"Fire!" Li Hao ordered calmly while looking at the battlefield.
"Dong dong dong..."
An anti-aircraft machine gun three meters away roared simultaneously.
Flames shot out from the thick barrel, which was two feet long.
The finger-thick bullets were wrapped in flames and flew out of the barrel, flying in a fan shape toward the little Japs outside the level.
"Chichi..." A bullet passed through the devil's body easily, and a blood hole as thick as a bowl was instantly punched out in his chest.
Blood and internal organs were suddenly shattered by the bullets and spurted out from the wounds like a fountain, looking very bloody.
The bullet did not stop after penetrating the body, but continued to fly forward, hitting the second Japanese soldier's thigh more than ten meters later.
"idiot……"
Amidst the painful screams, the thigh was broken directly from the root.
The Japs who lost one of their legs instantly fell to the ground and lay on the ground holding the bloody broken leg, screaming and squirming in great pain.
Until then, the anti-aircraft machine gun bullets still did not stop, flying forward with residual power, and finally hit the third Japanese soldier on the shoulder.
The shoulder blade was instantly shattered, and a large piece of flesh was cut off by the bullet, revealing white bones and bright red flesh...
This is just the powerful power of a heavy machine gun bullet bursting into the crowd.
At least a hundred rounds of large-caliber bullets were fired at the same time, flying out of the level from different locations and flying towards the Japanese attacking troops...
Standing in the offensive position, the captain couldn't see clearly the poisonous gas-filled checkpoint. He could only see the attacking troops being swept to the ground in pieces. He heard the sound of machine gun fire, rifle shooting, and a kind of sound all over the checkpoint.
It's even duller, and I don't know what kind of weapon is firing the sound...
My heart was shaking, and I couldn't figure out which part of the attack just now went wrong.
The counterattack firepower on the checkpoint was too dense. Before the commander could understand the problem, more than half of the infantry squadron responsible for the attack had been killed.
All the living people were blocked outside the level and were used as living targets, unable to take a step forward.
The commander of the regiment quickly ordered: "Retreat, all attacking troops are withdrawn."
"We must understand why the Eighth Route Army was still able to fight after the gas bomb attack, otherwise it would be impossible for us to kill their arsenal with just a few people like us."
The anti-aircraft machine gun has a very long range. After the Japanese retreated, the bullets flew behind them and they did not stop shooting until the Japanese retreated five or six hundred meters away.
At this time, there were less than 20 people left in the attacking force of more than 100 people, and all the others fell on the offensive.
The chief of staff of the wing was also heartbroken when he saw this scene. He frowned and asked: "Sir, you can only fight in poisonous gas by wearing a gas mask. Is it possible that the Eighth Route Army in the checkpoint is also equipped with gas masks?"
"That's definitely the case!" The captain nodded and thought about his answer.
"The garrison regiment destroyed a large number of imperial troops, and it is not ruled out that they seized some gas masks on the battlefield."
"Since they already know that we have poisonous gas bombs, they will definitely collect gas masks in advance to equip the troops and protect the arsenal."
Seeing that the chief of staff's expression became more and more solemn, the captain changed the topic and looked at him to comfort him: "You don't have to worry too much."
"Although gas masks are standard equipment for the imperial army, because the Chinese army does not have poison gas bombs, the troops are rarely issued gas masks when fighting in China. It is not that easy for the garrison to seize them."
"Unless the imperial army is equipped with poison gas bombs during combat, ordinary soldiers will be issued poison gas masks."
"Besides, the Imperial Army had the habit of destroying equipment before it was wiped out, so the garrison definitely doesn't have many gas masks in hand."
"As long as we kill the Eighth Route Army soldiers wearing gas masks in the level, when we attack with gas bombs, they can only be passively beaten and can't do anything to us."
The chief of staff looked much better and thought about the proposal: "We can call the aviation force to come over for support."
"No matter how strong the level is, it cannot withstand an aerial bomb attack."
"Destroy the checkpoint in front, and the Eighth Route Army hiding inside will be killed, and the only gas mask of the garrison will be destroyed."
The captain glanced at his watch first, then shook his head and replied: "It's too slow, we can't afford it."
"The Eighth Route Army is very smart and may not wait inside the checkpoint for us to blow up."
"And after our rescue telegram is sent out, it needs to be approved by all levels before the superiors can issue the order to the airport. The plane takes off and finds us. The whole process takes at least an hour and a half."
"It's two o'clock in the afternoon now. It will be almost four o'clock when the plane comes to help us win the checkpoint."
"The rush march from here to the last checkpoint takes two hours, exactly at six o'clock."
"The plane had already returned by then, and there was no condition to continue to reinforce us."
"If the Eighth Route Army saw some clues before the plane bombed, withdrew its troops in advance and sent the gas masks to the third checkpoint, we would have no chance to break through the third checkpoint and find the garrison arsenal before dark."
"The troops camped and rested under the eyes of the Eighth Route Army. There were mountains all around. The Eighth Route Army prepared gas masks. If they launch another night attack, even with poisonous gas bombs, we will not be able to defeat them easily."
"The casualties were heavy and the loss of troops is certain."
"By then, the superiority in troops and firepower will definitely return to the garrison."
"Even if there are aircraft reinforcements after dawn, the chance of us destroying the arsenal again is very small."
"Maybe you'll get stuck here, lose your wife and lose your troops."
The chief of staff was dumbfounded by what the commander said.
He knew very well that there was only a small chance that the next attack would develop according to the co-captain's analysis.
But I have to admit that if the next battle is fought like this, there is a high probability that the attacking troops will suffer a devastating blow.
The commando's mission is to destroy the garrison's arsenal. It would be a big loss if they die before they leave.
Therefore, everyone must find ways to avoid all possible accidents and ensure that the troops can destroy the arsenal and complete the mission.
When the time comes for the troops to take risks, it won't matter even if the whole army is destroyed.
Looking at the commander's face with admiration, he said: "Sir, you are wise. It is too dangerous for the troops to camp in the mountains. There are too many variables."
"Only by finding the arsenal before dark and destroying it can we avoid accidents."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the wing commander and asked: "Calling for air support takes too much time. We can only rely on ourselves."
"I immediately ordered the artillery to concentrate all artillery to attack the checkpoint."
"After firing ordinary artillery shells, use poison gas bombs. The defenders inside will be severely damaged."
The captain agreed: "That's what it means, but the method of attack needs to be changed. Ordinary artillery shells and poison gas bombs are fired at the same time."
"When the Eighth Route Army was avoiding artillery fire, the gas masks they wore on their heads would definitely be affected. They would inevitably breathe poisonous gas, and then they would be doomed."
The chief of staff quickly accepted the order: "I will make arrangements now and try to win the level within half an hour."
