"Aoki Brigade, immediately move to the southeast and block the invading squad of the Southeast Task Force!"
"Itakura Brigade, immediately dispatch to meet the invading team head-on!"
...
Major General Kazuo Sakai, commander of the Little Japanese Independent Brigade, believes that the most dangerous place is the safest.
He put his guards in the camp outside, and once he was attacked, he planned to flee in all directions to attract attention, while he continued to command his brigade in a cave inside a waterfall to fight back!
If Song Tiecheng and the others did not have radio wave detectors, his plan would have been very successful.
...
"Captain, we found traces of human activity around the waterfall. We suspect there is a cave near the waterfall!" A member of the seventh team searching the valley found several cigarette butts and traces of someone stepping on the grass.
"Be alert! Everyone, be careful. We may have found the Japs." The captain who led the seventh team perked up, waved his hand to summon the people, and then whispered.
The machine gunners and snipers began to look around for control points, while the remaining twenty or so people began to search and advance in a combat formation of three people as a staggered cover.
Each one held the assault rifle tightly, searching for large and small rocks in the valley to cover their advance!
...
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, we have been surrounded!" The little Japanese sentry hiding in the dark discovered the seventh group and ran towards the cave in a panic to report.
There were only a dozen guards and communications soldiers left. They originally thought that they could hide easily due to the small number of people, but they didn't expect that their target would be exposed so soon.
Kazuo Sakai stiffened, "Nagatomo-kun, are you sure we have exposed our target?" Kazuo Sakai said with a trembling voice.
Although the remaining little devils have long had the desire to die, who is willing to die if they can live?
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the enemy has formed a battle formation and is heading towards our cave. I am convinced that we have been exposed." The kid who reported the report replied firmly.
They are all old men in Kazuo Sakai's personal guard. They have experienced many battles, so they naturally have this look.
Kazuo Sakai lowered his head bitterly, looked at the map, and estimated the time for reinforcements to arrive.
"Get ready to fight! We have to hold on for at least 30 minutes before we can wait for reinforcements. Come on, everyone!" After finishing speaking, Sakai Kazuo pulled out the tortoise box and checked the bullets, then loaded it and put it back into his waist. He picked up the gun next to him. A crooked machine gun.
】
"Hey Yi!" More than a dozen little devils in the cave lowered their heads in response. Surrender These little devils will not surrender. They also hoped to hold on to the little Japanese reinforcements from another camp a few miles away in the mountains.
Now that they are in the cave, they only need to defend one side of the cave entrance. These dozen little devils have 4 crooked machine guns, and the firepower is quite fierce. In addition, the entrance of the cave is easy to defend and difficult to attack. They can hold on for half an hour. They are very confident.
This was one of the reasons why Kazuo Sakai didn't flee with the escort immediately!
...
The seventh group, which supported each other and moved forward relying on the rocks in the valley, gradually approached the waterfall with a stream of 70 to 80 centimeters high. However, there was only a pool left in front of the waterfall, and there was no cover in the middle.
The captain frowned and leaned his body behind the stone to observe the waterfall carefully. The raging stream fell from the cliff more than 20 meters above, which looked very spectacular. The massive stream water had long washed away the traces of human activities. No clues can be seen.
If it weren't for the butts of the Japs' cigarettes and the traces of being stepped on across the waterfall, the captain would never have thought that there was a hiding place for the Japs near the waterfall. After all, the living environment behind the water would not be very good, and it would be unsafe if it was full of moisture. Suitable for people to survive for a long time.
The captain waved his hand to everyone not to act rashly. After observing for a while, he raised his gun and pointed it at the waterfall and swept it across with a shuttle!
As soon as the gunfire rang out, the little devil immediately launched a counterattack. Four crooked machine guns fired at the same time, blocking the small water pool and the open space in front of the water pool with machine gun fire!
If everyone just rushed over regardless, at least several people would have died by now!
The little devil's crossfire was planned in advance and almost sealed the gap into the cave.
"Correspondent, call the team leader immediately. We have found a new hidden cave for the Japs. There are at least 4 crooked machine guns. We suspect that we have caught a nest of big fish. At the same time, call the radio wave reconnaissance team to see if it can still be detected now. The little devil’s radio wave!”
After the captain of the seventh team confirmed the existence of the little devil, he was not anxious at all.
The little devil's counterattack just now revealed a lot of firepower, a bit like grabbing the tail of a big fish.
If the radio wave team confirms that the radio wave they are looking for has disappeared, then it is almost certain that this is a headquarters of the Japs.
"Report to the captain. The captain said he received it. Two combat groups are gathering towards us and will jointly attack the cave. The radio wave reconnaissance team reported that the radio wave they were chasing has indeed disappeared. It is suspected that it is because we found the headquarters of the Japs. They’ve shut the station down.”
The correspondent immediately reported the information received to the captain of the seventh team. The captain became calmer, observed the surrounding terrain, and directed the team members to form an encirclement based on the rocks to surround the waterfall.
At the same time, I looked at the situation above the waterfall. It was a flat cliff of more than 100 meters, and my heart moved.
"Correspondent, report to the captain and ask him to send a team of people to separate the water on the cliff above the valley, destroy the waterfall, and expose the little devil's cave entrance so that we can attack!"
Although the water flow of this naturally formed waterfall is very large, after it is laid out for more than 100 meters, the height of the water flow is no more than a few centimeters above the feet. If you move some rocks to block the middle, the waterfall will only fall on two sides. The middle of the flowing water is completely exposed.
Song Tiecheng, who was not far away, quickly understood the intention of the seventh group. He asked a group of people to intercept the water flowing from both sides on the cliff, and soon opened a natural curtain. Sure enough, the captain saw the cave behind the waterfall. And now there are four black and crooked machine gun muzzles!
"Hit the labor force with rocket launchers!" the captain yelled, pointing at the hole.
The kid with his chicken feet exposed was no longer worth fearing. The captain looked at the kid's attack with rocks at the entrance of the cave, and he used his team's most powerful weapon without hesitation.
The bazooka rocket launcher quickly aimed at the hole and fired a shot!
After a loud explosion, the muzzle of the little devil's crooked machine gun disappeared!
But I don’t know if the Japs retreated or were killed by rockets.
The captain did not dare to gamble, "Let the labor and management continue to bomb!" Now the Allied forces began to pour into Wanwan Island in large numbers. Gao Jianwu was not short of supplies. Although the captain did not bring many rockets this time, he only brought a small group. A base of 30 rounds, but now he is not stingy at all.
"Xiao Qin, go out and conduct reconnaissance to see how the kid is doing!" After three consecutive rockets hit the entrance of the cave, the captain saw that the kid had no movement, and then issued the first order to attack.
"Keep firing the rocket launcher!"
Xiao Qin's three-person combat team next to him held their guns, lowered their heads, and crouched forward in a snake-like maneuver. When they advanced more than fifty meters and approached the edge of the small water pool, they crawled on the ground one by one. As expected, they stood up crookedly. The machine gun stretched out from the hole and fired!
Bullets whizzed past their heads. The little devil inside not only had a machine gun, but also had a way to observe the situation outside!
"Machine gun and rocket launcher fire suppression, Xiao Qin retreat!" The captain verified his thoughts and immediately called for his people to come back.
When Song Tiecheng brought people over, the captain said to Song Tiecheng, "Captain, I suggest using incendiary bombs and smoke bombs to block the entrance and line of sight of the little devil's cave, and then attack a few people in and block the entrance of the little devil's cave against the mountain wall, and then Then let the rocket launcher approach the hole and launch an attack!"
Only the team directly under Song Tiecheng carried special types of rockets. The other teams all carried rockets for attack purposes. To put it bluntly, they were bombs like grenades.
Song Tiecheng observed the current terrain and found that it was indeed not conducive to a direct attack.
In the open area in front, if the Japs' machine gunners were not dead, they would probably suffer a lot of casualties even if they were crawling forward. Only by suppressing the Japs' firepower and the sight of external observation could they make progress with less casualties.
Therefore, the tactics of the captain of the seventh group are impeccable.
Two smoke bombs and one incendiary bomb were fired to block the entrance of the cave occupied by the Little Japs. Now no one could interfere with Xiao Qin's attack. They waded through the small pool in one breath and successfully entered the Little Japs. In the blind area of the hole!
After forming a cross-fire attack on the entrance of the Little Devil's Cave, Kazuo Sakai in the cave sadly found that although he had withstood for nearly half an hour, the shadow of reinforcements still did not appear!
After the traces of the activities of the two little Japanese brigade were discovered by the sentries deployed by Song Tiecheng, Song Tiecheng decisively called for air support!
Four "Helldiver" dive bombers roared over carrying eight rockets. They faced the Aoki Battalion and Itakura Battalion of the little devils. They first attacked the dense formation with low-altitude and precise rockets, and then used two onboard heavy machine guns to attack them. The little devil performed a surgical aerial strike!
The Japs, who completely lacked anti-aircraft weapons, finally realized the despair Gao Jianwu and others felt when facing the Japs Air Force.
The two brigades faced the "Hell Diver", a monster in the sky, and were quickly defeated. However, several combat groups of Song Tiecheng's assault brigade, with the cooperation of the air, broke up the two little Japanese brigades. The team fought back.
While Kazuo Sakai was looking forward to seeing what happened, the two brigades of the little devils had already collapsed and began to move towards destruction step by step!
Kazuo Sakai did not go to hell to meet them much later than them. During the crackdown on the Japs, Gao Jianwu issued an order specifically for this situation. If he felt there was any threat, the Japs found would be annihilated. Although more prisoners were captured alive, Gao Jianwu believed that the lives of the soldiers were more important!
