It can be said that the Japanese commandos were lucky because the minefield was placed about 150 meters away from the village entrance.
Therefore, their choice to launch gas grenades from a distance of about 200 meters allowed them to successfully complete the mission.
It can also be said that they are unlucky. If they choose to push another 50 meters, they can trigger the "mine" before launching the attack.
At that time, they were all lying down, so the damage they received would naturally be reduced by more than 80%.
How could it be like now? It wasn't that the femoral artery was punctured and the blood column continued to surge.
Even if the waist is pierced, there will be no chance of love madness in the future.
Many others have directly lost their male dignity.
The 2nd company commander was the one who reacted the fastest. He immediately shouted: "Counterattack! Take the gas mask off the Japanese!"
Under the cover of a group of soldiers wearing gas masks, a dozen soldiers with mild poisoning pounced on the castrated Japanese veterans like hungry tigers.
Although it is said that Zhu Han prepared sufficient quantities and complete types of supplies for the guard.
But there really weren't many gas masks, only about a hundred that had been seized before.
After all, there really isn't much rubber here on the Eighth Road, and there's no way to set up a production line.
Therefore, you can only use gauze wrapped with a few layers of charcoal powder to make the most basic gas mask.
The most you can do is to pee on it before putting it on, which can be regarded as soaking in a weak alkaline liquid.
But this thing is the most primitive and rough thing after all. It cannot completely isolate the outside air, so it is far less effective than the Japanese gas mask.
"The Japanese troops are coming! The 2nd Company pushes them back!"
"Everyone else retreats to the cave! Seal the doors and windows!"
"If you can still move after you withdraw, rinse the wounded body with clean water immediately!"
"Battal Commander! I can't see where the enemy is!"
Zhu Xi is very anxious now, after all, the gas masks are enough for one company.
If the Japanese army came up at this time, the less than a hundred people from the 2nd company and this group of poisoned wounded would not be able to stop them.
Immediately ordered: "Artillery! According to the settings, Zhu Yuan points out the way for me!"
"yes!"
Soon, several more familiar 60mm mortar sounds rang out.
Like the Japanese, the shells they fired did not explode, but quietly set the entire mountain road on fire.
After this round of burning bombs was fired, the passive situation of the soldiers was immediately restored a lot.
Not only did he kill many enemies, he also lit up the battlefield to point out the enemy's direction to the soldiers.
But the main tactical function of this thing is not to kill people, but to block roads.
After this round of flames burned, the following troops were directly treated as if they were dead, and they were unable to advance at all.
A Songkou squadron only has 180 men, and a second company can still fight with 92 men.
Don't look at it, the Japs are twice as many as the soldiers.
My place was full of poisonous smoke. Although it caused us a lot of trouble, it objectively concealed my identity even more.
Your side is so bright that I can clearly see not only your position, but also your every move.
How do you fight light against darkness?
So the Guard really doesn't waste your time at all.
When the poisonous smoke finally dissipated, the sky turned white.
This night was difficult for both parties.
For the Bear Valley United, the most courageous and capable veteran team was all killed in action.
The combat effectiveness of the troops that lost these veterans dropped by at least 20%.
What's more, another squadron is gone.
After all, nearly 700 people have been crushed in this place.
They only brought a total of 1,700 people. If two squadrons were excluded for ammunition transportation, the number of combat personnel would be cut in half.
As for the soldiers in the factory, even though they responded very promptly, excluding the sacrificed soldiers, nearly one-fifth of them were still poisoned and were completely unable to participate in the subsequent battle.
"Plane! There is a plane!"
Hearing such words, all the soldiers subconsciously looked to the horizon.
Only four small dots of aircraft could be seen flying slowly in the direction of the sun.
"Anti-air raids!"
"Ready to fight!"
The voice of the order was passed layer by layer, and soon the soldiers who received the order became busy.
But they are not the only ones who are busy.
This time, the Japanese didn't want to play any tricks. Gas bombs and heavy machine guns were all ready.
Sharpening his sword, he planned to use the plane to take down Guan Jianao's enemies in one fell swoop.
"Assemble! Assemble! Prepare to attack!"
Just when the Japs had just assembled, the sound of artillery fire suddenly sounded from another hill to their south.
The Type 31 60mm light force is responsible for fire coverage, and the Type 92 infantry gun is responsible for precision strikes.
Still a familiar recipe, still a familiar taste.
Obviously when the guard came out, there were 800 soldiers not counting the artillery.
But now there are only 600 people in Guanjianaoli.
The rest, plus the guerrillas who followed, are all hiding in a place called Liusunao in the south.
It is higher than Guanjianao and steeper than Guanjianao.
Here, you and Guan Jianao can be like each other's horns and support each other.
But yesterday, Guanjianao fought fiercely all afternoon.
Even when they were attacked at night, they were in such a passive situation that they didn't even let them move.
The purpose is to make you Japanese believe that the only dangerous place is Guan Jianao in front of you.
What you are waiting for is the moment when all your Japs gather!
Do you think the plane is your big killer and you can get on it when they come?
Little did I know that this was the real surprise for me.
When they come, you won't be able to get on.
"Machine gunner! Enter the preset air defense position!"
"All machine gunners! Replace with special armor-piercing bullets!"
Don't look at the fact that the soldiers don't have dedicated anti-aircraft machine guns at all.
But where is this place?
This is the rear area!
The Japanese high-ranking officials have never paid much attention to our Eighth Route Army.
After Yangmingpu Airport was destroyed, are there any large airports nearby?
Do you have frontline bombers here?
Have the few light bombers been sent to Huangyan Cave?
The four planes that can come in a swipe are guaranteed to be fighter jets.
Since it's a fighter jet, you have to dive, right?
Since you're going to dive, you have to come down, right?
You have four aircraft, each with two 7.7mm machine guns. (1997 War)
I have two positions, each with 60 7.62mm machine guns.
Do you really think we are still using the Czech style with a magazine of 20 rounds?
The B30 armor-piercing projectile I used can even penetrate a two-millimeter-thick steel plate within one kilometer.
Do you dare to get within 500 meters of me with a plane that doesn’t even have protective armor?
Come on, let’s hurt each other!
The so-called air defense means nine out of ten air defenses.
I don't need to shoot you down, I just need to use a crossfire net to seal off the position that poses the greatest threat to me.
It forces you to change direction and prevents you from shooting accurately.
As long as you use up the measly 500 rounds of ammunition for each machine gun, then my purpose of air defense will be achieved.
If we can fight another one, how dare you do it a second time with your impoverished imperialism?
So, fight!
Everyone got into fighting position.
Every magazine is filled with bullets.
Each grenade has its back cover opened.
kill!
…
"Comrades, work harder!"
"Follow closely, each squad leader is optimistic about the soldiers in the squad, don't let anyone fall behind!"
"Don't worry, captain, you still don't understand your soldiers? How can there be a coward?"
A group of Eighth Route Army soldiers were advancing towards Guanjianao at full speed, fully armed.
"Hey, captain. I'd say these factory guard soldiers are really good. They only have so few people and they dare to plan on forming a Japanese army."
A battalion commander ran beside the regimental commander, obviously an old comrade.
"But let me tell you, although our courage is commendable, we are going to save their lives. We can't make this trip in vain. We need to give them some compensation, right?"
Of course the leader knew he was joking and replied with a smile:
"Then how much compensation do you plan to ask for?"
"Hey, we ran so far to save them, and even dropped the mission of destroying the attack. I want 200 guns from them. 2,000 rounds of ammunition is not too much, right?"
"You really dare to open your teeth? The arsenal is real, but they are not from the Huangyandong arsenal. Are you afraid of scaring others?"
"Indeed, how about... half?"
While they were chatting, a Japanese fighter plane flew overhead, billowing black smoke and escaping hastily towards the horizon.
Everyone was stunned, and the leader immediately gave the order: "Run forward!"
