Chapter 629: The Commander's Strategy (First Update!) )
"Comrades, the devils already have a countermeasure against our sneak attack, and I have decided to change the sneak attack method and make the devil's firepower advantage useless!" The third company commander frowned and analyzed.
Then he began to give orders: "Now we still have two light machine guns left, I have decided to send an infantry platoon for a sneak attack, divide it into at least six combat groups, two of which are equipped with machine guns, and retreat with one blow, disperse the counterattack fire of the devils, and reduce our losses!" ”
"Bang bang...... Dadada......"
Soon, a chaotic and short burst of gunfire rang out around the Japanese puppet army.
The bullets from all directions made the Japanese puppet army unable to hide, and seven or eight people were killed and wounded at once.
"Yaga! Enemy attack, strike back immediately: mortars, heavy machine guns, shoot right away, take them out! The devil squadron leader subconsciously shouted.
However, the devils who carry out the orders are very confused.
There were at least six counterattack targets around, and the squadron leader's orders were not very clear, and no one knew which target they should counterattack against.
Finally, under the command of several second lieutenants, four of the targets were locked onto counterattack. The Eighth Route Army, which had attacked them, had already reached a few dozen meters away.
In the next march, all kinds of sneak attacks appeared around the devils.
After finally killing the next village, the captain has to face a harsh reality.
"Sir, the Imperial Army lost 21 casualties, 16 were seriously wounded and lost their combat effectiveness, and the Imperial Allied Army suffered 19 casualties!" The adjutant reported in a heavy tone, his face was very unsightly!
"Bage Yalu, when I have all the food, I must find them and let them pay for their blood debts~" The captain scolded with a calm face.
"Get food first! Wang Sang, it's still the old way, let this village hand over 50,000 catties of grain. When the time comes, we will personally escort this batch of grain back! ”
In less than an hour, 50,000 catties of grain were piled up in the threshing floor at the entrance of the village.
More than a dozen carts were snatched from the village, coupled with the puppet army's shoulder-to-shoulder resistance, and the Japanese army returned to the stronghold with food in this way.
"Battalion commander, this time it was the main force of the Japanese puppet army that personally escorted the food back, and sent a large number of reconnaissance troops to reconnoiter along the way, including the devil special forces, we almost couldn't find a chance to ambush them!" The reconnaissance squad leader found Xiong Changhe and reported with a frown.
"Then don't hit them in ambush, just sneak attack!" Xiong Changhe made a decisive decision!
"The three companies are all free to move, I don't care if you are fighting the devil reconnaissance force or the main force of the devil on the road, it will take nearly three hours for the devil to return to the stronghold from here. I ask you to kill at least ten devils for me in each company! ”
"Firepower company, directly subordinate troops, follow me and go directly to the devil's stronghold!"
With the addition of the puppet army, the stronghold of more than 500 people in total, because of the stationing of the grain grabbing troops, the number directly exceeded 1,300 people, which was very crowded.
After the devils arrived at the periphery of the stronghold in advance, they saw that the two or three hundred meters around the stronghold were empty flat land, and there was not even a place to hide, and the firepower company commander Chen Yang's brows wrinkled suddenly.
"Battalion commander, the devils are too cunning, they have cleaned up the bushes and obstacles around the stronghold, as long as we attack, we must be exposed to their fire and rush forward for two or three hundred meters, which is completely a live target for the devils!"
"So I didn't plan to attack this stronghold!" Xiong Changhe's face didn't change much.
"Then the head of the regiment, did you bring us here?" Chen Yang didn't understand, and asked with a frown.
"Kill the devil, kill one is one. The devils do not have many troops, and after a while, they will find that the price they pay for food is no less than launching a large-scale encirclement and suppression. When they lose enough and realize that something is wrong, the time has come for us to fight back! Xiong Changhe replied with a mysterious smile on his face.
This is the most important content of Wang Ping's second telegram to Xiong Changhe.
There is no doubt that Xiong Changhe has comprehended Wang Ping's strategic thinking in this battle and has begun to act!
Chen Yang had an expression that seemed to understand, but in the face of the surrounding terrain, he still frowned and asked: "But, here, we can't even get close to the devil's stronghold, how can we kill the devil!" ”
"Use your heavy machine guns and mortars to kill~" Xiong Changhe replied directly.
"The devils would never have imagined that we would have the guts to attack them outside their stronghold. Therefore, entering the stronghold must be the time when the Japanese puppet army is the most relaxed and unvigilant! ”
"There are six heavy machine guns in the fire company, and the effective range is far more than 300 meters, you choose the machine gun position and aim all the guns at the gate of the stronghold. After more than half of the Japanese puppet troops who went out to grab food entered the stronghold, they shot directly and killed them with heavy machine gun fire! ”
"The artillery platoon also acted this time, three mortars, all aimed at the open space in the middle of the stronghold. After the Japanese puppet army entered the stronghold, they must have concentrated on the open ground to rest first. I remember that each cannon brought five shells, and all of them were fired at me. ”
"As soon as the heavy machine gun fires, the three platoons will open fire, and when the battle is finished, they will retreat and transfer!"
"The devils in the stronghold also have cannons, don't let them target them!"
"Two platoons of heavy machine guns, each heavy machine gun shoots all the bullets of two bullet plates, and then they will move and retreat, and they can't fight!"
The devil captain was not in a good mood at all, although he brought back 50,000 catties of food, but on the whole way back to the stronghold, the gunfire around his ears almost never stopped, there were sneak attacks by the Eighth Route Army, and there were also his own subordinates.
Three infantry companies, sometimes in turn, sometimes together. The devil's alert force, reconnaissance force, palace rear force, and even the special forces that cooperated with the operation were all targets of the sneak attack of the three companies.
Concealed outside the reconnaissance range of the Japanese puppet army, concentrated firepower for shooting. Although the shooting distance is more than 100 meters, sometimes even two or three hundred meters, a blind cat can kill a mouse and kill one or two devils.
In the end, several companies directly used grenadiers, fired grenades from a distance, and ran away without giving the devils any chance to counterattack.
It was not until the captain could see the stronghold that the gunfire stopped.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army, which attacked us, must have retreated!" The adjutant general reported with a sigh of relief.
"All the concealment around the 300-meter perimeter of the stronghold has been cleared, and if the Eighth Route Army wants to continue to sneak attack us with light infantry weapons, it will be exposed in front of us and withstand the powerful counterattack fire of the imperial army. They are too cunning, they must have seen this clearly before choosing to take the initiative to retreat! ”
Although the captain's face looked a lot better, his tone still brought a lot of anger, and he frowned and scolded: "Bageya Road, if there is a chance in the future, I must ask my superiors to clean up all the obstacles and concealments within two times and three hundred meters of all important highways in China, so that the Eighth Route Army that attacked us will have nothing to dodge!" ”
"Order the troops to hurry up and enter the stronghold, rest well today, and continue to fight into the base area of the Eighth Route Army tomorrow to grab food!"
Xiong Changhe stayed at the machine gun position of the firepower company, holding a telescope and staring motionlessly at the Japanese puppet army on the road.
Chen Yang next to him was very excited, and after looking at it for a while, he exclaimed excitedly: "Battalion commander, the three companies must have killed a lot of Japanese puppet soldiers." There are a lot of stretchers and corpses in the devil team, and they must be the results of the two companies! ”
"Good fight, it's up to you to fire next!" Xiong Changhe is very satisfied with this result.
"The puppet army has been transferred to the front to carry food and carry the wounded, and the rear of the hall is a reinforced squad of devils, and the firepower company will fight this reinforced squad!"
