Li Hao led the guard company to the ambush battlefield first!
Although it was not very clear under the darkness of night, because of the moon tonight, I could still see a rough outline of the battlefield!
In the middle of the hills where you can't see the edge at a glance, the road is like a swimming dragon, circling along the mountains in the middle of the hills!
"Report to the leader, the platoon of the engineer company has been ordered to report, please give instructions!" The platoon leader of the engineer company panted and rushed to Li Hao to report!
"Platoon Leader Zhou!" Li Hao thought for a moment and asked!
"Yes, Commander!" The platoon leader was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, the leader actually knew him and answered immediately!
"I am Zhou Hongliang, commander of the platoon of the engineer company!"
Li Hao nodded and replied: "Your company commander told me that you are educated, understand explosives and demolition, and you have worked in the Shanxi-Sui Army Engineer Corps! You were promoted from an ordinary soldier to an engineer platoon leader in less than half a year!"
"If I remember correctly, many of the tactics and innovations of the Engineer Company were made at your suggestion!"
"This time to fight the Japanese, I asked your company commander to send you here by name!"
"How about it, just bring everything I asked you to bring!"
Zhou Hongliang's face was already blooming with joy. He didn't expect that the group leader knew him so well!
If this were in the old army, the engineer platoon leader, not to mention the regimental commander, might not even know the battalion commander!
Excited, he quickly replied: "I brought them all, a total of two kilometers of telephone lines, two detonators, and fifty 20-pound explosive bags!"
"Very good!" Li Hao's face was obviously much more relaxed!
He glanced at his watch and began to give orders: "Platoon Commander Zhou, let me tell you the truth, we are going to fight a large-scale ambush here next. The total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops is nearly two thousand, more than half of which are Japs, and we
There are only over a thousand people!”
"In my battle plan, your engineer platoon will be the protagonist of this ambush battle!"
"It seems like a fantasy and it's impossible to win the ambush battle, but the key lies in you!"
"Look at the terrain at the bottom of the mountain. If the two thousand Japanese puppet troops march quickly along the road, the team will stretch for at least one kilometer. I ask you to bury all the explosives you brought in the ravines or hillsides on both sides of the road within half an hour. They cannot go beyond the road.
Ten meters, while ensuring concealment, the closer the better!”
"One explosive package is buried every 20 meters, and all the explosive packages are connected with telephone lines, and they must be arranged as double lines!"
"All telephone lines are concealed and finally connected to the detonator!"
"When the Japs arrive, all enter the pocket array and use detonators to detonate the fifty explosive packets you planted at the same time!"
No one in the entire engineer company is better at playing with explosives than Zhou Hongliang!
After listening to Li Hao's order, he showed a dumbfounded and shocked expression!
Fifty explosive packets exploded simultaneously along the highway, the power must be amazing!
As long as the Japanese and puppet troops are within the explosion range, they will definitely be killed or injured!
Maybe this explosion will severely damage the Japanese and puppet troops who just came out of Laiyuan City!
Only then did Zhou Hongliang understand why Li Hao repeatedly emphasized that the engineer platoon was the protagonist in this ambush battle!
Because as long as you arrange it well, you can kill most of the Japanese puppet troops at once at the beginning of the battle!
The more Zhou Hongliang thought about it, the more excited he became, as if he had already seen the scene where the Japanese were blown up in pieces in the explosion!
Another thought also came to my mind. After this battle, the engineer company will definitely become famous in the garrison, and no one will look down on the engineer company in the future!
In order to successfully fight this battle to clear the name of the engineer company, Zhou Hongliang forced himself to calm down after a brief excitement, frowning and thinking about how to use fifty explosive packs to kill the most Japanese!
He had an idea and asked: "Captain, wouldn't it be better to bury fifty explosive bags directly on the road? Wouldn't it be better to use the power of the explosive bags?"
Li Hao shook his head and said in denial: "No!"
"Explosives can be buried on the road, but how can the telephone lines that detonate the explosives be concealed? It would take too long to dig a temporary trench and bury them. The Japanese will not give us such a long time!"
"Buried in the wasteland and slopes next to the road, the phone lines only need to be hidden in the grass and shrubs. It's fast!"
"I'll give you half an hour to prepare. The guards will send two platoons to help you. Be sure to arrange all the explosives within the specified time, and then place the detonators here!"
Special agent battalions rushed to the battlefield one after another.
The first company and the guard company with the strongest combat effectiveness are responsible for intercepting the head and tail. The other troops rely on light and heavy machine guns and are scattered on the ambush battlefield that stretches more than a thousand meters!
The worried expression on Liu Senyun's face became more and more intense, and he couldn't help but remind him: "Captain, our troops are too few!"
"There is more than thirty meters between the machine guns and there are half a squad of soldiers in the middle. This firepower is simply not enough to suppress the Japanese and puppet troops on the road!"
"Moreover, most of the troops participating in the battle are new soldiers. As long as the Japanese and puppet troops survive the first round of firepower raids and start to counterattack, those new soldiers will definitely suffer heavy casualties and collapse on the spot!"
"If the Japanese army hits us with another counterattack by then, the secret service camp will be finished!"
Looking at Zhou Hongliang who was already preparing the detonator more than ten meters away, Li Hao confidently replied: "Don't worry, Commander Liu, I won't give the little devil a chance to fight back!"
"What you need to do is send all the veterans and political cadres from the battalion headquarters and disperse them among the new recruits to stabilize the morale and morale of the army!"
"They are all on the battlefield for the first time. I'm worried that they won't be able to stand the blood and cruelty on the battlefield!"
"I don't want to see the troops not defeated by the Japanese and puppet troops' counterattack, but in the end they were frightened and collapsed on the battlefield because they were too cowardly!"
Liu Senyun is anxious!
Although the leader's words were obviously motivating, he just did it!
The worry on his face disappeared in an instant, and he looked at Li Hao's confident face and assured him: "Don't worry, captain, there will definitely be no deserters among the recruits trained by our special agent camp!"
"Then we'll wait and see!" Li Hao nodded and replied!
"Boom boom boom..."
Several faint explosions came over, interrupting the conversation between the two!
Li Hao quickly raised his telescope and looked down at the end of the road!
First, a dozen torches appeared, and after a few minutes, more and more torches began to appear, like fire dragons, rushing towards the pocket array along the road!
"The Japs are coming, get ready to fight!" Li Hao's face quickly returned to seriousness!
Then he asked Zhou Hongliang, who was more than ten meters away: "Platoon Leader Zhou, the time is up, I'm waiting for you."
Zhou Hongliang quickly replied: "Don't worry, captain, all that's left is to connect the detonator. It'll be over in two minutes. I promise it won't affect the battle!"
The harassment along the way made the Japanese commander so annoyed that he no longer thought of killing anyone!
But it also proves that the military’s judgment is correct!
The main force of the garrison has indeed gone to the front line. In order to slow down the march of the troops and buy time for their main force to retreat, the closer the troops are to the front line, the faster the frequency of their sneak attacks!
But he was also very fortunate that there were not many Eighth Route Army troops attacking him!
Although the frequency of sneak attacks is getting higher and higher, the casualties of the troops are not large!
As long as the troops cross the hills in front and walk for another two hours, the defense line will be there!
At that time, the troops can take revenge and complain, kill the Eighth Route Army there, and vent all the anger accumulated on the march!
