Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1039 Don't scare the devil away (second update!)

"Casualties are not large!" The combat staff officer replied.

Commander Yongsheng was very surprised and asked back: "How is it possible, the sound of guns and shells outside the garrison is so dense, how can it be possible that the casualties are not large!"

"I didn't believe it at first, but after I asked, I found out that the Eighth Route Army had no plans to fight us decisively. Every time, it would retreat with one blow, causing us casualties of one squad at most!" The combat staff quickly explained.

"According to the current loss rate, we can kill all the mortars active around us if we lose one infantry squadron!"

"The Eighth Route Army's equipment is poor, so there must not be many mortars. I'm sure, as long as we kill more than a dozen mortars around us, the Eighth Route Army will have no artillery that can threaten us!"

The worry on Chief Yongsheng's face completely disappeared.

He thought of the artillery group in the garrison that could provide artillery support to the attacking troops at any time. As long as there was an artillery group, even if it was dark now, the Eighth Route Army would not dare to fight the attacking troops under their noses.

Since several mortars of the Eighth Route Army could be destroyed at such a fast speed, and the casualties were not large, Colonel Yongsheng's last worry disappeared immediately.

He decisively ordered: "Another reinforcement squadron will be dispatched, and one battalion of the Imperial Association Army will go out... The three troops will cooperate with each other to destroy the artillery units of the Eighth Route Army around us as soon as possible, so that we can have a good rest tonight!"

To the east of the Japanese and puppet army's garrison, the second regiment's attack direction.

Because the Second Regiment had lost too much in the battle two days ago and had to recruit a large number of recruits, Wang Ping stayed in the Second Regiment directly to prevent any accidents!
The three mortars that were destroyed and seized by the devils just now were the ones that Wang Ping asked the Second Regiment to give up.

Although the head of the Second Regiment and the political commissar carried out the order readily and didn't say much, they could still see the distressed expression on their faces even if they didn't mention Wang Ping.

"Commander Zhou, are you still feeling sorry for those three mortars?" Wang Ping asked.

"It's impossible to say that it doesn't hurt!" Captain Zhou replied directly.

"You don't know, before you came to the Suide Military Region, although our Second Regiment was the main force of the military region, it only had three mortars and four heavy machine guns, and the shells were even more pitiful. In the hands of me and the political commissar, without the order of me and the political commissar, even if the king of heaven comes, I can't use it!"

"So, Pao is a baby to us, a baby who is closer than our own children."

"It's impossible to say that it doesn't hurt to lose three mortars at once, and lose it by yourself."

"Although the equipment in the regiment is much better now, there are still very few heavy weapons such as mortars. There are only nine. One-third of the mortars have been removed at once. It must be heartbreaking!"

Wang Ping nodded and replied: "I can't bear to let the child not be tied to the wolf~ Captain Zhou, don't worry, I will get back the three mortars you just lost in a maximum of two days!"

"Deputy Chief of Staff...Regimental Commander, there is a situation..." Just as Wang Ping was about to continue, a platoon leader approached him and reported excitedly and nervously.

"Devils, the Japanese and puppet troops in the garrison have dispatched again. There are still more than 200 devils and more than 300 puppet troops, with mortars and heavy machine guns!"

"See, you lost three mortars in exchange for a reinforced squadron of devils!" Wang Ping replied happily.

"As long as you can kill this reinforced squadron, not only can you get back the three mortars you lost, but you can also seize a lot of other equipment!

"Commander Zhou, this Japanese and puppet army is directly attacking us, let the troops get ready for battle, and start to focus on sneak attacks, but don't fight too hard, scare the devils away, and wait until this Japanese and puppet army is killed. The fat ones have turned into thin ones, we are seizing the opportunity to kill them!"

A company should retreat within 2 minutes of raid at most. This is Wang Ping's order to the three main regiments.

In fact, each company withdrew after fighting for less than 1 minute.

The Japanese and puppet troops are not fools, they will fight back after being attacked.If you shoot head-on, an infantry company is definitely not an opponent.

Therefore, on the battlefield, the infantry companies that raided the Japanese and puppet troops would immediately retreat as soon as they were counterattacked, fearing that they would be stuck by the Japanese and puppet troops with absolute superiority in strength.

But even so, each infantry company still caused 20 casualties to the Japanese and puppet troops.

Three light machine guns, one heavy machine gun, and more than 100 rifles were fired together, and they were fired when the devils were caught off guard.

In the tent where the wing headquarters was located, the good mood on Colonel Yongsheng's face only lasted for less than two hours before slowly dissipating.

Two hours passed, and the continuous sound of gunfire around the station not only did not mean to stop, but intensified.

More importantly, in the garrison, the number of shells constantly falling has not decreased.

"Not good~ we might have been fooled!" The frowning Colonel Yongsheng suddenly realized.

"The Eighth Route Army is giving us a little advantage first, let us send more troops to leave the station, and then use their guerrilla and mobile warfare that they are good at to consume us bit by bit. Although we don't lose many troops in each battle, we can use it to Adding up all those losses, the amount is absolutely astonishing!"

"Quickly, contact the three squadron leaders and ask them to withdraw!"

"After fighting for so long, we didn't kill the artillerymen of the Eighth Route Army that were active around us. Instead, we lost troops and generals. The gain outweighed the loss~"

Before the adjutant stepped out of the tent, a combat staff officer rushed in and collided with him.

It must be very painful, but the combat staff officer got up from the ground and reported with a frown.

"Sir, we were fooled... The first squadron reported that they were attacked by three heavy machine guns and nearly ten light machine guns from the Eighth Route Army just now... In just one battle, the troops lost more than 30 imperial troops~"

"The loss of troops is too great. After two hours, there are less than 100 imperial troops who can still fight. They request to end the operation and return to the station immediately!"

"Agreed, let them retreat now, come back immediately!" Captain Yongsheng shouted anxiously.

"Da da da... bang bang bang..."

Not long after, a burst of more intensive gunshots reached the ears of Commander Yongsheng, which was mixed with a lot of explosions!

It's all right?What worried the captain the most was that this round of gunfire lasted for a full minute and a half before it ended...

"Not good... It must be that one of the attacking troops was ambushed by the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and even the mortars were used!" Senior Commander Yongsheng's face became more and more ugly, and he judged with a frown.

After waiting for almost 10 minutes, the combat staff officer who had just left finally came back.

"Sir, the No. 90 Squadron has returned...but the casualties of the troops are very heavy. The Imperial Army only returned more than 100 people, and the Imperial Association Army returned more than [-] people, with more than half of the casualties!"

"The Second Squadron is also back, a little bit better, but more than half of the troops have suffered casualties..."

"The third squadron is back too...just~"

"what is this?"

Commander Yongsheng stared at the combat staff officer, not daring to blink...

"The troops were almost completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army... They were ambushed by the Eighth Route Army at the last moment, only more than 30 imperial troops broke out, and none of the Imperial Association Army came back~"

"Also, many of the heavy weapons brought out by the three squadrons were brought back. The first squadron lost two heavy machine guns and two mortars... The second squadron lost two heavy machine guns and one mortar. Throw away all the heavy weapons brought out by the third squadron!"

"It really is a conspiracy!" Chief Yongsheng said to himself with a sullen face, then sat down on the stool and stopped talking!
