"Company commander, I finally got in front of the little devil. My legs almost broke off all the way!" The deputy company commander, who didn't stop on his feet along the way, gasped and shouted.
The company commander was also panting, but the ninja still ordered: "We can't relax yet. The mission given to us by the battalion commander is to delay the little devil for ten minutes to buy time for the troops who follow up! There is a bush in front, and the troops are hiding on the spot.
We'll ambush the Japs' forward troops there!"
The deputy company commander immediately replied: "I will arrange it right away!"
Changing the subject, he added: "However, this time the little devils were too cunning. They only used a few flashlights during the night march. We can only see their vague figures here. In addition, the troops are very
I'm tired, I'm sure, and the result won't be much better!"
The company commander shook his head and replied: "We don't need to kill many Japs. As long as we can scare them and slow down their march, our mission will be completed!"
"Also, please stay vigilant for me for a while. There are many Japs. If you just send an infantry squadron over, they can make dumplings for us. So, after the battle starts, you must be more vigilant and keep an eye on the road for me.
Little devil!"
What the company commander did not expect was that from the moment they caught up with the Japanese, the Japanese scouts at the rear would spot them.
Fatigue reduced the vigilance of the entire company by at least 30%, and they did not realize that there were little Japanese scouts following behind them. They also did not realize that at least three infantry squads of Japanese soldiers were surrounding them under the guidance of the scouts.
"Bang bang...bang bang bang..."
The company commander fired first, breaking the tranquility of the night.
Under the darkness of night, the soldiers were unable to take precise aim, even though they were only more than a hundred meters away from the road. However, with the density of firepower, they still mopped up a large number of Japs.
"Da da da...ah..."
But at this moment, the gunfire from behind and the screams beside him made the company commander confused.
"Boom boom..."
Before he could react from the shock, a series of explosions rang in his ears, waking him up.
"No, there are little Japs behind us. Retreat immediately and break out..." The company commander with a shocked expression on his face immediately ordered.
Yan Song led the main force of the battalion to pursue the Japanese army closely. The continuous pursuit also made them breathless and relaxed their vigilance!
Suddenly, a burst of gunfire rang out in front, and then the fire caused by a grenade explosion appeared on the road.
"Da da da……"
The gunshots were getting closer and closer to him, and stray bullets were even flying towards him, killing and wounding several guards around him.
"The enemy attacked, we were ambushed by the Japs... What did the forward troops do for food, and we didn't even notice!" The shocked Yan Song subconsciously fell to the ground, pulled out his pistol, stared at the surroundings with a vigilant face and ordered!
"The troops will counterattack on the spot. The third battalion will be newly formed. They will immediately go behind the little Japanese ambush troops and attack them from the front and back to kill them!"
The Japanese army made a temporary decision to ambush the new regiment's pursuit force, and there was only one such opportunity. In a hurry, the captain who decided to fight this battle only assembled four infantry squads.
The idea of the Japanese captain was very simple: to retaliate in kind and kill at least one company of the Eighth Route Army through an ambush.
It was a good idea, but he still underestimated the new regiment's night fighting capabilities. After all, the Eighth Route Army had fought night battles with them for several years, and all kinds of tactics were already well understood.
If the Eighth Route Army had been in charge of this ambush, they would have retreated after the sudden burst of firepower and achieved maximum results with minimum casualties.
However, the Japanese captain was too greedy, and it was his first time commanding such a battle and he lacked experience!
Seeing that the first round of rapid fire attack had achieved great results and killed many Eighth Route Army troops, my self-confidence immediately swelled and I planned to hold on for another five minutes to completely kill the Eighth Route Army troops who had been left in the ambush circle.
But just in these five minutes, he lost his wife and lost his troops!
A burst of gunfire came from behind and a grenade exploded next to him. The captain suddenly woke up. The follow-up troops of the Eighth Route Army were coming to kill him!
"Bageya Road, why did the Eighth Route Army react so quickly? Retreat, the troops will retreat immediately. Leave here, don't let the Eighth Route Army get stuck... If you really can't run away, just fight them to the death here!"
An ambush in the nature of a sneak attack was turned into an encounter due to the Japs brigade captain being too arrogant, resulting in the loss of two infantry squads.
However, the captain was also very fortunate. In addition to the casualties caused by the ambush battle to the Eighth Route Army, he used two infantry squads to kill at least one company of the New Regiment.
"Battal Commander, the Japs have divided their troops in front. At least two thousand Japs took the small road and killed them towards Tianyuan Town at a very fast speed!" Before he could recover from the heavy casualties just now, the leader of the reconnaissance platoon rushed over.
, bring yourself an even more scary news!
"What, Tianyuan Town!" Yan Song's face suddenly turned pale.
As the person in charge of this base area, he knows how far it is from Tianyuan Town without looking at a map.
He judged with a stern face: "Get out of here, we have been tricked by the little devils~ They are building a plank road openly and secretly crossing Chencang~ Contact the regiment headquarters immediately to evacuate the people in Tianyuan Town. You must hurry up. The little devils can be killed by marching in three hours.
In the past, I now ordered the newly formed third battalion to hold them back at all costs and find ways to gain one to two hours more!"
Wang Ping of the New Regiment Headquarters was also frightened by Lieutenant General Fujino's tricks!
He immediately asked Huang Yuanqiang: "Is there any problem in evacuating all the people in Tianyuan Town within three hours?"
The political commissar replied with a frightened look on his face: "Fortunately, when we issued the evacuation order to Dongxing Town, we also issued evacuation orders to several surrounding villages and towns. I will call them now and ask them to hurry up. There should be no problem in three hours!"
Wang Ping's tense nerves relaxed immediately!
If it weren't for the unnecessary effort of the political commissar, the evacuation of a town in three hours would definitely not have been completed. And once those people fell into the hands of the little devils, the consequences would be disastrous!
He hesitated and ordered: "Political Commissar, give them an order immediately. The faster the better, all the people in Tianyuan Town must be evacuated within three hours at most!"
"I also gave an order to the newly formed third battalion to stop the Japanese at all costs and buy Tianyuan Town more time to retreat.
At four o'clock in the morning, two groups of little devils arrived at Dongxing Town and Tianyuan Town almost at the same time.
Looking at the dead and silent town in front of them, many little devils had a look of disappointment on their faces.
But the division commander, Lieutenant General Fujino, had a smile on his face from beginning to end.
Along the way, especially in the next few hours, the sounds of gunshots and explosions rang in our ears almost never stopped.
As a veteran, judging the battle situation by the sound of gunfire is the most basic quality possessed by Lieutenant General Fujino.
Although his dispersed troops have not yet responded, Lieutenant General Fujino already feels that those troops must have achieved a lot of results!
"Division commander, the humble captain of the fourth brigade has been ordered to report!" At this moment, a lieutenant general rushed over with a smile, and reported excitedly when he saw Lieutenant General Fujino.
"Tanaka-kun, I feel relieved when I see the smile on your face... after a few hours of fighting, the troops must have achieved a lot of results!" Fujino asked with a smile.
"Hi! The division commander is wise!" Lieutenant Colonel Tanaka replied immediately.
"The army lost one squadron in total, but we killed nearly three companies of the Eighth Route Army. The exact result alone was more than 350 people!"
