Li Wen replied solemnly: "Commander, the Japanese are heavily guarded. It is very difficult to kill the engineers clearing mines in front of them under their heavy guard. Maybe the soldiers who sneak attacked will be left on the battlefield and will not be able to retreat~"
"No, compared with the main force of the Japs, the forward troops are much easier to fight. After all, there are only more than two hundred cavalry guarding both sides of the road, and these demining engineers are all scattered on the nearly 500-meter-long road in front of the forward. As long as you grasp the
If we have the opportunity, we can kill more than one-third of their demining engineers at once, and the Japanese will definitely take the engineers back!"
"Stop demining..." Li Wen asked.
"No..." Wang Ping shook his head and replied.
"The Japanese were too cautious, and we blew up five tanks in one night. You know, their entire division only had twenty tanks, and a quarter of them were bombed in one night. This loss is really serious for them.
It’s too big!”
"If I were the commander of the Japanese division, I would definitely order the engineers to continue clearing mines instead of taking risks with the few tanks left in my hands!"
Li Wen was very confused and asked: "Since the Japanese will not give up mine clearance... Captain, it is useless for us to take such a big risk to sneak attack on them... In this case, it is better not to fight this battle!"
Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "Of course it works!"
"When I attack their engineers, I don't mean to make the little devils give up mine clearing, but to ask the little devils to place mine clearing engineers behind their forward troops, even behind the engineering regiment~"
"The Japs are clearing mines to protect their limited tanks... Clearing mines behind the vanguard or engineering units can still protect their tanks!"
"As long as they arrange the mine clearing engineers behind the engineering unit, our goal will be achieved!"
It was eleven o'clock in the morning, less than an hour left before the Japanese took their lunch break.
After nearly four hours of driving, even the Japanese soldiers, who were well-trained elites, were still a little out of breath, let alone the cavalry who had been running back and forth on both sides of the road.
"The opportunity has come..." Wang Ping, who had been following the Japs, made a decision with his eyes lit up.
"There has been no attack all morning, and the Japanese engineers did not sweep a single mine. Coupled with fatigue, the Japanese's vigilance has been reduced to the lowest level, especially the minesweeping engineers at the front. The cavalry protecting them has been separated from two squadrons.
Reduced to a small team..."
"The nearly 500-meter-long road, with more than 30 cavalry patrolling and guarding on both sides, is definitely full of loopholes!"
"Captain...how to fight..." This place was less than five kilometers away from the minefield deployed by the engineer company. Li Wen couldn't wait any longer and asked quickly.
"Gather all snipers and assaulters, lurk near the highway, and launch a sudden attack. After ten seconds, no matter how many engineers are eliminated, retreat unconditionally!" Wang Ping ordered with a serious look on his face.
"The remaining firemen and reconnaissance platoon lurked five hundred meters behind the sneak attack troops to cover the retreat of the snipers and assaulters..."
"One thing to remember is that whether it is a sneak attack force or a covering force, it must be deployed as dispersed as possible. There are little Japanese planes above us, and only by dispersing can their planes not find their bombing targets!"
After several hours of galloping, all the Japanese cavalrymen were exhausted, especially their buttocks and inner thighs, which had been rubbed red for a long time. They wished they could stop now, relax and lie down on the ground, and have a good rest.
Under this situation, they no longer had the passion they had two hours ago. They were just riding on war horses, guarding each other on both sides of the road in cavalry detachments.
The snipers and assaulters of the direct team who were good at hiding easily evaded the Japanese cavalry detachment at the forefront.
Then two engineering units appeared on the road in front of them.
Carrying a mine detector on his back, he concentrated on sweeping mines on the ground to make sure there were no mines threatening his life.
"Da da da... bang bang bang..."
Suddenly, a burst of gunfire broke the silent atmosphere of the battlefield.
Submachine guns, sniper rifles, and automatic pistols fired hundreds of bullets onto the road in just ten seconds.
The engineers were so focused that when the gunfire ended, many people still didn't react.
The two engineering detachments at the front, and more than twenty Japanese engineers, all fell on the road and were beaten into sieves. Blood was pouring out from the holes all over their bodies. It was particularly bloody and tragic.
The Japs cavalry reacted very quickly. Even though they were very tired, the sound of gunshots quickly tightened their relaxed mood.
Subconsciously, the horse turned around, drew his saber, and rushed towards the place where the gunshot had been fired.
"The reaction speed of the Japanese cavalry is too fast!" Li Wen sighed with his mouth open and a look of shock on his face.
Wang Ping agreed with a stern face: "This is the reason why I don't want the troops to sneak attack them during the day... Fortunately, there are only two detachments of little Japanese cavalry around the commando team, and the firepower of the first fireman and the reconnaissance platoon can still withstand it."
.If there are two small groups of Japanese cavalry around them, rushing towards us from all directions, even if we have a company here, they can't withstand it..."
"If we cannot withstand these cavalry, or are dragged here by them, we will definitely be greeted by a devastating blow from the main force of the Japs, or even an air strike!" About twenty Japs cavalry, holding carbines and sabers,
, when they rushed towards the commandos desperately, nearly twenty commandos and snipers had already begun to retreat.
The cavalry's assault speed was so fast that the pursuit distance was shortened to fifty meters in the blink of an eye.
"Pa bang bang..."
Then these cavalrymen raised their horse rifles and fired decisively.
More than a dozen bullets roared in, and the commando at the rear was shot in the back and fell to the ground with a plop.
The commando next to him stopped subconsciously and wanted to carry him with him to retreat, but the injured commando refused.
He planned to stay and cover, risking his own life to buy a few more seconds for his comrades.
After turning around with great difficulty, he held the submachine gun hanging on his chest in his hand, pulled the bolt, and pulled the trigger at the Japanese cavalry charging towards him!
"Da da da……"
Gunshots rang out, and the two Japanese cavalrymen in front fell to the ground, screaming in agony along with their horses.
Of course, the intensive gunfire also exposed the position of the assaulter, and several cavalrymen rushed over from different directions.
From a distance of tens of meters, it only took them a few seconds to rush over.
The saber was raised high, and then struck down hard, and the continuous sound of gunfire was suddenly interrupted.
"boom……"
Just when everyone thought that the commando had been killed, a fireball mixed with black smoke suddenly rose from his position, and then there was a violent explosion.
There is no doubt that this was the grenade the commando detonated before he died.
While not letting himself fall into the hands of the Japs, the violent explosion also killed the Japs who killed him, knocking him off his horse!
