The ambush was a success, with minimal casualties, but it knocked out nearly 40 Japanese soldiers and captured two truckloads of Japanese supplies. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Unfortunately, most of the captured bullet commandos were not used, as most of them were German weapons.

Fortunately, three Taisho 11th Year 70mm curved infantry guns were found in the car, and the appearance of this "big killer" made up for the lack of our heavy firepower.

The situation is not as good as I thought, not a single one of the 300 hundred soldiers will use mortars, which has a lot to do with the low popularity of artillery in the Chinese army, and even light artillery such as mortars is not available in any army.

I had to use these three mortars in the most stupid way, but fortunately, I had systematically learned how to use them in space.

Asked Liu Shan to borrow 5 clever soldiers, and the artillery squad of the commando team was born, and I was promoted to squad leader.

I first dug three large separate pits behind the defensive line, hid the mortars at the bottom of the pits, and then piled up circular bunkers with sandbags around the perimeter to strengthen the defense.

Only one box of shells should be left in each shell pit, and the others should be hidden separately to avoid the embarrassing situation of ammunition being detonated and there are no shells.

The landing point of the mortar was fixed by me, 150 meters in front of the blocking position, just on the edge of the intersection, and the boundary was very clear. As long as the Japanese rush there, these reload mortars can just fire.

Less than an hour after the remnants of the supply convoy fled back, a large number of Japanese reinforcements came, and it was estimated that the bunker could not support it and sent a telegram asking for help.

Having learned the lesson of the supply convoy, the Japanese-led cars stopped at a distance, and machine guns were deployed on the roof to provide fire support from a distance. The infantry left only a small part in the streets, and the rest kicked open the doors of the houses and entered the houses to shoot at the commando soldiers.

The attacking Japanese troops quickly rushed to the fork in the road, and just as they were about to let the mortars fire, three dark shadows appeared in the distance.

"Japanese tanks, hidden!"

The fool-like operation of the mortar has only one chance to damage the Japanese tank, and once detected by the Japanese tankers, they will fall into passivity, so they can only wait for the tank to enter the shelling point.

Three Type 97 tanks roared towards our blocking position, putting a lot of pressure on the soldiers of the assault team.

The Japanese tanks fought and walked, using tank guns to bombard places where the commandos might be hiding, and one of the machine-gun fire points could not hold their breath and opened fire.

The Japanese tanks withstood a hail of bullets and stopped, and the tank guns were raised high.

"Boom!"

The shells pierced the walls, the masonry crackled and fell, and a mangled corpse fell with a badly damaged light machine gun, slamming down on the masonry.

The machine guns at other points were too frightened to open fire, allowing the tanks to enter no man's land.

"Onboard!"

Behind the tank, a large number of Japanese troops rushed out, and the ghost cried wolf and launched a charge against the soldiers of the second team, firing while fighting, suppressing the firepower of the soldiers of the second team.

The second group of soldiers fought back against themselves, taking advantage of the advantage of automatic fire to send back a denser rain of bullets.

"Boom!"

A tank shot hit the sandbag bunker and lifted it high, leaving the soldiers hiding behind him spitting blood and falling to the ground.

The bombardment of tank guns caused heavy losses to the soldiers of the second team, and if it were not for the black guns of the soldiers of the third team on the tall buildings, it is estimated that the positions were occupied by the Japanese army.

"Squad leader, let's shoot, the brothers can't stand it!" One of the gunners said with a crying voice, and his cousin was among the soldiers of the second team.

"Before the time comes, no one is allowed to act rashly!" I say without a doubt. Tanks are the biggest threat and must be eliminated, even if the second team is disabled!

In the face of the increasingly accurate artillery bombardment of the Japanese army, the second team could not hold on, and Liu Shan took the second team of soldiers to hide in the houses on both sides. The Japanese soldiers who followed closely also rushed in, and the houses on the side of the street suddenly became lively, and the gunfire rang out one after another.

The ground blocking position is declared lost!

"Don't open fire, wait for my orders!" Seeing that a few soldiers wanted to get shells, I hurriedly stopped them, and the tank stopped more than 50 meters away from the shelling point, and it couldn't hit at all.

I picked up my gun, bowed out of the mortar pit, and lay down on a sandbag to fire at the Japanese in the blocking position.

"Bang bang!"

As soon as the Japanese army showed up, I would hit it with a bullet, either in the chest or in the forehead, and there would be no missing bullets!

"Sniper!"

The accurate marksmanship made the Japanese soldiers bow down and did not dare to continue to attack, and in order to deal with me, a sniper, the timid Japanese tank finally moved.

The three barrels locked my bearing, and I quickly got up and rushed into the pit where the mortar was.

"Boom"

The blast pushed me down and rolled me into the pit, shouting at the burning pain on my back:

"Three shots, let's go!"

"Tom Tom"

The shells exploded near the Japanese tanks, and the two 97s lay still, shrapnel penetrating the weak armor on their sides.

The remaining Japanese tank was blocked in the back and rushed towards the mortar position at full speed, and the fixed mortar had no way to take it.

"Keep firing artillery, stop the Japanese infantry, and hand over the tanks to me!"

I threw down my rifle, picked up a mortar shell, and charged at the Japanese tank.

"Boom!"

A cannonball exploded near me, and the wave of air tossed me over, and I sat on the ground with my ears buzzing.

I aimed the primer of the shell at a cement block and smashed it down, then quickly threw it at the tank. The enhanced strange force caused the shell to fly more than ten meters and roll into the bottom of the tank.

"Boom!"

The bottom of the tank shook, and smoke came out, which was soon overwhelmed by the flaming eyes that came out of the car.

"Kill!"

The morale of the commando soldiers was greatly boosted, and they rushed out of their bunkers and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese troops who followed the tanks into their positions. The hidden machine-gun fire points were fired at full speed after the threat was lost, and together with the mortars, the Japanese reinforcements were suppressed to the death, unable to move forward.

The Japanese troops who broke into the position were outnumbered and were quickly cleared. The Japanese troops behind gave up the death-like charge and slowly retreated.

The post-battle count was painful, with more than half of the soldiers of the second squad suffering casualties. The third group of soldiers also suffered heavy losses in the exchange of fire with the Japanese troops in the house, and nearly 20 people lost their young lives.

One by one, the bodies were found and lifted out of the building. While examining the body, I noticed a strange phenomenon.

The soldiers of the third team were not injured much, and more than half of the more than 20 casualties were killed by a single shot!

"Where did you find this body?" I asked, pointing to a corpse I had just carried down.

"The third window on the second floor," replied the soldier carrying the body.

"What about this one?"

.........................

Based on what I asked, combined with my guesses, I was roughly certain that the soldiers had been killed by the snipers, and that the Japanese snipers were somewhere in the three buildings opposite.

I approached Liu Shan and told him what I had guessed, and at the same time asked him to explain some counter-sniper methods to the soldiers, and then took a gun and hid in a building with a good line of sight. Every floor, every window, carefully searched for the snipers of the Japanese troops on the opposite side.
