The explosion lasted for one minute and then stopped. Liu Senyun also put down the microphone at this time and reported with a solemn face!
"Captain, the artillery shells were fired from the east of the Third Company's station. The identity of the enemy is not yet clear, but the Third Company Commander has already led his troops to kill them. News should come soon!"
"Guard platoon!" Li Hao shouted with a stern face!
Protecting Li Hao was a reinforced platoon. Although many recruits were added, at least half were veterans!
A veteran leads a new soldier, which not only ensures the combat effectiveness of the unit, but also allows the new recruits to quickly adapt to the battlefield and form combat effectiveness!
So this guard platoon is the only unit Li Hao can use!
"Here!" The guard platoon leader rushed over immediately!
Li Hao did not hesitate and ordered directly: "Take your people and reinforce the Third Company immediately!"
"The Third Company has not yet formed combat effectiveness. If the shelling just now was a bait for the Japanese, they will be falling into a trap by attacking now!"
"You lead the guard platoon and march quickly to kill them, ensuring the safety of the third company from the flanks!"
The guard platoon leader did not move. He hesitated and reminded: "What about your safety, captain?"
Li Hao glared at the platoon leader and ordered angrily: "This is the secret service battalion headquarters. There is at least one guard company around. What danger can there be! Execute the order immediately!"
Tonight is destined to be an uneventful night!
Li Hao stayed at the battalion headquarters and waited for more than three hours before he saw the guard platoon leader running back panting!
"Captain, the Third Company is fine. The enemy had already run away when we arrived at the artillery position. There was nothing left except an ammunition box!"
"We followed the trail all the way to the edge of the forest but did not find the enemy. We were worried that there were traps in the forest, so we did not continue the pursuit and retreated!"
"Are the casualties of the third company heavy?" Li Hao asked quickly!
The guard platoon leader thought for a moment and reported: "18 people were killed and three were seriously injured."
"The barracks of an infantry squad were hit by artillery shells. The entire squad was either killed or injured, and the entire army was almost destroyed!"
"The third company commander is organizing the troops to rescue the wounded and calm the troops' panic. He will come over later to report the specific situation!"
Li Hao's face immediately turned gloomy, and he frowned and fell into deep thought!
Liu Senyun couldn't help it anymore!
The more than 20 casualties in the third company were all his subordinates, and they were killed before they could even form a fighting force!
As a commander, his first reaction was to feel aggrieved, and then he became furious. He wished he could find those sneak attackers right now, cut them into pieces, and avenge his sacrificed and injured subordinates!
After the guard platoon leader finished his report, he couldn't help but cursed: "Captain, the enemy returned to the woods after firing the shells. I judge that they are the same group as the Japanese and puppet troops who attacked Zhoucun last night, and they have been hiding in
In the woods!”
"Our original thought was that they would attack the village tonight, and our defense would be focused on the village!"
"I didn't expect that they would bypass the village, start a new campaign, and attack our military camp!"
"These Japanese and puppet troops are so arrogant that they simply don't take us seriously! I suggest sending troops into the mountains immediately to find this Japanese and puppet army and kill them!"
Li Hao refused with a stern face: "No, unless we already know their exact location in the mountain, we must not go into the mountain to search for them!"
"Don't you see? The fighting method of this Japanese and puppet army is very different from what we have encountered before!"
"Martial law orders were just issued to all villages yesterday afternoon, and they changed the target of the attack that night!"
"Also, Zhoucun is more than twenty miles away from the Third Company Station. They have to pass through several villages on the way from the mountains near Zhoucun to the Third Company Station!"
"But the guerrillas in these villages did not issue any warning!"
"It shows that these Japanese and puppet troops got the news in advance and deliberately bypassed all the villages along the way!"
"Someone tipped off these Japanese and puppet troops!" Liu Senyun immediately reacted!
The anger on his face became even stronger, and he yelled: "If you let me know who these traitors are, I will definitely cut them into pieces!"
"If it hadn't been for them, the dozen guerrillas in Zhoucun would not have died, and the Third Company would not have suffered casualties of more than 20 soldiers in one night!"
"Get out...bang..."
At this point, Liu Senyun punched the table in front of him, hoping to vent his anger!
"One more thing!" Li Hao said!
"This group of Japanese and puppet troops also have local snakes who are very familiar with the terrain here. Otherwise, they would not be able to avoid so many villages so accurately, quietly reach the side of the Third Company's station, and be able to withdraw as soon as possible when the Third Company pursues them.
In the forest, you won’t even take the wrong path in the middle!”
"Last point, the combat effectiveness of these Japanese and puppet troops is definitely not bad!"
"Leave after the fight. There is no sloppiness at all on the battlefield. All orders and prohibitions are followed. Only elite troops can do this!"
"So I am sure that this is a very difficult opponent. The commander who planned this operation is also very powerful and has a ruthless vision, otherwise he would not have appeared when we were at our weakest!"
The anger on Liu Senyun's face disappeared, and he remained calm and silent!
But there has been a huge wave in my heart!
If these Japanese and puppet troops are really that powerful and familiar with the terrain, there are people who will send them intelligence. Letting a group of new recruits go into the mountains to search for them like a net is really not cheap!
Maybe it will be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, and the army will be lost!
After a long time, Liu Senyun calmed down and analyzed with a stern face: "Captain, these little devils are obviously learning our guerrilla warfare!"
"Relying on our familiarity with the terrain and the intelligence support, we can hit wherever we want and run away without giving us a chance to counterattack!"
"If we cannot get rid of them as soon as possible, our people's morale and military morale will be completely wiped out by them."
“Not only can’t the base be built, but the new recruits can’t be trained, so they won’t be able to achieve combat effectiveness!”
Li Hao obviously saw this, and his expression was very ugly: "This is just the beginning!"
"Without a base and troops, we will not be able to stop the next attack by the Japanese and puppet troops!"
"This is a chain reaction. If you guessed it correctly, these Japanese and puppet troops came here with this purpose!"
"Don't let us establish a base area, hinder us from training new soldiers and forming combat effectiveness. Then send out heavy troops to attack us, defeat us when we are at our weakest, and take back the three counties of Laiyuan!"
"If their appetite is bigger, they might eat us all!"
Liu Senyun's expression became more solemn, and he frowned and thought about the solution!
But after racking my brains, my mind is still confused!
The defense team was too weak, and all the methods that came to mind were rejected for various reasons!
In the end, I could only place my hope on Li Hao, looked at Li Hao and asked!
