On a high ground one kilometer away from the battlefield, a team of more than a hundred people was lurking here to catch their breath.
Marching continuously for several hours, the troops were physically exhausted.
If you go into battle immediately, even if you win, your troops will suffer heavy casualties due to lack of physical strength.
"Tell comrades to take the time to rest and eat some solid food. I will only give you ten minutes!" Li Hao ordered with a stern face.
Then he ordered several platoon leaders: "Follow me, observe the enemy's situation, and discuss how to fight!"
Climbing to the high ground, the garrison platoon was able to repel the second Japanese attack.
Platoon commander Jiang Tianhong was lying next to Li Hao. As soon as the new round of Japanese shelling began, he couldn't help but remind him: "Company commander, the casualties of the defending platoon must be huge!"
"Just now there were only two machine guns firing, and now the Japanese are firing again. I'm worried that these two machine guns will also be killed!"
"It is recommended that the troops immediately launch an attack from behind the Japs, reinforce the garrison platoon, and force the Japs to retreat!"
Several platoon leaders had expressions of approval on their faces, and then looked at Li Hao and waited for orders.
"You all underestimated Zhang Yun who was preparing the platoon!" Li Hao gave a surprising reply and did not agree to Jiang Tianhong's proposal!
Then he looked at everyone and asked: "The two machine guns just now were in the bunker, right? Otherwise, the suppressive firepower of the Japanese's six heavy machine guns and the grenades fired from the grenades would have killed it long ago!"
"Everyone knows how the bunker was built. If the bunker is destroyed, do you think there will still be a light machine gun hidden inside to continue firing?"
"There is only one possibility. The bunker was not destroyed by the Japanese bombardment and remained intact!"
"As for why there are only two machine guns shooting, there is only one reason. This is Zhang Yun's intention!"
Dong Xulin opened his mouth with a shocked expression at first, and then shouted with a look of sudden realization.
"It's true, the bunker is not big. If it is destroyed, the entire bunker will definitely be destroyed, and it will be impossible to continue to use it!"
"Company Commander, Platoon Commander Zhang does not use his machine gun. This is obviously a sign of weakness. What is his purpose?"
"Hold the Japanese and slowly consume them!" Li Hao hesitated and analyzed.
"The bunker is intact. The mortars equipped by the Japanese can't do anything to them, and there are six light machine guns in front of them. If you were the Japanese commander, what would you do?"
"Give up the attack and retreat proactively!" Dong Xulin replied.
After thinking for a while, he continued to add: "If the little devil can call over for plane support, then forget it!"
Li Hao shook his head and replied: "Aircraft support is definitely impossible. We are just an independent company. The target is too small, and there are not so many Japanese planes that there is no place to use them!"
"Then we can only retreat!" Dong Xulin affirmed.
"If they can't blow up the bunker, they won't be able to capture the mountain pass. There is no difference between continuing the attack and committing suicide. The little Japanese commander will never let his subordinates die here without any objection!"
Li Hao replied with a smile on his face: "That's it!"
"Using six machine guns at once will definitely scare away the Japanese."
"Now Zhang Yun used two machine guns at once. Not only did he not scare away the Japanese, but he aroused the Japanese's determination to capture the mountain pass and continue to attack them!"
Dong Xulin understood it completely: "You little devil who shows weakness, drag them here, slowly consume them, and severely injure them!"
The smile on Li Hao's face grew wider, and he added: "One more thing, wait for our reinforcements to arrive, attack them from the front and back, and kill them!"
Jiang Tianhong also understood and quickly asked: "Company Commander, how will we fight next?"
"wait……"
Li Hao's answer was once again shocking.
Seeing several platoon leaders with their mouths open in shock and looking at him with puzzled expressions, Li Hao analyzed with a serious face.
"Compared to us attacking the Japanese and confronting the Japanese head-on, the garrison platoon relying on the bunker to attack the Japanese will definitely achieve greater results and reduce casualties!"
"Wait a moment and let the defense platoon go up first!"
Jiang Tianhong asked with a look of reluctance: "Then we just wait here and do nothing?"
"I won't leave you idle!" Li Hao replied.
His face slowly returned to seriousness, and he pointed to the battlefield and ordered: "The Japanese artillery position and the infantry assembly area are together. Due to the terrain requirements, the heavy machine gun squadron is deployed two hundred meters away. This means that after the battle begins, we need to divide our forces into two groups to attack.
Devil!"
"Three mountain cannons are aimed at the Japanese heavy machine gun position. I personally direct the aiming!"
"The battle begins, each gun fires three rapid fire rounds."
"The reconnaissance platoon cooperated with the mountain artillery operation and first touched the Japanese heavy machine gun position. As soon as the gunfire sounded, they began to attack and captured the Japanese heavy machine gun position!"
"Three mortars are aimed at the Japanese artillery position and infantry assembly area. When the battle begins, each gun fires a six-round rapid fire, and then listens to my command to correct the shooting Zhuyuan and continue firing!"
"The first platoon and the fire platoon cooperated with three mortars to raid the Japanese infantry assembly area and artillery position, try to get to the Japanese as much as possible, and shorten the assault distance!"
"The reconnaissance platoon must wipe out all the little Japs on the heavy machine gun position!"
"The first platoon and the fire platoon are not needed. There are too many Japanese. If we wipe them out head-on, even if there are three mortars to provide artillery support, the casualties of the troops will be very high!"
"All I need is that you defeat them."
"The devils still have a long way to go to escape from this mountain. We can slowly consume them in this mountain."
When Li Hao and his artillery platoon began to assemble three mountain cannons, the sound of artillery on the battlefield stopped.
Two infantry squads formed a skirmishing attack formation and stormed out of the assembly area.
"Da da da……"
Lieutenant Colonel Ida's heart skipped a beat as the gunfire he least expected to hear on the battlefield rang out again.
But this time, the frown only lasted for less than a few seconds and then relaxed.
There was only one light machine gun and seven or eight rifles firing at the Eighth Route Army position on the mountainside. This amount of troops was not even a full infantry squad.
Even if their bunker is still there, it would be delusional to try to block the two infantry squads of the Imperial Army with this firepower.
A sneer slowly flashed across the corner of Ida Nakasa's lips, and then he ordered.
"There are not many Eighth Route Army troops on the mountain. Try to kill them in one attack and capture the mountain pass!"
In the bunker, facing the Japanese who were getting closer and closer, Zhang Yun didn't show any nervousness on his face.
He personally picked up a rifle and guarded a shooting port with two riflemen.
After firing a round of bullets at the Japanese attacking troops, he quickly gave up the firing hole to the two riflemen next to him, and then gave the order.
"Don't you complain every day that there is less training in the garrison platoon and less opportunities to fight Japanese soldiers? Now we are conducting live-fire training with Japanese soldiers. Let me shoot as much as I want, aim and shoot, don't be afraid of wasting bullets!"
"At the end of the battle, one person must kill at least one kid for me!"
