Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2205 Long Qianyan realized!

"There is only one or a few people on the other side. Find them and kill them!"

Seeing that his subordinates were a little panicked, the old devil Sato quickly gave orders to stabilize the morale of the army.

The Japanese soldiers were no longer so panicked after hearing Colonel Sato's order.

  Because indeed, there were only one or two enemies, and they had so many people, more than three hundred people. Why should they be afraid of just a few people?

Following the order of the old Japanese soldier Sato, a small team of Japanese soldiers quickly took action. They shouted and divided into two groups to charge towards the opposite mountain.

In the darkness of the night, only their blurry figures could be seen moving quickly through the woods.

The bullets were fired from a hill more than 500 meters away, which was an open area with no shielding or obstruction. The Japanese knew that if they wanted to return safely, they had to capture this high ground and eliminate this threat.

  boom!boom!

The sniper on the top of the mountain didn't seem to be afraid of their charge. Gunshots continued to ring out, and every gunshot meant the fall of a Japanese soldier.

However, the Japs were not all fools, they quickly adjusted their tactics.

Some of the Japanese soldiers began to look for cover and fired at the enemy on the hill, trying to suppress their firepower, while the rest of the Japanese soldiers continued to charge, bending over, quickly crossing the open ground and approaching the hill.

The gunfire on the mountain gradually became less frequent, which made the Japanese soldiers overjoyed. They thought that their fire suppression was effective, so they rushed up the mountain at an accelerated speed.

However, just as they were about to reach the top of the mountain, suddenly intensive gunfire rang out again.

This time, the opponent no longer used a sniper rifle but a machine gun.

Yes, it was a machine gun. After a series of bursts of fire, seven or eight Japanese soldiers fell to the ground.

The remaining devils panicked and looked for cover everywhere. However, in this open area, they had almost nowhere to hide.

Old devil Sato's face became increasingly gloomy. He stared at the tragic scene in front of him with wide eyes, his heart filled with anger.

The enemy had only one or two or three people, but they were able to manipulate his well-trained Imperial Japanese Army. This feeling of humiliation almost drove him crazy.

"Artillery ready, fire at the top of the mountain!"

Sato loudly ordered the artillery to fire, and his voice revealed a crazy murderous intent.

However, at this moment, dense gunfire was heard behind them, as fierce as a rainstorm.

The old Japanese soldier Sato was in a panic. He didn't expect that the enemy, who had just been chased by them and fled in a panic, would dare to come back.

He turned around angrily and ordered his Japanese soldiers to launch a counterattack, but the enemy quickly retreated after killing a dozen Japanese soldiers in the back row.

Sato was tricked again and his anger level once again skyrocketed. He ordered a squad to pursue his enemies and not give them the chance to harass the artillery, while the rest of the Japanese were responsible for guarding the artillery and bombarding the heights.

boom! Boom boom!

The Japanese artillery was well-trained. After a brief aiming, they bombarded the high ground 500 meters away.

  The shells fell one by one, scaring the attacking Japanese soldiers to run down the mountain, and they kept cursing, "Who is the idiot who gave the order? We are still charging, but you are firing?"

"Ah, cut! Ah, cut!"

Colonel Sato sneezed several times in succession but didn't care.

And he seemed to know who was scolding him.

"Baga, you bastards. When you come back, I will definitely teach you a lesson."

Sato complained, but no matter what, he had stabilized the situation.

The guerrillas behind him were repelled, while the sniper in front was being bombarded by artillery fire. However, he did not know that Duanwu and Long Qianyan had already retreated after the Japanese artillery opened fire.

To say that just two of them could stop more than 300 Japanese soldiers at one time is a joke.

From the very beginning, Duanwu never thought of wiping out Sato's group all at once.

Because it was impossible to completely wipe them out, the guerrillas had limited manpower, their numbers were even smaller than the Japanese, and they did not have enough weapons and ammunition.

So now Duanwu only wants one thing, which is to take advantage of the Japanese' panic, erode their manpower, force them to retreat, and not even have time to clean up the battlefield.

In other words, Duanwu now wants to pick up junk again.

But the old devil Sato didn't know that. He thought it was because of his own proper tactics that he repelled the guerrillas. Then he immediately fled with his men towards the mountain stronghold.

At the same time, a Japanese troop was coming to support from a distance.

Kitahara Hiroyuki originally planned to watch Sato and Takahashi die, but then he thought that if he didn't send someone to show his respect, it would be hard for the teacher to explain.

So he sent his most capable subordinate, Matsushita, with two teams out of the mountain stronghold to provide support.

Matsushita naturally understood Kitahara Hiroyuki's intention, so he walked very slowly along the way.

  But to Sato, this seemed like a life-saving straw. He led his men and quickly rushed towards the reinforcements. How could he have time to order his men to clean up the battlefield?

So many of the Japanese soldiers' weapons and equipment were left beside the bodies. Duanwu was ordering the guerrillas to strip every Japanese soldier of his weapons and equipment, leaving not even a single bullet behind.

Long Qianyan, who was standing beside Duanwu at this time, sighed and said, "Leader Ye, it's too difficult for us to resupply our weapons. Otherwise, with your command ability, what would a mere two thousand devils be worth?"

Duanwu smiled and said, "As a commander, you cannot complain about your soldiers' lack of combat quality, or the lack of supply of weapons and equipment. You cannot complain about the lack of support.

As a commander, these things are actually our responsibility. In the absence of weapons and equipment, and inability to pay military salaries, we have to make money and weapons and equipment.

Hardship is temporary, as long as we find a way out, we will withdraw from here. Lushunkou, including the Evil Valley, is actually not suitable for long-term combat.

Because we are fighting here, we can only rely on the Japanese for weapons and supplies.

And if the Japanese don’t send us weapons and equipment, how can we fight?

Moreover, the weapons and equipment of the Japanese devils are very convenient for them, but when we use them, we are somewhat constrained.

Because our soldiers have hardly received formal military training, although they have also undergone assault training.

However, compared with the Japanese soldiers who have been trained for half a year or even three years, the gap is extremely large.

Therefore, we need time to train our troops, and we also need other channels to obtain weapons besides those from the Japanese.

And we must also have sufficient strategic depth.

Take the Valley of Evil for example, it is a dead valley. If we had more enemies, they would have forced us into a dead end in just three days.

Therefore, we must find a way to break out before this, or jump out of the Evil Valley. Then find a place more suitable for guerrilla warfare and continue to fight the devils! "

Hearing this, Long Qianyan suddenly realized:

"Leader Ye, what you said is very good. I had never thought about it before. I just wanted to gather a team and fight the devils to the end. Even if I sacrificed myself, I would be worthy of my fellow countrymen and the land that gave birth to me and raised me.

But now it seems that I was a little short-sighted. We should not think about how to fight the devils. Instead, we should save ourselves while destroying the enemy, and then kill more devils! "
