In view of the countless losses suffered in the eastern mountainous area of Hubei before, Tsuruta Numan was extremely careful this time. , the latest chapter access: ШШШ.79xs.СоМ . When searching for the bodies of the war dead, strict vigilance was made to several key points in the vicinity to prevent a sneak attack by enemy troops. The corpses of the Japanese soldiers that had just been buried by the brigade were also dug up again one by one and gathered together to prepare for cremation.

This time, the nearly 1,000 Japanese troops under the personal command of Tsuruta Numanan were based on two squadrons of infantry and one squadron of heavy machine guns. In addition, two artillery squads of the brigade, one each of the baggage and engineers, and some units 'drawn' from the regimental headquarters of the 36th Division, were temporarily formed into a detachment.

Coupled with the two squadrons of the Hubei County puppet garrison, the first batch of reinforcements was gone. The main force of the puppet Jin Nanjian ** was transferred by the Japanese army to other directions to sweep 'sweep'. Hubei, which is the rear of the Western Front in this sweep, cannot but leave enough troops to garrison.

Therefore, among the support army led by Tsuruta Nunan, the number of puppet troops is only two squads, plus one plainclothes team of Pseudo Hubei County. For example, this kind of exhumation of corpses for cremation, as well as the preparation for cremation, can only be done by the Japanese army themselves. It has always been regarded as a puppet army used as a substitute for the dead and labor when needed, but this time it escaped.

It's just that when the people sent out to go up the mountain to find enough wood, the accident is by accident. Although Li Ziyuan withdrew with his troops, Li Ziyuan did not remove the traps that Guo Laosan 'made'. Now that these traps have been completed, Li Ziyuan will not dismantle them again.

Anyway, Li Ziyuan knew that with the habits of the Japanese army, as long as they still had an advantage on the battlefield, then they must restrain the corpses of the war dead, and abandoning the bodies of the war dead was an absolutely forbidden behavior among the Japanese army. Since there is such an opportunity, Li Ziyuan will give up again.

However, Li Ziyuan, who was familiar with the various habits of the Japanese army on the battlefield, did not set traps in the surrounding places that could be used as warning points. Instead, traps were set in places where firewood could be collected, and where the Japanese could be used as surface positions in the event of an attack.

When the Japanese army seized the commanding heights, nothing happened. It doesn't mean that they will still be safe and sound in the future. In the process of seizing the commanding heights around the perimeter and deploying the guard, they did not encounter any dangers and accidents, which also made the Japanese army a little relaxed in its vigilance.

As a result, it turned out that some things don't necessarily have to be set on the surface, but should be where they are most needed. While concentrating wood to prepare for the cremation of the bodies of the war dead, accidents were frequent. Especially the puppet army that was used as coolies by the Japanese army, and it was the first to bear the brunt of the unlucky eggs. Although the number of puppet troops strengthened this time is not large, the two puppet army squads can't be busy with the imperial army, they are watching the excitement over there, aren't they?

First, a puppet army team went up the mountain to find firewood, and stepped on several serial traps one after another. The three puppet soldiers were hung to a tree and became hanged ghosts. There were also a few puppet soldiers, who were pierced into the heart by the nail boards made of sharpened wood that suddenly flew over. There are also two puppet soldiers, who are even more tragic and fall into the trap used to trap wild boars.

And the two Japanese squads who also went up the mountain to cut down trees did not turn out much better. Except for those puppet soldiers who encountered traps, none of them were copied again. He also stepped on several nail mines made of bullets, and several Japanese soldiers were killed or injured by this inconspicuous nail mine.

As for the cause of death this time, it is very simple, the problem lies in the bullet used by Li Ziyuan when he set up the nail mine. The bullet he used was a standard 38-type bullet made by the Japanese, instead of the original 77-caliber machine gun bullet.

The Type 38 rifle bullet, which was too penetrating at close range, changed its trajectory and burrowed into their stomachs after piercing their insteps. Although these Type 38 bullets penetrated the backs of the Japanese soldiers' feet, they did not completely lose their ability to penetrate. However, the hard foot bones caused the Japanese bullet to change the shape of the warhead, from an ordinary bullet to a bullet with great lethality such as a dummy bullet.

These bullets, which had been changed by the bones of the Japanese soldiers themselves, after penetrating into the stomachs or lower bodies of Japanese soldiers, either mixed up the internal organs of the Japanese soldiers into a pile of "messy" things in the process of rotation, or after entering from this side, they took away a piece of "meat" with the mouth of the bowl when they came out from that side.

Among the few Japanese soldiers who stepped on the nail mine, except for a bullet that was redirected and broke the lower body, although he became the latest eunuch, he saved his life after all. The rest were not spared, and all died on the spot. It's just that the only guy who survived, it is estimated that he will definitely not have the courage to survive when he wakes up.

Man, if that thing is destroyed, it will completely lose the dignity and fun of being a human being. In front of others, it is estimated that you will never be able to raise your head. Although the Japanese don't pay much attention to inheritance, the fact that thing has been destroyed is unacceptable to any man.

Compared to the Japanese soldier who was unconscious and did not know that he had become a eunuch at the moment. The face of Tsuruta Numan at the foot of the mountain, looking at the sporadic but constant gunfire on the mountain, turned extremely blue. Although because of the terrain, the details of the mountain were not seen.

But Tsuruta Numan was sure that this was definitely not an enemy attack. But what was it, and the sporadic gunshots, made him confused. I don't know how to use bullets and iron nails to make nail thunder said so Tsuruta Numan Nan, I really haven't figured it out.

And the Japanese soldiers behind him, the gunfire that rang out after the nail mine bullet was fired was regarded by them as an enemy attack. Without Tsuruta Numansu's orders, he immediately went up the mountain to accurately seize the position in accordance with the requirements of the combat regulations, and made preparations for the battle. The two '92' infantry guns were also immediately ready to open fire.

Wait until an officer next to him comes to ask Tsuruta Numan to hide immediately. Seeing that the Japanese troops under the mountain were quickly seizing the position, Tsuruta Numanan, who suddenly reacted, gave an order to the Japanese lieutenant beside him: "Hurry, order them down immediately." This is not an enemy attack, it is a trap and trick set by the enemy. Quick, order them down at once. ”

But by this time, it was already a little late. No matter how fast the Japanese army carried out the order, it would take a certain amount of time from the time of reaction to the completion of the U-turn. Before he could wait for his order, the officers who were a little overwhelmed, and his subordinates reacted from his shouts.

The two infantry squads of the Japanese army, who had gone up the hill to prepare for the attack, were already wailing on the hill with the sudden sound of several continuous explosions and sporadic gunfire at the same time. Hearing the explosions and gunshots on the mountain, Tsuruta Nunan's already iron-blue face became even more iron-blue.

Among the surrounding hills, the trap set by Li Ziyuan for the Japanese army on the most open hill in the 'shooting' range was almost stepped on by these two Japanese squads that formed a skirmish line. The grenades and nail mines used to set the traps inflicted heavy casualties on the Japanese troops in two squads.

Nail Mine doesn't have to be deadly, but it's easy to use. As long as you have a sufficient number of bullets, you can do as much as you want. And the trap has Guo Laosan, a veteran who beats stuffy sticks and plays tricks, plus Li Ziyuan, a scholar in his previous life. As long as you are willing to put in the physical effort, isn't it easy to do as much as you want?

The Japanese carried up the mountain, a 'Ting' Type 92 heavy machine gun ready to be used to suppress the battlefield. There was no problem with the machine gun mount of more than 100 catties, but with the addition of the main and auxiliary machine gunners, the position that was selected to set the machine gun collapsed directly. A large pit caused the machine gunner, along with the 'Ting' Type 92 heavy machine gun, to fall directly into the pit with two Type 97 grenades.

With a violent explosion, the two machine gunners who fell into the trap, along with the weapons in their hands, were directly reduced to parts, and were blown out of the pit formed by the trap. A 'strong' heavy machine gun was blown up into parts without firing a single shot, plus two machine gunners were hit.

Although Guo Laosan said that it was difficult for him to determine the possible location of the Japanese machine gun. However, with Li Ziyuan, a person who has a considerable understanding of the tactics of the Japanese infantry and has rich experience in actual command on the battlefield, it is not difficult to set such a trap.

There are some 'yin' dark sides in these two 'sexual' personalities, and even the 'yin' guys get together, and it is difficult for the Japanese army not to suffer losses. However, compared to these two machine gunners who were directly glorious at once, the others were even more unlucky. Although there is only one such trap, there are definitely a lot of nail mines on this mountain.

The other Japanese troops on the hill were more numerous. By the time the two teams cautiously withdrew from the mountain, only a third of them remained. Except for the unlucky ones who died directly, the rest were holding their feet on the hillside and screaming.

Looking at the few wounded soldiers who were carried down the mountain, Tsuruta Numan knew that although these soldiers were not killed on the spot, they were all crippled. Bullets passed under the soles of their feet, and some of them had their entire foot bones shattered. In this case, even if the fate is saved, it is no longer possible to go to the battlefield.

I didn't even see the enemy, even the dead and wounded, and the crippled, and the loss of almost two squads of troops, made Tsuruta Numa's face quite ugly. Enraged, he also couldn't care about reining in the corpses of the previous battle dead, as well as the casualties that had just appeared. After 'forced' the puppet army up the mountain, carried down the wounded soldiers and sent them back to the stronghold.

Command the forces under his command and immediately re-launch the search along the battlefield from east to west, sieving hill by hill. Tsuruta Numan swore that even if he couldn't find the main force of the Eight Roads, he would find the special 'gate' who liked to play the sleeve and play the stuffy stick, and there was no samurai-style Dirt Eight Road.

Tsuruta Numan thinks that there will be no one else who can make these things except for the Tsuchihachi Road that is active in the eastern mountains of Hubei. Although the regular Eighth Route Army can also lay mines, it can play so many 'tricks', except for the 'yin' guy, there will definitely be no one else.

However, Tsuruta Numan gave up looking for the so-called Eighth Route Headquarters, and launched a dragnet-style sweep from the battlefield to the two strongholds of Luoma and Qiaokou, not simply to find this Dirt Eight Road to retaliate. Another reason is that he didn't believe the telegram sent by Kencho Okazaki before that he was besieged by the main force of the Eighth Road.

Although he was killed and injured heavily, he was furious. But at this time, Tsuruta Numan was quite calm in judging the situation. In other words, he was not completely carried away by this battle in which he lost his troops without seeing the enemy. The judgment of all the surrounding situations is still very clear.
