When the rain poured down, night fell, and the Japanese troops who were still planning to enter the city had to withdraw from Davao City, which was full of water holes, because of the action of digging 'ground rats', and set up camp outside the city for the night.

It seems that he is a little short-sighted for God, and at this time it suddenly rained heavily, and the little devil naturally felt very depressed. But for the Xinghua army who retreated to the jungle, the rainy night gave them the best chance to carry out a sneak attack.

In Zhao Tiehu's words, there will be thunderstorms tonight, and if you don't send some surprises to the little devils, you are a little sorry for the little devils who came to Xingshi. The little devils camped outside the city also gave the Xinghua army a better chance to sneak attack.

The reason is simple, there are abandoned walls in the city, which can still provide some protection. But when they arrived outside the city, the Japanese army temporarily set up a defensive position. The fortifications that can be excavated make it even worse when it rains heavily.

Most importantly, many Japanese soldiers who were stationed in Davao City had to set up temporary tents and live in tents for the night. And on the first night of the landing, the Japanese division was still very careful.

In fact, not only the landed infantry were worried, but even the Japanese aircraft carrier formation cruising on the sea was also extremely cautious. Fortunately, the aircraft carrier formation felt lucky that although it was raining heavily, the waves were not big.

This means that the aircraft carrier group does not have to leave and go to nearby ports to escape the storm. It's just that for the Japanese aircraft carrier formation cruising on the sea, Zhao Tiehu did not order the submarine formation to carry out a sneak attack.

After all, with only the submarine formation in the hands at present, if you want to sneak attack the aircraft carrier formation that you are on guard against, the final result is very likely to be a lose-lose situation. In this case, Zhao Tiehu still feels that this transaction is not too cost-effective.

Compared with the little devil, there is one less aircraft carrier group, and a second aircraft carrier group can be sent. But as far as the Xinghua Army is concerned, once the submarine formation loses too much, the submarine formation that has been developed with great difficulty will really exist in name only.

Good steel must be used on the blade, for the submarine formation that has been accumulated with great difficulty, Zhao Tiehu still cherishes it very much, and does not want to let the submarine formation easily take risks. After all, he was already prepared for the Japanese aircraft carrier formation.

As night fell, the main force of the Japanese division, which chose to camp on a high ground, still spread the cordon several miles away. But what the Japanese army didn't know was that the battle team sent by Zhao Tiehu was stepping on the rain to carry out a sneak attack.

The sound of rain and thunder provided the best cover for the troops. With special warfare bows and silenced pistols, the squad is constantly obliterating the sentinels sent by the Japanese army to guard the perimeter. It also means that tonight is another night of killing.

Looking at the Japanese tents in front of him, the commander of the battle team, who had advanced to a kilometer away, finally gave the order to stop advancing. After sending troops to the flanks to establish blocking positions, the artillery detachments that cooperated with the operation also began to operate.

"Start erecting artillery! Spread out all the gun emplacements, and then blow them up casually, and let me pour out the shells I brought as fast as I could. After the explosion, let's withdraw and not entangle too much with the little devils, understand? ”

"Yes!"

Hundreds of artillerymen, carrying more than 20 mortars, began to cooperate in groups of four or five. When all the artillery was erected, the commander who led the team ordered: "Five rapid fire, release!" ”

With the roar of mortar shells one after another, the sound of tom tom firing and flames quickly attracted the attention of the Japanese troops in front. Looking at the artillery fire coming straight to the camp, the sentry who was on guard in the camp immediately blew the whistle.

The whistle of 'Di Di Di' quickly broke the originally peaceful military camp. The Japanese soldiers, who were originally hiding in tents to rest, soon ran out disheveled and carrying guns. But in the face of shelling from a kilometer away, they simply couldn't think of a good solution.

What's more, after the shells landed and exploded, the entire temporary camp instantly roared. Some shells hit the tents of the Japanese soldiers directly, completely blowing off the tents and burning them. The fate of the Japanese soldiers inside can be imagined.

The division headquarters located in the middle of the camp, looking at the fierce artillery fire coming from the front, the commander of the Japanese division was also very angry: "Baga! Isn't our cordon three kilometers away? How did these people come out? ”

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, our sentinels are only afraid of bad luck. In this case, let's send out the chariot troops! ”

"Yaga! These damned sneak attackers, order the tank squadron to attack! ”

By the time the order was given to board the vehicle and prepare for the pursuit, ten shells had been fired from each mortar. Seeing that the shells carried were gone, the Japanese sentries on guard around the perimeter also began to outflank from both sides, but the combat team began to retreat.

The barrel, which was originally a little hot, sealed the muzzle after disassembly, and quickly cooled down as soon as it rolled into the muddy water. Even if there was a lot of mud, the artilleryman in charge of carrying the cannon felt that it was not hot, so he picked up the mortar tube and ran.

As for their safety, with the side squad providing cover, they don't have to worry about it at all. All they had to do was speed up and get out of the encirclement that the Japanese were about to form, and they would be completely safe.

Obviously, when the Japanese tanks rushed out of the makeshift camp in the face of heavy rain and mud, it was soon discovered that the sneak attackers had already broken out of the encirclement. After a few encounters with the pursuing Japanese infantry, they quickly disappeared into the night.

The chariot unit in charge of the pursuit drove several miles away and still found no trace of the sneak attacker. The commander who led the team also gave the order to stop the pursuit at the right time. Keep chasing, God knows what traps await them.

During the day, the chariot unit had already lost a quarter of its vehicles, and the remaining ones continued to be damaged. I'm afraid that in a few days, their chariot troops, which they have finally been transferred, will become a pile of scrap metal.

Knowing that the troops who were sneaking up on the attack had run away, the commander of the Japanese division who was staying at the headquarters was also very annoyed and said: "Eight Geya Road! Immediately after daybreak, let the sappers enter the city, clear the ruins of the city as soon as possible, and let the troops station. ”

Regarding the words of the commander of the Japanese division, a wing commander said with a little caution: "Your Excellency the division commander, if the troops are to be stationed, I am afraid that the rainwater accumulated in the city must be drained first. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient for the troops to rain in the future! ”

"Damn it! Tomorrow order the infantry captain to lead his troops and dig a makeshift sewer for me, and the sewer must be cleared for me. A guy who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures! ”

The commander of the Japanese division was very angry when he thought of the infantry captain who blew up underground water pipes in the city in the afternoon to dig up 'ground rats'. In his opinion, if he wants to deal with the sneak attackers hiding underground, there are completely other ways.

If it is confirmed that the defenders who were lurking in the city earlier, they really used the sewer pipes to sneak up on them. They could have sent soldiers to guard the exits of those sewer pipes. As long as the opponent dares to drill out, he can be captured or killed immediately.

Now let the captain of the infantry brigade bomb indiscriminately, not to mention the sewer water network is blown up, and the defenders who were originally hidden underground are estimated to have fled. In the eyes of the commander of the Japanese division, the infantry captain was indeed too incompetent!

The sneak attack, which lasted less than a few minutes, caused hundreds of casualties among the Japanese divisions and regiments stationed in the field. Looking at the corpses of the sentries who were carried back to the camp one after another, the expression of the commander of the Japanese division became more and more gloomy.

But seeing the field hospital that was already crowded with the wounded, the screams of the wounded could be heard everywhere, and the commander of the Japanese division was in a bad mood. In his opinion, tomorrow it is necessary to find a way to transport a group of wounded people to Luzon for treatment.

If this continues, the morale of the division and regiment, which is full of wounded soldiers, will also plummet. On the other hand, they attacked for a day, and still did not see a single corpse of the defenders. Such a battle really made the entire division feel extremely aggrieved.

The Japanese aircraft carrier fleet staying on the surface of the sea also heard the sound of artillery fire coming from the temporary camp. After making a telephone call, the officers and men of the Navy who stayed on the aircraft carrier also felt that these landing troops were indeed quite unlucky.

But they also understood that if it weren't for the landing force sent this time, there would be nearly 30,000 people. If a wing is dispatched to carry out an attack, as was the case in the previous one, it is estimated that the infantry wing of the landing operation is likely to be completely annihilated again.

Considering this situation, the commander of the aircraft carrier fleet finally said: "If the weather conditions are good tomorrow, order our bomber group to carry out a bombing of the jungle around Davao City."

The fact that the other side was able to rush to the periphery of the temporary camp where our troops were stationed in such a short time shows that the place where they are hiding is not far from the temporary camp. Most likely, it is hidden in the nearby jungle. ”

The commander of the aircraft carrier fleet who made this analysis also hoped to relieve some pressure on the landed infantry as much as possible. The Japanese troops, who had been tossed around in the first half of the night, finally felt a little relieved when they saw the redeployed cordon.

But they didn't know that the combat team on standby on the other side had wiped out many Japanese forward sentinels. Even many special combat personnel have disguised themselves as little devils and stood guard for the little devils at the forward position for a long time.

Seeing the temporary camp, it seemed to be gradually quieting down again, and the rain was slowly subsiding. The commander of the troops, who led the team, quickly ordered a surprise attack. As with the attack on the other side, it stops when it reaches a kilometer away.

Another artillery team, which had been on standby for a long time, quickly set up its artillery and bombarded the temporary camp of the Japanese army not far ahead. Let the Japanese soldiers, who had just been lying down for a long time, run out of the tent again in a hurry to avoid the artillery fire.

Previously, the camp on the left was attacked, but this time it was the camp on the right, and the commander of the Japanese division, who was also awakened, roared with a tired face: "Baga, order the chariot troops to attack!" Damn it! What do our sentinels eat? ”

In the eyes of the commander of the Japanese division, the guard post that was clearly deployed two or three miles away, but failed to issue any warning before the other party's sneak attack, which really made him feel that the sentry was a little incompetent. But the problem is that the Sentinels are dealing with the Wolf Warriors.

Isn't it a simple thing for these combat teams, which have special operations experience and are equipped with a lot of special operations equipment, to clean up the sentinels of the little devils? Sentry plastering, advance, artillery erection, artillery bombardment, and then a decisive retreat.

Each operation is not long, but the blow to the morale of the Japanese division is undoubtedly fatal and huge!
