Yihe meets the enemy
In the headquarters of the 1st Battalion in Gaozhuang, Battalion Commander Li Shengda was comparing the battle map in front of him and analyzing the possible breakout direction of the Japanese and puppet troops during the entire ambush battle, hoping to find any clues on the map.
Just when Li Shengda was frowning and lost in thought, Platoon Commander Wang Junde, who had gone out to conduct reconnaissance by the river, rushed in panting.
"Battal commander, instructor, something happened, something big happened. A large number of Japanese and puppet troops began to gather on the other side of our river. It seems that they are preparing to swim across the river..."
"What, the Japanese and puppet troops are preparing to swim across the river..." For a moment, both people's faces showed a look of shock. They asked in disbelief.
"Yes, battalion commander... I took a quick look and saw that the total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops gathered on the other side of the river was five to six thousand. If it weren't for swimming across the river, I wouldn't have guessed that they didn't have any
Why are so many people gathering at the hidden riverside?" Platoon Leader Wang replied with certainty.
"No, the enemy must have some conspiracy. However, no matter whether the Japanese and puppet troops on the other side are ready to swim to break through, we must be ready for battle. Instructor, pass on the order, all troops will enter the position immediately, and here we will temporarily hand over
I will give you command. Notify the guard platoon and follow me to the river. I want to see how our opponent crossed the river..."
"Battal Commander, just go ahead with peace of mind. There will be absolutely no problem in leaving this place to me..."
On a section of the east bank of the Yi River, dozens of soldiers, led by battalion commander Li Shengda, were lying motionless on the ground, paying attention to the specific movements of thousands of Japanese and puppet troops on the other side of the river.
"Battal Commander, the enemy has begun to take action..." Wang Junde, the guard platoon leader who noticed the Japanese and puppet troops' movements on the silent battlefield, reminded in a low voice.
"I saw…."
After saying that, Li Shengda raised the telescope in his hand.
A hundred meters away on the other side of the Yi River, a small group of Japanese soldiers, led by a Chinese, slowly walked down the fast-flowing river, holding up their weapons and ammunition, and walked towards their location.
Under the leadership of this Chinese, dozens of people successfully moved to the center of the Yi River in less than a few minutes. What left Li Shengda and everyone inexplicable was that the dozens of people who moved to the center of the Yi River were inexplicable.
The Japanese soldiers were not submerged by the rapid water of the Yi River as everyone imagined. The seemingly turbulent river water in front of them only submerged dozens of small Japanese soldiers to their waists.
"What's going on? The little devils are halfway gone. Why did the river flood up to their waists? Didn't the superiors inform them that without the bridge, even if the little devils were given wings, they would not be able to fly over the Yi River. What the hell is going on?
What's going on..." Battalion Commander Li Shengda asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Battal Commander, I don't know either. However, I believe that there must be a shoal on the Yi River that we don't know about, which is being used by these little devils." Wang Junde next to him replied with the same puzzlement.
Just as Wang Junde finished speaking, the squad leader of the guard platoon said: "Batalion Commander, look, is it the traitor who led the way for the little devil? All the little devils in a small group followed the traitor. Listen.
His command..."
"Uh..." Li Shengda once again raised the telescope in his hand and began to observe carefully. He saw dozens of Japanese soldiers who had walked to the middle of the river. Sure enough, as the squad leader said, a small group of Japanese soldiers were completely following the traitor.
.
"What a bastard traitor... No, we can never let the enemy cross the river so easily. First squad leader, your guard platoon has the best marksmanship. Kill this traitor immediately. The whole guard platoon is ready for battle, first squad leader
After firing, launch an intensive fire attack on dozens of Japs in the middle of Yihe River. After wiping them all out, the camera will retreat." An angry Li Shengda gave a very decisive order to the dozens of soldiers around him.
road.
"Battal Commander, don't worry. One round of shooting is guaranteed to knock down at least half of the little Japs..." After receiving the battle order, Wang Junde's face was immediately shrouded in excitement, and he assured confidently.
"shot….."
"Bang..." Just as Liu Hua finished speaking, a clear sound of rifle shooting broke the tranquility on both sides of the Yi River.
A 65mm bullet, driven by huge kinetic energy, quickly flew out of the gun barrel. In less than a second, in the middle of the Yi River, the traitor who had just waved his arms to direct the Japanese troops behind him to cross the river was killed.
This precise bullet hit his head directly. With a look of unwillingness on his face, he fell heavily into the river and floated downstream.
"Da da da... Bang bang bang..." The clear sound of rifle gunfire had just sounded. In the middle of the Yi River, dozens of little Japanese were in a dilemma. Before they had time to make any reaction, there was a burst of intensive machine gun fire.
Immediately afterwards, it reached their ears again.
Three crooked handles and more than twenty rifles sprayed out a dense rain of bullets, just like a sickle specially designed to harvest lives, and began to harvest the lives of the little Japs. In just an instant, a dozen Japs soldiers, like the following
Like dumplings, it fell into the water with a "plop...plop..." and floated downstream just like the traitor just now.
"Baga... the enemy is attacking, take cover quickly... fight back, fight back immediately..."
Facing the dense rain of bullets fired by three crooked guns, there was no cover in the middle of the Yi River. The only thing the dozens of Japanese soldiers could do was to jump around and wait.
Flying bullets come to harvest your own life.
One minute, just one minute of concentrated fire. In the middle of the Yi River, where dozens of Japanese soldiers were standing just now, at this moment, except for dozens of little Japanese corpses floating downstream, there were only
The next piece of river water is slowly being diluted and has been completely dyed red by the blood of the little devil.
"Battal Commander, a small group of Japanese soldiers were wiped out without anyone slipping through the net..."
"It was a good fight, but the reaction speed of the little devil is really fast enough. Look, the little devil on the other side has already set up artillery and machine guns. Notify the troops to retreat immediately. If we don't leave, we really won't be able to leave.
...." After winning the first battle, Li Shengda ordered very decisively after a brief moment of excitement.
"Yes, battalion commander..."
Dozens of people had just entered the position when a violent explosion of artillery shells was heard from the river bank where they had just been hiding. The instructor who heard the sound of gunfire stood anxiously at the entrance of the command post, waiting for his partner.
Return safely.
"Battal Commander, you are finally back. How are you? Are there any casualties in the troops? What was the sound of gunfire just now?" Seeing the battalion commander rushing into the position safely, the instructor hurriedly greeted him and asked anxiously.
.
"Old Wang, something bad has happened. The little Japs have found a passage across the Yihe River on foot. In the battle just now, we have wiped out almost half of the little Japs crossing the river. If nothing else happens, in ten minutes at most, we will be able to cross the river.
The vanguard of the Japs will be able to cross the Yi River. As for the sound of artillery now, it is the Japs' revenge for our actions just now..." Li Shengda quickly replied.
"Ah! We can cross the river on foot. How could this happen? But, battalion commander, we only have less than one battalion here, but the enemy has more than 5,000 people. What should we do next?" After a brief shock,
, the instructor placed his last hope on his battle-hardened partner Shengshang in front of him, and asked with an anxious look on his face.
"One word, defend... means that the whole battalion will die on the battlefield. We also have to block the way for the little Japanese to break out... Correspondent, run to the regiment headquarters immediately and report the situation here. Each company, immediately strengthen the position and prepare to hold the position...
.." For a moment, Li Shengda's face once again showed a rarely seen murderous look, and he ordered very decisively.
"Yes, Battalion Commander 7..."
In the three trenches stretching several hundred meters outside Gaozhuang Village, there are more than 200 commanders and fighters. Except for the necessary sentries who are still holding rifles and lying on the position, watching attentively for the slightest movement in front of the position. Everyone else, including
Battalion Commander Li Shengda, including battalion commander Li Shengda, all wielded their engineering shovels to deepen and widen the trenches under their feet.
"Battal Commander, from the sound of gunfire just now, I discovered that the Japs are equipped with at least six infantry cannons. These trenches alone, if there are no anti-gun holes, cannot stop the enemy's six infantry cannons and a large number of mortars.
Continuous shelling..." Listening to the constant explosions of artillery shells from the river, the platoon leader of the direct artillery platoon equipped with only one mortar and two grenades quickly walked to Li Shengda's side, with a worried look on his face.
said.
"The anti-bomb hole... It takes ten minutes, even if you give me another battalion of troops, it can't be completed... Platoon leader Huang, please think about it again and see if there is any other way for the soldiers to hide."
Withstand the artillery fire of the Japs..." Without even thinking about it, Battalion Commander Li Shengda readily rejected Platoon Leader Huang's suggestion, and then asked with a frown on his face.
At this moment, Platoon Leader Huang's eyes fell on the battalion headquarters dozens of meters away. Seeing the headquarters with several door panels and a large number of sandbags piled up on top, an idea quickly emerged in Huang Zhang's mind.
in mind.
"Battal Commander, we can organize people to collect some door panels and wood in Gaozhuang, just like it will be different, cover it above the trench, and pile up some sandbags. In this case, as long as it is not directly hit by large-caliber artillery shells, it will cause harm to the troops.
It won't cause much damage..." Platoon Leader Huang suggested with an excited look.
"This method is good, I will have someone do it right away..."
