The Japanese squadron leader took the lead and rushed to the front!
But no matter how fast he was, he finally arrived at the battlefield too late!
Except for the indelible blood stains on the street, which proves that a battle just broke out here, there is nothing else!
"Where are the Imperial Army? Where are the Imperial Army who fought against the Eighth Route Army? Even if they were killed by the Eighth Route Army, there should be corpses. Why is there not even a corpse here!" The squadron leader's face was full of shock and confusion, and he shouted loudly
Question!
The expressions on the faces of the subordinates were very complicated. Some looked confused, some looked overwhelmed, and some had a trace of panic on their faces!
Facing unknown things, even if they are soldiers with strong fighting power and armed to the teeth, they will feel hairy and afraid!
A second lieutenant reported in a low voice: "Sir, could it be that the Eighth Route Army hid the corpse in the yard?"
The squadron leader's eyes lit up and he shouted: "It's very possible!"
Then without thinking much, he immediately ordered: "The troops will be divided immediately. Use combat units as units to enter the yard and search for houses!"
"There are seventy or eighty warriors in the offensive force and the reconnaissance team. It is certainly impossible for them to disappear for no reason. I want to see people dead and corpses in my life!"
"Clang!"
More than a dozen Japanese soldiers pushed open the courtyard door with great force, rifles in hand, and rushed in very alertly!
"There is no one in the yard!" shouted the Japanese soldier who rushed in first!
Chief Cao, who followed closely behind, immediately ordered: "Search dispersedly, every house and every corner must not be spared!"
"Boom boom..."
As soon as he finished speaking, two explosions rang out in front of Chang Cao's eyes!
Four of the dozen subordinates fell on the spot, two dead and two wounded!
Chief Cao quickly shouted: "It's a booby trap. The Eighth Route Army has set up booby traps in the yard. Pay attention to your steps when searching, and try not to touch anything if possible. Start searching!"
"Bangdang..."
Three little devils formed a fighting formation and broke open the door of the house!
"There's no one inside!" shouted the leading kid!
Then the three people rushed into the room, stared around at the finished glyph distribution, and started searching!
"boom……"
The explosion went off again, this time it exploded directly on the rafters behind them!
The three Japs all had their backs to the door, and the grenades arranged as booby traps exploded in the air. The fragments were like a goddess scattering flowers, directly covering them, and then easily got into their backs and blew them to the ground!
In another room, as soon as the three Japs rushed in, a series of machine gun fire rang out!
A hole suddenly appeared in the brick wall of the back room, and bullets flew out of it, fanning out towards the Japanese!
The shooting distance is too close, the total is less than ten meters!
The moment the gunfire rang out, the bullets had already penetrated into the bodies of the Japanese, making them unable to defend themselves and they fell to the ground with a groan!
The Japanese outside became anxious and shouted: "The enemy is attacking. There are Eighth Route Army troops hiding in the room... throw grenades and kill them!"
"Boom boom..."
Two white-smoking grenades rolled into the house and exploded, and the machine gun instantly misfired!
Under the cover of gunpowder smoke, the three Japanese soldiers rushed in with guns drawn!
The Eighth Route Army machine gunner fell to the ground covered in blood, his eyes widened, and he was dead!
The machine gun was damaged and fell to the side!
Just when the three Japanese soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and thought that the danger was over, the gunfire rang out again!
A hole the size of a brick appeared in the back wall of the house at some point. The barrel of a machine gun extended through the hole and started shooting at them!
The three Japs fell down at the sound, and each of them had several bloody holes in his body!
In the blink of an eye, the Japanese lost more than twelve people in this compound!
The Japanese leader Cao stood in the middle of the yard with a look of despair!
This result was really shocking to him. He had never encountered such a strange battle situation after fighting for such a long time!
How could the Imperial Army, which was so powerful on the battlefield, get here? In front of the Eighth Route Army, it was like a different person, becoming vulnerable!
"Retreat, there are traps everywhere here, we can't fight anymore, everyone needs to evacuate the yard!" Cao Changshang shouted!
The Japanese squadron leader was standing on the street, surrounded by an infantry squad. When he heard gunshots and explosions coming from both sides of the street, his first subconscious reaction was that his subordinates had found the Eighth Route Army in hiding and were destroying them!
So the captain had a smile on his face at the beginning!
But the good times didn't last long. The first troop that rushed out of the yard directly subverted his imagination and shattered his dream!
Not only did they not return with a full load, but they suffered heavy casualties!
A combat detachment consisted of seventeen imperial troops. When they entered the courtyard, they were all fully equipped, but when they came out, they were less than half full, and there were still several lightly and seriously wounded!
Just like a bereaved dog, very embarrassed!
The second lieutenant who led the team rushed out of the yard and ran towards him!
"Sir, there are traps everywhere in the yard. The Eighth Route Army is in the dark and we are in the open. We are completely defenseless against attacks!"
"Also, they are well-equipped and have more machine guns than we do. The yard I just attacked was equipped with at least two machine guns and a large number of booby traps!"
"The troops entered and suffered heavy casualties. In order to reduce the casualties, I took the initiative and ordered the troops to retreat without authorization. Please punish me, sir!"
The squadron leader's first reaction was disbelief, thinking that the second lieutenant was making excuses for his defeat and shirking responsibility!
However, as the defeated soldiers rushed out of the yard one after another, he finally believed it!
He cursed loudly: "Baga, how is it possible? When did the Eighth Route Army become so powerful that it could defeat the Imperial Army in such a miserable state!"
Another second lieutenant whose arm was injured said: "Sir, I think it's not that the Eighth Route Army has become more powerful, but that they are too cunning!"
"Hide in the room in advance, dig a lot of shooting holes in the wall, and wait for us to hit their guns! Once we are fooled, they will take us off guard and launch a sudden attack. No matter how powerful the imperial army is, they will suffer heavy casualties!"
The squadron leader quickly calmed down and shouted with a look of realization: "I understand, the Eighth Route Army wants to fight us in street battles and kill a large number of our troops!"
"The troops will retreat immediately. The missing attacking troops must have been killed by the Eighth Route Army using this method!"
"This battle cannot be fought. The Eighth Route Army is familiar with the terrain and must have deployed a large number of street fighting fortifications in the city. If we fight them in street fighting, fight hard, and occupy Lingqiu City bit by bit, the casualties will be too great. We simply cannot bear it. We must
Report to the captain immediately and change our attack method!"
The Japanese squadron leader reacted very quickly, immediately saw his own weakness, and then made the decision to retreat!
However, people who are too smart often die the fastest on the battlefield!
In addition to the three main battalions in Lingqiu City, there is also an elusive reconnaissance company!
Each of their reconnaissance squads has two sharpshooters who were eliminated by the commandos!
Although it has not yet reached the standard of a sniper, I feel that I can hit a fixed target with perfect accuracy from a distance of one to two hundred meters!
At this moment, they are scattered in groups of two in Lingqiu City, freely looking for hunting targets!
The squadron leader, surrounded by stars and the moon, happened to be targeted by a sniper team!
