Chapter 498 Duan Peng: I don’t know, but the battalion commander knows (second update)
"Squeak..."
A harsh brake sound suddenly sounded on the highway, and the leading troop carrier instantly turned into a blind tiger, turning left and right on the highway, running rampant, and finally crashed into an abandoned field on the roadside.
The nineteen troop carriers behind them quickly braked and stopped one after another.
Before the kid in the car could react, a burst of machine gun fire rang out from a distance of more than a hundred meters on the right side of the road.
"The enemy is attacking... get out of the car quickly and counterattack in a hidden way..." The squad leaders and Captain Cao who were scattered everywhere... jumped out of the car and ordered...
"Pa bang bang..."
Several rifle shots sounded simultaneously.
Under the cover of machine gun fire, it seemed insignificant. In addition, the little devils were in a mess, and they were all eager to jump out of the car to hide, so not many people noticed it.
Of course, even if someone hears it, it will be difficult for them to find each other's specific location under the cover of night.
After firing one shot, the nine snipers quickly pulled the bolts of their guns and fired a second round of bullets into the car tires.
At this moment, the light machine guns hidden behind them continued to fire, attracting the attention of most of the Japs. Still, few Japs were aware of the existence of these snipers...
After firing the second shot, the nine snipers climbed out of the individual bunker at the same time, bent over, and retreated quickly under the cover of night.
Until this moment, some Japs were still jumping out of the carriage. Although the Japs who had successfully hidden on the other side of the troop carrier started shooting, their attention was entirely on the six machine guns.
Even if a small number of Japanese soldiers noticed the presence of snipers and fired at the individual bunkers where they were hiding, the nine snipers had already retreated more than ten meters away.
They all spread their legs and retreated as fast as they could...
The night provided them with the best cover. As long as the Japanese didn't fire flares, it would be difficult to detect their presence!
"boom……"
An explosion suddenly sounded in the air, and a bright white light appeared over the battlefield at the same time...
Half a minute after the gunfire sounded, the Japanese fired the first illumination bomb...
The nine snipers had already run two hundred meters away, wearing camouflage nets, and were lying motionless on the ground at the same time. No matter how hard the Japs opened their eyes, they could not be spotted.
The six light machine guns also stopped firing ten seconds ago and replaced the gunfire with a barrel of firecrackers. The machine gunner followed the half-meter-deep trench to a dozen meters away and confirmed that the Japanese firepower was still concentrated behind the machine gun positions where Tietong and the firecrackers were.
Climb out of the trench, bend over and retreat.
The moment the flare exploded, they fell to the ground wearing camouflage nets like snipers.
"Sir... we were fooled... the gunfire just now was from firecrackers, and there was Tietong there..." the second lieutenant pointed at the firecrackers still setting off more than a hundred meters away and said with an angry look on Tietong's face.
"Bagh Ya Road..." The squadron leader of the reinforcements was also very angry, as if he had been slapped, his cheeks red.
After staring at the Tietongs for a long time, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "The troops will board the train immediately and continue to move forward!"
"The soldiers on the first troop carrier dispersed to the rear troop carrier...The troops continued to set off to reinforce Pingyang Town!"
Another team leader hesitated and reminded: "Sir, there must have been enemies attacking us just now, and there were many bullets hitting the car... The enemies must not have gone far. Do you want to take a few people over to take a look!"
The squadron leader shook his head: "I know there was an enemy sneak attack on us just now... but our top priority now is to reinforce the Pingyang Town stronghold and eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army there!"
"It's not cost-effective to waste time just to eliminate a few stragglers who sneak up on us..."
"I searched again, and apart from Tietong and Firecrackers, I couldn't find anyone where the gunshots were fired... Even if we send people to kill them, we may not be able to eliminate them!"
What the second lieutenant saw was exactly the same as what the squadron leader said, but his tendency to retaliate made him feel a little unwilling, so he mustered up the courage to put forward his own ideas.
Seeing that the squadron leader had no intention of compromising, he could not think of a reason to refute, so he could only nod and accept the order: "Sir is wise... I will organize the troops to get on the train and set off immediately..."
The incendiary bomb that had just taken off fell slowly and burned up.
The squadron leader believed that the enemy only dared to carry out sneak attacks secretly and did not dare to launch attacks when he was prepared, so he did not let the artillery continue to fire incendiary bombs.
The sniper and machine gunner who were lying on the ground got up from the ground at the same time and ran forward with all their strength, fearing that they would be left here by the Japanese if they ran a step slower... As long as they ran another hundred meters, even if the Japanese discovered them, they would not be able to escape.
There was no way to target them under cover of darkness.
As soon as the Japanese squadron leader got into the passenger seat of the car, another piece of bad news rang in his ears: "Sir, the tires on the right side of the car have been blown out... Our spare tires are limited, and the car cannot continue to move forward..."
"Nani!"
The squadron leader changed his usual composure, opened the door and jumped out of the passenger seat, doing it in one go.
Seeing that the front and rear tires on the right side were all blown out, I immediately ran towards the two cars behind...
As a result, I saw five cars in a row, and all of them had tires that were blown out!
Only a small number of troop carriers in the convoy carry spare tires, so it would be good to be able to repair 30% of the punctured tires.
"Bageya Road, what a cunning Eighth Route Army, we were fooled..." The squadron leader was so angry that he clenched his fists and cursed angrily, no matter how ugly it sounded...
"They know that destroying roads cannot stop our troop carriers, so they directly destroy cars to force us to abandon our troop carriers, thereby slowing down our march!"
"Then what should we do next?" the subordinate asked anxiously.
"What can we do? It will definitely be too late to wait for the county to send spare tires. Fortunately, there are only about ten kilometers away from Pingyang Town. We can kill it by marching in more than an hour!"
"Infantry squadron, heavy machine gun squad, and mortar squad, all get off the vehicle and reinforce Pingyang Town on foot... Go faster!"
"We still have a lot of traveling to do in a while. If we lose a minute here, we can reach Pingyang Town a minute earlier!"
"The transport team and the infantry artillery team stay..."
"Replace all the tires that can still be used on four personnel carriers, take the ammunition left by the infantry artillery team with us and chase us, and try to get to Pingyang Town to join the battle before the decisive battle!"
The special forces sniper team and machine gun team did not really withdraw from the battlefield.
Stop when you leave the enemy's killing range.
Duan Peng lay on the ground, motionless and staring at the little devil on the road.
The sniper and machine gunner next to him looked confused, not knowing what they were waiting for!
It wasn't until the Japanese troops were divided and the infantry artillery team and the transportation team stayed in place to repair the vehicles that everyone showed expressions of sudden realization!
"Captain, how did you know that the Japanese would keep the infantry cannons?" A sniper asked with anticipation, eager to launch an attack now and take down the two infantry cannons.
Duan Peng shook his head: "I don't know, but the battalion commander knows!"
