Chapter Seventy-Eight: Commando (3)

Killing the Japanese outpost does not mean that it is easy, because it is a signal that the Japanese army is getting closer and closer.

Judging from the huge number of pillboxes standing on the Moyun Ridge before, the Japanese army should have at least one defensive position within 300 meters of the pillbox, and its role is to form a three-dimensional crossfire network with the Japanese firepower in the pillbox.

Huang Wenlie was a little irritable now, because although his assault team was about to touch the halfway point of Moyunling, they had nothing else to gain except to pull out a Japanese outpost at the foot of the mountain. On the battlefield, the feeling of not being able to see your opponent is unsettling, and the excessively smooth unimpeded passage only adds to this uneasiness! From the eyes of a commander, there must be a greater danger lurking behind this calm!

Huang Wenlie raised his hand to signal the team to stop advancing, he asked the adjutant to take out the map of Moyunling, and then let everyone gather around to avoid being discovered by the Japanese light source, he turned on the flashlight to find the current location of the commando.

Shangguan Yusi, who was standing beside him, said: "The direction should be correct, I have been here for a few months, and I am quite familiar with this area." Continuing to go up is the Japanese army's bunker group, and behind the bunker group is the main peak of Moyunling. ”

Huang Wenlie pointed to the two sides of Moyunling on the map: "Can these mountains lead to Moyunling?" ”

Shangguan Yusi shook his head: "These are all unconnected cliffs, in the past, there were always some hunters digging a small cave on the cross-section of these cliffs, hiding in it and waiting for the opportunity to hunt. ”

Huang Wenlie asked suspiciously: "How to hunt while hiding in the cave?" ”

Shangguan Yusi said with a smile: "The soil in Moyunling is too hard, and it is very difficult for animals to burrow, so they will instinctively look for some natural and ready-made caves to live in. The hunters learned to be obedient, waited for the rabbits, dug burrows and waited for the prey to come to the door by themselves! ”

Ani also smiled and said, "This is really a good method, the prey is in the hole, and there is nowhere to run." ”

Wang Sibao squeezed in from outside: "Regiment leader, there is barbed wire in front!" ”

Huang Wenlie turned off the flashlight, stood up and followed Wang Sibao with a gun, and several soldiers followed him with iron scissors. Barbed wire is very hidden in the grass, and if it is an attack carried out by open fire, it will definitely be delayed by this thing. The soldiers used iron scissors to cut the barbed wire, and Huang Wenlie half-squatted and drilled through the place where the barbed wire was broken.

A regiment commander does what the vanguard does, in addition to saying that he is too conceited, he can only sigh at his recklessness! Of course, this was a reckless operation, and without such a regimental commander, there would have been no such operation at all!

But on the battlefield, recklessness is not the same as bravery, on the contrary, it is more often equated with stupidity, and Huang Wenlie's stupidity was soon fulfilled.

He held a submachine gun and walked cautiously in front, and suddenly there was a click under his feet, Huang Wenlie immediately froze and didn't dare to move, he glanced at Wang Sibao on his side, and Wang Sibao also looked at his feet in horror.

- Huang Wenlie stepped on an anti-infantry mine!

Huang Wenlie didn't hesitate for a second, and ordered Wang Sibao: "Pass my order!" All stop advancing! …… Go and call Dr. Shangguan to me! ”

Wang Sibao turned his head back in horror, and the Sichuan soldiers who followed him asked puzzledly: "What's wrong?" Did you hit a ghost? ”

Wang Sibao said in a low voice: "It's even worse than hitting a ghost, the head of the regiment stepped on a mine!" ”

The Sichuan soldiers' faces changed greatly, and they immediately followed Wang Sibao to retreat, no one wanted to be affected by the mine explosion. Nowadays, the explosion radius of landmines is no longer comparable to a few meters in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, and even the explosion radius of mines manufactured by Hanyang Arsenal can reach thirty or forty meters.

The Japanese army rarely used mines on the battlefield in China, because they were always in an offensive posture, and this kind of defensive weapon was of little help to them, and habitual cognition affected Huang Wenlie's judgment to a certain extent.

Shangguan Yu Si was carrying a military shovel in his hand, and hurriedly followed Wang Sibao to Huang Wenlie, Huang Wenlie glanced at Shangguan Yu Si, and said lightly: "It's a loose hair mine!" Doctor Shangguan, while the devils haven't discovered us, you can withdraw with your brothers. I said, why didn't the Japanese army arrange a guard post in this area...... This area is likely to be a minefield laid by the Japanese army! ”

Shangguan Yusi didn't say a word, picked up the military shovel and began to dig on the left side of Huang Wenlie's mine, Huang Wenlie understood his intention, Shangguan Yusi was going to dig a 90-degree pit on the side of the mine, so that the destructive power of the mine explosion would be relatively small for himself.

Huang Wenlie said in a low voice: "It's useless, Doctor Shangguan, if I really blow up and become disabled, then it might as well be blown up like this!" ”

Shangguan Yu Si didn't raise his head and said, "At least you can save your life!" Commander, I think that as long as people live, they are better than anything else! ”

Because the soil layer had been turned over when the mine was buried, Shangguan Yusi did not have much trouble digging it, and soon saw the side of the mine. Shangguan Yusi waved his hand to let Wang Sibao retreat, and then said to Huang Wenlie: "Commander, don't worry, even if you lift it, we will also carry you back to the east coast!" ”

Huang Wenlie smiled bitterly: "I hope I can walk back on crutches by myself - it's extravagant." ”

Shangguan Yusi retreated a full fifty meters away, and then fell to the ground, waiting for Huang Wenlie to raise his foot to detonate the mine. This is already the best way, once this loose-haired anti-infantry mine is stepped on, it is lucky that he will lose his arm and leg, unless there are professional sappers who may let him get out of the way.

Huang Wenlie took a deep breath, suddenly used all his strength, flew to the right side, and because of the excessive force, his body lost his balance, and his back hit a raised stone heavily. He couldn't help but snort in pain, but the strange thing was that the mine that was supposed to explode at the same time did not move, and the night wind blew through the grass, as if it had just been a nightmare.

He didn't have time to think about it, he immediately and quickly retreated to a safe place, and Wang Sibao, who was hiding not far away, smiled and said to the Sichuan soldiers beside him: "The regiment commander's luck is so good that he is bubbling, and he actually met a dumb barey!" ”

There will be one defective product for every 10,000 mines, which is the so-called dumb thunder, but on the battlefield, the chances of Qiu Ba encountering this kind of thunder are simply rare, Wang Sibao is right, Huang Wenlie's luck is really good to bubble.

Huang Wenlie was also shocked into a cold sweat, and the whole commando team looked at him, waiting for him to make a decision. If you retreat at this time, you can basically return to the east bank without losing a single soldier and all your troops, but you can lead the team across the river with great fanfare, and then you are frightened back by a mine, and you can't say anything about it.

Huang Wenlie looked at the pitch-black Moyunling and waved his hand: "Keep going!" ”

Wang Sibao and the Sichuan soldiers glanced at each other, this was clearly to let the vanguard go to the mines, but the battlefield was like this, and they had to go if they didn't go up. Shangguan Yusi put the bayonet on the Type 38 rifle and handed it to Wang Sibao: "Use the bayonet to test the soil, if it feels very soft, make a mark, then it is likely to be a mine underneath." ”

This is a very simple method of mine detection, and if it is in other areas, it will not work very well. But in Moyunling, there are volcanic rocks and hard clays everywhere, and such a simple method can achieve unexpected miraculous results.

Shangguan Yusi is definitely not as good as Huang Wenlie in leading troops to fight, but he is definitely stronger than Huang Wenlie in terms of adaptability, which has nothing to do with ability, it is purely due to personality.
