There was a loud bang. The puppet soldiers leading the team this time were not as shrewd and cautious as Lao Yanqiang, and they accidentally tripped the booby trap that Cao Zheng had finally set at the exit of the bush and thorny path.
Yamamoto Kazuki, who finally led the team out, looked gloomy.
At this moment, gunfire suddenly came from not far away. Yamamoto looked up and saw that it seemed to be the gentle slope not far away.
The Japanese captain, the squadron leader, said quickly, "Your Majesty Colonel, the gunfire came from the direction of the gentle slope. Don't worry, Colonel. I have arranged the firepower deployment there in advance, and I should have stopped the eight escapees at the bottom of the gentle slope.
, we are now supporting the past, attacking from the front and back, and we will definitely be able to eliminate these hateful Eight Routes in one fell swoop."
Yamamoto nodded and immediately led the team to set off towards the gentle slope for reinforcements.
Soon, a group of Japanese soldiers arrived, but a few minutes ago, the gunfire stopped completely.
The Japanese captain opened his mouth several times, but after thinking about it, how many imperial warriors were killed by the Eighth Route Army that broke out along the way!
Out of caution, he was too embarrassed to speak, saying that he had arranged an ambush team to eliminate this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers.
When they arrived at the place, the Japanese were stunned.
Not a single shadow of the enemy was seen at all below the gentle slope. I could only see some craters more than 20 meters away from the gentle slope.
The originally beautiful tactical idea of attacking from both front and back was completely ruined.
The entire gentle slope became quiet, as if there was no one around.
Yamamoto frowned, and the Japanese squadron leader quickly arranged for two Japanese soldiers and ordered them to explore the situation through the gentle slope in advance.
Behind the gentle slope, on a thick tree a hundred meters away, the leafy canopy concealed the figure of a commando.
The commando immediately saw the Japanese approaching the gentle slope through the gaps in the branches and leaves.
The other side of the tree was originally shady, and the branches and leaves were much sparser. The commando had previously treated it with a bayonet to facilitate the vision to reach Kong Jie.
The team members immediately made a gesture and conveyed the message of the Japanese's arrival.
"Coming!" Kong Jie shouted.
The soldiers immediately entered the final preparation state.
On the other side, two Japanese sentries approached the steep slope quickly with some vigilance, followed the gentle slope, and climbed over some trees and vines on the gentle slope.
As a result, just as they emerged, two gunshots rang out almost at the same time. The two Japs were headshot on the spot and rolled down the gentle slope to their deaths.
The commando sentry who had previously served as a forward observation post in the tree had already passed on the information about the Japs. The two raised fingers represented two Japs. Their hands were swimming forward, which meant they were gradually approaching.<
/p>
Ye Min and Wang Xikui were the ones who shot just now, and each of them was responsible for a Japanese.
At the bottom of the gentle slope, the team that was waiting for two Japanese sentries to investigate the situation suddenly broke out into a commotion.
The situation is now very clear. The Japanese captain's ambush firepower, which he originally thought was safe, has long been knocked out by the Eighth Route Army. Now the Eighth Route Army has taken advantage of this gentle slope and blocked the place with firepower.
Not only that, judging from the level of the two shots just now.
There are sharpshooters with excellent marksmanship in the Eighth Route Army.
"Sniper!"
Next to Yamamoto, the leader of a combat group of the commando team couldn't help but speak, his face slightly changed.
The surrounding puppet troops were even more frightened.
The Eighth Route Army's firepower blocked this gentle slope. Now this gentle slope is like hell. Whoever climbs on it will die.
They even prayed in their hearts that this damn little devil would never think of letting their Imperial Army soldiers go up and serve as cannon fodder.
Fortunately, the Japanese squadron leader had no intention of wasting time, and immediately sent a small team to prepare to rush over the gentle slope.
Yamamoto has not figured out the details and methods of his opponent yet, so he is watching indifferently for the time being.
The Japanese squad quickly approached the bottom of the slope, and the news naturally reached Kong Jie's eyes immediately.
The howitzer said: "Captain, a small group of Japanese is approaching the gentle slope and will soon be within the range of the grenade. Should we take the opportunity to sneak attack on him with two cannons and cripple this small group of Japanese first?"<
/p>
Kong Jie shook his head, "Don't expose the grenade firepower for the time being. The Japs have a lot of troops. The team in front of us is just to test our reality. If we reveal our trump card as soon as we get started, we won't be able to fight in the future."
My son was beaten."
"Yes!" Howitzer suddenly said.
Kong Jie then ordered, "Don't expose all the firepower of the machine guns for the time being. Only the two in the middle are exposed. The terrain of this gentle slope is strange. If you want to come up, the little devil can only touch it row by row. The two machine guns cross fire from left to right."
Blockade is enough."
"Yes!"
After about two or three minutes of wandering, there was some movement from the other side of the gentle slope. As expected, a row of seven or eight Japanese soldiers emerged from the gentle slope first.
Of course, what awaits them is light machine gun fire that is ready to go.
The first ones to take action were Kong Jie and Monk. The two men wielded light machine guns with crooked targets and fired a round of fire. Seven or eight Japanese were knocked down directly and rolled down the gentle slope, killing those behind who were climbing up at the same time.
The Japanese were also knocked down.
The Japs behind were not afraid of death, and continued to rush towards the gentle slope several times. But as soon as they were exposed, they were suppressed again by Kong Jie and Monk with machine gun fire, which only caused more casualties.
The Japanese team leader who was responsible for the exploratory attack saw the enemy's fierce firepower and the gentle slope was too narrow to deploy his troops, so he quickly issued an order to retreat.
Rear area.
The puppet soldiers were stunned, while the Japanese looked ugly.
The Japanese Captain asked for instructions: "Your Excellency, the enemy's fire has blocked the gentle slope. Continuing to charge will only cause greater casualties. Judging from the gunshots just now, the enemy has two machine guns. As for whether more firepower is hidden, it is temporarily unknown.
OK."
"I suggest using direct fire to attack the enemy's machine gun fire points and cover the infantry to continue charging on the gentle slope."
Yamamoto nodded, this is the most feasible method at the moment.
After thinking for a while, Yamamoto added: "The enemy is blocking here. They obviously want to use this gentle slope to stop us. They seem to be deliberately delaying time."
"Although this gentle slope is narrow, the two sides can be detoured. However, the target should not be too large, otherwise it will be easily exposed."
"In this way, you follow the original plan and cover the infantry charge with artillery coverage. I will lead the special agent team to detour from the left and right wings and cooperate with your main force to attack the enemy!"
"Hi! Don't worry, Colonel, I will lead the main force to cover your flank assault plan." The Japanese Captain quickly responded, this is indeed a good idea.
The two sides cooperated quickly. Yamamoto divided the dozen or so people from the first team of the special agent team that he had brought out in a hurry into two combat groups. They carried out detours from the left and right wings in an attempt to take advantage of the enemy's unawareness.
Flanking the opponent.
This is Kazuki Yamamoto's specialty.
As for the Japanese squadron, after Kazuki Yamamoto took the lead, the Japanese captain immediately ordered the main force of the squadron to quickly approach the gentle slope, and then prepared to build a grenade position behind the gentle slope to cover the infantry charge with covering artillery fire.
After the news reached Kong Jie again, Kong Jie smiled.
"Howitzer, the opportunity you have been waiting for has come!"
"Okay!" The howitzer was overjoyed, his eyes gleaming. He had previously killed the Japanese in an ambush, but had captured a lot of grenadier shells, which he could use to deal with the Japanese...
