Chapter 21: Counter Tactics

"The devil is here, ready to fight!" Qiao Youhua personally picked up a Taisho 11 light machine gun, and ordered in a deep voice, and soon there was a click around him, which was the sound of soldiers pulling the bolt and pushing the bullet into the chamber.

The devil's convoy came to an abrupt halt when it was far out of the range of the light machine gun in Qiao Youhua's hand, and a large group of devils began to get out of the car to form a battle formation under the command of Cao Chang, an officer at all levels, and Li Ka-shing's puppet army was also ordered to begin to assemble.

Captain Sasaki and two lieutenant officers came to the edge of the sorghum field near the village, leaning over the grass and holding binoculars to spy on the situation in Zheng Village, but their binoculars did not have night vision, and their eyes were dark.

"Captain, it's so quiet here, it's weird!" A lieutenant said.

Sasaki nodded with a stiff face, the continuous attacks along the way are enough to prove that the anti-Japanese forces entrenched in Zhengcun already knew that the Imperial Japanese Army was coming to encircle and suppress, how could they not be prepared?

But the Zheng Village in front of him was silent, which was very unreasonable.

Another lieutenant said, "Sir, it's better to send the Imperial Cooperative Army to explore the truth and truth." ”

Sasaki nodded happily and said: "Yo Xi, order Li Ka-shing to lead the Imperial Allied Army to shoot without guns, quietly drip into the village, and the machine gun fire of each squad of the Imperial Army will be on full alert, and once the situation changes, fire immediately." ”

"Hay!" The two Japanese lieutenant officers suddenly bowed their heads in response, and then each carried out the order.

After a short time, Li Ka-shing reluctantly drove more than 200 of his puppet army subordinates quietly towards the silent and terrifying Zheng Village.

Through the telescope with night vision function, the actions of the Japanese puppet army were completely under the eyes of Qiao Youhua and others.

"Dragon King, the little devils let this group of second devils be cannon fodder, what should we do? To fight or not to fight? Ma Biao, who was behind a bunker not far from Qiao Youhua, asked in a low voice.

Qiao Youhua stood up with a light machine gun and said motionlessly: "Fight, give me a hard lesson and teach these two devils a lesson, so that they can know the fate of acting for the tiger and betraying the country for glory." ”

As he spoke, Li Ka-shing's more than 200 puppet troops had advanced more than 200 meters without any formation, and they were less than 150 meters away from the forefront of the Dragon's Tooth Task Force, but Qiao Youhua was not in a hurry to shoot.

Although this distance is within the absolute effective range of the light machine gun, it is not difficult for the other soldiers in the dark night, and if they fire at this time, most of them will empty their guns.

Time passed quietly in a suffocating tension, and as the puppet army drew closer, the soldiers of the Dragon's Tooth Task Force could already hear the slight sound of the puppet army's feet and the heavy gasps of the puppet army.

Qiao Youhua hadn't given the order to fire yet, and Zhang Yunshan, the leader among the recruits, felt that his heartbeat was accelerating, and he was extremely nervous.

Sixty meters, fifty meters, forty meters, Qiao Youhua quietly calculated, and when the puppet army approached thirty meters, he suddenly gave an order: "Brothers, fire, give me a hard beating!" Before the voice fell, he pulled the trigger of the crooked light machine gun in his hand.

The ......light machine gun let out a long-awaited roar, and the dazzling tongue of fire erupted from the muzzle, dazzling in the dark night.

Other soldiers opened fire, rifles, light machine guns, and pistols rang out.

The puppet army, who had already raised his heart to his throat, never thought that the entrance of the village, which seemed to be quiet and dark a second ago, and could not even see a single figure, suddenly broke out in a rain of countless bullets, and suddenly, more than a dozen puppet soldiers who were walking in the front fell one by one.

The sudden fire strike startled the puppet army, and the remaining puppet army did not have the courage to fight back at all, so they turned around and ran back.

Li Ka-shing, who followed the back of the team, took the lead in running wildly.

Captain Sasaki, who had been taken aback by the sudden firepower blow in the rear of the Japanese army, and secretly decided to be happy because of his wisdom, saw that Li Ka-shing's puppet army did not even have the courage to fight back, so he threw away his gun and turned around and fled.

Bang Dang pulled out his command knife and slashed at the hood of the car next to him, sending out a spark.

Furious, he roared, "Yagayalu, a bunch of stupid pigs, bastards! Useless China pig! ”

The puppet army fled, the purpose of small punishment and big commandment had been achieved, Qiao Youhua ordered to stop shooting, the gunfire soon stopped, and Zheng Cun became quiet again.

At this time, Li Ka-shing, the leader of the puppet army who took the lead in escaping, was receiving the commendation of Captain Sasaki, and he opened the bow and slapped the thunder left and right.

"You useless thing, trash, bastard, stupid pig!" Sasaki Hikaru still didn't get rid of his hatred, and he scolded angrily.

Li Ka-shing's eyes were full of gold stars, and a Japanese lieutenant ran to report: "Sir, all squads are ready to attack at any time!" ”

Sasaki kicked Li Ka-shing to the side with one kick, holding his command knife: "Yo Xi, attack!" Grenadier fire cover! ”

Just now, the devil's light and heavy machine guns and grenadiers took advantage of Qiao Youhua's task force to fire, and probably mastered the light and heavy fire positions of the task force, as long as their own troops attacked, they could carry out fire bombardment on those positions in time, kill the machine gun fire points of the task force, and clear the obstacles for the attack of their own troops.

This is the signature tactic of the Japanese invasion of China, which is usually preceded by a small force to launch a tentative attack to lure the defenders to open fire and expose their own light and heavy fire support points, while the Japanese artillery unit observers and other fire units take this opportunity to demarcate the orientation of these light and heavy fire support points.

Subsequently, the use of artillery superiority to carry out targeted elimination or superior fire suppression is almost tried and tested, and it is invincible.

However, this time, the Japanese army's trump card tactics, which have been tried and tested repeatedly in China and even the entire Southeast Asian theater, are facing the super soldiers from the future.

Qiao Youhua: In the later generations where they lived, there were already special research institutions and personnel who studied the tactics of the armies of various countries during World War II, especially the Japanese army that invaded China, and formulated a lot of countermeasures.

Qiao Youhua, who was full of this knowledge, naturally could not let the Japanese army succeed again, so as soon as they stopped shooting, they quietly retreated twenty or thirty meters, and rearranged the positions of several light machine guns, waiting for the Japanese attack.

Sure enough, not long after the puppet army fled back, more than a dozen flares were suddenly fired from the direction of the devil's position over Zheng Village, and Zheng Village, which was originally pitch black, became as if it were daylight in an instant under the illumination of the bright flares.

After that, the mortar of the Japanese army let out a roar, and a series of high-speed flying cannonballs were wrapped in fire and pierced the night sky, falling fiercely like meteors towards the place where Qiao Youhua and them were hiding just now.

Boom, boom, where did a violent explosion sound, and a few of the shells landed accurately at the location of Qiao Youhua and several other machine gun fire points.

Jiang Haidong and Ma Biao looked at them and smiled, such a result had long been expected by them, but Zhang Yunshan and the other recruits felt a moment of fear, if Qiao Youhua did not order them to retreat quietly a few dozen meters, then the devil's shelling, they would probably be wiped out.

In this way, I admired Qiao Youhua more and more.

However, a more serious situation happened, as soon as the shelling of the devils stopped, hundreds of Japanese troops rushed towards them in a straggler attack formation under the light of the flares, and the real fierce battle was about to begin.
