Chapter 114: A New Mode of Combat

The gray clouds moved slowly, the sun dimmed, and the earth was immersed in cold air, giving people a sense of desolation and desolation.

A pillar of smoke rose from afar, and the wolf smoke alarmed that the devil was coming.

Shen Chen raised his binoculars and looked, the field was silent and desolate. In this season of slaughter, this familiar and intimate land will soon become the grave of the invaders.

The avenue was empty, with no trace of people, vehicles, mules and horses, and only the trees on the side of the road helplessly greeted the arrival of the invaders. In the wind, the dead branches and leaves swayed and sighed, scattering fine snow dust.

If you look at it from above, you can see the yellow marching procession, like two ugly poisonous snakes winding its way forward.

The Imperial Allied Army in front, and the Japanese devils in the back, wearing yellow military uniforms, disgusting yellow military hats, carrying crimson cowhide backpacks, carrying 38 big covers and crooked machine guns, clattering and walking.

In front of the marching queue, the devil's scouts went back and forth to reconnoiter and patrol. The distance between them and the enemy brigade was more than 500 meters, and they served as the top soldiers.

"Smack!" A sudden gunshot broke the silence, and a ghost scout stepped off his horse.

"Enemy attack!" With the warning, several ghost scouts lowered their bodies and searched for the attacker while maneuvering their horses.

"Smack!" There was another crisp gunshot, and a war horse neighed and fell to the ground, crushing the devil to scream.

"Over there!" The devil judged the place where the gunshot rang out, the woods in the distance. It's just that the distance is a bit surprising.

The three ghost scouts pressed their bodies closer to their horses, urging them to rush towards the woods.

Shen Chen hid behind the tree, pulled the bolt of the gun unhurriedly, aimed at the devil and fired calmly, and another devil fell down with a man and a horse.

400 meters, 300 meters...... Shen Chen hit three shots and three shots, looking at the devil who was getting closer and closer with a sneer.

There are traps on the ground, but the devils don't notice them at all, and they gallop at high speed.

Suddenly, a war horse slammed forward, throwing the devil on horseback far away. Then, another horse performed the same move, repeating the same result.

"Smack!" The gunshots rang out again, and a devil who had just risen from the ground fell on his back as if he had been electrocuted.

The other ghost scout fell to the ground, looked back at the warhorse, and couldn't help but widen his eyes. One of the front legs of the war horse was nested in the ground, and it had been broken by the thick and deep pit of the bowl, and it neighed and screamed.

The battle was short, the gains were secondary, and provoking the devil was Shen Chen's main purpose.

The enemy brigade caught up, losing a few scouts, and the attackers had fled, leaving them with a vicious trap and two squeezing horses.

The devil officer looked up at the grove in the distance, and was able to accurately hit the target at this distance, and the opponent's marksmanship was obviously outstanding.

"Boom, boom!" With two explosions in succession, a small group of Imperial Allies who rushed to the grove did not see the attacker, but stepped on two mines.

The lethality of home-made mines is limited, but the shedding of flowers and bleeding is inevitable, which better reflects the intention that it is better to be injured than killed.

Several Imperial Allies were injured and fell to the ground screaming and screaming, and even the devils were suddenly startled, feeling a different dangerous aura from before.

The devil officer frowned, didn't say much, waved his hand, and gave the order to "open the way".

A guy with good marksmanship, two inferior mines can stop the footsteps of the Imperial Army?

The devil officer peered forward with binoculars in hand, disgusted by the cunning of the Shina people, but did not think that such a small trick would have a decisive effect on the established military action.

The enemy continued to advance, but with a lot more caution. The Imperial Army, who was walking in front, stared at the ground with wide eyes, looking for suspicious and anomalous.

There are potholes and depressions on the road, and some seem to be freshly planed, so that the Imperial Association army can avoid them; There was still a lot of snow on the road, as if it had been shoveled from elsewhere, which also made the Imperial Association army tremble and dare not step on it.

"Boom!" A puff of black smoke suddenly rose from the ground, and then there was an extended explosion, and a series of thunderbolts exploded in the Imperial Army, and the screams came and went.

"Yaru-" The devil officer was so frightened by the sudden explosion that he crouched on the ground, and it took him a long time to stand up and curse hatefully.

The smoke had not yet dissipated, and the miserable appearance of the Imperial Association Army could be vaguely seen, and more than a dozen of them were killed and wounded.

"Smack!" A gunshot rang out, and a bloody flower burst out of the devil officer's chest, and he stared at his unwilling eyes and threw himself to the ground.

The gunshots rang out, and the devils shot violently, but this kind of venting revenge had no effect at all.

The enemy is too cunning, too vicious, too much of that, and the poor island Chinese language can no longer express the resentment and curses of the devil.

Squadron Leader Ono rushed to the front, looking at the squad leader who had fallen to death, his face was pale, and he was spewing rough air from his nostrils like an animal.

It should be the guy with excellent marksmanship, the bastard who killed Chief Kono with a cold gun, right?

Ono guessed, observing the distance of the shot, and felt a chill in his heart.

If there were no mines or traps, the army would have been able to chase after it, and it would have been worth it to catch or kill that dastardly gunman, even if it cost a lot.

But now, the price to be paid may be very high. The gunman will also have someone around him to protect him, who will desperately cover the gunman's escape.

There is an even worse possibility that the gunners are only luring, and the pursuing troops will be ambushed by a large number of enemies. It's okay to be safe, but you can't chase one person or a small group of people as a team!

Ono thought about it, and felt that there was no good way to do it except to increase his vigilance and continue to move forward, and arrange a few soldiers with accurate shooting to fight.

The enemy began to advance again, which was also expected by Shen Chen and the others. It is impossible to use a few mines and a few snipers to deter the menacing devils.

The Imperial Allied Army was much more unlucky, and although they kept a distance and were cautious, they still hit a few more mines, and the casualties were small, but they were always dead and wounded.

Stepping on the blood of their companions and listening to the wails of their wounded companions, the Imperial Allies used their flesh and blood to make a way for the invaders.

Elm Village has appeared not far from the main road, and the village is quiet, the chickens do not crow, the dogs do not bark, and there is a dead silence.

Such a scene was not unfamiliar to the enemy, and the Eighth Route Army's resistance bought time for the masses to retreat and evacuate, and the enemy was left with only houses and bulky objects that could not be moved or moved.

Dozens of Imperial Allies and a squad of devils left the main road and headed towards Yushuzhuang. When I came to the entrance of the village, I found that the layout of the entrance of the village was not the same as before.

The entrance of the village has been renovated, and several walls of more than one person high have been built with bricks and stones staggered left and right, so that the situation in the village cannot be seen from the outside.

Realizing that something was wrong, the enemy hesitated to patrol, like a poisonous snake coiled together, looking at the village that did not know the internal situation, and did not dare to enter boldly.

"Smack!" An accurate bullet suddenly shot from the village, one of the devil squad leaders fell on his back, and the others fell down in a hurry.

"Yours, immediately bring them into the village to search and kill, and set fire to the house." The devil roared at the Imperial Army.

The officers of the Imperial Allied Army reluctantly brandished their pistols and urged the Imperial Allied Army to get up and enter the village.

Although the Imperial Concordants were afraid, the order came, and the officers and officers waved their pistols fiercely, so they had to rub their feet into the village.

After the staggered operation wall, there is the main street of the village, only to see the doors of the houses on the left and right closed, and the scattered firewood, grass and wheat straw are blown by the wind and swirl in the snow.

In the center of the street, facing the stone mill at the entrance of the village, it seemed to be grinning and laughing at the cowardly intruders.

Fifty or sixty Imperial troops entered the village, trembling into two columns, and searched along both sides of the street, not knowing that there were a few black-gun attackers hidden in this dead village.

"Boom!" With a bang, a black mine broke through the ground and bounced, bursting out with dazzling light in the air at a height of more than two meters. Stones, pieces of iron, and pieces of ceramics flew in all directions, sweeping through all the creatures in their path.

The team led by Shen Chen was ambushed in the village, and a large squad led by Liu Biao first used human-controlled pull line mines, which were more accurate.

This home-made thunderbolt exploded in the middle of the street, causing extremely heavy casualties to the Imperial Alliance troops on both sides. After the explosion, more than a dozen Imperial Allied soldiers were killed and wounded, and they cried and screamed.

This explosion was like a fuse, igniting a bloody battle to protect the village and protect the family.

A tongue of fire erupted from under the stone grinder, and the machine gun shot a dense bullet over the face of the enemy.

The Imperial Association soldiers panicked and anxious, and ran into the courtyards and houses on both sides to dodge.

But the trap has been laid and is waiting for them to drill. The earth-shattering sound of mine explosions rang out one after another, and the courtyard gates, steps, and fences rang out...... Everywhere there was a long-suppressed roar.

A shrill whistle sounded, and the disgraced or wounded Imperial Allies stumbled out of the village, leaving nearly thirty of them dead and wounded.

An officer covered the bleeding wound on his face, ran to the devil squad leader and cried: "Taijun, the village is full of mines, and it is difficult to move an inch if you touch something!" ”

The devil squad leader was also frightened, the sudden change made him very uncomfortable, and he didn't know whether to let the imperial army attack.

The enemy on the main road heard the sound of fierce gunfire and explosions and hurried to arrive.

Ono listened to the situation report, and his heart was surprised and delighted.

Originally, he had no plan to occupy the village, but just sent troops into the village according to the usual practice, and grabbed what he could, and set fire to the village if he couldn't grab anything. But the stubborn resistance in this village was somewhat unexpected to him.

But Ono wanted to fight the enemy in this village, not just destroy. If that hateful gunslinger is there, so much the better.

After rearranging, Ono ordered an attack.

"Boom, boom, boom......" The devils first bombarded with several mortars, and the fortifications of the operation wall at the entrance of the village quickly collapsed in the fire and smoke of the explosion.

Under strict orders, the Imperial Concorde army once again charged forward and entered the village. Behind are two squads of devils, advancing cautiously as if facing a great enemy.

However, the enemy was not attacked again, and the opponent seemed to have fled or gone into hiding.

Ono stood outside the village, waiting for a fierce battle to break out. He had already sent a squad around the village to intercept the enemy.

But the result was disappointing, and the enemy struck hard, quickly cleaned up the battlefield, and fled from the other side. And the intercepting team, seeing the fleeing figure, opened fire and pursued with a gun.

Ono commanded the troops through the village, following the squad closely behind, pursuing the enemy in the distance.

"Smack!" It was inconspicuous in the chaotic gunfire, but the bullet accurately hit the devil squad leader, and his howling command came to an abrupt end.

"Boom, boom, boom!" Several mines suddenly made a loud noise at the devil's feet, and in the red light and black smoke, the pre-buried gravel shot out in all directions, knocking the devil to the ground.

The pursuing devil killed the officer, and was blocked by a mine, and saw the enemy dig through the ditch, flee further, and into a wood, and disappear.

Ono led the brigade to catch up, and saw that it was another battle with no losses, and he was so angry that he was going crazy.

And at this moment, the sound of explosions came from the Zhuangzi behind the enemy brigade, mixed with gunfire.

It turned out that Ono led a brigade to pursue through the village, but still left some imperial troops responsible for searching houses and looting and setting fire to the village.

The Imperial Concordants thought that the enemy had fled the village, and that the mines had almost been hit. smashed the door and broke into the house, searched around, and thought about making a small fortune!

The two Imperial Concordants entered a courtyard, smashed open the door with the butts of their rifles, and broke into the house with a step.

The Imperial Concordant who was walking in front only felt that his feet were empty, and he only let out an exclamation, and one foot sank in. There was a bang, and the two guys flew flesh and blood, and sawdust and bricks flew in the black smoke.

The enemy still underestimated the minefields placed in the villages, not only on the streets, courtyard gates, fences, and exterior walls, but also in the doors, cellars, and windows, and also hidden killing motives.

The Imperial Association Army originally thought that this was an easy job, but they never expected that there would be hidden killing weapons, and the Imperial Association Army, who broke into the house and smashed the door, continued to pay for the casualties, and began to shoot indiscriminately in a panic.

Ono didn't know what the situation was, so he hurriedly sent someone to take a look. When he received the report, he could not help but grit his teeth, feeling resentful of the insidiousness of the enemy.

In the end, the fire still rose in Yushuzhuang, and after a short time, the fire began to spread, the smoke became more intense, and the fire was more fierce.

"it!" Cao Xiaobao looked back and scolded hatefully.

"Damn little devils." The team gritted their teeth and cursed.

Although such an outcome has been expected, it is still hateful when such a sight does appear in front of the eyes.

Liu Biao smiled bitterly, he was used to seeing the tragic scene created by the devil, and he was already able to suppress his anger in his heart and turn it into a force to kill the enemy at the right time.

It's just that he was still surprised by this small-scale battle. There are a lot of enemies killed, but their own losses are very small, which is simply not the same as resisting a head-on attack.
