The leader of the Japanese mortar squad was a veteran, and the Eighth Route Army suddenly opened fire on him, although he was startled, he did not expect that the Eighth Route Army would dare to directly engage in a confrontation with the imperial artillery. However, he reacted quickly and immediately ordered the gunners around the remaining three mortars of the squad to move.

In his consciousness, since the Eighth Route Army was already aiming at himself, and the mortar was firing fast. If you stay where you are and counterattack, your gunners will not be able to react faster than the shells will fly.

When the time comes, a squad of four mortars, and if a counterattack shell does not hit, it may be completely wiped out.

More than a dozen gunners did not understand the squad leader's orders, but the execution was not bad at all. Immediately disassemble the mortar, and then carry it on your shoulders and prepare to retreat.

The speed of reaction of the artillery platoon did not disappoint the Japanese squad leader. As soon as a dozen devil gunners carried the mortar parts on their shoulders, three shells with a screeching sound smashed at them!

"Boom, boom!" Three explosions sounded, and compared to the first round of three shells, this round of three shells all smashed in the middle of the devils.

In the violent explosion, seven or eight devils, along with the mortar parts on their shoulders, were directly blown away.

"Baga, you can't stay here any longer, everyone move quickly and get out of here!" The squad leader with a heartache on his face ordered loudly.

In the end, a mortar squad was only brought out by him with eight people, and the mortar parts brought out were only enough to assemble a mortar.

The squad leader, who was holding back his anger, didn't say a word, went into battle in person, armed with mortars, and planned to use the only mortar to counterattack, and vent his anger with shells.

Hamasaki Shaosa, who was not far away, also saw the tragic scene of the mortar squad's loss of soldiers, and shuddered in his heart, and secretly frightened the strength of the Eighth Route Army, and at the same time, he immediately reacted: "Baga, the Eighth Route Army even uses mortars, and they will definitely launch a general attack on us tonight!" ”

"All of them, prepare for defense, as long as the Eighth Route Army dares to come, we will destroy them!"

"Infantry artillery squad, immediately counterattack, destroy the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army, and must not watch the warriors being killed by shells in vain!"

As soon as the order was given, an exclamation sounded beside Hamasaki.

"Captain, the Eighth Route Army has begun to attack, they are following behind the puppet army, they must be trying to use the puppet army to kill our station!"

"Nani?" Hamasaki held up the binoculars and looked in the direction of the adjutant beside him.

There was already a stronghold-like stronghold in Shimonoseki, although the puppet army company commander left a platoon. But at this time, those who were left behind by the company commander must be the ones who are least liked by the company commander, who don't want to be traitors the most, and who work for the devil.

In addition, they were not equipped with machine guns, but the guard platoon, with two crooked handles, opened the way with machine guns, and rushed towards them with great momentum.

Dozens of puppet soldiers, organized by the platoon commander, did not even have the idea of resisting, and directly threw down their guns and raised their hands to surrender, clean and neat, without the slightest hesitation.

After easily taking the Xiaguan stronghold, the guard platoon immediately evacuated the prisoners and young men in the retreating stronghold with the assistance of the surrendered puppet army.

Wang Ping took a company, bypassed the stronghold all the way, followed closely behind the puppet army forty or fifty meters away, and directly killed the Japanese garrison.

The artillery platoon that remained behind, after firing 15 shells in less than half a minute, immediately disassembled the mortar, and then picked up the artillery parts and moved to the vicinity.

More than 20 people carrying artillery and shells carrying artillery shells had just left less than 30 meters when a shell with a screaming sound smashed into the artillery platoon position and exploded.

Even though everyone was far away from the shelling point, they could still clearly feel a wave of hot air rushing towards them on their backs in thick military uniforms!

At this time, many people showed a palpitating expression on their faces, dozens of meters away, as long as everyone retreated half a minute late, someone must have died under the counterattack of the Japanese artillery.

Zhang Bing didn't care about this, and after directing the artillery to retreat a few dozen meters forward, he immediately greeted: "Set up a gun here, aim at the Japanese heavy machine gun position, fire three times rapidly, and strive to destroy the Japanese heavy machine gun fire point with one shot, and clear the offensive obstacles for the battalion commander!" ”

Hamasaki Shaosa's face was very solemn, although he was already very cautious, he still didn't expect that the Eighth Route Army would use the puppet army to attack him.

"Captain, we must stop the puppet army from continuing to retreat to the station, otherwise the Eighth Route Army will definitely take the opportunity to kill it!" The adjutant reminded with a calm face.

Hamasaki Shaoza's brows furrowed, and a touch of murderous intent emanated from him, and then ordered with a very spicy face: "The second infantry squad assists the heavy machine guns in the direction of Shimonoseki, and must block the attack of the Eighth Route Army." ”

"As for the puppet army, immediately notify them to turn around and launch a counter-charge against the Eighth Route Army, otherwise they will die!"

Although the first company hung behind the puppet army and attacked the Japanese garrison, in order to force the puppet army to speed up and kill the Japanese position as soon as possible, it was afraid that something would happen. The weapons they held in their hands were not idle, and they kept firing deadly bullets into the backs of the puppet soldiers.

Along the way, there were more than ten puppet soldiers who died in the hands of a company.

The remaining puppet army that is still alive, in order not to be targeted by the Eighth Route Army behind them, all of you chased me to the devil's station and ran all the way over, afraid that they would be one step behind others.

At this time, the Japanese ordered them to turn around and counterattack with a command flag. Not to mention that no one in the puppet army who only thought about fleeing for their lives saw it at all, and even if someone saw it, they would directly ignore it.

Joke, the Eighth Route Army chasing them behind them was equipped with six crooked handles, and each of them had a three-eight cover. With this little force around to counterattack the Eighth Route Army, maybe it was beaten into a hornet's nest without even holding up the gun.

"Baga, the puppet army actually refused to carry out the order and did not launch a counterattack against the Eighth Route Army!" The adjutant frowned and scolded.

Hamasaki directly ordered with a ruthless face: "Then use bullets to tell them that if you don't obey the orders of the imperial army, you will also die!" ”

"Ordered heavy machine guns to fire warning shots, forcing them to counterattack the Eighth Route Army. If we rush forward, shoot them directly, kill them, and never let the Eighth Route Army get close to our station! ”

The sound of ......dense machine gun fire sounded on the battlefield, and the ground directly in front of the puppet army was directly dusted by a string of bullets.

The puppet army that was rushing forward subconsciously stopped, and then looked at the garrison more than 100 meters away with a look of fear, unable to advance or retreat.

At this time, the Japanese army told them to turn around and fight back, or the order to shoot them was quickly heard among the puppet army.

"Damn, the little devil can't be relied on at critical moments, so we will give them our lives every day. Counterattack! To put it nicely, it's actually to send you to death! The puppet army company commander scolded loudly.

The platoon commander immediately asked: "Then what should we do, Hamasaki's ruthlessness is well-known among the Japanese army, he said that he will shoot and will definitely shoot, and it doesn't matter if the lives of his brothers are in his eyes!" ”

"You ask me, I ask who to go, and the Eighth Route Army behind is not a vegetarian. Fight back now, we'll die faster! The company commander said angrily.

At this moment, the screaming sound of three shells crossing the sky suddenly sounded above their heads, and then they saw that the Japanese heavy machine gun position more than 100 meters away was shrouded in artillery fire.

As soon as the explosion sounded, the heavy machine-gun fire stopped. The puppet army company commander, who was frowning, immediately ordered as soon as his eyes lit up.

"Haha! The devil's firepower point was blown up, brothers, continue to retreat to the station. Only by retreating to the station can we survive! "In a situation where it is death to retreat and counterattack, retreating to the station is their only chance to live. Therefore, the company commander of the puppet army ordered without thinking about it.
