The first thousand three hundred and eighty-seventh chapter head-on attack
The whistling bullets penetrated the Japs' bodies, and the Japs fell into a large area like wheat, and the air was filled with blood mist.
Japanese Captain Morimoto thought that only a few guerrillas were attacking them, just to delay their movements, but he did not expect that there was an ambush.
The convoy suffered heavy losses in explosions and sudden attacks. Many military vehicles were blown to pieces and burned brightly. In the sudden battle, many Japanese soldiers were killed by bullets before they could even get out of the car.
The Japanese who jumped out of the military vehicle also panicked and hid under the roadbed to fight back. There was a loud burst of gunfire. From time to time, someone was shot and fell into the ditch with a groan. There were roars and gunshots everywhere in the dark night. The scene was extremely extreme.
mess.
"Squadron leader, there are ambushes from the Chongqing Army in the village and on both sides. Let's retreat quickly!"
A Japanese officer with his face covered in blood rushed to Captain Morimoto and suggested an immediate retreat.
Originally, marching into unfamiliar territory at night was an extremely dangerous matter, but now that they were ambushed, many Japanese soldiers panicked and wanted to retreat to a safe place.
"asshole!"
Facing the panicked subordinates, the Japanese Captain Morimoto, who had regained his composure, raised his hand and gave him a loud slap.
"There are only a small number of Chongqing military guerrillas, so why panic?!"
After all, Japanese Captain Morimoto had fought his way out of the battlefield of blood and fire. After a brief period of confusion, he immediately judged from the sound of gunfire that there were not many Chinese troops ambushing them.
Although there were people shooting at them from the village in front and the fields on both sides, the firepower was not strong. According to his many years of experience, they were just company-level troops.
They are an adequate infantry squadron, let alone a company-level squadron. Even if they encounter a regiment-level squadron, they can still be on a draw with the opponent.
In the panic, the commander's calmness and calmness played a key role. Captain Morimoto judged the squadron's troops by the sound of gunfire, so he immediately decided to counterattack.
"The first squad eliminated the left-wing Chongqing Army, the second squad eliminated the right-wing Chongqing Army, the third infantry squad, and the heavy machine gun squad launched a counterattack against the village!"
Captain Morimoto quickly calmed down and issued a series of effective orders.
From encountering the attack to making a quick counterattack decision, Japanese Captain Morimoto didn't waste much time.
Amid the shouts of Japanese officers at all levels, the Japanese soldiers who were lying on the roadbed and ditches and shooting at the Chinese officers and soldiers quickly took action and started to counterattack under the cover of night.
These Japanese soldiers took turns covering each other and launched an attack in the direction where the Chinese officers and soldiers were found. All kinds of light and heavy weapons opened fire one after another.
"Boom!"
The Japanese's grenade fired first, and a ball of red light with a whistling sound hit the village where Sun Liangcheng and others were defending.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The grenade from the grenade exploded when it hit the ground. For a while, smoke and dust filled the village, explosions continued, and rubble fell down in the trembling explosions.
In particular, the place where a heavy machine gun had previously been fired received heavy attention from the Japanese, and the grenade grenade directly blew up the room until it collapsed.
Following the Japanese, the incendiary bombs also fell into the village, and many thatched houses also burst into flames. For a time, thick smoke billowed, flames flew randomly, and many places in the village were burning with raging fires.
"Damn it, you little devil is so fat!"
Facing the Japanese high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs, the officers and soldiers in the village were busy dodging and cursing at the same time.
"The little devil is so fat, let's take a bite out of him and treat him like a slave!"
Company commander Sun Liangcheng was also covered in smoke from the explosion, and became disgraced: "Tell the brothers, keep it close and then fight. After we beat the Japanese, let's eat beef stewed with potatoes!"
"Boohoo!"
As soon as company commander Sun Liangcheng finished speaking, the Japanese fired flares at the village, and a large number of dark Japanese soldiers came up from the east with bayonets in hand.
The Chinese officers and soldiers who emerged from the rubble of the explosion straightened their machine guns again, loaded their rifles with bullets, unscrewed the bottom caps of grenades, and waited for the Japanese to come over with heavy breathing.
"Da da da......"
The Japanese infantry passed over the bombed and burning military vehicles, stepped over the corpses of their comrades, and pressed towards the village with a fierce look on their faces. The machine guns responsible for covering the walls and bunkers were riddled with smoke and dust.
splash.
Soon the little devil was again a few dozen meters away, and with the help of the burning firelight, one could even see the little devil's ferocious face with unshaven beard.
It's not easy for these little devils. They have been fighting against the Chinese team since May. They have been fighting for nearly two months and are already exhausted.
Now they were ordered to turn back and attack Yichang again. After going back and forth, they had lost the vigor they had at the beginning. Although their combat effectiveness was reduced, they still should not be underestimated.
Seeing the Japanese's bayonets delivered to them, company commander Sun Liangcheng gave the order to shoot.
"Teng Teng Teng -"
"Da da da......"
The shooting this time was not the sporadic firepower just now. Long tongues of flame spurted out from the shooting holes in several walls, and the hidden light and heavy machine guns opened fire at the same time.
"Puff puff!"
"ah!"
Under this scorching fire net, the little devils who rushed forward with great force immediately fell into a large area.
"Kill Gai Gai!"
But having already reached such a close distance, the Japanese did not intend to back down and immediately launched a pig charge.
Moreover, the light and heavy machine guns deployed by the Japanese at the side and rear also began to fire and cover, and the crisscrossing lines of fire were very lively.
And those Japanese soldiers who were charging suddenly ran into the firepower of the heavy machine gun. Half of the body of one of the Japanese soldiers was killed by the heavy machine gun. There were screams one after another, and the Japanese soldiers were suppressed to the ground and could not move forward.
.
Seeing that there was such strong firepower in the village, the Japanese grenade group was also angry, and they immediately fired fiercely again. Explosions occurred one after another around the machine gun fire point, and they were soon shrouded in smoke and dust.
"Move quickly!"
Seeing that the machine gun firepower was being taken care of by the Japanese grenade, they had to cease fire and move to other positions, otherwise they would be blown to pieces by the grenade.
The Japanese infantry took advantage of the weakened firepower of the defenders to jump up from the ground and charge again. In the blink of an eye, they could rush into the village.
But as soon as the Japanese soldiers got up and rushed a few steps, a dense barrage of grenades volleyed over them.
Although the Japs had grenades, the defenders also had grenades. Amidst a series of explosions, those Japs who were standing up were knocked down again, and they suddenly wailed.
The Japanese Captain Morimoto did not expect that the defenders were so strong. Seeing the attacking troops suffer heavy losses, he had to order the Japanese to retreat, and the first attack failed.
