Chapter 152: Main Peak Position
Now the main forces of the Japanese army must be concentrated in the first defense position, the Japanese love the Chinese 36 tactics to death, their main peak position is actually suspicious of the army, there are not many defenders at all.
I figured this out, and immediately carried my carbine and quietly walked towards the main peak position of the Japanese army, with Ani and Zhai Meng following closely behind me.
Because the geology of Moyunling is hard, the soil in most areas is volcanic rock hard cementitious soil, and it is a lot of work to dig down.
Therefore, the communication trenches of their main peak position are far less deep than we imagined, they are only half-bunkers more than a meter deep, and a large number of sandbags are piled up above the trenches to increase the height, which is not even possible to shoot upright.
The situation in the communication trench was as I expected, there were not many Japanese troops at all, and the main peak position was probably hundreds of meters long, although it was impossible to estimate it too accurately.
However, judging from the fact that the three of us had already walked more than ten meters in the communication trench and had not encountered a single Japanese soldier, there would never be more than 50 Japanese troops stationed at the main peak position.
Even if we pull our team of thirty people up and fight with them, we can fight them evenly. If it's a sneak attack, they might even eat them.
But at this time, I already understood how the Japanese army was tired of fighting between the first defense and the main peak position, and I naturally would not take the risk of fighting like this again.
Because as soon as this side starts fighting, I believe that in less than ten minutes, their reinforcements will quickly return from the first defense position. As soon as the first defensive position was shelled, their support immediately rushed over, leaving the main peak position empty.
The Japanese army reserved a large number of direct-aim fire points at the main peak position, and there was a machine gun nest at almost every dozen meters from the 92 heavy machine gun position. With such dense firepower, if I had strafed our troops attacking from the bottom of the mountain, I could have closed my eyes and imagined how tragic it was at that time.
I took out the small mirror and shook it in Carol's direction a few times, and I put it away immediately, regardless of whether he saw it or not. The three of us tried to avoid places where people were talking, and walked up the traffic trench.
I looked in the direction of the bunkers not far from us and pondered, wondering if I should go up and have a look, to see how these bunkers of the Japanese army differed from ordinary bunkers.
Ani saw my thoughts, leaned over and whispered, "Brother An, are you going to enter the bunker?"
I'm feeling like a kid with a code toy, who has just cracked the first password, and the rest of the secret answers are looming in my mind, and I really can't help if I don't confirm it.
But the blue sky and the white sun are definitely not good, no matter how sparsely guarded the main peak position is, it is not something that the three of us can break through. Supposedly, this is already a deep tiger's den, and I should really retreat.
However, my great curiosity made me irrepressible and full of longing to find out about those reinforced concrete buildings. When this thought grew wildly in my heart, I decided, wait here! Wait until it gets dark.
I can't wait too late, because I agreed with Zhang Da that when it gets dark, he will ask the signal corps to call for artillery fire on the east coast again, and once again accurately bombard the Japanese army's first defensive position, even if the Japanese army is already prepared, we are not afraid, what we want is the chaos of the Japanese army, not the casualties of the Japanese army.
The three of us hid in the empty position of the main peak of the Japanese army, and we really had the same fear of being in a foreign land, because we didn't know when, a Japanese soldier would burst out of our side, of course, we were not afraid of a Japanese soldier, a Japanese soldier would recruit a group of Japanese soldiers, and then we would really die without a place to bury.
Every time we heard the sound of human voices and footsteps, we hurriedly moved our hiding place, and at the end of the day, we changed our hiding place more than a dozen times in succession. Fortunately, there were really not many Japanese troops left in the main peak position, and they could not have imagined that the enemy army had eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and it had penetrated deep into their hinterland.
There are certainly fewer mosquitoes in the traffic trench than in the grass, but the danger is more than ten times or hundreds of times that of lying in the grass, and the slightest negligence is a life and death judgment.
Finally, when it got dark, I looked at the time and it was time to act. If we don't act, when our team rushes through the defense, it will be impossible for us to think about it again.
We took our carbines and took advantage of the cover of night to go up. These communication trenches extend in all directions and lead directly to the bunker group above.
The road was unimpeded, and they did not encounter a single Japanese army, and their main forces were all in the first defense, in their opinion, since there was no problem with the first defense, there was no need to arrange too many guards here.
Quickly walked to the exit, a Japanese soldier was sitting on the ground with another Japanese soldier holding a cigarette in one hand, talking about something, laughing and dancing everywhere. A few meters away from them was an unguarded nest of light machine guns, and it was clear that the two negligent Japanese soldiers guarding the passage.
I gave Zhai Meng a look, and we quietly approached them, and I still wanted to solve them with a knife. But as soon as we got to the machine gun nest, a Japanese soldier suddenly turned around, saw us and shouted: "There is an enemy!" "βthat's what I guessed, I guess they must have shouted this sentence.
Without waiting for him to grab the rifle, I raised my carbine and slammed it into a shot that shot him at close range, and the bullet from the carbine pierced his chest. As soon as another Japanese soldier touched the butt of a light machine gun, he was shot by Ani, who had long been aiming.
I took Ani and Zhai Meng without pause, rushed directly into the bunker, and as soon as I rushed in, no matter what the target, as long as it was the target of the activity, I picked up the carbine and fired violently.
Da Da The dense gunfire caused a huge echo in the bunker, and when the smoke cleared, we saw that there were only four Japanese corpses in the bunker, all of which had been beaten into a hornet's nest. We were able to shoot bullets that could wipe out a platoon, but we had only four enemies on our side.
I took a cursory look at the bunker, surrounded by a myriad of standing rifle point-and-shoot holes, heavy machine guns, light machine guns, and even grenadier canisters all firing at the brim, a standard company-level defensive bunker.
The main body of the bunker is completely reinforced and concrete, and with this thickness, it is difficult to destroy it even with 150 shells.
Ani urged me and said, "Brother An, don't look at it, as soon as the gun goes off, the devil will be able to search for it soon." β
Zhai Meng stood at the door of the bunker, nervously listening to the movement outside.
I also knew that I could not stay here for long, and I promised to withdraw from the bunker when I suddenly saw a staircase in the corner of the bunker leading to the ground. I walked to the staircase with my carbine in my hand, and the barrel of a 38 rifle poked out and fired a slam shot, the bullet hitting the wall and sparking.
"Hurry up, if you don't go, you'll be blocked!" Zhai Meng shouted.
"Let's go, let's go!" I turned around and rushed out of the bunker, looked at the bearings, and ran straight to the back of the bunker. This is a mountain road built by the Japanese army, which can not only pass infantry, but also artillery wagons and some mule and horse carts can be transported up from the bottom of the mountain.
"Run along this road! You can run all the way to where we're lurking and shoot when you see an enemy! β
When we came, we climbed up from the back of the mountain, as if it was very far away, and there was a mountain road, or a downhill road, and we couldn't stop running fast.
