The captain of the Japanese army, under the protection of more than a dozen guards, found a blind spot of the Eighth Route Army shooting and hid inside.

However, a pair of eyes full of shock and incredulity, never left the battlefield.

"Baga, I didn't expect the cunning Eighth Route Army to really go the opposite way and attack us directly, it's just too cunning!" The captain scolded loudly as he observed the battlefield.

"Captain, the firepower of the Eighth Route Army is too strong, the artillery and heavy machine guns of the third squadron are all finished, and the infantry is also pressed to the death by the Eighth Route Army and suffers heavy losses!" The squadron leader next to him reported with an anxious expression.

The third squadron is his subordinates, and seeing them continue to reduce their strength under the powerful firepower attack of the Eighth Route Army, and as the squadron leader, he has no way, and the anxiety in his heart can be imagined. can only pin his hopes on the captain around him, hoping that the captain can transfer reinforcements and reduce the pressure on his subordinates.

The captain did not answer, and the expression on his face was unmoved, and continued to observe the battlefield.

Soon, a sneer flashed across the corner of the captain's mouth.

"Don't worry, it won't be long before our two squadrons in front and behind will launch a counterattack!"

"Order your men to hold on and continue to attract the firepower of the Eighth Route Army! Inform the second and fourth squadrons to immediately start a counterattack, launch a counteroffensive directly to the position of the Eighth Route Army, and after occupying the position of the Eighth Route Army, launch an attack on their main force from the flank, flank the front and rear, and destroy them! ”

The Independent Regiment did not expect that these people wearing the uniforms of the Imperial Allied Army were devils, and the captain of the Japanese army also overestimated the combat effectiveness of these recruits under him, and also underestimated the Eighth Route Army.

The three infantry companies that were deployed before and after the ambush were still fighting according to the methods used in the past to fight the puppet army.

Both riflemen and machine gunners, without exception, pointed their guns at the officers in the army armed with pistols!

Because of the limited number of veterans, in the newly expanded brigades of the Japanese army, there were more than 30 veterans in an infantry squadron, and the average was about 10 people in each infantry squad, almost all of whom were officers, and only a small number of veterans were still soldiers.

An infantry company aimed at the officers and veterans of their two squads, which meant that more than a hundred rifles and three crooked handles were staring at a dozen devils.

As soon as the signal for the offensive appeared, three companies of the Eighth Route Army opened fire.

In an instant, seven or eight people fell from each infantry squad, and these people were all officers with pistols at their waists without exception.

Suddenly attacked, the recruits who went to the battlefield for the first time were already panicking. When they saw that all the officers around them were dead at once, they were even more panicked.

By the time the panic returned to the panic, their actions were not affected.

The long period of military training has allowed them to practice a lot of subconscious movements. For example, now when I hear a gunshot, I lie on the ground.

So, although they were flustered, there were even some recruits who were panicking. However, still in just two or three seconds, Qi Shushu lay on the ground, compared with the Imperial Allied Army that the independent regiment had encountered, it can be described by the four words of well-trained.

Of course, compared with real devil veterans, they still have a big gap.

If the devil veteran who is marching is attacked, he will definitely be able to judge the specific direction of the attacker for the first time, and then look for a hiding spot in the direction of the attacker and lie on the ground. This way, they can fight back with their rifles in their hands and don't need to adjust their direction.

And these devil recruits, although they are fast in concealment, are lying everywhere in the direction.

Although he dodged the bullets fired by the Eighth Route Army, he could not easily counterattack.

It wasn't until a few veterans of the squad who were still alive began to give orders, pointing in the direction of the ambush unit of the Eighth Route Army and ordering them to counterattack, that the recruits in the panic reacted.

The recruits in the right direction picked up their rifles and fired at the mountain beams not far away, counterattacking. Devil recruits in the wrong direction, quickly adjust the direction and prepare to counterattack.

But even so, it took less than ten seconds before and after the devil.

For the Eighth Route Army not far away, because the proportion of recruits and captives was too large, and everyone thought that they were attacking the Imperial Army, they did not attack them to death with the idea of capturing them.

However, as more and more devils began to counterattack, the Eighth Route Army, which was lying behind the bunker with only its head exposed, began to suffer casualties, and the veterans and cadres of the three infantry companies finally realized that something was wrong.

Because, especially after seeing many soldiers around him being directly shot in the head by the enemy on the road, a company commander finally reacted.

"No, they are not the Imperial Army, and the Imperial Army does not have such good marksmanship. They are devils, devils wearing the uniforms of the Imperial Cooperative Army, otherwise it is impossible to equip all of them with the 38 big covers! We were fooled! ”

The surrounding squad and platoon commanders all showed a shocked expression, and then ordered loudly: "Counterattack, counterattack immediately, they are not the Imperial Army, they are devils, they will all fight me to death!" ”

Just now, he was just suppressing the crooked handle of the devils, so he immediately lowered the muzzle of the gun and shot the bullet at the devils, shooting wherever there were more devils.

But the devils are not vegetarians, although it is the first time to go to the battlefield, they are well-trained after all, and after the initial chaos, they slowly adapt to the battlefield, and the more they fight, the more they get started.

In the first round of shooting of the Eighth Route Army, the crooked handle that fell on the official road because the machine gunner was killed, I don't know when it was re-erected by the devils, and then counterattacked against the bullets fired by the Eighth Route Army, shooting at each other.

And although the devil riflemen are also recruits, their marksmanship is trained through hundreds of bullets.

And the Eighth Route Army on the mountain beam, the veterans are okay, the recruits have only trained a few dozen bullets, and the captive soldiers are slightly better, and the training and combat have fought more than a hundred rounds together.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of marksmanship, neither of the two Eighth Route Armies is an opponent of a devil recruit.

The two sides exchanged fire for less than a minute, and each infantry company lost a dozen men. What's more, in the face of casualties and close deaths, many recruits began to panic, sweating profusely, and their hands holding rifles involuntarily began to tremble.

On the other hand, each infantry company faced two infantry squads, except for a dozen people who were killed and wounded in the initial surprise attack, they only lost seven or eight people in this minute's counter-shooting, and there was a posture of fighting more and more fiercely, and fighting stronger and stronger.

Soon, the platoon commanders of the three companies felt the tremendous pressure brought by the devils to the troops.

His brows tightened, and he ordered loudly: "Comrades, hold on, the regiment commander will definitely send us reinforcements!" The cadres and veterans brought me the recruits around me, first killed the devil machine gunners, killed their riflemen, continued to shoot, and increased the firepower output! ”

In the former enemy headquarters of the independent regiment, less than half a minute after the battle began, Wang Ping sensed that something was wrong.

Sure enough, less than half a minute later, the command received a report from three company commanders that they were not attacking the Imperial Army, but all of them were elite devils, pretending to be devils of the Imperial Army, just to attract themselves to be fooled!
