The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1313: Close the door and beat the dog? (First update)

Although the second company was temporarily out of crisis, the little Japanese who surrounded them from other places did not end the battle.

They adhered to the principle of attacking wherever there was gunfire, quickly approached the battlefield and attacked the second company from all directions.

When the commander of the second company and his troops managed to escape from the pursuit, a full infantry company had already suffered more than half of its casualties.

Duan Peng was furious on the spot. He clenched his fists, his face turned red, and asked sternly: "The Kwantung Army is worthy of being the elite among the elite little devils. Not only is it powerful in combat, it is also very capable of learning..."

"We have found a way to deal with our guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare so quickly."

"Since they want to fight us desperately, let's fight hard and let them see what real guerrilla warfare is."

"Correspondent, contact companies one, three, and two immediately, almost give up the original battle, and the troops will immediately gather at Xipanling. I want to have a good fight with the Kwantung Army there..."

…………

The commander of the Kwantung Army deployed four infantry squadrons at one time to outflank the Eighth Route Army's surprise attack force, which directly accounted for more than half of the total force under his command.

If an accident occurs to them, the entire regiment will lose its combat effectiveness and may even be wiped out on the battlefield by the Eighth Route Army.

Seeing the troops quickly disappearing into the woods in front of him, he was more nervous than anyone else.

"Sir, we won, the outflanking troops won..."

An exclamation from the woods made the captain immediately relax his tense heartstrings.

Looking at the messenger running towards him in a hurry, he asked anxiously: "What is the specific situation..."

"How many Eighth Route Army troops were killed by the outflanking troops? How many casualties did they suffer?"

"We killed at least fifty Eighth Route Army soldiers..." The ordering soldier reported excitedly as if he had won a great victory.

"There were about a hundred casualties, mainly from the two squadrons outflanking the inner circle..."

"The Eighth Route Army has been on guard against them for a long time, killing and wounding many of their soldiers through sneak attacks..."

"After the two outflanking squadrons were in place, the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack troops suddenly panicked and began to run away desperately..."

"In order to avoid being deceived, we retreated and fought after chasing for three kilometers..."

The chief of staff was the first to laugh out loud, because it was he who suggested the strategy of sending troops to outflank the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack troops. He immediately complimented the commander: "Sir, our method works..."

"The troops took the initiative to outflank the Eighth Route Army and sneak attack troops, although their own casualties were twice that of the Eighth Route Army."

"But it's better than being passively beaten all the time."

"Furthermore, the total number of Eighth Route Army troops operating around us is only a few hundred. Even if two Kwantung Army units are replaced by one Eighth Route Army unit, we can still kill them through exhaustion..."

The co-captain couldn't accept this ending in his heart.

As the captain of the Kwantung Army, he is very arrogant at heart.

As a result, a war of attrition was used to deal with an Eighth Route Army of several hundred people. If word of this got out, he would definitely become a laughing stock among all the Kwantung Army commanders.

But no matter what, it is better to destroy the Eighth Route Army than to be passively beaten under their sneak attacks.

The captain took a deep breath, quickly forced himself to calm down, and then ordered: "Since we are sure that this method of attack will work..."

"If during the next retreat, the Eighth Route Army still rushes to send troops to attack us, the outflanking troops will set off immediately without waiting for my order."

…………

Perhaps it was because the Eighth Route Army was really frightened by the Kwantung Army's counterattack just now. The troops suffered too many casualties and did not dare to continue launching sneak attacks.

More than a thousand remnants of the Kwantung Army walked for two hours without being attacked again, and even the most common cold shots disappeared.

The Kwantung Army's first reaction was that they could finally march properly. "Boom, boom, boom..."

The sound of heavy machine gun fire and the explosion of artillery shells from the flank of the team instantly shattered their dreams.

The Kwantung Army soldiers who were attacked were like ripe wheat, falling piece by piece in a pool of blood. In the blink of an eye, thirty or forty people were injured or killed.

"Kill me..."

A series of orders immediately sounded in the fast-moving ranks of the Kwantung Army. Four squadrons of six to seven hundred Kwantung Army members simultaneously held the rifles on their backs flat in their hands, broke away from the ranks, and followed their respective squadron leaders and squad leaders to quickly shoot towards the woods where the shots were fired. Outflank the past.

The Wing Commander was very satisfied with the quick response of his men.

In the last round of counterattack, the troops only started to counterattack after receiving his order.

On a battlefield where time is of the essence, if the counterattack troops arrive at the battlefield earlier, the Eighth Route Army that attacks them will have less chance of survival.

Based on this analysis, the results achieved by the troops in the current counterattack will definitely be much higher than the previous round of counterattack.

Just as the captain was waiting for the good news with great expectation.

The spy battalion has prepared a dragnet for the Kwantung Army in the woods, waiting for them to hit their guns.

Captain Springfield of the Kwantung Army is the squadron leader of the peripheral outflanking force. At this moment, he is leading more than a hundred soldiers under his command to form a skirmish line to outflank the exchange point.

Prepare to form a huge encirclement around the battlefield, then slowly shrink the encirclement, and have a showdown with the Eighth Route Army trapped in the encirclement.

The troops had just penetrated less than 200 meters into the forest when the sound of firefights coming from the battlefield became chaotic and were moving away from the main force.

Captain Springfield knew that this was the inner circle outflanking force that had already engaged with the Eighth Route Army's surprise attack force.

While consuming the strength of the Eighth Route Army, it also delayed the retreat of the Eighth Route Army, creating conditions for the inner circle of outflanking troops to complete the encirclement.

My heart tightened, and I immediately ordered the subordinates behind me: "Yoshi..."

"The Eighth Route Army can't escape..."

"Speed ​​up the speed, block the Eighth Route Army's retreat in the shortest possible time, then narrow the encirclement and engage in a decisive battle with the enemy..."

As he mouthed the order, Captain Haruta's steps became faster and faster.

More than a hundred Kwantung Army soldiers under his command sped up at the same time, and everyone was looking forward to the next battle.

In the last round of counterattack, they were also responsible for the peripheral outflanking.

Because the attack was too late, the outer encirclement was not completed at the last moment. Although dozens of Eighth Route Army troops were killed, many people still broke through under their noses.

This time their counterattack was very swift and they would definitely be able to complete the encirclement before the Eighth Route Army could escape.

Then what everyone needs to do next is to close the door and beat the dogs, and eliminate all the Eighth Route Army who sneak attack on the main force.

Soon the Kwantung Army penetrated more than 500 meters into the dense forest.

Judging from the sound of gunfire, they had already outflanked the Eighth Route Army's surprise attack force.

As long as it merges with another infantry squadron participating in the outflank and forms an encirclement, the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack troops will have no chance of escaping.

Little did they know that countless pairs of eyes were staring at them, and countless black holes were pointing at them.

Just waiting for the opportunity to spray a hail of deadly bullets at them.
