After the Meiji Restoration, Japan established a modern army and navy. Its combat ideas and theories were copied from France in the early stage. Later, it learned from Germany and was deeply influenced by the German army's "war of annihilation" thinking. This was naturally reflected in the Japanese army's doctrine and regulations.

Frontal containment and flanking penetration are classic tactics. However, the Japanese army's application is very rigid. It is too rigid and rigid in combat, and it is mostly implemented by small groups.

The most basic means of annihilation warfare, such as campaign-level insertions, detours, divisions, and encirclements, or "encirclement and reinforcements" were almost never used by the Japanese.

So much so that the Japanese army and the fruit army seemed to have reached a tacit understanding. The fruit army could successfully withdraw from the encirclement before the Japanese army completed the encirclement every time, creating countless "flying generals".

So so far, the main force of the Guo army has been defeated by the enemy, and there has not been any case of being surrounded and annihilated by the Japanese army. However, a lot of anti-Japanese forces have been preserved.

The Japanese responsible for besieging the condolences group and government personnel, like other Japanese, deployed two detour teams as early as the beginning of the battle, trying to outflank and eliminate the target in front of them.

Each of these two teams has nearly half a squad, which is about 30 people. The total of the two teams exceeds 60 people. Including the Japanese attacking from the front, it far exceeds the number of people present at the outpost.

Zuo Zhong's guess was obviously correct. They had been surrounded by enemies. If they retreated rashly, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The weapons used by the opponent include bolt-action rifles such as the Sanba Gaigai and Zhongquan, as well as automatic firearms such as the Czech and Kirari KE-7 light machine guns. These weapons are equipped or captured on all routes.

"A sharpshooter, a machine gunner and commander who shoots at the enemy."

Wu Chunyang, who was responsible for the defense on the left wing, leaned out of the bunker, used Thomson's short burst to knock down an enemy, and loudly pointed out the attack target to the sharpshooter.

Now that the agents are at a numerical disadvantage, all they can rely on is firepower. Eliminating the Japs' firepower and command core can further amplify this advantage.

The military sharpshooter was lying in a bush. After hearing Wu Chunyang's order, he did not rush to shoot. After observing carefully for a while under the moonlight, he found a target without any identification mark.

Although the opponent held a rifle and looked like an ordinary soldier, he kept using gestures to organize the surrounding Japanese to attack. He was at least a sergeant or corps commander.

The M1924 heavy barrel rifle in the hands of the sharpshooter moved slightly, pointed the Carl Zeiss scope above the gun body at the target, and decisively pulled the trigger when the sight line coincided with the opponent's chest.

A screened 7.92MM bullet spun out of the gun barrel, and at an exit speed of 810 meters per second, it flew for a few milliseconds and successfully hit the gesticulating Japanese.

This person did not struggle or cover his chest, but fell to the ground quietly. War is so cruel.

The sharpshooter didn't see all this. The moment he fired, he rolled away from the bushes, and with the help of several tactical evasive maneuvers, he entered the second shooting position that he had already found and took aim.

It turns out that he did so.

As soon as the sharpshooters lay down, several bullets sent branches and leaves flying from the original shooting position. There were also sharpshooters among the Japanese, and their marksmanship was very accurate and their reactions were quick.

This is normal. The Japanese army has always been pursuing "always hitting the mark" in training. At this stage, almost everyone in the Japanese army can do it, let alone sharpshooters.

But sharpshooters not only need accurate marksmanship, but also need to undergo many professional trainings such as concealment, escape, target determination, etc. These Japanese sharpshooters do not have it, so they can only be regarded as precision shooters.

A trace of disdain flashed in the eyes of the military sharpshooter, and he breathed out slowly to prevent the breath from blowing up the loose soil on the ground. He then quickly fired based on the muzzle flash in his memory, and hid in another location again.

More than two hundred meters away, a Japanese sharpshooter holding a Type 2.5 sniper rifle was lying between two rocks. A big hole appeared on his forehead, and the x optical sight at the rear of the gun was also shattered.

The Japanese commander was so angry that he scolded Baga. The Republic of China people on the opposite side were too difficult to deal with, and they were different from all the Guojun and Eighth Route Army they had encountered before.

Not only does he have a brave will to fight, but his weapons, equipment, and tactical qualities are also comparable to the elite of the Imperial Field Division.

Who is the other party? Is it the teaching team that was completely wiped out in the Battle of Jinling? The Japanese commander thought about it and prepared to lead the charge himself.

This is the area under the jurisdiction of the underground party. Large troops from the Eighth Route Army may appear at any time. We must make a quick decision and complete the task as quickly as possible.

Sniper rifles are certainly scary, but they are rifles with a slow rate of fire after all. As long as they pay some negligible casualties, they can offset the threat posed by sharpshooters.

"Give me the assault!"

The Japanese commander decisively gave the order and issued an attack signal.

Before he finished speaking, two bullets hit his head and chest respectively. The two military sharpshooters who had been waiting for a long time did not miss this opportunity and killed him with one shot.

The rest of the Japanese seemed not to have seen their commander die in battle. They shouted "Hei Ka Board" and rushed forward in a daze. They didn't care even if someone around them was killed. They only had the target in their eyes.

Of course, the Japanese were not really stupid. When the infantry charged, the two grenade launchers located at the rear of the position began to fire. The military command position was exploded into flames, killing and wounding many operational personnel.

In the absence of heavy weapons on both sides, the grenade turned into an out-and-out killer weapon, and the situation on the left wing was precarious for a while.

"Pooh."

Wu Chunyang buried his head to avoid the shock wave of the explosion, stood up and spit out the dust in his mouth, raised his submachine gun and fired half a drum at the Japanese who were only ten meters away from the defense line, killing four or five enemies on the spot.

The agents next to him heard the gunfire, as if they had heard the order, and started to fight back with various weapons, blocking the Japanese in front of their position.

At the same time, Gui Youguang on the right was also in danger.

Compared with the left wing, the terrain on the right wing was more complicated. The Japanese ignored the sharpshooters' shooting and used bunkers to leap forward in turns, and soon they were in a melee with the little spies.

In close-range fights, rifles and submachine guns are overpowered and can easily cause accidental injuries. Cold weapons are more useful than guns at this time.

After the Japanese broke into the position, they automatically separated into groups of two, holding Sanba Gaigai with bayonets, and rushed over viciously.

If Zuo Zhong were present, he would have discovered that the opponent did not eject all the bullets as many people thought, but only ejected the loaded bullets, turned off the safety, and then started stabbing. Think about it, the Sanba Daigai is a bolt-action rifle, and it requires at least three actions to remove the bullet.

Cock the gun.

Pull the bolt back.

Then use your hands to remove the bullets from the gun one by one.

Due to the unique reason of the 38 cap, unfired bullets will not automatically pop out of the magazine. Removing all the bullets requires a very long time and very complicated actions.

It takes almost 2 seconds to remove each bullet, not counting the time to reset the bolt.

So is it okay if the gun bolt is not reset?

Of course not. The open bolt of the gun during stabbing will trap the hand holding the gun butt. This is no different from seeking death.

Time is life on the battlefield, and a person's life or death can often be determined by one more second or one less second. No matter how stupid the Japanese are, they know this.

Whether it is a first-line division, a second-line division, or a garrison division, the Japanese army's engagement manual does not require hand-to-hand combat to avoid bullets to prevent penetrating injuries. There is only high-intensity training over and over again.

These Japs who have received professional stabbing training, in previous battles, two people can defeat a squad of Guojun and the Eighth Route Army.

But that was against ordinary combat units. When facing spies, the Japanese were not so relaxed.

This time when we came to the northwest, all the agents were equipped with pistols. For the convenience of replenishing bullets, the PPK was replaced by the powerful 1911.

When the ferocious-looking Japanese soldiers were about to use their bayonets to educate the other side about the spirit of Bushido, what they encountered were not bayonets or broadswords, but automatic pistols with a caliber of 11.43mm.

The special agents who undergo monthly shooting assessments looked at the enemy who was only a dozen or even a few meters away, bared their white teeth, and opened fire suddenly with the 1911 close to their sides.

The 11.43mm bullet has an excellent stopping effect. The person who is hit will lose the ability to move in a very short time. There will never be a situation where he is still alive and kicking after being shot several times.

After emptying a magazine, the agents did not look at the bodies lying on the ground. They pulled out their daggers and held them behind their backs. They lowered their bodies and fought closely around the remaining Japanese.

There is a saying in the traditional martial arts circle that every inch is long and strong, and every inch short is dangerous.

Whether a long weapon or a short weapon is easier to use depends on the level of the weapon user. An expert in action can still kill people with a chopstick.

The operatives of the military command, especially the members of the special operations team under Gui Youguang, began brutal kill training after entering the military command, and they never stopped during this period.

The Japs' stabbing skills are powerful, but in the eyes of the spies, their speed is slow, their movements are wide, and there are flaws everywhere.

The short and sharp daggers stabbed or scratched, creating fatal wounds on the carotid arteries, armpits, leg arteries, and heels of the Japanese.

In the chaotic crowd, Gui Youguang kicked the enemy away with a sliding shovel, rushed forward before the opponent could stand up, and cut off the opponent's neck. He then ran forward with his hands on the ground, avoiding a sneak attack from a bayonet.

The owner of the bayonet did not expect that he would react so quickly. Just as he raised his feet to continue the pursuit, he felt a cold under his armpits and immediately collapsed to the ground weakly.

"Keep your distance and use Thomson!"

Gui Youguang looked around and realized that he had sacrificed several of his men in a short period of time. He shouted out in pain.

It costs a lot of money for the special operations team to train a qualified team member. Let alone ten, or twenty, he would be at a huge loss.

Zuo Zhong, who was on the main position, saw this scene from a distance and wanted to send people to support, but he no longer had any mobile troops on hand, so he could only hope that there would be light to withstand it.

"Oh no, the Japanese are coming from behind."

At this time, Xu Enzeng rolled and crawled to Zuo Zhong's side, throwing the gun in his hand somewhere, and shouted in panic.

In addition to the front and left and right wings, the Japanese also sent a detour team to go behind them from farther away.

Looking at the Japanese who were getting closer and closer, Zuo Zhong knew that he had to fight hard if he wanted to survive. There was no unbreakable encirclement in the world, and breaking through the encirclement could also turn into an attack.

Today, I came to one of its centers to bloom. Ah, this sentence is unlucky. It should be elite, so what, I hit the elite. After thinking about it, Zuo Zhong kicked Xu Enzeng in the buttocks.

"Go away!"

"Ouch."

Xu Enzeng let out a strange scream and rushed out along the hillside. He waved his hands, and under the influence of inertia, his two short legs flew upside down like hot wheels, and he ran into the crowd of Japanese soldiers.

The Japanese only saw a black shadow slithering past, and subconsciously fired a few shots, but the opponent was too fast and missed a single shot, so the gunfire became more intensive.

Feeling the bullets passing by him, Xu Enzeng shed tears as he ran. As a result, he accidentally stumbled under his feet. Out of instinct, he held his head, rolled up his body into a ball, and continued to roll down the mountain.

In the darkness, the muzzle of a Type 97 sniper rifle followed Xu Enzeng closely. After it hit a big tree and stopped, the Japanese sharpshooter smiled, put his finger on the trigger and whispered something.

"caught you."

"boom……"

(guess the result)
