The reason why Li Ziyuan brought a small team to find out the situation was because this team had dealt with the Japanese puppet army many times with him in Pingchuan. As for how to advance covertly under the nose of the enemy, compared to other squads that have not yet had the same experience, they have considerable experience.

Therefore, even if the Japanese puppet army had an ambush on the ridge, Li Ziyuan still had the confidence to take advantage of the night to touch it from under the noses of the Japanese puppet army. In addition to the first team, the other teams Li Ziyuan will also give them a chance to fight, but at least it is not a good opportunity at the moment.

It's just that this time Li Ziyuan obviously made a mistake in judgment. When Li Ziyuan cautiously found out that it was about a mile away from Wangjiagou Beishan, that is, about a mile away from the place where he fought his first battle after being transferred to the Hubei Guerrillas, he found a camouflaged guard position of the Japanese puppet army.

If it weren't for Li Ziyuan's extremely careful observation, he found that the Japanese steel helmet in this fortification flashed under the moonlight. The muzzle of this machine gun was pointed directly at the warning position on the mountain road down the mountain, and he stepped on it. At that time, Li Ziyuan couldn't sneak attack, but was bitten by a snake.

The alert position of the Japanese puppet army was not located on the ridge of the mountain that he judged, but in a well-shot depression halfway up the mountain. In other words, this guard position was firmly stopped in front of him. And if you want to avoid this place at this moment, it is too late for Li Ziyuan.

Seeing that all his energy was focused on the road at the bottom of the mountain from his camp to Wangjiagou, he avoided the Japanese puppet army's warning position that was too late at this time. After Li Ziyuan and Liu Lianming beside him glanced at each other, the two of them handed the gun to the soldier behind him and pulled out the bayonet on their bodies. One closed the safety of the barge gun, picked up the dagger turned from the bayonet, and directly touched the Japanese puppet army's guard position.

At this moment, Li Ziyuan's idea is very simple, since it is too late to avoid it, and there is no way to avoid it, then I will kill you directly. And Liu Lianming beside him, after following Li Ziyuan through the actions of Wangjiagou Beishan and Pingchuan Town, the two of them obviously developed a tacit understanding.

After touching it, the dagger in Li Ziyuan's hand first cut the throat of the Japanese deputy shooter, and then quickly inserted it into the other one, and when he heard the movement, he was turning around the machine gunner's chest. And the bayonet in Liu Lianming's hand was also inserted into the back of a Japanese soldier Cao. When the two of them solved this machine gun alert position, it can be described as a clean and neat action.

To solve this position, Li Ziyuan did not act hastily. Instead, Liu Lianming led a small team to nail here, and he climbed the ridge cautiously like a swimming fish. Crawling along the ridge for more than 100 meters, he slowly stopped when he could observe the Wangjiagou area. Raise the telescope to take advantage of the fire in Wangjiagou and carefully observe the movements of Wangjiagou.

It's just that at this look, Li Ziyuan was stunned. At present, all the houses in Wangjiagou have been set on fire by the Japanese army. But none of the people were seen, and although he searched carefully, he still found no trace of the people, not even the corpses.

I can only see the surroundings of Wangjiagou by the light of the fire, and there is only about one small group of Japanese soldiers and a squadron of puppet troops. Compared with the number of Japanese puppet army dispatched this time, the difference is too great. In addition to the remaining Japanese puppet army on the mountainside below, I am afraid that there are still quite a few people waiting for them at a certain place.

But when Li Ziyuan, who wanted to take a closer look, tried to crawl forward a little more in order to find the traces of the people of Wangjiagou, his good luck came to an end. In Liu Lianming's direction, the sudden dense gunfire made Li Ziyuan's heart startled, and he knew that his whereabouts were exposed.

Thinking of this, Li Ziyuan took out a Japanese-made grenade, pulled out the safety and knocked it the ground, then paused for two seconds and rolled the grenade directly down the hillside. When the grenade exploded, the light of the flashlight was blazing on the mountainside, which had been relatively calm. The Japanese puppet army, which was hidden on the mountainside of Beishan, also fired almost all of them at the same time.

It's just that Li Ziyuan chose a Japanese-style grenade for this sneak attack. It's not like a firearm, and the best effect of fighting in the mountains is at night until it hits your head and explodes, and you don't necessarily understand where the attacker is coming from. Li Ziyuan's Type 97 grenade exploded on the mountainside, making the Japanese puppet army ambushed on the mountainside think that the attackers were launched from the foot of the North Mountain.

Most of the gunfire was aimed at the foot of the mountain. As for Li Ziyuan, who quickly retreated in the direction of Liu Lianming after dropping the grenade on the ridge, he was not discovered. Of course, Li Ziyuan is also very knowledgeable, and he didn't run a few dozen meters before a grenade came. Let the Japanese puppet army think that the attacker is at the bottom of the mountain, hidden in a corner.

Li Ziyuan directed most of the firepower to the bottom of the mountain, but it did not mean that Liu Lianming's pressure would be reduced. If it weren't for Li Ziyuan who had taught them to use machine guns as small and medium-sized captains, Liu Lianming had dispersed the swarming Japanese puppet army with a short point shot.

In addition to the other team members, they desperately used grenades to blast a wall of fire around this small guard position. I'm afraid that the Japanese puppet army that discovered them would have solved them a long time ago. But when Li Ziyuan ran to the Japanese puppet army guard position without danger, Liu Lianming was still in danger.

Seeing that several Japanese soldiers were about to sneak attack behind Liu Lianming from the ridge, Li Ziyuan didn't care about exposing himself. Flatten the shell gun in his hand, and a long point shot knocked down those Japanese puppet soldiers. At the same time, he pulled the last Japanese-style grenade in his hand and threw it directly.

After breaking up the Japanese puppet army that had almost rushed to the edge of Liu Lianming's fortification in a short time, Li Ziyuan entered the fortification with an arrow. At the same time as Li Ziyuan jumped into the fortification, two flares fired by the Japanese army rose into the night sky, instantly illuminating the perimeter of the machine gun fortification.

Seeing the Japanese army firing flares, Li Ziyuan knew that the Japanese army was about to officially launch an attack, and the shells were probably about to fall on his head. Thinking of this, the shell gun in Li Ziyuan's hand quickly fired a long shot, then took over the crooked handle in Liu Lianming's hand, braved the intensive machine gun fire of the Japanese army, and quickly retreated to the back mountain while fighting.

Before they could get a dozen out, two Japanese infantry shells hit the fortifications accurately. On the ridge and at the foot of the mountain, a large number of Japanese puppet troops also appeared at the same time. Under the illumination of the flares, they quickly outflanked them. The artillery fire of the Japanese puppet army also constantly chased them and bombed them.

When he ran to the corner of a mountain, Li Ziyuan, who was blown up by the cannonball, decided that Lao Tzu would not run away and fight you here. He tossed the crooked handle in his hand to the soldier next to him and asked him to help him fill his bullets. After he himself connected the shell gun in his hand to the holster, he continued to shoot and cooperate with Liu Lianming beside him.

After draining the bullets of the shell gun in his hand, Li Ziyuan threw out a grenade, and quickly repressed the shell gun in his hand with a new magazine. He took the crooked machine gun and immediately shifted his position after firing a short shot. Constantly cross-firing, covering the other fighters behind him to find the main force.

Even though they had a machine gun in their hands, their firepower was still too weak. The grenades fired by the grenadiers with more and more accurate landing points could only constantly shift the position of Li Ziyuan, and also constantly reduced the continuity of Li Ziyuan's firepower. The Japanese puppet army, which had been outflanked by many routes, was almost about to complete the outflanking of Li Ziyuan's location under the cover of artillery and grenadiers plus heavy machine guns with absolute superiority in numbers.

Just when the Japanese puppet army was almost about to complete the outflanking of Li Ziyuan and the small team he led, the flank of the Japanese puppet army's charging formation suddenly sounded dense gunfire. It turned out that the Japanese puppet army, which had rushed to Li Ziyuan's two flanks, was hit back by this burst of firepower.

Hearing the gunshots for a while, Li Ziyuan knew that this was the main force of the opposing team. After handing over the machine gun in his hand to Liu Lianming, Li Ziyuan quickly found Guan Li and Chang Juan. Li Ziyuan said to Guan Li: "Lao Guan, I will take a squadron to entangle the Japanese puppet army here, and you will immediately enter Wangjiagou from the east." Find the villagers and take them to Dongshan quickly. ”

Li Ziyuan's order, Guan Li didn't say a word, turned around and took the second squadron to carry it out. And Li Ziyuan immediately deployed with a squadron and deployed along the two wings of a small squadron. The crooked handle of the first squadron and the one in Liu Lianming's hand formed a cross fire. And tell your team members to greet them with grenades as much as possible.

With the arrival of the first squadron, it was obvious that the Japanese puppet army on the mountain had come to reinforce the Japanese puppet army, and they also quickly began to adjust their deployment. One after another flares hit the sky, and the Japanese mountain artillery and infantry artillery, as well as the mortars of the puppet army, continued to attack and cover the fire. The heavy machine guns of the Japanese puppet army, as if they didn't want money, desperately swept towards the hill where Li Ziyuan was.

As the number of Japanese puppet troops continued to increase, the firepower became more and more fierce, and under the cover of flares and artillery, one after another almost non-stop charges, Li Ziyuan was facing more and more pressure. Soldiers who had not yet learned to dig trenches and foxholes, and could only climb on the ground and use the hillside trend as shelter, also began to suffer casualties.

It was not only the Japanese army's extremely skillful techniques and tactics that brought extremely heavy pressure to Li Ziyuan's sniping. Even the puppet army today is like taking the wrong medicine, and the momentum of the Japanese army's charge is also quite fierce. Even cadres at the level of squad leader led the team to charge.

In the face of the fierce continuous charge of the Japanese puppet army and the fierce artillery fire, Li Ziyuan, who only had more than 30 people, could only grit his teeth and insist. Li Ziyuan, who is under great pressure at the moment, only hopes that Guan Li can quickly find the villagers in Wangjiagou and transfer them as soon as possible.

But the development of events does not depend on human will. Li Ziyuan faced the onslaught of the Japanese puppet army on this side, outflanking and fighting hard for his life, but Guan Li did not react at all. In the direction of Wangjiagou, it was as silent as death.

As time passed, Li Ziyuan's side felt more and more difficult to support, and the soldiers who had no fortifications to rely on also suffered heavy casualties. After repelling another attack by the Japanese puppet army, it was the first time to participate in the battle, and at this time, Chang Juan, whose face was extremely pale, was made by the bloody scene in front of him.

Found Li Ziyuan, who was busy bandaging a wounded soldier on the arm, and said, "Captain, you can't fight like this." It's only been half an hour, and we've lost half of our casualties. If the Japanese puppet army is coming to charge twice, our people will have to explain here. Captain, you have to think of a way, it's too late if you don't retreat. ”
