Chapter seven hundred and forty-eight devils in a hurry
"Sir, we will reach the Eighth Route Army station in more than an hour. Although the Eighth Route Army made constant sneak attacks along the way, they were all blocked by the special forces. The main force suffered almost no casualties!" the adjutant walking beside Major Ida said.
He said excitedly and happily.
"It's almost daybreak. In more than half an hour, we can call for aviation support. By then, we won't be afraid of any Eighth Route Army sneak attacks or ambushes!" Major Ida was also very happy, and his tense nerves instantly relaxed.
Come down.
At this moment, the team that was marching suddenly stopped.
"Sir, there is an Eighth Route Army blocking position ahead, and there are troops defending it. The position seems to have been newly dug!" A subordinate hurried over and reported.
They were attacked by Japanese soldiers along the way. Although there were no casualties, the officers under their command were still full of anger and had nowhere to vent their anger.
Now I suddenly heard that the Eighth Route Army was blocking the road ahead and wanted to fight a positional battle with me. The eyes of several subordinates seemed to have agreed upon it. They shot out two rays of light at the same time, and then stared at Major Ida with an expression of eagerness to try.
Major Ida was also very excited. There was an Eighth Route Army blocking position in front of him, which meant that he had come to the right place this time.
If the Eighth Route Army was not stationed in front of us, with the Eighth Route Army's fighting style of fighting if it can be defeated and running if it can't be defeated, we would definitely not fight against ourselves here and engage in positional warfare.
"We must quickly break through the Eighth Route Army's interception and fight to their base!" Major Ida decided with excitement after thinking about all this.
"Tubal Road has temporarily built a blocking position here to block us and buy time for their main force to move. The main force of the Eighth Route Army that we have been looking for for a long time is right in front, otherwise they will never fight a positional battle with us!"
"The first squadron attacks, artillery, heavy machine gun squad, fire cover, and strives to break through their blocking position with one attack!"
The adjutant reminded in a low voice: "Sir, do you want a company from the Imperial Association Army to join us in the fight?"
"Let the Imperial Army advance to the front and let our Imperial Army stay behind. We will definitely be able to reduce a lot of casualties!"
The eyes of several subordinates lit up, showing expressions of approval.
In their view, the reason why the Imperial Army raised so many Imperial Army soldiers was to use them as cannon fodder.
As long as they can reduce the casualties of the Imperial Army, it doesn't matter to them how much the Imperial Alliance Army loses.
However, what disappointed and confused them was that Major Ida refused.
"Need not!"
"What we need most now is time. The main force of the Eighth Route Army may be transferred at any time and slip away from our eyes! It's not that you don't know the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Association Army, and they are greedy for life and fear of death. If we are not in a hurry, I will definitely use them. But
Now we are in a hurry, so we can only use them without them and rely on our own warriors!"
Ma Dongyun is guarding here with more than 40 soldiers from four companies equipped with rifles.
Compared with the worries of his subordinates and the panic among people, he was not worried at all.
Because, I am not defending here, but creating the best shooting opportunity for the three heavy machine guns behind me.
Except for Ma Dongyun, no one knew that there were three heavy machine guns on the top of the mountain behind them, overlooking the entire battlefield from a high position.
"Company commander, the Japanese have begun to attack!" the subordinate lying next to Ma Dongyun reminded.
"Da da da..." As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of machine gun fire sounded at the foot of the mountain.
The three heavy machine guns equipped by the Japs fired bullets as if they were free, close to the edge of the trench and into the soil behind everyone, causing the dust in the trench to fly.
"The enemy's firepower was so intense that we didn't even have a chance to raise our heads!" The two soldiers didn't believe in evil and wanted to look up at the situation outside the trench. However, as soon as their heads were exposed, the bullets whizzing over came.
Blast their heads off, and they will die no more. The faces of the row leader next to him suddenly became solemn, and they frowned and shouted.
Ma Dongyun answered very definitely: "No problem, everyone hides in the trench, don't show your head, prepare the grenade, we will use the grenade to greet them!"
Soon, a small group of Japs set off, and three light machine guns also joined the battle, as well as three grenade launchers.
Grenades continued to hit the trenches, blowing away the soldiers hiding in the trenches.
The more than 100-meter-long trench was enveloped in smoke in less than a minute.
"Warriors, the Eighth Route Army is about to be blown up by us. Come with me... rush into the Eighth Route Army's position and kill them!" The Japanese squad leader who accompanied the attacking team shouted loudly, waving a command knife in one hand and a pistol in the other.
"Kill me!" Dozens of Japanese soldiers, holding rifles and bending their waists, seized the opportunity and rushed forward.
Ma Dongyun kept staring at the Japanese who were getting closer and closer in front of the position.
Forty or fifty Japs are not worth the three heavy machine guns on the top of the mountain. If you want to create better shooting opportunities for the three heavy machine guns, you must repel the Japs in front of you and force more Japs to attack you.
Then stop them in front of the position and gather them together.
He frowned and ordered: "Prepare grenades, three grenades per person, throw them out in the shortest possible time!"
After the order was given, Ma Dongyun himself took out a grenade, pulled out the fuse, and then threw it out of the trench.
Within ten seconds, more than a hundred grenades were thrown at the Japanese.
With the advantage of his commanding position, Ma Dongyun could easily smash the grenade into the group of Japs. However, the grenade held by the Japs was unable to do this. In the end, he could only watch the grenade being smashed down.
"Take cover, get down!" The Japanese team leader did not expect that there were so many enemies hiding in the trenches. He was shocked and ordered immediately.
The Japanese grenadier who provided cover fire also reacted very quickly and fired grenades into the trench as fast as he could.
Most of the soldiers in the Second Battalion were recruits, but these recruits only meant that they had joined the Eighth Route Army for a short time, and did not mean that they had been soldiers fighting against the Japanese.
In terms of combat experience, many of them have more experience than company commander Ma Dongyun.
Therefore, just because the Japanese soldiers were lying on the ground did not prevent these veterans from using grenades to kill them.
Hold the grenade in your hand for three seconds, then throw it out and let the grenade explode in the air.
You must know that these grenades equipped by the New Regiment are not homemade grenades produced by some small arsenals of the Eighth Route Army. They have a small amount of powder and poor quality of the projectile. They split into two halves when they explode. The battlefield is completely frightening.
These grenades were either Jin-made grenades captured from the puppet troops or Northeast-made grenades transported by the Japanese from the Northeast. They were powerful and had a sufficient number of fragments.
A grenade exploded in the air, and more than ten pieces of fragments were scattered like flowers, piercing the Japanese lying on the ground at a very fast speed.
More than a hundred grenades were thrown down, either exploding in panic or exploding on the ground. Dozens of Japanese soldiers were directly bombed and suffered heavy casualties, and then had to retreat.
"Bageya Road, we still underestimated the enemy. I didn't expect that there were so many Eighth Route Army troops hiding in the trenches!" Looking at the dozen or so soldiers retreating in embarrassment on the battlefield, Major Ida was very angry, clenching his fists, as if he was angry.
The lion cursed loudly.
Then he ordered: "Artillery, artillery, go up and blow up all the Eighth Route Army troops in the trenches!"
"All the heavy machine guns will go up to provide fire cover. The first squadron will charge again. We must rush over."
