The marching road, which was originally in a nervous mood, suddenly found that there were no mines. The little devils who pushed the front to act as a pioneer www.biquge.info also felt that they were protected by Anameasu, and finally they didn't have to worry about the deadly mines.

After nearly five kilometers of travel, the frightened little devil was finally able to confirm that there really seemed to be no mines on the road. Thinking of this, the vanguard infantry brigade, which had been delayed for a long time, quickly ordered the troops to speed up.

It's just that they don't know at all that there are no mines at this distance, and it's not that the reconnaissance detachment has no mines in their hands. It's about giving these little devils a little sweetness, and finally giving them a bigger 'surprise'.

The troops of a reconnaissance battalion were concentrated, and the reconnaissance regiment commander who was responsible for interdicting the raid was located, after seeing a suitable terrain for an ambush. It was also decided to annihilate the vanguard infantry brigade of the little devils before the war.

This time, they received the order to attack and harass the main force of the Japanese army. But how to do it, He Zhengdao does not ask. In the process of attacking, if there are suitable fighters, He Zhengdao will naturally not oppose the reconnaissance group to fight a small-scale encirclement and annihilation battle.

The vanguard infantry brigade that was speeding up was not aware that they were slowly widening the distance with the troops following up. Even if the distance between it and the follow-up troops was only five or six kilometers, it was enough for the reconnaissance battalion to fight an encirclement and annihilation battle.

I always thought that the Eighth Route Army had just sent a small detachment to use mines to stop them from advancing. But he didn't expect that the Eighth Route Army's attack squad would dare to attack their idea of an infantry brigade.

After all, in the eyes of many Japanese troops, if the Chinese troops wanted to encircle and annihilate one of their infantry brigades, they had to arrange at least one regiment of troops. With so many troops, it is not easy to retreat if they want to fight a blockade.

If you don't evacuate, you will be entangled by the Japanese wing that is following the infantry brigade. If they are entangled, these ambushed troops may be annihilated. For this, the infantry brigades, marching, did not fear that they would be ambushed.

The reconnaissance battalion commander who was staying at the ambush point stood halfway up the mountain and looked at the road ahead and asked, "How long will it take for the little devil to reach our ambush point?" Are the companies ready for battle? ”

'Battalion commander, it's been ready for a long time! As for the little devils, we are already less than two kilometers away. Looking at their appearance, they seemed to be really relieved, the outpost team and the follow-up troops were only a hundred meters apart. ’

'Good! Tell a few company commanders that we only have twenty minutes at most. Within twenty minutes, I must be able to destroy these little devils. When the time comes, regardless of the situation, it is necessary to quickly withdraw from the fighting. ’

'Yes, Battalion Commander! ’

Under the noses of the main forces of the Japanese army, it really took a lot of courage to ambush their vanguard brigade. Fortunately, the officers and men of the reconnaissance brigade have always been quite bold. Whenever they have the chance, they don't mind destroying a few more little devils.

Just when the troops in the ambush position were all lurking in the previously simple hidden fortifications, quietly waiting for the arrival of the little devil. The outpost squad of the Japanese army, already in the sight of the ambush troops.

The squad responsible for outposts for the follow-up troops also entered the ambush point in the form of jogging. Looking at the terrain here, it seems a little dangerous. The leader of the squad looked at it and said, "Reconnoiter it with machine gun fire!" ”

'Hey! ’

One of the infantrymen, who was carrying a machine gun with a crooked handle, quickly pulled the trigger down the hill with the machine gun in his hand. The sound of gunfire did not cause concern among the follow-up troops, who seemed to know that this was a fire reconnaissance.

As for the reconnaissance units lurking on the sides of the road, as well as in the mountains. The officers and men of the reconnaissance brigade are already familiar with this kind of fire reconnaissance of the little devils. Even if a bullet hits the front of the trench, it will not alarm anyone.

Seeing that a magazine was running out and there was no movement on the mountain, the squad leader waved his hand and said, "Keep going!" ”

The gunfire stopped and the outpost team continued to advance, and the vanguard infantry brigade, which was jogging to follow, continued to move at a constant pace. For these little devils, they can more or less judge what those gunshots are all about.

At this moment, many of the scouts lurking in the roadside trenches clenched the assault rifles they had just been issued to them. This assault rifle is also slowly replacing the new rifle that was previously issued to them.

As the most elite unit of the independent column, He Zhengdao has always hoped that the reconnaissance brigade will become a real special operations brigade. The weapons used by the Sabre Special Operations Team, they were also the first troops that could be distributed.

Considering that next, the reconnaissance brigade needs to face stronger battles than ever. He Zhengdao also intends to strengthen the firepower of these combat units. In each reconnaissance detachment, three assault rifles of the new type were equipped.

The firepower of this assault rifle also slowly replaced the submachine guns that were originally equipped with them. This time, when the reconnaissance battalion made an ambush plan, more self-confidence also came from these new weapons that had just been issued to them.

Uninterrupted fire strikes, during a surprise attack, can naturally leave the enemy breathless. Moreover, the ambush troops were only about 100 meters away from the road, some of them. Once the gun is fired, it can rush to the highway in a short time to carry out encirclement and annihilation.

The Japanese vanguard brigade, unaware of the crisis, trotted along the road at a neat pace. Compared with these trotting soldiers, the captain of the Japanese infantry brigade was naturally at the back of the team, riding a war horse and easily following the troops.

For these highly trained Japanese soldiers, this kind of rapid march under light equipment is also a habitual thing. With an outpost team at the forefront of reconnaissance, they will also be relatively relieved to follow up.

But they didn't know that at this moment, several snipers had locked on several Japanese officers on horses. The reconnaissance battalion commander who stayed next to them looked at these Japanese officers who were advancing easily, but showed a sneer.

'A few of you, wait for the next one to pick one.' Kill these guys before you go to war! ’

'Yes, Battalion Commander! Rest assured! If we can't hit such a live target, it would be too embarrassing! ’

The members of the sniper team all replied with confidence. While they were slowly moving the muzzles of their guns, the battalion commander in charge of the command carefully watched the marching Japanese army and slowly entered the ambush circle he had set up.

'Do it! ’

Simply two words were spoken, and the sniper, who had already locked on to the target, fired the first shot of the ambush battle. The crisp sound of gunfire caused confusion among the Japanese troops marching neatly.

What shocked many Japanese infantry even more was that the captain and several adjutants who were marching in the ranks also fell off their horses almost at the same time. Such a sudden attack really overwhelmed these marching Japanese troops.

An experienced military cao immediately said: "In case of attack, open a defensive formation!" ”

Although these officers gave correct and timely orders, according to the previous orders, the gunfire of the sniper squad was the order for the general attack. The ambush troops, who were hiding in the trenches on the side of the road, immediately lifted their camouflage.

The light machine gun swept towards the Japanese troops on the road at the first time, and in such a short distance, the little devils on the road were simply taken by surprise. As for the fighters of the commando, at the same time pulled the assault rifle in their hands.

The crisp sound of point shooting knocked the stunned little devils to the ground. The fighters, who still used submachine guns, also followed behind the commandos, and sprinkled the bullets in their hands like water on the Japanese troops on the road.

Ambushed at such a close distance, plus the firepower of the attacking Eighth Route Army was so strong. Most of the little devils who are only armed with rifles can't effectively block at all, and can only find ways to dodge those deadly bullets.

By the time the fighters of the assault team had already divided the Japanese troops on the road, the follow-up troops continued to clear the remaining Japanese troops on the road. Snipers staying in the mountains pay more attention to the battle situation on the road, sniping dangerous targets from time to time.

As long as there are little devils, who hit favorable terrain and are ready to counterattack, they will be taken care of by snipers. The little devil's machine gun can't start at all, and how can he form an effective counterattack with the rifle in his hand alone?

The infantry wing, which was advancing behind the vanguard brigade, heard the sudden sound of gunfire from the front and immediately realized that the vanguard brigade was under attack. The Japanese wing commander immediately said: "Cavalry squadron, quickly attack to support the infantry brigade!" ”

After the order was given, the cavalry squadron, which was marching with the infantry wing, immediately flapped the horses that straddled and rushed to the place where the vanguard was ambushed. It's just that the cavalry brigade has traveled less than two kilometers, and the leading cavalry feels like they are flying.

'Yaga! There are mines! ’

The cavalry that followed up quickly choked their horses and prepared to stop. As a result, there were still cavalrymen, who kept stepping on the mines planted, and even men and horses were blown up. This situation also made the supporting cavalry squadron leader angry.

'Yaga! How can there be mines here? Didn't the Pioneer Brigade just pass through here? ’

But they knew that not long after the Pioneer Brigade passed, the reconnaissance team lurking here had laid a minefield of nearly a kilometer here. There was only one purpose, which was to stop the Japanese army from supporting the ambushed vanguard brigade.

Looking at the cavalry struggling in the minefield, the cavalry stopping behind the minefield, I felt somewhat lucky. Faced with the sudden appearance of a minefield on the road, even if they wanted to rush to support as soon as possible, they were only afraid that they would be powerless.

'Quick, let the engineer brigade send a squadron over and quickly clear the mines ahead!' ’

It is not clear how long this minefield is, but the cavalry squadron leader looked at the farthest mine that exploded, all a few hundred meters away. He somewhat understood that this minefield was only a little longer than he had imagined.

If these mines are not cleared, his cavalry squadron is estimated to be buried here, and they may not be able to wade through this minefield. Thinking about this clearly, even if the cavalry squadron leader wants to rush to support as soon as possible, he knows that he is powerless!

The only thing he can hope for now is that the Vanguard Brigade will hold out for a while longer. In any case, it will take a little time for the other side to destroy one of their infantry brigades in one go.

But to their disbelief, just over ten minutes later, the fierce gunfire in front of them subsided. Is this the end of the battle? Or the troops of the ambush, ending the ambush? (To be continued.) )
