The commandos made a roundabout attack from the flanks so fast that the Japanese and puppet troops who were suppressed by Kong Jie and Ding Wei with superior firepower were beaten even though they had guessed that the Eighth Route Army might launch a surprise attack. Caught off guard.
At the same time, after the commando fire team opened a gap from the Japanese flank with eight grenade firepower, the reinforcement platoon that followed immediately, led by Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan, quickly occupied the breach and expanded the effect of the breakthrough. .
Originally, the Japanese and puppet troops had a head-on confrontation with Kong Jie and Ding Wei across the entrance of Xiao'an Town, so they had to disperse part of their forces to deal with Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan who were attacking from the flanks.
When Kong Jie saw Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan succeed, he hesitated. He immediately showed the iconic ghost-headed sword and roared, "Comrades, kill--"
"superior!"
Ding Wei said hello and took the lead with a new reinforced platoon.
While Kong Jie and Ding Wei took the lead in launching the charge, the heavy machine gun firepower of the peripheral fortifications of Xiaoan Town and the machine gun firepower of the three gun towers still turned around and fired wildly at the Japanese and puppet troops, fully covering the charge.
Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan saw that the main force had also begun to charge, and the offensive became more fierce.
Under the attack from both sides, the Japanese and puppet troops inside Xiao'an Town were somewhat overwhelmed.
When the combat troops from both sides quickly approached each other, the surrendering puppet company commander Wang An, who was thinking about showing off in front of Kong Jie, shouted with a wooden loudspeaker at the right time:
"Brothers of the Imperial Association Army, I am Wang An, the first company commander of the Imperial Association Army! Now he has surrendered to Commander Kong of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. You all know who Commander Kong is. He was a hero who killed old Japs Sakata with one shot. , Commander Kong said, as long as you turn your guns and aim at the little Japs, you are brothers of the Independent Regiment. As long as you can kill the Japs, your past sins will not be ignored. Commander Kong will still give us credit! Kill-- —”
Wang An had a very good grasp of the thoughts of these puppet troops.
It's a life-and-death moment again. Which of the discerning puppet soldiers can't see it? Xiao'an Town is over, these little devils are definitely no match for the powerful Eighth Route Army.
If you don't think of a way out for yourself at this time, will you have to fight to the death with these little devils who usually treat you poorly?
It happened that at this time, Wang An shouted such a voice, and many puppet soldiers immediately became interested.
Some Japanese soldiers in the Japanese army spoke good Chinese. They understood the content of Wang An's shouting and shouted Baga. They actually took the lead in turning the muzzle of their guns and pointed them warily at the puppet soldiers beside them who were fighting side by side just a moment ago.
Then I don’t know who made the move first.
It seems that some puppet soldiers beat the Japanese to death, and it also seems that some Japanese soldiers beat the puppet soldiers to death.
In short, the fragile trust between the two parties immediately became fragmented.
"Damn it, brothers, kill the Japanese and join Commander Kong!"
A company commander who usually had a good relationship with Wang An roared.
Many puppet soldiers then rebelled, turned their guns, and opened fire at the unsuspecting Japanese around them.
Under the chain effect, the Japanese and puppet troops immediately took action. At this time, no matter whether they were willing to rebel in their hearts or whether they had the courage to rebel, they could only be forced to follow the general trend.
Not far away, Ye Min, a sniper from the commando team, and Wang Xikui, a veteran who was transferred to the sniper team by Kong Jie, looked at each other and laughed evilly.
It was the two of them who deliberately created friction in which the Japanese army killed the puppet army and the puppet army killed the Japanese army, causing conflicts between the two sides and the breakdown of trust.
Of course, this requires good marksmanship and the ability to take advantage of chaos.
However, these are no longer important. The puppet army and the Japanese are already jealous internally. The puppet army battalion commander was a little dazed. He clearly did not give the order. He wanted to step forward to explain and start a fight, but was stopped by the Japanese squadron leader. Killed on the spot.
Now, the conflict between the two sides has completely intensified.
Kong Jie, who was leading the charge, was so happy that he couldn't help but take another look at Wang An.
This kid is quite capable of causing trouble at critical moments.
kill--
Taking advantage of the gap between the puppet army and the Japanese army fighting each other, Kong Jie and Ding Wei led their troops to attack. Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan, who continued to launch fierce attacks on the flanks, also broke through the Japanese and puppet army's defense line.
In order to prevent accidental injury, Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, and the soldiers led by Kong Jie and Ding Wei had already thrown away the Japanese military caps they were wearing.
Kong Jie's original words were, "Shoot the devils who wear hats, and those who don't wear hats are all our brothers!"
It was easy to distinguish now, and the puppet soldiers inside Xiao'an Town threw away their hats early in the trembling.
Under the circumstances, the strength advantage of both sides was instantly reversed.
The Japs had suffered a lot of casualties, and they were under attack from the internal puppet army and the external Eighth Route Army. After a quick handover between the two sides, the battle lasted less than ten minutes, and the Japs inside Xiao'an Town were eliminated.
As for the puppet soldiers who were still caught in the middle and had been wavering, they disarmed, held their heads in their hands, and squatted together honestly.
The remaining puppet troops who defected before the battle and helped the Eighth Route Army kill the Japanese were lucky. However, out of safety concerns, Kong Jie asked Shen Quan to disarm them and gather together.
These puppet soldiers were aware of the situation and cooperated honestly.
The little devil definitely didn't cooperate. Didn't you see him fall to the ground?
At this point, the night attack on Xiao'an Town came to an end. From the time Kong Jie and his party fired the first shot to the end of the battle, it took no more than twenty minutes.
Time is still relatively short, and the Japanese reinforcements are probably still rushing to help. Kong Jie arranged: "Quickly clean the battlefield, gun towers, fortifications, and warehouses in the town. Don't leave anything behind for me. Take everything you can." Pull them away, and ten minutes later, the Japanese warehouses will be burned, the Japanese gun towers will be blown up, and everyone will evacuate on time!"
After the order was arranged, the soldiers took action quickly, and the disarmed puppet soldiers helped load the trucks and pull the goods.
When he met Ding Wei, Kong Jie said: "Old Ding, did you see it? I've figured it out early in the morning, even the extra puppet troops helping to pull the cart. How about the two of us strengthen it?" Platoon, I think it’s very difficult to pull the equipment and supplies from Xiao’an Town back to their roots.”
Ding Wei also felt emotional, as if it was the first time he saw Kong Jie commanding a war.
"Lao Kong, Lao Kong, you did a great job. I really didn't expect that in the past few years, you have become more and more skilled in fighting."
This is Ding Wei's true words. Kong Jie did give him a big surprise during this night attack on Xiao'an Town.
First, the commando team got into the tactics, with a solid foundation and tacit cooperation. Ding Wei never thought that the biggest nemesis of the Japanese gun towers was not a frontal attack or a large-caliber artillery, but a night-like cannon like this. A small group of combat troops that attack at night like ghosts.
Then to the cooperation between the puppet army inside and outside.
Ding Wei had just thought of eating this piece of fat in Xiao'an Town, but Kong Jie had already made preparations inside and outside.
"Haha, it's not easy to get you, Old Ding, to flatter you."
Kong Jie laughed, and while he was smiling, Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan ran over excitedly as if he had picked up some big treasure:
"Hehe, commander, we've sent it. This time we really sent it. Guess what I found in the Japanese arsenal? Good guy, a nearly brand-new Type 92 infantry cannon! I really don't have it. To think that the devil could still have such a treasure in his arsenal."
"..."
Kong Jie wanted to go up and kick the second battalion commander hard. This kid didn't have any eyesight.
Didn’t you see that guy Ding Wei is still here?
