Chapter 312: 'Hunting' at Night!
The 13th Infantry Wing of the Sixth Division, which had been running around for a day, was originally a little flustered about today's march. Just as he was about to rest, he suddenly heard the sound of gunfire, and many officers and soldiers seemed to be very excited about the guns.
It's just that when they drove out of the town and ran to reinforce the outer guards, they heard the gunfire that seemed to have subsided. The attackers disappeared into the night in a very short time.
Originally, there were little devils shouting in pursuit, but some Japanese commanders knew that it was not appropriate to continue the pursuit when the situation was unknown at night. After all, they are less familiar with the terrain than these sneak attackers.
Sending a large force in pursuit may not be able to catch up with these sneak attackers who have oiled their soles. Send a small force in pursuit, and you may eventually encounter an ambush by the other side. Therefore, it is wisest to withdraw to the town at this time.
Wing Commander Nozawa Akira, who was also awakened by the sound of cannons, looked at the corpses that were carried back to the town one after another, and said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "Eight Geya Road!" Are they all the remains of our warriors? Are there any sneak attackers? ”
'Report to the Wing Captain, no! This group of people moved very quickly, and before our artillery could counterattack, the other side had already quickly withdrawn. For security reasons, we did not send troops in pursuit. ’
Listening to the report of a captain, Akira Nozawa wanted to pull out the sneak attacker and cut it down. But he knew that this was war. Every time they entered the Chinese war, the night attack was undoubtedly the battle they hated the most, but they had to face.
At this time, the chief of staff who inspected the battle damage of the wing came over with a sad face and said: "Dazuo, the previous shelling caused the damage to our radio station, and a batch of grain in the baggage team was burned. The remaining grain and grass is only enough for us to last three days. ”
Upon hearing this, Nozawa said with a somewhat gloomy expression: "Eight Grid Tooth Road!" These damn sneak attackers! In this case, we can only withdraw from here, but to speed up and rush to Dangtu. It's a county seat, and there should be supplies.
In addition, starting tomorrow, a brigade of troops will be transferred to search for me in the form of a squadron. I don't believe that these people are carrying supplies so cleanly. When I saw villages and towns, I was given all the strength to collect food. ”
'Hey! ’
As the captain of the wing, Akira Nozawa is well aware of the importance of supplies to the team. But the remaining supplies are only enough for them to support them for three days. Such a reserve of materials is undoubtedly very dangerous, and new materials must be found to replenish it.
In the case of the damage of the radio station, they don't seem to have much choice, all they can do is to rush to Dangtu City as much as possible. At that time, it may be possible to get in touch with the nearest Japanese army as quickly as possible from the river transport wharf near Dangtu.
Of course, they can also withdraw from Bowang from here. But Nozawa felt that if he retreated like this, he was afraid that he would be ridiculed when he returned to the division. With three days of supplies, he still retains a glimmer of hope for victory!
While the little devil was busy cleaning up the mess, the special operations detachment that returned to the ambush site was also a little disappointed to learn that the Japanese had stopped pursuing. After all, they also plan to fish out some little devils to increase the results of the night!
Now that the little devils are not fooled, their arrangement here will be in vain. Thinking of this, many guerrillas also felt a little depressed. But as far as the special operators are concerned, they are used to this kind of wasted effort.
The battlefield is changing rapidly, and it is impossible for the little devils to do things according to their layout!
Thinking of this, the leader of the special operations squad said again: "Comrades of the guerrillas, continue to stand by here, and you guys will change into rifles and go hunting with me." If we don't pursue, then we will harass and focus on the patrols they have placed outside.
Remember, this time it's hunting, not assault, don't take long-range shots in close combat. Now the little devil is in the light, we are in the dark, take a shot to change the place. If the little devils are chasing, bring them here, understand? ”
'Yes, Captain! Hunting little devils at night, we liked it the most! ’
After telling the guerrillas who cooperated with the operation that they would continue to be on standby here, the special operations team that had just returned returned returned to the town again. Looking at the increased patrolling Japanese troops outside the town, I knew that the little devil had increased his vigilance.
'Free hunting! I'd like to see how patient these little devils are. ’
'Yes! ’
The special operators, all of whom had changed into rifles, began to scatter in all directions. After finding the location of the shooting, some special operators soon found the prey. The gunfire rang out again, which surprised the Japanese soldiers in the town again.
Listening to the scattered gunshots around the town, Nozawa said with some anger: "Baga, these Chinese troops are too hateful!" Order the 1st Brigade to expel in a squadron manner and drive these wild dogs away from me!
In addition, let the second brigade be ready for battle, and once the first brigade is ambushed, give me all the rescue with all my might. These damn guerrillas, they want not to let us rest. Tired soldiers, damnable! ”
With Nozawa's order, the first brigade of the town was driven out, and in cooperation with the troops patrolling outside the city, began to implement the tactics of driving away the sneak attackers. In the face of these hordes of little devils, the special combat team members were not afraid at all.
Even the leader of the special operations detachment, who saw this situation, adopted provocative tactics and continuously led these pursuing Japanese squadrons out of the town. The guerrilla tactics of 'the enemy advances and we retreat, and the enemy retreats and we advance' have been brought into full play.
Seeing that every time a gun rang out, a soldier fell, and the pursuing Japanese soldiers were undoubtedly very depressed and angry. Under this provocative attack, the first brigade responsible for driving away was scattered and taken away from the town.
Until a Japanese squadron lured by the leader of the special operations squad personally arrived at the ambush circle of the guerrillas. The guerrillas, who had already heard the gunshots, began to grasp their weapons with some nervousness and stare at the road ahead.
At this time, the leader of the special operations team began to run up the mountain from the road, and soon came to the ambush position. The guerrillas were ordered to prepare for battle, while the other two special combat troops, who cooperated with the lure, continued to run on the road.
Even when they arrived at the ambush circle, one of the special combat team members made the appearance of a leg injury, and was helped away by another special combat team. When the pursuing Japanese troops saw this, the speed of the pursuit was undoubtedly faster.
'Hurry! They are injured and can't run away! Catch it alive! ’
After losing more than 20 people, it was hard to see that there was hope of catching alive, and the Japanese squadron leader who led the team naturally would not let go of this opportunity. It's just that what he doesn't know is that at the moment he is already three or four kilometers away from the town.
Just as these chasing little devils watched the two sneak attackers supporting each other, they began to run towards the mountain next to them. Immediately pick up the pace and prepare to go up the mountain to start a search. But at this moment, a scene that shocked them happened.
The leader of the special operations team, who was lurking in the trenches, said to one of the guerrillas: "Pull! ”
The bomb, which had been planted under the road, soon exploded violently. At the same time, the special combat team members who replaced their rifles with machine guns took advantage of the flames of the explosion to pour bullets at the little devil as fast as they could.
This sudden explosion, coupled with the sound of gunfire on both sides of the road, made the pursuing Japanese squadron quickly realize that they were in ambush. It's a pity that after the explosion and a round of shooting, there are not many Japanese soldiers who survived.
The leader of the special operations squad knew that he had to fight quickly and immediately said: "Blow the trumpet and rush down to deal with them!" ”
Accompanied by the guerrillas around him, he blew the suona he carried, even if the sound was a little weird, but the guerrillas knew that this was the meaning of the charge. Even a few special combat team members put down their machine guns and pulled out their pistols and rushed down.
Looking at the guerrillas rushing down from both sides, the surviving little devils also knew that they were only afraid of the end. Some people want to escape, and naturally some people want to resist. But in the face of the outnumbered guerrillas, their resistance was futile.
Because you don't want to take prisoners, you can shoot down the little devils who can breathe. When there was no longer a single panting imp, the rest of the partisans looked very excited.
This is a squadron of little devils, hundreds of little devils! It's so easy, to be wiped out here by them in such a short time. Didn't you say that the little devil was very good? Looking at it like this, it doesn't seem to be as magical as it was rumored!
On the other hand, the leader of the special operations squad who commanded the operation immediately shouted: "Don't be in a daze! The little devil's reinforcements will arrive soon, and everyone will clean up the battlefield as fast as possible. Remember, I stripped everything off the little devil.
In addition, the bodies of our sacrificed comrades were carried away first, and the wounded comrades were simply bandaged and quickly withdrawn. The armed engineering team should go to the front to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. As soon as a little devil arrives, shoot immediately. ”
With the order given by the leader of the special operations team, the guerrillas who were excited before came to their senses, and now is not the time to be happy! Everyone began to get busy quickly according to the division of labor.
Looking at those fallen comrades-in-arms, these guerrillas also felt a little sad. But they all understood that there was no reason for immortality in war. Fortunately, there seem to be only a few guerrillas who died tonight.
The wounded partisans, after a simple bandage, became the first troops to withdraw from the battlefield. The rest of the guerrillas skillfully stripped the little devils naked. Keep one crotch cloth and take everything else with you.
At this moment, hearing the explosions and fierce gunfire of the ambush battle, the Japanese troops nearby knew that a pursuing squadron had encountered an ambush. Soon, the troops closest to this Japanese squadron quickly moved to this side for reinforcements.
It's a pity that when the reinforcements arrived, there didn't seem to be any living pigs except the white pig carcasses all over the ground. The little devils of a squadron were completely wiped out in this short period of time.
Reinforcements arrived one after another, and searched the vicinity, but found that there was no trace of the ambusher at all. In desperation, the searching troops could only withdraw, intending to wait for tomorrow dawn to have a good search.
At least in the eyes of the Japanese army, the other side was able to annihilate a Japanese squad so quickly, and even used mortars at night. In the eyes of many Japanese troops, there was at least one main regiment of resistance forces nearby.
It's just that if you can find out the other party, many little devils still don't know the bottom of their hearts! (To be continued.) )
