Everyone can tell you that being a soldier protects your family and country. Seeing the bloody battlefield, not everyone can bear this situation. Although Zhang Yunfei has arranged these dozen recruits who have never even fired a gun in the last position.

They are on the periphery, but there is no guarantee how many of them will be left after this battle. There is no such thing as safety on the battlefield.

Overcoming fear is the first hurdle before them. In the midst of the bombardment, few people can be truly unafraid. If their psychological quality is not strong enough, they are likely to be among the first batch to be eliminated.

Perhaps the hard training in later generations can hone the mental will of soldiers and improve their battlefield survivability, but this era does not have such conditions. The resources consumed by training a soldier in that way can feed a dozen people or even more in this era.

Dozens of people, to be honest, the Eighth Route Army cannot afford such consumption. This is the tragedy of the times. It can only push poorly trained soldiers onto the battlefield and eliminate them.

This approach may seem ruthless, but under severe circumstances and limited conditions it is the most effective approach.

This search of Zhang Youde's home gave them enough guns and ammunition. This group of recruits at least had sufficient ammunition and weapons. They were much luckier than most of the recruits in this era who could only carry spears or bare hands on the battlefield.

A distance of thirty meters is the best distance for novices to attack. Whether throwing grenades or shooting, they can at least hit the target accurately.

This distance is the optimal combat distance for recruits who have only learned how to fire and throw grenades, at least to close the gap with the enemy.

For many people, waiting is a kind of suffering, but for Zhang Yunfei, it is exciting, just like waiting for the lottery draw.

After surviving the cold morning and the warm noon, in the afternoon, a convoy led by motorcycles drove into Zhang Yunfei's telescope. Looking at the convoy of five trucks in the telescope, Zhang Yunfei shuddered slightly. According to recent observations,

, there are more convoys of three or four vehicles, and one more vehicle is equivalent to four or five more Japanese, which increases the difficulty of the attack.

The Japanese convoy was getting closer and closer. He asked the people hiding on both sides of the road to prepare for battle. Zhang Yunfei put several mine fuses modified with grenades into his own hands.

After deploying everything, he picked up the telescope and observed again, estimating the Japs' traveling speed. However, as the Japs' convoy approached, Zhang Yunfei felt more and more something was wrong. He had observed that there were not so many people in the convoy several times before.

A Type 94 truck and the last Type 97 truck seemed to be filled with people.

Zhang Yunfei's palms began to sweat. He had won the lottery. This was transporting cargo and troops together. It didn't seem right. If it was a troop transport, it would be a continuous convoy. This was escorting something important. It seemed

I really hit the jackpot.

The Japanese team consists of one three-wheeled motorcycle, four Type 94 vehicles, and one Type 97 truck. The Type 94 and Type 97 trucks are similar in style. The only difference is that the Type 94 has six wheels and the Type 97 truck has six wheels.

The Seventh Form has four wheels, and one set of rear wheels is missing.

Zhang Yunfei felt that he was quite weak. Although it was a surprise that the Japanese escorted valuables, and they should gain a huge harvest this time, the increase in the number of Japanese escorts would also increase their losses in this battle, and they might not be able to defeat the opponent.

What a miserable life, it happens every time. As long as the battle you participate in requires you to risk your life, you will never be able to win it safely.

Now the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. They were too close to the road. The enemy's convoy was likely to be discovered when it got close. If they didn't fight, they would be more likely to lose the initiative.

The enemy's situation is much more severe than expected. Looking at the situation, the Japs' strength is about forty or fifty, which is almost a squad. Even a reinforced company may not be able to win. Now he still has half of the recruits and district squads in his hands. Zhang Yunfei

I feel like this battle is hanging in the balance.

The thoughts of whether to hit or not were swirling in Zhang Yunfei's mind, but there was no turning back when he fired the bow. He only hesitated for a moment, and then his eyes became firm.

He picked up the fuse of the grenade-modified pulley and waited for the Japanese convoy to approach. The stretch in his hand felt heavier and heavier, and the veins in his hand bulged.

The roar of the truck came, and it felt like the ground was shaking slightly, and everyone's heartbeats were already in their throats.

Perhaps it was because there had never been any attacks on this road, and the Japanese convoy was moving relatively fast, without being prepared for possible unexpected situations.

The leading motorcycle had entered their predetermined ambush point and was already aligned with their ambush position. Zhang Yunfei pulled the fuse when the Japanese's first troop transport truck was several meters away from the buried grenade-converted mine.

The cluster grenade exploded under the truck just as the truck ran over it. The powerful impact overturned the car. This caused heavy casualties to the Japanese soldiers in the car. Even if they were not injured, at least they were beaten to pieces at this moment.

In a state of confusion, it is impossible to react for a while.

Taking advantage of his illness to kill him, Zhang Yunfei quickly pulled the cord of the grenade, waited for three seconds and threw it out. At this time, Tiedan's shot hit the Japanese machine gunner in the tricycle beside the motorcycle in the chest.

The crooked handle in his hand fell out of the car.

The motorcycle driver was also concentrated by a volley of gunfire from the scouts. The motorcycle crooked off the road, hit a big tree, and rolled over to the ground, spinning in circles.

At this time, with the sound of explosions, everyone began to throw grenades at the Japanese escort vehicle. The explosion of grenades continued for a while. The Japanese soldiers just climbed out of the overturned truck, and they were greeted by a rain of grenades.

.

They must kill the Japs in this car as quickly as possible without giving him any chance to counterattack, because there is another car behind them.

The two machine guns deployed on both sides of the road opened fire at the last escort truck without hesitation of bullets. In an instant, the truck was turned into a hornet's nest, and the Japanese who jumped out of the truck were killed and injured.

Zhang Yunfei caught a glimpse of the Japs who jumped out of the last truck. They were no ordinary Japs at all. He was an officer holding a command knife.

The Japs suffered such a violent blow and most of them were killed or injured, but they responded quickly and the rest had already begun to organize a counterattack. Naturally, Zhang Yunfei would not give them such a chance. He fired all five bullets in the magazine of his rifle and immediately launched a charge.

Thanks to Zhang Youde's friendly sponsorship, now the numerous shell guns in their hands have bullets, which is a great advantage in close combat.

"The recruits and the district team are not allowed to get too far forward and shoot with guns." Although it has been clearly explained in advance, everyone is to follow the herd. He is afraid that the new recruits will rush out to fight with the Japanese because of their enthusiasm, which is like delivering food.

No different.

After firing all the bullets from the rifle in his hand, Zhang Yunfei picked up the rifle with the bayonet and rushed out with the veterans. After a round of bullets, there were still seven or eight Japanese soldiers in a truckload of more than thirty who were fighting back.

This made Zhang Yunfei very ashamed. They fired landmines, grenades, and shell guns. After a blast of more than thirty Japanese soldiers, there were only seven or eight remaining.

I maximized my firepower, but the result was unsatisfactory. Even if I am a veteran, my marksmanship is just the same. If my firepower is not as good as that of the Japs, I should just wait to die. This battle is just a routine of beating the old master to death with random punches.

.

On the contrary, the machine gun squad was very successful in suppressing the car behind. The officers in the car were full of bastard boxes and sabers. They were delivering food in front of the machine gun. The sporadic counterattacks were also named by Li Dayan's grenade.

.

But what makes Zhang Yunfei want to scold him is that the marksmanship of those recruits and the district team is really incredible. He originally thought that they could not miss the target at least thirty meters, but it seems that he completely overestimated them, most of them.

I don’t know where the bullets went. It was just a waste of bullets by firing the gun in a panic, and the noise was too loud. The Japanese counterattacked and killed several of them.

Now that they have an obvious advantage, Zhang Yunfei will naturally not engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese. They will take out bullets to torture the new recruits. Now it would be foolish to sacrifice the lives of veterans to save a few bullets.

The battle went very smoothly, but Zhang Yunfei felt that the ground was full of chicken feathers. It was all caused by wasting bullets. It also caused more than ten casualties, most of which were inexperienced district squads and recruits. He himself

Only two veterans died, and three were injured. The casualty ratio between recruits and veterans on the battlefield was completely different.

Zhang Yunfei looked at the corpses of the Japanese on the ground and fell into deep thought. In this battle, the recruits and the district team did not contribute much except casualties. However, they were in high spirits after the war. Even Sister Jia was looking at the corpses of the Japanese with great interest.
