Chapter 294: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada
Chapter 294 Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
Yasumoto is not a fool, and it is impossible for a fool to sit in the position of commander of the Kwantung Army in Benxi Lake.
After the last time the guerrillas set up an ambush, Yasumen deliberately stopped his actions for a period of time, in order to make the other side relax their vigilance.
Of course, during the period when he stopped acting, this guy was not idle, but concentrated on studying new tactics.
He knew in his heart that these opponents were very smart, especially the volunteers, who would definitely retaliate when they saw the success of their counter-ambush, and would develop a new set of tactics specifically against themselves according to their own tactics. Therefore, Aberdeen ordered Prince Xiong to organize a group of staff officers and tacticians to study how the volunteers would change their tactics to take revenge on him.
According to the opinions of his staff officers and experts, Prince Xiong made slight changes to the tactics of the anti-ambush: First, the Kwantung Army on the car used as a decoy got out of the car before entering the danger zone, leaving only one driver. After getting off the car, the Kwantung Army quickly entered the mountains and forests, prepared to charge and counter-encircle, once there was a real ambush, as soon as the car exploded, as soon as the opponent rushed down, its own men and horses could take the opportunity to destroy it.
Another is to widen the distance between the two vehicles reinforced in the back a little, so that if the ironclad vehicles in front are attacked, the Kwantung Army behind will not suffer losses, but will better support them and give the other side a devastating blow.
Prince Xiong had a wishful thinking: even if the vehicle in front of him was attacked, they could maintain a posture of support for each other.
Prince Xiong didn't expect that his tactic would really work.
As soon as the first car as bait entered the mountain pass, it found a hidden place to stop, and all the Kwantung Army in the car got out of the car, leaving only one driver, of course, the little devil gave special protection to this driver.
After the Kwantung Army got out of the car, the car continued to move forward, and the Kwantung Army that got off the car immediately entered the mountains and forests, from the small mountains and forests, and moved forward.
This time, a total of more than forty Kwantung Army troops got off the car.
It was only a few minutes after these guys got out of the car that they heard the car in front of them, and suddenly there were several explosions, and the three soldiers hurriedly walked up the hill to see that the car had been blown away and turned into a big fireball.
According to Prince Xiong's new tactics, the Kwantung Army did not rush over, they laid an ambush and prepared the people on the mountain to come and wipe them out. But after waiting for about ten minutes, not to mention the people coming down from the mountain, there was not even a single gunshot.
This time it was a bit unexpected for the little devil. Just when the Kwantung Army was at a loss, suddenly, from behind these people in ambush, there were several explosions.
The commander of the ambush was a captain of the Kwantung Army.
This captain has been in Kanto for more than two years, and he has participated in not a hundred, but dozens of large and small battles, so he still has a lot of experience in actual combat. When he saw this situation, he did not rush to command the troops to advance rashly, but only ordered the troops to prepare for battle.
The lieutenant waited another ten minutes, and when he saw that there were no ambush personnel rushing down, he understood that these people were only trying to blow up the car and sabotage their own counter-ambush operation. And these people who blew up the car withdrew to the mountains after detonating it. Even if you chase it yourself, nothing will come of it.
This commander is a very cunning fellow. He looked at the place where the explosion came from the direction of the ironclad car behind him, and suddenly he had an idea, and decided to kill a horse gun and intercept the ambush behind him.
As soon as he thought of this, the commander waved his hand, and more than 40 Kwantung troops under his command chased down the mountain pass and a sheep intestine trail in the mountain.
Not long after the little devil entered the mountain, he saw that there were more than a dozen people in front of him, and it seemed that they had just withdrawn from the scene of the explosion.
As soon as the captain saw the dozen or so people in front of him, he immediately showed a cruel smile: "Zhi* that person, a little trick, in front of me, it is impossible to succeed." Today I'm going to show you how powerful the Imperial Japanese Army was. ”
The captain raised his eyes and looked around, and directly in front of him, there was a small mountain bag, on which was covered with evergreen pine forests in all seasons. If you set up an ambush here, as soon as these dozen or so people come over and walk to the foot of the mountain, you don't need to charge, and you can reimburse all these people with machine guns and grenades.
"All, listen to my orders, the target in front of the mountain, quickly occupy, ambush work, be careful, battle formation, kill the chicken!" The little devil's captain commanded in a low voice while opening the way in front.
The little devil gave an order, and the more than 40 people were divided into two teams, one team rushed to the hill in front, and the other team took cover behind with machine guns. Not to mention, it can be seen from this point that the Kwantung Army is well-trained, the formation is not chaotic, and there are rules and laws.
Mengzi and two team members have arrived at the hill bag.
At this time, the fierce man was lying on the top of the mountain, looking down, and suddenly there was a wave of little devils with a cat on his waist, holding a gun, and he touched it in his direction, and was rushing up.
The little devil rushed over the hill, and the fierce man was not too surprised, but what surprised him was that the little devil did not rush over in a swarm, but divided into two echelons, and the echelon behind had already put machine guns and mortars on the rack to cover the attack in front.
"Damn, I really screamed with the master, and I came to a stepped cover charge." Mengzi secretly cursed in his heart.
But scolding and scolding, at this time the fierce man really didn't dare to be too careless, he quietly raised his head and looked at the direction of the more than a dozen people led by the team leader, there was still some distance from here, the fierce man estimated that the little devil reached the top of the mountain, and the team leader and the people he brought with him could just walk to the foot of the mountain.
"TMD, it's really cunning enough, it turned out that I wanted to eat the dumplings of the master, it's not so easy, you two listen to it, you go to the back, pick up the brothers in the back, don't let the little devils under the mountain find out." You must remember it for me, come up and ambush it here, get ready for battle, and the little devil will fire at me as soon as he rushes.
You go over to pick up the squad leader and ask them to get ready, as soon as the gun on this side goes off, they will attack the mountain from the side, the firepower will be fierce, let's two of them will be attacked, although we have few people and insufficient firepower, but it is enough for the little devil to drink a pot. Remember, as long as you repel these bastards and drive them out of the mountains, you can't chase them forward, behind these forty or fifty little devils, there are reinforcements, let's take it when we see it, as soon as the gunfire stops, immediately withdraw and run into the mountains. In the mountains, the little devils did not dare to chase. After the fierce son gave the order carefully, he let the two team members go down the mountain.
A dozen people in the back came up quickly, but these people only had two machine guns.
"Commander, we are here, we are all ready, just waiting for your order." One of the team members climbed to the side of the fierce son and whispered.
"Okay, come up very fast, do you see the little devil below? TMD, these bastards are getting more and more cunning, and they even give this trick to the master, prepare the machine gun, listen to my command, and the rest of the brothers, first give them two waves of grenades, and then wait with guns. When this group of bastards withdraws, let's have an impact, but we can't chase too far, after picking up the squad leader, after the machine gun is broken, retreat to the mountains. ”
"Don't worry, Captain, we're all ready." The team member agreed, and turned around and arranged.
After the arrangement was made, Mengzi turned his head to look at the little devil who climbed up the mountain.
To say that the speed of these little devils is really not too fast, it has been so long, and there are still about thirty meters from the top of the mountain. But thirty meters, Mengzi saw it quite clearly, and he even saw that the commander of the little devil was smiling cruelly, as if the dozen or so people under the mountain had become his bag.
Mengzi sneered: "Hehe, do you really think that the master is a sick cat, then the master will send you back to grandma's house first." After Mengzi finished speaking, he took a 38 cover from the hands of the team members, and the bullet went to the hall, and he did not aim, and as soon as the muzzle of the gun was raised, the "horn" was a shot. With a distance of about 30 meters, for him, even if he closes his eyes, he can point and hit wherever he wants.
Needless to say, the shot of the fierce son was accurate, but the most unexpected thing was sudden.
Poor Japanese lieutenant is daydreaming, as long as this ambush is successful, more than a dozen enemies will become under his own guns, this victory, back in the city, may be promoted to one level, on the shoulder, is the rank of Shaozuo.
As soon as the little devil thought of this, he couldn't help but grin, his spirit was lifted, he raised the command knife in his right hand, pointed to the mountain, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard a "poof" sound, and he felt that his front head was cold, and he didn't know anything.
With this shot, the bullet entered through the door of the head, and as soon as the "horn" exploded in the head, half of the little devil's head was gone.
Looking at this captain again, the head that was still complete just now turned into a bloody watermelon in the blink of an eye. If you don't look at the body below, you can't see that this is a human head at all.
Almost at the same time as this shot came out of the court, the fierce son shouted: "Hit, give me a hard shot of these bastards"
Before Mengzi's words landed, he could hear the up and down of Xiaoshan Bao:
"Da Da Da"
"Boom, boom, boom" rang out, raining machine guns and grenade explosions.
This time it came down too suddenly, and the commander of the little devil asked the fierce son to send him back to his hometown in Japan with one shot. Then came a storm of gunfire and grenade explosions.
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind. These guys just rushed to the hill, and they never dreamed that there was already an ambush here, although there were not many people, only a dozen, and the firepower was not too strong, but this sudden fire still made the little devil who rushed to the top of the mountain dozens of meters dizzy and caught off guard.
As soon as the commander died, the machine gun swept like this again, and in an instant the little devil was a little blindfolded.
"It's not good, ours, the ambush, the commander's dead, retreat, retreat, retreat, machine gun, mortar, cover, cover quickly" A little devil's second lieutenant standing behind the captain commander was looking down and climbing to the top of the mountain with some effort, and a sudden shot, before he could react, he heard a "plop" sound, and a black body smashed into himself, knocking him down on the snow.
This smash really saved his life, and the bullets that swept over the mountain in an instant swept over his body "suddenly" and hit the captain's body. At this moment, he couldn't be afraid, and shouted desperately.
