Back at the headquarters, the second battalion had already eliminated more than 300 devils who had been ambushed by themselves.

Although it occupies a certain advantage in strength and firepower, it also caught the devil off guard.

However, the two companies still suffered nearly 100 casualties, of which more than 50 were directly killed. In particular, the one, two, and two platoons that attacked first, each of which sacrificed almost ten fighters.

After the battle was settled, the two companies immediately divided their troops, opened the way with machine guns, and struck at both flanks.

The three infantry companies arranged on both flanks immediately carried out Wang Ping's order to shrink their forces and hold on to the spot.

But the devil seemed to have the idea of being unforgiving, and after seeing that the Eighth Route Army was pressed and beaten by himself, and began to shrink his strength, he didn't say a word, and directly ordered the troops to start a counteroffensive, wanting to kill the mountain where the Eighth Route Army was hiding, and turn defeat into victory.

At this time, the still alive devil officer also made a fatal mistake: he believed too much in the combat effectiveness of his recruits.

Although these recruits are becoming more and more accustomed to the battlefield, their endurance is still not comparable to that of veterans.

First, four mortar shells smashed down, instantly blowing up more than a dozen screaming devils, and directly blowing up three devils into minced meat.

In the next attack, the Eighth Route Army killed more than a dozen people in several rounds of guns.

The recruit's newly raised will to fight was lost again, and he was once again terrified of the battlefield.

In particular, the scattered scraps of flesh and broken arms around them further intensified their inner fear and made them realize the cruelty of the battlefield.

At this time, another cannonball smashed down with a screaming sound, and the devil who saw the power of the cannonball, this time all the brushes lay on the ground. But seven or eight people were still killed and wounded, especially a wounded soldier whose thigh was blown off, and while letting out a heart-rending scream, he dragged his bloody legs and crawled on the ground, leaving a day of bloody bloodstains, which was particularly penetrating.

The devil officer had already reacted at this time, knowing that it was impossible to take down the Eighth Route Army in front of him in one attack, even if they were losing more and more in battle.

Therefore, they immediately ordered their subordinates not to rush directly to the mountain beam, but to shoot while killing and wounding a large number of the Eighth Route Army through accurate shooting. While crawling forward, little by little close to the position of the Eighth Route Army, to reduce casualties.

At this time, the squadron leader, who only relied on signal flags to communicate, did not know that the Chinese army where the group leader belonged had finished in a dense explosion.

That's not all, seventy or eighty Eighth Route Army with machine guns and crooked handles are like a sharp blade, directly inserted into their hearts.

On the road two kilometers away from the ambush battlefield, there are more than 300 devils and more than 260 left.

The artillery of the brigade commander, the heavy machine gunners, and even the rifle crooked handle machine gunners, and the grenadier gunners, all died.

In order not to affect the marching and the combat effectiveness of the troops, the squadron leader led the squadron to give an order to directly send the extra heavy equipment to the baggage vehicles behind.

At this moment, an ambush of the Separate Regiment began.

"Baga, the cunning Eighth Route Army, actually gave up ambushing us and directly ambushed our follow-up troops!" The squadron leader frowned, and said to himself with a look of disbelief.

Soon, the communications corps rushed over and reported; "Captain, the captain is in a hurry, asking us to return to the reinforcements immediately and attack the ambush troops of the Eighth Route Army from the flank!" ”

"The Eighth Route Army is really going to ambush our follow-up main force!" The squadron leader said with a calm face.

However, those who are familiar with the squadron leader will find that although the expression on the squadron leader's face is ugly, when he says this, he will definitely hear a little joy if he is careful.

After all, he only has a reinforced squadron in his hands, and if the Eighth Route Army chooses to ambush itself, even if the follow-up main force can be reinforced in time, it will suffer heavy losses. If you are unlucky, it is possible to be completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army here.

Now it's not the same to go to reinforce the follow-up troops with yourself intact. Because, when it comes to reinforcements, the rhythm of the battlefield is controlled by yourself. I dare not guarantee anything else, the casualties of the troops, especially the casualties of the imperial army, the squadron leader himself can still guarantee it.

Thinking of this, the squadron leader immediately ordered: "According to the squadron leader's order, the rear team will become the front team, and the front team will become the rear team, and the captain will be reinforced!" The three companies of the Imperial Association Army stayed, guarded the materials on the spot, and executed them immediately! ”

For nearly 500 days, as soon as the puppet army received the order, it began to march in a hurry and hurried to the rear.

At this time, Zeng Quan took the third battalion to the position of 500 meters behind them, because there was a sharp bend in the road here, and the Japanese puppet army who quickly returned to the reinforcement did not find the third battalion on the other side of the bend.

"Quick, bring the sandbags we have prepared a long time ago over and pile up bunkers, time is limited, we can only use such bunkers!" As soon as the chief of staff rushed to the highway, he ordered loudly.

It turned out that when he received the Japanese army, Zeng Quan was thinking about how to complete the task.

In the face of the attack of the Japanese puppet army, if the third battalion wants to block them at the lowest cost, it must have a strong enough position. However, the devil may have left the third battalion two minutes to prepare. It was almost impossible to dig a trench in two minutes.

After thinking about it, Zeng Quan finally thought of preparing sandbags full of soil in advance, one sandbag for two people, and all three battalions added up to three hundred sandbags full of soil.

Four bags of dirt were piled up to pile up the bunkers, and 300 sandbags took less than a minute to build a section of bunker more than 40 meters wide, enough to block a position on the road.

At that time, one company was behind the bunker, and two companies occupied the hills on either side of the road. No matter how powerful the Japanese puppet army is, it is impossible to break through the layers of three infantry companies in a short period of time!

Therefore, when the Japanese puppet army turned the corner, a bunker piled up with sandbags directly blocked in front of them.

Behind the sandbag bunker, a row of the Eighth Route Army lay on its stomach, and dozens of black barrels stretched out from behind the bunker, and the muzzles of the guns were pointed at the Japanese puppet army who hurriedly killed.

Because the Japanese puppet army had already rushed to a hundred meters in front of the third battalion when they turned the corner, as soon as they appeared, a row of black holes and muzzles fired a row of bullets at them.

"Bang bang bang!" A volley of guns rang out, and the seven or eight Imperial Allied troops who rushed to the front were caught off guard and were directly killed on the road.

The Imperial Alliance Army and the puppet army behind immediately stopped, some subconsciously lying on the ground, and some hid behind the stones and bushes next to the road.

"Bagaya Road, what's going on with these bunkers, there was nothing a few minutes ago?" The squadron leader asked rhetorically with an incredulous expression.

"It must be the Eighth Route Army!" The vice-captain next to him replied.

"I know it's the Eighth Route Army, what I'm asking is, how did the Eighth Route Army get there, and it took a few minutes to build a defensive line!" The squadron leader frowned and asked with a calm face.

Seeing that his subordinates shook their heads one after another, he continued to order: "No matter, the captain is being attacked by the Eighth Route Army, no matter how the Eighth Route Army builds this defense line, we must break through it and reinforce the captain!" ”
