The outline of the village is hidden in the dark plain under the hazy moonlight.

A dark figure crawled out from a stove with a collapsed wall, followed closely by another.

Lying on the mound of dirt that had mostly torn down the courtyard wall, and observing for a while through the light emitted by the fire in the village, a dark figure said: "The observation post said that there is almost a company of puppet troops. No. 100, we have to wait for the old man." When Meng and the others come over, let's cooperate inside and outside."

No one answered. After jumping into the mound, a 79 rifle appeared immediately. There was a nervous eye behind the flat sight. As the cold wind drifted by, an excited voice finally muttered in response: "There are so many security guards." Jun... I can really enjoy the fight this time, but why do I have to wait until the middle of the night?"

There are more and more rifles placed next to them. I pick up grenades and put them forward. The bayonet makes a clanging sound when it rubs against the muzzle of the gun...

"You're so anxious, wait until they get into trouble before you fish in troubled waters." A squad leader who was ambushing in the village slapped the neck of the one next to him who made a noise.

"Hey, can you please be gentle?"

A squad of Japs and a company of puppet troops were stationed in the village.

A team of more than 100 people swept through the area for a whole day without even finding a trace of the guerrillas. I heard from the ordering soldier that they had already caught the tail of the guerrillas who were moving the villagers, and it was estimated that they would be able to encircle them tomorrow.

More than a dozen security forces marched in unison, no one rushed in, and everything went according to plan.

The sergeant who was looking at the map in the dilapidated house was determined and carefully marked the approximate range of the guerrilla activities on the simple map.

Judging from the picture, if all the ministries are suppressed as a whole, there will be no room for the guerrillas to move.

The current position of his troops is exactly in the direction of the guerrillas' march.

However, the headquarters did not ask them to defend and block on the spot. They simply said... All escape routes of the guerrillas have been blocked.

The sergeant seemed a little worried. He had long heard that the Tubal guerrillas could go to heaven and earth. This was just a boast, but they had seen this happen many times.

Obviously, there is probably a tunnel in the village where they are currently stationed.

But after marching for most of the day and arriving at the village when it was almost dark, the sergeant organized the puppet troops to search for tunnels everywhere in the village. Unfortunately, nothing was found!

The sergeant knew very well that there was definitely a tunnel dug by Tubal Road in the village. As for whether the Tubal Road was hidden or not, it was hard to judge!

Maybe the Eighth Route Army knew that the imperial army was sweeping in and sealed all the tunnel entrances in advance. Through the doorways without doors, they saw that the village was full of houses with earthen walls that had been pushed down not long ago. Maybe...the tunnel entrances were on those earthen walls. under the wall.

But he didn't have time to dig those mice out of their holes now.

The sergeant became even more upset when he thought that there was no way to find the rats hiding underground.

If you don't obey the second lieutenant's order and stay in this village for ten days and a half, you will definitely starve to death or force the rats underground!

It's a pity that this time the headquarters issued a strict order and you must obey the unified command!

We can only stay in this village for one night, and we may not be able to find those mouse holes even if we put in all the effort. It’s really pointless!

The eyes that were looking at the map began to blur, and the already small eyes became smaller and smaller. The sergeant sat there and fell asleep.

In the kitchen next to him, a pair of bright eyes flashed through the stove hole pressed against the inverted wall.

Bang, a gunshot suddenly came from the north of the village, clear and loud, suddenly waking up the night.

The puppet soldiers in the village immediately emerged from the broken houses in panic.

The Japanese Army Sergeant also woke up, immediately put away the things on the table, rushed out of the yard, and ran towards the north entrance of the village in the direction of the gunshot.

When he arrived at the entrance to the village in the north, he pulled the rifle sideways and did a forward somersault, lying on the ground. Then he pulled the rifle and pointed it at the darkness. His eyes widened, trying to see clearly what was happening under the moonlight in the north of the village. His skillful tactical movements... made him I admire myself.

"Report to Taijun, the location of the gunshot is due north by east, about 400 meters away!" The puppet observation post nearby quickly reported with hand gestures.

The Japanese didn't understand Chinese well enough, so they didn't understand it at all, but they could understand the four fingers of the gesture... and the direction the puppet soldiers were pointing.

With a dark face, the Japanese followed the direction pointed by the puppet army and decided to wait for the guerrillas to fire another shot.

Bang, the second gunshot.

Unfortunately, the location of the gunfire was in the south of the village. The Japanese were stunned for a moment, shook their heads and looked behind them, but could not see anything. They had to judge secretly: the guerrillas should be preparing to harass. Could it be... This is the legendary figure on Tubal Road The enemy is stationed in me and harassing me?

While I was guessing whether the next shot should be from the east or the west, another shot was fired from the east.

My usual guess is that the next shot will be to the west!

Bang, as the Japanese wished, another shot was fired from the west.

The sergeant felt a little proud.

He even looked at Beimong nervously, so now should it be Beifang's turn to shoot again?

expect....

north.

A soldier pulled the trigger of the gun, and the squad leader next to him immediately became happy: "What the hell, it's your turn, and you can't even make a cold shot?"

"I'm sorry, squad leader, why can't the gun bolt be pulled?"

"This broken gun has a lot of trouble, hurry up and kick it." The squad leader next to him immediately gave on-site guidance.

The soldier believed it, quickly pulled the gun back, kicked the bolt with his foot, and finally ejected the bullet casing.

The squad leader continued to explain: "Let me tell you, this gun has this weird problem. After shooting, the bolt gets hot. If a little bit of soil gets into it at this time, the bolt will get stuck. I usually ask you to practice maintenance. Before loading the magazine, You still don’t believe it after pulling the bolt several times. Do you understand now? If you are really on the battlefield and the bullet is not loaded, the enemy may rush in front of you at that moment. Only then will you be able to win. You cry."

There was no movement to the north, and there was no movement in other directions.

This made the sergeant at the entrance of the village a little dumbfounded. The legendary eight-way guerrilla tactics...meaning that the enemy is stationed and we are harassing...could it be that one shot in all directions is enough?

After waiting for a while, there was only one gunshot from four directions, indicating that there were probably not many guerrillas coming. The sergeant was convinced that we were now raiding the Tubal guerrillas like you, but you dared to come looking for death. ..

Do you think you are harassing outside the village and I am the only one who can do nothing to you?

There were troops stationed in each village near the location of the gunshot. According to the pre-war arrangement, they should have sent troops to the direction of the gunshot to surround them. They would first build a line of defense with the neighboring villages, and then search inward as a whole. Push forward!

This is the most classic encirclement tactic in infantry drills. As long as you enter the encirclement, no one can escape!

The collaborative capabilities of the Imperial Alliance Army may not be very good, but under the guidance of the elites, it is not difficult to form an encirclement.

As a result, in the villages near the gunfire, the puppet troops who had completed their assembly began to spread out as required by the training.

Carrying a rifle and a machine gun, they did not advance toward the place where the gunfire was fired. Instead, they stretched like a ray toward the nearby village under the moonlight.

According to the plan, a line will be formed first, and then the surrounding and shrinking troops will be eliminated to eliminate the harassing guerrillas.

"Report, the enemies in the nearby villages have come out. The intelligence we got is really accurate. It's just as the intelligence said, they are preparing to surround us!"

"Okay! Hey, are all the mines strung up?" Chen Chong looked at the village in the distance excitedly!

"Hey, we've already hung up, and we're just waiting for the puppet soldiers to come and try something new!" A squad leader behind him was full of expectations.

This battle was somewhat special. A company of puppet troops and a squad of Japanese soldiers were stationed in the village to supervise the battle.

And underground, a platoon of eight soldiers is like the monkey who got into the belly of Princess Iron Fan. As for the result, what will happen?

No one knows now, but everyone is looking forward to the next battle to test the results of their respective combat plans.

In response to the Japanese's spring security clearance plan and the enemy's possible mopping up tactics, the division had already formulated a variety of combat plans based on the terrain.

As for the main force of the sweep being the security forces, it was somewhat unexpected.

But this is not important. To target the enemy in encircling the cage or attacking separately... the same old trick is still used. The method of dealing with it is not complicated: concentrate the troops, attack a little, succeed in one blow, never hesitate to fight, and immediately stay away. Escape thousands of miles.

One of the important reasons why the division reopened the canceled Anti-Japanese War class was to promote the use of landmines, a deadly weapon, in battles.

The main function of landmines is to disrupt transportation, delay enemy attacks, provide defensive early warning, and even limit enemy movements when used properly.

Only beneficial to the defensive side!

Due to the insufficient quality and quantity of gunpowder, the Eighth Route Army's homemade mines were not very powerful. A close explosion could not even kill an enemy at all, but the sound and shock wave of the explosion would definitely injure one or two.

In this way, it will definitely pose a great psychological threat to the enemies being swept away!

By then, it may not be safe to walk on the main road or open a door. I wonder how he can live his life like this?
