The anger on the captain's face became even more intense. Just as he was about to call his name, a series of gunshots rang out behind him.
"Da da da... Enemy attack, protect the captain!"
The nervous guards around him immediately rushed over, surrounded the captain and took him behind a big rock.
"Isn't the Eighth Route Army blocking the mountain pass in front of us? Why is there one behind us too!" The captain, who had no place to vent his anger, asked when he saw the deputy captain.
After suffering a series of blows in succession, the captain now has thoughts of murder.
If there was an Eighth Route Army soldier standing in front of him, he would definitely pull out his command knife and chop him alive.
The vice-captain was always following him, and he didn't know why in a hurry.
His face instantly turned red from suppressing his emotions, and he didn't know how to answer.
Fortunately, a squad leader rushed over at this time: "Sir, the guard post we arranged behind us was attacked by the Eighth Route Army. They were equipped with light machine guns. Two sentries at one guard post were killed!"
"How many people are there on the other side?" The captain's face became even more angry and he stared at the second lieutenant and asked.
The second lieutenant shook his head and replied: "By the time I reacted, they had already withdrawn. I didn't see how many of them there were."
"Da da da……"
The captain was about to get angry subconsciously, and another series of gunshots came over, this time on his flank~
"They must have raided another sentry~" the team leader judged with certainty.
Sure enough, in less than two minutes, a second lieutenant rushed over: "Sir, our sentries on the flanks were attacked by the Eighth Route Army, and two people were killed!"
"How many are there?" the captain asked, staring at him with a pair of eyes that could almost breathe fire.
"There are less than ten people, but there must be five or six people!" Fortunately, the second lieutenant team leader knew this and answered quickly.
To everyone's surprise, the captain did not get angry this time, but frowned and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he stared at the deputy captain and asked: "The Eighth Route Army has limited troops. We suffered heavy casualties in the attack just now. It is impossible for them to have no casualties. I guess there are not many of them left. Now so many people suddenly appeared behind us.
Do you think there are any Eighth Route Army soldiers on the mountainside in front of us?"
The vice-captain hesitated for a long time before shaking his head and answering: "I don't know even if I am in a humble position!"
He hesitated and reminded: "The Eighth Route Army is too cunning. Take this place as an example. I originally thought that they would have to defend here and fight us head-on. No one expected that they would set up a machine gun bunker here to kill us.
I can't fight back, so I can only be beaten passively!"
"I'm worried that if they suddenly appear behind us, they might have some conspiracy that we don't know about!"
The captain closed his mouth again and continued to frown, lost in thought.
"Da da da……"
He didn't react until a series of gunshots rang out from his right wing, waking him up from his reverie.
Then he answered unexpectedly: "If you don't know, let's give it a try. Once we try, we will understand!"
The vice-captain instantly understood his commander's inner thoughts.
Facing the failure just now, he was still unwilling to accept it. As long as there was a chance, he wanted to try again.
He also understands the difficulties the captain is facing now
As the captain of the battalion, he led a team into the mountains to encircle and suppress a group of wounded Eighth Route Army soldiers and guards. Not only did he fail to kill them, but he himself suffered heavy casualties.
If he doesn't have any military exploits to show for it, even if he leaves the mountain at his feet alive, he won't be able to escape punishment from his superiors, and he might not even be able to keep his position as captain.
Therefore, whether it is for his own future or for honor, he will do everything possible to kill the Eighth Route Army blocking the mountainside, kill the wounded Eighth Route Army hiding behind the mountain pass, and withdraw from the forest with a little dignity.
The vice-captain vaguely felt that something was wrong here, and something big might happen.
But the firm expression on the captain's face made him give up the idea of giving advice.
If he is not good enough, he will misunderstand that he is spying on the position of his battalion commander, and deliberately prevents him from killing the wounded soldiers of the Eighth Route Army. He will be punished when he returns, so that he can make way for his promotion to battalion captain.
The deputy captain's silence was taken as acquiescence by the captain, which made him more confident in his own judgment and made a decision on the spot.
"Then send another small team up to take a look. Once the Eighth Route Army on the mountain has not retreated, we will retreat immediately, then get out of the mountain and leave here!"
Chen Bing was sitting in the bunker, resting and replenishing the large amount of energy he had consumed in the battle.
The recruit, who was lying in the shooting hole and staring at the Japanese, suddenly shouted.
"Squad leader, the Japs are attacking again, here comes an infantry squad!"
"The platoon leader guessed correctly again. These little devils are really going to kill us before they can get back to us. They just left like this if they were unwilling to do so!"
Chen Bing got up from the ground after a while, lay down at the shooting hole and began to observe the enemy's situation.
"You are right, they are a small group of Japanese soldiers!" Chen Bing affirmed.
Then he stared at the two recruits next to him and asked: "How are you? After the battle just now, do you two have itchy hands? Do you want to fight the Japanese with me?"
"Of course!" the two recruits replied without thinking.
Although they had never fired machine guns, they had all witnessed the battle just now, and they could definitely describe it as passionate.
As a man of flesh and blood, even if he is just a new soldier, he still longs to be on the battlefield and kill a few little Japs with a machine gun.
"Then let's go together!" Chen Bing made a decisive decision.
"We still have seven crooked guns here, all of them are good. Let's start loading bullets now. All of them are loaded with bullets. I will use three guns, and you two will use two guns each. You will do what I say for a while. Listen.
I ordered you to shoot again in the future!"
"The Japanese attacking force only has more than 40 people. If we shoot with three crooked guns at a time, even if we can't kill them, it shouldn't be a problem to repel them with heavy damage!"
All seven machine guns were loaded with bullets and mounted to the firing ports. More than forty Japanese soldiers had already reached a position less than fifty meters away from the position.
Chen Bing also began to issue orders.
"Hold the gun in your right hand and put the butt against your shoulder to ensure that the machine gun is stable and motionless when shooting!"
"Load the machine gun with your left hand, then press the pressure plate hard, aim at the Japanese soldier's chest, and wait for my order to directly fire at the enemy in parallel. The muzzle cannot jump up and down. You must press the machine gun and keep it stable!"
Seeing the two recruits setting up their machine guns and getting ready to shoot, Chen Bing quickly turned his attention to the front of the position.
In order to severely injure these Japanese soldiers and increase the shooting accuracy of the two recruits, Chen Bing held back and refrained from taking action.
It wasn't until the Japanese rushed thirty meters away and someone had already taken out a grenade that Chen Bing gave the order.
"Shoot ~ da da da ~"
The moment the command was issued, he pulled the trigger hard with his right index finger, and the crooked handle against his shoulder immediately made a firing sound that was very familiar to him.
