Chapter 535: Facing the Back
It's always lonely to walk on the road, whether you're alone or not, whether you're walking in a line or not.
Especially after the rain, the dark clouds do not disperse, especially when walking in the vast expanse and not being seen in the distance.
Wu Yan led the team and didn't speak, his expression couldn't see urgency, nor did he see slowness, he was always so virtuous that he couldn't see his eyebrows burning. People who don't know him won't like to be teammates with him.
Tie Dan is just a platoon commander, among all the platoon commanders in the independent regiment, except for Xiao Bing, only he is often willing to take the initiative to talk to the regiment commander, because he is a guard, and because he is often a recruit instructor, he always stands on the playground of Dabeizhuang.
The company can only follow behind the enemy's main buttocks, if you want to be fast, you can't be fast, you don't have a chance to go around, Tie Dan frowned all the way, he couldn't understand the current situation, he didn't know what to do, the company commander didn't speak all the way, he finally couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart, slowed down, and lined up with the regiment leader.
"Commander, I don't understand, let's ...... Is there still a chance?"
Captain Lu's anger had subsided, and his current expression was only serious, and he replied without thinking: "Of course there is." Jiulian must be at the forefront. The second company is certainly not far from them. ”
"That'...... Are we going to keep following until we get ahead?"
"There will be no fighting at the moment, just go. ”
“......”
Commander Lu noticed Tie Dan's confusion, his serious expression suddenly became clearer, and he continued: "As a commander, when you are at a loss, you have two choices, either divination or arithmetic. ”
"Occupy ...... Count?"
"Yes, it counts. I ask you, what time is it?"
Tie Dan couldn't help but look up at the sky, so obscure that he couldn't refer to it at all, so he had to guess: "Afternoon." ”
Commander Lu asked again: "What is the enemy's marching speed at present?"
"One hour...... Ten miles. ”
"How long is the road ahead, and when will the enemy reach the end?"
"Probably...... Tomorrow morning?"
"Then now if you are the commander of the Ninth Company, after leaving Lao Tzu's blocking order, and walking in the forefront, what will you do?
Tie Dan stared stupidly for a long time, and finally couldn't help but answer: "Could it be ...... Is the Ninth Company planning to go all the way to dark?"
"Now I understand? He is a bastard who dares to disobey Lao Tzu's order, he just doesn't want to suffer heavy casualties, since he has started to leave, it is impossible to stop casually, otherwise he will lack the heart, it is better to start fighting honestly! Therefore, there will be no battle before it gets dark, just follow along. But don't worry...... I can't spare him!"
Feeling the adoring gaze of Tie Dan, Regiment Leader Lu couldn't help but walk higher and higher, his gaze gradually turned into a distant look, and he subconsciously coughed and put his hands behind his back, as if his whole body began to shine, and he was properly Weiguangzheng.
Just as Regiment Commander Lu was so brilliant that he forgot himself, there was a faint sound of gunfire in front of him, which became denser and denser, and then the gunshots seemed to be raining, and even the sound of artillery appeared, and a storm formed.
Tie Dan was stunned on the spot and didn't dare to speak, let alone look at the head of the group. Captain Lu's face, which finally became clear, turned dark, and he said in his heart, Hu Yi, you can do it, really give me face!
......
A straight east-west road, with no dense woods on either side, and not much undulation, just wild grass and shrubs in a large area of mud, this is definitely not a good place for an ambush, but someone wants to ambush here.
There are more than 30 soldiers, all divided into two groups, each group of 16 or 7, one group is 100 meters on the south side of the road, and the other group is 100 meters on the north side of the road.
Luo Fugui's machine gun and another machine gun were placed on the north side of the road, at the end of the skirmisher line, Shi Cheng wanted to put the group on the south side of the road closer to the road, considering that the closer the distance to this environment, the worse the concealment effect, so he had to do so.
The group in the north was under the command of Luo Fugui, and Shi Cheng was in charge of the south, and Qin You, who was the instructor, also held a rifle and lay down near Shi Cheng, he refused Shi Cheng's request to let him be a commander, and was willing to be an infantryman.
At this stage, Qin You is more like an apprentice in the military, asking everything, whether it is when he is with Hu Yi or now by Shi Cheng's side, he never lets go of the opportunity to learn.
"If the devil really turns around and comes back, it's a small team, can we fight with this little force?"
Shi Cheng replied without hesitation: "I can't fight." Just try your best to kill and crush the devil for a while. Don't forget, the company commander and Ma Liang are in the west, not far away, as long as our side fires, they will come back, and then they will have to fight hard, even if they can't eat, they will have to cripple the team. ”
Qin You finally understood the overall deployment, and then asked the next question he was puzzled about: "Hu Yi told me...... The arrangement should try to cross fire to avoid opposing firepower, and now our two groups are facing each other across the road, isn't this against common sense?"
"That's right. Except for attacking the high ground, it cannot be arranged in this way under normal circumstances. This is what the company commander said, 'facing the back'. Well...... The company commander said...... Soldiers...... Well, that's what it means anyway, Ma Liang has learned more than me. The company commander did this when he was chased by devils, which is deliberately against common sense. Do you think that when the devils pass by here, they will see that this place is not an ambush place, of course, carelessly? Secondly, if we shoot on the south side of the road, of course they will no longer think that there are people on the north side of the road......
......
The Devil's Bicycle Squad was stuck on a small high ground next to the highway and was disturbed, about twenty guns, shooting at them from a distance from the east of the road, and the Tomozaka rifle of Isshiki was estimated to be at a distance of 500 meters, and he couldn't see the target clearly, only hearing the bullets whistling.
The squad leader smiled, he expected that the Eighth Route in front of him was just this person, this kind of long-range attack and shooting was not called a battle at all, this was obviously a hint of gunfire to the Eighth Route Communication in the west. Neither nervous nor hesitant, commanded a crooked machine gun to suppress and shoot to the east to play with the twenty guns, and then the other two machine guns were all asked by him to be on guard towards the west of the road, and the main force of the Eighth Route should show its face.
After waiting for a while, there was no figure coming from the west, could it be that the Eighth Route had gone down the road? This possibility is not small, so he used his telescope to carefully observe the north and south, and at the same time judged in his heart how long it would take for the Eighth Route to bypass here, and how long after he should continue to lead the team forward, and become a hunter chasing prey again.
As a result, after he lowered his binoculars, there was a sudden burst of gunfire a few miles to the west, and the louder and louder it became, and he could tell that heavy machine guns were engaged in the noise one after another.
Eight Roads: This is ...... They're hitting the convoy!
The sound of cannons also sounded, and the team leader's heart finally began to crawl ants, and there was no bottom. Like Hu Yi, he also knew that the convoy was full of heavy firepower and no infantry, and at the same time, he didn't consider the angry morale of the convoy, because the car was not pushed by their bicycle, so when the cannon rumbled, the leader of the devil squad thought that this was a signal for the official battle, which showed that the Eighth Route had a position, which showed that the battle there was not a simple attack, but that the Eighth Route officially began to block it.
With seven points of certainty, he didn't dare to hesitate anymore, and continued to stay in this small highland on the side of the road to accompany a dozen harassing eight roads.
Of course, he didn't know that the grenades and grenades on the road had been dismantled by the Ninth Company, so he didn't think about riding back, anyway, listening to the gunshots was not a few miles away, and at the same time, he didn't want the dozen or so Eight Roads in the east to continue to chase after him, so he immediately left a four-man light machine gun crew, plus four riflemen, and these eight devils continued to stay on the small high ground and stick to the dozen Eight Roads in the east to guard the bicycles by the way;
Fifty devils carried their guns, pulled up two columns along the highway and ran rapidly, put three infantry defense encounters in front, ran through the curve, ran over the gentle slope, ran on a straight road, and broadened their field of vision a lot.
Suddenly, I heard a shout from the south side of the road, followed by a row of guns, which were clearly piercing and painful, and three or four of them fell on the spot in the marching procession.
The professional quality is really not covered, although I didn't expect that there could be an ambush in this place, the devils did not panic, carrying the sound of gunfire on their backs, and the whole team rushed to the north side of the roadbed on the spot, and the highway roadbed was more than half a meter higher than the surrounding environment, which was the safest sheltering plan.
The leader of the devil squad jumped down the north side of the roadbed and immediately shouted: "The front team is on alert to the west!" and then commanded the surrounding devils to turn around, using the highway roadbed as a cover to return fire to the south, two light machine gun groups hurriedly found a position behind the roadbed, the grenadier was taken off, and the operator pushed the steel helmet on his head to lie on the slope of the roadbed to observe south.
The muddy slope of the roadbed on the north side of the highway became the chest wall of the devils, and they formed a slip along the road from west to east, gritting their teeth and firing back at the barren grass and shrubs about 100 meters to the south.
This is what Hu Yi said about 'facing the back'.
......
The bear's machine gun rang out, he didn't shout the order, and directly took the fight as the firing signal of the battle group on the north side, it stands to reason that his peers are enemies, he should hit the devil's machine gun group first, this bear is more afraid of the grenadier, so he first greeted the back of the target who was lying on his waist and did not carry the gun, with the tremor of the Czech machine gun, the ugly bear face subconsciously smiled and did not know it.
One ear is the bear's secondary shooter, but now he is also lying on the bear's side with a three-eight cover and shooting at the backs on the roadbed, aiming so much that his eyes are about to fall off.
Waste volunteered to be a loader for the bear, and he had no interest in knowing what the devils' backs were like, huddled in the mud puddle behind the bushes to fill the machine gun magazine, muttering to the shooting bear that he didn't want to be a soldier next time.
Xu Xiao was Xiong's observer, nearly ten meters away from Xiong's machine gun position, lying in the mud and constantly pushing the muddy steel helmet on his head, and suddenly shouted with snot bubbles: "Squad leader, the devil machine gun in the west has turned around!"
"Grandma, I just ran out...... You're missing an ear...... Hit your grandma! Magazines...... I'm going to ...... Let's cover it up first!"
The waste's voice also suddenly raised: "I said that the goods are lacking, you don't believe it! He is a good material for the top soldiers!"
"You get out too!" the bear's voice was louder, drowning out the devil's machine gun.
Bullets are flying in opposite directions, facing south and north, north and south, regardless of whether they are enemies or us. The devil caught in the middle had never seen such a despicable battle, and when he figured out the situation, he had already fallen alive and dead, and the rest desperately slipped out of the roadbed to drill a mud pit, and returned fire to the south was the target, and if he wanted to survive, he could only abandon the south and face the north first......
