Chapter 1011: Fight Back!
The bullets rushed like a tide, and the little devil who was caught off guard immediately turned from surprise to scream.
This alone killed and wounded at least thirty or forty little devils. That's it, thanks to the little devil's own quick reaction, and the surrounding trees helped them resist a lot of bullets, otherwise, the little devil's casualties would be even greater.
In the face of ambush on three sides, the little devil is no matter how strong he is, he can't stop it, not to mention that the little devil is not a fool, as soon as he saw that he was ambushed on three sides, he immediately understood that he was fooled, and quickly retreated the same way.
So, under the leadership of the little devil commander, everyone hurriedly ran away.
It's a pity that the little devil chased too happily just now, and he didn't think about reserving his strength at all. Now, their physical exertion is too great...... To put it mildly, you can't take such a fast step even if you want to run.
And the opponents of the little devils, the first and third companies of the assault regiment, one left and one right, were ambushed not far from both sides of them, and they were waiting for work, and naturally had sufficient physical strength, and when they went down with a round of bullets, they hurriedly ran away when they saw that the little devil didn't even dare to shoot back a few times, and how could the first and third companies let go of such a good opportunity to beat the water dogs.
So, the bugle sounded immediately.
Nearly 300 people chased after them like tigers descending from the mountain, firing guns and chasing ...... Forget about the second company, after all, in order to lure the little devil over, they ran fast and had a lot of physical exertion, but now they have more than enough strength and can only watch their comrades kill the little devil.
As a result, the scene became interesting again, and it was the same as the situation when the little devil pursued the second company before, or even worse. After all, in the past, the little devil and the second company were all rallies under sufficient physical strength, and now, the physical consumption of the little devil is too large, but the first and third companies have sufficient physical strength...... After being caught off guard by the excessive physical exertion of one side and being caught off guard, the other side is now retreating in a hurry, and in a panic, the resistance is naturally scarce; on the other side, it waits for work, seeing that the little devil was beaten so panicked, that he could not even turn around and shoot to stop the enemy from pursuing, and his own side was naturally full of morale, and compared with the two, the situation became extremely favorable to the assault group's side.
The situation of this little devil is even worse than the previous pursuit of the second company: the little devil's physical exertion is too large, but, under the sudden blow, the frightened and angry little devils completely rely on their potential, and their physical strength rebounds in a short period of time, but under the explosion of this potential, they will be chased and killed for a long time, and they will soon be consumed, and once even this last strength is consumed, I am afraid that when the time comes, the little devil will not even have the strength to carry a gun, so he can only be slaughtered.
Sure enough!
At the beginning, the speed of the little devils was okay, but when it only lasted about 200 meters, some little devils couldn't support it and fell to the ground.
But I have to say that the military literacy of the little devils is very good, at least they dare to sacrifice under the long-term ideological baptism of militarism.
Like now.
The first little devil who fell down, seeing that his comrades-in-arms wanted to come and pull him, he directly refused on the grounds that he did not affect his comrades-in-arms, and then, under the moving and admiring eyes of his comrades-in-arms, turned around, lay on the ground, and aimed his gun at the men and horses of the commando regiment that was chasing and killing. Obviously, he was not only unwilling to surrender, but was ready to die in battle, and wanted to do his part for the survival of his comrades by virtue of his own death.
From the perspective of a third party, from a military point of view, it is fair to say that the large number of little devils who first invaded China have been extremely strong in terms of their own military quality and combat conviction and combat effectiveness, and their combat effectiveness is also extremely strong, under the long-term arduous training and combat activities of the first batch of little devils...... This can be seen from the fact that at the beginning of the war, neither side of the Kuomintang nor the Communist Party captured many prisoners of little devils.
At that time, their equipment was much stronger than that of the Eighth Route Army, and their fighting conviction was much stronger than that of most of the national army, especially the high-level leaders...... Otherwise, why are there so many puppet armies.
Later, these little devils were killed a lot by the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and the little devils were in short supply and had to recruit soldiers from the country. However, the little devils have little land, and the population is not comparable to China, and after falling into the huge quagmire of China, they simply cannot compete with China, which has a large land and a large population, so this kind of continuous requisition from the country, especially emergency requisition, is constantly consumed. In this cycle, the quality of the soldiers behind the little devils naturally dropped sharply, and in the end, the age of the recruits dropped again and again, and in the end, even teenagers who were not adults or even 14 years old had to be recruited to the front line to fight.
And such people, without the ferocity and calmness of the first batch of veterans, cannot achieve the point of not surrendering to the death, and the number of captured people is naturally increasing. On the other hand, China, because of the long-term war, although it has consumed huge manpower and material resources, but for the soldiers, after years of war, the military literacy has become higher and higher, and the advantages of veterans have been significantly intensified.
"Bang!"
With a single shot, a pursuing Eighth Route Army soldier fell.
However, this shot angered more soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, so everyone invariably gave up shooting at other little devils, and instead shot at this little devil.
"Bang, bang, bang......"
A burst of bullets hit, and before the bolt could be pulled, the little devil was hit by at least five bullets, and it was over immediately.
I don't know if there is a cascading effect, when the first little devil falls to the ground because of excessive physical exertion, it is like venting the breath that everyone is holding in their hearts, and soon there will be a second, third, and fourth ...... The little devil fell.
I have to say that these little devils are really fierce, just like the first little devil to fall, not only refused the help of their companions, but also learned from the first little devil to fall, and used their lives to fight for a little chance for the survival of their comrades.
However, they forgot that the reason why the first little devil who fell was successful was because the Eighth Route Army was caught off guard by the pursuit, but now, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army have increased their vigilance, at least, when they see a little devil falling to the ground, they don't say anything, and they will shoot the little devil a few times first.
In this way, the little devils who fell one by one not only did not stop the pursuit of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, but also angered the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army more and more, and the speed of the pursuit was not only faster, but even the speed of shooting was faster, which accelerated the casualty rate of these little devils.
At the beginning, the little devil commander really wanted to bring everyone back, but seeing the ferocity of the Eighth Route Army's pursuit and the speed was very fast, on the contrary, the little devil's own side had too much physical exertion and lack of stamina, and gradually, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, which forced the little devil commander to make up his mind: abandon the car and protect the commander.
To put it simply, it is to sacrifice a small number of people to save the majority...... Of course, because the little devil commander didn't know that the snipers were lying in ambush on their retreat, and seeing that they were only being attacked from three sides and one way out, he thought that there was an opportunity, so he had to use such a method, at least, better than the annihilation of the whole army.
As a result, the Supreme Commander of the Little Devil (another squadron leader) immediately ordered the third squad of each of the two squadrons to stay behind to block the attack, and the rest of the people to speed up their retreat.
From a military point of view alone, the attitude of the little devils at this time towards the prohibition of orders is definitely worth learning from many people.
No, even if everyone knows very well in their hearts, the so-called staying to fight and blocking is just a nice thing to say, but in fact, nine times out of ten, they will have to die in battle...... The morale cannot be compared, the number cannot be compared, the weapons are not superior, and the other side is still waiting for work...... Under such circumstances, relying on only two squads to block the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army is tantamount to a fool's dream, at most it is just splashing the waves and delaying the time a little. However, the key now is how long the little devils of these two squads can delay the speed and time of the Eighth Route Army's pursuit.
However, when the provisional supreme commander gave an order, even if everyone was running rapidly, even if they knew that staying would be a death, they immediately carried it out.
The people of the two squads ran towards their respective squad leaders, and then, following the orders of the squad leader, let the people of the two squads disperse, and, roughly from the left and the right, to carry out the blocking battle.
The rest of the little devils didn't pay any attention to etiquette, and they all desperately accelerated and fled, because they also knew in their hearts that they were now relying on the lives of their comrades to survive.
By the way, in fact, the little devil's combat effectiveness is very strong, but their commander is a little incompetent, if he was ambushed at the beginning, he didn't retreat so quickly, but retreated directly to a certain distance, with the decisive heart of death and death, while fighting back, while calling for support, to be honest, it is really possible not to let things become so unmanageable. Because this little devil is not far from the main force, and it is impossible for the fourth battalion of the assault regiment to wipe them out at once, this time difference depends on the will and luck of both sides...... Of course, there is also a huge credit to the fourth battalion and the second company of the assault regiment, it is they who constantly stimulate the nerves of the little devils, and finally succeed in stimulating the little devils to chase and kill them desperately, so that they will lead this group of little devils into the encirclement. And, more importantly, the little devil's physical strength is almost exhausted. This is a perfect preparation for the next step and a good start for the ultimate goal.
In the eyes of the little devil, leaving two squads to block the enemy, anyway, can block the enemy for at least a short time. With this little effort, they must have run far away, and they can even join up with the main force to counterattack again...... Although the little devil is arrogant, he is not stupid enough to call for support on the radio at this time, so the main force of the little devil must have begun to act and rush to this side to rescue them.
However, the little devil is overconfident.
Under the premise that all kinds of conditions are not as good as the other party, especially the premise that the physical strength and morale are definitely not half a star behind the other party, it is really too idealistic to want to block the brave pursuit of two companies with two squads. What's more, don't forget, there are dozens of snipers lying in ambush on their retreat, like hungry wolves, who can't eat the flesh of the little devils and drink the blood of the little devils......
