Chapter 243: The Mantis Arm Blocks the Car
Ono hid more than 600 Japanese troops on the top of the mountain, more than 100 people were wiped out on the top of the mountain, and more than 100 people were killed and wounded by the Japanese counterattack on the top of the mountain, and nearly 200 people were killed and wounded in the passive beating just now. Therefore, from the beginning of the raid to the present, in less than half an hour, there are less than 200 Japanese troops left in the more than 600 Japanese troops, and they are still shelling in the direction of the third line of defense like lost dogs.
Because the retreat goals of the Japanese troops in the four directions were the same, the retreat process was bearish, and the rout troops were not only not beaten less and less by the Eighth Route Army, which was chasing them behind them, but gathered more and more.
Of course, the second battalion is also getting more and more gathered.
The number of machine guns soon increased from four at the beginning to twelve.
So many machine guns lined up, all firing in the direction of the devils.
At first, the retreating devils were still in formation. However, after more and more soldiers were killed by bullets from behind, the Japanese soldiers who were still alive were not calm.
In order to survive, they rushed to the third line of defense.
However, no matter how much they rushed, there were always people who fell to the end and were beaten into a sieve by the bullets that flew in.
"Baga, retreat quickly, the defense line is almost there!" A squadron leader retreated because he was protected by guards, and three machine guns from behind him stared directly at him. After seeing that there were not many guards left around him, he shouted in a hurry.
The other squadron leader was obviously much more sensible, and shouted with a frown: "We must leave people to block the attack, otherwise so many of us will not be able to withdraw from the defense line at all, and even if we retreat, the Eighth Route Army will follow us into the position!" ”
"Who took the initiative to stay and stop the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army!"
"I'll stay!" Immediately, two squad leaders stepped forward.
The squadron leader was very happy at first, but after a few seconds, his face became gloomy again.
Because the retreat has invisibly evolved into a rout, the troop formation is all out of order.
The two squad leaders originally had forty or fifty subordinates, but because the formation was chaotic, the soldiers could not find the generals, and the generals could not find the soldiers, and in the end, there were less than thirty people who stayed with the squad leaders.
Perhaps knowing that they couldn't escape death, they followed behind their respective squad leaders without the slightest hesitation, lying on the ground, picking up their rifles and starting to fight back. Four Type 96 light machine guns were also set up and set fire to the pursuers of the Eighth Route Army who were close at hand.
"The little devil of the dog day dares to stay behind the palace. If you want to die early, I will fulfill you. Kill them, comrades! After several subordinates were killed and wounded by the devil's sudden counterattack, the second company commander ordered directly with anger.
Chasing the devils, the chasing soldiers beat the Czech-made light machine guns, and two staring at the devils and one machine gun.
The gunfire rang out, and the machine gun that the devil left behind to block the fire immediately fell silent.
No matter how desperately the machine gunner next to him tried to get close to the machine gun, he took the machine gun and continued to shoot, but he could not escape the frantic strafing of the Czech-made machine gun, and he could not escape the fate of being beaten into a sieve.
"Yaga, the enemy's fire is too fierce, we can't raise our heads and shoot!" The leader of a devil squad who was left behind the hall shouted with a look of grievance.
"Death is also to block the Eighth Route Army, shoot, use the corpses of the warriors as cover to shoot!" The other squad leader commanded with a murderous look on his face.
The whole person was like a crazy gambler, staring at a pair of red eyes, raising his command knife, and shouting in the direction of the second battalion.
A dozen devils who were still alive immediately crawled behind the corpse and mounted their guns on the corpse to shoot.
In an instant, five or six more fighters died in the second battalion.
"Kill that devil officer!" The platoon commander of the second company followed the machine gunner, and when he saw that the Japanese squad leader was so arrogant, he directly patted the machine gunner next to him on the shoulder and ordered.
The two Czechs fired at the same time, and the fluttering bullets formed an impermeable net of bullets around the squad leader.
"Ah...... Yaga! The little devil only had time to curse when the bullet knocked him into a sieve and fell to the ground on his back.
As soon as the squad leader died, the morale of the remaining devils immediately dropped.
Several Czechs took the opportunity to shoot and killed several devils.
At this time, they had already rushed to a distance of less than thirty meters from the devil.
The commander of the second company frowned and ordered: "The machine gunner continues to shoot, and the fire suppresses the remaining devils." Prepare grenades for the others, kill them! ”
The corpse can block the oncoming bullets, but it can't stop the grenades falling from the sky, and the fragments of the grenades scattered in all directions.
"Boom, boom!" As soon as the violent explosion sounded, more than a dozen devils were killed.
"It's a mantis arm as a car! This little force also wants to stop us, it's too self-righteous! Looking at the corpse of the devil at his feet, the second company commander did not hesitate to despise Dan.
Then he continued to order his subordinates: "Comrades, continue to charge, follow behind the devil's rout, recapture our third line of defense, and kill them all!" ”
At this time, there were less than 100 devils alive in front of the second battalion.
What's more, under the frantic pursuit of the second battalion behind him, people were constantly killed, and then fell on the way to escape.
Although the third line of defense of the Independent Regiment has been razed to the ground by devil bombers and mountain artillery, the puppet army still used the crater for more than 400 days to build a relatively strong defensive line.
But alas, the line of defense is against the fourth line of defense of the Separate Regiment, that is, the direction in which the guard company is now lurking.
As for the direction of the hilltop from which the rout had fled, only a platoon was placed for symbolic defense.
After the sound of gunfire and explosions on the top of the mountain, at first they did not pay attention.
More than 600 imperial troops were stationed on the top of the mountain, and they were condescending.
Even if the Eighth Route Army wanted to sneak attack the top of the mountain, with the elite combat strength of more than 600 imperial troops, it was completely able to hold the top of the mountain, and inflict heavy losses on the sneak attack troops of the Eighth Route Army, and even a counterattack against the sneak attack troops of the Eighth Route Army was possible.
However, as time passed, the sound of gunfire in the direction of the summit did not mean to abate.
The captain of the Japanese squad stationed here gradually sensed that something was wrong.
Just as he was about to send troops to reconnoiter in the direction of the top of the mountain, a scene that he would never forget appeared.
Dozens of imperial troops, like lost dogs, escaped from the forest and ran towards their location.
Immediately after, more and more imperial troops escaped from the forest and entered their field of vision.
After nearly two hundred imperial troops escaped from the forest, the Eighth Route Army appeared.
Although it was not very clear in the night, the light machine gun with a tongue of fire constantly spitting out from the muzzle clearly told the squad leader that the strength of the Eighth Route Army pursuing the imperial army must be expensive!
