Xiao Yuan was splashed with cold water, and the eager expression on his face disappeared instantly.
But he was unwilling to give in and asked hurriedly: "Battal Commander, if the infantry can't attack at close range, and the artillery can't attack from long distance, then we have nothing to do with the little devils tonight, and we can only watch them sleep beside us.
Sleep!"
Li Hao hesitated for a long time and replied: "There is a way, it is a bit risky, but I think it is worth a try!"
"What can we do?" Several company commanders asked at the same time.
His disappointed face showed an expression of eagerness to try again, and he looked at Li Hao with increasingly hot eyes.
Li Hao analyzed seriously: "The Japanese are very vigilant, but they are all trying to prevent us from sneak attacks! Infantry sneak attacks and artillery sneak attacks are all on guard!"
"But, they forgot to guard against something!"
"In addition to sneak attacks on them, we can also attack them!"
"The troops are so dispersed. Even if infantry squadrons and squads can reinforce each other, it will only be based on the situation where one point is attacked."
"If the Japanese were attacked at several points at the same time, they would have no choice but to fight independently."
"At that time, the shortcomings of their troops being too dispersed will be exposed."
"An infantry squad is guarding more than 100 meters. If we kill some troops during the battle, there will definitely be a lot of defense holes in the entire defense line."
"If we have a small force that takes advantage of the chaos to cross the Japanese defense line, sneak into their camp, get into the little Japanese's belly and cause havoc, we will definitely achieve some unexpected results!"
After saying that, Li Hao didn't wait for the company commanders to react from the shock, stared at Xiao Yuan and asked.
"Haven't you been clamoring to fight the Japanese? Now is such an opportunity!"
"Take thirty soldiers, wear Japs uniforms, carry enough grenades, sneak into the Japs' belly and cause havoc, and then kill them out!"
"This is a near-death mission. To put it more directly, these thirty soldiers are the death squads formed by our independent battalion, and the leader is the death squad captain!"
"If you have the courage, I will let you be the captain!"
Xiao Yuan only frowned for a moment before making a decision: "Batalion Commander, you don't need to find anyone else. I must be the captain of this death squad!"
"When I was a seriously wounded soldier, if you hadn't led the battalion commander to rescue me from the heavy siege of the Japanese and puppet troops, I would have died long ago~"
"The little devil was not able to take my life under such a bad situation at that time. Now that there is a battalion commander outside and you lead the troops to cooperate, it will be even more difficult for the little devil to take my life!"
Li Hao did not deny it and made a decisive decision: "Then you will be the captain of the death squad!"
"Thirty team members are selected from the guard company and four main companies. You must volunteer to join!"
"Companies 1 and 2 are on their way over. They can get here in the early morning. I asked them to bring forty sets of Japs uniforms. All the death squad members will put on the Japs uniforms to reduce the risk of being discovered by the Japs after entering the station.
Probability!”
"After they arrive, I will issue specific combat missions and strive to launch an attack on the Japanese army at three o'clock in the morning, and end the operation and exit the battlefield at five o'clock in the morning!"
Looking at the entire camp, there were only less than ten tents scattered throughout the Japanese army's temporary camping camp. Only officers above the squadron leader were eligible to enjoy them. Other officers and soldiers sat around the campfire to keep warm, without any privileges.
In a tent in the middle of the station, the Major Captain was lying on the camp bed and fast asleep.
As a commander, whether marching or fighting, his nerves are always in a state of tension, and he is deeply afraid of any accidents.
Even though there was a war horse to travel, the physical strength and energy consumed in the whole day was still far more than that of an ordinary soldier, so he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Outside the tent, the security forces were not carrying anything, and groups of three were patrolling around the tent to ensure the safety of the headquarters.
"Da da da……"
A string of heavy machine gun fire suddenly sounded, breaking the tranquility of the night.
Although the major was sleeping soundly, he still sat up from the bed as a reflex, grabbed the armed belt and binoculars that were standing beside him, and walked outside the tent, shouting as he walked.
"What's going on with the gunfire outside? Is there an Eighth Route Army attacking us at night?"
As soon as I rushed out of the tent, a second lieutenant rushed over!
"Sir, the second squadron of the first squadron of the Southeast Defense Line was attacked by the Eighth Route Army!"
"The opponent has a heavy machine gun and at least three light machine guns, with powerful firepower!"
"Boom boom boom..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of explosions came.
The distance was only a few hundred meters away. Even without a telescope, the major could see the flames rising from the explosion. The subordinates who were blown up into the sky by the grenade were very clear.
The second lieutenant looked embarrassed and added: "The enemy also has three grenade launchers, because it's too dark, so I don't know how many troops they have!"
The major's face sank and he cursed: "The cunning Eighth Route Army really did not miss this opportunity to attack us at night!"
"Fortunately, we listened to Lieutenant Colonel Watanabe's warning and were well prepared!"
After saying that, the major raised his telescope and looked at the battlefield that was already shrouded in flames.
Because there was no heavy machine gun, an infantry squad of the Imperial Army was suppressed and beaten from the beginning, which was very frustrating.
The Major's already frowning frown deepened now.
At this time, the adjutant next to him suddenly shouted: "Sir, the two squads on both sides of the second squad have also joined the battle. The three infantry squads add up to nine light machine guns and nine grenade launchers. Even if the Eighth Route Army has heavy machine guns,
Not an opponent!"
The major's frown quickly relaxed, and he replied with a look of approval: "Yo Xi, the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack force seems to have been suppressed by our counterattack firepower!"
"Order the counterattack troops to make full use of our firepower advantage, rely on the garrison to defend, and use firepower to repel the Eighth Route Army that sneaked up on us!"
The adjutant hesitated and reminded: "Should we order the troops on both wings to take the initiative to attack us, outflank the Eighth Route Army who attacked us in a roundabout way, and kill them?"
"No!" Major refused decisively.
"Have you forgotten how the Watanabe Brigade suffered more than half of its casualties?"
"It's so dark, you can't see anything around the station, and the terrain is dangerous. Can you guarantee that the Eighth Route Army didn't set up pocket formations for us around, just waiting for our attacking troops to infiltrate inside?"
The adjutant quickly replied: "Sir, you are wise, but you are not considerate of your humble position!"
"Just using firepower to drive them back is really too easy for them!"
The major shook his head and replied: "You underestimate the combat effectiveness of the imperial army!"
"Compared with those sneak attackers, not only our counterattack firepower is more powerful, but the shooting accuracy of our soldiers is also higher than that of the Eighth Route Army. As long as this kind of shooting can last ten minutes, even five minutes, it can cause huge damage to the Eighth Route Army that sneaks up on us!"
"So this kind of shooting is not cheap for them at all, and it is very beneficial to us!"
Having said this, the major's face showed a smile involuntarily.
It was as if the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack troops had suffered heavy casualties in the exchange of fire and had to retreat in embarrassment.
