a few planes parked at the airport and not many garrisons.
Although the sparrows are small and complete, and the airfield is simple, there is no shortage of power plants in the tower, warehouses, etc., and it seems that the Japanese army is preparing to occupy Kuah Island for a long time.
The airport is not big, but it is also dozens of acres in size, and the runway is about to be completed, and there are North Korean laborers working on it.
Xiao Mubai carefully looked at the deployment of troops, there are exits in the east and west directions of the airport, which is the focus of defense, and the other north and south are relatively weak.
There was smoke rising from the airfield, and it seemed that the Japanese army was making breakfast, which was very harmonious, if the American army had not arrived.
"There are more than a hundred Japanese troops, and according to estimates, it should be a squadron, equivalent to our reinforced company. But most of the defenders were Korean laborers, not Japanese sappers in intelligence, and they did not have much combat effectiveness. ”
Holding the binoculars, Xiao Mubai said to Captain Staro next to him.
Staro asked noncommittally, suddenly with interest.
"George, how do you know about the strange formation of the Japanese, and why the defenders are Koreans and not Japanese engineers?"
Heh, Xiao Mubai was stunned.
The U.S. military really didn't know much about the Japanese army, just like the Japanese army suddenly attacked Pearl Harbor, and the Americans never had the idea of fighting the Japanese, so no one knew about the Japanese army's establishment or anything.
And Xiao Mubai's previous sentence, to be honest, is a bit out of line, at this time, there are really not many people in the US military who can clearly distinguish the Japanese army.
And what Xiao Mubai said later, this is not classified information just now, but for the US military at this time, these were summed up after the war, and they were not detected before the war.
This information, while not very important, is still not something that can be known by just one person.
If you talk too much, you will lose, Xiao Mubai knows that she must hide it, otherwise she will be exposed.
"I knew about the strange establishment of the Japanese army when I was at the military academy before. As for the intelligence that follows, it can't be called intelligence at all. ”
Xiao Mubai paused, then pointed to the garrison in the field and said.
"Japanese people are generally short, Koreans and Chinese are more similar, and their stature is taller than Japanese, which can be seen if you look closely. Also, the Koreans are wearing labor uniforms, not the Japanese army's khaki uniforms, which can be recognized by a closer look. ”
Xiao Mubai explained word by word.
Staro heard it and stared at the field closely, as if to confirm Xiao Mubai's statement.
After a long time, Staro nodded, gave a thumbs up, and stared at Xiao Mubai's eyes.
"George, you are very powerful, such a small thing was discovered by you."
"Hehe, thank you!" Xiao Mubai smiled shyly.
"Captain, the Japanese army has two junctions, and if we attack from the west, they may flee from the east, so I propose to surround the enemy and focus on deploying forces in the east to prevent the enemy from escaping."
After listening to Xiao Mubai's words, Staro looked carefully towards the middle of the field, and while watching, he thought that it was really reasonable, and confirmed that there was no omission, and then gave the order.
"George, Platoon C is deployed to the east, and the attack will start in ten minutes."
"Yes!"
The suggestion was heeded, Xiao Mubai was in good spirits, agreed loudly, and then led the soldiers forward.
One by one, the American soldiers surrounded the airport, Xiao Mubai was in charge of the east, and he wanted to sneak in the past, and then snipe the Japanese army at the commanding heights, preparing to cut off the devil's retreat.
Xiao Mubai led more than forty soldiers to lurk over, bending over and hunching over to avoid being discovered by the devils at the airport.
has been far away, but fortunately, the dense vegetation of Kuah Island can hide the body well, otherwise it would not be easy to lurk in the past.
As soon as they stepped into the battle position, the soldiers began to fall silent, waiting for the order to attack.
Seven minutes passed, and the airport was still peaceful, and the devil would not have thought that the US troops would arrive so soon.
Ten minutes passed, Xiao Mubai stared at his watch, and when the hour hand crossed the last second, he immediately ordered the battle to start.
"Fire!"
At the sound of an order, more than 40 guns in the whole platoon, automatic semi-automatic rifles, fired at the little devils one by one.
Gunshots rang out, and for a moment the surroundings became noisy.
The first gunshot rang out, and then the gunfire rang out, and the bullets poured down towards the devils in the field, and the devils fell to the ground one after another, suffering heavy casualties in an instant.
Not only did the little devil suffer heavy losses, but even the North Korean laborers on the side were injured by bullets, even if Xiao Mubai reminded him before.
The few little devils look for cover, ready to wait for an opportunity to fight back, but in the face of a hundredfold enemy, this is in vain.
The Japanese shouted angrily in an attempt to arm the Korean laborers and make them take up guns against the Americans, but few of them obeyed the order.
Soon, the Japanese army was in a desperate situation, and under such a sudden blow, the wrong number of devils were eliminated, and no one escaped.
Those who wanted to escape, whether they were Japanese soldiers or Korean laborers, fell on the way to escape and died at the guns of Platoon C.
The battle was not very difficult, it was a very simple siege and annihilation battle, the battle ended quickly, the American army won a complete victory, basically no casualties, and began to clean up the battlefield.
The battle was almost one-sided and the Japanese did not put up much resistance at all.
In the end, according to statistics, about 50 people were killed in the battle by the team that killed the little devils, and none of them surrendered.
The surrender was all Korean laborers, more than 100 of them.
Not only that, but the U.S. military also captured a huge amount of food, construction equipment, building materials, etc., the most popular trophies were hundreds of cases of Japanese beer, and a well-established frozen processing plant.
In short, this battle was launched by the US military, even if these things are not in the eyes of the US military, but this also means that the enemy has been defeated, which is the most important thing.
The first battle was successful, but the next mission soon came.
