"It's so damn cold today... Heh... Heh..." In the western suburbs of Liao County, Liang Qiu, the reconnaissance platoon leader of the first brigade and the temporary first commander of the Jianbei Road Action Team, took a few breaths of hot air.

On hand.

"I just heard the explosion and received the telegram from the special forces. Now I am cheering up. This is the closest to Hongtu Mountain and is the place where the Japanese are most likely to go out to patrol the city." Wei Datong led the independent reconnaissance group.

The platoon also participated in this operation, but he was not the first commander. When he spoke now, he was also speaking to the soldiers of the independent regiment's reconnaissance company.

"The little Japs are scared of being beaten by us. The city gates and buildings have all been blown down. The Japs don't dare to come over to check, leaving us waiting in vain. It's time to come out now, right? Comrades, eat combat rations.

, then keep your hands warm and prepare to fight!" Yan Zhouping, leading a new regiment of reconnaissance companies, participated in this operation with Wei Datong.

"Two company commanders, our operation this time directly poked the lungs of the little Japs. How many Japs can come out of Liao County?" Liang Qiu asked.

"It's freezing cold, and the little Japs are scared to death by our beatings... If there are Japs who dare to leave the city, they will burn incense, no matter how many times they come?" Wei Datong was not sent off because the company commander was taken away by the platoon commander.

There is a psychological shadow due to fighting. In their eyes, the Ninth Detachment is special, especially the special operations team of the Ninth Detachment. Even though Liang Qiu is a platoon leader, he is a company commander who is properly placed in the main force.

Moreover, they are all scouts, and the ones they admire the most are those who are capable, and the reconnaissance platoon of the ninth detachment is those who are capable.

"According to our intelligence, the 15th Brigade of the Japs was badly beaten and has just added new recruits. Therefore, there are no more than 100 veterans in each Japs Brigade in the city," Yan Zhouping said.

"I hope, please give me more..." Liang Qiu expressed everyone's wishes, and then the entire ambush position fell silent for a while.

In the darkness, the soldiers were lying on dog-skin mats, with their rucksacks on their backs, and a modified Japanese army coat covering their bodies. It was not very cold. But their hands, which were exposed outside, felt a little cold in the cold wind.

I couldn't stand it. So, putting your hands in your arms and putting them under your armpits became the best choice. Of course, you can also put them on your thighs, as they are all in a warm place.

As the order to eat was given, the military water bottle that had been placed close to the body inside the military coat was taken out. The water was still warm.

There was a gurgling sound of water being poured, the fried noodles in the lunch box were wetted with warm water, and then a small wooden spoon stirred it a few times, and a box of combat rations came out.

After a mouthful of fried noodles and a mouthful of warm water, the soldiers suddenly felt the heat radiating from their stomachs and their bodies were no longer cold.

At the commanding heights in the darkness, the machine gunner with the machine gun, after eating and drinking, took a dry cloth and wiped the machine gun again to keep it clean. On one side, a long metal bullet chain was connected to 350

A long bar. The reason why it is so long is to ensure the continuity of firepower, and also because it is cold at this time, and the air-cooled barrel is enough to support 350 rounds of shooting without overheating.

Of course, the fact that the machine gun's rate of fire is not very fast is also a reason.

Why doesn't everyone like Min 24? One reason is that the gun is too heavy and it is difficult to move; another reason is that in such late-night ambush battles, the water in the radiator bucket is easily frozen, making the gun useless.

The way to keep it warm is to either heat the water and cover it with cotton to keep it warm, or fire a few shots at intervals to keep it warm. But no matter how you do it, it's troublesome. Moreover, it's cold and freezing, and it's hard to find a water source.

Here, they were full of food and drink, and their weapons were ready for battle again; in Liao County, a squadron of Japanese soldiers, led by squadron leader Iijimada, left the county town and headed west toward the Red Earth Mountains.

The Japs had a very difficult night because they were woken up by the explosion just as they fell asleep. Then they saw that none of the city gate buildings were missing and the gate was blown open.

In fact, they didn't even know what was going on. They only knew how to reinforce the city's defenses, set up sandbag barricades on the streets in the city, and wait for the siege to begin. Then, they waited and waited without waiting.

That's right, when the little Japs discovered that the city gates and buildings had been blown down, they judged whether it was a large force from the Eighth Route Army or a large force using heavy artillery. The Japs didn't believe that the Eighth Route Army just wanted to blow up the city gate for fun.

This is definitely the rhythm of attacking the city. Then...you wait for me to attack the city, and I wait for you to leave the city. In the end, no one is waiting for the other.

But things are different now. The explosion on the Hongtu Mountain side was too obvious, and huge flames were seen in the county seat. How could we not go out of the city to check? Hongtu Mountain is related to the safety of the two counties here.

"Hurry up, don't stop! The vanguard team, always pay attention to the mountain ridges on both sides, don't be ambushed by the guerrillas and the Eighth Route Army!" While urging the team to go on their way, Iijimada was calling to the vanguard team. Ishimada was really tired.

Then, one mile passed, then two miles passed...until we walked 5 miles of mountain road without being ambushed.

"Nani? Is it possible that the Eighth Route Army has weapons that are useless just to blow up a city gate to deter us?" Iijimada was thinking about this problem while walking in the team. In his opinion, it can be so accurate.

The artillery that hit the city gates and gate towers must have set up their artillery mounts to fire directly within a range of 2 kilometers, but they had traveled so far.

"Get ready..." About 3 kilometers away from the city gate and about 500 meters away from Iijimada and the others, Liang Qiu and the others issued an order to prepare for battle.

More than ten minutes later, the Japanese squadron came from the east on the gravel-paved mountain road. However, the vanguard team in front was walking at the front without any energy at this time, and even the last

The initial attempts to intimidate both sides by shooting at both sides gave up. At this time, they were sleepy and tired, and the Japanese recruits couldn't stand it any longer.

"Hit..." A roar in the darkness shocked the Japs and made them feel that something was not good.

Then, the semi-automatic, click-click, click-click click of the squad machine gun, and the continuous click-click click of the continuous machine gun kept tilting bullets downward from the ridges on both sides. At the same time, there were also throwing

There was the sound of a canister being fired, and then a flare with a small parachute lit up in the air, illuminating the Japs on the mountain road.

The flares illuminated the Japs, giving the ambush soldiers a clear target. At this time, the gunshots became sparse. However, the Japs' casualties increased in a straight line. After all, the shooters were all good shooters.

Cheap. After a lot of output, there were not many Japs left, and they were all shot to death on the mountain road.

Even until their death, the Japs never found out who had killed them, because everywhere they looked, nothing but darkness could be seen, just the flickering muzzle flashes.

This is what happened in Liao County, Hongtu Mountain, and some mountain roads in between.
