Chapter 172: Rapid Ambush

"Hit!" Li Yunlong gave an order, He Jiaming directly pulled the trigger, he hit a heavy machine gunner, and four Japanese soldiers carried a heavy machine gun.

One of them was hit directly in the head, and in an instant the heavy machine gun tilted to one side.

"All for all...... Sudden Sudden Rush! ”

All kinds of weapons fired in unison, He Jiaming quickly pushed the bullet into the chamber of the gun, aiming and shooting in one go, "bang......"

At this time, the Japanese army was already in chaos, and they did not expect that someone would really dare to ambush one of their brigades, and the enemy's gunfire was undulating, as if there were quite a few people!

Xiao Yu and Yi were riding on a war horse, and when he heard the gunshot, he was stunned at first, and then he was pulled off the horse by his adjutant, and even pressed him under him to protect his safety.

The new regiment did not regard him as a target for sniping, and his surroundings were much safer, but the artillery wing behind them was bombarded by eighteen mortars, and the people were on their backs.

"Bang......" He Jiaming emptied the last bullet, and then looked around, at this time, the reconnaissance company was shooting the last bullet, "Retreat!" Seeing that everyone collected their guns, He Jiaming immediately ordered.

At this time, the new group of soldiers on the entire mountain crest got up one after another, lowered their figures, and then quickly evacuated according to the predetermined route.

For a while, there was an eerie silence on the battlefield!

Xiao Yu and Yi heard that there was no gunfire at this time, and they wanted to get up strangely, "Get out of the way!" ”

"Hey!" The adjutant hurriedly got up, and then enriched the brigade commander.

Xiao Yu and half of them knelt on the ground, took out their binoculars, and looked at the mountain, "Order, the infantry artillery immediately set up a position, and at the same time send a squadron to the mountain to test the attack!" ”

"Hey!" The adjutant turned to the herald.

And they tossed and turned for about ten minutes, and then aimed at the mountain and began to shell, but they never got any counterattack, and when the tentative squadron arrived at the mountain ridge, there was no one!

"Yaga!" Xiao Yu and Yi were furious, "Count our losses immediately!" ”

"Hey!" Xiao Yu and Yi sat on a stone beside him, holding the command knife in both hands, but he was thinking about it in his head.

This group of enemies is obviously just running away after one round, they do not have the strength to eat one of their own brigades, and the use of such tactics is obviously a drain on their own vitality and baggage.

Although Xiao Yu Youyi has been worried about the future recently, as the commander of the Major General's Brigade, he doesn't know anything.

"Report to Your Excellency the Brigade Commander, the damage has been counted!" The adjutant came back and handed a list to Tama-yo-ichi.

I took it and looked at it, and my heart suddenly sank, more than 300 people killed in the battle were nothing, but more than 500 people were injured.

There are nearly 1,000 casualties, which is not small!

Especially the wounded soldiers, the seriously injured are being rescued, and the lightly injured also need to be bandaged, which is so huge.

However, at this time, he was not angry, but very happy, "This should be the main force of the Eighth Route Army!" ”

"Your Excellency Brigade Commander, why do you think it's the Eighth Route Army?" The adjutant asked.

"They are using our weapons and equipment, according to intelligence before, the Eighth Route Army in the Lucheng area has robbed a large number of our weapons and equipment, and they will definitely arm their main force!"

"Now it seems that the lost military column in Huo County was snatched by them!"

Xiao Yu and Yi threw away the list in their hands, "Order, the troops will set off immediately, take the corpses of the imperial soldiers and the wounded, and go to Hongdong County!" ”

"Leave the wounded soldiers, and then the troops continue to advance rapidly, I want to eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Your Excellency Brigade Commander, our artillery wing has lost a lot!"

"It doesn't matter, just mobilize the artillery of the infantry wing directly during the battle, and now we must seize the main force of the Eighth Route Army!" Xiao Yuhe was not worried, "They don't have the strength to confront us head-on, so they will retreat after just one round!" ”

"When it happens again, I'll change my tactics!"

"Hey!" The adjutant immediately went to give the order, and the 31st Brigade quickly continued to advance and went directly to Hongdong County.

After the retreat of the new regiment, it still advanced parallel to the railway line and crossed Hongdong County, and then began to repair.

However, He Jiaming with the reconnaissance company did not go with the large army, they stopped directly not far away, after the enemy shelled the ridge, they did not pursue, He Jiaming was several kilometers away, directly observing the small map.

After discovering that the enemy has counted the losses, move on.

He Jiaming looked at it, the enemy's casualties were less than a thousand, but the wounded soldiers exceeded five hundred, and they had to deal with the wounded soldiers first.

To put it bluntly, this effect is average, most of the Japanese soldiers killed were completed by reconnaissance companies, and the others are still much worse.

However, in this way, the enemy's strength was almost reduced by one-eighth, and He Jiaming still did not have much vigilance after seeing that the enemy continued to advance, which was a bit strange.

Naturally, he didn't know what Xiao Yu and One thought, but this was to give the new regiment a second chance, but He Jiaming thought that he should be careful, and he was ready to let the reconnaissance company fight once!

"Follow me!" The reconnaissance company advanced rapidly, and before reaching Hongdong County, it found a position about 500 meters away from the enemy.

This distance is already very far, and the soldiers of the reconnaissance company cannot guarantee an accurate hit, but He Jiaming just wants to hit it and hit the enemy's intentions.

Seeing the enemy constantly approaching, He Jiaming put his right index finger on the trigger, "Fight!" ”

"Bang Bang ......"

This time each fired a shot, and then immediately retreated, not even the grenadiers and light machine guns were deployed, just rifles.

"Assault!" Although the enemy was attacked by surprise, they did not panic, but the strength of two squadrons, which immediately broke away from the ranks, actually charged towards them.

He Jiaming had already turned around and retreated, observing through the small map, and instantly understood the intention of the 31st Brigade.

They're trying to catch themselves!

The previous ambush was easy to judge, and the intention was obviously to consume vital strength and baggage, and the brigade commander of the little devil understood this and also wanted to use himself as bait.

This is interesting, since this is the case, then the 31st Brigade, the new regiment is decided.

The Japanese pursued for a while, but did not catch up, after all, the distance between the two sides was 500 meters at the beginning, and the enemy did not seem to be very interested in this small force, and at the same time did not dare to break away from the large force too much.

Kodama Yoichi's idea was simple, first bite the enemy with the strength of two squadrons, and then most of them followed.

"Your Excellency Brigade Commander, the enemy in this ambush seems to have only one company!" The adjutant said.

"Well, this should be a small group of enemies after the break, they just want to harass us, our goal is to capture the main force of the Eighth Route Army!" Xiao Yu Yoyi said.
