Chapter 359: Split Assault

On a hill less than two miles away from the rest place of the Japanese army, in order to overlook the entire battlefield, Li Zhilong set up his headquarters here. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As soon as the Japanese troops stopped and began to rest, the specific situation of the Japanese troops was sent to the headquarters by the reconnaissance platoon.

"Although the alert troops are not too vigilant, the vigilance of the entire Japanese army is still quite deep......" After reading the information, Li Zhilong, who was frowning, analyzed directly.

The chief of staff on the side replied with a look of agreement: "The Japanese must have been frightened by our sneak attack, and would rather slow down the march, but also protect the artillery and baggage, for fear of being targeted by us......

"Commander, the Japanese are holding them too tightly, and it is very difficult to divide them......"

"Difficulties also have to divide ......" Li Zhilong, who frowned, replied with a firm face.

"Although we also have more than 3,000 people, if we want to ambush the Japanese army of 3,000 people at once, even if we can, we can't do it all...... Only by dividing and encircling can we completely annihilate the 3,000 Japanese troops outside......"

Soon, one order after another was given by Li Zhilong.

A regiment and a battalion, a battalion brought out by Li Zhilong.

So far, including the Anshan Garrison Regiment, this battalion has not had any combat exploits.

As a result, the task of dividing the Japanese army was taken over by the first battalion.

Because the Japanese sentinels were almost not vigilant, the first battalion touched a bush less than twenty meters from where they had gathered, and several Japanese sentries chatting together were still doing their own thing, and nothing was found.

"Shang ......" The battalion commander who was staring at the Japanese sentry with a pair of eyes ordered to the squad leader of the reconnaissance squad next to him both seriously and quietly.

Soon, the four scouts reached the two Japanese sentinels.

As for the main force of a battalion of hundreds of people, all of them were loaded with bullets, and they were ready to attack at any time.

In the opinion of the battalion commander, it is best for the reconnaissance squad to quietly kill the two sentries of the Japanese army.

In this way, he will be able to get closer to the main force of the Japanese army and launch a surprise attack on the Japanese army with lightning speed.

Of course, if the reconnaissance battalion can't do it quietly. Then he could only launch a surprise attack on the Japanese army in advance.

As a result, the range of their own assault will increase from fifty to one hundred meters.

As the distance increases, so does the risk of assaulting yourself. However, the commander of the first battalion was not worried at all.

Because. The entire battalion of twenty light machine guns was concentrated on their side.

As soon as the assault begins, these light machine gunners will become the first echelon of the assault team and rush to the front.

In the face of the suppressive fire of twenty light machine guns, even if the Japanese improvised a defensive line, it would be torn to shreds by the overwhelming bullets.

Besides, he also received 500 grenades from the regiment commander before departure. If machine gun bullets could not tear apart the temporary Japanese defensive line. Five hundred grenades can also blow it up......

Of course, these are all afterthoughts, as long as the reconnaissance squad sneak attack is successful, these things don't even need to be considered.

At this moment, the four scouts had already reached a position less than ten meters away from the sentry.

The two Japanese sentries remained unaware and continued to stand together, rifles on their backs, discussing something.

At that moment, four scouts moved.

Four people, like four cheetahs that have found their prey. Leaping from the ground, he pounced on the two Japanese.

Before one of the sentries could see the danger, his mouth was tightly covered by a pair of iron hands, and he could not utter a word.

At the same time, the scout's other hand, already holding a dagger, slashed his neck with ease.

This Japanese sentry didn't even see the shadow of the enemy, so he turned into a corpse with a face full of unwillingness.

Another Japanese sentry standing across from him faced the sudden attack in front of him. With a shocked face, he subconsciously wanted to let out an exclamation.

However, his exclamation had just reached his lips before he could utter it. The same powerful hand suddenly reached out from behind his back, pressing his already open mouth tightly, making him unable to move.

And at this moment, a dagger that emitted a cold light quickly flashed in front of him. Subsequently. The sentry felt a chill in his neck and began to gasp.

In three seconds, just three seconds, the sentry felt his physical strength quickly disappear. Then, with a face full of panic and unwillingness, his whole body collapsed weakly in the scout's arms, turning into a corpse.

After quickly taking down the two sentinels with lightning speed.

The two scouts, dressed in Japanese uniforms, quickly picked up the rifles of the devil sentries and continued to stand in place, acting as sentinels.

"It's done...... After the training of the special operations detachment, the skills of these scouts have increased considerably. The battalion commander said with excitement on his face.

Immediately after the end, the troops were ordered to continue to touch the Japanese resting ground under the cover of two scouts.

By this time, the 3,000 Japanese troops had already rested for nearly twenty minutes.

After supplementing some dry food, their physical strength has recovered a lot. However, the twenty-minute rest, coupled with the fact that the sun is at its strongest, shines warmly on people, and I especially want to sleep.

Therefore, while the 3,000 Japanese troops were recovering physically, mentally and spiritually, they became more and more exhausted.

At this moment, the first battalion had quietly touched the position less than thirty meters away from the official road.

At this time, without the need for a telescope, the battalion commander could clearly see the artillery pieces of the Japanese army parked on the official road, and the carts full of various supplies.

Of course, the Japanese around these carts and artillery did not escape the observation of the commander of the first battalion......

"The Japanese were too cautious, and although there were not many artillery and baggage troops, they placed two squadrons of infantry in the middle of these units...... All of them add up to more than 800 people, and we have only less than 600 people when we are full......" The battalion commander looked at the three company commanders beside him with a solemn face.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a serious expression appeared on the solemn face of the first battalion commander.

Without thinking about it, he ordered: "The six heavy machine guns of the whole battalion are divided into two, three in one company, and three in three companies......"

"After the assault began, one or three or two companies were responsible for cutting off the contact between the target and the infantry in front and behind......"

"When it is over, leave a platoon and three heavy machine guns and defend on the spot to block all the Japanese who want to reinforce the artillery......"

"Three companies and other troops, assault the Japanese who were divided by us......"

"When the battle starts, attack the Japanese with guns first, they are the biggest threat to us. As long as we get rid of them, we can clean up the other Japanese as we want......"

"Also, the whole assault process should be fast......"

"Two or three battalions after we start the assault, although they will attack the Japanese in front and behind. However, they were able to pin down at most half of the Japanese. Therefore, the two platoons that remained to block the Japanese would definitely withstand the fiercest attack of the Japanese army. ”

"We must return to these two platoon......s as soon as we destroy the divided forces in the shortest possible time" (To be continued. )
