The valley is not the kind of terrain where two mountains sandwich a valley.
On the contrary, it looks like a small trumpet in the north and a big one in the south.
Both sides are in the most open area.
The terrain is constantly undulating, densely covered with rocks, and prone to flash floods during the rainy season. There are many grasses and shrubs in the estuary valley, and occasionally there are not too tall miscellaneous trees.
There are woods on the higher ground on both sides, but they are so densely covered with thorns that it is impossible to pass through them. It is simply unrealistic to outflank them from the thorn bushes.
It just so happens that someone wants to set up an ambush right under the opponent's nose.
Gao Yidao didn't think that the Japs had been ambushed even once, and that the Nine Battalions could still succeed.
There are more than a hundred soldiers, divided into four groups, each group has more than 20 soldiers.
One group is more than 20 meters south of the road. Hidden are three machine gun groups led by Luo Fugui. They are a class of militiamen who have just taken the guns and are not yet proficient in playing with them.
Another group was more than ten meters north of the road. The old bandit Qi, who had not fully recovered from his injuries, led the Hongying Platoon, the same three machine gun groups, and more than ten militiamen.
The terrain on both sides is slightly higher and the middle is lower, so you are not afraid of hurting your own people when shooting. As for the ricochet, it is really unlucky to be knocked down by your own people.
The middle group was hidden and blocked directly to the east of the rugged mountain road passing through it. Staff Officer Hu went to the town in person, while the real commander Gao Yidao stood aside and watched.
More than fifty meters behind Hu Yi, Li Xiang was carrying ten thousand rifles and a class of people, preparing to use chemical bombs.
The remaining Daomen led the militia hunters as a reserve team...
As soon as the order was given, the reserve team disappeared.
Gao Yidao was dumbfounded. There was actually a hunting bow wielder in the Nine Battalions, which always valued firepower...
But three of them still had three submachine guns hanging on their bodies...
An important factor for a successful ambush is that the enemy must enter the ambush circle!
Otherwise it's a joke.
Obviously, the Japanese did not seem to be pursuing the Second Battalion and the student team.
The layout of the Ninth Battalion... was almost the same as the position that his Second Battalion had just led the student team to set up.
In other words, there is an extra grenade squad. Judging from Hu Yi's arrangement, he should be planning to use them to attract the Japanese to attack.
In terms of position layout and troop arrangement, Hu Yi did not hide or hide.
Gao Yidao was wondering what the dozen or so people carrying hunting bows and submachine guns on their chests were jumping into the woods on both sides...
The Japanese grenadier and the ammunition hand work in teams of two. Under normal circumstances, each carries eight rounds of grenades, which is a base of sixteen rounds of grenades.
In the wave of shooting just now, the Japanese grenade group had destroyed at least half of their bases!
He never understood that with Hu Yi's temper, it was absolutely impossible not to fight back when being beaten, but with the current situation of the enemy, it was simply impossible to knock out the Japanese grenade.
By the way, Li Xiang fired chemical bombs...
That thing had tasted the feeling of ecstasy when he was fighting in the warehouse of Jinscao Cave.
When the reserve team left, several of them seemed to be wearing protective masks?
He knows Hu Yi very well. Hu Yi will definitely find a way to deal with the Japanese grenade launchers, and then the Japanese machine guns...
Thinking of this, he immediately muttered to the correspondent next to him: "You go east immediately. When the battle starts, count the firing frequency of the Japanese grenade. After every five Japanese rounds, ask the Second Battalion and Captain Qin to come over immediately!"
His plan was very simple. If the Japanese bombed the Ninth Battalion like the last time they attacked them, the Japanese grenades wouldn't be able to hold on for long. Wait until the Japanese grenades are almost done or Li Xiang uses the evil smoking chemical. After the bombing, let the second battalion and the student team launch a charge against the Japanese.
The Ninth Battalion has a fatal flaw, they generally don't charge!
Today, let the eggless guys like the Ninth Battalion see how the Second Battalion shows off its power!
Gao Yidao said to Hu Yi next to him with a dark face: "Why didn't you use chemical bombs before?"
Hu Yi shook his head: "The grenade can only hit more than a hundred meters. It's too early for you to do it yourself. Who can blame you?"
"Can't you hit 500 meters?"
"That's a grenade..."
"What's the difference?"
"Don't you have it too? Haven't you tried it?"
Gao Yidao was speechless. The Independent Group existed before Hu came. That thing was just a decoration.
There are no grenades to use!
But since they learned about the usefulness of the grenade, the Second Battalion regarded the grenade as a treasure. As for training... isn't fighting on the battlefield also training?
The night before yesterday, when he was blocking the Japs, the grenades had already been shot clean. Otherwise, with the few manpower of his second battalion, it would be impossible for him to be a rival to the Japs in the squadron.
Who knows the difference between a grenade and a chemical bomb after they are fired...
The Japanese came up, and a small team advanced alternately in the bushes on both sides of the mountain road.
The distance was estimated to be about a hundred meters, and the Japanese figures could not be seen at all. Only the branches and leaves of the bushes were flying around as bullets whizzed around them.
It is very simple to judge the situation of the Japanese infantry. As long as they are within the machine gun ballistic range, there will definitely be none.
It is common sense that the infantry is always in front of the machine gun.
Sergeant Sasaki was very cautious. He believed that there should not be many people on the Eighth Route Army in front. Otherwise, he had five light machine guns and would not be able to run away in one attack.
It is not easy to train an excellent machine gun shooter. Anyone who mounts a machine gun is not called a machine gunner, so that thing must be fed with live ammunition.
He simply didn't believe that Tubalu, which lacked ammunition, could produce many outstanding people... They shouldn't be called qualified machine gunners!
Besides, the imperial army's grenades have wiped out all the Tubal machine gunners, and now the main thing is to guard against the Eighth Route marksmen hiding in the bushes.
It's very simple. A team with five machine guns will definitely not be short of marksmen!
Because having a machine gun means having bullets, there will naturally be a few rifle shooters with accurate marksmanship.
Due to terrain factors, the sergeant felt that there was nothing wrong with the second lieutenant's arrangement.
The elite of the imperial army really shouldn't fight for casualties with Tubal Road.
The leading detachment was attacked and completely ambushed by an eight-way machine gun.
Watching the attacking Eighth Route Army escape with their own eyes, maybe there was no Eighth Route Army at all in the bushes in front except for the bodies that had been shot in the back and died by the elites of the Imperial Army!
Moreover, they did not encounter any of the landmines Tubalu was best at along the way, indicating that Tubalu had also hastily set up a position and it was just an encounter.
Besides, the imperial army clearly knew that Tubal Road was ahead. Would Tubal Road be stupid enough to continue the ambush?
Even if there were, two waves of grenades from the imperial army could wipe out the Tubal Army!
The sergeant directed the elites to keep moving forward. It was not easy to walk in the bushes, and the team almost moved along the gaps in the bushes that they had made during their eight-way escape.
The light machine gun cleared the way, and there was not even a single return shot in the bushes.
It should be not far from where the vanguard was attacked. According to the vanguard's previous report, there should be a three-way intersection in the front.
The sergeant occasionally poked his head around and could see traces of a path in the bushes in the valley to the north.
Along the way, no corpses of elite elite soldiers were seen.
Unconsciously, the elites quickened their pace.
The Japanese Army Sergeant suddenly felt something was wrong and waved the machine gun next to him to stop shooting.
Follow the bird song to stop the team.
Another way to determine whether there is someone hiding in the bushes in the valley is to look and listen.
Watch to see if there are birds and butterflies flying, and listen to see if there are insects chirping!
After waiting quietly for a while, several butterflies flew from both sides.
The unknown chirping insects around them started chirping without any fear of the imperial army.
In early summer, the valley that had just gone through a "war" seemed to have returned to calm.
The air is still filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke, which is a bit pleasant to inhale into the nose.
There was calm ahead, the mountain wind blew by, and the grass growing on the mountain wall kept swaying.
The shrubs broken by bullets emit a refreshing plant fragrance...
Time passes by slowly, second by second, into one minute...
[Some brothers suggested updating regularly, so... I’ll give it a try for the time being. If I write it at night, I’ll post it at 7:30 in the morning. If there’s nothing else to do during the day, I can update two chapters. I’ll try to take the lunch break to code it out. I’ll take the time to revise it in the afternoon and schedule it at 17:30. issue.
