my bright sword career

Chapter 672 Search Alliance
The sound of big raindrops falling on the leaves, and the weak groans of the wounded Wei Youren kept coming to Song Xiaobao's ears. He knew that the fate of the whole team was now resting on his shoulders.

If he couldn't knock out the devil's sharpshooter in time, the entire team was in danger of being wiped out.

At this time, he couldn't help thinking of the teaching of a senior who was a hunter who was the most famous of the 200th Division: When you encounter a devil's sharpshooter, if you don't find the enemy, you must first learn to put yourself in another place. If you are a little devil, you will How to do it.

Any fool knows that once a shot is fired, the target must be quickly shifted, and it is an act of courting death to stay where it is.

Judging from the situation just now, the kid on the other side is a shrewd guy, and he would definitely not make such a low-level mistake.But in which direction will he go?

Song Xiaobao looked around. All his comrades were hiding behind tree trunks and concealed objects. If the devil's sharpshooter wanted to expand his results, he would definitely need to detour from both sides to attack, but would he detour from the left or the right?
By the way, even if the little devil makes a detour, he will definitely not go too close, and the right flank is an open field tens of meters away, without any shelters or bunkers. Once he fires, his own grenades can blow him to pieces, so...

After judging the general direction of the enemy, Song Xiaobao moved the barrel of the gun slowly, and stared at the left wing with wide eyes.

The lush green tropical bushes blocked the view, and the rain hit the bushes, causing the leaves to shake slightly.At this moment, a bush in the aiming circle suddenly shook violently.

Song Xiaobao saw a clump of green weeds emerging from under the bushes. Although he was not very clear, his intuition told him that this was what he was looking for.

"You bastard, I finally found you."

Accompanied by a dull gunshot, Song Xiaobao saw the green weeds collapse suddenly, obviously hitting the target.

After receiving Song Xiaobao's safety gesture, a soldier closest to Wei Youren immediately rushed to his side, took out a bandage from his body to stop the bleeding, but it was no longer needed, the pale Wei Youren had already stopped breathing.

The reconnaissance team divided into three combat groups also began to rush towards the direction of the Japanese army at this time. After a burst of grenade explosions and rapid machine gunfire, the rainforest returned to silence again, only the rustling sound of rain hitting the leaves.

"Sir, the devil's investigation team has been wiped out, but Wei Youren..."

Hearing the bad news reported by his subordinates, Song Changgui slammed his helmet on the ground, and the other soldiers also stood in place, looking down at Wei Youren, who was lying on the ground pale and wide-eyed.

They lost another comrade in arms who lived and died together. The rainwater slipped from their bodies and splashed into the light blood under their feet. Soon, the blood became weaker and weaker until it was completely washed away by the rain...

"Gu Wenyi...carry Xiao Wei on your back, let's go home!"

When it was almost evening, the rain finally stopped. A reconnaissance team composed of more than a dozen young soldiers was walking hard in the dense jungle. There was no laughter before, and inexplicable sadness lingered in everyone's heart.

The rain was continuous, and there were several inconspicuous courtyards in the east of Yangon City. Some camouflage branches were randomly piled up around the courtyards, and some officers walked by from time to time.

Gao Jiwen, deputy commander of the 200th Division, sat on a stool made of cannonball boxes, looking at the sky that had just cleared up and started the afternoon less than a night later, his thin face was full of exhaustion.

Since the death of the division commander General Dai Anlan a few days ago, the radio station of the division headquarters was also broken. The chief of staff Zhou Zhi had no choice but to personally lead a platoon to Yangon to seek help from Commander Luo Zhuoying.

Now everything in Tonggu City is on his shoulders, especially these days, the Japanese planes have intensified their bombing of Tonggu, which makes it even more difficult for the 200th Division, which already lacks anti-aircraft weapons.

Just yesterday, Liu Shaohua, the head of the 599th regiment, died while commanding the battle. Gao Jiwen could only serve as the head of the 599th regiment himself, which made him even more tired.

"Sir... Gao sir!"

Accompanied by the sound of trampling on muddy water, Liu Shuren, the head of the engineering regiment, strode in.

"Sir... just now, a reconnaissance team we sent out came back, and they brought back a message that they encountered the 56th Japanese Search Wing near Langguji in the east. The reconnaissance team and them briefly After the exchange of fire, they quickly evacuated, and the purpose of the Japanese army is still unclear for the time being.”

"The 56th Search Wing? What are they here for?" Gao Jiwen immediately became vigilant.

In other words, in some divisions of the Japanese army, there is a special unit: the search wing.As the name suggests, this unit is responsible for the most important battle reconnaissance missions, but it doesn't stop there, it also undertakes multiple tasks such as battle breakthroughs, battle maneuvers, and battle pursuits.

Their organization is also very interesting. They are equipped with cavalry and even chariots, and the soldiers are also carefully selected from various units.

Judging from the above description, this kind of regiment seems to be quite powerful, with well-equipped troops and well-trained soldiers. At first glance, they seem to be quite elite.

But in fact, this kind of wing is still very different from ordinary infantry wing.

His biggest problem is that the establishment is too small.

Ordinary infantry regiments can generally have more than 800 or even 4000 people, but the search regiment has more than 400 and less than 500 people.

Therefore, their main combat mission is not to fight positional warfare, but to detect, raid and infiltrate. This is already a bit of the embryonic form of special commandos in later generations.

Where is that team now, get their captain to meet me immediately.

"Yes!"

Soon, a second lieutenant was brought in front of him by the guards.

"Report sir, Song Changgui, the captain of the No.11 investigation team, is here to report, please give me instructions!"

"Take a break!"

Gao Jiwen waved his hand and handed him a tea mug, "Sit down and drink some water."

"Thank you, sir." Song Changgui was not polite, took the tea mug and gulped down the water in one gulp, then put the tea mug on the table.

Seeing that he had finished drinking the water, Gao Jiwen said, "Finally, what did you see in Languji?"

Song Changgui said: "We found a Japanese army consisting of more than 100 cavalry and more than ten Type [-] tanks.

Originally we wanted to get closer to investigate, but we didn't expect that the Japanese army was extremely vigilant. Even though it was still raining heavily, they still sent a considerable number of guard posts and we were discovered as soon as we approached.

For this reason, we had to evacuate immediately, but this Japanese army secretly sent troops to pursue us, and even sent a small army to go around in front of us to stop us, and we almost couldn't come back.

Fortunately, we caught a wounded prisoner. After interrogation, we found out that they were the 56th Search Wing, but the prisoner didn't know the purpose of their trip. "
