Chapter 187: Scuffle (2)
The moonlight is quiet, the night breeze is cold, on the main peak of Wong Tai Sin Ridge, Lu Shaohui is directing everyone to dig trenches, although he is not sure that there will be a war here, but he still takes it seriously with a prepared attitude, the biggest reason why he does this is because there are too many recruits in his team, the combat effectiveness is worrying, and he lacks basic battlefield survival skills.
Although the trenches are not dug in a very standardized manner and lack of in-depth defense, Lu Shaohui particularly emphasized that he must dig anti-artillery holes, because the Japanese troops he is facing now are likely to be units above the brigade level, and they will be equipped with at least two infantry to run, and he must be responsible for the lives of these recruits.
After digging the trenches, Lu Shaohui and Li Jie began to arrange firing positions for the soldiers of the recruit company, especially the fire configuration of machine guns and grenadiers, and it was necessary to form crossfire. Gao's Sichuan army doesn't need Lu Shaohui to worry too much, although most of them have not experienced actual combat, but they have practiced countless times during training, Lu Shaohui only needs to give a little advice.
After arranging everything, Lu Shaohui lay on the trench and fell into deep thought, what else did he have to do, and suddenly thought to himself, if Liu Changfeng was here, what would he do? By the way, sniper, Liu Changfeng's favorite thing to do is to put the sniper in a hidden place, through long-distance sniping, sniping the enemy's most threatening target, one eliminates the other, and his chances of winning are greater, but unfortunately it is night, and he doesn't have a sniper rifle, the best way is to shoot randomly.
Li Jie walked over, stopped beside Lu Shaohui, and said tentatively; ''Battalion commander, if not, I'll take people over there, and when it's critical, raid their backs, what do you think?''
''No, it doesn't. Lu Shaohui refused, this plan is very risky, if the combat effectiveness of his troops is a little stronger, he may consider it, but now, he did not hesitate to give up this unrealistic idea, because his troops are not allowed to divide their own troops in terms of numbers and combat effectiveness, and if the Japanese army is successful in a charge, I am afraid that his later plans will not be implemented in time, and he will immediately fall into a place of no return, this plan is absolutely undesirable.
''Everyone concentrates and pays attention to vigilance. Lu Shaohui kept reminding everyone while inspecting back and forth.
The cold wind was like a knife, the waves were gusting, the cold wind was whistling past everyone, and the air was filled with nervousness.
Gao Jun slowly patrolled the area in charge of his company, his expression was solemn, cold, with a slight uneasiness and anxiety between his eyebrows, and a kind of excitement eager to prove his ability, he and his brothers came here from Sichuan thousands of miles away, waiting for this moment, there was a faint blood surging in his heart, he told himself that the eldest husband had made great achievements, just now.
Gao Jun participated in Liu Changfeng's actions twice, and these two actions were very smooth, so that Gao Jun had an illusion that the Japanese were nothing more than that, but he still calmly told himself that the real situation was not like this, otherwise the Japanese would not have occupied a large area of their country's territory in a short period of time, and the Nationalist Government would have lost its armor.
Gao Jun's gaze slowly swept over his subordinates, his robe, his eyes flashed a touch of sadness and unbearable, maybe after this battle, many of them will sacrifice their lives for the country, and heaven and man will be separated forever, but they have no choice, because this is their mission.
"Company commander, why haven't the Japanese devils come yet?'' Did you say they would come? A soldier beside Gao Jun raised his head and asked softly.
"I don't know, hold your breath and be careful later." Gao Jun patted the soldier on the shoulder and said silently.
''What do Japanese devils really look like?'' Are they really that powerful? The warrior continued.
Gao Jun was silent for a while and said calmly; ''Japanese devils are also human beings, they don't have three heads and six arms, they will only bully those who are weaker than them, we have to be strong.'' ‘’
"Look, the Japanese devils are coming. Suddenly a warrior shouted loudly.
Gao Jun's heart froze, and he followed the prestige, only to see that on the mountain road in the distance, the bright light of countless flashlights tore through the night, shaking indiscriminately, and he was still about seven or eight hundred meters away from him, and he was moving rapidly here, judging from the number of flashlights, there were at least hundreds of people.
''Everybody's ready, get in place.'' Lu Shaohui's heroic voice resounded throughout the mountain and spread to every corner.
Most of the people here had no experience fighting the Japanese army, and a tense atmosphere permeated the position.
Lu Shaohui's face was serious, and he constantly explained to the officers at the most basic level of the army, their performance is very important, and the performance of the recruits is closely related to them.
Just when Lu Shaohui was nervously arranging the task, the Japanese army's forward troops had quickly arrived at the foot of the main peak of Wong Tai Sin, and they did not know that the Chinese troops had been stationed on the peak in advance and had built fortifications.
''Hurry up and take this mountain. A Japanese officer shouted, waved his hand, and led his subordinates to rush forward quickly, followed by dozens of soldiers behind him.
Quietly on the peak, the Japanese army quickened the pace of advance, the flashlight shook sharply, and one of the soldiers suddenly noticed that something was wrong, hurriedly stopped, and whispered; ''Your Excellency, Captain, there is a situation. ‘’
''Stop moving forward. The Japanese commander clenched his right hand into a fist, motioned for the troops to stop, and asked suspiciously; ''Kawashima-kun, what's the situation?''
''Your Excellency, look, there seems to be a fortification on the mountain. The soldier said, pointing to the peak.
''Nani? Fortification?'' The Japanese commander looked through the sparse trees, his face slightly discolored, and suddenly made a covert gesture.
The others took cover, lay down, and quickly turned off their flashlights, holding their breath as they looked at the commander.
The Japanese commander thought for a moment and said in a low voice; ''I order, everyone disperse, fire reconnaissance work. ‘’
''Hay. The soldiers quickly dispersed, picked up their guns, and fired at the peak, the sound of thumping gunfire that cut through the silent night sky.
The Japanese soldiers lay down one after another, ready to avoid the enemy's counterattack on the mountain peak, but to their surprise, after their own gunfire, the surrounding fell silent, and there was no gunfire of the enemy's counterattack that they expected. The Japanese soldiers looked at each other in disbelief.
"Yaga, what's going on?" The Japanese commander was full of doubts, and then said decisively; "Attention, everybody, advance in battle formation, covertly engage the enemy, move. ' ’
The Japanese advance troops were still a few hundred meters away from the peak, and the soldiers crouched on the ground, crawling forward, trying to minimize the area of attack, and cautiously climbed to the peak. (To be continued.) )
