As soon as the devil's side withdrew, the monk also hurriedly gave the order to retreat, and the soldiers quickly moved to the second-line fortifications.

The devils who had just advanced were ambushed, and they had already detected that the front tanks that had been divided by the explosion and the accompanying Japanese infantry were basically wiped out.

There will be no more worries about the artillery fire in the rear of the Japanese army.

Once this wave of Japanese troops retreated, the news was transmitted to the rear of the Japanese army, and the devils relied on the artillery with an absolute advantage in numbers, and the shells would soon be smashed over.

Monks, Duan Peng, including Sun Chuanzhong, are all veterans with rich combat experience, so they naturally understand this truth.

"Three platoon leaders, leave a few steel helmets on the fortifications when you withdraw." When the order to retreat was given, the monk gave an extra explanation.

"Huh!" The third platoon commander responded, naturally knowing what his company commander meant, this is to make a few disguises to fool the little devils.

Soon.

After the repulsed devil team quickly returned to the safe area, the message was immediately passed to the squadron headquarters in the rear.

"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, the Pioneer Tank and the Coordination Team have all been killed, and the Eighth Route has built fortifications relying on the terrain, and the firepower is extremely fierce!"

Kazuo Nakano was a little shocked in his heart, and then he was furious, a team of Imperial warriors plus a tank, just like that?

"Baga, notify the grenadier teams and immediately shell the area where the eight roads are located!"

"Hey!" The devil communication soldier hurriedly responded.

In fact, Kazuo Nakano's command ability cannot be blamed.

After all, the group of Eight Roads he was facing at the moment was well-equipped and full of ammunition, far exceeding the three guns and eight roads he usually encountered.

The other side occupied the favorable terrain in the village and built fortifications in advance.

For Kazuo Nakano, in addition to bombarding with artillery, rashly sending troops forward will definitely step into the trap set by the Eighth Route Army.

In the firepower of the two sides, no one can be a god overlooking the entire battlefield.

Therefore, there is basically no special disparity in information between the two sides, relying on the prediction of the battle situation by the commanders of the two sides.

The monk and Sun Chuanzhong expected that as soon as the devil retreated, they would immediately use artillery, so they hurriedly ordered the troops to retreat to the second-line fortifications.

After receiving the order conveyed by the forward troops, Kazuo Nakano immediately ordered an artillery bombardment, and he wanted to fight for the Eighth Route Army with speed.

Boom –

The plough-type artillery shelled the area of the front-line fortified houses where the soldiers were originally located for a long time.

Kazuo Nakano sent forward observation posts to reconnoiter the situation after the shelling.

During the shelling, the Devil's forward observation post noticed through the telescope that only half of the steel helmet was hidden behind the fortifications.

The devil also thought that the Eighth Route Army had not retreated in time and was being bombarded by artillery fire, with a cruel smile on his face.

But then these little devils found that something was wrong, and they never saw the figure of Balu, and after those steel helmets were directly blown over, there was no other movement on the entire construction site except for the roar of artillery fire.

"Sir, the situation is not quite right, the enemy fortifications have not seen half of the shadow of the Eighth Road, and the other party seems to have evacuated in advance!"

"Nani?"

Kazuo Nakano was stunned, and hurriedly issued an order for a ceasefire, and the little devil who lacked resources could save on shells.

A round of artillery bombardment did not achieve much results, and Kazuo Nakano was not in a hurry, he now felt the huge advantage that existed on his side compared with the enemy's Eighth Route Army.

First, judging from the previous battles, the strength of the Eighth Route Army was not much, and the empire occupied an absolute superiority in troops.

Second, although the Eighth Route Army was partly idle and occupied the terrain advantage, from a general point of view, this group of Eighth Route Army was flanked by the front and rear and besieged in Xiaoli Village.

Thirdly, although the equipment of this cargo eight roads is excellent, it is not comparable to the equipment of the two imperial squadrons in terms of the total number of artillery and machine guns.

"Yeongxi, the striker stays vigilant, continues to move forward, and compresses the living space of this gang of Tubalu!" Kazuo Nakano gave the order.

Under the command of the leader of the devil detachment, more than a dozen little devils in the vanguard opened a skirmish line, relying on the houses on both sides, and cautiously groped forward.

The monk and Sun Chuanzhong led the soldiers to retreat to the second-line fortifications and joined up with Sun Daping, who was defending the second-line fortifications.

In the previous battle, Sun Daping took most of the soldiers of the cavalry company, as well as some of the soldiers of the guard company led by the monk, to be responsible for blocking the advance of the Japanese puppet army from the village entrance in the second line of fortifications.

"Old Sun, how's the situation?" After the two sides met, Sun Chuanzhong asked.

Sun Daping shook his head and said helplessly: "The devil has made up his mind to encircle the village from the front and back, and in addition, the left and right flanks of the village also have the troops deployed by the Japanese army. ”

"It's okay to say that we rely on the village as a fortification in the village, but once we get out of the village, we won't have any advantage in the open terrain."

"It's just that we've been guarding these two lines of fortifications, once the devils from the front village and the back village come together, and we lose the combat space, the situation will not be good."

The monk smiled, smiling calmly.

"Fangcai's resistance is just an appetizer, and the next is the hard dish."

"Company Commander Sun is right, let's continue to guard these two lines of fortifications, purely sitting and waiting for death. At present, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the devil puppet army has not come over, take the initiative to meet the outside, and fight street battles with the help of the environment of the village. ”

Speaking of which, now that the command is on him, the monk does not shirk, and immediately ordered:

"We have nearly one hundred and twenty soldiers, and then we will break them into pieces, all of them will sneak into the house, and use the surrounding terrain to fight street battles, curtain battles, ambush battles, and sneak attack battles with devils."

"But the single battle is inevitably less to take care of, so let's be a small group of three people, and the three teams form a large group, and when it gradually spreads, ensure that the area of action is roughly a triangle to ensure that all directions are not attacked by the Japanese army."

"Duan Peng!"

"Yes!"

"The firepower of our fighters is more fierce, and each group is divided into one fighter, and the Garand rifle is used as the main strike firepower of the group."

"Yes!" Duan Peng responded.

"In addition, the King of Slaughter we brought over this time, one by one, will be assigned first."

"Gotcha!" Duan Peng said excitedly: "I've been waiting for this moment for a long time, let's teach the little devil a good lesson today." ”

Look at the steel plates with arcs, wires, or leads that are quickly distributed to each group.

Sun Chuanzhong and Sun Daping, as well as the soldiers of the 28th Regiment, never understood what this was.

The monk's explanation was only one sentence: "This is a new type of mine newly developed by our independent regiment, or is it developed by our regiment commander under the guidance of the repair of equipment." ”

"As for the power, you'll see it soon."

……

……

The other side.

Over time.

On the side of the 28th Regiment base area, the cavalry company, plus the monk and Sun Chuanzhong and his entourage, quickly rushed to Xiaoli Village for reinforcements with the help of military motorcycles and bicycles, but Regiment Commander Lu always felt a little uneasy in his heart.

After analysis, Commander Lu, who has a keen sense of military smell, believes that the matter of Xiaoli Village is definitely not so simple.

The devil dared to go deep into the guerrilla zone of the 28th regiment and capture the people, maybe there is some trap in it.

The cavalry company, as well as the monks and Duan Peng, rushed to reinforce the past, maybe they would fall for the tricks of the devils.

Thinking of this, Head Lu didn't dare to delay.

One is the cavalry company, which is the treasure of its own 28th regiment.

Another monk and Duan Peng, as Lao Kong's right-hand man, came to Jizhong for reinforcements this time to help carry out anti-tank operations, which would have been folded in the hands of devils.

What did Head Lu take to explain to Kong Jie?

For the sake of safety, Regiment Commander Lu, who did not hesitate, hurriedly gathered the main forces of the first and second battalions and quickly rushed to the direction of Xiaoli Village for reinforcements.

When Ding Wei was still the commander of the regiment, the expansion of the 28th regiment was very fast, and the strength of the regiment increased to more than 3,500 at the most.

It's just that such an overly rapid expansion has also brought great drawbacks.

There were few guns and many people in the regiment, and two or three fighters could not carry a single gun.

Coupled with the fact that there are many recruits and few veterans, combat effectiveness is not formed at all.

Subsequently, Ding Wei was transferred to the new regiment as the commander, and the 28th regiment was swept by the Japanese army more than a dozen times.

Every counter-sweep is arduous and remarkable, and sacrifice is inevitable.

Today, the 28th Regiment, which originally had more than 3,500 people, has only nearly 2,000 people left.

Of course, war is the most cruel sand digger, and the 2,000 soldiers left behind have become veterans who have survived the artillery fire, and the soldiers are not slow to grow.

In addition, in the past six months, the 28th Regiment has cooperated with the Independent Regiment in many aspects, and there has been a great improvement in both economic and military equipment.

Therefore, although the strength of the 28th Regiment is much less than when it was at its peak before, the overall combat effectiveness has improved a lot.

The soldiers marched all the way to reinforce in the direction of Xiaoli Village.

Soon after, he met Li Shengmin, who was covering the transfer of the people, and some soldiers of the cavalry company.

As soon as the two sides met, several soldiers of the cavalry company saw their own regiment commander and gave a military salute, and their eyes turned red at that time:

"Regiment commander, let's go and save the company commander and the second battalion commander! In order to cover the transfer of the people, they stayed in the village to contain the devils, and now they are afraid that they are surrounded by devils in Xiaoli Village! ”

When Regiment Leader Lu heard this, he also chuckled in his heart, and immediately asked, "How many devils are there?" ”

The soldier replied: "I don't know the specifics, but the second battalion commander analyzed that the devil must have an ambush near Xiaoli Village." ”

"Okay, I know, you continue to cover the transfer of the people to the base area, and we will reinforce Xiaoli Village."

"Yes!"

The team re-embarked on the journey, and the speed of the original rapid march was a little faster under the urging of Commander Lu.

There were only more than 40 monks and Duan Peng, and there were only more than 70 people in the cavalry company, and now the war horses were all sent back.

If a team of more than 100 people really fell into the trap of the devils and was besieged in Lijia Village, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Commander Lu couldn't even be sure if the monk and Duan Peng could hold out until they brought troops to reinforce the past.

"This group of dog-day little devils actually made a fuss about the people...... Second Battalion Commander, Monk, Duan Peng, you have to hold on, I'll be there soon! ”

Head Lu prayed in his heart.

……

……

Xiao Li in the village.

The two-line fortifications set up by the monk and Duan Peng to deal with the front village and the back village are not close to each other, five or six hundred meters.

Within this distance of five or six hundred meters, the roads are criss-crossed, and the houses are arranged in a disorderly manner, which is the street battle area set up by the monks for the little devils.

In the fortifications of the two lines, the monk also sent several teams to attack and harass the Japanese army in order to slow down the advance of the Japanese army and buy time for the soldiers to be deployed in the street combat area.

An area of the village where a path connects houses to houses.

Sun Qingshan, the commander of the third platoon, led two soldiers of the 28th Regiment behind him to form a separate street fighting team and set up mines on a small road where the devils were very likely to pass.

To be precise, it is to set up the king of killings developed by the independent regiment repair equipment - directional anti-infantry mines.

The path is sandwiched between two houses on the left and right, and the path to the houses is two or three meters wide.

I saw Platoon Commander Sun pick up the weird curved steel plate with both hands, and then hold the left and right sides of the steel plate with both hands, and then, as if aiming when shooting, he also aimed at the small gap in the center of the top of the steel plate, and aimed in the direction of the road with his right eye.

A squad leader of the 28th Regiment on the side couldn't help but ask, "Platoon Commander Sun, what are you doing?" ”

"Oh, see the gap up there, it's the sight of this Killing King."

"What's it for?"

"Literate?"

The squad leader nodded, "I know some simple words." ”

Sun Qingshan pointed to the four big characters written on the front of the King of Slaughter and asked, "What do you read these four words?" ”

The squad leader read word for word: "This is the ...... Enemy? ”

Sun Qingshan smiled and nodded, while inserting the tripod under the King of Slaughter into the soil, and on the other hand, he aimed the words "This is facing the enemy" and aimed at the road that extended outside the house.

He also explained: "So these four words tell us that the direction of this side is the area where the enemy is killed."

What does that mean? The curved arc of this steel plate is facing this large area, and it is no exaggeration to say that the little devils within a hundred meters can kill as many as they can as many as they appear. ”

The squad leader laughed, and there was clearly doubt in this smile.

Another soldier of the 28th Regiment shook his head and said, "How is this possible? Squad leader, have you heard of such mines? ”

The squad leader shook his head: "If it really has this kind of power, it is better than a large-caliber shell, how can it be called a mine?" ”

"So it's not called a mine, it's called the King of Killing!"

Sun Qingshan clapped his hands as he spoke, and stood up, "Okay, it's over!" ”

Squad Leader: "......"

It was the first time the squad leader had seen such a strange mine, and the shape itself was strange, but now it didn't look like an ordinary mine buried in the ground, but was stuck in the ground.

The key is still so swaggering in the middle of the path, once the little devil comes, don't you see it at a glance?

"This ...... Platoon Commander Sun, this mine is placed here so brightly, didn't the devil see it at a glance? ”

Sun Qingshan asked rhetorically: "If you were a little devil, would you think this thing is a landmine?" ”

The squad leader was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

That's right, this ordinary person thinks it's a steel plate when he sees it!

But what the squad leader said also made sense, Sun Qingshan thought about it, and casually pulled a little straw on the side to cover the king of killing.

As for the cable that connects the King of Slaughter to the detonation, it is carefully buried in the soil on the side, and then extends all the way to the firewood room of the house.

Through the window of the firewood house, Sun Qingshan and the others could see the situation outside the road.

"This is a detonator, the kind that controlled the explosive packs buried in the ground and blew up the devil tank?"

Looking at the detonator prepared by Sun Qingshan, the squad leader asked with a look of surprise.

Sun Qingshan smiled and nodded.

This high-level detonation method made the squad leader and the two stunned, and suddenly looked forward to it, could it be that the power of this king of killing is really as terrible as Platoon Commander Sun said?

Other scattered small areas.

The monks were divided into nearly 40 groups, each of which was led by fighters from the independent regiment on a temporary basis.

Thirty of the teams were assigned to the King of Slaughter, and the group leader led the warriors to carefully deploy the King of Slaughter.

For the first time, the soldiers of the 28th Regiment faced the new type of mine of the King of Killing, and they were all puzzled in their hearts.

Even Sun Daping, the commander of the cavalry company, and Sun Chuanzhong, the commander of the second battalion, were no exception.

As for what this thing is, the fighters of the Independent Regiment are talking about it with a mysterious face.

Then wait and see!

Facing the two lines of fortifications in the front and back villages, gunshots rang out from time to time.

The devil was afraid of the various firepower methods shown by the Eighth Route Army before, and did not dare to move forward quickly.

Until the two sides clashed for a while, Kazuo Nakano, who was secretly observing from the rear, suddenly found that the firepower of the Eight Roads had weakened a lot, and the troops of the Eight Roads that appeared in the field of vision seemed to be much less.

"What the hell is going on?"

The devil's adjutant thought for a moment, and speculated: "Sir, could it be that the tunnels we destroyed were dug by the Eighth Road again, and they escaped through the passages in the village, right?" ”

When Kazuo Nakano heard this, this was worth it, how could a duck with a beak make it fly?

He hurriedly ordered artillery bombardment, covering the infantry to advance quickly, and it was necessary to eliminate the eight roads in the village in the shortest possible time.

In this way, the Japanese puppet army on both fronts broke through the two fortifications and entered the street battle area prepared for them by the monks.

But it is said that Xiaoli Village is not big, but it is not small either.

In this area of street warfare, there are more than 100 mud houses with earth and stone or wood and stone structures.

In such a large area, it is not too easy to hide a hundred and ten people.

Evenly divided, a household consisting of three or four earthen houses only needs to hide one or two warriors.

This is playing peek-a-boo, and the little devil doesn't want to find it easily.

The whole area suddenly became quiet, and even the quiet Kazuo Nakano felt a little uneasy in the bottom of his heart.

A second ago, there was a lot of artillery fire, and all kinds of chaotic sounds were mixed!

In the next second, with the sudden ceasefire on the side of the Eighth Route Army, and the Japanese army also ceasefired, the entire Xiaoli Village was surprisingly quiet.

"These damn eight roads, what are they playing? The detachments are scattered and advanced, carefully search, keep in touch with each team, and beware of sneak attacks from eight directions. ”

"Hey!"

The little devils attacked from front to back at the same time, slowly searching forward.

The house where the third platoon Chang Song Qingshan and a few people were located was in the edge area, and a Japanese squad leader slowly approached with seven or eight devils.

Soon, the path placed in front of the three platoon leaders appeared in the field of vision of several devils.

The King of Slaughter was planted in the middle of the road, covered with some straw.

The little devils kept their rifles on the lookout, and no one seemed to pay attention to the curved steel plate covered by straw.

The steel plate was like a piece of shard that had fallen from some armored vehicle or tank, and it was inconspicuous.

It's close.

Getting closer.

The leader of the devil squad was also very cautious, and he fell to the rear, letting the eight devils in front of him spread out and advance, pulling out a general fan-shaped area.

They were now preparing to search the few earthen houses in front of them.

On the orders of Kazuo Nakano, a carpet search was carried out to ensure that there were no eight ways to hide in each house.

In this way, when the two devils in the lead were less than three meters away from the king of slaughter who was covered by straw, one of the devils suddenly sighed softly.

When the other devils heard the movement, they all looked towards the metallic King of Slaughter, who was covered by straw but exposed some steel plates through the cracks.

But it was clear that the devil was not particularly wary, as if he was curious about what this thing was.

At this moment, the devils were almost all facing the protrusion of the King of Slaughter.

Sun Qingshan lowered his voice and said, "Look carefully!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, he pressed the detonator at the same time.

The current in the cable extends rapidly at the speed of light.

The next moment......

Boom –

The explosion wasn't too violent, not even as loud as the explosion of a 60 mortar's shell.

With a look of curiosity, he squeezed his head and looked at the squad leader and the little soldier in the area where the devil was located outside the house through the wooden window, but he was directly stunned on the spot.

The look that immediately appeared on their faces was shock, consternation, even fear, and finally joy and excitement.

Warriors are not murderous executioners.

But if the object of the slaughter is the aggressor who invaded his own homeland.

For the soldiers, killing the enemy, defending the motherland, and killing the Japanese invaders will bring everyone a sense of guilt that is not much more than killing a chicken or a duck.

Outside the earthen house.

The squad leader and the little soldier finally understood the meaning of "facing the enemy".

The moment the explosion sounded, the entire curved steel plate shattered into fragments and flew out at a terrifying speed towards the area opposite the bulge.

Not only that, but the inside of the steel plate seems to be filled with a large number of debris, such as iron nails and steel balls.

The production process of these things is simple, and the steel rails taken from the rails of the devil can be mass-produced by smelting at high temperatures.

In order to enhance the power of the new directional anti-infantry mine of the King of Killing, the repair institute filled the inside of the steel plate with a large amount of anti-personnel debris mainly steel balls.

At this moment, it suddenly exploded, like a row of shotguns, shooting towards the oncoming devils.

A large number of steel balls, iron nails, and fragments were spilled out like splashed ink.

It was shocking enough.

These little devils are really unlucky, originally the killing surface of this killing king is a fan-shaped surface that spreads outward.

These little devils just searched and advanced in a fan-shaped way, and because of curiosity, they turned their faces to the king of killing.

With an explosion, the steel balls and iron nails that flew out at high speed caught the devils off guard, and a large number of sharp fragments were even directly embedded on the faces of the devils looking towards the king of killing.

The eight devils who searched for the advance in front fell down with great pain.

He did not die immediately, but gradually perished in endless pain.

Their bodies writhed like maggots, and the pain on their faces made their hands, which were also embellished with some fragments, scratch and scratch at their faces.

I can't wait to completely tear off the skin and flesh on my face.

But because of the severe pain, he just trembled in wailing and despaired.

The leader of the devil squad in the rear was a little farther away, a distance of twenty or thirty meters, but he was still shot by steel balls, and his body was inlaid with five or six steel balls, and blood stains flowed down his body and soaked his clothes.

At this moment, what is more terrible than death for these little devils is the fear brought by this unknown weapon.

Even to death, they couldn't figure out what kind of hell weapon the Eight Roads had concocted like a steel plate hidden in the straw.

It's like a frightening nightmare.

Till death extinguishes!
