Chapter 178: Brutal Positional Warfare
Several hot-blooded soldiers raised their guns, pointed their guns at Liu Cheng, and shouted loudly: "If you don't resist again, we will shoot you, and Lao Tzu will fight the devil himself." ”
"Bastard, it's all the other way around, isn't it? I am carrying out the order of the commander of the independent company of the boss major, this is called luring the enemy deep, dragging down and dragging the tired enemy, and then turning around and suddenly hitting the little devil hard, have you seen it? Even if I lead you to escape, I should also go in the direction of Leopard's Head Mountain, but this is to the southwest, and it is completely in two directions. ”
Liu Cheng took two breaths and then said, "Have you ever beaten a little devil?" Lao Tzu has beaten more little devils than you have seen, we have a plan to escape this time, hehe, boys, if you figure it out, you will admire our boss major company commander even more, he is a god man, learn slowly. ”
A few soldiers with guns were puzzled and just wanted to ask, Liu Cheng found that the little devil was catching up, and he shouted again: "Execute the order, escape to the mountains." ”
Most of the soldiers of the reconnaissance platoon were just selected to join, and they drove to Leopard's Head Mountain, and before they could sit on their buttocks, they hurriedly marched into the woods to fight devils, and then just exchanged fire, they were led by the platoon commander Liu Cheng to flee desperately, the anger and grievance in his heart, just wanted to vent, and was flickered by Liu Cheng to carry the gun and have to desperately escape.
Liu Cheng fled with his brothers for a while, seeing that the little devil behind him didn't follow, he carefully glanced at the surrounding terrain a few times, and suddenly put down his face seriously: "Brothers, this terrain is very beneficial for us to ambush the little devils. Don't give them a respite. Beat me hard. If any bastard dares to flee the battlefield, I'll shoot him. ”
Now these soldiers have clearly seen the true face of Liu Cheng, the platoon commander, and one by one they are convinced to follow the squad leader to find a good hiding point to block the enemy, and are ready to kill the devil fiercely at any time.
As soon as the reconnaissance platoon was hidden, Ichiro Tanaba chased after him with a squadron of little devils.
Standing on a high ground with a telescope raised, he carefully searched in the direction of the enemy's flight, but found no trace of the enemy.
Ichiro Tanaba is a veteran who has experienced many brutal battles. He shook his head and pondered: "Bastard, the speed of the enemy's escape is like a rabbit, they are not the enemy's specially trained troops, but some unbeaten sick men of East Asia. ”
He cautiously sent two search teams again, scattered to the front to search, and he ordered the large force to prepare for battle and grope forward.
Seeing that the enemy's search team was about to approach their position, Liu Cheng whispered an order to the squad leader beside him: "You take ten brothers to kill the search team on the enemy's left flank." ”
He whispered to the second squad leader behind him: "You take a few brothers to eliminate the little devils on the right flank." ”
Liu Cheng ordered the two squad leaders again: "After eliminating the little devil, find a good position to block the enemy on the spot, form a triangle with me to strike the enemy, and we must block the enemy to the boss and lead the troops." Form a package to fry the enemy, and then concentrate firepower to annihilate the little devils.
At this time, the soldiers figured out the commander's intentions. They couldn't help but have a new understanding of their superiors in their hearts, from the hearsay at the beginning, to the current witnesses, from the heart.
The enemy's two search teams were like two sheep's horns sticking out from the front, slowly touching the sides of the front of the position laid out on the flanks.
The first squad leader and the second squad leader saw the enemy approaching step by step, and at the moment when the enemy discovered it, the two wings suddenly aimed at the enemy and opened fire, which caught the searching little devils off guard, some were shot and fell to the ground, and some turned around and fled.
As soon as Ichiro Tanaba saw that he had touched the enemy's position, he excitedly raised his command knife and shouted excitedly: "The warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, in front of them are the vulnerable Shina troops, bravely rush forward, kill them, and destroy them all." ”
The enemy's fire was fierce, and this time Ichiro Tanaba led a valiant and combative force, well armed, including four mortars, eight grenadiers, and two machine guns per squad.
He arrogantly ordered: "Artillery squad, aim at the left and right flanks in front, fire quickly, and wipe them all out." ”
As soon as Liu Cheng saw that the enemy was launching a fierce artillery bombardment on both flanks, he gave a loud order: "The machine gunners aim at the place where the enemy is concentrated and give me a hard blow." ”
A fierce exchange of fire between the enemy and us began, and Liu Cheng's reconnaissance platoon lagged far behind the enemy in terms of weaponry and personnel composition compared with Taniba Ichiro's troops, and the battle was very hard.
Ichiro Tanabata found that the front was the enemy's main position, and he ordered: "Mortars, grenadiers, muzzles aimed at the enemy's main position, fire shells, tear off their positions, and fire quickly, quickly." ”
Ichiro Tanabata used a curved infantry gun, a Taisho 11-type mortar, with a caliber of 70mm, a barrel length of 700mm, and a gun weight of 63kg. Its greatest skill is to kill enemies at close range or behind obstacles on hills.
The position where Liu Cheng's reconnaissance platoon was located was just the best target for the little devil's mortar.
Ichiro Tanabata commanded the artillery to fire more than a dozen shells in a row, raising the dust of Liu Cheng's troops' positions, throwing them high and falling to the ground with a 'bang', destroying the trees and rocks around him in a mess.
The brethren of the reconnaissance platoon, who were killed one person and seriously wounded several in this round of shelling, took a hidden position, lost the cover of trees, and were exposed to the enemy.
Liu Cheng roared angrily: "Brothers of the reconnaissance platoon, we are not bad seeds, we are men who stand and pee, aiming at the enemy and beating me hard." ”
Ichiro Tanaba looked at the enemy on the opposite hillside, whose position had been destroyed by artillery fire, and he shouted and brandished his command knife and shouted: "Onishi, warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, the enemy in front of you, their attacks on other battlefields, sneak up on our brothers, kill our soldiers, steal the military supplies of the Great Japanese Empire, rush up, and kill them." ”
Under the bewitchment of Ichiro Tanabata, the little devil howled with a bayonet and launched a charge, that kind of unstoppable arrogance, like a herd of sheep on the opposite position, waiting for their group of hungry wolves to pounce.
Liu Cheng watched the enemy rush up, and he shouted: "Brothers, from now on, every inch of our position must not be given to the little devils, for the sake of our fathers and villagers who are bullied and enslaved, for the relatives and brothers who fell under the bayonets of the little devils, risk their lives and beat me hard." ”
The soldiers on the reconnaissance platoon position were red-eyed, the machine gunners fell, and the sub-shooters immediately rushed forward, and in front of the enemy, who were several times larger than me, they bravely resisted, the bullets on the battlefield flew sideways, and the brothers suffered several more casualties, and after a fire strike, finally repelled the first charge of the little devils.
Liu Cheng looked at the dead and wounded brothers, and scolded: "You special dead boss, do you really want me to investigate the lives of these brothers?" We fought so fiercely and cruelly, why didn't you do it? If you don't support us, then all of us brothers will die here. ”
At this time, Yan Ruofei led the sharp knife platoon, and hid behind the little devil and on both wings, slowly forming an encirclement of the little devil, he knew that with only two platoons of one hundred and twenty soldiers, it was impossible to completely eliminate the little devil of this squadron.
He was waiting, anxiously waiting for Wang Tao to lead the heavy firepower platoon and rush to reinforcements in time, only by investing a large number of troops can he eliminate the well-armed little devil in front of him one-on-one.
Yan Ruofei didn't fail to see that the reconnaissance platoon's position was fighting very fiercely, but he couldn't act rashly, he wanted to set up a game for the enemy, that is, to force the enemy to recognize that the unit in front of him was a force that had moved from other places, and to make the enemy believe that this unit was just passing by and would not be stationed in this deep mountain for a long time.
Seeing that the firepower of the opposite position was constantly weakening, Tanaba Ichiro ordered the artillery to come up with another round of shelling, and one shell after another rushed out of the barrel, with a piercing whistling, 'boom, boom' kept falling on the position of the reconnaissance platoon, and for a moment the position flames rose into the air, and dust mixed with the stumps of the soldiers flew up and fell.
