At the new regiment headquarters, after reading the telegram sent by Li Wen, before Wang Ping had time to speak, the political commissar next to him had already cursed with anger...
"This Commander Yan is really good at scheming. Following the Japanese army, if the Japanese abandon a place, his troops will follow and occupy another place. At that time, they can report it to Chongqing. Those towns were attacked by the Jinsui army all the way. Kill two birds with one stone!"
"I don't know what kind of ecstasy drug he gave the little devil, but the little devil was so cooperative with them!"
Wang Ping sneered and agreed: "Our Chief Yan is indeed the local emperor of Shanxi. He got everything he wanted, including reputation and territory. And our Eighth Route Army paid so many casualties to force the little Japs out of southwest Shanxi. Not only did we lose everything
If he didn’t get it, he would have to face the attack of more than 20,000 days of puppet troops and endure huge pressure. He didn’t kill two birds with one stone, but three birds with one stone!”
"He got the territory, gained the reputation, and forced us and the little devil to continue to fight. In the end, it ended up being a lose-lose outcome. He was just able to reap the benefits!"
"We must not let Chief Yan's treacherous plan succeed!" Zhong Chenggong replied with an expression of gritted teeth.
Wang Ping answered with certainty: "Don't worry, even if we can't destroy the cooperation between the Jinsui Army and the Japanese, I will still create some trouble between them to make their cooperation less smooth!"
"Chief of Staff, send a telegram to Li Wen now and find a way to get the Japanese army to fight with the Jinsui Army that is pursuing them!"
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army, which had been marching for a day, stopped directly in a town they were passing by.
After a burst of crackling gunfire, the people in the town helped the old and the young, crying and crying, but they were all driven out by the little devils.
When the Jinsui Army who were following in pursuit saw this scene, they subconsciously wanted to rush into the town and start a fight with the little devils while they were still on their feet.
The group leader was also very impulsive, but in the end decided not to take the risk.
"No one is allowed to go. We have an order from the top. When we are chasing the little devils, we must not get close to them to avoid being bitten by them."
"Let's rest here tonight. The three battalions will take turns to be on duty. Each battalion will be responsible for three hours. Remember, no one can relax their vigilance!"
At one o'clock in the morning, Li Wen led more than 40 members of his direct team, wearing the uniforms of the Shanxi-Sui Army, into a battle formation under the cover of night. Like ghosts in the night, they approached the town little by little.
A regiment of the Jinsui Army was stationed nearby. Although he knew that they would not be able to attack him, the Japanese captain who led the group was still very vigilant and arranged an entire infantry squadron to be responsible for patrolling and guarding at night.
An infantry squad was deployed just at the entrance of the town, gathering around three bonfires to keep warm.
"Da da da……"
Suddenly, the clear sound of submachine gun fire sounded outside the town.
Before the little Japs who stood on guard with guns at the entrance of the town had time to react, a string of bullets flew over them and smashed them into pieces. They fell to the ground with a stunned expression of despair.
"Baga~ Enemy attack, immediately counterattack in concealment!"
The squad leader reacted first, drew his command knife and pointed it outside the village!
"Da da da~"
The remaining Japs fell to the ground one after another, holding the rifles in their arms and preparing to shoot.
A heavy machine gun and two light machine guns mounted at the entrance of the town were the first to respond.
The whizzing bullets flew out of the town like meteors in the night, and their flight trajectories could be clearly seen.
"Bang bang bang..."
The gunshots outside the town became more and more intensive. Rifles and light machine guns all rang out at once. The bullets were dense and accurate. Japs were constantly being killed, especially the shooters of the three machine guns. In less than ten seconds
Just changed the whole thing!
The individual combat capabilities of the directly affiliated team are very strong. Whether they are ordinary riflemen or machine gunners, they will never stay in the same position for more than five seconds!
Constantly changing shooting positions, a combat team originally equipped with only three machine guns appeared to the Japanese to have as many as six or seven.
Coupled with the unique firing sound of submachine guns, the little devil immediately made a judgment: "Baga, the one attacking us is the Jinsui Army~At least one company of the Jinsui Army is attacking us at night!"
"Contact the squadron leader immediately, ask for reinforcements, and kill the Jinsui Army outside!"
"Artillery, launch flares immediately to find out their location!"
"boom……"
Soon, an explosion sounded above everyone's heads, and the white light produced by the burning flare lasted in the sky for more than ten seconds before disappearing.
"I'm sure they are the Jinsui Army. With light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers, fight back immediately and kill them!" the squad leader who had been staring at the battlefield said with certainty.
"Sir, the Jinsui army attacking us seems to be running away!" a sergeant nearby warned.
Before the squad leader could speak, a communications soldier from the squadron headquarters rushed over.
"The squadron leader ordered that the first squadron attack immediately and kill the Jinsui Army who ambushed us...the second and third squadrons attacked on their own and are outflanking us!"
"Warriors! Kill them!" The squadron leader's order gave the squad leader more confidence, and he waved his command knife and ordered.
Where the Jinsui Army was stationed, gunshots suddenly rang out at the entrance of the town, which also woke up the regimental commander.
As soon as we reached the edge of the station, the second battalion commander came over and said, "Commander, someone is fighting with a kid at the entrance of the town!"
"The sound of gunfire sounded like it was from our people, and the sound of gunfire included the sound of machine gun fire!"
"Order the troops to prepare for battle, just in case!" the regiment leader immediately ordered, then raised his binoculars and stared at the town entrance.
At this moment, he felt very complicated.
The order from his superiors was not to engage in firefights with the Japs, but as a commander, he looked forward to engaging in firefights with the Japs and having a good fight with the Japs on the opposite side!
"Captain, the Japanese are coming towards us!" the second battalion commander continued to remind.
"The troops attacking the Japs must have retreated towards us. The troops are ready to respond! They are all Jinsui troops, and they are also troops fighting the Japs. We can't just ignore them!"
The mood of the Japanese captain is also very complicated.
The orders from superiors were very clear, not to engage in combat with the Jin-Sui Army.
However, the Jinsui army he was chasing in front of him was too cunning and killed at least one-third of his squad. If he allowed them to escape from under his nose, then his role as squad leader would be in vain.
"Captain, the people who attacked us went towards the Jinsui Army station and killed them!" the sergeant next to him reminded.
"Kill over. The squadron leader has an order to kill the Jinsui Army who ambushed us. Keep killing!"
At the Jinsui Army station, the regimental commander's eyes were fixed on the battlefield.
The Japs were getting closer and closer to me, and they kept shooting at me. However, the troops that I had just seen did not appear, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.
"Captain, the Japanese are coming, and there are already casualties in the troops!"
"Counterattack, full-scale counterattack...The Japanese have slashed their knives right to our necks. If we don't fight back, we will be killed. If anything happens, I will be responsible!"
