Chapter 124: I'm scared

Pingding, Yuxian and Shouyang all belong to the southern foot of Taihang Mountain, with undulating mountains.

From Qinquan Town in Shouyang to Pingding's Shishi Station, the straight-line distance is less than 10 kilometers, and the railway mileage is not much, but the road mileage is much farther.

Wangshan is tired of killing horses!

Under the gaze of Xu Chao, the second squad leader of the reconnaissance platoon of the independent battalion, the devil's headlights were moving quickly on the road like a jumping ghost fire.

After a short time, Xu Chaoqian looked at it in advance, immediately picked up the phone, and reported again: "Three motorcycles, two tanks, two armored vehicles, and five troop carriers!" ”

This is the vanguard of the devils, followed by the main force of the devil infantry brigade, but unfortunately the marching speed of the devil infantry can't catch up with the vehicles anyway, and it's night, it's impossible to see the devil infantry brigade behind it at a long distance.

It doesn't matter if you can't see clearly, it's all fought on the battlefield, whether it's Cao Ming'an, the commander of the second company of the independent battalion, or Xu Chaoqian, the commander of the second squad of the reconnaissance platoon, breaking his toes, he also knows that the vehicle that hit the head is the vanguard of the devil, and the rat pulls the bellows in the back!

After the report, Xu Chaoqian whispered an order to the scouts behind him: "Withdraw!" ”

The task of the second reconnaissance squad is to serve as the forward observation post of the second company, and since the number and type of vehicles of the vanguard of the little devils have been clearly seen and reported, the task has been completed and must be retreated. If it's too late, as soon as the ambush battle starts, the main force of the devils behind will definitely run for reinforcements, and the search team will search all over the mountains, and the second reconnaissance squad can't withdraw if they want to!

Xiaozhuang Village is the easternmost village in Shouyang County, with only a few dozen households.

To the east of the village, there is a large slope, and the road winds through it.

At this moment, in the darkness of night, the second company of the independent battalion of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army was hidden on the hillside 50 meters away from the road.

Cao Ming'an, the commander of the second company, was a veteran of the Red Army with rich combat experience, and he knew that if the troops were placed in Qinquan Town, the devils would definitely start a battle formation at a relatively long distance from the town, and it would be very troublesome to fight. Instead of staying in the town to fight, it is better to go forward to occupy the favorable terrain, take it by surprise, and fight the devil unguarded!

Before dark, the second company had already moved to Xiaozhuang Village, first mobilized the villagers of Xiaozhuang Village to move, and then set up a position on the hillside at the east end of the village, preparing to fight an ambush from a high position!

Cao Ming'an had already consulted Xiao Siming before setting off, and this battle should be resolved quickly, and only the vanguard of the devils should be beaten. As long as the victory is clean and neat, it can scare the devils, so that the devils who follow up behind do not dare to chase rashly, or stick to the spot and wait for help, or turn around and jump back.

Generally speaking, the vanguard of the devil is a squad, at most a squadron.

The second company has limited strength, but it wins with strong firepower!

The recruits recruited in Qinquan Town have been organized into a recruit company, led by instructor Chen Minghui and deputy company commander Sang Gancheng, carrying weapons, ammunition and supplies from the Japanese puppet stronghold in Qinquan Town and retreating in the direction of Shiguai Town. Cao Ming'an deliberately left the Type 96 light machine gun of the little devil in Qinquan Town and the Jin-made Czech-style light machine gun of the puppet garrison, and strengthened it to each platoon to increase the intensity of firepower.

Equipped with two Gaoping dual-purpose artillery squads commanded by the second company, the position was set up at the head of Xiaozhuang Village; Two heavy machine-gun squads, together with the fire support platoon of the second company and the grenadiers of the whole company, were deployed 100 metres from the road, behind the three infantry platoons, and could cover the entire ambush area with machine-gun fire.

Due to the abundant time, traps were set up and the little devils jumped, and the fire positions of the second company were very hidden and ingenious, and after camouflage, even the little devils were not easy to find during the day, let alone at night.

Originally, whether the little devil would attack in the direction of Qinquan tonight, Xiao Siming and Cao Ming'an didn't have a score in their hearts, it was just a judgment. Setting up an ambush position here is a bit like waiting for a rabbit. I didn't expect the little devil to really come, and he was generous, and the vanguard turned out to be three motorcycles, two tanks, two armored vehicles, and five cars!

Needless to say, those five cars pulled up to persuade the devil infantry!

When receiving a telephone report from Xu Chaoqian, the leader of the second reconnaissance squad, Cao Ming'an, the commander of the second company, and Liu Xiaoxiao, the deputy instructor, rubbed their hands excitedly!

That's a big deal!

Think about it, during the Pingxingguan ambush war, the convoy of the little devils was only cars and big cars, and there were no tanks and armored vehicles at all. If the little devils had tanks and armored vehicles at that time, I don't know how many more casualties our army would have. Cao Ming'an himself was seriously injured on the battlefield of Pingxingguan, and he almost revolutionized to the end!

Now the situation is different, when the independent battalion destroyed the Taiyuan airfield of the Japanese army, it captured rapid-fire guns that specialize in fighting tanks and armored vehicles, as well as high-level dual-purpose guns that are more powerful than rapid-fire guns, and the soldiers have also learned to use ****** to deal with devil tanks, armored vehicles, and automobiles, and their equipment is advanced, and their combat means are more diversified.

When he thought of this, Cao Ming'an suddenly felt a sense of pride!

With the experience of fighting the tanks and armored vehicles of the devil's reinforcements at Taiyuan Airport and destroying the devil's tanks and armored vehicles in the ambush between Shouyang County and Baijiazhuang, now the two tanks and two armored vehicles of the little devils are not a magic weapon for victory, but a coffin scoop!

Cao Ming'an immediately ordered to prepare for battle!

In an instant, the two Gaoping dual-purpose cannons at the entrance of Xiaozhuang Village were disguished and pointed at the winding road. The muzzles of light and heavy machine guns and grenadiers on the ambush positions were all pointed at the road. On the positions of the three battle platoons, the ****** in the hands of the soldiers were also ready to be ignited and thrown, and they stared at the little devil to die.

When Xu Chaoqian ran back to the ambush position of the second company with the second reconnaissance squad, the three-wheeled motorcycle of the little devil's vanguard team followed.

After all, it was night, and he was afraid of being ambushed, and the devil's motorcycle was not running fast, and it was only in front of the two tanks.

Cao Ming'an, who was crawling on the ambush position, suddenly brightened his eyes.

The devil's motorcycle has entered the ambush position, and each car has a small sun flag and a light machine gun floating on it!

The little devil's tank followed, and the rumbling sound was deafening!

After the tank, there were two armored vehicles.

The little devils standing in the car, holding the board of the carriage with their hands, had blank faces, and neither shouted for us to meet again at the shrine, nor did they sing about crossing the mountains and crossing the sea. It seems that although the 108th Division is very arrogant because it has not been hit by the Eighth Route Army, they are after all a unit composed of reservists.

Because they were preparing for a surprise attack on Qinquan Town, the machine guns on the little devil's motorcycles, tanks, and armored vehicles did not carry out aimless strafing on both sides of the road, eliminating the need for fire reconnaissance.

Seeing that all the devil's vanguard troops had entered the ambush circle, Cao Ming'an shouted "hit", and the shell gun in his hand fired at the devil commander who was observing outside the turret with the upper half of the tank exposed!

In an instant, all the light and heavy machine guns on the ambush position of the Eighth Route Army on the hillside opened fire, and tongues of fire flew in the night, rolling towards the devil's three motorcycles and the five cars behind them.

On the positions of the three battle platoons, the soldiers immediately lit the ****** of the ignition cloth strips and threw themselves at the devil tanks, armored vehicles, and cars on the road.

The first to be unlucky were the three motorcycles that ran in front!

Motorcycles are not as good as tanks and armored cars, not even cars, and they do not have any protective capabilities, not to mention heavy machine guns, and the firepower of light machine guns and Jinzao submachine guns are its natural enemies. Unless a motorcycle is chasing an infantry without a machine gun, the machine gun on the vehicle can be used to the maximum effect.

Then the bad luck was the two devil tanks.

The two Gaoping dual-purpose guns set up at the head of Xiaozhuang Village are tasked with destroying devil tanks and armored vehicles. Two devil tanks ran in front of the armored car, naturally they were unlucky!

Two armor-piercing bullets flew like meteors, drilled through the protective deck on the front of the first tank, and with two loud bangs, directly knocked the first tank into wreckage!

The Gaoping dual-purpose gun had no chance to fire again, and the ****** that flew up like a flock of birds taking off on the ambush position fell down and smashed on the second tank and two armored vehicles, and the slimy liquid mixed with gasoline, white sugar, and brown sugar flowed and ignited on the hull, and the sporadic flames instantly turned into flames, and soon enveloped the tank and armored car, and in a short time, the fuel tank under the body of the tank and armored car caught fire, and a few explosions sounded, and the tank and armored car became a ball of fire!

The little devils in the five cars behind the palace didn't even have a chance to jump out of the car!

Originally, each squad of the Second Company had a Type 96 light machine gun, plus the light machine guns of the fire support platoon, and the whole company had 15 light machine guns in its normal establishment. Cao Ming'an also left all the machine guns captured from the Japanese puppet stronghold in Qinquan Town and strengthened them into the troops, and the number of light machine guns far exceeded the normal number of equipment of a company. In addition to the two Type 92 heavy machine guns under the command, the machine gun firepower of the second company was very powerful, far exceeding the machine gun firepower of a battalion or even a regiment of other units of the Eighth Route Army.

With such dense machine-gun fire, coupled with grenades fired from grenadiers, none of the Japanese troops on the five cars were able to escape under the sudden and fierce fire!

Seeing that the little devil's tanks and armored vehicles were all wreckage, motorcycles and cars were also on fire and burning, and there was no living little devil on the road, Cao Ming'an jumped up, waved his hand and shouted: "Stop!" Stop! Stop shooting! Grandma's, a bunch of losers! Bullets don't want money, do they? Quick, clean up the battlefield, as long as weapons, ammunition and valuables of the little devils, nothing else is allowed! ”

The troops have to march in a hurry, and the military uniforms of the elephant devils can no longer be taken off, they are all luggage, and they can't be taken away!

By the time the Japanese captain Toyokawa Toshio arrived at the ambush point of the Eighth Route Army with the main force of the brigade, the second company had disappeared into the vast night.

Looking at the mess all over the ground, Toyokawa Toshio's face was pale, the muscles on his cheeks were trembling, and he couldn't speak after opening his mouth a few times!

A devil squadron leader came to ask if he wanted to continue the pursuit along the road?

At this time, Captain Toyokawa Toshio was finally able to speak, scolded "Yaga", and instigated the squadron leader's face with a slap!

The Devil Squadron Leader couldn't understand why His Excellency the Captain slapped him inexplicably, and had to bow his head and bend down and say, "Hay! ”

After a long time, the leader of the devil squadron felt that something was wrong, because there was a foul smell of urine from the end of his nose. When I looked up again, His Excellency the Captain was pale and cold! When I looked at the ground again, I saw that the trouser legs of His Excellency the Captain were dripping water on the ground. That's where the smell of urine comes from!

The captain of the devil squadron who was beaten instantly understood, His Excellency the captain was scared and scared! (To be continued.) )
