Chapter 24: Taste Our Strength

Qiao Youhua picked up the rifle of the ghost soldier who was killed by him through the heart, and led Xu Yu'er, who was sweet in his heart, to leave the house through the hole in the wall prepared in advance.

Several devil soldiers rushed in shouting, probably finding the corpses of their companions, and they scolded and roared angrily one by one, and at this moment, Qiao Youhua quietly threw a grenade through the hole in the wall.

In the dark room, the squeaky and smoking of the melon grenade was particularly dazzling, and the eyes of the four devil soldiers who entered the room were wide open, and they were drowned out by the futile explosion before they could let out a terrified roar.

After the explosion, all four devils were killed.

Qiao Youhua pulled Xu Yu'er, who was still a little stunned, and quickly disappeared into the vast night.

Three puppet soldiers and a devil chased a black shadow and rushed into a private house, but when they just entered, a violent explosion suddenly occurred inside, and all four people were killed.

In the village, almost the same scene is playing out, the members of the Dragon's Tooth Task Force are like deadly ghosts in the dark night, and more and more Japanese puppet soldiers are dying in unconventional tactics such as curtain battles, sparrow battles, and tunnel battles.

In the renovated Zhengcun complex, the Japanese army's superiority in strength and firepower could not be brought into play at all, but fell into passivity everywhere, and the casualties were extremely heavy.

Two hours later, the more than 400-day puppet army that had been majestic and high-spirited and rushed into the village with the belief of victory took the initiative to withdraw.

Captain Sasaki couldn't believe his eyes, because he found that the more than two hundred subordinates who launched the attack alive were now only about half left, that is, in more than two hours, more than half of the attacking troops of his four infantry squads had been lost?

What kind of net is hidden in this small Zheng Village? Why is it that the Imperial Japanese Army, which is brave and good at fighting, invincible all the way, invincible and invincible, arrived here, but it was completely unable to exert its amazing combat power?

Sasaki can't figure it out, really can't figure it out.

A Japanese lieutenant who was in charge of leading the attack came to Captain Sasaki with a black and gray face, panting, and bowed his head in fear and said: "Sir, the cunning Shina people are everywhere, attacking the imperial army everywhere, and the dark night has greatly weakened the combat effectiveness of our warriors, which is why there are so many casualties!" ”

After speaking, the Japanese lieutenant lowered his head in shame.

Captain Sasaki, who has always been polite to him, is also angry at this moment: "Suzuki-kun, you are a stupid pig-like command, this is nearly a hundred imperial army warriors!" "No matter how many casualties the Imperial Army is, Sasaki is not distressed, but with the previous battle, in a small Zheng Village, the casualties of the Imperial Army exceeded more than 150 people.

Basically, it can be said that a squadron has been reimbursed, but the most painful thing is that the imperial army has not taken this Zheng Village until now, and with the withdrawal of the attacking troops, the battle form shì has returned to the original situation a few hours ago.

"Your Excellency Commander, the sky is about to dawn, and our army's firepower advantage cannot be brought into play in the dark night, so we will postpone the attack and wait until dawn to launch an attack, and we will definitely be able to take Zheng Village in one fell swoop and wipe out all the resistors!" A Japanese second lieutenant built yì road.

Sasaki quickly calmed down, and the successive heavy losses forced him to be calm and cautious, he knew that he had encountered a difficult opponent, and they were far from being as simple as the Imperial Army had imagined, and the resistance that could be eliminated lightly.

Rather, it is the elite militants who have been fighting with amazing strength.

Sasaki thought for a while and muttered: "Order the troops to surround this village on three sides, and the artillery will continue to bombard, leaving no respite for the enemy!" ”

"Hay." The two devil officers bowed their heads in response, and one of them cautiously reminded: "Sir, the mortar shells have been exhausted just now, and the logistics personnel have already returned to the city to carry the shells, and they will not be back until at least tomorrow morning." ”

Sasaki's face was even more blue when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and he said helplessly after a long time: "Surround this place first." ”

…………

In the village, with the hasty withdrawal of the Japanese puppet army, most of the courtyards in the village have returned to the control of the Dragon Tooth Task Force, and in a courtyard in the center of the village, Qiao Youhua and Xu Yuer are resting against the courtyard wall.

There was a slight sound of footsteps, Xu Yuer was alarmed and wanted to get up and fight, but was stopped by Qiao Youhua with his hand: "Don't worry, it's not a devil, it's our own people." ”

Qiao Youhua's voice fell, and several figures came to the courtyard one after another, it was Jiang Haidong, Wu Ming, Ma Biao and Zhang Yunshan.

"What about the casualties between the enemy and the enemy?" Qiao Youhua asked.

"According to preliminary statistics, in the past battles, we killed and wounded 73 people, including 33 wounded prisoners, and all of them have been taken to one place and detained in a centralized manner.

Killed 92 Japanese soldiers. We lost five riflemen and a few brothers were slightly wounded. ”

Qiao Youhua nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and Xu Yu'er on the side said with some doubts: "Why didn't you catch a devil captive?" ”

Ma Biao and the others looked at each other and said with a wry smile: "Little Japan will not surrender, they are brainwashed by the spirit of bushido, they will only all die in battle, and few people will surrender, which is also an important reason why their combat effectiveness is relatively strong." ”

Qiao Youhua said coldly: "Actually, we didn't plan to keep the Japanese prisoners at all, all the injured devils were all killed by the brothers, naturally there will be no prisoners, everyone remember to treat the beast-like Japanese devils, you can't have any mercy, there is only one choice, that is, kill them all, kill one when you see one, and leave no one!" ”

"After this battle, the devils have suffered heavy losses, and they should not attack in a short time, but they must guard against their shelling!" Qiao Youhua was just about to give the order to pay attention to concealment, when another task force member came to report to him: "Captain, the devils have begun to surround the whole village on three sides. ”

Qiao Youhua pondered for a while when he heard this: "It seems that the devil plans to wait until dawn before attacking!" Tell the detachments to be on strict guard and pay attention to the shelling of the devils, go ahead. ”

Nearly two hours later, it was already more than three o'clock in the morning, and behind a collapsed house in the north of the village, Qiao Youhua and Jiang Haidong were lurking here.

"Boss, something is wrong, the little devil neither attacks nor shells, it's not normal." Jiang Haidong said suspiciously.

Qiao Youhua thought of the fierce shelling before the Japanese attack, and suddenly said: "It's not that the devils don't want to shell, it's probably that they don't have shells, yes, it must be so!" ”

"So we're just going to wait? After dawn, it is conducive to the devils to give full play to their firepower advantages, and then bring in artillery shells, it will be difficult to fight, after all, the little devils are now surrounded on three sides, and the long-term siege is enough for us to bear. Jiang Haidong said anxiously.

Qiao Youhua pondered for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Of course it's not to sit still, go and transfer those two grenadiers to me, the devil's three-plate axe is finished, it's time for them to taste our awesomeness, hehe!" ”
