Li Yunlong's order was to kill the Japanese scouts quietly.
Therefore, Xu Yonghai and Wei Dayong both took off their submachine guns and each carried short knives and a shell gun.
Two figures quietly jumped out from behind the slope and quickly disappeared into the withered grass.
The mountains on both sides of the canyon are covered with dead grass. You can imagine that the vegetation here will be more lush in summer.
If it's summer, it won't be a problem if dozens of people quietly touch the grass. But in winter, the grass and trees are withered and they look sparse.
The gray military uniforms of the two men blended well with the grass and trees. Captain Xu gestured to Wei Dayong, indicating that they should split up.
With a stern look and sharp eyes, Wei Dayong nodded to Xu Yonghai, and then quietly touched his target.
Li Yunlong stuck out half of his head, held the telescope in front of his eyes, and looked at it anxiously.
Company Commander Xu and Wei Dayong were still 100 meters away from the Japs' reconnaissance, and the Japs' engineers were almost clearing mines to reach the mouth of the canyon. The two continued to move towards the Japs' scouts.
If a large army touches it like this, it will definitely not escape the eyes of the Japanese scouts.
However, Company Commander Xu and Wei Dayong were both very skilled, and they were hidden in the dead grass, so it was difficult for the Japanese scouts to find them.
Finally, Wei Dayong found a position about 10 meters away from the two Japanese scouts. He was lurking in the grass, like a dormant cobra, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to the Japanese.
The leading Japanese troops just rounded the corner, and the two Japanese scouts waved their hands downwards.
Taking advantage of this gap, Wei Dayong jumped forward another 5 meters.
At this time, he was only 5 meters away from the Japs, which was already an extremely dangerous distance. As long as the Japs were not blind, they would definitely be able to see him if they turned around.
He took out the bayonet from his mouth and took out the hidden darts from his shoes.
The moment the Japs turned around, Wei Dayong threw out the hidden weapons in his hands like lightning.
The devil only saw a cold light flash before his eyes, and then something was inserted into his throat. His breathing became rapid, as if all the strength in his body was drained out, and he fell to the ground uncontrollably, and then his consciousness fell into boundless darkness.
and in loneliness.
The moment the concealed weapon was inserted into the Japs throat, Wei Dayong rushed forward and struck a blow, completely killing the Japs.
Then, he poked half of his head out and looked down at the road below. The Japanese were walking slowly and didn't notice anything unusual for the time being.
On the other side, Captain Xu took advantage of the gap between one Japanese soldier defecating and another Japanese soldier being on guard, and first wiped the neck of the Japanese soldier who was defecating.
Then he made some noise to attract another Japanese, who stabbed him to death with a bayonet.
When I saw through the telescope that Wei Dayong and Captain Xu had neatly eliminated the Japanese, I couldn't help but secretly say that they were good at it.
Li Yunlong waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately jumped out from behind the slope. The Eighth Route Army troops all over the mountains and plains, holding weapons in their hands, surged towards the commanding heights like a tide.
At the foot of Guaizi Mountain, in the canyon.
There were more than 700 Japanese soldiers, and they were divided into two parts.
The engineers were still carefully sweeping mines in front, and Arai Toyoyoshi was riding a military horse, scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes.
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he faintly noticed something was wrong.
Then he suddenly raised his head and looked towards the commanding heights of the mountain. He saw the scouts who were standing on the commanding heights just a few minutes ago.
Disappeared.
However, Toyoshi Arai didn't pay too much attention, guessing that the scouts might have neglected their duties.
Because if the scouts were attacked, it would be impossible not to sound the alarm.
"Hey, you guys, go over there and have a look!"
Arai Toyoyoshi pointed to the few Japanese soldiers on the truck, and then pointed to the commanding heights of the mountain.
The four Japs jumped out of the truck and ran towards the hillside with their guns in hand.
Okazaki Ichiro was sitting in the truck with his eyes closed and concentrating. When he heard the noise, he opened his eyes and asked, "Arai-kun, what happened?"
Because the engineers in front have been clearing mines, the truck is traveling very slowly, a few minutes slower than normal walking.
"Report to the captain!" Toyoshi Arai replied, "The scouts at the commanding heights seem to be missing."
"Nani?"
After hearing this, Ichiro Okazaki immediately stuck his head out of the car window and looked up, and sure enough he didn't see the scout.
Okazaki Ichiro was shocked!
The more he looked, the more dangerous the terrain became.
If the enemy blocked the valley entrance at both ends and then opened fire from a high position, the Okazaki Brigade would immediately be in danger.
At that moment, Okazaki Ichiro narrowed his eyes and said sternly: "Tell the engineers to stop clearing mines. All soldiers run forward and speed up through the canyon. Quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Okazaki Ichiro's ears rang with the rapid sound of machine gunfire.
Looking up quickly, the four soldiers who were sent to the commanding heights were twitching like they were electrocuted, and then rolled down the hillside.
Seeing this scene, Okazaki Ichiro's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. He was really afraid of what might happen.
What a bad thing, there is an ambush!
At the same time, a red flare slowly rose into the sky from a high point above the canyon.
Okazaki Ichiro saw dots of firelight flashing above the canyon, and the next moment, gunshots as dense as exploding beans rang in his ears, which frightened him and quickly turned his head back.
"Quickly, retreat quickly!" Ichiro Okazaki opened the door and jumped out of the car, waving his command knife and shouted loudly, "Retreat at full speed, quickly!"
However, it was already too late to retreat at this time. As soon as he finished speaking, dense wooden handle grenades were thrown down from the top of the canyon, and a flock of sparrows flew in the sky.
Half were hand grenades made in the border area with wooden handles, and half were German-style grenades. Li Yunlong ordered the soldiers to use a mixture of the two types of grenades.
Boom boom boom, boom boom, boom boom boom——
The entire canyon was instantly enveloped in the flames and smoke of grenade explosions.
A dozen soldiers in front ran forward, preparing to run out of the valley mouth.
The Eighth Route Army soldiers suddenly appeared on the hillside at the entrance of the valley.
Before these dozen Japanese soldiers could approach, intensive submachine gunfire rang out.
The submachine gun in the hand of the Eighth Route Army soldier opened fire.
The dozen or so Japs were shot and twitched as if they were electrocuted, then screamed and fell to the ground.
"Baga!" Seeing that the exit was blocked by fire, Okazaki Ichiro's face instantly turned black. This time he was in big trouble!
"Baga!" Ichiro Okazaki shouted angrily, "Fight back! Fight back!"
Toyoshi Arai waved his command sword, pointed at the commanding heights, and shouted sternly: "Kill the chicken for me!"
The next moment, a bullet accurately penetrated Arai Toyoshi's eyebrows, penetrated his head, and then shot out from the back of his head, shooting out a bloody arrow.
"Arai-kun!" Ichiro Okazaki screamed.
But suddenly, he discovered that the soldiers behind him were falling down in sheets, screaming in agony, under the fierce firepower from eight directions.
Okazaki Ichiro couldn't help but gasped, and he found that cold sweat was flowing down his forehead.
This eight ways is so evil.
Not only was the firepower very fierce, but the ammunition seemed to be sufficient, and the gunfire, which was as dense as firecrackers, never stopped. If the other Eighth Route Army had come down to engage in hand-to-hand combat, I'm afraid.
Another round of grenades whizzed out and exploded in the air above the Japs. The short and continuous explosions were deafening.
The flying shrapnel roared down with the breath of death. The panicked soldiers could not find a safe corner. Many soldiers were directly hit by several grenades at the same time, and their heads were blown apart.
