Eight hundred and twelve chapters underestimate the enemy
Wherever Japanese Major Ichiro Kuroda looked, all the puppet soldiers lowered their heads in panic, not daring to look at him.
Moreover, they ran away all the way, leaving themselves covered in mud and in a state of embarrassment. Some even had their hands empty and were at a loss. They didn't even know where they had thrown their guns.
Seeing this scene, Kuroda Ichiro's lungs were about to burst with anger. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth. He wanted to shoot these muddy things that couldn't hold up the wall to death.
However, most of these puppet soldiers were recruited locally. Once they are killed, it will definitely cause instability in local security.
After all, they are now vigorously promoting their identity as invaders in the occupied areas, and beautifying them as coming to help build the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.
Therefore, although Kuroda Ichiro's eyes were filled with fierceness and he wanted to kill someone, he could not hold back the anger in his heart. He took a few deep breaths and finally calmed himself down.
The puppet battalion commander Zhang Lezi saw Kuroda Ichiro standing there with a gloomy face, and felt the fierce murderous intent. He was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he felt that his life was in danger.
Fortunately, in the end, Kuroda Ichiro resisted the urge to kill and slapped Zhang Laizi hard: "Trash!"
A crisp slap sounded, and clear and swollen slap marks suddenly appeared on Zhang Lezi's face, burning pain, but facing the eagerly watching Japanese soldiers around him, Zhang Lezi grinned in pain, but he could only nod and bend to endure it.
.
The defeated puppet troops had no will to fight. In the morning, they had been fighting at the front with the guerrillas. The heavy casualties had demoralized them.
But now the puppet troops are cold and hungry and just want to retreat to Qinghe Town as soon as possible, and have no intention of serving as rear guard cover, so they are no longer of use.
Kuroda Ichiro originally thought of using the puppet troops to delay the guerrillas' pursuit, but the performance of the puppet troops really made him uneasy, and in the end he had to rely on their own people.
"Kameda-san——"
Ichiro Kuroda turned his attention to the Japanese Lieutenant Kameda who looked tired.
When Lieutenant Kameda heard the shouting, he looked away from the hazy rain and fog, turned around and walked a few steps quickly to Ichiro Kuroda and bowed heavily.
"Your squadron will stay behind to stop the pursuing guerrillas." Ichiro Kuroda gave the order.
"Hi!" Captain Kameda agreed simply after being stunned for a moment.
Ichiro Kuroda nodded with satisfaction and warned: "Don't get too entangled with the guerrillas. Retreat after completing the cover and interception mission."
Captain Kameda naturally knew how powerful the guerrillas were, so he nodded to indicate that he understood.
"Battle Commander Zhang——" After Ichiro Kuroda finished his instructions, he called out to the puppet battalion commander Zhang Laizi again.
Zhang Laizi covered his red and swollen face with one hand and was secretly cursing Ichiro Kuroda for having a child. He was frightened by such a sudden shout.
"Taijun, Taijun, what are your orders?"
Zhang Laizi responded quickly and approached Kuroda Ichiro, forcing a smile to ask.
Kuroda Ichiro pointed at his group of embarrassed subordinates and said: "Leave one company to assist Kameda-san as the rearguard, and the rest...return to support the work of Qinghe Town..."
Hearing that Ichiro Kuroda would not allow him to serve as a defender, Zhang Laizi suddenly felt happy and hurriedly responded: "Yes, I will make arrangements right away!"
"Tell them that if they dare to retreat without a fight... they will all die... die!" Kuroda Ichiro warned with murderous intent.
"I understand, I understand." Zhang Laizi replied with some guilt.
Soon, Japanese Major Kuroda Ichiro completed the arrangements, leaving behind a squadron of Japanese soldiers and a company of puppet troops, he led the main force towards Qinghe Town at lightning speed.
The Japanese squadron leader Kameda, who was responsible for covering the rear, took over the command, and the team of 300 people quickly built a simple defense system based on a few low mounds.
The guerrilla officers and soldiers of the squad that had been chasing them earlier were repulsed, and they chased brothers from two more squads. After merging together, their strength was greatly increased.
"Brothers, kill the Japanese! Charge with me!"
They had defeated hundreds of puppet troops before, which also made them feel proud. Without knowing the depth of the situation, they once again launched an attack on the retreating Japanese rearguard.
But what they don't know is that the Japs have now adjusted their deployment. It is not only the puppet troops who are staying behind to cover the retreat, but also a squadron of Japs.
Although Kameda Squadron had lost more than 40 people in the previous battle, it still had more than 140 fighting soldiers and was still strong, not to mention the kind-hearted assistance of a company of puppet troops.
More than thirty guerrilla officers and soldiers held guns and jumped up from behind the cover of mud pits and vegetation full of mud and water, and quickly rushed towards the Japanese rearguard defending in the rain and fog.
Most of these guerrilla officers and soldiers, who are new recruits, have become red-eyed. In just one day, after experiencing the baptism of blood, they have gradually grown up from the initial panic and fear to the fearlessness now.
.
But after all, they still had too little battlefield experience. The veterans who led the team also ignored the fact that they were not leading a group of experienced veterans, but a group of new recruits. They only wanted to catch the Japanese in front of the friendly company and ignored the battlefield.
subtle changes in the situation.
These guerrilla brothers worked in groups of three, opened the skirmish line and rushed forward. They had already practiced shooting on the move countless times. They loaded the gun, took aim, and pulled the trigger in one go.
The whistling bullets continued to penetrate the rain and fog into the Japanese's temporary defensive position, and from time to time, low screams could be heard.
The puppet soldiers lying on the wet ground were holding guns one by one, bullets whizzing past their heads, their whitened lips biting tightly. The Japanese squadron leader Kameda did not give an order, and they did not dare to fire without permission.
gun.
Japanese squadron leader Kameda was lying down behind a mound. Through the hazy rain and fog, he could see the figures of guerrilla officers and soldiers with guns rushing towards him. Judging from the number of people and the sound of gunfire, the number of guerrillas was not large. His
A cruel sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.
The Japanese soldiers have an almost rigid endurance. Without orders from their superiors, even though some people are constantly being shot and injured and being carried to the back, they still do not move at all like dormant beasts.
Seeing the figures of the guerrilla officers and soldiers gradually becoming clearer, the Japanese could even clearly see the guerrilla officers and soldiers running through the puddles and splashing muddy water all over the sky, but they still did not move, their calmness was heart-stopping.
"shooting!"
When the guerrilla officers and soldiers rushed to a distance of 70 or 80 meters, Captain Kameda sneered cruelly and waved down his raised arm with all his strength.
"Teng Teng Teng——"
The Type 92 heavy machine gun placed on a slightly hard ground roared first, and the sinister bullets hit the rushing guerrilla officers and soldiers with arrogance.
Almost defenseless, facing the heavy machine gun bullets that swept over them, a three-man combat team rushing forward was immediately torn to pieces by the violent heavy machine gun bullets. Blood and minced meat flew everywhere, and they didn't even scream.
Before he could send it out, he was pushed backwards by the powerful impact and fell heavily into the muddy water.
