762. Hold the hill first

Now Matsuda is disgusted with this Oda, why is he so stupid, he can't even see such a dazzling mountain, and he is still pulling infantry and cavalry here, and he deserves to die so many people.

But Matsuda now has a request for Oda, so he can only put away his disdainful expression, pretending not to know about it, and appropriately praising Oda, saying that he did a good job and stopped people.

Matsuda's intention was that Oda's men would take the lead and test the opponent's firepower on the mountain, and Oda sent people to rush to the hill on the slope of Wushan in order to appease Matsuda and disregard the life and death of his own men.

In the gap just now, the three dogs and the bamboo pole inspected this hill, strictly speaking, this hill can't be said to be a mountain, just a small mountain bag.

The hill is not tall or large, and it can accommodate a platoon of people at most, but fortunately there are some ready-made fortifications on the mountain, and there is a circular trench halfway up the mountain, and there is a dark fort made of steel and ash on each side.

The top of the mountain is also two or three hundred square meters of plane, and a pillbox has also been built, one floor, and there are gun holes on all sides. It's just that the fortifications are empty, there are no guns and ammunition.

But this doesn't matter, Sangou doesn't have the heart to stick to this position, just a little person like himself, wanting to defend a hill in the enemy-occupied area, undoubtedly a fool dreams of self-defeating.

Now just take this hill as a temporary foothold, resist the devil's attack during the day, and find a breakthrough to escape at night, as long as they break through a hole and ride a horse all night, it will be difficult for the devil to catch up.

But even though I think so, I still have to deal with what is in front of me.

Seeing the men and horses of the devil's team, they slowly surrounded them in a straggler formation, and the three dogs asked people to concentrate the horses in the houses under the west side of the hill, and arranged for a group of them to guard that side.

In addition, two mortar gunners, Wu Dingli and Zhang Zhiguang, were selected by the bamboo pole to unload the two mortars and some mortar shells from their horses and ask for help to carry them to the top of the mountain.

The others were divided into four groups, each group was three or four people, and they were divided into four pillboxes in the middle of the mountain, Da Niu and Silly Tiger each had a machine gun, and Xiucai and the Dog Leg group were each assigned a grenadier as auxiliary firepower.

There are not many devils, but it doesn't take so many people to deal with a small mountain, there are too many people, and the troops can't be unfolded, but they get in the way.

A squad of devils first surrounded it, and then used the south as a breakthrough point to start a tentative attack, and the devils moved forward in an "A" shape under the cover of two machine guns on the left and right of the flank.

Although the level of the commander here is very inferior, the individual soldier quality of the devil is still there, and the tactical actions such as several people cooperating with each other and leaping forward are very standard, which shows that the devil even has a logistics garrison unit, and the tactical literacy is much better than that of ordinary Chinese soldiers.

Besides, the accomplices of these devils, probably a class of people, suffered a big loss here before, and were annihilated by these horse thieves, so that the devils had to be concerned and did not dare to be careless.

"Put the devil into 300 meters and then fight, and the machine gun will start shooting at 200 meters, and only use small spot shots."

The three dogs called Xiaoxiang to inform everyone, that is, shouted in the hometown dialect, and the three dogs Xiaoxiang and the bamboo pole were in the bunker on the top of the mountain, which was convenient for visual observation and command.

In the past, the devil was usually put into 200 meters to fight, but now Sangou found that the devil is newly equipped with a grenadier that can fire more than 200 meters away, which makes Sangou have to change his previous defensive tactics.

In order to prevent the devils from entering the 200-meter area and using grenadiers, they had to start blocking the attack in the 300-meter area.

In fact, the range of the crooked machine gun has exceeded 400 meters, but in order to save ammunition and have his own hidden fort protection, Sangou put the devil into 300 meters to fight.

There are pros and cons to putting it in, the advantage is that the target is larger, it is easier to shoot and kill, and ammunition is saved. The disadvantage is that when the enemy gets too close, he becomes the enemy's target and increases, and the enemy's grenadier can be used, which is finally convenient for a quick charge.

Therefore, when the devil entered the three-hundred-meter area, the rifle on the side of the three dogs began to shoot back first, because they were hiding in the dark bunker, the devil's machine gun really couldn't suppress it.

In the eye of the gun, excellent shooters such as Xia Chen, Chen Yanxin, Zhu Mingtai, etc., are almost without missing shots, with a distance of 300 meters, and it is a condescending perspective.

Therefore, even if the devil's machine gun frantically strafed the hole of the dark fort for fire suppression, regardless of the loss of ammunition, or the devil moving forward to press his body low, it could not stop the accurate cold gun of the Chinese.

In less than ten minutes, the devils of a squad lost most of them, and the devils had to retreat, no longer so risky and forceful, the marksmanship of these horse thieves is indeed good.

Because Matsuda didn't tell Oda the true identity of the three dogs, and he was embarrassed to say that he had been embarrassed by the three dogs before, Oda's troops had always thought that this was a vulnerable horse thief.

After the devil stepped back for a short rest, he began a second round of attack, this time not attacking towards the hill, but at the small house at the foot of the hill on the west side.

As long as you take this house, you can use the house as an obstacle to resist the bullets of the Chinese and make a springboard for further leaps.

The devil finally took the right path to attack, but even if he took the right path, it didn't mean that he could get to the destination.

This is the stable of the three dogs, and it is also the storage place of the means of transportation they rely on to escape, of course, it is very important, so the three dogs handed over this arduous task to the veteran to take charge of it.

Compared to the hill, this house is really difficult to defend, the area is large, there are no rules, the number of defenders is small, and it is almost impossible to hold it all.

He had to give up, and he drove all his horses into a large house at the foot of the mountain, and then a group of them set up some temporary positions in front of and on the sides of the house.

Guarding the house without being in the house, using the terrain to carry out active defense, using flexible guerrillas, and maneuvering with devils, the real guard of the stable is the hidden fortress on the mountainside to the west.

They tried their best to keep the devils from getting close to the stables, hurting everyone's horses. Therefore, they built their defense line on the edge of the range of the bunker machine guns on the mountainside, so that the devils did not dare to enter this area easily.

Therefore, when the devils entered this house, they thought that there would be a fierce street battle or something, and everyone was very nervous, and they were all very nervous, walking in groups of several people, sticking to the wall, searching and occupying room by room.

And they are far away, waiting for the flowers to bloom, waiting for the arrival of the devil.

After the devil's fierce operation, he found that there were empty houses one after another, and he couldn't help but feel much more relieved, it seems that the number of horse thieves in this group is really small, and he doesn't dare to divide the people very widely.

However, when the devil approached the last few houses, he still maintained a nervous state, because this place was already within the range of the bunker on the mountainside, and if he was not careful, he might be killed by the rifle machine gun in the bunker.
