Chapter 124 Division and Surrounding
The third Japanese army battalion responsible for flanking, who had never imagined that they would encounter such a difficult and cunning attacker before entering the mountain. Just after the Japanese squadron captain gave up the pursuit order, the attackers seemed to have really escaped.
In the eyes of the Japanese captain, those cunning attackers should be restraining their troops and preventing them from reaching the predetermined attack position on time. They just felt that they had exposed the attacker's conspiracy and were ready to march to the predetermined attack position with all their strength.
But no one expected that the Japanese brigade captain who had just asked the troops to rest and have lunch heard the explosion from the camp. He was shocked and did not bother to continue holding a combat meeting. Under the cover of the guards, he quickly looked for a fire escape point.
When the infantry captain discovered that the attacker was on the mountain in front of the camp, and when the number of artillery was not large, he immediately walked out of the hidden point and issued an order to send infantry squadrons to pursue it, but the shelling seemed to have not stopped.
After one or two minutes, four shells fell into the valley where the infantry brigade was located. Even if the shells fell out and no Japanese killed them, the scattered Japanese still frightened.
The reason is that the mortar's bullet points are not consistent every time, and the shellers seem to be adjusting the shooting position every time. In this case, no one can guarantee that the next round of shells will not hit their hidden position.
Even if a mortar explodes around you, it will not feel good. If you are not careful, you may be injured or even killed. For the Japanese who entered the mountains to encircle and suppress, they also cherish their lives, so they naturally do not want to die in vain.
Seeing the third squadron in charge of chasing, who had already rushed to the foot of the mountain where the artillery position was located, the infantry captain who was watching said angrily: "Baga! These damn sneak attackers are really arrogant! When they saw the pursuers, they didn't run away quickly!"
At this moment, a squadron leader whispered: "Captain, is this a trap?"
As soon as the squadron leader finished speaking, the Japanese who had started climbing the mountain suddenly saw violent gunfire sounds in the jungle ahead. Countless bullets hit the face, and the Japanese who rushed in the front couldn't even lie down.
"Enemy attack! Leave down! Get ready to fight back!"
Xu Sandao, who was in charge of blocking, saw the Japanese lying down quickly and said directly: "Groutine team, greet the grenade!"
The soldiers hiding in the bushes took out their grenades and threw them to the bottom of the mountain with force. As the grenades were detonated one after another, the Japanese chasing them did not dare to look up at all, so they could only lie on the ground to avoid the grenades.
The Japanese brigade captain who was being bombarded in the valley ahead saw the pursuing third brigade attacked at the foot of the mountain and immediately said: "Baga! These damn guys have emerged from there! The second squadron, attack!"
"Hi!"
Another army of hundreds of people quickly rushed out of the hidden valley to prepare to rescue the third squadron that was ambushed. When the second squadron attacked, Xu Sandao had waved: "Brothers, alternate cover and withdraw!"
At the same time, Hu Biao and others on the mountain also began to dismantle the mortars. The guard platoon soldiers who cooperated with the combat dismantled the mortars into parts in just a few seconds. One person carried a part on his back, and the group ran towards another mountain.
The Japanese squadrons waiting for support arrived at the foot of the mountain. Xu Sandao and others who were ambushing the Japanese squadron had already appeared on the hillside. Looking at the ambushers who were trying to escape, the surviving Japanese devils were naturally unwilling to let them go.
What made the Japanese angry the most was the ambushers who actually ran for a while and someone stopped to shoot at them. Correspondingly, the Japanese chasing Japanese did not politely raise their guns to fight back. Both sides also began to shoot at each other in the jungle.
When the Japanese who were pursuing came to another mountain without realizing it, the ambush team that was fighting and retreating quickly ran away without a trace. The Japanese who had been worried about having a trap had found that they had not encountered a life-seeking thunder.
One of the squadron leaders looked at the lieutenant beside him and asked, "Do you want to continue chasing? Judging from the appearance of these ambushers, they should not have time to set up traps. If they are asked to run away, it will be difficult to pursue them later."
"What should I do with the captain?"
"Send someone back to report. I saw someone who was injured before, so I shouldn't run fast. Now we have more than 200 people, and there are only 34 people on the other side. If we don't eliminate these troublemakers, it will be difficult for us to go to the combat site with peace of mind."
"Yu Xi! Then continue chasing! Divide into two routes, encircling left and right, how about it?"
After analysis and discussion between the two squadron leaders, more than 200 Japanese soldiers were divided into two groups to pursue the formation and continued to pursue along the route of Xu Sandao and others running away. At this time, Xu Sandao and another main force who had been waiting for a long time.
Looking at the panting soldiers behind him, Xu Sandao quickly said: "Planer Commander Chen, take your people with you and lurk on one side of the ridge. The injured brother, hurry up and bandage them, and the seriously injured will be sent back to the camp immediately."
"Party Leader Xu, what should I do if the battle here?"
"Don't worry! The battle has just begun! Next, Platoon Commander Liu will take over the battle. All you have to do is stay in the lurking point and wait for the order. If the Japanese troops come here later, you must remember that you can't act without permission, do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"The battalion commander had an explanation before, asking us to lure the Japanese to come here first. The more Japanese to attract, the less pressure there will be on the camp. When the Japanese chase too deeply, they will probably not be able to withdraw at that time.
What we have to do is to wait until it is almost dark, concentrate our superior forces to encircle and annihilate the scattered Japanese. Not to mention annihilation, even if we can eliminate half of the Japanese, we will make a lot of money this time."
"Yes, I remember it! Don't worry, I will definitely not act without orders!"
After explaining the mission, Xu Sandao looked at the platoon leader Liu who was replacing the task of luring the enemy and said directly: "Plane Commander Liu, it's our turn! There are more than 200 Japanese soldiers following us now, so we will fight and retreat!"
"Yes! Platoon Commander Xu, just give orders! Our third platoon will definitely obey the command!"
Although they are all platoon leaders, the platoon leaders of the avenge battalion know that Xu Sandao is the battalion commander's direct confidant and the platoon leader of the guard platoon. With the achievements made in these few times, I believe that it will not take long before Xu Sandao's rank will be promoted again.
Xu Sandao was not very interested in promotion. After all, although they were in charge of the National Army camp, they did not obey the command of the National Army generals. There was only one commander, that is Hu Biao, who was temporarily the battalion commander.
As a soldier, he carried a gun and ate food and paid, it seemed that it had nothing to do with them. The problem was, what's the use of them even if they had money in their pockets? Hu Biao had already included all the food, clothing, and use!
When Xu Sandao led the new combat platoon and ambushed the Japanese chasing again on one ridge, the Japanese who were in charge of encircling the Japanese on the other side came to reinforce after hearing the gunshots, and then saw the scene of the Japanese jumping over the wall.
"Baga! Cowards, cowards! If you are a soldier, stop and fight to the death with us!"
The Japanese's rage and scolding did not affect the retreating Xu Sandao and others. They didn't know that the Japanese who had already changed a group of people could only continue chasing. In the Japanese's eyes, they were not afraid of chasing.
Whether it is physical strength or combat skills, they all feel that they have the advantage. If they continue to pursue, these ambushers will never run and shoot all the bullets in their guns. When they cross a mountain again, Hu Biao appears.
Looking at the reassembled Japanese devils, Hu Biao said with a smirk: "Brothers, we are ready to work!"
Hu Biao, who rebuilt a mortar on the other side, fired fire at the place where the Japanese gathered. Looking at the shells falling from the sky, the Japanese captain also roared: "Baga! What about these damn artillery soldiers! Where is the second squadron?"
I thought these artillery soldiers should be being chased by the second squadron at this moment. Unexpectedly, the second squadron and the third squadron were chasing them, and these elusive artillery soldiers appeared in front of them again.
Faced with this situation, the Japanese brigade captain had to send troops again to try to eliminate this annoying mobile artillery squadron. Not long after, the Japanese squadron in charge of the clearance was ambushed again and suffered heavy losses.
The one responsible for luring the battle this time was Qin Tianyou, another general under Hu Biao, and a guard squad cooperated with a combat platoon. Such a blocking team still made the Japanese who tried to capture Hu Biao's artillery squad and defeated.
When several squadrons around him were sent out, looking at the slightly empty surroundings, the Japanese brigade commander suddenly woke up and said, "Baga! No, we were fooled! The Chinese army intended to divide our troops, because they wanted to divide and surround us!"
"Your Captain, the Chinese army should not have this strength, right? In the defensive battle, our squadron could deal with a main battalion of the Chinese army. The number of these harassing troops should not be large!"
Many Japanese officers found it unlikely to worry about the Japanese brigade captain. For the brave and war-friendly Japanese army, the Japanese army could almost win a complete victory regardless of offensive or defensive warfare, whether it was attacking or defensive warfare or with the same force.
The avenging camp this time is said to have only one main battalion's troops. Not to mention that it needs to face the attack of Miura Battalion at this moment, even if all the troops are pulled out, it is impossible to defeat the third battalion head-on!
But for Hu Biao, who had successfully entered the mountains to encircle and suppress the Japanese brigade and divided it into three parts. Seeing that there seemed to be only about two hundred Japanese devils left by the Japanese brigade captain, he decided to concentrate his firepower to encircle and annihilate a group of Japanese troops leading into the mountains.
As for another type of Japanese army pursuing the mountain, Hu Biao, who had already fired all the cannonballs, led the guard platoon soldiers around him to set up thunders at the exit. Even if the Japanese heard the gunshots, they could not come quickly to support them.
After tying his pockets, looking at the first Japanese devils team lured into the mountains, Hu Biao quickly said: "Three groups of people are encircled, and we will try to kill these Japanese devils in the shortest time! Then turn around and destroy the other Japanese devils!"
"Yes, battalion commander!"
"Strike!"
Hu Biao's four combat platoons that had been drawn by the guard platoon, and Hu Biao also had more than 150 troops. In dealing with the Japanese devils about a squadron, Hu Biao asked himself that he had a great chance of winning. If he didn't fight at this time, when would he wait?
