Chapter 197 The National Army Lure the Enemy
The bamboo forest suddenly became much quieter, leaving more than thirty people lying or prone on the ground, some of them corpses, and some of them still struggling and howling.
The puppet soldiers in the forest were not unambiguous. They all stretched out their weapons and fired at the possible shooting position to the north of the bamboo forest. No matter where you were, no matter whether you could hit or not, you could hit them.
You have to speak out first, this is fire suppression.
This rapid shooting was really effective. The gunshots deep in the bamboo forest stopped, but the guerrilla who was suppressed in front took advantage of the chaos and ran away.
The Japs in the back are also stupid. From the beginning of the war to now, they haven't even touched the shadow of the guerrillas. The casualties have reached one-third of the soldiers who came out this time. It is difficult to fight the guerrillas in the bamboo forest. Anyway, the small ones below
The fighting on the battlefield was fierce, so I won't hit you. The Japanese sergeant ordered to start throwing grenades forward, and then ordered to retreat. He took away all the attacking Japanese corpses, but forgot about the puppet corpses, and moved forward.
There might even be casualties.
Since we are going to retreat, we can't lower the momentum. We bring so many bullets and don't shoot them. How can we be embarrassed to go back? The Japanese and puppet soldiers who retreated a hundred meters with the corpses of the Japanese are lying in those pits, facing the mountains.
He fired his gun randomly, with no intention of hitting it. As long as the guerrillas in the mountains didn't catch up, if they didn't block it, they would retreat. Maybe the guerrillas in front of them would rush up and throw a few grenades.
It's over.
The gunshots broke into a large area, like exploding beans, and slowly turned into shots fired in the east and west. The bullets fired by the puppet soldiers from the edge of the forest occasionally passed through the bamboo forest and flew aimlessly into the bamboo forest.
, Chen Yong crouched, hurriedly came to Li Yuan, knelt down and asked, "Brother, why did all these Japanese and puppet soldiers escape without being beaten? What should we do now?"
Li Yuan didn't say anything. He looked at the Japanese puppet troops who had retreated far away: "Let's clean up the battlefield first. We sacrificed many soldiers and used so many bullets. Besides, we have to collect some interest back."
Chen Yong accepted the order, ducked and ran away.
If we had known that these puppet troops were so weak, we should have pulled out all the troops and killed all the attacking Japanese and puppet troops. Now that the Japanese and puppet troops have all run away, it is useless to say anything.
Chen Yong returned to his squadron and immediately called three soldiers to reconnoiter down the mountain. He asked one of his detachment leaders to lead a detachment of soldiers to follow them to clean up the battlefield. All the Japanese soldiers were taken away by the Japanese puppet troops.
Only the guns and ammunition of the puppet soldiers were still there, and there were only about twenty puppet soldiers. There were not many bullets, and they could not cope with the bullets fired.
Southwest corner of Hongxingqiao Town.
The puppet troops that attacked the town retreated and slowly advanced towards the town again. The puppet troops were swept away by the national army's machine guns, and were killed and injured by grenades. The national army's machine guns stopped firing, and the puppet troops
After finding cover, the Japanese went to the bamboo forest in the south, where two national soldiers were eating to death, and one of the Japanese behind them died.
The puppet platoon leader yelled loudly from behind. He calmed down, thought about the crisis just now, and arranged for a few puppet soldiers to bandage the wounded. He carefully asked several puppet soldiers around him. According to the casualties, he
It was concluded that the national army guerrillas on the opposite side were well prepared.
He wanted to waste his weakness on the puppet army, so he shouted fiercely, but did not urge anyone specifically, so he kept looking at the eyes of the Japanese sergeant to see how the puppet army in front was attacking. Anyway, the sergeant did not
Even after urging him, he didn't bother to let his brothers go up and die.
The Japs' order was to open the door to the south and let the Chinese troops escape. It was a very strange order, but the attack from the north was carried out vigorously.
The Japanese's current formation is similar to a frontal attack from the north, outflanking from both wings. The puppet troops attacking from the front have already entered the town, leaving more than twenty corpses on the ground.
The sound of rifle gunfire on the small street became more and more intensive. Machine guns on both sides were still firing at each other. Hand grenades continued to explode. The national army company commander kept cursing in a low voice and led the defensive platoon in the north to retreat while fighting.
, after entering the street battle, as the distance between the two parties shortened, the voices became clearer, as well as the howls and groans of those who had been shot.
The national army still has its advantage now. It has been stationed in the town and is more familiar with the terrain than the puppet army. With the same firepower, street fighting is originally beneficial to the defending side.
Just waiting for these puppet troops to come in, the national army immediately retreated to the back of the town. The houses in the town were relatively thick, mostly wooden structures, with fireproof brick walls built not far away. Most of them only had one floor.
It is a house that is high in the middle and low at the front and back. Basically, an attic for storing sundries is added to the flat eaves of the house.
The roofs have bright glass tiles for lighting, and a small number of houses have skylights in the attics. The national troops are hiding in these houses. The Japanese shelling earlier caused some houses to burn, and it has not been extinguished yet. The common people in Jiangnan
Wooden houses have fire prevention measures, and almost three or four families have high fire-proof brick walls, so they will not be burned down.
The second platoon leader was a veteran of the National Army and was hiding in a private house with his second platoon brothers. He felt vaguely that this Japanese attack was different from the previous attacks in Shanghai. The Japanese did not deploy their troops on a large scale, which was a bit like playing monkey tricks.
It seemed like I was a little bit murmuring in my heart.
The company commander ordered the enemy to come in and retreated here. However, the puppet soldiers did not follow. They fired with machine guns for a long time. Except for the enemy shelling at some time, which injured a few brothers, I did not see a single puppet soldier at this time.
figure, the Japanese artillery fire has stopped, and the machine gun fire is fierce. Based on experience, the infantry should start to attack, but there is no sense of the combination of the Japanese infantry and artillery.
Now when he returned, he didn't see any ghosts. He turned around and asked the soldiers behind him: "Is there any news from our outpost?"
"They say that only the puppet troops are attacking, and the Japanese are holding down the enemy behind. They are still two to three hundred meters away from us."
"What the hell is this devil doing?"
At this time, another soldier came over and said, "Platoon commander, listen to the gunfire, the puppet troops are advancing into the city."
Okay, I didn't show any shame to those puppet soldiers in Zhenbei just now. If they dare to come in this time, I will kill them both. Be careful.
The second platoon leader pricked up his ears, but there was a lot of gunfire from the north side of the house a few floors away. Except for the sentry in front, there was no one. What were the puppet soldiers fighting? The devil's trick in the distance
The roars were also very clear, da da da da... firing like fried beans, occasionally mixed with the calls of the puppet soldiers.
The second platoon leader had a sudden thought. The puppet troops were throwing grenades and firing randomly without even seeing anyone attacking. They had to be given a chance to prevent their attack from going too smoothly. He simply sent a few brothers north from the side street.
