Chapter 485: Chasing Troops Approaching
The fifth company concentrated the automatic weapons of the entire company, and when it was launched, it was full of fire. Assault was like a storm, bullets and grenades overwhelmingly. This combat mode brought the Japanese not only shock, but also panic that was caught off guard, as well as the abnormality of military command and actual combat power.
The continuous firepower harvested the lives of Japanese soldiers.
With screams and as one body fell down, the Japanese army's fighting will also quickly weakened for an extremely short period of time until it collapsed quickly.
This was an unconventional battle. The Japanese army, who took advantage of the victory, occupied the commanding heights in the face of the weak enemy, and wanted to block the return of the defeated troops to retreat westward. Although they sent secret whistles, they still underestimated the enemy from the situation of building fortifications and guarding before meals. For enemies with absolute advantage in military strength and favorable terrain, Yang An chose to attack with weak battles and attack with strong attacks, just to use the cover of thick fog to win with strange results. Of course, all of this is a gamble, whether it is victory or defeat. Luck is very mysterious.
Wonderful, this battle is more reflected in a fleeting fighter. That is, the deputy platoon leader of the battalion headquarters, Zhan Debao, succeeded in attacking the scepter and completed the preliminary reconnaissance. This means that the Japanese army that came to victory had a weak point in defense. And Yang An happened to decisively seized all the favorable factors in this battle, whether it was the drifting thick fog, the concentrated use of grenades and automatic continuous weapons, the reverse use of Japanese ring machine gun fortifications, or the assault charge at any cost, all the favorable factors were played to the extreme in this very short-term assault battle.
In an extremely short period of time, Yang An led the team to charge and the shooting of heavy machine guns in the ring fortifications became the last straw that broke the Japanese army.
As the fifth company charged and dropped bombs, shouted and exploded, the momentum was destroyed, defeating the fighting will of Japanese officers and soldiers in one fell swoop.
In the unclear situation, the Japanese army looked at the enemy that continued to rush out of the thick fog, worried about the unknown enemy coming in the thick fog. Some of the Japanese army held on resistance with the orders of the officers, and some retreated. However, the enemy who left behind to resist was almost at a loss in the face of a powerful offensive. Soon, all the Japanese army dispersed towards the thick fog and the top of the mountain on the east slope of the hill.
Before the war, Yang An made several deductions in his heart, but he did not expect the raid to be so smooth.
Seeing the dispersed Japanese, he knew the reason why the defeated enemy did not pursue him, and quickly shouted loudly: "Stop chasing and clean up the battlefield!"
With a command, the fifth company added a gun to the Japanese army on the ground and the final shot.
"Bow, BOOM", two gunshots rang out closely, and the recruit Su Wenxiu's body slowly fell backwards.
The second shot was fired by a wealthy fan. He found that a Japanese devil was "resurrected" and fired, so he fired, but he was still one step late.
The Japanese bullets shot out from Su Wenxiu's head, and Qin Weihua's back was dyed red by the blood and flesh that ejected from it.
If this Japanese recruit shot Su Wenxiu's chest, then Qin Weihua would be injured or killed.
Looking at Su Wenxiu who was a few months older than him, Yang An was extremely sad and regretful. He did not expect that this excellent shooter, even if he became a prisoner of the Japanese army, would still persist until the end of escape. He could have followed the large army to retreat first, but he resolutely chose to stay in the fifth company.
Ding Xiaozheng and Su Wenxiu are both from Lai Ziming's row. The two were captured in Xuejiashu together, and then fled from the Japanese temporary prisoner-of-war camp together. This experience of sharing life and death made them a friend of life and death.
Seeing Su Wenxiu being shot and falling to the ground with miserable appearance, Ding Xiaozheng dropped the machine gun, flew over, hugged Su Wenxiu and burst into tears.
"Chen Mingde, put him on his back!"
"No, company commander! It's too late!" Qin Weihua stepped forward and found that Su Wenxiu had no breathing or heartbeat. He gritted his teeth and said, pausing slightly and sighed: "Oh! Buried on the spot, hurry!"
After that, the platoons carried their sacrificed comrades into the trench excavated by the Japanese army and buried them in a hurry according to Qin Weihua's order.
In this battle, the fifth company sacrificed another nine people and injured ten people slightly.
Cao Yougen looked at the battalion squad 1 searching and moving forward in the fog downhill direction, and turned around and looked at Lu Wensheng, and was stunned for a moment.
"Squad Leader! Squad Leader--!" Kong Xiaozhuang shouted as he shook the squad Leader.
Lu Wensheng seemed to be dreaming, unable to believe that he was still alive. He sat up from the ground and muttered absent-mindedly: "Am I still alive?"
"Yes, squad leader, you are still alive, you are alive!"
"Yes, I'm still alive!" Lu Wensheng returned to Qingming Festival. He immediately looked at his chest and was stunned.
Cao Yougen also woke up from the shock and cursed: "Fatty, it's okay, get up for me! Today, the company commander saved your life, so remember it in your heart!"
It turned out that the bullet hit the solid hilt of the kitchen knife hanging on Lu Wenxiu's chest. The bullet bloomed on the hilt and left a dent on the hilt. Except for the huge impact force, the chest was nothing. Without this kitchen knife, the bullet would definitely penetrate his chest.
Lu Wenxiu saved her life and got up happily, regardless of Uncle Gen and Kong Xiaozhuang in front of her, and she followed the battalion commander and others and disappeared into the thick fog.
According to Yang An's order, the Fifth Company collected a batch of grenades and 38th large-capped rifle bullets, blew up the Japanese heavy machine guns, and quickly evacuated.
An hour later, the back team of the fifth company discovered that the number of Japanese troops chasing was around 30.
After receiving a report from the third squad leader Luo Changshun, Lin Zhentang looked at Yang An inquiringly. Yang An said understandably: "Battery Commander, why don't you look at it again."
"Okay, Squad Leader Luo, pay attention to the situation of the Japanese army. If you find any abnormalities, report them quickly!" Lin Zhentang said to Luo Changshun.
"Yes!" Luo Changshun replied. As soon as he finished speaking, he stopped and waited for the back team to come.
"It seems that we must speed up the marching and see if we can get rid of this little Japanese." Lin Zhentang continued to say to Yang An.
"Battery Commander, the Japanese are not many, I'm afraid they can't get rid of them."
"Then see if there is any favorable terrain ahead and knock them out."
Hearing this, Yang An did not say anything. Seeing that Yang An ignored him, Lin Zhentang stopped talking, but just accelerated his pace, and the team also accelerated his pace of marching.
Half an hour later, Luo Changshun's third squad stopped on a mound. After a while, he accelerated to catch up with the front team to report, and another group of Japanese troops came chasing him, with the number of two batches not less than one hundred.
After hearing the report, Lin Zhentang and Yang An became heavy.
Lin Zhentang ran and gasped and guessed: "I think it was just that little Japanese. They fought a war with them and they had made a death grudge. They wanted to take revenge!"
"Maybe?" Yang An said, ran a few more steps and asked, "Battery Commander, what should I do?"
"I just ran past a mound, and it was a good place. The next place like this, beat him and his family."
Yang An frowned and said, "Battalion Commander, the Japanese can't swallow this. They just want to take revenge. The soldiers will win. They have an advantage in their troops. If they can, don't fight. If the Japanese want to chase them, we will race with him. If we meet our national army in front, we will eat them!"
Yang An believes that the more you retreat to the west, the more national troops should be. If this Japanese devil goes deeper, it is a search for death. As long as you can keep a distance from the Japanese devils and prevent them from catching up, you will eventually win.
Lin Zhentang understood what Yang An mean and replied: "Okay, then we will have a race with them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zhentang turned around and shouted, "Brothers, the Japanese are catching up! The more they run, the closer they are to the brothers' troops, and my fifth company will run against the Japanese. Do you have any confidence?"
"Yes!" The brothers of the fifth company shouted in unison, and the voice spread thousands of miles away.
The fifth company accelerated its pace, but in less than five minutes, some new recruits and wounded soldiers could not keep up, and the team had to slow down.
In this way, the Japanese vanguard team followed him like a shadow, always maintaining a visible distance with the fifth company, and the fifth company never escaped the Japanese's vision.
At noon, the fifth company, which had been marching for several hours, slowed down again.
Looking at this situation, Lin Zhentang said: "It seems that a war must be fought! Yang An, if you can't run, just fight him!"
"Battery Commander, how to fight the terrain here?" Yang An asked back.
Lin Zhentang also knew that it was not the time, so he fell into silence again.
Feeling the silence of the battalion commander, Yang An was also wondering whether he had made an incorrect decision before. Thinking that after the battle in the morning, he missed the opportunity to attack the enemy because he wanted to preserve his strength and avoid the battle, Yang An felt a sense of indelible self-blame in his heart.
