under fire

Chapter 215 Attack
The terrain of the mountain is steep and the area is wide, which has little impact on the action. Most of the devils marched on the mountain ridge under the leadership of the squadron leader.

The same squad, acting as vanguards, advanced along the mountain ridge to the village where the flames appeared, and sent a small team from the valley to follow up with the vanguards earlier to outflank, up and down.

The road ahead stretches towards the mountainside, and it should lead to the village on the mountainside, and the Eighth Road is not far ahead!
"Report to the regiment leader, a large number of devils are found coming from the mountain ridge in the north! It is estimated that there are more than a dozen, and there will be more follow-up, the number is unknown!" The sentinel found the vanguard of the devils coming from the mountain ridge, and immediately rushed to the headquarters to report.

"What? The devil didn't find out until he touched the door of the house? Order, retreat to the south immediately! What are you scouting platoon doing?" Captain Lu woke up when the door was pushed open, turned over and sat up, and fell asleep on the floor of the room with his clothes on The people followed and got up.

"The comrades who went to the north for reconnaissance have not come back, so" the sentinel replied awkwardly.

"Don't talk about it, hurry up and notify the troops, and move south immediately, the second company will be in charge of the rear! Come back and deal with you!"

He didn't plan to fight the devils head-on at all. If there were only a dozen or so devils, it wouldn't matter, but the enemy's situation was unknown, so we should retreat first and look for opportunities in the movement.

The messenger who brought the sentinel saluted immediately: "Yes!"

As soon as the voice fell, he immediately turned around and prepared to go out.

Bang, a gunshot, trembling in the busy heart under the moonlight, the gunshot did not come from the mountain ridge in the north, it should be at the cliff in the east of the village!

Under the moonlight, the devil who first climbed up to be on guard immediately turned into a corpse, because he was shot in the head, and the bullet from the chamber at close range overturned the back of his head, bringing out a cloud of liquid splash.

The sound of the gunshot shook the second devil, who had climbed up half of his body cautiously. He was stunned for a moment, instinctively lowered his body, lay down on the ground, and quickly grabbed the rifle behind his back.

Click, in the darkness opposite, the sound of a bullet being loaded came, the devil had just pulled the rifle from behind, his scalp was numb, and his soul was gone, the eight-way gun on the opposite side must have been aimed at him, the distance was less than ten meters!
It was impossible to shoot faster than Balu. Even if there was a sentry beside him, he couldn't hide it. As a last resort, he immediately rolled sideways, hoping to avoid Balu's shooting.

The calf was still outside the cliff, and he had nowhere to rely on. He skillfully pulled and pushed the bolt while rolling, and shot at the position where the fire flashed just now based on his feeling.

Bang, bang, gunshots sounded one after another, followed by two muffled grunts.

The soldiers who were sleeping in the village were already running towards the place where the gun was fired before the orderer notified them. Several black shadows immediately shot towards the darkness who heard the sound of footsteps.

"The devil is on the mountain! Hit me!" Running ahead was a squad leader of the supplementary regiment, his eyes widened and he couldn't see any more details. The rifle in his hand fired at the black shadow flashing from the muzzle. .

The half-squatting devil didn't have time to take cover, and while shooting, he took off the grenade, held the black guy in his hand, pulled off the insurance, used to hit Bai on the head, and then threw it at the charging Balu.

It's a pity that there are only a few devils in hand-to-hand combat, but they rushed into the eight-way lair as soon as they came up.

The gun was still ringing, and after a while, the grenade exploded, and shrapnel flew in all directions, killing and wounding all eight people, and the devils had already fallen down.

The leader of the devil, Sergeant Cao, opened his mouth and looked in surprise at the eight roads rushing towards him. He had already fired five bullets from his rifle, and threw all four grenades into the crowd of eight roads. There was no time to put bullets into the gun. Holding the rifle with the bayonet attached, he was ready to step forward and fight with the Eighth Route Army.

It's a pity that even the soldiers of the supplementary regiment, who were short of ammunition, didn't step forward stupidly. Facing the idiot charging with a bayonet, a few bullets got into the sergeant's body.

Juncao didn't understand before he died: Didn't it mean that there are only forty or fifty in the Eight Routes?Not counting the people who didn't come out, the eight roads in front of me alone, at least more than 100, where did so many come from?

"Clear the devils on the mountain road immediately!" A voice shouted.

Unfortunately, apart from knocking down a few devils who had just climbed up, the devils below retreated back, sticking to the mountain wall, the two sides could not see each other, and shot randomly to suppress them.

"I don't believe that the devil can still go up! Hold the intersection and throw grenades!"

"The commander ordered that there are enemies on the mountain in the north, retreat to the south immediately!" The correspondent followed up from behind and conveyed the order to the people who were clearing the battlefield, carrying sacrifices, and wounded sentries.

After being stunned for a while, the leader of the platoon leader muttered: "Why does it look wrong? The devils came over without a sound, how do they know we are here?"

"Quickly evacuate and obey orders!"

"You guys go first, I'll be watching here, don't let the devils below bite you."

The number of the ghost team below is ominous, but they must not be tolerated to keep up.

A grenade flew down one by one.

The retreating team headed south in embarrassment, and slowly climbed up the mountain ridge. From the north, there were also gunfire from the devils, exploding grenades and grenades, and screams.

The blocking team lowered their bodies and each looked for the target. The terrain of the mountain ridge is not flat, and they can hide everywhere. The distance between the two sides is not too far. Shoot where the fire shines.

The Ninth Company and the Second Company were [-] meters away in a straight line, and they heard gunshots faintly coming from the north.

"Captain Hu, perhaps, you are right. Judging from the intensity of the gunfire, there are quite a lot of people on both sides of the exchange of fire. However, to supplement the combat effectiveness of the regiment." Company Commander Chen was excited, but also a little worried.

"Since you are on the battlefield, you must be prepared!"

"If you notify them first, at least they can make some preparations!"

"The headquarters is at a time of life and death, so how can we care so much! Even if we tell them, will they believe it?" Hu Yi never thought that the head of the northern army would bring Gao Yidao , but the number reported by the reconnaissance squad leader Wang happened to be the spy squad.

"Then what should we do next?" Company Commander Chen unknowingly put himself in a very low position.

Hu Yi looked at Company Commander Chen. He had asked this question a thousand times, but he really didn't know how to answer it.

"When Squad Leader Wang comes back, if you don't find the devil in the east, go east until you find the devil, go south and then turn east!"

Listening to the sound and judging by feeling, the place where the war broke out was about ten miles away in a straight line. Hu Yi observed carefully to the north for a while, but under the moonlight, he couldn't see anything.

The sound of gunfire also reached the team pursuing from the west.

The devils in the reinforcements had almost rested, and the reinforcement came was a lieutenant, who was very annoyed at the war-defying behavior of the pursuit team led by the second lieutenant. After listening to the second lieutenant's report, the lieutenant began to pay attention to the opponent in front.

Standing next to him was the beaten second lieutenant, with fingerprints on his face, and smiled as he watched the lieutenant mark the approximate locations of the encirclement and mopping up troops on the map. Combined with the mopping directions of other troops that he learned before departure, he carefully thought about it and occasionally revised it.

Hearing gunshots, he stepped out of the tent and looked north.

Could it be that the eight-way team was found in the north again?
After a long while: "Go immediately and attack eastward!"

A group of second lieutenants and sergeants immediately began to pack their things and arrange the next move.
