Within a short time, the main hall and the wing rooms began to burn, and the fire spread rapidly.
The little Japanese hiding in the main hall and the wing rooms on both sides immediately realized the danger when they saw this. They quickly broke open the doors and windows and tried to rush out, but Yao Lei had already concentrated the three machine guns of the 1st company and fired at the main entrance of the main hall and the wing rooms.
Fire was blocked, and the remaining rifles were used to block the windows of the main hall and the penthouse.
The first dozen or so Japanese who rushed out were quickly knocked down.
When the Japanese hiding in the main hall and the wing saw this, they immediately changed their tactics and threw more than a dozen grenades from inside.
In an instant, more than a dozen grenades that puffed out smoke rolled to the ground. However, Yao Lei had already learned a lesson. He had already asked the veterans in the courtyard to find a Japanese corpse as a cover.
They were all hiding behind the corpses of the Japanese. Yao Lei himself hid behind the big tree in the yard, and the remaining veterans were guarding the courtyard wall.
The little devil had exhausted the delay before throwing the grenade, so more than a dozen grenades exploded immediately after they hit the ground. However, because the officers and soldiers of the 1st company had been prepared for it, they were almost unscathed. Only one unlucky veteran was injured by the explosion.
The fragment of the knife opened a bloody gash on his face. He was bleeding non-stop and was dragged off by the hygienist.
After throwing the grenades, the Japanese immediately launched a second wave of attacks, but were pushed back by the 1st Company's machine guns.
With such a delay, the fire was completely out of control. The mountain temple was completely engulfed by the fire. The main hall and the wing rooms on both sides were completely filled with thick smoke from the burning. The 1st company of Japanese soldiers outside could even hear
The coughing and wailing of the Japanese inside, and the dying wailing sound at this time, made people feel particularly comfortable.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and even the yard could no longer stand.
Yao Lei waved his hand and led the officers and soldiers of the 1st company to withdraw from the yard and guard the surroundings from a distance.
When Yao Lei led the officers and soldiers of the 1st company to retreat outside the mountain temple, they found that tongues of fire were already sprouting from the top of the mountain temple, and the entire building of the mountain temple had been completely swallowed up by the fire.
However, Yao Lei and the officers and soldiers of the 1st Company still underestimated the little Japanese.
Just when Yao Lei and the officers and soldiers of the 1st company thought that the Japs in the Shanshen Temple were certain to die, the back wall of the Shanshen Temple hall collapsed with a big explosion. Looking at this posture, it was probably the Japs who were attacking at the foot of the back wall.
Then a few grenades were put into the hole to blow it up, and before the smoke and dust dispersed, a dozen Japanese cavalrymen clashed out of the gap.
"You idiot, shoot me!" The 1st platoon leader responsible for sealing off the back of the mountain temple was startled and quickly ordered to shoot.
Unfortunately, the machine gun of the 1st platoon jammed at this time. The remaining 20 or so 38 guns were fired too slowly and were not enough to stop the Japanese cavalry's charge. At the cost of only a few cavalry, the remaining
Sixty-seven Japanese cavalrymen came close, and then they slashed with their sabers. Several soldiers blocking the front immediately fell into a pool of blood, and the originally complete blockade was torn open.
However, the Japanese cavalry also knew that the situation was over, so after breaking through the blockade, they did not continue to attack, but chose a direction and fled in panic. When Yao Lei heard the movement and led the other two and a half platoons to bypass the temple,
, the six or seven Japanese cavalrymen had already arrived a hundred meters away, Yao Lei hurriedly took a shot of 38 big caps, and finally knocked down one of them again.
In less than half an hour, a night attack battle was over. The search team of more than 60 people who came to Xiaoli Village, except for six or seven Japanese cavalry who escaped, the rest were either beaten to death or burned to death. However,
The 1st company also suffered more than a dozen casualties, and the cost was quite high, which made Yao Lei very angry.
Moreover, the entire mountain temple had been caught in fire, and the Japs' weapons and equipment were reduced to ashes along with their corpses, so the loot was not too much, which made Yao Lei even more irritated.
"Donkey sun, retreat!" Yao Lei spat at the raging fire and ordered a retreat.
In less than a moment, all the officers and soldiers of the 1st Company, together with the wounded, retreated from the fake grave into the tunnel. When the tombstone was closed, everything returned to its original state, as if the officers and soldiers of the 1st Company had never appeared.
After about half an hour, the Japanese reinforcements arrived in a hurry.
Coming for reinforcements was Muto Akira's brigade, accompanied by Takeo Yamayama and six cavalrymen.
But unfortunately, by the time Muto Akira led a group of more than 700 Japanese soldiers to the mountain temple, half of the entire mountain temple had been burned down, but the fire was more intense than before, and it was almost impossible to stand within 20 meters.
, in such a fierce fire, even steel can be melted by you, let alone flesh and blood?
Needless to say, the fifty or so search team trapped in the mountain temple must have been collectively destroyed, and they even skipped the process of cremating the corpse. They just scooped some ashes from it and put it in a box and transported it back to Japan. Even if it was right
One of the relatives of these fallen officers and soldiers confessed.
"Baga!" Muto Akira's facial muscles twitched twice, and he cursed from between his teeth.
Looking back, Muto Akira asked Yamatakeo again: "Sangsan, how many people are there in the China Army?"
Yamatakeo thought for a while and answered uncertainly: "At least one squadron, maybe more?"
"Baga." Muto Zhang was furious, slapped Takeo on the mountain fiercely, and cursed, "You don't even know how many troops there are in the China Army, what do you do for food? Don't forget, you are a search team, you guys
Your mission is to find and capture the China Army. Now you have been attacked by the China Army. You actually don’t even know how many troops the China Army has, where they come from, and where they are going. How did you search?"
"Hai." Yamatakeo was beaten, but he didn't dare to resist.
This is hierarchy. The hierarchy in Japan is really not that strict. In front of infantrymen who are farmers, cavalrymen like Yamatakeo who are warriors can dominate. But in front of senior officers who are also warriors,
Yamatakeo immediately became a gray grandson.
Muto Akira's saliva sprayed onto Yamatakeo's face, and then he said viciously: "Go and find me immediately and find out the whereabouts of the China Army. If you can't find it, you guys will commit seppuku to express gratitude to the Emperor."
"Hai." Yamatakeo nodded heavily, and just as he was about to turn around and leave with a few cavalrymen, Ogawara Junsi came over with Ito Tamanosuke, and called to Yamada.
"Okahara-san, did you discover something?" Muto Akira immediately began to have hope.
Ogawara Junsi did not disappoint Muto Akira, nodded and said: "I did find something."
Then Ogawara Junsi brought Muto Akira to the corpse of the Japanese sentry, pointed to the wound on the sentry's right chest and said to Muto Akira: "Muto-san, look, there are wounds on his body from the direction where the sentry fell.
, it is basically certain that the Chinese Army fired from the direction of three o'clock to five o'clock."
Then, Oluhara Junsi took Muto Akira to the four o'clock direction. With the help of a torch, he found a bush with obvious traces of being pressed, and said: "Muto-san, look, this bush used to be
It has been crushed by people, and the traces are still fresh. It is obvious that the Chinese army was hidden here not long ago."
"But what's the use of this?" Muto Zhang frowned, "What I need is the whereabouts of the China Army."
"Muto-san, don't be anxious, you have to eat in one bite." Oluhara Junsi smiled slightly, then led Muto Akira to the fake grave, and said, "I just followed the traces left by the Chinese army.
, when we finally tracked it here, we suddenly lost all traces.”
Muto Akira looked at the grave in front of him and asked: "Oluhara-san, what do you mean?"
Oluhara Junsi smiled slightly and said: "If I guessed correctly, the Chinese army that attacked the eighth search team came from this tomb. After the attack was completed, they also disappeared from here."
After hearing these words from Ogawara Junsi, Akira Muto and several Japanese officers behind him stood up with all the hair on their bodies. The Chinese army that attacked the eighth search team turned out to be dead people crawling out of their graves, Yin soldiers?
Are there really Yin soldiers in this world? Could it be that the broken jade of the Tachibana detachment at Qixing Lake was also caused by the Yin soldiers of China?
Thinking of fighting a group of ghosts, Akira Muto and the other officers suddenly felt a chill on the back of their necks.
From the expressions of Wu Tengzhang and several officers, Ogahara Junsi knew that they were thinking of sending someone wrong, but he did not explain it. He just gave Ito Tamanosuke a wink. Ito Tamanosuke paused slightly, and then took another
The special forces moved the tombstone. The tombstone of this tomb looked relatively large, but it was not heavy and could be easily moved.
When the tombstone was moved away, the dark tomb hole was immediately revealed, but the expected corpse odor was not there.
Tamanosuke Ito took a torch from a special soldier behind him, and then stretched the torch into the tomb. The next moment, the flame that was originally pointing upward immediately tilted to one side and was pulled into the tomb.
, and also made a whirring sound.
"Muto-san, do you see clearly?" Oluhara Junsi said with a smile, "The flames were drawn deep into the tomb, which means that this tomb is not a dead hole, but a through-hole. This tomb is simply fake.
There is another mystery!"
"You mean?" Muto Zhang said suddenly, "Tunnel? The Chinese army dug a tunnel under the tomb?"
Oluhara Junsi shook his head and said: "No, the China Army did not dig a tunnel under the tomb, but the tomb was built by the China Army to disguise the entrance of the tunnel!"
Muto Akira said: "In other words, the Chinese army is hiding in the tunnel?"
"It's not just the Chinese army." Oluhara Junsi nodded slightly, "but also the Chinese people. They should all be hiding in the tunnels."
"Bagayalu, these damn cunning China rats, no wonder we couldn't find any trace of them before. They all hid underground." Muto Zhang cursed, then called Takeo on the mountain to him and ordered, "
Sang Shan, take your cavalry team and go down to the tunnel to investigate."
"Hai." Takeo on the mountain was frightened, but he could only agree to it. Who made Muto Akira the captain, and he was just a sergeant? It is said that the rank of an official is overwhelming, not to mention that Muto Akira is older than him.
What about level six?
Takeo on the mountain called his six cavalrymen over and climbed into the tomb tremblingly.
