Looking at the wounded soldiers who were being carried back one after another, the field health team, which was already overcrowded, also had a headache for these wounded. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 In the end, in order to ensure the safety of these wounded, the infantry brigade had to send them to the county where troops were stationed in the rear.

The cold guns and cold guns along the way, coupled with this 'mine' feast in the early morning, really made the infantry brigades rushing to Zhengzhou really feel the power of these elite detachments of the Eighth Route Army.

Many times, they only know that they have been attacked, but they have no idea who attacked them. Sometimes not even the shadow of the attackers was seen, but their soldiers fell one by one. This kind of invisible and untouchable opponent is indeed a bit demoralizing.

The infantry artillery squadron was transferred from the brigade, and after a single artillery fire, the snipers were indeed gone, and the mines on the road were cleared. But not to mention the delay for a short time, it also led to hundreds of casualties among the engineers and advanced troops.

The commander of the infantry brigade who heard the news really looked a little depressed. As for being angry, it has already been born. Since they set out on their expedition last night, this is not the first time they have encountered this kind of news, and they have not found any sneak attacks.

The infantry brigade responsible for driving out the snipers when the information is returned. These snipers of the Eighth Route Army built individual potholes in the lurking places, which could effectively block their mortar shelling.

As for the infantry guns, they can actually carry one or two hits, but these snipers seem to have completed the task. The Japanese infantry were not given a chance to attack, and by the time they were about to send their infantry to the sniper point, the snipers had already slipped away.

After a short delay, the commander of the infantry brigade finally gave the order to move on. Considering that the spearhead had already lost a lot of soldiers, the infantry brigade and regiment replaced a group of units that served as the spearhead.

Considering that this place is not very far from Zhengzhou, the brigade commander is also very cautious: "It can be seen from the mine array arranged by the Eighth Road before that they already know that we are coming." All the way to the attack, all in order to delay our attack.

Next, your infantry brigade will closely follow the squadron of spearheads, and the infantry artillery squadron that has previously cooperated with you will also be deployed to operate with your brigade. In the event of an attack, a decisive counterattack must be given, understand? ”

'Hey! ’

The captain of the infantry group, who had given the order, followed an infantry squadron back on the road. The scouts, who were lurking in the shadows, quickly reported the news that the Japanese were back on the road to the next ambush point.

The commander of the reconnaissance battalion, who received the report, quickly said: "Order the troops to enter the ambush position, and we will also entertain these little devils who have rushed to die." Troops in the forward positions, ready to engage at any time! ”

It didn't take long for the squadron of spearheads who served as the pioneers of the Japanese army to quickly appear in the sentry's sight. A few scouts hiding in the trenches also calmly watched the sharp soldiers passing under their noses.

Waiting until the infantry squadron that followed the squadron of spearheads, and the squadron of infantry artillery that followed the infantry squadron forward, these scouts lurking in the trenches, watched carefully as these troops stepped into their blasting zone.

With the last infantry artillery squadron to follow, it also stepped into the blasting zone. Several scouts who had already put their hands on the detonator glanced at each other and nodded in unison, "Detonate!" ”

Several detonators were pressed at the same time, and a series of currents were channeled. The highway that had been walked by the squadron and was not dangerous, was once again shrouded in explosions and smoke.

The loud explosion made the squadron of sharp soldiers who were walking in front almost unanimously turn back. Huge fireworks burst into the air, telling the officers and men of these spearhead squadrons that they had just almost brushed shoulders with death.

The loud explosion that came again undoubtedly alarmed the main force of the infantry brigade that followed up. Troops also rushed to the blast area as quickly as possible, hoping to carry out rescue as soon as possible.

It was also at this time that the squadron of spearheads, who had just been immersed in the explosion, suddenly saw bursts of gunfire coming from all directions. On the flat ground, which originally seemed to be in no danger, a soldier of the Eighth Route Army armed with a submachine gun suddenly sprang up.

Hardly giving them much time to react, the Eighth Route Army, which came out of both sides of the road, walked straight to the road where they were located. Many Japanese soldiers were killed by these submachine gunners before they could react.

After the explosion, such a fierce gunfire was heard, which undoubtedly told the main force of the infantry brigade and regiment that came to support later, and the infantry brigade that acted as the vanguard was withstanding the fierce attack of the Eighth Route Army, and they must rush to reinforcements as soon as possible.

'Hurry! Our troops are under attack, speed up and run forward! ’

There were anxious Japanese officers, shouting these words, and at the same time urging the soldiers running on the road to speed up a little faster. If it is late, it is estimated that the infantry brigade in front will almost be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army.

As Japanese reinforcements quickly arrived at the site of the explosion, the assault scouts, who had already completed a round of attack, also quickly returned to the main position not far from the road. Some of the pursuing Japanese infantry also quickly realized that there was a blocking position ahead.

Under these circumstances, the pursuing Japanese stragglers quickly withdrew. Report the situation to the commander of the infantry wing, who came to reinforce one after another. Knowing that there was a blocking position of the Eighth Route Army on the hillside in front, the commander of the infantry brigade was also a little surprised.

But accidents are accidents, thinking that this place is less than ten kilometers away from Zhengzhou, and it is actually understandable that the Eighth Route Army is building a blocking position in this place. After all, they need to be able to delay their march by constantly blocking them!

'Order the 1st Wing, the Field Artillery Squadron, to prepare for the attack at once. It is important to open the passage of the march in the shortest possible time. We've lost a lot of time here, and we can't afford to waste any more precious attacking time. ’

It is clear that the main force of the division and regiment has also set out from Zhongmu, and if they can't rush to open a safe passage for the main force of the division before it arrives. When the time comes, he, the brigade commander, is afraid that he will inevitably be given a training by the division commander.

As the brigade commander issued the combat mission, a heavily armed infantry wing quickly set up an offensive posture in front of the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army. The field artillery squadron that cooperated with its operation also chose artillery positions.

After the tentative attack, it was found out that the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army in front was actually not very many, and the commander of the Japanese brigade who was watching the battle also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He felt that it would not take much time to take this blocking position.

It's just that what they don't know is that the reconnaissance battalion commander, who has been following the movements of the Japanese army, watched the Japanese army prepare to launch a real official attack. Then he said: "Prepare signal flares, and the Japanese attack on both sides of the anti-aircraft machine gun positions to start a surprise attack!" ”

When the Japanese army blew the whistle to charge, groups of Japanese soldiers began to charge at the Eighth Route Army's blocking position under artillery fire. The anti-aircraft machine gun platoon, which had been lurking on the left and right sides of the Japanese army for a long time, was also prepared before firing.

When the Japanese entered the range of anti-aircraft machine guns, to the surprise of the Japanese attacking troops. At this time, two signal flares suddenly shot out on the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army. This surprised the Japanese attack, so what did they do with signal flares?

Just when the commander of the Japanese brigade and the wing commander who were watching the battle in the rear felt a little inexplicable. On the two small dirt slopes on both sides of the road, which seemed to be calm, there were suddenly loud bursts of gunfire and strings of life-threatening tongues of fire.

With the anti-aircraft machine gun imitated by the current arsenal, when adjusted to flat fire, the firing range can also reach 1500 meters. Four anti-aircraft machine guns were deployed in both positions, which basically locked on the Japanese troops on the road and in the rear.

It's a pity that the Japanese army only focused on the Eighth Route Army, which had arranged a blocking position on the hill ahead. But he ignored these two small hills, which seemed to be of little use at all. At this point, the hillside became a deadly trap.

A series of fierce tongues of fire erupted, and huge machine gun bullets directly interrupted the stunned Japanese infantry. As long as they take a bullet, these little devils will be seriously injured if they don't die.

There were experienced Japanese soldiers, and they said with horror on their faces: "Baga, this is an anti-aircraft machine gun!" They turned out to be anti-aircraft machine guns against our infantry! Eight Geya Road, get down! Get down! Artillerymen, we need artillery support! ”

Flesh and blood, even rifle bullets are difficult to resist, let alone such anti-aircraft machine gun bullets!

Looking at some Japanese soldiers who were shot in the head, they directly shot a bullet in the head. When hit on the body, it often punches a large bloody hole. This bloody and brutal strafing caused the Japanese offensive to be halted suddenly.

Even the commander of the Japanese brigade and the wing commander who were staying in the rear to watch the battle at the moment did not expect that several anti-aircraft machine guns of the Eighth Route Army had already been aimed at their rear, which was asking for their safety. As a result, when the machine guns swept in, groups of Japanese soldiers were killed and shattered.

Although most of the soldiers of the 14th Division have experienced the baptism of actual combat. But this is the first time they have encountered this kind of scene of fighting infantry with anti-aircraft machine guns. Such a brutal and bloody massacre really shocked them.

Unless you lie on the ground, you have no chance of surviving even if you are hit by a bullet. At this time, the lethality of the eight anti-aircraft machine guns really shocked and even frightened the attacking Japanese infantry.

On the other hand, staying on the battlefield at the moment, looking at the little devils who were slaughtered on the road, the officers and men of the reconnaissance battalion were very happy and said: "Damn, this anti-aircraft machine gun beating the little devils is really enjoyable!" This machine gun is too powerful! ”

'Nonsense! Use the machine gun to fight the little devil's plane, and beat the infantry of these little devils, this is a knife to kill chickens! ’

In the face of a sudden machine-gun raid, the Japanese infantry brigades, which remained defenseless on the road, suffered heavy losses. For this kind of anti-aircraft machine gun strafing, they could not even fight back, they could only lie on the ground.

Wait until the Japanese artillery who originally aimed the artillery at the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army, and adjust the artillery to the anti-aircraft machine gun positions on both sides. The platoon of anti-aircraft machine guns, which had already emptied two magazines, also quickly withdrew their guns and lifted them up to quickly retreat.

After all, if you really let the little devil's artillery come to cover it with artillery fire a few times, they will also not be able to eat and have to walk around. At this time, you still have to know how to accept it when you see it! (To be continued.) )
