Before the gunfire sounded on the main battlefield, the flanking battlefield started fighting first. The sudden explosion seemed to have expanded the scale of the encirclement and suppression war a lot. The Miura brigade, who was preparing to attack, was also very surprised.
But for Hu Biao and others who were escaping into the mountains and forests at this moment, they would naturally not easily guess the sinister intentions of these Japanese devils. In the big mountains, Hu Biao had time to waste time with these Japanese devils.
The enemy is in the light, Hu Biao and others are in the dark. In addition, with the Japanese who are the Japanese who are responsible for assisting, this assist journey is destined to be full of disasters. Perhaps the Japanese never dreamed that there would be heavy casualties when they made assists.
The Japanese squadron, who had entered the mountains and forests as search guides, first tasted the thunder set up by Hu Biao. Looking at the bombing and the injured subordinates, the Japanese squadron leader who led the team naturally had extremely unhappy expressions.
He immediately ordered: "Expand the search scope. These damn guys shouldn't have run too far. Go and report to the captain. After entering the mountain, our troops encountered a small army of Chinese soldiers, and are currently chasing and searching."
"Hi!"
A small team leader who received the order immediately ran out of the valley and went to the brigade leader to report the enemy situation. After hearing this news, the infantry captain responsible for assisting also said unexpectedly: "What about Na? There are also Chinese soldiers in this mountainous and forest area?"
"Yes! Because we appeared very suddenly, the Chinese soldiers hidden in the valley should have left in a hurry. There was even a lot of food that had not been eaten in the temporary camp where they gave up."
"Yu Xi! It seems that the Chinese defeated soldiers who were cleared this time are planning to attack the Miura brigade on the periphery! I passed my order and the other squadrons quickly entered the mountainous areas and advanced forward according to the expected route to clear out the Chinese defeated soldiers we met along the way."
"Hi!"
With the command of the captain, the other squadrons that followed quickly advanced into the mountains. At this moment, Hu Biao and his party, who had left the temporary camp, were staying on a ridge, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Japanese search troops.
Under Hu Biao's order, everyone put on homemade simple fishing net camouflage clothes, even if they even painted their faces with oil paint for opera. The guard platoon soldiers participating in this jungle battle were all wearing Hu Biao's customized combat equipment.
Squatting under a big tree, Hu Biao pointed to the valley in front of him and said, "When the Japanese come over, they should choose to walk on the valley. If they follow the place we have walked, it will trigger the thunder we buried before.
Remember, if the thunder is triggered, don’t rush to take action. All the Japanese who are chasing will enter the ravine and follow my orders before firing. The machine gun team takes the lead, and then the grenade team follows up, and the infantry team is responsible for finishing off.
There are many Japanese soldiers who have entered the mountains to encircle and suppress them. We don’t need to fight with Japanese soldiers. We will lead Japanese soldiers to a farther mountain first, and then turn around and take over the Japanese’s retreat. At that time, it will not be so easy to get out of the mountains."
According to the tactics of the ox formulated by Hu Biao, the Japanese who were pursuing them first were led to the denser jungle behind them. After the supply line was lengthened, the Japanese's military line would also be lengthened, and it would not be so easy to contact the outside of the mountain in time.
As long as we find the right opportunity, we block these Japanese devils who entered the mountain, so that they cannot escape from the mountain smoothly. After dark, Hu Biao will also tell these Japanese devils who entered the mountain what it means to be a forest-moe.
As for the radio station that Zhao Xian brought, he had already been on standby in the distance of the mountains. At the same time, he had sent troops to inform Xu Mingzhi of the Japanese to try to take the way out. In that case, Xu Mingzhi could prepare in advance.
After receiving the telegram sent by Hu Biao in time, Xu Mingzhi said unexpectedly: "It seems that the Japanese really want to wipe us out in one go! Not only did they send thousands of Japanese to attack head-on, they actually wanted to completely block our retreat."
"Battery Deputy, the battalion commander has not many people. Should I send troops to support me?"
"Send a telegram to ask the battalion commander what he meant! But I think if the battalion commander really needs support, he would have said it in the telegram a long time ago. Even if he doesn't mention it, he doesn't need support. When fighting in the mountains, the battalion commander is afraid that he will be even more like a fish in water!"
From the day Hu Biao chose to let the Avenge Camp enter Anhua Mountain, Xu Mingzhi saw that Hu Biao was very familiar with the skills of jungle combat. At present, the fortifications around the camp were all planned and determined by Hu Biao earlier.
The excavation and arrangement of these fortifications are very beneficial to the defense side. On the contrary, the party responsible for the offense wants to take the mountain position in the defense of the avenge camp, it is probably a heavy price to pay.
Xu Mingzhi, who was staying on the front line of positions and occupying the commanding heights, could clearly see through the telescope that the Japanese who were gradually entering the mountains to attack formations were waiting for something. For this reason, Xu Mingzhi quickly thought that the Japanese wanted to fight together in the infantry and artillery.
After guessing this, Xu Mingzhi immediately said: "Go and inform the company commander Sun of the artillery company that once the Japanese start shelling, he will immediately calculate the location of the Japanese artillery position. Once the gun company counterattacks, it must kill the Japanese artillery."
"yes!"
"By the way! In the telegram sent by the battalion commander, the Japanese had already informed that there was an artillery squadron to cooperate with infantry operations. This artillery squadron was equipped with infantry artillery and mortars, so you must listen carefully. The Japanese were bombarded later.
I am worried that the Japanese will divide the artillery positions into two, so when the artillery company counterattacks, they must report the instructions. Anyway, we have the advantage of terrain. We can only wait until all the Japanese artillery positions are exposed before starting to launch artillery counterattacks.”
"yes!"
The communication soldier who received the order quickly conveyed the order to the temporary artillery company commander Sun Yuanqi. After hearing the order, Sun Yuanqi also quickly said: "I understand! As long as the Japanese dare to fire artillery, I will find their artillery positions as soon as possible."
As the only lieutenant who was rescued from the avenge battalion, Sun Yuanqi was also an artillery lieutenant of the main division of the National Army before he was captured. Unfortunately, their artillery battalion was useless when fighting against the Japanese.
This time, he had a rare opportunity to command an artillery company alone. Even this artillery company had eight 92 infantry cannons and ten 90 caliber mortars. Seeing these artillery, Sun Yuanqi also liked them from the bottom of his heart.
Earlier, before fighting with the Japanese artillery battalion, the artillery he was in, had just been fired for several rounds, and was covered with artillery bombardment from the Japanese heavy artillery troops. Sun Yuanqi also felt that he was very lucky to survive until now.
Looking at the two main positions defended by the Avengers, and learning that the artillery squadron had already built the artillery position, he immediately ordered: "Order the third and fifth squadrons to launch a feint attack on the defensive positions of the Chinese defeated soldiers and test the enemy's firepower point."
"Hi!"
The two squadron commanders who received the order immediately led their combat troops to launch an offensive formation and rushed towards the mountain position where the Avengers Battalion and the Second Company were stationed. Seeing this scene, the two company commanders immediately ordered the preparation for battle.
As a defeated Japanese army, Xu Mingzhi, who had been at the forefront, watched the Japanese send two squadrons to attack and quickly said: "I inform the two company commanders that this should be the Japanese's feint attack and wanted to test out our machine gun firepower.
When the counterattack is coming, the heavy machine gun is not allowed to fire, only half of the light machine guns are allowed to be activated. Once the Japanese retreat, order the machine gunners to immediately move their positions. Otherwise, the Japanese shells will hit them in a while."
"Yes, battalion deputy!"
Xu Mingzhi, who had discussed the Japanese offensive tactics with Hu Biao earlier, also only Hu Biao talked about the "three-pronged" offensive tactics that the Japanese army was best at. He first reconnaissance, then artillery fire strikes, and finally launched a fierce attack while the chaos was in the chaos.
As long as you respond calmly, you can catch the Japanese off guard. This time, a large number of weapons and ammunition were seized from the military, including a large number of light and heavy machine guns. The barrel of the machine gun is enough, and the bullets can be used more openly. Xu Mingzhi also wanted to severely damage the Japanese.
In fact, for the officers and soldiers of the Avengers who entered the defensive position at this moment, many of them wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge. At the same time, they proved to others or themselves that they did not surrender because they were afraid of death, but because they had to surrender.
At present, there are sufficient weapons and ammunition, and the Japanese have no heavy artillery and planes to assist in the war. They also have the advantage of terrain and fortifications. Many officers and soldiers of the avenge camp think that if they can't beat the Japanese, it only means that they are too incompetent.
Looking at the Japanese who were slowly advancing at the foot of the mountain and shooting from time to time, the squad leaders lying in the trenches also said at the right time: "Everyone is ready, don't show your head at will. The Japanese's shooting skills are not bad, don't touch that bad head.
After the order is over, I will definitely aim at the shooting. We have trench cover, and the Japanese will not hit us easily. If one shot is not accurate, the second shot will continue to aim at the shooting. The company commander said, today the bullet is open, and it will be enough!"
"yes!"
"I also told you good news to my brothers. The explosion from the other side of the mountain was the brothers of the battalion commander and the guard platoon to deal with the Japanese and attract the Japanese's attention for us. We are all rescued by the battalion commander, so don't embarrass the battalion commander."
"yes!"
Since when, Hu Biao, the battalion commander, has become the spiritual pillar of many soldiers. Looking at the warrior who was afraid before, suddenly he became serious in his expression, and even the platoon leaders felt very magical.
I am even more convinced that Xu Mingzhi asked them to inform them of this news before, which seemed to be really boosting morale. The morale of the troops increased, and when fighting with the Japanese later, the chance of winning was higher.
When the Japanese climbed within the range of the machine gun, several machine gunners immediately took the initiative and pulled the bolt to push the bullets into the load. The muzzle was aimed at the Japanese in sight, and quietly waited for the firing order to be issued.
On the other hand, the Japanese who were responsible for the feint attack felt surprised when they saw that the troops defending on the mountain did not fire and fought back. The more stable the defensive troops were, the more dangerous they were to act as the offensive side.
Seeing this situation, Major Miura, who was staying at the foot of the mountain, frowned and said, "Are these Chinese soldiers so silenced?"
For some reason, seeing the two hills quiet, Major Miura suddenly felt that this siege and attack attack was not as easy as expected. If the casualties paid were too high, it would be more than worth the loss!
