Chapter 223 Line of Defense
No one expected that the Japanese, who was almost at the end of their strength, could still exert such strong combat power.
Zhang Yunfei, who withdrew from the battle, obviously would not be in a good mood. He was planning how to fight next and guess what the Japanese should do next.
Now they are very dissatisfied with the battle situation, and the Japanese are probably also dissatisfied. Now there are only three reactions.
First, rely on the village to defend; second, retreat, this should be the safest plan; third, fight directly and defeat them, the frontal enemy.
Judging from the situation now, they have been entangled for so long, and the firepower and combat power between the two sides have almost been leveled. It is hard to say who will make a profit and who will lose in the end.
However, with the Japanese's urinary nature, the most likely order they choose should be three, two, one.
Zhang Yunfei could only think of these three possibilities, but it is really hard to judge which Japanese devils will choose, the most unlikely one. After all, this group of devils is fighting across borders and lacks communication with the local garrison, so the possibility of sticking to them is the lowest.
As for whether to continue attacking or retreating, it is difficult to judge. No matter how arrogant the Japanese commander is, he should be awake to this situation until the war is over.
In contrast, it would be even more troublesome if the Japanese chose the third one and chose to continue attacking. Once this happens, although they can retreat at any time, it is not so easy to retreat. If you refer to Qi Dajiu's squadron, even if you lose the ones you lost, you will lose at least one-third of them in the pursuit of the Japanese.
Once they choose to retreat, it will be useless to have such a big battle with the Japanese in the early stage, but it is still unknown who will win if they fight the Japanese in the bloody battle. Anyway, both sides will suffer losses.
Reinforcements, reinforcements, now he has suffered another loss from reinforcements. The key is that he has no cards in his hands, otherwise it would be easy for the Japanese to kill them.
After such trouble, the Japanese also suffered more than a dozen casualties. In fact, both sides were a bit over the last one, and it depends on who collapsed first.
The Japanese Chief Cao stood behind the wall in the village, looking at the defensive positions reorganized by the Eighth Route Army. He still had a headache. The Eighth Route Army was not large in number and had poor combat power, but now he was sticking to them like a candy.
Now their team has more than half of their casualties. Although the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side is not strong, they also do not have the ability to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.
Unfortunately, they were alone and had no reinforcements at all. Defense was meaningless, and as time went by, the Eighth Route Army would only gather more and more.
In the eyes of the Japanese Chief Cao, the local armed forces, were just a group of mobs. If they were to come, they would not take them seriously.
But in this situation, their combat power has dropped to the lowest point. As the saying goes, many ants bite the elephant to death. Now they are likely to be overwhelmed by the number of people used by the other party.
Then retreat is the only choice, but unfortunately there is also a problem with retreat. They have been marching for dozens of kilometers and are exhausted. Once they retreat, these eighth Route Army members will follow like wolves.
By then, they will not have the strength to get rid of each other, and they may be swallowed up by these eighth-way teams bit by bit [Update Fast], and they will eventually be unable to escape the fate of destruction.
It is said that there are three choices, but in fact, in the view of the Japanese President Cao Chang, they have no choice.
He had to hate the dead team leader. He was so fucking crazy about credit. There was only one Eighth Route Army with a size of about one team, which was worthy of fighting and pursuing.
Now, I haven't made any credit, and I've been killed by the black gun from the Eighth Route Army. If you die, die. I've also brought the entire team into a trap and fell into a crisis.
When the Japanese Chief Cao cursed the team leader who had already died in battle, he completely ignored that he also agreed to chase after death and wanted to kill the Eighth Route Army.
The devil Cao Chang finally got angry and had no choice. Since these eighth gangs of local ranks are forcing themselves to fight, then fight. Not to mention that these eighth gangs are only a little more than one side, even if they are several times more, they can still repair the other side. The Imperial Army has never been afraid of anyone.
The two previous battles have shown that although this group of Eighth Route Army members is still good, they are still not as good as themselves. The reason why they do not retreat and run is that they want to take the opportunity to raid themselves.
Just like those wolves staring at their prey quietly, Cao Chang was angry when he thought of this Japanese devil, when would their dignified imperial army become prey in the eyes of others?
Since these eighth gangs did not intend to let them go and not let them escape, uh, they are retreating, so what else can hesitate to kill the other party?
Chief Cao of the Japanese divided the team into three teams, one team as a spearhead, the other two teams were separated from both wings, and the two teams behind each carried a machine gun.
Originally, the Japanese had three machine guns, one of which was the one that was taken by Zhang Yunfei, but unfortunately they were lost in the narrow alley. Although they returned to the Japanese, they were also blown up.
Half of the Japanese troops were in a triangle and advanced westward. When the war reached this level, there was nothing to be void. The Japanese came directly to the position they temporarily built.
Now it is clear that the carriages and horses are not giving in to each other, it depends on who will kill who in the end.
Looking at the Japanese attacking and killing the triangular formation, Zhang Yunfei was nervous for no reason. The Japanese had few troops, only twenty or thirty people, but Zhang Yunfei was just unsure.
Originally, I only had more than twenty veterans, but unfortunately, four or five were sacrificed in the two battles in the first two battles, especially in the street battles. Now I have severely insufficient veterans.
Although he still has an advantage in military strength, he has no idea how strong these young militias can exert their combat power.
Qi Dajiu was rushed to guard the flank again by him, but this time he did not complain.
In the street battle, their squadron lost the position the fastest and suffered the most casualties. Now he even lowered his voice.
Most of the people in their hands are young and strong militia. If they are not panic in their hearts at this time, they will be devilish.
When the most cutting-edge Japanese enter the war zone.
The two machine guns on both sides of the Japanese immediately spit out flames to provide cover for their infantry to advance. The Japanese had grenade launchers, but unfortunately their grenades had been exhausted.
Although the current attack is less threat from grenade launchers, their defense is a bit stretched when facing the Japanese rushing through the middle and surrounded by two wings.
The disadvantages of militia are now revealed, and most of them know how to shoot. They have never had the chance to shoot before. In the previous two battles, they finally got the chance to shoot.
But firing a gun does not mean that their marksmanship is accurate. The marksmanship requires years of training to achieve results. A young and strong militia like them who drives ducks and puts them on the shelves and temporarily goes to the battlefield, and it is not realistic to get a sharpshooter by touching two guns. Therefore, although they are many people, it is still very difficult to hit the Japanese.bdshare();
