"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowww...", oh, oh..." As soon as he heard the ear-piercing scream of the cannonballs streaking across the sky, the Major's face, which had just ignited a glimmer of hope, instantly turned pale.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Before he could say anything, explosions sounded all around, and then a lieutenant stumbled over.
"Sir, the enemy's artillery fire was too fierce. The grenade launchers suffered heavy losses. Many grenade launchers were blown up!"
"Continue to counterattack and spread out the remaining grenade launchers. Only the grenades fired from the grenade launchers can prevent the enemy from continuing to dig trenches!" the major ordered with gritted teeth.
Soon, the major, who had always bullied the Chinese army with artillery fire on the battlefield, tasted the feeling of being bullied by artillery fire for the first time.
In less than two minutes, the lieutenant just stumbled over again, his face covered with gunpowder smoke, and his arm still had obvious marks of being injured by a shell. The bright red blood had stained the bandage on his arm red, and there were still more wounds.
Blood seeped through the bandage!
Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, the lieutenant's face had no color at all and was very pale.
But after seeing the major, he forgot about the pain and reported: "Sir, the enemy's artillery fire is too fierce. Moreover, they also concentrated a large number of grenade launchers to counterattack us. There are now less than five grenade launchers out of more than twenty.
The door is closed, sir, please make your decision early!"
"Bagh Ya Road, how can it be so fast!" The shocked Major shouted with a look of reluctance.
"Sir, what should we do next?" With the grenade out of use, everyone lost hope and chased after the major.
"Counterattack, we can counterattack, directly send troops to counterattack, and destroy the Eighth Route Army who are digging trenches! Go and execute it immediately, dispatch a small team, bring more grenades, go out immediately, and eliminate the enemies outside!" At this time, the equally anxious Major
His speech was already a bit incoherent.
Although the subordinates next to him believed that this method was not feasible, they finally chose to implement it in the face of the major's anger.
Dozens of Japanese soldiers, carrying rifles and grenades hanging on their waists, slowly came over from the mine.
"Click, click, click...boom, bang, bang..." But just when they had just passed the three machine gun bunkers and were about to attack forward, intensive gunfire suddenly sounded from the Eighth Route Army position. Then the major saw the soldiers rushing at the front.
They fell to the ground one after another.
Not to mention, more than a dozen artillery shells fell from the sky and hit them among them. The shells exploded and many Japanese soldiers were directly overturned or thrown high into the air.
Soon, these devils were all dead.
An infantry squad was completely wiped out without even getting past three machine gun bunkers.
Having exhausted all means, the Japanese army could only watch helplessly as the three trenches continued to extend towards the three machine gun bunkers.
Forty meters, thirty meters, twenty meters...
At this moment, the reinforcements from the county seat, consisting of two infantry squadrons, one regiment of the Imperial Army, plus artillery and heavy machine gun squads, nearly 1,500 days of puppet troops, marched all the way and broke into Cheng Xiao's house.
The ambush ring she prepared.
"Bang!" With a signal flare rising to the dragon, the ambush started.
The two regiments were equipped with eighteen heavy machine guns and dozens of light machine guns. They fired at the same time, creating dozens of crossfires. They were like death scythes, specifically staring at the Japanese and reaping their lives.
In just a few seconds, more than half of the more than 400 Japanese troops were lost.
The political commissar who participated in this kind of battle for the first time was directly frightened by the powerful firepower exposed by the independent brigade, and then subconsciously wanted to order the troops to charge.
"Political Commissar, wait a minute! There are still a lot of Japs, and we have too many new soldiers. If we charge forward now, the casualties will be too great!" Zhang Yunshan, commander of the Second Regiment, stopped the political commissar who wanted to charge.
Then he commanded the troops and continued to fight against the Japanese regardless of the consumption of bullets.
The mortars in the regiment were not idle either, and kept dropping shells among the Japanese.
At this time, even if the Japanese who were still alive were lying on the ground, their numbers continued to decrease.
After another five minutes, when there were not many of the more than 400 Japanese soldiers left, without Zhang Yunshan's orders, the loud sound of the charge horn directly resounded throughout the battlefield.
The ensuing battle went very smoothly. Among the more than a thousand Imperial Army troops, more than 300 were killed and wounded in the ambush. The remaining 700 people saw that all the Japanese troops they were loyal to had died.
Seeing the Eighth Route Army rushing towards them like wolves and tigers, they had no idea of resistance and simply raised their hands to surrender.
Because the ambush ended too quickly, and the Japanese army suffered a devastating blow from the beginning, and the radio operator was also killed. Neither the county town nor Ono, who was trapped in the copper mine, knew that the reinforcements had disappeared.
"Old regiment commander and brigade commander telegraphed that the Japanese and puppet reinforcements have been completed. They fought a very beautiful ambush with very few casualties!" Zeng Quan happily rushed to Wang Ping's side and reported.
"That's right, it's our turn to take over the copper mine next!" Wang Ping said with confidence as he stared at the three trenches in front of him that almost extended into the bunker.
It is unrealistic to dig trenches directly under the bunker.
The Japs guarding the bunker were not fools. Even if the bullets fired from the machine guns did not threaten the soldiers hiding in the trenches, they could still throw grenades through the firing holes.
Therefore, when the three trenches were still nearly ten meters away from the bunker, they could no longer extend forward.
"Old commander, I will immediately organize a blaster attack. With only ten meters left to attack, we can rush to the bunker and blow it up even if we risk our lives!" Zeng Quan suggested immediately.
Wang Ping refused without hesitation: "Old Zeng, you have to remember that you are now the regiment commander, not the company commander. The lives of the soldiers are also lives. Don't always think about desperate efforts, but think about solutions and reduce the risk of death."
Ways to inflict casualties on soldiers!”
"I think there is a forest nearby. It should be no problem to find a ten-meter-long slender tree trunk, tie an explosive package to one end, and easily push the explosive package to the edge of the bunker, and then blow up the bunker. In three hours we
I can afford to wait, I don’t care if I have to wait another ten or twenty minutes!”
"Boom, boom, boom..." Ten minutes later, with three violent explosions, the three machine gun bunkers were instantly blown into a pile of ruins.
At the last moment, dozens of Japanese soldiers guarding the bunker realized the danger, and then subconsciously got out of the bunker in an attempt to escape.
However, the power of the explosive pack is too great.
The bunker was instantly blown into ruins. The Japanese who had just escaped from the bunker were directly overturned by the powerful air wave, and then rubble like scattered flowers fell from the sky, directly killing and injuring them!
"Comrades, charge with me, fight in, and destroy the little devils!" The commander of the first battalion lying at the front waved his hand and was the first to climb out of the trench, then raised his pistol and rushed forward.
The remaining battalion of more than 300 people rushed towards the mine like crazy.
The Japanese Major had confirmed more than an hour ago that the bunker could not hold the bomb.
So, he led his people to retreat behind the bunker and built a temporary defense line using the mountains of ore in the mine, intending to continue to block the Eighth Route Army's attack.
Seeing hundreds of Eighth Route Army troops crossing the bunker that had been blown into ruins, the major's gloomy face revealed a very ferocious look.
Holding the command knife tightly, he squatted behind the defense line, pointed the blade in the direction of the first battalion, and shouted loudly.
"Shoot, kill them all!"
