Chapter 247: Who's Stronger
After dark, Jie Zhenguo ordered a battle group of three people to prepare for the battle. After Kui Shinobu led his troops into the woods, he did not advance with great fanfare, but asked his subordinates to look for favorable terrain to hide in detachments. The time will test the will and patience of both sides. The two sides may have been tacitly acknowledging throughout the night, quietly waiting for the dawn. Both sides knew in their hearts that the principle of blocking and killing was that whoever exposed the target first would mean death. Blindness, roughness, and impatience all mean that death can come at any time.
The sky was getting brighter, and a thin mist filled the woods. The rainy season arrives, and the abundant rain brings moisture to the vegetation, and the branches are lush and verdant, but there is a smell of rotting leaves in the air. The sky was still overcast, and it was rare to see extravagant sunshine. A subordinate on the Japanese side reported: "Your Excellency, last night, we all entered the Devil's Mountain, and we were in a condescending position. Each detachment reported that the special combat team of the Eighth Route Army still had no movement, and it was difficult to judge whether the enemy was approaching! ”
"I feel that the enemy is approaching, excessive silence means danger, and I can already smell the enemy. Orders the detachments not to expose their targets lightly, and we must compare patience and will with the enemy. Whether you can defeat your opponent or not, details determine success or failure! "What Shinobu Kui said is not wrong, the key is whether his subordinates can do what he asks, this is the most critical. Airborne endured looking at the rolling mountains and the forest sea, the pride of showing off his skills churned in his heart, and as a killer he liked a quiet and fearful atmosphere.
On the side of the Eighth Route Army, a subordinate reported: "Squadron leader, if nothing else, the Japanese special combat team has entered Devil's Mountain and occupied the commanding heights according to our intentions. Jie Zhenbang nodded and said: "Although we are at a disadvantage, we have a general understanding of the scope of the Japanese special combat team, which creates conditions for us to focus on attacking the Japanese army, and orders each group to launch a free attack." This Japanese special combat team is well-trained, and I just went up the hill to check, and they are well hidden. ”
In the sniper area ahead, the battle is quietly unfolding. At a sniper point, three members of the Eighth Route Army's special combat team were concealed in a triangular battle formation. The player in front of him gestured to the two players behind him to pay attention to the direction of 10 o'clock 600 meters away. Soon, the front team members took off their steel helmets and slowly lifted them. At this moment, the gun rang out at 10 o'clock, and the bullet hit the steel helmet accurately, and made a crisp sound. At 10 o'clock, the Japanese sniper was the first to expose the target, and a member of the team on the right fired a gunshot, and the Japanese sniper was shot in the head. But at 10 o'clock, gunshots rang out again, and the team member was shot in the head and killed.
At this time, the gunshots of the team members on the left side rang out, and another Japanese sniper was killed. The player on the left climbed to the right side, and saw that the comrade on the right was shot in the eyebrow bone and knew that he had died. The team members gestured to the rear to inform them that the Japanese snipers were in teams of two. The news quickly spread to Jie Zhenbang's command position, "Order all combat groups, Japanese snipers are in teams of two, pay attention to the counterattack of the Japanese army, and do not easily expose the target." Jie Zhenbang continued: "Inform all teams that the concealment performance of the Japanese army's uniforms is not good, and you must be patient and carefully identify." ”
The battle began like this, with the occasional gunshot or two, each of which was a sign of death. Another group of team members found that the target was suspicious at two o'clock, but they could not judge or determine. The three members of the team waited patiently, and two hours passed, and at two o'clock the target was hiding two Japanese snipers, one of whom was a Japanese sniper, felt a strange itch on his face and groped with his hand, and this small act led to death. The snipers of the Eighth Route Army in front of the breakthrough opened fire first, and then quickly hidden. Another Japanese sniper reacted extremely quickly, and the bullet hit the position of the sniper in front of him.
When the Japanese snipers fired, they also revealed their own position. A member of the team in the back fired a gunshot, hitting the Japanese sniper on the shoulder. Within about 3 kilometers of the east and south sides of the Devil's Mountain, there was no scene of fierce battle between the two sides, but the cruelty was well known to both sides. Two days later, the combat capability of the Japanese special combat team was noticeably reduced, and the overall quality of both sides was manifested. Whether it is the training methods or the quality of individual soldiers, with the loss of time, the weakness of the Japanese snipers' rigidity has been exposed.
In the evening of that day, a subordinate reported to Jie Zhenbang: "After two days of fighting, we have basically figured out the rules and tactics of the Japanese special combat team. Japanese snipers usually support each other in pairs, their shooting skills are good, but their overall quality is deficient, and this is a problem with training methods. Japanese snipers revealed clues after 3 hours of hiding in the spot. On the first day of the battle, we lost 6 members and 4 were wounded. On the second day of the battle, we lost 3 members and 4 were wounded. ”
"Squadron leader, according to the statistics of each group, the Japanese casualties are at least about 30 people." Jie Zhenbang did not squeak, he knew in his heart that with the decline in the combat capability of the Japanese special combat team, the situation would get better and better. He arranged in his heart what kind of person the other party's commander was, and he could cultivate such a strong special combat team, which showed that this person was not simple. Jie Zhenbang had a hunch that this opponent was probably going to fight, and his hands began to itch. The desire to compete with the masters is what he is looking forward to.
Also in the evening of that day, a Japanese special combat team leader reported: "Your Excellency, the special combat team of the Eighth Route Army is very strong, and our side has lost 22 people and 9 wounded in two days of fighting. It is estimated that the casualties of the Eighth Route Army's special combat team are more than 20. "I'll go out tomorrow in person, and the location is the 12th hiding point." "Your Excellency, this is too dangerous! Do you report to the command on our situation! "The warriors of the Great Japanese Empire will not back down, I am here to compete with each other, you can arrange it!"
On the morning of the next day, Jie Zhenbang received a report that all three members of the No. 15 area were killed. "The master of the Japanese army has finally appeared, and the deputy captain will command in my place, and I will meet him." In the afternoon, Jie Zhenguo entered Area 15, carrying two sniper rifles on his back and presetting two sniper positions at an interval of 3 meters. Time passed minute by minute, and Jie Zhenguo quickly discovered a suspicious point, but quickly judged that this was a flaw deliberately exposed by the other party.
The opponent can shoot and kill 3 team members, and it is impossible to show the flaws so hastily. It turns out that Shinobu Kui uses the bait of the corpse seat of a fallen soldier to deliberately expose the target and attract the attention of the other party. Just now he shot and killed 3 snipers in a row, and that's how he did. The other party deliberately exposed the target intentionally, and the real killer must be waiting for the opportunity nearby. Jie Zhenguo observed repeatedly, there were no clues left and right on the suspicious points, and he knew that he had met an opponent.
Two hours have passed, and the suspicion on the opposite side is still obvious, but there is still no movement on the left and right positions. Similarly, Shinobu Kui also realized that he had met an opponent, and he deliberately exposed the bait, but the other party was indifferent, and it was obvious that the other party saw the flaw. Shinobu Kui immediately became highly focused and searched carefully in the scope. The two sides held each other for a long time, and Jie Zhenbang had an idea and decided to use the opponent's bait to make a fuss. He put the steel helmet in front of him, fired a shot at the suspicious point, and then rolled over to the position of the sniper rifle on the other side and quickly took aim.
At this moment, Shinobu Kui's gunshot, the bullet accurately hit the steel helmet, and at the moment when Shinobu Kui lowered his head to hide, Zhenbang's gunfire rang out. The bullet passed through Shinobu Kui's left ear, and his left ear was half-pulled off. In the battle that day, due to the decline in the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, 16 snipers were killed and 5 wounded, including Shinobu Kukai. On the side of the Eighth Route Army, only 3 were killed and 5 were wounded. After dark, Shinobu Kui had a bandage around his left ear, and he looked depressed.
The wounding of the chief officer greatly affected the morale of his subordinates, and in addition to the one-day battle, more than 20 people were killed and wounded, and half of the special combat team had already suffered casualties. "Report to the team leader, the command has called, we have completed the task. Command us to withdraw. At this time, Shinobu Kui lost the confidence to continue the battle and said, "Order all detachments to concentrate and prepare for retreat." "Captain, the Eighth Route Army is very cunning, if we find that we have the intention of retreating, we will definitely intercept it!"
"All the wounded stay and continue the fight!" Shinobu Kui's cold words were like a holy decree, and all the wounded were silent when they heard it, this was their fate. The wounded knew in their hearts that even if they did not leave a block, they would probably have to cut themselves, and it would be a burden to retreat with the wounded. In the middle of the night, Shinobu Kui led the remnants of the army, using more than a dozen wounded bait, and quietly retreated northward, their purpose was to retreat to the edge of the Yangtze River and make warships back.
The next morning, Jie Zhenbang received a report from his subordinates that the Japanese brigade had fled, leaving only the wounded to block the attack. Jie Zhenbang regretted it and did not expect that the Japanese army would choose to escape. The Japanese used the wounded to block the attack, and the next battle was simpler. In the headquarters of the 3rd Corps in Yunshui County, Ouyang Jian listened to Mu Shixiong's report and said: "It was a beautiful fight, although it did not destroy this Japanese special combat team, but it dealt a heavy blow and destroyed the prestige of the Japanese. At the very least, the Japanese special combat team will be frightened when it encounters our special combat team in the future. In addition, the Japanese army will no longer send troops into the west to harass and fight, and this is the result we want. ”
"Ordered Jie Zhenbang to be temporarily stationed in Chaling, to assist the 1st Engineer Regiment in the defense, and in addition to taking the initiative to attack the Japanese troops in the north. At present, the situation of the war has changed significantly, and the Japanese army is no longer capable of attacking. The Military Commission ordered us that in the next step, we should change from passive defense to active defense and completely crush the Japanese offensive. I developed a falcon plan, and you personally led the team to carry out the plan. The specific action plan will be personally deployed by Chief of Staff He. "Yes, yes!" Mu Shixiong immediately became excited when he heard this.
In the headquarters of the Japanese army in Jiujiang County, the traces of Kujing Shinobi's left ear bandaging are very obvious and eye-catching. "Your Excellency, the Commander, I have failed to live up to your expectations, please Commander sanction me!" "Kujing-kun, entering the western harassment operation, your special combat team has completed the task excellently. Special operations are a new mode of operation, and through the competition with the special combat team of the Eighth Route Army, we have gained experience and understood our own shortcomings, and this result is very good. ”
Commander Takakura Youjie said in a kind tone: "The Dispatch Army Command attaches great importance to special operations, and you lead your troops back to Shanghai and report to the commander in person." Special operations are extraordinary, and commanders need to greatly strengthen your combat forces. Setbacks are inevitable, you have to pick yourself up and build the days of merit that are to come! "Thank you Commander for your kindness, your subordinates will never let you down!"
