Almost at this moment, Yamamoto had the idea of retreating.
The Eighth Route Army's individual weapons are no worse than those of the special forces.
In addition, there are Maxim heavy machine guns, mortars, and 75mm artillery with large-caliber heavy firepower.
Although the marksmanship of the special agents far exceeded that of the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army had the advantage of the terrain.
If the Eighth Route Army breaks out, the special agent team will teach the Eighth Route Army how to behave.
But the Eighth Route Army had obviously received guidance from an expert. The battle has continued until now, and no one of the Eighth Route Army has broken out of the fortifications.
This battle can no longer be fought...
This is the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army. If you stay in Yangcun for too long, you may be in danger of being surrounded.
It's my fault that I, Yamamoto Kazuki, have taken this, and I will definitely regain my place in the future!
Yamamoto Kazuki glanced in the direction of Yangcun with a cold look. Although he was unwilling to do so, he might not be able to escape if he didn't run away.
Yamamoto Kazuki: "Oka-kun, send the flare and retreat!"
Korogoro: "Hi!"
Koro Goro took out the flare gun and a green flare from his backpack, loaded the flare into the flare gun, then pointed it at the sky and pulled the trigger.
Phew—a flare trailing a green tail flame rose into the night sky.
Seeing this, the Japanese who were fighting with the Eighth Route Army in front took out melon grenades, knocked them on their helmets, and threw them towards the entrance of the village.
Boom boom boom, boom boom——
After a rapid explosion, the Japanese fired short bursts of fire from the submachine gun in their hands, while using skillful tactical movements to alternately cover and retreat.
A row of mortar shells fired from the village fell on the Japs' retreat, killing two Japs on the spot.
The remaining Japs did not dare to stay any longer and ran away at extremely fast speeds, and soon disappeared on the path in front of the village.
A flare went up from the village, and there was no more Japanese in sight.
At the foot of a dirt slope 500 meters away from the village entrance, Yamamoto Kazuki looked at the remaining team members in front of him with a gloomy expression.
The two combat groups that went to attack the village entrance totaled 20 people, but only 12 people came back, and 8 people were killed in the attack.
Of the 30 people in the three combat groups who were preparing to go up the cliff, only 5 people escaped, and 3 of them even lost their jobs.
Kazuki Yamamoto yelled at the five team members who had escaped, "Why are you the only one and where are the rest?"
The leader of the fourth combat team, Nakajima Yifuton, made the first remarks.
"Report to the captain, the Eighth Route Army buried S mines halfway up the cliff. The third combat team stepped on the mines while performing rock climbing operations, and they were all blown down."
"The Eighth Route Army dropped a large number of M2 wooden handle grenades on the cliff, and the third combat group was completely wiped out!"
"In addition, the Eighth Route Army also set up four Maxim heavy machine gun fire points on the cliff!"
"They use all automatic weapons and snipers!"
"There's even 60mm mortar and 75mm field artillery support!"
Among the three team captains, only Yoshio Nakajima survived.
Yamamoto's face suddenly sank. The secret service team actually lost more than half...
Now that things have come to this, Yamamoto Kazuki can't say much.
"Retreat!" Yamamoto Kazuki said sharply.
The remaining team members bowed and headed north.
Yamamoto Kazuki glanced in the direction of Yang Cun with cold, cruel, and arrogant eyes.
This time I will let you be crazy for a while. I, Yamamoto Kazuki, will find this place back sooner or later!
Then he chased after the special agents with a submachine gun in hand without looking back, and disappeared into the night not long after.
…
At the same time, the new regiment headquarters.
The communications soldier said to Li Yunlong: "Report to the regiment commander, we have beaten away the Japanese!"
"Run away?" Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you sure you ran away?"
The communications soldier nodded and said, "I'm sure I ran away!"
Li Yunlong thought about it for a moment. The Japs were passing through in small groups, and there was a firefight in our Eighth Route Army base area.
The entire exchange of fire lasted less than 10 minutes. Although the Japanese suffered a heavy loss, they would definitely not fight back again.
Li Yunlong hoped that the Japanese would fight back and wait for reinforcements from other troops to arrive. The Japanese would definitely not be able to leave.
Li Yunlong: "Give me the order. The first and third battalions will clean up the battlefield quickly. We don't want the enemy to take prisoners or wounded soldiers. We will kill them all!"
"Order the second battalion commander to report the casualties and seizures as soon as possible!"
"Yes!" The communications soldier saluted with a military salute and walked outside.
…
Because the fighting happened in the middle of the night.
By the time the soldiers finished cleaning the battlefield, it was already broad daylight.
The seriously wounded have been sent to field hospitals.
In the inner room of the regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong admired the Japanese special forces combat uniforms stripped from the corpses.
It was also the first time for Li Yunlong to see military uniforms of this style.
Zhang Dabiao introduced: "Commander, look at the black mesh helmets, jacket combat uniforms, bulletproof vests, and all automatic firepower. The devils who fought with us last night must have unusual backgrounds."
Li Yunlong was wondering whether he should ask Brother Chen Feng to customize a batch of such equipment for himself?
After all, Brother Chen Feng’s arsenal can make guns, cannons, and military uniforms. It shouldn’t be difficult to make such equipment, right?
Wearing a combat uniform like this makes you look a bit like a special soldier.
Li Yunlong asked: "Da Biao, how did you feel when you fought with these Japs last night?"
Zhang Dabiao thought for a moment and then said:
"This group of Japs is very evil. They use automatic firepower and their marksmanship is frighteningly accurate."
"Their reactions are also very sharp. They can evade at the same time as the gun fires, and they can also shoot at the target while evading."
"Especially the Japs' grenades, they hit almost wherever they point, and they always hit the mark."
"Thankfully, brother Chen Feng provided us with the information. Otherwise, if these devils were to reach Daxia Bay, the head of the headquarters would be in danger."
"Report!"
Second Battalion Commander Zheng Yu's voice sounded outside the door.
Last night, before the 50 submachine gunners led by Zheng Yu participated in the battle, the Yamamoto special agent team was beaten away.
But the reserve team... can be used, but it cannot be left out.
Li Yunlong: "Come in!"
Second Battalion Commander Zheng Yu walked in with a folder, gave a military salute and said: "Report to the regimental commander, the statistics of casualties and seizures are out."
Li Yunlong: "Read it!"
Zheng Yu opened the folder and read.
"Five of our people died, 7 were seriously injured, and 6 were slightly injured."
"Killed 43 Japanese soldiers!"
"28 intact submachine guns were seized!"
"Four light machine guns!"
"35 20-shot shell guns!"
"Two sniper rifles!"
"4 grenades!"
"Some bullets and grenades!"
"Currently, the seriously injured have been sent to the field hospital!"
Li Yunlong nodded, quite satisfied with the result.
Although he defeated the Japanese special forces this time, Li Yunlong was more urgent and wanted to form his own special forces.
With intelligence support, sufficient preparations, strong firepower, and with more fighting and less work, the casualty ratio with the Japanese special forces was actually close to 1:3.
It is enough to show that the combat effectiveness of this special force of the Japanese army is strong. With the existing firepower and combat effectiveness of the new regiment, there is no way to keep them all.
