"I don't know. There must be other actions, maybe to attack the county town." Liu Changshun expressed his guess.
"Attack the county town" Jiang He was stunned. If someone had told him that he was going to attack the county town before the special operations company arrived, he would have definitely thought that person was out of his mind.
Even if there is only one small team in the county guarded by the Japs, they may not be able to defeat it if they dispatch a regiment of more than a thousand troops. After all, the Japs from other counties will support them.
But now that the special operations company is here, it is basically certain that the regiment leader and the others will attack the empty county town.
Moreover, after seeing the power of the special operations company, he felt that the county seat could definitely be captured, but of course the county seat could not be defended.
After all, other Japanese soldiers will come to support, and it is impossible to watch this county being taken back.
But attacking the county seat and capturing it is of great significance, and spreading the news will definitely inspire people.
The independent group is going to make a name for itself this time.
"Speaking of which, have the Japs in the north been resolved?" Liu Changshun changed the topic and asked. This matter still needs to be confirmed. What if it is not resolved?
"Yes, the Japs over there have been dealt with. The people from the Second Battalion met with me before. I asked them to bring the supplies back to the regiment headquarters first." Jiang He said.
When he put away the supplies and prepared to bring people, the Second Battalion had already brought people to join him.
"That's okay, speed up Camp Commander Jiang, let's take the first step." Liu Changshun ordered, and the soldiers of the special operations company quickened their pace.
Although Jiang He and the others were also speeding up, they still couldn't keep up with Liu Changshun and the others.
Liu Changshun and the others moved towards the ambush point in the south. After running for three or four miles in a row, they gradually heard the sound of gunshots.
The ambush point in the south.
This is a piece of flat land, where the third battalion commander and his people are blocking the attack.
There is no way, there is no suitable ambush point nearby. The nearest mountain peak is more than 100 meters or almost 200 meters away from the road, so there is no place where the soldiers of the special operations company can ambush.
If their soldiers block the attack from such a long distance, they may not be able to kill a few Japanese in a half-day fight.
So we can only dig trenches on both sides of the road to block the attack.
Bang bang bang
Da da da
The soldiers of the independent regiment kept shooting at the Japanese soldiers who were about sixty or seventy meters away from them. From time to time during this period, an Eighth Route Army soldier would be shot and fall down.
Without a geographical advantage, it would be really difficult for them to stop the Japanese on flat ground.
"Damn, what's going on? Why do the Eighth Route Army have soldiers with such accurate marksmanship?" The Japanese second lieutenant who led the team was lying in a depression.
He couldn't understand why the Eighth Route Army had so many soldiers with accurate marksmanship. It would be fine if there were only one or two, but judging from the fact that six or seven machine gunners were killed with one shot, those sharpshooters were , at least eight or nine.
The battle lasted only a few minutes, but they suffered heavy casualties, especially the machine gunners. Anyone who fired would die. As of now, no one dares to fire a machine gun.
Even the artillerymen have all been killed now. Without the fire suppression of machine guns and grenade launchers, they can now say that it is very difficult to fight.
"Second Lieutenant, I found the location of the Eighth Route Army's sharpshooters. They are on the mountains on both sides." A Japanese sergeant climbed towards the Second Lieutenant and said.
The sharpshooters of the Eighth Route Army were very cunning. During the fierce battle, they hid in the mountains in the distance and carried out sneak attacks. He had thought that the Eighth Route Army was hiding in the trenches in front, but it turned out not to be the case at all.
Judging from the position where the body was shot, it was shot from both wings, so only the mountain was the most likely location.
"Nani is on the mountain." The Japanese lieutenant stuck his head out and looked at the mountain about two hundred meters away from the road. This location, it was night again, and the light was very poor. How could someone beat someone to death here?
"Yes, and the Eighth Route Army on the mountain changed positions after firing. The key is that they stared at our machine gunners." said the Japanese Sergeant.
"Have one machine gunner shoot to lure the Eighth Route Army troops to reveal their positions. The rest of the machine gunners should aim at the mountains on both sides. As long as you see their exposed positions, don't worry about them and just shoot them for me." said the ensign.
Now that he has found the position, he will directly expose the position of the Eighth Route Army. He does not believe it. Several machine guns fire at the same time, and the Eighth Route Army is still alive.
"Hi" the Japanese Army Sergeant nodded, and he went to give the order.
On the mountain on the left, Jiang Yuanming and four soldiers were waiting here. They ignored the other Japs and focused on the Japs' machine gunners.
Otherwise, if they attack ordinary soldiers and their position is exposed, the Japanese will definitely shoot them with machine guns, which is a bit dangerous.
Soon, a Japanese machine gunner fired at the position of the independent regiment.
When Jiang Yuanming saw it, he frowned. The Japs had already discovered that they were on the mountain. Otherwise, the Japs would not have dared to fire the machine gun. He was obviously a bait, using his soldiers as bait. What a devil would do.
He was sure that as soon as he fired, the other Japanese machine gunners would immediately shoot in this direction.
The soldiers of other special operations companies also saw it, so they did not fire immediately. The soldiers of the special operations company on the right did not fire either and were waiting for Jiang Yuanming to take action.
"You all hide, leave this Japanese machine gunner to me." Jiang Yuanming ordered decisively.
The other special operations company soldiers immediately dispersed and hid.
Jiang Yuanming also hid behind a huge stone. He raised his gun from the side of the stone, aimed at the Japanese machine gunner, and then pulled the trigger.
At that moment, when the bullet was fired, the muzzle of the gun also burst into flames, and the Japanese machine gunner who fired was shot dead on the spot.
Stare at the three Japs on the mountain on the leftThe machine gunner also saw Jiang Yuanming's position.
Da da da da
For a moment, the Japanese on the left immediately opened fire. Two light machine guns and one heavy machine gun fired at Jiang Yuanming's position.
As for the three Japanese machine gunners on the right, they are still staring at the mountain on the right. As long as someone on the mountain here shoots and exposes their position, they will immediately start shooting.
Puff, puff, puff
The bullets hit the trees, making craters in the trees, and the leaves flew downwards.
Jiang Yuanming hid behind the stone, listening to the sound of bullets hitting the stone, and some gravel was ejected into his face, directly cutting a shallow wound on his face.
"Damn, these Japs are pretty ruthless. Fortunately, all their artillerymen were killed." Jiang Yuanming thought, if all the Japs' machine guns and artillery were to hit him, that would be really bad. Quite dangerous.
The third battalion commander also saw the Japanese shooting on the mountain.
"Unfortunately, the position of the special operations company has been exposed. Machine gunners, give me a hard beating. Don't save bullets." The third battalion commander immediately ordered.
Soon, the machine gunners of the independent regiment shot at the machine gunners on the Japanese side.
Puff, puff, puff
For a moment, the three Japs who fired the machine guns were directly beaten into a sieve. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
