Chapter Forty-Six: Interspersed with Success
In the jungle.
A group of mud-drenched, so to speak, soldiers scurried through the woods. If it weren't for the murderous weapons in their hands, it would be hard to imagine that this group of savage-like objects was a group of soldiers.
Everyone had injuries on their bodies, either from a tree branch, or from a leech bite or from a fall through the swamp. Chen Yu, as the vanguard, was the most miserable, slipped while climbing a mountain stream, but fortunately, he fell and his clothes and pants were torn.
When a group of ragged soldiers appeared behind the Japanese and were attacking the hillside where Dead Dead was stationed with all their strength, no one noticed that the Japanese knew that we would not have reinforcements and did not care about the rear at all. All the troops were attacking the hillside, and outside our range, the woods were full of wounded Japanese soldiers, and a few meditaries were treating the wounded.
Picking up the binoculars on his chest, Chen Yu wiped the mud and dirt on the lenses with the corner of his clothes. Smoke billowed from the positions in the distance, and the Japanese troops were charging, and had even rushed to the positions.
Looking down the hillside, a Japanese commander was also using a telescope to observe the hillside, and next to him stood a second lieutenant with bandages on his hands. The two talked from time to time, and it seemed that they were confident about capturing the position and annihilating the Sichuan army that made them hate itchy.
Chen Yu put down the binoculars: "Check the weapon, don't say anything hypocritical." We haven't been treated as human beings since we went abroad, but we can't help but see ourselves as inappropriate, so be prepared! ”
"What a deflated calf, Lao Tzu killed him."
The dragon had discarded his machine gun and was armed with a rifle he had picked up from the corpses of his comrades as he walked through the jungle. We lost five men through the jungle, two drowned in the swamp, two died by stumbling down the hill, and one unlucky man fell into a pit with his empty foot.
This time, Chen Yu wants to learn to die, go and stab the Japanese in the back, hoping that the people there will still have the ability to launch a countercharge. If the people on the dead position can't countercharge and drive the Japanese army back, then we will also be beaten to death by the Japanese army.
The dense jungle provided cover for everyone, and here all the attention of the Japanese army was on the hillside. Chen Yu didn't care about the wounded Japanese soldiers, but went straight to the Japanese commander.
"Get on the bayonet."
'Wow——! ’
At the sound of an order, a bayonet was installed on the rifle.
Looking at the Japanese commander who was less than two hundred meters, Chen Yu was the first to step out of the jungle bushes, followed by Milong and Bu Lai, and the rest of the people also rushed forward.
When more than 60 people suddenly came out of the forest behind them, the Japanese army had not yet discovered them.
'Bang bang bang...
'Da-da-da-da!! ’
A net of rifle and submachine gun fire was fired at the confident Japanese captain, killing him in an instant and falling to the ground along with the rest of his life. The Japanese still had a dozen soldiers left at the bottom of the hillside, and when they found that Chinese troops were attacking from behind, they blew their copper whistles.
The rear of the Japanese army was in chaos, and the death of the bloody battle with the Japanese army on the hillside was also seen, and the Japanese army who attacked the position was also discovered.
Dead Dead Dead knocked out two Japanese soldiers around him with a shell gun, "Our people, interspersed with people, have been inserted into the rear of the Japanese army. Everyone, follow Lao Tzu to push down this group of Japanese devils and rush into their positions! ”
"Our people, brothers, rush!" Chief Ah Yi raised his pistol and shouted.
"Rush, !!"
Chen Yu's appearance kept the precarious position, and the Japanese attacking troops saw that there was an enemy attack in the rear, and they had no intention of continuing to capture this hillside, and began to flee for their lives.
The defenders on the hillside began to counter-charge, and it seemed that victory would soon come.
The Japanese formation was not chaotic, but the attacking troops rushed back like stingers, but Chen Yu was very uncomfortable. They were counterattacked by the Japanese troops who did not rush up the hillside, but stayed at the bottom of the hill for fire support, and Chen Yu and others, who were once pressed by heavy machine guns, could not raise their heads, so they could only lie on their stomachs or hide behind rocks and trees to shoot.
In addition to the sudden attack and shooting of more than a dozen Japanese soldiers, there were also those two officers, and the rest were only pressed and beaten by the Japanese army.
Chen Yu got up and rolled into a crater. The crater is so narrow that no one can fit in, so you can only bend over and hide inside, but there is also a shooting position anyway.
Raising his rifle, Chen Yu aimed at the Type 92 machine gun shooter who was changing ammunition plates a hundred meters away, and a bullet accurately hit the shooter's chest, and a bullet hit Jun Cao, who was whistling. Hiding his head in the crater to change the magazine, Chen Yu continued to aim at the Japanese machine gun shooter who had replaced the ammunition supply plate.
'Bang! ’
A bullet was crooked and hit the thigh of the Japanese soldier, and immediately the Japanese soldier filled the position and continued to replace the ammunition supply plate.
'Bang! Someone next to him fired a bullet that passed through the steel helmet of a Japanese light machine gunner. Chen Yu tilted his head and saw that he was aiming and shooting, and even took off the grenade from his body when aiming, and put it in a place where he could pick it up and throw it at any time.
There was a huge shout on the hillside, and the dead and dead led the surviving people to counterattack the Japanese army, and the heavy machine gunners on the hillside seemed to find Chen Yu and others, and began to adjust the firing range to suppress the fire of the Japanese troops around Chen Yu.
"Official, it's going to be hemp!"
I was not surprised to find that the heavy machine gunner on the hillside was to be numb: "To be numb, it is a heavy machine gun that wants to be numb." ”
"Get out of the way and shoot the Japanese from the flank!" Chen Yu didn't care who was operating the heavy machine gun from the hillside to provide fire suppression.
He was beckoning the remaining forty or so people to retreat from the side of the road, giving up the junction to the Japanese troops, and letting the Japanese retreat from the junction, so that they would not rush towards him like crazy. The only way to stop the charge of hundreds of Japanese troops was to give way to the Japanese troops, let them escape, and then shoot them from the flank, which was the right choice.
The remaining forty or so people retreated into the woods while shooting, and fired at the Japanese in the woods. Seeing the retreat of the Chinese troops blocking behind him, a large number of Japanese troops began to retreat, running while resisting the pursuit from the dead.
Chen Yu fired from the flank, leaving more corpses on the land, but more of the enemy was killed by the dead men who charged from the hillside. What made Chen Yu's heart palpitate was the number of Japanese troops, there were more than 200 people, and more than a squadron of Japanese troops retreated, so how many Japanese troops were pursuing us?
This careless Japanese army, which hated us to the core, fled into the jungle lanes and chased after them.
"Lao Tzu said that you have never fought such a battle, is it a war to run away with two shots? That's how wars should be fought, and that's how the Japanese are. "Dead, dead, screaming while chasing.
"Rush! Rush me all and scatter the Japanese army! ”
"Rush, !!"
The routs who had previously threatened to be unable to resist did not speak, but only shot bullets from the chambers of their guns, feeling this hard-won victory, even though they had less than half of them left. If the Japanese army organizes an effective counterattack, we will lose this pursuit. But victory is victory, and like our rout, they don't care if they shoot their ass.
The final pursuit ended with grenades thrown at each other, and the Japanese fled into the jungle and disappeared, and the heavy rain cut us off the pursuit.
Chen Yu stood up and found that the company of more than 100 people when he went there was now only about 30 people left lying on the ground panting.
Under the pouring rain, under a hillside less than the size of a football field, there were corpses everywhere. The heavy rain washed everything on the ground, and the smoke from the shells filled the sky, and those who did not die were glad to be alive, and those who died did not say a word.
The two squadrons plus the troops of the directly subordinate brigade, a total of more than 700 Japanese troops, were annihilated by us more than 300 people, abandoned a large number of wounded and fled, and the rest fled into the jungle. Less than half of us survived, and when the victory came, everyone was cheering, and it was a hard-won victory.
Without the conceit of the Japanese army, abandoning heavy firepower and baggage, without their rapid march and losing a lot of physical strength and energy, without rushing up that hillside at all costs, without Chen Yu leading a company to cut into the rear and destroy their chain of command. Maybe we're all going to die here, on this frontier that no one knows.
The ambush was successful, the interspersed surprise attack was successful, and now it was Chen Yu's turn to do what he liked the most.
He led people to execute all the wounded of the Japanese army, executed all the wounded of the Japanese soldiers who were wailing with light machine guns, and then hung the Japanese captain on a tree, this time in a different position, and hung directly upside down on the tree.
This is a tradition, not only Chen Yu, but also interested people are hanging the corpses of Japanese soldiers from trees.
