Chapter five hundred and fifty third mine ambush battle
Chapter 553 Mine Ambush War
"Comrade Liu Xiaogang, this matter is related to the lives of nearly a thousand officers and soldiers, you must be cautious..." Faced with Liu Xiaogang's confident answer, Yang Jingyu asked again with a cautious look...
"Commander, what I just said is absolutely not exaggerated. The First Brigade of the advance detachment will ensure that it can complete its mission and get out of the enemy's encirclement. Deputy Commander, please rest assured..." Liu Xiaogang replied firmly...
"Okay, Lao Yang, since Comrade Liu Xiaogang has issued a military order to us, then we believe him. The communications staff immediately recorded the order: The third brigade of the advance detachment, with the help of mines, must do everything possible to stop the Japanese army.
The vanguard unit will have at least one day. At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, it will withdraw from the battlefield... The Anti-Japanese Alliance, the second brigade of the advance detachment will immediately join the material transport army and rush to transport various supplies in the county... At eight o'clock tomorrow morning
Previously, all personnel had to withdraw from the county and return to the Mengshan base area to replenish ammunition and prepare for battle... The first brigade of the advance detachment, under the personal command of Comrade Liu Xiaogang, was responsible for staying in the county and annihilating the Japanese vanguard unit.
Attract the main force of the Japanese army and encircle Baishan County... Lao Yang, do you have anything to add..." Liu Hua turned to look at the deputy commander beside him...
"One more thing, during the process of transferring supplies, all units must pay attention to air defense issues. It's dawn, and if nothing goes wrong, it's time for the Japs' planes to be dispatched..." Yang Jingyu said...
"Lao Yang, your reminder is very good. We must not forget that in the Northeast, the entire air supremacy is in the hands of the little devils. In addition, tell Captain Wang Ping to let him control the county seat during the rush to transport supplies.
All the trucks seized inside will be used. At the same time, we will also use the method of bombing the Japanese planes when we were transporting houses in Tianjin... We will try to complete the transport of all these materials in one day and one night...
." Liu Hua nodded and said...
"Captain, the commander telegraphed that there is a new combat mission..." Outside Baishan County, on a mountain ridge almost ten kilometers away from the county seat, inside the temporary headquarters of the Third Brigade. A communications soldier held a letter he had just received.
The telegram came to the captain Li Guodong and said anxiously...
"Haha, comrades, we have been waiting here for such a long time, and finally we have something to do... The commander ordered that troops from an infantry regiment of the Japanese army, riding in trucks, were rushing towards us quickly. The commander asked us to
The Third Brigade, use all available conditions to block the Japanese infantry company for at least one day." After reading the telegram in his hand, Li Guodong said to the squadron leaders around him with a look of surprise...
"Captain, it's finally our third brigade's turn to take action... The little devils are an infantry regiment. Haha, I started to drool just thinking about it... Captain, how should we fight? Just give the order...?" Li Guodong just said this.
After saying that, the faces of several squadron leaders showed expressions of eagerness to try...
After all, since the advance detachment went on the expedition, the most prominent battles were basically completed by the First Brigade. This made the officers and soldiers of the Second and Third Brigades, especially the commanders, feel particularly uncomfortable.
Thinking of fighting for it...
"Don't worry, how to fight, the commander has already thought of it for us... Today, we will prepare a sumptuous mine feast for the little devils, let them taste the mines they made... Wang
Captain, you immediately send a small team of soldiers to deal with the landmines sent to us by the second team..." Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Li Guodong ordered...
"Yes, captain, I will personally take people there and I will definitely bring back all the mines that are used to attract the little devils..." As he spoke, the captain of the first squadron hurriedly ran out...
"Captain Li, your reconnaissance squadron will immediately send out several scouts, mount war horses, and take a shortcut. You must find out for me the specific marching sequence of the infantry regiment of the Little Devils in the shortest possible time..."
"Yes, Captain, I'll go make arrangements right away..." As he spoke, the captain of the reconnaissance squadron named by Li Guodong rushed out of the temporary headquarters to make arrangements for the troops...
"The remaining people, rest where they are and replenish their strength... When the investigators come back, we will start to clean up these little devils... let them know how powerful our third brigade is..." the captain finally ordered...
A few hours passed quickly. Just as captain Li Guodong was standing at the intersection, waiting anxiously, a crisp sound of horse hooves finally reached the ears of several people. Immediately afterwards, several cavalry soldiers
He quickly came to him, saluted, and then said...
"Captain, we have investigated clearly. An infantry company of the Little Devils did not carry any heavy artillery. They rode nearly 200 trucks and drove over here quickly. According to the marching speed of the Japanese army, it will take at most two hours.
The vanguard, an infantry squadron, can reach here..." a squad leader of the reconnaissance squadron of the brigade reported...
"Is there anything else?" Li Guodong nodded and continued to ask...
"According to reconnaissance, the Japanese avant-garde squadron rides on a total of 10 large trucks, about one kilometer away from the main force. In addition, after rough measurements, the distance between each Japanese truck is about ten meters...because of the enemy's marching speed
Very quickly, there is only so much we can detect..." the team leader continued to answer...
"Okay, then let's eat his avant-garde squadron first... Captain Wang, have you recovered all the mines that the commander came to support?" Li Guodong said with a confident look on his face with a sneer on his face...
"Captain, we have brought them all back, two large trucks and two thousand landmines, enough for these more than three thousand little devils to drink a pot..." The captain of the first squadron quickly stepped forward and replied...
"In this case, I will hand over the first battle to your No. 1 Squadron... Now I order you to bring your No. 1 Squadron, bring fifty mines, and use the directional blasting method given to us by the special operations team.
...separated from each other at a distance of fifteen meters, and prepare ten explosion points on the path that the Japs must pass. Prepare two mines for the Japs at each explosion point... Wait until the ten trucks of the Japs' vanguard enter the preset position
, detonate them immediately... As for the remaining mines, they are buried in the grass on both sides of the road, specifically to deal with the Japanese infantry... Remember, after the avant-garde squadron is eliminated, the troops should not stop at any time and retreat immediately..." Li Guodong then immediately
commanded…
"Captain, all good things have happened to the First Squadron. As for our squadrons, you have to keep a bowl of water... We have several squadrons, but we have rested for several hours, and it is time to go to the battlefield, otherwise
, the soldiers will all be choked up..." Seeing the excited look on the face of the captain of the first squadron who followed the order, the remaining squadron captains couldn't help but feel jealous and said quickly...
"Don't worry, there are more than 3,000 little devils, everyone has a share... Order the troops to retreat one kilometer immediately, and use the same method to lay mines on the path that the little devils must pass... Today, our third brigade will...
Use these two thousand landmines to deal with these little devils..." Li Guodong said confidently...
"Comrades, hurry up and be quick. The Japs are coming soon..." "Comrades, please look carefully. This is our first squadron's first time fighting alone. We must complete the mission smoothly.
, Annihilate the Japs' avant-garde squadron..." On the road that the Japs must pass by, nearly a hundred soldiers are laying landmines in full swing on both sides of the road. As for the squadron leader, he shuttles back and forth among the soldiers to cheer him up...
Finally, dozens of minutes passed in a hurry. Under the command of the squadron leader, all fifty landmines were buried at the predetermined location... The smoke and dust that had just been rolled up on the entire highway also increased with time.
The passage slowly dissipated... Under the command of the squadron leader, more than two hundred soldiers hid in the grass on both sides of the road in the shortest possible time, holding up the weapons in their hands, waiting quietly
The arrival of the little devil...
"Rumble..." Finally, a huge roar of cars slowly reached everyone's ears from far away. Raising the binoculars in their hands, ten large trucks filled with little Japanese infantry appeared in a row.
Inside squadron leader Wang Youzhi's telescope...
"The little Japs are finally here. Notify the soldiers to prepare for battle. Demolitionists, no explosions are allowed without my order..." Seeing the arrogant little Japs in the truck compartment, Captain Wang Youzhi's lips immediately turned into anger.
Lu gave a hint of a sneer and whispered an order to the soldiers around him...
In an instant, the entire First Squadron, more than two hundred soldiers, held their breath at the same time, pointing the black muzzles of their guns at the Japanese soldiers who were getting closer and closer to them... As for the ten vehicles, they roared.
The loud trucks also drove into the ambush positions carefully prepared by the soldiers one after another...
"Demolition..." Just as the first Japanese truck hit the first blasting point, an order came out from the mouth of captain Wang Youzhi... The demolition crew lying next to Wang Youzhi did not
If there was any hesitation, he immediately pressed the detonator in his hand with his right hand, which was already full of sweat due to nervousness...
"Boom, boom, boom..." A loud explosion broke the tranquility of the entire battlefield... The ten large trucks that had just made a huge roar were immediately enveloped in the smoke and fireballs generated by the explosion of dozens of landmines...
"Da da da... bang bang bang..." At the moment when the landmine exploded, more than two hundred soldiers ambushing on both sides of the road also immediately activated the weapons in their hands and rained down the aircraft.
Bullets were fired into the carriages of ten trucks, killing and injuring all the Japanese soldiers in front of him...
Suddenly, intensive gunfire and the explosion of grenades began to sound on the battlefield, interweaving a beautiful music. Of course, at this moment, the more than a hundred little Japs who were ambushed were at the end of their military careers.
time…
Just amidst the explosions of landmines, four trucks were directly overturned to the ground by the huge shock wave generated by the mine explosion... The final result was no surprise. Sixty people carried in the four truck compartments
Many Japanese soldiers were beaten to pieces or lost their combat effectiveness before they had time to react...
Immediately after... a rain of bullets and grenades once again caught the remaining soldiers off guard... Just when the remaining little Japanese reacted from the initial shock and prepared to counterattack with the help of the carriage. An infantry squadron,
More than 180 Japanese soldiers, at this moment, only less than one-third of the strength is left...
"Baga... The enemy is extremely cunning. The troops immediately launched a counterattack and resolutely blocked the enemy's attack. The reinforcements of Your Excellency, the commander of the company, will arrive soon. Kill them..." Under the protection of the guards, the truck's passenger compartment
The squadron leader who escaped quickly drew out his command knife and gave the order to the remaining soldiers to stand firm and wait for reinforcements...
Under the command of the squadron leader, more than sixty Japanese soldiers, under the organization of their respective sergeants and squad leaders, jumped out of the truck, rushed to the grass on both sides of the road, and began to carry out an orderly counterattack...
However, what made them moved and disappointed was that just when the remaining sixty or so Japanese soldiers had just rushed into the thick grass and had not had time to feel lucky to have survived, there were explosions one after another, and then another.
Once they were thrown high into the sky, and then turned into soft corpses...
It turned out that just before the battle started, the soldiers had already placed more than 20 remaining landmines and a large number of grenades on both sides of the road, in all hidden spots suitable for hiding and shooting... And more than 60 little Japs rushed in.
Going to the grass that they think is safe is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth...
As explosions sounded on both sides of the road one after another, after two consecutive attacks, the remaining more than 60 Japanese soldiers once again lost two-thirds of their strength... As for the remaining 20 or so Japanese soldiers,
, it was the squadron leader who was protecting him, lying on the road, making his last stand...
"Comrades, prepare the grenades... to kill these little Japs... throw them..." As a roar sounded on the battlefield... nearly a hundred grenades fell on the road like rain... more than twenty Japs soldiers,
Including their squadron leader, without exception, all their bodies were destroyed...
"Clean the battlefield immediately and prepare to retreat. Hurry, bring weapons and ammunition that are still usable, and retreat immediately..." As the last Japanese soldier fell injured and fell under the bayonets of the soldiers. He looked at the more than 100 meters long
On the highway, there were corpses of little Japanese everywhere, and ten trucks were burning with raging fire. Captain Wang Youzhi nodded with satisfaction and loudly issued the order to retreat...
"Baga... the cunning Eighth Route Army..." A few minutes later, looking at the vanguard squadron that was completely destroyed in front of him, all Captain Matsuda could do was face the sky and vent his dissatisfaction with his own curses...
"Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the situation has been clearly investigated. All 183 Imperial Army soldiers in the vanguard squadron were shattered, and almost all of them died in the mine explosion... Four of the trucks were even directly overturned by the mines..." The person responsible for investigating the situation
The Chief of Staff replied…
"Bastard, landmines. These mines must be mines manufactured by the Japanese Empire that are stockpiled in Baishan County. They must be cunning enemies who have the ability to engage in a decisive battle with the Japanese Imperial Army. They will launch a sneak attack. Bage Ya
Road... Order the engineering squadron to clear the road immediately. The troops are in urgent need of departure... We must rush to the county seat before dark to eliminate the enemies who sneak up on us..." the commander ordered with an angry look on his face...
"Hai, your Excellency, the commander of the regiment..." Ten minutes later, another Japanese infantry squadron, under the command of the commander of the regiment, Colonel Matsuda, began to advance towards Baishan County as the vanguard of the entire regiment...
Of course, this infantry squadron, with more than 200 soldiers from the second squadron of the third battalion, using the same fighting style, persisted for less than three minutes before the entire army was wiped out again. In the end, the Japanese commander was left alone
In addition to the corpses on the ground, there were only ten truck wrecks burning with raging fire...
"Bagaya Road, why is there a landmine again... Do all the brave soldiers of the Imperial Japanese Army have to die on the landmines they made, Baga..." Colonel Matsuda, the commander of the regiment, was hit by a landmine again, even though he
No matter how good-tempered he is, after losing two infantry squadrons in a row, he can't help but get angry...
"Please calm down, Captain, I humbly believe that the destruction of the two infantry squadrons was, on the one hand, due to the Eighth Route Army's large-scale use of landmines, but on the other hand, it was due to the insufficient strength of the vanguard troops. As a result, the enemy
Can completely wipe out our vanguard troops in a very short period of time..." Seeing the angry-looking commander, the chief of staff reminded him in a low voice...
"Nani, we don't have enough troops... Chief of Staff, since you think so, I wonder if you have any good solutions?" After hearing what the Chief of Staff said, Colonel Matsuda's eyes lit up and he quickly asked...
"Hi, Your Excellency, Captain of the Wing. I believe that as long as we send enough troops to serve as vanguard, even if the troops are attacked by enemy-sized mines, the troops will have enough ability to hold on until the main force of the Wing arrives. Thus, we can eliminate them in one fell swoop.
Continuously attack our enemies and avenge those broken warriors..." the chief of staff said...
"Yoshi, your proposal is very good... Now I order the first battalion captain Ye Shaozuo to lead all the remaining troops of the brigade to serve as the vanguard of the regiment... If the troops encounter an ambush again, they must resolutely delay the cunning sneak attack.
"Let's wait for the arrival of the main force of the regiment... This time, I, Matsuda, must eliminate these cunning attackers..." Colonel Matsuda nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered with a confident look on his face...
"Also, Your Excellency, Wing Commander, I believe that we will definitely succeed in this operation..." After saying that, the Chief of Staff began to issue specific combat orders...
