He didn't kill the enemy's probing attack force, but he killed half of their company's main attack force. Li Hao was very satisfied with this result.
He listened to everything the two monitors said word for word, and it was all good news.
Looking at Zhong Jiangwen who looked anxious, Li Hao answered confidently: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the ground. The initiative on the battlefield is now in the hands of the enemy. We can only use tactics. But I am confident that we can defeat them and defend the town!"
"
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier rushed over from behind, panting and reporting.
"Platoon leader, the east side of the town is almost undefendable!"
The good mood on Li Hao's face disappeared.
Although the confident expression still exists, there has been a slight wavering.
My confidence just now was well-founded. Five light machine guns, three submachine guns, and three box cannons were my source of confidence.
But there is a prerequisite: there must be no accidents in the other three directions of the town.
Once an accident occurs, the enemy can enter the town from any direction, no matter which direction.
In order to defend the town, the recruit company's combat strength has been mobilized.
In the entire town, including the severely wounded and prisoners, there were very few troops.
Needless to say, as long as a platoon of enemies attacks, the wounded and prisoners will not be saved.
More importantly, the enemies who enter the town can also cooperate with the attacking troops outside the town to attack from inside and outside, and annihilate the Red Army scattered in other directions.
At that time, you will become a lone army. Because your troops are limited, even if you have three heads and six arms, and have those enviable equipment, you can't stop the enemy from attacking from all directions.
Of course, he can also send troops to reinforce Zhendong.
But in this case, the troops and firepower in his hands are not enough.
Once the enemies outside the town continue to attack, I can only choose to fight them head-on. The casualties will be huge, and there is no guarantee that I can hold this place.
Faced with this dilemma, Li Hao frowned and hesitated for a long time, unable to make up his mind.
At this moment, another soldier rushed over from behind everyone.
"Platoon leader, the position we are defending on the west side of the town can hardly be defended!"
"The enemy was too cunning and did not attack. Instead, they lay down 50 to 60 meters outside the town and fired at us. They had more machine guns and rifles than us. Even though we hid behind the earthen wall, we still lost three soldiers!
"
"The squad leader asked me to report: the morale of other soldiers has been affected, and they won't be able to hold on for another ten minutes at most."
Zhong Jiangwen was anxious: "Platoon commander, if we send reinforcements to them, there will be no one here!"
"This is the enemy's main attack direction. The enemy also has three heavy machine guns. With less defensive troops and firepower, he will definitely not be able to withstand it..."
"Da da da……"
The house leaked and it rained all night. When Li Hao frowned and thought about a solution, three heavy machine guns outside the town rang out.
Li Shaohua was also anxious at this time. He frowned and reported: "Platoon leader, a new round of enemy attacks has begun. There are still more than 80 enemies in a company. How will we fight this time!"
"Retreat!" Li Hao issued a shocking command.
Li Shaohua and Zhong Jiangwen both had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Li Hao was unmoved and continued to order: "Not only do we retreat, but all the troops in the other three directions retreat!"
"Retreat directly to the yards around the seriously wounded and rely on those yards to defend!"
"We don't have enough troops to defend such a big town, so let's concentrate our troops to defend a few yards!"
"The enemy has no artillery. As long as we defend those yards, the wounded and prisoners will be fine!"
"Go back immediately and notify your squad leader to retreat quickly and occupy the two yards closest to the wounded on the east and west sides to hold on!"
"Zhong Jiangwen, find someone to notify the company commander to retreat!"
Li Shaohua said: "Then I will organize the troops to retreat!"
Li Hao shook his head and replied: "No, you stay with the three submachine gunners in the squad, and I will give you a machine gun team. You can choose three more soldiers to stay together and hide in a nearby house to hide on standby!"
"After the enemy enters the town, they will definitely continue to attack inside. After the failure just now, they will definitely use heavy machine guns to attack steadily this time!"
"When the time comes, the three heavy machine guns will definitely enter the town with the troops. I want you to hide behind them and wait for the opportunity. Find a way to get behind the three heavy machine guns, launch a sudden attack, and kill them."
"Seize it if you have a chance, blow it up with a grenade if you don't!"
"As long as the enemy loses their heavy machine guns, they will have a strength advantage in front of us, and our chances of defeating them will definitely increase greatly!"
What he said must have frightened Li Shaohua.
It took him a long time to recover from the shock, and he looked at Li Hao with doubt on his face and asked.
"Platoon commander, may I do this?"
"Just one light machine gun and three submachine guns sneak attack on the enemy's heavy machine gun platoon. I always think it's too mysterious!"
"The enemy takes the heavy machine gun platoon so seriously. There must be troops to protect them. There must be forty or fifty people in the entire heavy machine gun position. We only have ten people. Can we do it?"
"It must be possible, I believe you!" Li Hao affirmed.
"Perhaps your sneak attack will be a turning point in the entire battle. We can defeat the enemy's trump card. This is indeed the case!"
"As long as these three heavy machine guns are killed, the enemy will no longer have the confidence to attack us!"
"But I still don't believe that I can complete this important task!" Li Shaohua still has no confidence.
Before joining the recruit company, he was a veteran and was not even the deputy squad leader.
When he arrived at the recruit company, he was promoted to squad leader because of the limited number of veterans, but he always followed orders and never performed a task alone, and it was such an important task!
Therefore, he had no confidence in his heart and did not believe that he could complete this important task.
"I believe you!" Li Hao affirmed again.
"After the enemy entered the town, they would never have thought that you would hide and not retreat with them!"
"After confirming the enemy's heavy machine gun positions, you can climb over the wall and get closer to them little by little, so that no one is aware of them!"
Even if the enemy deploys guard troops around the heavy machine gun position, the main purpose is to defend the front, not the rear!
"You appear out of nowhere to launch a surprise attack, then retreat as soon as you attack. You will definitely be able to complete your mission!"
