The unexpected excitement in the valley shocked the Japanese on the mountain ridge.
There were dense gunshots and explosions, and little flashes of light.
The captain had been on the battlefield for a long time, so he didn't understand that Tubalu, who was surrounded on the mountain ridge, wanted to run away.
Although I don’t know what method Balu used to slip down the cliff in a short time, but he absolutely couldn’t escape from under his nose!
A squadron was ordered to reinforce the valley, and the remaining men immediately launched an attack on the ridge.
Since the Eighth Route Army has broken through, there are definitely not many people left on the mountain ridge. ,
After capturing the mountain ridge, you can condescend to form a pincer attack with the defenders in the valley on the Eighth Route Army breaking through!
Even though there were not many shells left, the captain still went down to the mountain ridge and started shelling.
As for aviation? If they wait until dawn and Tubal Road breaks through successfully, what's the point of their coming.
There were not many artillery shells. According to the requirements of the operation code, some were left for emergency attack. After two rounds, they were gone.
Chug tug tug tug…
The sound rhythm of the Taisho 3rd year heavy machine gun began to play under the moonlit night, and the familiar flames flickered.
The tracer bullets guided the trajectory, and the whistling bullets smashed crazily towards the Tubal Road position.
Attack requires speed and decisiveness.
Amidst the suppressive sound of light and heavy machine guns, the Japanese infantrymen had already climbed up from the ground, charging up the mountain with their waists crouching and howling.
The tracer bullets brought a strong impact to both sides like meteors. Amidst the popping sound, the howling of the mountain wind could no longer be heard.
However, the sound of an ever-accelerating heart beat thumped in his head.
I heard from veterans that new recruits are afraid of cannons and veterans are afraid of machine guns.
Those who stayed in the Taoist sect finally understood what a hail of bullets meant.
The machine gun is like a meat grinder on the battlefield, a wheezing demon. Whoever gets bitten will die... well... or else they will lose their arms and legs!
The shells made a sizzling sound and were completely blind. In the blink of an eye, the brother next to him might have disappeared.
The Japanese machine guns were biting the north side of the mountain ridge like mad dogs. Fortunately, neither Battalion Commander Hu nor the old bandit seemed to be afraid of the hail of bullets.
You can even hear the hoarse voice of the old bandit Qi in the gap between the trajectory of a certain machine gun, reminding him not to show up.
The new recruits of Daomen were luckier than many veterans of the Ninth Battalion, because...the first time they went to the frontal battlefield, they not only witnessed Japanese artillery fire, but also witnessed the dense machine gun suppression of the enemy in some companies of the Ninth Battalion.
It turns out that this is what a hail of bullets is all about!
As long as you don't show your head, the little devil can't beat the Taoist...
The Japs below the ridge were originally not too far from the top of the ridge.
The remaining reconnaissance platoon did not have a chief officer, because... the chief officer ran away.
The reconnaissance platoon has a complicated staff. Luo Fugui left six big dog squads for Yatou's support, Li Xiang, Ma Liang, and Tian Sanqi each sent half a squad of soldiers, plus the team from Dao Sect.
Ma Liang left the team to find reinforcements. When he left, he took with him the machine gun crew and Daomen. Currently, there are twenty-four people left on the mountain ridge, including the old bandit Qi.
It is naturally impossible to stop the Japs head-on. What Qi Lao Qi relies on is the large number of landmines that Li Xiang and Tian Sanqi planted on the Japs' offensive route...
Perhaps the battlefield observers saw that the shooting effect was not ideal, and Tubalu did not return a single shot.
The density of Japanese machine gun fire finally began to weaken...
Wan Baoxi is the mainstay of the Big Dog team, and now there are faint signs of replacing Li Xiang as the heavy fire team of the Nine Battalions.
After lying down on the mountain ridge and adjusting the mortar, the bullets fired above my head became much weaker, and I was about to take a breather and rest for a while.
Bandit Qi, who came back from the cliff, came to him and shouted in a hoarse voice: "After shooting all the shells in a while, you go first!"
Wan Shanxi nodded: "Brother Qi, if you run away in a while, don't lose the mortar..."
Old Bandit Qi was speechless: "Can't you take it away by yourself?"
"There are only two of us. How can I carry this gun barrel seat and gun mount?"
"Don't worry, just leave the seat behind. I'll send someone to throw it down the mountain later. If it hits someone, don't blame me..."
"I mean take it away. If you just throw it away, if it is smashed and deformed, you can still use it..."
"When all the shells are gone, this thing is as useless as a fire stick. Besides, isn't it just a mortar? If you mess with me from now on, not to mention mortars, even heavy artillery will be useful." you play."
"Hehe, even though I am the squad leader now, I will be promoted to platoon leader sooner or later. How about hanging out with you, a temporary acting platoon leader? Is there something wrong with your brain?"
"Haha, if I'm in the security group, I can be the deputy of the group, no problem..."
"Tsk, what is the security team?"
"I seem to have heard that some people also joined the Eighth Route Army from the puppet army, right?"
"It was a desperate and helpless move..."
"Japanese vanguard troops, two hundred meters away..." Observer Wen Wuquan asked at the top of his voice, "Platoon leader Qi, do you want to send a signal to the brothers hiding in front to pull the mines?"
The machine gun bullets above his head had become sporadic. Qi Lao Qi raised his telescope and looked at the smoke-shrouded position to the north: "You bastard, do you know how far two hundred meters is?"
"Isn't it just two hundred steps? Do you think I'm stupid?"
"It's a waste to use dozens of kilograms of explosives to blow up a few Japanese soldiers in front!" Qi Laohua put down his telescope and waved to Wen Wuquan, "Let the correspondent tell them to calm down..."
The Japanese only had two machine guns left to suppress them, and the sound of bullets hitting the rocks was much quieter.
The intensive gunfire in the valley gradually gained the upper hand.
Waiting for boredom, Wan Xiangmao ran to the edge of the cliff with his waist and poked his head into the valley to take a look.
After a while, the guy suddenly hurried back to Old Bandit Qi.
There was joy in the voice: "Hurry up and lend me the telescope. The situation in the valley is a bit strange..."
"What's weird?" Not long after Qi Lao Qi came back from the cliff, he followed Wan Shixi to the cliff again.
Old Bandit Qi was not stupid. His command position was not at the highest point of the ridge that curved from east to west.
Instead, he stayed close to the edge of the west cliff, so that he could observe what was going on in the valley at any time while commanding and blocking the Japanese attack.
Experienced veterans can judge the shooting direction from the shape of the muzzle flash.
Wan Shanxi held up a telescope with one hand and pointed at the valley with the other: "Look, there seem to be two groups of people fighting against the group in the middle below. We should be the battalion commander and others who are breaking through..."
Hearing what Wan Shaoxi said, Qi Laoqi immediately realized the problem and grabbed the telescope: "That's not right, we have reinforcements coming?"
"Look, there is a lot less gunfire in the middle. The battalion commander and the others will be able to break through the Japanese defense line very quickly. The battalion commander didn't tell us to hold on when he left? How about we pull the mines and run away now?"
Old Bandit Qi's tone was full of contempt: "Two of your three sentences are about running away. Can you be successful?"
Wan Xixi couldn't help curling his lips and sighing: "I have been fighting for so many years. Is there ever a time when I didn't fight for a while, then retreat, then block, and finally escape?"
Old Bandit Qi was stunned for a moment. What this guy said seemed to make sense!
The two of them were pointing towards the valley, and a soldier hurried from the mountain ridge to the west end of the position: "Report to the platoon leader, the Japs' leading soldiers have entered a hundred meters, and the Japs are behind them in darkness, and the number is unknown..."
Wan Shaoxi jumped up from the edge of the cliff: "Then what are you waiting for? Beat him like a bastard!"
After saying that, he hurriedly ran to the mortar position not far away.
Qi Lao Qi put away the telescope and shouted to the correspondent: "Let the Taoist people go down to see the situation of the battalion commander and the others..."
After saying that, he turned around and returned to his command position...
He raised the telescope and took a look, and while pulling the quilt on himself, he shouted to the observer next to him: "I'm a good boy...fire two flares quickly, leave the mines at a position of 100 meters, and pull out the two mines in front." ..”
