Chapter 66

A bitter smile flashed across Zhou Cheng's face.

Although he guessed this result at first sight when he saw Tang Shengbo, he felt a different feeling in his heart when he actually heard it from him, and then his expression became more and more serious.

The Japanese army came faster than expected, and the guerrillas were not ready to fight.

This is how war is. The enemy will not tell you the time and place. They may launch an attack at any time and catch yourself off guard, just like now.

"Captain, what happened?" Tang Yufeng ran over and asked after hearing the news.

"The devils are here!" Zhou Cheng replied, and after pausing for two seconds, he made a painful decision: "The remaining supplies at the garrison are not needed. Time is tight, so the guerrillas will divide their troops now."

"Old Tang, you immediately lead the second platoon to prepare surprises for the Japanese in the camp, and then march quickly to the first line of defense we built before, and prepare to fight with the invading Japanese and puppet troops."

"Although we have decided to give up on the station, we can't make what they get too easy."

"The troops can not only use guerrilla warfare to attack the enemy, take them around the mountains, but also use favorable terrain to block the Japanese and puppet troops entering the mountains layer by layer while ensuring the retreat and their own safety, and consume a lot of their living power."

Tang Yufeng immediately received the order: "Okay, I'll go and prepare now!"

Zhou Cheng shook his head: "Don't worry, wait until Squad Leader Tang clearly introduces the situation of the invading Japanese and puppet troops before preparing. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle."

Tang Shengbo understood the gods intently: "Captain, the Japanese and puppet troops attacking us this time are very strange."

"In the past, there were many puppet troops and few Japanese soldiers. In order to reduce their own losses, the Japanese let the puppet troops take the lead when they went to the battlefield. They could not only serve as cannon fodder, block bullets, but also fight for consumption with us."

"The Japanese accounted for more than half of the enemies that came out this time, with more than 400 people, and the puppet army had only one company."

"The Japanese army also brought four mortars and four heavy machine guns, all carrying them on their shoulders, and walked in the middle of the team."

Zhou Cheng couldn't figure it out either.

But time is tight and there is not much time for him to think about this issue and decisively ordered: "No matter what the Japanese have, our combat plan remains unchanged, and soldiers will block the water and soil."

"I'll prepare for everyone ten minutes, and then we'll divide the troops."

"Except for the second platoon, other troops must withdraw from Jinshan in the shortest time."

"The Japanese are coming with great force and strong troops. If I were their commander, I would definitely distribute some of the troops to block the mountain pass, trap us in Jinshan, and then go into the mountain to destroy us."

Tang Yufeng is worthy of being an old Red Army who has served as a deputy instructor. His guerrilla experience is not inferior to Zhou Cheng at all, and he is very cautious in fighting.

Ten soldiers from the second platoon and fourth squads were scattered and ambushed on both sides of the mountain road, more than 100 meters away from the Japanese. The gunshots of the squad leader were the prevailing. At the same time, they shot at the Japanese vanguard troops. They retreated after firing the guns and did not stop for a second.

Ten soldiers were scattered in ten different positions and fired at the same time. No matter how powerful the Japanese army was, they could not lock their positions at the same time.

In addition, the shooting distance was twice as far away than when Zhou Cheng attacked, and when the Japanese figured out one or two targets and prepared to counterattack, the guerrillas who attacked them had already run seven or eight meters away.

Mountains are different from flat lands.

On the flat ground, a distance of seven or eight meters is like not running. A grenade hits it, and the flying fragments will not encounter any obstacles, and it will easily damage the target.

The mountains are rugged, covered with stones, bushes, and tree trunks...

If the flying fragments fly five or six meters, they will be blocked by obstacles and lose their lethality.

So if the soldiers ran seven or eight meters in the mountains, they would be almost safe.

Of course, such sneak attacks are not something you can do everywhere.

All sneak attack sites selected by Tang Yufeng are undoubtedly high in mountains and dense forests, with rugged terrain, which is very suitable for transfer.

From the Japanese and puppet troops entering the mountain to the first blocking position, Tang Yufeng, a mountain road of more than 1,000 meters, only three sneak attack sites were found.

Because the road across the mountain is too far, the soldiers' shooting accuracy is not satisfactory.

Ten rifles are shot at the same time. If you are lucky, you can hit one or two Japanese soldiers. If you are unlucky, you can't hit one or two Japanese soldiers.

The three sneak attacks used up a total of thirty bullets, killing only three Japanese devils.

If such losses and results are placed in the main force, the commander of the team will definitely be scolded to death, and the superiors will immediately stop this kind of ammunition waste.

That is, the guerrillas had sufficient ammunition, and before the war, each soldier had 50 bullets to withstand this consumption.

Even so, Tang Yufeng felt heartbroken when he saw it.

On the mountain road, Major Fujita's face looked very bad.

Until now, the troops entered the mountain, only gunshots were heard and no one was seen. The vanguard troops also lost three imperial troops.

Major Fujita has only seen such a method in the main force of the Eighth Route Army. He did not expect that a fledgling guerrilla team in the pacification territory could actually fight guerrilla warfare so quickly.

This bad beginning gave him a deeper understanding of the Donghui Town guerrillas and slowly put away the contempt in his mind.

Captain Fukuda was still guilty and wanted to use this battle to regain his bad impression in the captain's heart.

Suddenly he ran to Major Fujita and pointed to the ridge that was looming in front of him and introduced: "Sir, there is the first line of defense of the guerrillas in front of him!"

"The guerrillas built the position on the top of the beam, not only did they have individual bunkers reinforced by logs and stones, but also hid several machine gun castles."

"The grenade fired by the grenade launcher has no lethality when hitting it."

"Last time on the attack, the Eighth Route Army hid two machine guns in the castle and suddenly shot at the offensive troops. Our grenade launcher could not hit them, so we could only be beaten passively, and as a whole reinforcement team was lost here."

Major Fujita immediately raised his telescope.

The more I looked, the more I felt. With the help of the telescope, the beam top was clearly visible, but I did not find the blocking position in Futian's mouth.

If Fukuda hadn't reminded him, the vanguard troops would have been unprepared to rush up and then suffer a big loss.

When he put down the telescope, his expression had become unprecedentedly serious, and he was murderously ordered: "The vanguard troops stopped moving forward after reaching the foot of the mountain."

"The artillery and heavy machine gun troops have all set up my weapons and prepare for the vanguard troops to attack the beam in the future."

"If there are still Eighth Route Army hidden on the top of the beam, whether it is hiding in individual bunkers or machine gun castles, they will be bombarded with mortars and blown them into minced meat."

Tang Yufeng hid behind a shooting hole, condescending to see all the Japanese and puppet troops.

Seeing the vanguard troops suddenly stopped after reaching the foot of the mountain, a hint of disappointment flashed out of their faces.

The blocking position under his feet is so good. As long as the vanguard troops are unprepared to rush to the top of the beam, Zhou Yufeng is confident that he will kill half of their troops in a round of firepower.

But the Japanese and puppet troops did not intend to give him this opportunity.

At this moment, the artillery and heavy machine gun troops entered their field of view.

Dozens of Japanese soldiers rushed to a small high ground seventy or eighty meters away from the foot of the mountain with mortars, and skillfully assembled mortars.

Dozens of Japanese soldiers ran to the foot of the mountain with heavy machine guns, looking for a suitable position to set up guns, and acted like a strong attack on the top of the beam.
