The soldiers of the 55th Army were mentally prepared to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, but they did not expect that when the enemy was placed fifty meters away by them and then fired machine guns with their colleagues on the city gate, those who had been showing off their power before After leaving dozens of corpses behind, the little devils all scurried away.
The soldiers of the 55th Army were confused and even thought this was a trick of the enemy.
They had fought against the Japs before, and they were not so weak at all. They only lasted for less than five seconds when they rushed forward, and then they retreated, leaving corpses on the ground.
At this time, even Wang Gang and Shen Mogan on the city wall felt that the little devil had gone downhill?
However, at this moment, the sharp sound of breaking through the air sounded again, and the Japs' artillery attack came again.
Without waiting for Shen Mogan's order, everyone quickly jumped into the trenches again, and some even started to dig bomb shelters.
Bullet avoidance craters are still very useful at certain times. As long as you are not directly hit by artillery shells, you can definitely survive the enemy's artillery attack.
So after experiencing an enemy artillery attack, the soldiers gradually entered the state. If the little Japanese don't attack with artillery, then I will dig trenches and avoid bomb craters.
Although occasionally soldiers were blown away by falling artillery shells, most of the shells were unable to reach the soldiers digging defensive pits in the trenches.
But Zhang Guangsan didn't know that, and he thought that his tactics were very effective, and even his subordinates fled back. He thought that these people had understood the essence of the imperial army's tactics. After all, Major Sakata Nakajima just said, if you can't rush forward, just retreat, then mark the enemy's firepower points, and launch another artillery attack.
So Zhang Guang dispersed the artillery bombardment, the infantry charged, and then the artillery bombarded after the infantry charged. It was a great time.
And Sakata Chuuji ignored it, because he liked this kind of battle the most, and just asked his Japanese soldiers to lead a few Chao Xian soldiers to investigate nearby.
In other words, what Sakata Chuuji was afraid of was not the 55th Army or the 56th Army, but the Chinese lunatic Dragon Boat Festival.
Therefore, his purpose in sending out scouts was that if he discovered the Dragon Boat Festival troops, he would be the first to run away without a trace. As for Zhang Guangsan and this group of idiots, let them stay here and serve the Empire of Japan. Anyway, there are many idiots like this in Chaoxian.
But at the same time, the 55th Army became more and more courageous as they fought. Because these devils are so weak. They know how to bombard them, and they are no match for the 55th Army in a head-on battle.
However, the ammunition consumption was a bit high. In this day, they had delivered ammunition five times, but the little devils still kept coming up to kill people.
Shen Mogan felt that he must find a way to get some ammunition back, otherwise even if the enemy could not attack, they would eventually be unable to stop the Japanese because they would run out of ammunition and food.
At this time, Wang Gang suggested waiting until night to pick up the corpse of the Japanese. After all, he saw that the enemy was not very strong. He even thought that the other party was most likely just some young Japanese recruits.
After all, the tactics of the Dragon Boat Festival are not just to put the Japanese at a distance of fifty meters before fighting, but also to assassinate every Japanese soldier.
So at this time, they thought that the Japs must have exhausted their forces. Bring up the new recruits, otherwise why would they be so weak?
Therefore, Wang Gang and Shen Mogan discussed and decided to send people to search for weapons and ammunition on the corpses in front of the position tonight, and persist until the arrival of the special commissioner.
···············
At the same time, just as the sky was getting dark and Dragon Boat Festival was about to let the troops rest and have something to eat, the scouts sent news that enemy troops were discovered to their southwest.
The exact number of enemy troops is unknown, but they are also making rice.
Duanwu's eyes lit up, they just hadn't eaten yet.
Duanwu said quickly: "Go and check quickly to see how many people there are and what do they eat?"
"Yes, Danzao!"
The scout took the order and rushed off to investigate.
He came back after a while and said that there was at least a large group of Japs who were killing pigs and sheep and preparing to cook the meat.
It was obvious that wherever there were pigs and sheep in these barren mountains, these little devils must have robbed the common people and prepared for a feast when it got dark.
But Duanwu felt that it might not be that simple. It is impossible for a Japanese army to have a rusty brain and go to the mountains for a picnic. There must be other enemies nearby. What's more, the little devil has just been killing pigs and sheep, and he hasn't even gotten into the pot yet.
Duanwu felt that he had plenty of time, so he sent out almost all the third battalion to check whether there were other Japanese soldiers near this little Japanese army.
As a result, after investigation within a five-kilometer radius, there was not even a single Japanese troop.
Then this is strange. What is a Japanese infantry brigade doing in the mountains with so much time to do?
Dragon Boat Festival ordered: "The third battalion is on alert and continues investigation. The first and fourth battalions are reserve forces and are ready to support the third battalion at any time. The first and second battalions go to take away the little devil. Remember not to smash the devil's pot. We still need to eat meat. The fifth battalion protects the baggage."
"yes!"
Several battalion commanders took the order and left. However, at this moment, Duanwu suddenly said: "Let's see if we can catch him alive. If he can't, forget it."
Dragon Boat Festival was really surprised as to what a Japanese infantry brigade was doing in the mountains, so he let Zhu Shengzhong and Sun Shiyu stay alive.
"Yes, Danzao!"
Sun Shiyu and Zhu Shengzhong responded, but whether the little devil can still be alive depends on their own luck.
As a result, two infantry battalions, totaling more than 2,000 people, secretly surrounded a Japanese infantry brigade.
All the Japs' sentries were killed without a sound, and the little Japs were so crazy that they didn't send out a few sentries at all. Others are just waiting to eat meat.
At this time, the pot has been boiled, and waves of tangy meat aroma are constantly wafting out of the pot.
But the meat is not cooked yet, because the pot has only just been boiled. If you want the meat to become tender, it will take more than a few hours.
So the little devils waited one by one, all three feet long.
However, at this moment, two groups of men suddenly appeared on the left and right sides of the Japs' camp. The other team didn't even say hello. They pointed their light machine guns at the Japs sitting around the fire and fired at them.
The little Japs were defenseless and were still waiting to eat meat. As a result, many Japs were shot through the bodies by machine gun bullets while they were still sitting.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The Japanese officer shouted a warning, but at this second, he was shot in the head and received a box lunch on the spot.
The soldiers who supervise the corps are like wolves and tigers, killing the Japanese like harvesters harvesting crops. Although the Japs in the center of the camp had a chance to get weapons and fight hard, they didn't even last two minutes before they were swallowed up by enemies coming from all directions.
They had never seen such a powerful force, with the number of machine guns being more than thirty times that of their Imperial Japanese Army. When they held a machine gun and tried to suppress the opponent's firepower, the opponent had more than thirty machine guns pointed at them and fired at them.
How to fight this? There is no way to fight, the only choice is to die, but it will reduce some pain!
