The firepower on the Eighth Route Position has been strengthened again!
The second lieutenant was shot and the infantry lost command.
The artillery lieutenant's eyes were red, he had a headache, and his brain was confused. It had been so long, and the artillery had only fired one outrageous shell!
At this time, his warriors suffered heavy casualties, so he had no time to kill the infantry.
The infantry sergeant next to him quickly took over the command, sang loudly, and asked the warriors to use the cover of cars to lie down on the road and fight back against the Eighth Route Army. The gunshots were fired one after another again.
Amidst the rain of bullets, the sergeant lay on the ground holding a telescope to observe, and initially estimated that the Eighth Route Army did not have many troops.
This wave of harassment and shooting from the Eighth Route Army killed nearly half of the warriors, and only about thirty rifles were left shooting at the Eighth Route Army.
The heavy machine guns and grenade launchers were all knocked out by the Eighth Route Army. The artillery team fired only one shot and then stopped making any movement. At this time, the lieutenant was commanding the remaining two artillery groups, carrying the mortars and using the cover of cars to fly southward. Run on the ground.
Marksmen were arranged on the Eighth Route, and the artillery had to retreat to the open area in the south to set up artillery positions!
This completely avoids the eight-way precision shooting. The mortar is a direct-fire artillery gun. With artillery observers reporting parameters, it can easily bombard the eight-way position. This tactical arrangement is not brilliant, but it is the most reasonable arrangement at present.
In Cao Changjing's view, people on the Eighth Route Army were constantly being shot and fell down. Even though most of his men were newly recruited soldiers from China and well-trained warriors, they were by no means soft persimmons that Tubal Road could easily manipulate.
The sergeant felt a little aggrieved and had to admit that the Eighth Route Commander was also a master!
The sergeant was a veteran. What really caused heavy losses to the imperial army was the accuracy of the opponent's two machine guns and at least two or three rifles sandwiched between them!
Duan looked back and saw that the Imperial Alliance Army returning to the south was finally approaching their position, and the feeling in his throat was finally relieved.
Another grenade flew into the air from the Eighth Route Army position.
"Concentrate firepower? Kill the remaining grenade groups and machine guns on the 8th Route!" The sergeant realized that he seemed to have missed something. After fighting for a long time, of the two grenade groups on the 8th Route, there was still one shot and no one fired. Fa Di is throwing grenades on the position!
The eight-way grenade attack is unreliable, and so far it has not caused much damage to the imperial army.
Li Xiang was a little anxious. He fired six grenades in a row and didn't even blow up a Japanese car!
Another soldier from the second company who knew how to handle a grenade was shot in the chest and was bandaging for first aid.
The traffic rules of the Japanese cars were on the left, and the car's fuel tank was placed on the left. At this time, the convoy was heading west, and the company led by Hu Yi was in the north, and it could not take care of the fuel tank on the south side of the Japanese car.
The fuel tank cannot be leaked, and the sparks from the bullet cannot cause an explosion!
The tarpaulin on the car has also become a hero in intercepting grenades. The grenade that hits the tarpaulin and explodes cannot cause much damage to the car!
Another grenade was fired at the eighth car.
By chance, the grenade got into the car through the gap in the tarpaulin.
I have long seen the Japanese moving artillery shells from the car, and the grenade's target has always been this ammunition car.
The grenade fuse instantly ignited the explosive in the bomb. The explosive expanded violently and unbridled, and the gunpowder gas burst the grenade body, causing a violent explosion.
The powerful shock wave and high heat caused the gunpowder in the boxes of mortar shells in the carriage to expand rapidly.
Even if the transportation insurance is not removed, the artillery shells in the carriage will inevitably explode under high heat and shock waves.
Boom? Boom? Continuous loud noises suddenly sounded in the convoy. The mushroom clouds caused by the explosion attracted everyone's attention. The center of the mushroom cloud was red. After rising into the sky, it began to fade and darken, and finally turned into a gloomy one. black.
The powerful shock wave instantly scared the Japanese out of their wits. They turned their heads to look at the torn apart car in horror, and most of them stopped shooting for a while.
Seeing that the puppet troops were returning to defense in the distance to the south, there was no point in continuing the fight and it would only increase casualties.
"Withdraw!" Hu Yi ordered.
The squad and platoon leaders of the first company immediately followed the order to retreat. Even if the soldiers were unwilling to do so, they had no choice but to randomly grab the bullet casings next to them, get up and run away.
No one asked why they didn't charge. It was clear that there were not many remaining Japs.
Regardless of whether they were killed or injured, more than twenty people were put on stretchers.
Nearly a hundred of the Eighth Route Army fled, but the commanding sergeant did not dare to order a pursuit. Their mission was to protect the baggage.
The puppet troops finally returned to their position, but they could only see a line of dust churning in the distance left by the Eighth Route Army running. It should be that... they couldn't even see the shadow of the Eighth Route Army clearly.
The sergeant climbed into the car, looked around with a telescope, and found that the Eighth Route Army in the south had also escaped.
He jumped out of the car and wanted to find someone to slap him in the face to vent his anger, but unfortunately the people next to him were far away from each other.
After hesitating for a while, his hands were almost full of water, and finally he did not give the order for the Imperial Association Army to pursue.
Who knows that these bastards will stop making inroads in the east and west?
The baggage was saved...only one car was lost, and orders were immediately given to treat the wounded and rearrange defensive positions.
The sergeant thought about it, called his two men, and gave a few instructions. The two elites immediately ran north, intending to follow the group of eight soldiers and find out where they were going.
Send messengers to the west to report the battle to the captain.
The scale of this battle was not that big, but the imperial army had more than 20 dead and more than 40 seriously injured!
After everything was arranged, he ran to the side of the injured second lieutenant.
The second lieutenant was shot in the chest and fell into a coma. No one knew whether he would survive.
The military doctors accompanying the team set up a temporary field hospital in the west village. After simple bandaging, they quickly sent the Imperial Army to the field hospital for surgery.
The artillery lieutenant next to him was busy inspecting the mortars and looking at his elite men, and did not interfere at all with the sergeant's meticulous arrangements.
Inadvertently, he seemed to have forgotten that he was supposed to be attacked and called the nearby gun tower to report to friendly forces.
...
The entire battle process did not last more than twenty minutes.
The platoon leader of the first company, Zhao Tie, rushed to Hu Yi's side and asked angrily: "Company Commander Hu, I want to ask... Why didn't you charge when you had such a good opportunity just now?"
Hu Yi slowed down: "Are you in command or am I in command?"
Tiedan was stunned for a moment: "Of course it's you, but I thought it was an opportunity just now!"
After Hu Yi finished speaking, he quickened his pace: "Then shut up!"
Tiedan was stunned. He often asked the company commander for advice, and the company commander would tell him the reason every time. Unexpectedly, the ninth company was so unkind. He gritted his teeth and still asked the question: "We are fighting this battle. It’s meaningless at all, not only were there no seizures, but the soldiers didn’t even have much ammunition left.”
Hu Yi didn't look back, only replied lightly: "Obey the order."
Tie Dan's face turned red. This battle was obviously not worth the gains. How could the man named Hu be so confident...
The big dog Tang who was following behind felt good about himself. His performance was really eye-catching. He was so cool as he shook his dog head!
The newly recruited follower Wen Wuquan... was holding a rifle and looking at Wan Shaoxi with vigilance.
Hu Yi was bold enough to take a prisoner to the battlefield, and he was not afraid of the guy making a fuss and revealing his true identity.
The dusty warriors behind had not recovered from the excitement of the battle just now, and they were bragging to each other about how many Japanese they had deceived in the battle just now.
"As soon as I shot him, the devil immediately lay down and didn't get up for a long time. If he doesn't die, who will?"
"Hey, I hit two, but it's a pity that the devil kept rolling around on the ground..."
"I can still feel my blood boiling from the sound of Platoon Leader Li blowing up the Japanese car."
"What do you mean...you didn't fire a single shot?"
"I handed the grenade to Platoon Commander Li. Let me tell you, the grenade that hit that car was the one I handed to Platoon Commander Li Xiang..."
"Captain Hu's machine gun is very good at shooting. We can learn a lot from this experience..."
"None of us know that Captain Hu of the Independent Regiment is good at shooting machine guns. What do you want to say? What experience have you learned? Tell everyone..."
"First rapid burst fire, then precise burst fire, first hit the enemy's grenade, then the enemy's machine gun, and finally deal with the enemy's mortar... and also shoot a shuttle to change places?"
"You haven't seen how powerful Big Dog Brother is. He shoots one person at a time and never lets him go. He can knock down at least twenty of them by himself!" Wen Wuquan couldn't help but interrupt.
"Hey, there are only about a hundred enemies in total. He can defeat twenty by himself?"
"You're right, so what kind of bird did we shoot with the number 100?"
