Chapter 284: Relive the Nightmare
"Captain, our team has been reorganized and is ready to attack at any time!"
Kota Murahashi looked at the soldier in front of him who was reporting to him and nodded heavily.
"Very good, set off immediately, reinforce the blocked troops of Ashikaga, and carry out a continuous sweep of the area south of Jinzhou, this time we must completely annihilate all the guerrillas entrenched in the surroundings!"
"Yes!"
After rounds of wars and gunsmoke, Kota Murahashi has been promoted from the recruit who always wants to find an opportunity to escape back to his homeland to the captain of a team of 100 people.
At this moment, he is more mature, more stable, and more cold-blooded, and he has carved more than fifty scratches on the butt of his rifle, chasing after his idol Rokuro Amano's goal of 100 people.
Of course, even though he had become the captain, the battle in the valley still haunted him like a nightmare, and sometimes he woke up in his sleep and broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, the demonic enemy team did not appear again, and although they also encountered hard bones in the next battle, the difference was only in the length of resistance, and the offensive of the Kwantung Army was still overwhelming.
But just like the situation they encountered on the first day they came to this continent, the guerrillas are still their biggest headache, those soldiers are like loaches that can't slip their hands, they can't catch it, they can't finish fighting, when you turn around and march, they will put cold guns in the back, you turn around and chase them and hide in the mountains and don't come out, if you send a large number of troops to sweep up, you can wipe out a few of their strongholds, but then your overall tactical deployment and arrangement will be disrupted. Time can also be postponed indefinitely.
The empire demanded to occupy the whole of China as quickly as possible, and the deeper they went into the hinterland of China, the longer the supply line would be, and if it dragged on into a war of attrition, it would be extremely disadvantageous to the empire.
The most important thing is that the Soviet Union is still eyeing the north of the empire, and the many small islands in the south are still facing the covetousness of the Western powers, and several big figures in the military department are arguing all day long, and no one looks down on anyone.
In Murahashi Kota's view, they should calm down, send more compatriots to move to the land of China to take root, and completely control the area they have occupied in their hands, just like North Korea, instead of always being greedy for merit, Huaxia does not have an old saying called "You can't eat a fat man in one bite", and now Murahashi Kota can deeply understand the meaning of this sentence.
But speaking of which, he is only a captain, and he is not qualified to participate in the discussion of the military department at all, all he can do is follow orders.
The Kwantung Army once again carried out a large-scale sweep, and they received information that the enemy's guerrillas were hiding in the great forest of Jinsai, and three infantry squadrons led by Adachi Shaosa of the 73rd Company had already entered first.
However, according to the soldiers who dragged on, the Adachi Brigade seemed to have stepped on the enemy's trap and fell into a bitter battle, and ordered Kota Murahashi to lead his squad to rush to support and annihilate all the guerrillas who were lying in ambush there.
Of course, there were also Matsuo and Suzy's squads, which together numbered nearly five hundred, more than a dozen machine guns, and ten mortars.
Kota Murahashi looked at the soldiers running forward neatly, and a sense of pride and glory rose in his heart, these were all his soldiers, he had grown from a recruit to a veteran, and his goal was to become a general and complete the 100-man beheading, just like his previous commander, Rokuro Amano, who was admired.
With a neat pace, the Murabashi team drove along the forest path deep into the mountains, and when they arrived at the preset location, there were still a few scouts from the Adachi Brigade, who were responsible for receiving reinforcements there.
"Sir, Captain Adachi and they are trapped in the valley inside, the battle is still going on, but the gunfire has become more and more rare, they should not be able to hold it anymore, just now Captain Matsuo and Captain Suzhi have led their respective teams, from the left and right sides of the roundabout outflanking the past, they let us stay here to tell you that you led people to attack from the front, and the enemy was annihilated in three ways."
Kota Murahashi nodded and said: "I know, you guys stand down, all the warriors of the Murahashi team~~~ The time has come to be loyal to the empire and bravely kill the enemy~~~ Pick up the rifles in your hands, put on the bayonets, you must know that the front is all living feats, fighting today, the heroic one I will reward him with a flower girl~~!" ”
"Roar, roar~~~!"
The soldiers of the Murahashi squad let out a cry of excitement and rushed in one by one with guns in their hands.
When he waited for the village bridge and Taiya followed the soldiers into the depths of the dense forest, he always felt that something was wrong.
Where did the Adachi squad scout who had just stayed there speak with that accent? Kanto accent? Or Hokkaido? It sounds a little strange, forget it, now is not the time to care about these little things, whoever rushes fast can kill more enemies and get more credit, he has to get closer to his goal of 100 people, maybe he can complete this feat today and become the idol of the new generation in the Kwantung Army.
"Bang Bang Bang~~~~Da Da Da~~"
As they approached the valley's forested hinterland, sporadic gunshots still rang out from time to time, but they were surrounded by dense trees, and the terrain was undulating and extremely difficult to see.
Kota Murahashi ordered the team to stop first, and then asked the two scouts to climb the tree to observe the situation, but the scouts reported that they did not find the enemy and the target of the engagement, which made Kota Murahashi a little puzzled.
"How could it not be? The scout clearly said that the Matsuo team and the Suzy team had already outflanked us, and we were not far from the direction where the gunshots came from, so it was impossible for the Adachi team to die without a single person left, right? Even if there is no one left, there must be a corpse, but have any of you seen a corpse along the way? ”
The soldiers who were questioned looked at each other and all subconsciously shook their heads.
Yes, they came in and found no bodies, and in retrospect it was strange that the dense weeds and bushes did not seem to show signs of a group of people walking, and if one or two troops passed through it, they would have trodden a path.
Thinking of this, Kota Murahashi's heart skipped a pound and blurted out, "Oops, we were fooled!" Everyone returns the same way and forms a vigilant formation! ”
At the moment when his voice sounded, an accident suddenly happened, and the dense and chaotic bushes around him suddenly turned up collectively as if they had come to life, and under those bushes there were black and green human faces, armed with automatic rifles, firing at the same time with a half-kneeling shooting action.
The sound of "bang bang bang" sounded from all directions, and several of Murahashi Kota's team were shot and fell to the ground screaming in an instant, and the other soldiers couldn't tell where the enemy was coming from, so they shrank their heads and raised their rifles and began to fire back into the woods.
At this time, a deep fear welled up in Murahashi's heart, a fear that had been buried deep in his heart for a long time, and he thought that he had been completely overcome, that was the fear left behind when he was ambushed in the valley.
"Yaga! Everyone retreat~~~ retreat the same way~~~ Keep the defensive formation and don't mess up, the other party is the elite of the Chinese people, don't underestimate the enemy! ”
Yuki Murahashi yelled and pulled out his pistol and began to shoot back at the place where the gunfire rang out, and he didn't care if he could hit it or not, and firing a few shots was always beneficial to escape.
"Puff~"
At this moment, a soldier beside Kota Murahashi shook his body several times in a row, and slowly collapsed, with three more blood holes on his forehead, chest, and between his legs.
What? This...... What kind of marksmanship is this? In such a chaotic situation, it can also accurately hit the vital point, and it is three shots in a row!
Kota Murahashi's heart shook violently, and he turned his head and stepped on the weeds with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and retreated in the direction he came.
And the soldiers around him were no longer able to maintain their defensive formation at the moment, and began to show a tendency to retreat.
"Brothers, rush ~~~ to stop these little devils, don't let them run away~~~ blow the trumpet!"
A loud shout came from the dense forest, followed by the sound of a trumpet that seemed to be urging life to resound throughout the dense forest valley.
"Da la da ~ ~ "
It's this trumpet, it's this trumpet! It's them, it's them!
Kota Murahashi has thoroughly recalled the experience of the attack of the last defeat, and the elusive Shina soldiers will also blow the trumpet of this rhythm before charging, and it should be followed by a hand-to-hand white-knuckle battle!
Murahashi Kota was just about to make a loud voice to remind his soldiers, but the one who was running at the front suddenly fell down in a large area, and when he looked down, he realized that at some point in the dense weeds, a rope had been blocked, just like a tripping horse in ancient times.
"Yaga! Bastard! ”
Murahashi Kota was furious in his heart, drew the long knife at his waist and cut the rope, and with a knife in one hand and a gun in the other, he commanded the soldiers around him to move closer to him, and beware of the enemy's white-knuckle combat.
But in the next moment, the grass behind him suddenly shook twice, and Murahashi Kota swept over and raised his hand to stab it there.
But his long knife failed to stab the target, but he saw a strange man with a whole body that looked like a leaf suddenly pounced on him, and a thin knife with a strange shape like a wolf's tooth slashed horizontally, flashing a cold light, and went straight to his neck!
"Ahh
Kota Murahashi saw that he couldn't dodge and screamed in surprise.
But I don't know if it was because of his good luck, a soldier who was shot next to him hit him, causing him to lean back, indirectly dodging the fatal slash to the neck, but even so, the tip of the unusually sharp wolf tooth dagger still slashed the tip of his nose.
"Ahh Bastard......! ”
Murahashi Kota's eyes were blood-red, and the tip of his nose was cut off by the other party, and the blood flowed like a stream.
