Ono hid a total of more than 600 Japanese troops on the top of the mountain. More than 100 people were killed on the top of the mountain. The Japanese army counterattacked on the top of the mountain and killed and injured more than 100 people. In the passive beating just now, nearly 200 people were killed and injured. Therefore, the raid started from
From the beginning to now, in less than half an hour, out of the more than 600 Japanese troops, there are less than 200 left, and they are still firing in the direction of the third line of defense like a lost dog.
Because the retreat goals of the Japanese troops in the four directions were the same, the retreat process was difficult, and the defeated troops not only were not beaten by the Eighth Route Army who were chasing them behind, but became smaller and smaller. Instead, they gathered more and more.
Of course, the Second Battalion also gathered more and more people.
The number of machine guns quickly increased from the four initially equipped by the guard platoon to twelve.
There were so many machine guns lined up, all shooting in the direction of the Japanese.
At the beginning, the retreating Japanese soldiers could maintain their formation. However, as more and more soldiers were killed by bullets from behind, the Japanese army became increasingly uneasy about being still alive.
In order to survive, they rushed to the third line of defense.
However, no matter how they rushed, someone always fell to the end and was beaten into pieces by the flying bullets.
"Baga, retreat quickly, the defense line is almost here!" A squadron leader was retreating under the protection of guards, and the three machine guns behind him were directly staring at him. After seeing that there were not many guards left around him, he shouted anxiously.
The other squadron leader was obviously much more sensible. He frowned and shouted: "Someone must stay behind to block the attack, otherwise so many of us will not be able to withdraw from the defense line. Even if we withdraw, the Eighth Route Army will follow us into the position!"
"Who takes the initiative to stay and stop the Eighth Route Army's pursuers!"
"I'll stay!" Immediately, two squad leaders stood up.
The squadron leader was very happy at first, but after a few seconds, his face turned gloomy again.
Because the retreat had turned into a rout invisibly, the entire army structure was in chaos.
The two squad captains originally had forty or fifty subordinates, but due to the chaos in the formation, the soldiers could not find the generals, and the generals could not find the soldiers. In the end, there were less than thirty people left with the squad captains.
Perhaps knowing that they could not escape death, they followed their squad leaders without any hesitation. They lay down on the ground, raised their rifles and began to fight back. Four Type 96 light machine guns were also set up, pointing at the approaching Eighth Route Army.
If the enemy pursues you, embrace the fire.
"You damn little Japs, you still dare to stay and rear. Since you want to die early, I will help you. Comrades, kill them!" After several of his subordinates were killed and wounded by the Japs' sudden counterattack, the Second Company Commander directly led him
Fury ordered.
Chasing the Japanese soldiers, they used Czech-made light machine guns. Two machine guns were used to keep an eye on the Japanese soldiers, and one machine gun was used to shoot them.
Gunshots rang out, and the machine guns left behind by the Japanese to block the attack immediately misfired.
No matter how hard the machine gunner next to him tried to get close to the machine gun, took over the machine gun and continued shooting, he could not escape the crazy fire of the Czech-made machine gun, and he could not avoid the fate of being beaten into a sieve.
"Baga, the enemy's firepower is too fierce, we can't even raise our head and shoot!" A Japanese squad leader who was left behind shouted with an aggrieved look on his face.
"We must stop the Eighth Route Army at all costs, shoot, and use the corpses of the warriors as bunkers to shoot!" Another squad leader ordered with a murderous look on his face.
The whole person looked like a gambler who had gone crazy. He stared with a pair of red eyes, raised his command knife, and screamed in the direction where the second battalion was charging.
A dozen Japs who were still alive immediately climbed behind the corpse, put their guns on the corpse and shot.
In an instant, five or six more soldiers from the second battalion died.
"Kill that Japanese officer!" the second company platoon leader followed the machine gunner. Seeing the Japanese squad leader being so arrogant, he directly patted the machine gunner next to him on the shoulder and ordered.
Two Czech-made guns fired at the same time, and the whizzing bullets formed an airtight net of bullets around the squad leader.
"Ah... Baga!" The little devil only had time to curse before the bullets smashed him into pieces and then he fell to the ground.
As soon as the squad leader died, the morale of the remaining Japanese soldiers immediately dropped.
Several Czech-made guns took the opportunity to open fire, killing several more Japanese.
By this time, they had rushed to less than thirty meters away from the Japanese.
The second company commander frowned and ordered: "The machine gunners continue to shoot and use firepower to suppress the remaining Japs. Others prepare grenades and kill them!"
A corpse can block incoming bullets, but it cannot block grenades falling from the sky and grenade fragments flying in all directions.
"Boom, boom, boom!" As soon as the violent explosion sounded, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers died.
"It's like a mantis trying to stop us! It's so self-righteous to try to stop us with this small force!" Looking at the corpse of the Japanese at his feet, the second company commander did not hesitate to despise Dan.
Then he continued to order to the subordinates around him: "Comrades, continue to charge, follow the Japanese troops, take back our third line of defense, and kill them all!"
At this time, there were less than a hundred Japanese alive in front of the Second Battalion.
More importantly, under the frenzied pursuit of the Second Battalion behind them, people continued to be beaten to death and then fell down on the way to escape.
Although the third line of defense of the Independent Regiment had been razed to the ground by Japanese bombers and mountain artillery, the puppet troops still used bomb craters to build a relatively solid line of defense for more than 400 days.
But unfortunately, the defense line is facing the fourth line of defense of the Independent Regiment, which is the direction where the guard company is currently lurking.
As for the direction of the top of the mountain where the defeated troops had fled, only one platoon was deployed for symbolic defense.
After the gunshots and explosions sounded on the top of the mountain, they didn't take it seriously at first.
More than 600 imperial troops were stationed on the top of the mountain, and they were in a commanding position.
Even if the Eighth Route Army wanted to sneak attack on the top of the mountain, with the elite combat power of more than 600 imperial troops, it would be able to defend the top of the mountain and inflict heavy damage on the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack troops. It is even possible to counterattack the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack troops.
However, as time passed, the sound of gunfire from the top of the mountain showed no signs of weakening.
The Japanese squad leader stationed here gradually felt something was wrong.
Just when he was about to send troops to conduct reconnaissance at the top of the mountain, a scene he would never forget appeared.
Dozens of imperial soldiers, like lost dogs, escaped from the woods and ran towards their location.
Immediately afterwards, more and more imperial troops escaped from the forest and came into view.
After nearly two hundred imperial troops escaped from the woods, the Eighth Route Army appeared.
Although it was not very clear in the darkness, the light machine gun that kept spitting flames from its muzzle clearly told the squad leader that the Eighth Route Army chasing the imperial army must be very powerful!
