Chapter 45: Moving the Walls

The submachine gun in the hands of the Japanese soldiers who "opened fire" and deceived the corpses rang out, and with the sound of dense gunfire, the "trapped Japanese soldiers" who were originally fighting fiercely with the enemy troops on the opposite side also turned around and joined the ranks of the shooting and killing squad. The Japanese second lieutenant, who had already realized that something was wrong, only had time to shout out the plan, and he was the first to bear the brunt of the defeat and was beaten into a hornet's nest, and the Japanese bolt-action rifle was immediately superior to the submachine gun in the mercenary's hand.

A squad of more than 50 Japanese soldiers was no more, but they were faced with more than 20 Thomson submachine guns and more than 30 "Japanese soldiers" to shoot supplementally. The flying bullets hit the human body and splashed a large cloud of blood mist, and the blood mist was also mixed with the shredded flesh and fragments of military uniforms carried by the bullets, and the sight of blood and flesh flying in front of them made the mercenaries who pretended to be corpses more excited, and the accuracy of their shots became more accurate.

"Stop shooting, stop shooting." The "corpse" who shot first raised the submachine gun in his hand to signal a ceasefire, and the Japanese spearhead squad that rushed out of the valley had already been killed by the bullets they fired. The "corpses" and the trapped "Japanese soldiers" looked at the Japanese soldiers they had killed, with a triumphant smile on their faces, the Japanese army was still on the other side of the valley, and it was not time to cheer. A fiercer battle awaited them, and the mercenaries, who had no time to rest, began to move the corpses on the ground, preparing to create the illusion of being besieged again to confuse the Japanese army.

In order to be able to withstand the attack of a whole Japanese army brigade at the mouth of the valley, when Yan Wudao left the airborne field, he deliberately asked his mercenaries to carry two pieces of armor steel plates of the steel fortress on their backs, Yan Wudao looked down on these iron guys from the bottom of his heart, but Yu Dazhi, who was far away in Qinglongping, told him about the strong protective ability of this thing through the radio countless times, so Yan Wudao ordered his mercenaries to bring more than 200 pieces of armor over, once the ambushed Japanese brigade attacked this side, this thing may really block their way.

The Japanese brigade, which was 2 miles away from the spear squad, got what it wanted, and the Sato brigade without the spearhead squad did not find Zhao Zhi and them lurking on the ridge, but Sato Guard, who was walking in the middle of the team, always felt that something was not quite right. "Stop advancing" Sato Beibei suddenly raised his arms to signal the troops to stop advancing, and the well-trained soldiers immediately raised their guns and dispersed, taking advantage of the surrounding terrain as a cover to assume a posture of vigilance.

Looking at the performance of his soldiers, Sato Bingwei nodded with satisfaction, the gunfire on the other side of the valley has not stopped, which means that Koizumi's squadron has not given up resistance, as for why they can't be contacted by radio, Sato Bingwei estimates that the radio station was broken during the battle or the radio soldier has been killed. "The first wave of Yoshino's squad entered the valley, and after confirming that there was no danger, the brigade quickly passed." At the mouth of the valley, there are safety marks left by the spearhead squad, but Sato Beiwei does not dare to be careless, it is better to be laughed at for being cowardly than to lose his life.

The Yoshino team, who had been assigned to be the vanguard, dodged the main road and walked quickly against the mountain wall, this not very long valley did not take them much time, and soon they saw corpses all over the ground and "soldiers of the Koizumi squadron who were fighting bloodily". The soldiers of the Koizumi squadron, who were actively resisting, made Yoshino Yoshiki feel reassured, and finally came in time, looking at the corpses all over the ground to know the fierceness of the battle, Yoshino Yoshiki did not hesitate to send someone to the other side of the valley with a signal flag to send a safety signal.

Sato Guard, who had been holding a telescope and looking at the valley, saw the safety signal sent by the soldiers of Yoshino's squad with the signal flag, so he ordered the troops to pass through this valley quickly, but his Sato brigade had nearly a thousand soldiers, and it was impossible to pass through the valley at once. Just when Sato Bei was not urging his soldiers to speed up, what he had been worrying about finally came true, and the Yoshino squad flag soldier waving the signal flag suddenly fell to the ground like a severed stake, and the blood mist sprayed from his back was unusually eye-catching.

"Stop moving forward and go back" Sato Guard, who was walking in the middle of the line, happened to see the strange appearance of the flag soldier as if possessed by a fairy, and the sudden and violent gunfire at Taniguchi made him even more frightened. "Go back, go back" Under the strong order and command of Sato Guard, the soldiers of Sato's brigade began to retreat for unknown reasons, but at this moment, the Thunder Engineers, who were alert to the Japanese army, had already detonated the explosives and mines they had planted.

"Boom" "Boom" The explosives and mines in the valley were detonated one after another, and the actual killing effect could not be seen clearly in the smoke, and the mercenaries lurking on the ridge were not ambiguous, and threw more than a dozen grenades into the valley one after another. The smoke from the big explosion was torn apart by the explosion made by the grenade, and Zhao Zhi and others on the ridge finally saw the situation in the valley clearly, the Japanese troops in the valley were really miserable, and the valley more than ten meters long was stained red with blood.

Although before the explosion, Sato Beiwei noticed the abnormality of the flag soldier and ordered his brigade to retreat in advance, but unfortunately he still did not avoid the fact that he was bombed. His entire front squad was engulfed in the explosion, at least 200 or so soldiers were killed or wounded, and the soldiers close to the front squad were also hit by the rubble and air to varying degrees, in other words, at least close to 300 people in his brigade were incapacitated.

"Withdraw, withdraw," Sato Guard, whose thigh had been knocked out by the rubble, shouted loudly in pain, and the dusty soldiers retreated the way they came under his command, and the wounded who had lost their combat effectiveness were left unattended, and it was only up to their own personal luck. The explosives and mines planted in the valley did not play their intended role, which made Zhao Zhi a little depressed, but this is war, no one is smooth sailing in the war, not even Zhao Zhi, a person with decades of advanced consciousness.

"Machine guns fire, snipers look for their commanders, machine gunners, gunners to shoot freely." Zhao Zhi and Tang Lei's Browning machine guns arranged on the ridge began to form crossfire to intercept the Japanese troops who withdrew from the valley, and the Browning's rapid bullets allowed Sato Beiwei to find the truth of the matter, and it was actually Thunder's troops who set up an ambush here, because he was too familiar with the sound of this American Browning machine gun, and only Thunder's troops were equipped with this machine gun in Burma.

Four Browning machine guns took turns strafing Taniguchi, causing heavy casualties to the Sato brigade, which was in a hurry to exit the valley, and even so, less than half of the Japanese soldiers who were able to exit Taniguchi safely were not half of the soldiers they set out. In the face of such casualties, Sato Beiwei wanted to cry without tears, until now he has not been able to figure out how many troops Thunder used to ambush here, the only thing that is certain is that the spearhead team that went out to explore the way and the Yoshino team that has passed through the valley will not come back.

At this point in the battle, both sides seemed to be restrained, using small arms all the time, and no mortars, grenadiers, bazookas, or anything else appeared. Zhao Zhi didn't use Bazooka because he thought it was unnecessary, Browning's barrage alone was enough for the Japanese army to drink a pot, and there was no need to do it again. Sato Beiwei didn't use mortars and grenadiers, that's because he didn't use them, and the snipers under Zhao Zhi all regarded the Japanese soldiers who operated these things as their first targets, and the mortars were there, and the Japanese soldiers who dared to pick it up were now corpses.

Without grenadiers, machine gun fire, and mortars, Sato Beiwei lost control of the battlefield, and in the face of Thunder's super firepower, Sato Bingwei couldn't find a way to turn the situation around for a while. "Fortify the defense, fortify the defense" Sato Bingwei ordered the soldiers to fortify the defense, and at the same time ordered the radio soldiers to report the matter of the thunder ambush back to the wing headquarters, of course, Sato Bingwei also expected that after the wing received the telegram, he would send reinforcements to take them back.

Sato Bingwei didn't know that Zhao Zhi was repeating his old tricks again, and deliberately did not let the sniper kill Sato Bingwei's radio soldiers, in order to give Sato Bingwei a chance to send back information to the Japanese army. Zhao Zhi didn't care about being known by the 25th Army that he was coming, what he was afraid of was that the 25th Army didn't know that he had come, and morale when fighting against the enemy was very important, Zhao Zhi believed that the record of leading people to ambush one squadron after another of the Japanese army here was enough to make the 25th Army panic, and seize its ambition before fighting, which was Zhao Zhi's intention.

As Yan Wudao began to break into the valley, Yan Wudao, who had a steel armor plate wall in his hand, caused a lot of pressure on the Sato brigade, and the bullets fired by the Japanese army did not work on the armor plate wall at all, but the bullets fired by the mercenaries through the plate wall shooting port caused the Japanese casualties to continue to increase. Using the steel plates attached to the tanks and armored vehicles as cover, it was the first time that Sato Beiwei had seen such a strange scene, and a steel plate wall four meters long and two meters high was approaching little by little, even people with monstrous war intentions could not help but be afraid.

Yan Wudao himself didn't expect that one of his unintentional actions would cause such a situation, and under the hard work of several strong mercenaries, the wall moved to a position less than a hundred meters away from Sato's brigade. There are more than a dozen firing ports on the board wall that can only be played out with one muzzle, and the soldiers of Sato's brigade are unable to shoot bullets into this firing port no matter how good their marksmanship is, not to mention that under the suppression of the mercenaries' round-robin firepower, they have almost no chance to straighten up and raise their guns to shoot.

"Damn, it seems that Lao Tzu's mobile board wall is powerful, and the next time I meet a little devil and play positional warfare with us, Lao Tzu will erect more than a dozen board walls outside the fortifications, and that is really a win or a loss." Seeing that the situation was good, Yan Wudao snorted excitedly, and had already calculated in his heart that when this battle was over, he must find his own husband to get some of this kind of armor steel plate, this thing is really easy to use.
