Whether it was Zeng Quan or Zhong Yusheng, they had long since admired Wang Ping's various methods of fighting the Japanese.
Although they knew that the chance of surviving if they stayed to contain the Japs was very low, out of trust in Wang Ping, the two of them happily stayed without saying a word.
Although there were reasons for the Eighth Route Army's military discipline, both of them believed that Wang Ping would definitely create another miracle.
It is precisely because of this trust that both of them carried out Wang Ping's orders to the letter.
After Zeng Quan laid out the booby traps, the Japanese had already rushed more than 20 meters in front of everyone.
Wang Ping and Zhong Yusheng, who were hiding behind two big trees, looked at each other, leaned out from behind the big trees at the same time, then held the crooked handle and pulled the trigger in the direction of the Japanese.
After several Japs were caught off guard and beaten into a hornet's nest, the two men were not greedy for success. Before the Japs could react, they quickly hid behind the big tree and continued to retreat into the forest along the route they had chosen.
As soon as Wang Ping retreated, the Japanese machine guns opened fire.
By the time the Japs rushed to their hiding spot, they had already disappeared without a trace. The booby traps Zeng Quan had prepared for them killed and wounded three Japs soldiers again.
At this time, the Japanese infantry squad had been reduced sharply to more than thirty people. However, the Japanese squad leader also realized that the Eighth Route Army that attacked him could not exceed three people at most.
This meant that an elite infantry squad was fooled by three cowardly Chinese, and nearly twenty warriors were lost.
Once such news spreads to the army, he and the entire team will definitely become the laughing stock of his colleagues.
In order not to become a joke, the angry squad leader made a direct decision to eliminate these shameful attackers no matter what the cost, and then cut them into pieces with his own hands. Only in this way can the squad leader hold himself in his heart
The anger was vented.
So, as soon as the three subordinates were turned into bloody corpses in the explosion, the team leader roared kindly: "Bagya Road, there are booby traps again! Watch your steps, don't run into booby traps again. Warriors, continue the pursuit.
The Eighth Route Army must destroy them!"
The squad leader's orders and shouts also aroused the animalistic nature of his subordinates. Dozens of Japanese soldiers instantly became fanatical and chased Wang Ping in the direction of retreat at all costs.
Because the Japanese had already noticed the booby trap, they easily dodged the next booby trap set by Zeng Quan.
"The booby traps don't work anymore, so we can only use our guns to fight them slowly!" Wang Ping said with a solemn expression, frowning.
"Platoon leader Zeng, you are using a rifle. You are responsible for sniping Japanese machine gunners and officers. Squad leader Zhong and I will cover you. I will give you a chance to shoot two bullets. You must retreat immediately after firing two bullets!" Wang Ping followed.
commanded.
More than thirty Japs soon ran into them. As soon as a Japs machine gunner came into Zeng Quan's field of vision, Zeng Quan opened fire.
The Japanese machine gunner fell down in response, and Zeng Quan quickly shrank back behind the big tree.
But the Japanese's reaction speed was also very fast, and the flying bullets kept flying toward the big tree where he was hiding.
At this time, Wang Ping and Zhong Yusheng, who were not far away, decisively emerged from behind the big tree, then held crooked guns and fired in the direction of the Japs. Three or four Japs were beaten into a hornet's nest on the spot.
The attention of the remaining Japanese soldiers also turned to the two of them at this time, and rifles and light machine guns were all directed towards them.
Because Zhong Yusheng's reaction was a little slow, a bullet pierced a bloody hole in his arm.
Zeng Quan also took this opportunity to shoot a second bullet, sending a Japanese soldier into the sky.
"Squad leader Zhong, leave the machine gun! Retreat with Platoon Leader Zeng, and I'll cover you!" Wang Ping ordered with a firm look on his face, without any tone of discussion!
The Japanese also understood Wang Ping's fighting style and knew that Wang Ping would be able to run away with one strike. Seeing that there was no movement where the three men were hiding, they subconsciously shouted: "Baga, the cunning Tubalu has retreated again, everyone, hurry up and chase!"
Less than thirty Japs emerged from behind the big tree, howling and preparing to pursue them. Wang Ping, with a sneer on his face, immediately got out and shot at them.
The rate of fire was originally very slow, but at this time, the rate of fire of the heavy machine gun was actually in his hand.
In less than two seconds, nearly ten bullets were fired from the barrel of the gun.
Amidst the dull gunfire, three more Japs fell down. Then Wang Ping, regardless of the outcome of the battle, hid directly behind a big tree, then took out a grenade and prepared a more concealed booby trap for the Japs.
After all, Zeng Quan had just arranged a booby trap on a date. The technique was simple and the Japanese would have noticed it if they paid close attention.
But Wang Ping is different. There are more than a dozen ways to lay out booby traps that he is familiar with in his mind. Taking out any one of them will be a disaster for the Japanese, even if they are very vigilant in pursuit.
After quickly arranging the booby traps, Wang Ping took advantage of the cover of the big tree and retreated behind with his machine gun in hand.
After running less than thirty meters, Zeng Quan appeared hiding behind a big tree.
"Commander Wang, Squad Leader Zhong can retreat by himself, I will stay and deal with the Japanese with you!" Zeng Quan quickly explained.
At this time, Wang Ping didn't say anything more and directly ordered: "Then we'll deal with a few more Japs here! Hide them first and look at the gift I prepared for the Japs!"
It didn't take long for more than twenty Japanese soldiers to rush to where Wang Ping had been hiding.
The blood stains dripping on the ground when Zhong Yusheng was injured were quickly discovered by the Japanese.
Wang Ping originally only had three people, but now that someone else is injured, his combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly weakened.
The squad leader, who was already overwhelmed with rage, quickly became fanatical and ordered his subordinates to continue the pursuit without thinking.
"Boom..." As soon as the order was given, the booby traps Wang Ping prepared for them were detonated, and three nearby Japanese soldiers fell to the ground dead or injured.
But this casualty did not stop the squad leader from wanting to kill Wang Ping, and more than 20 Japanese soldiers continued to charge forward.
At Wang Ping's signal, Zeng Quan fired first. As soon as the gunshot rang out, a Japanese soldier holding a machine gun fell to the ground.
Just like the previous firefight, the remaining Japanese soldiers shot at Zeng Quan.
Wang Ping seized the opportunity, held the machine gun and shot in the direction of the Japs, especially in the direction of the Japs squad leader.
A string of bullets flew over, and the three Japs, including the squad leader, were directly beaten into a hornet's nest.
After the fight, Wang Ping began to lay out booby traps, and then continued to retreat under Zeng Quan's cover.
The two of them became more and more skilled in fighting. In addition, the Japs lost their squad leader, so they rushed forward with all their fanaticism. After two more firefights, the number of Japs soldiers still alive was reduced to ten.
The sergeant who took over the command from the squad leader also woke up from his frenzy.
Thinking of the passive beatings along the way, and then thinking of Wang Ping's cunning, I immediately felt a chill in my heart.
The elusive opponent was not even afraid of an elite infantry squad, let alone the ten remaining soldiers in front of him. At this moment, the sergeant thought of retreating. Otherwise, the entire infantry squad would die here.
