Chapter 458: The Eighth Route Army Deceives People Too Much (Second Update!) )
The lieutenant lowered his head and did not speak, and the chief of staff had to stand up and relieve the siege and said: "General, it must be that the firepower of the Eighth Route Army is too strong!" ”
"We are a kilometer away from the battlefield here, but listening to the sound of gunfire, we are sure that the Eighth Route Army ambushing our escort troops is equipped with at least seventy light and heavy machine guns!"
"Such a powerful ambush firepower, coupled with the fact that our escort troops were caught off guard and attacked, will definitely suffer heavy losses!"
Major General Yoshino still couldn't believe this result, and asked rhetorically with a frown: "Even if the losses are heavy, it has not reached the point of losing everything!" ”
The lieutenant replied head-on: "Sir, the earth road that ambushed us was too close to us, and at the beginning of the battle, seven or eight thousand grenades were thrown on our escort troops. You can imagine how it is possible not to lose so many grenades that exploded together, combined with their powerful firepower! ”
"Eight Grid Tooth Road, the cunning Eighth Route Army. I must find them and destroy them! Major General Yoshino's anger came out, and he scolded as he stared in the direction of the battlefield.
The lieutenant immediately said: "Sir, then I will immediately inform the captain to hunt down the retreating troops of the Eighth Road and destroy them!" ”
"Nani?" Major General Yoshino frowned and refused.
"What to chase! Don't you know it's night? The Tuba Road has strong firepower and is also equipped with heavy mortars, and if there are traps ahead, won't our reinforcements also suffer heavy losses? Eight grid tooth road! ”
"Inform the escort troops! Heal the wounded, clean up the battlefield, and get back to the station as soon as possible! ”
"We'll clean them up when it's dawn, as long as the attack on the arsenal is fast enough, we can force them out and have to fight us!"
With the addition of four mortar squadrons and more than 2,400 puppet troops, less than 500 people survived in the end, and all of them were wounded and almost lost their combat effectiveness.
Faced with this result, Rear Admiral Yoshino wanted to cry without tears. Although he hated the Eighth Route Army that attacked him, Major General Yoshino could only be a ninja first.
Otherwise, in the face of the elusive and well-equipped Eighth Route Army, coupled with the darkness of the night around them, the troop losses may be even greater.
On the retreat of the guard regiment and the garrison regiment, Regiment Commander Zhou threw himself to the ground with the five bodies that Wang Ping had admired.
Bold, discerning, good at capturing fighters. More importantly, you can still keep your sanity in the face of victory, know that you will accept it when you see it, and have a big picture view......
Wang Ping actually possessed all these qualities and abilities required by an excellent general leading troops.
As soon as Wang Ping and the retreating troops converged with the retreating heavy mortar units, the chief of staff of the guard regiment rushed over with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Commander, Commander Wang, the losses have been counted!"
"There were no losses in artillery, more than 800 people were lost in the infantry, and half of them were killed, basically caused by grenades thrown by the devils when they counterattacked!"
"However, the results we have achieved are very large, although we have not had time to clean up the battlefield, but the soldiers still have a good idea of how many enemies they have killed."
"Roughly counted, the Japanese puppet army killed and wounded by us is no less than 2,000 people!"
A pair of eyes of Regiment Leader Zhou also shot out two rays of light outward.
"Commander Wang, if you attack continuously, the devil's loss will definitely not be less than two thousand, or even three thousand! Now we have eaten 2,000 people, and a dozen heavy artillery pieces have killed hundreds of devils. In this way, the Japanese puppet army in the garrison is less than 10,000 people! ”
"If there is a chance to kill two or three thousand more of them, then the Japanese puppet army attacking the arsenal will lose more than half! If you don't want to be wiped out in our hinterland, then you should think carefully about whether you want to stay here and attack our arsenal! ”
"Then keep fighting! Tonight, try to kill 2,000 more of them! Wang Ping said in surprise.
"Still fighting!" Head Zhou was stunned and asked with a look of disbelief.
"The fighters had just finished a battle, and everyone was very tired. What's more, the ammunition is basically depleted. Head Zhou raised his concerns.
"Also, the devil has just been fooled and lost more than 2,000 people, no matter how stupid he is, he can't make the same mistake. The reinforcements of the devil just now did not chase and kill us, we must be worried that there are traps waiting for them in front of us, afraid that they will be far away from the station, Taiyuan, and the lone army will go deep, and they will not go back after being attacked! ”
Wang Ping analyzed with a calm face: "Just now we were pulling out our teeth and ambushing their attacking troops under the noses of devils. This time we will not fight an ambush, but attack directly, and pluck the feathers on the tiger! ”
"How to pull it out? After the battle just now, the devil's station must be heavily guarded. ”
"It's still the northeast corner of the Japanese puppet army's station, where their baggage troops are stationed!" Wang Ping continued to analyze.
"You're right, after the battle just now, the devil is indeed very cautious. But there is another possibility, if we continue to sneak attack the devil in the same way, the devil will have habitual thinking. When the time comes, we will be able to surprise the devil and catch him off guard. ”
Head Zhou hasn't figured it out yet, but he doesn't plan to continue asking.
The battle just now made him realize that he would definitely not suffer a loss if he fought with Wang Ping.
"Commander Wang, as long as the ammunition problem of the troops is solved, let the soldiers seize the time to rest for two hours and eat some dry food, so as to ensure that they can restore their combat effectiveness. As for how to fight, as I said before, the guard regiment is under your command! ”
"I'll give you three hours to rest!" Wang Ping decided after looking at his watch.
"It's early in the morning, and we're moving at three o'clock. As for the ammunition, I'm all ready. When the time comes, one person will be equipped with fifty rounds of bullets and three grenades! "As the director of the arsenal, I still have the right to control a small amount of weapons and ammunition. Besides, this is to protect the arsenal, even if the amount of ammunition used is very large, the superiors will not say much.
After several hours of hustle and bustle, the Japanese puppet army garrison returned to tranquility again.
Because of the loss of a lot of troops in the shelling, the baggage troops stationed in the northeast corner of the garrison, the baggage troops plus the guard troops, there are only a little more than 2,000 left at full capacity.
Major General Yoshino replied that he was resting on the marching bed, and that he wanted to accumulate his strength for tomorrow's battle and take revenge on the Eighth Route Army on the battlefield.
The patrol and the vigilance troops, although very tired, did not dare to blink a pair of eyes, staring at the woods and bushes around the station, motionless.
No matter what kind of wind and grass is around, it will come up with a string of bullets, and there will be no mercy.
"Woooooooooo......oo Boom, boom, boom, boom ......and boom" Suddenly, the screams that made the devils both familiar and terrifying once again pierce the silence of the night, waking up every devil in the station. Then a violent explosion sounded at the garrison of the baggage troops.
"Eight Grid Yalu, the cunning Eighth Route Army, dare to come over, I want to kill you!" Major General Yoshino, who had scrambled up from the marching bed, cursed loudly.
As soon as he entered the headquarters, he asked: "Is it the same as just now, the mortar is set up on the other side of the mountain!" ”
"Hey, and it's in the same place!" The staff officer on duty immediately replied.
"The Eighth Route Army is too deceitful! Dare to use the same method twice, is there really no way to bully the imperial army? Bage Yalu, this time I must destroy you! Rear Admiral Yoshino had a great feeling of being humiliated and scolded loudly.
