Chapter 181 Kick off the decisive battle
Bang bang
In the bushes, the original calm was broken by the sudden gunfire.n∈n∈,
"Enemy attack! There are ambushing from the Easterners, hide! All teams are hiding immediately!" The young reconnaissance company commander Du Xiaoshan immediately shouted and issued an order when he heard the gunshots.
Dada dada dada
The sound of machine guns suddenly rang out, dense bullets kept flying out of the bushes, and soldiers from the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army in the reconnaissance company were shot and fell to the ground.
However, the soldiers of the reconnaissance company did not react slowly. After hearing Du Xiaoshan's shouting orders, they lay down on the spot or hid behind the shelters such as tree trunks.
"Damn it, company commander, I'm afraid the Eastern people have at least one squadron when they hear the gunshot! There are so many troops, dogs, Japanese Eastern people are actually ambushing and attacking. It's so shameless, damn!" Ding Changshui, the leader of the reconnaissance company, cursed.
Du Xiaoshan was not panicked, but judged the hidden position of the Japanese army based on the gunshots, and then shouted and ordered: "At two o'clock, the grenade group dropped bombs, and used the grenades to greet these dogs, Japanese Orientals! The rest, firepower cover!"
Click
Du Xiaoshan pulled the bolt and loaded the bullet. Then, taking advantage of the gap between Japanese shooting, he suddenly turned around and came out of the tree trunk, raised his gun and shot at the location where the Japanese army was.
Gunshots rang out, and the other soldiers of the reconnaissance company followed Du Xiaoshan and fired at the Japanese army.
Click
Almost didn't look at whether the shot just now hit the target. Du Xiaoshan quickly pulled the bolt, raised the gun and fired, and then continued to repeat this action, trying his best to shoot the most bullets at the fastest speed in order to suppress the Japanese army.
The reconnaissance company's sudden increase in firepower output was very obvious, and the ambushed Japanese army was suddenly suppressed.
Feeling that the Japanese firepower had greatly weakened, the grenades, who had been preparing for a long time, rolled forward for a long time, then took off the grenade inserted at the waist, unscrewed the bottom cover, and pulled the strings hard. They swung hard towards the bushes where the Japanese were located at two o'clock.
Boom
Explosions sounded one after another, and balls of fireworks rose into the air from the bushes. Many dry shrubs and weeds were even ignited by the explosion, and the flames began to spread gradually.
The screams of Japanese soldiers and the scolding of officers came from the bushes. There was noisy and chaos.
"The sharpshooter climbs up the tree and finds an opportunity to kill the Eastern Army officers! The rest of the people follow me and don't give the Eastern Army time to react!" Du Xiaoshan made a quick decision to take advantage of the chaos of the Japanese army and led all the soldiers in the reconnaissance company to rush towards the Japanese army.
Three veteran sharpshooters in the reconnaissance company heard Du Xiaoshan's orders and immediately rushed up the tree with agility and looked for valuable targets to snipe.
The concept of sniper has been popularized by the entire Yimeng Autonomous Alliance under the training of officers at all levels. However, snipers who have been systematically rigorously trained are now only available in special forces, and the troops below allow sharpshooters with accurate marksmanship to be used as snipers.
Not to mention, although it is not as powerful as a real sniper, it is indeed very useful. Therefore, all units of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance attach great importance to sharpshooters with accurate marksmanship.
Seeing the approaching of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Reconnaissance Company, the Japanese officers no longer cared about extinguishing the flames in the bushes, but instead shouted loudly and organized soldiers to block the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Reconnaissance Company that rushed towards him.
The Japanese officer jumped and shouted, was immediately locked by three sharpshooters in the tree, and aimed at him and pulled the trigger.
Three guns almost rang out in one go. The officer who was actively commanding the Japanese soldiers accurately hit the Japanese officer. The loud shouts of the Japanese officer stopped abruptly and fell to the ground and died weakly.
After approaching the Japanese army's location, Du Xiaoshan immediately shouted: "Grenade!"
At this time, it was not only the people from the grenade team, but all the soldiers in the reconnaissance company took off the long-handled grenade at their waists, pulled the strings, and threw them towards the Japanese army.
Boom
Dozens of grenades suddenly hit the Japanese army and immediately exploded.
Grenades are indeed powerful combat weapons when close forces are connected. In many cases, the reconnaissance forces of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance can turn defeat into victory and defeat the Japanese troops with higher quality than theirs and have superior military strength. To a large extent, they all rely on the power of grenades.
Losing the command organization and being bombed with so many grenades, the Japanese army could not withstand it and began to retreat continuously.
"I want to run away? How can I do such a cheap thing? Brothers, chase after me and kill these Eastern bastards!" Du Xiaoshan yelled, then threw down Mauser's rifle, pulled out the wrench gun at his waist, and chased the retreating Japanese army first.
The fierce battle between Du Xiaoshan, a reconnaissance company, and the Japanese small troops is not an isolated case. It is just one of the countless fierce battles of the front-line reconnaissance and police forces of the Chinese and Japanese armies.
As the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance approached the 18th Division of the Japanese Army less than 30 miles away, and continued to advance today, the reconnaissance and police forces on the front line fought more and more fiercely with the Japanese small troops.
Obviously, the Japanese's patience has reached its limit, and the decisive battle will inevitably begin.
Yimeng Autonomous Alliance Army, Frontline Temporary Command.
In the command center, senior officers of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance gathered, and several combat staff surrounded the map to calculate and deduce something. From time to time, communication soldiers and messengers walked in and out, looking like a busy scene before the war.
"Report! Report to the commander, not long ago, a reconnaissance company on the front line of our second division was ambushed by a Japanese squadron. The reconnaissance company commander Du Xiaoshan was well commanded and has led the reconnaissance company to successfully defeat the ambushed Japanese squadron!" A correspondent soldier walked into the command center to report to Wang Mohui.
"Okay, good fight! Du Xiaoshan did a pretty job. In a mere reconnaissance company, he was ambushed by a Japanese squadron, and could defeat the Japanese army. Commander, this is the best fight among the front-line reconnaissance and police forces recently." Zhang Wei, commander of the Second Division of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance, said, quite a bit boasting.
Wang Mo smiled and said, "It's a good fight. Du Xiaoshan is from Dujiazhai. You don't have to ask for credit for your officers. How to promote and reuse him is your business, and I have no objection."
Zhang Wei smiled embarrassedly and said, "I am not trying to ask for merit for Du Xiaoshan. I will deal with military merits by the people of the Military Merit Department. I just think it is rare to be able to beat such a beautiful young officer, especially the Yimeng children who have never been to the military academy."
Speaking of this, Wang Mo said seriously: "That's true. There are not many young officers from Yimeng's children, and even fewer ones can be so outstanding. I'm afraid Du Fei may not have such excellent performance as Du Xiaoshan. After this war, if Du Xiaoshan can still be alive, I'll send him to Hubei Military Academy for further study and training hard may not be worse than you."
"Commander, the Eastern people frequently send more troops to fight fiercely with our front-line reconnaissance and police forces. It seems that this is a complete decisive battle with our army." Li Jian said with a serious expression.
Wang Mo nodded and said, "Our army is currently less than twenty miles away from the main force of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army. It would be strange if the Japanese army had no reaction. However, I still said that we have fewer troops and should not take the initiative to attack the Japanese army. We must force the Japanese army to attack our defense line!"
"What if the Japanese army stayed silent, they would shrink into a group to defend themselves?" Zhang Wei asked.
"Then it's better. Pull the artillery regiment up and bang him, mom!" Wang Mo's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and then ordered the commander, "Send the order. Let the artillery regiment push the artillery position forward five miles!"
This tactic of step by step and step by step is not so much a conservative tactic of the entire Yimeng Autonomous Alliance, but rather a tactic that serves the artillery regiment's advancement.
When the troops are at an absolute disadvantage, if you want to defeat the Japanese army, Wang Mo must maximize the firepower advantages of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance! The air support of the Blue Eagle Flying Brigade is ultimately limited because of the fuel problem, so the performance of the artillery regiment is crucial.
As long as the artillery regiment can advance to the effective range of the Japanese artillery bombardment, if the Japanese 18th Division shrinks into a group to defend, it will be conducive to the maximum power of the artillery regiment.
From this point of view, Wang Mo would rather see that Kanou Mitsumon was dizzy and ordered the 18th Japanese division to shrink into a group to defend.
With the issuance of Wang Mo's order, the artillery regiment of the Yimeng Autonomous Alliance once again advanced five miles to the location of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army, and the rest of the troops were also advancing steadily, continuing to oppress and coerce the Japanese army.
...
The 18th Japanese Division, the temporary front command center.
Perhaps it was because of the lessons learned from the last air strike of the Blue Eagle Flying Brigade. This time, Masato Tanuchi set up the command center in a dense forest, and the planes in the sky could not be discovered at all.
"Baga! They are all a group of waste. A squadron ambushed the Chinese people and a reconnaissance company, but they will be defeated by the Chinese reconnaissance company. How could the empire have such a useless soldier as you?" Masato Tanuchi cursed angrily, kicking the sergeant who survived the previous ambush to the ground with one kick.
Kamio Mitsumon comforted him: "God of anger, General. The frequent failures of the battles between our front-line reconnaissance and police forces and the Chinese army were not because these imperial warriors did not fight bravely, but because they suffered a loss of a weapon called "grenades" by the Chinese people."
"Is the new weapon called 'grenade' really so powerful?" asked Masato Taruchi, not very much. It seems that he believes that a new weapon can restrain the Japanese Imperial Army so much.
"This is a small bomb that can be thrown by hands, which is very lethal in close combat." Mitsumon Kamio replied, "The most important thing is that the soldiers of the empire have never been exposed to this new weapon. When they suddenly encounter it, they will inevitably panic. Then the Chinese people seized the opportunity to attack fiercely, which will lead to repeated failures in combat."
"Since that's the case, I will immediately inform all the troops of the army and let all the imperial soldiers be careful of the new weapons of the Chinese. As long as the imperial soldiers are prepared, how could the Chinese be the opponent of my Great Japanese Imperial Army?" Masato Tanouchuchi was still very confident about the individual quality of his army.
Kamio Mitsumon nodded in agreement: "Your Excellency General is saying that the Chinese are far inferior to our army in terms of individual quality and strength. As long as we are more cautious, the Chinese will definitely not escape the defeat!"
While the two were talking, a correspondent soldier walked in and reported loudly: "Report, the call from the Juannei Detachment has been called. They have successfully landed in Anziwan and are advancing quickly towards Jiao County!"
Upon hearing this, Kano Mitsumon and Masato Tanuchi were immediately overjoyed and shouted excitedly: "Okay! That's great!" (To be continued.)
