Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 5 Another Annihilation

After all, he has experience with machine guns. In less than 10 minutes, Zhong Yusheng was already proficient in controlling crooked light machine guns.

After finding a spirited soldier from among the recruits to serve as Zhong Yusheng's deputy, he even specially approved [-] rounds of ammunition for Zhong Yusheng to go to the back to experience for himself what it feels like to shoot a machine gun with a crooked handle.

After explaining all the problems clearly, Wang Ping was about to go to see how proficient the recruits were with the Type [-] rifle.

Zeng Quan touched it with a serious face.

"Consultant Wang, the gunfire from the direction of the guard company has stopped. Do you think the guard company has repelled the Japanese attack, or has an accident happened to the guard company!"

Wang Ping listened carefully, and it was true.The gunshots that were more and more sparse just now are completely gone now.

Zeng Quan followed suit and said, "Just now I heard a string of grenades exploding. Once the explosion was over, the gunfire ceased."

Wang Ping's face turned serious, and he immediately ordered: "Order comrades to prepare for battle. The guard company may have encountered an accident. According to the order, we have to hold here for 10 minutes before we can retreat."

Zeng Quan's expression was solemn, and he immediately ordered his subordinates to get ready for battle, then stared at Wang Ping and gave himself an explanation.

"The guards are not even equipped with a machine gun, and they don't have much ammunition, otherwise the gunshots would not be more and more sparse. The grenade explosion just now must be because the guards ran out of ammunition and food, so they had no choice but to use grenades to kill the devil cavalry."

"If there are still people in the guard company alive, the battlefield will definitely not be so peaceful."

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the sound of cavalry charging horseshoes reached Wang Ping's ears.

To Wang Ping's long sigh of relief, the entire guard company was wiped out and the Japanese cavalry also suffered five or sixty casualties.

Excluding the 28 devils who died in his own hands, there were only fifteen devils who finally appeared in Wang Ping's field of vision. They were led by a squadron leader and killed them in a mighty manner.

Wang Ping, who couldn't bear a long sigh of relief, immediately ordered: "Platoon Leader Zeng, let comrades prepare for battle. As long as the little devils dare to attack us, we will continue to deal with them in the same way as before."

Because a pair of binoculars of the Japanese squad leader was seized, Wang Ping could clearly see the Japanese soldiers rushing hundreds of meters away.

Seeing dozens of corpses scattered on the official road, a dozen devil cavalrymen were frightened immediately.

The squadron leader, who was also frightened, quickly raised his binoculars and began to look around.Soon, Shanliang was followed by him.

A dozen cavalrymen quickly dismounted under the order of the squadron leader, and charged towards the mountain ridge with rifles and light machine guns in hand.

"Everyone pay attention to concealment, prepare the grenade of the little devils, and greet them with the grenade."

"Platoon leader Zeng, I'll leave it to you to be the Jap machine gunner. As soon as your gunshots sound, the whole platoon will throw grenades down the mountain ridge. Don't forget that the grenade should stay in your hand for three seconds before throwing it out."

"Squad Leader Zhong, the machine gun in your hand is also participating in the battle. As soon as Platoon Leader Zeng's gunfires, you shoot at the devil's rifleman and expel all the bullets in the magazine."

Although Wang Ping gave the order in a very low voice, the Japanese soldiers who had rushed a hundred meters away were still aware of their presence.

The light machine gun that provided fire cover fired at his position, and the swishing bullets kept flying back against his head.

More than a dozen devil riflemen kept firing their guns, and as long as they suspected places on the mountain ridge, they would immediately attract several bullets.

Seeing the continuous gunshots from his side, but there was no gunshot from Liangding, the tense Japanese soldiers couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

At this time, they had rushed to the bottom of the beam.

According to infantry drills and combat experience, at this time they should rush to the top of the beam with their fastest speed, without giving the defenders time to react, and then use bayonets to destroy the defenders on the top of the beam.

But just as they were about to speed up, a crisp gunshot rang out.

Although the dozen or so Japanese soldiers were taken aback, they did not stop their hands and feet, preparing to rush to the top of the beam with their fastest speed.

In their view, the defenders knew it was too late to counterattack at this time.

With a charging distance of tens of meters, it can be charged in less than ten seconds. In such a short time, the defenders can shoot at most two rounds of bullets.More than a dozen Japanese soldiers were confident that they could withstand two rounds of counterattacks from the defenders and rushed to the top of the beam.

Besides, the light machine guns that provide fire cover behind them are not vegetarians. As long as the defenders dare to show their heads to fight back, they will be hit by light machine guns frantically.

The Japanese soldiers who were only thinking about rushing to the top of the beam forgot that at the moment the gunfire sounded, the light machine guns behind them went silent.

Not to mention, there was a series of machine gun fire that they were very familiar with from the top of the beam, which was close at hand.

The first two devils fell in response and were beaten into a hornet's nest.The remaining Japanese soldiers who knew the power of the machine gun subconsciously lay down on the ground and took up their rifles to fight back.

There was a gunshot, and a dozen bullets flew towards Zhong Yusheng as if they had eyes.

If it wasn't for Zhong Yusheng's quick reaction and subconsciously lowering his body, the bullets whizzing past his head could directly turn him into a hornet's nest.

Although he dodged the most deadly bullets, one bullet finally hit Zhong Yusheng in the arm.

The machine gun misfired, and the only firepower that could suppress the Japanese army was gone.

When the Japanese army prepared to continue charging forward with excited expressions, more than a dozen grenades finally flew out of the top of the beam after a delay.

"Baga, it's a grenade, everyone, cover up!" The squadron leader shouted with shock on his face.

When the remaining Japanese soldiers fell to the ground one after another, the grenade exploded.

At least half of the twenty grenades exploded in the air, and the scattered fragments quickly interweaved a dead zone in the air with no dead ends.

In this case, even if not all of the remaining twelve devils were killed by the bombing, there were not many left.

Wang Ping immediately ordered excitedly: "Okay, well blown up! Everyone bayoneted and charged down, and wiped out the devils before they could react. Don't forget to give the devils a second shot."

More than a dozen invincible devils were blown up in this way, and the twenty or so subordinates were also full of excitement.

As soon as Wang Ping gave an order, they rushed down with their rifles in their hands, screaming, and many of them were so happy that they even forgot to use their bayonets.

More than a dozen grenades exploded in the air, and the twelve devils were more or less hit by fragments.

Although several of them were not killed on the spot, the more than 20 Eighth Route Army soldiers who rushed down learned the lesson just now, and stabbed them with bayonets regardless of the three sevens and twenty ones.

When the gunpowder smoke that filled the battlefield cleared, all twelve devils were stabbed to death, and some were even stabbed four or five times in a row.

This time without Wang Ping's order, the platoon leader Zeng Quan began to arrange people to clean up the battlefield.

"Consultant Wang, we have made a fortune again. We wiped out fifteen little devils with zero casualties, captured one crooked gun, two pistols, fourteen rifles, more than two hundred rounds of 1000 bullets, and fifteen sets of cavalry equipment. Now there is less than half an hour before the time the commander asked us to block, how to fight in the future, please give the order to Staff Wang." Zeng Quan, who was convinced by Wang Ping, asked excitedly.

"Take the captured ones and prepare to retreat?" Wang Ping ordered after thinking about it.

At this moment, the corpses of the horses that were killed suddenly came into Wang Ping's field of vision, and he continued to order: "Take off all the legs of the horses that were killed, and use the horses to carry them back to eat meat. I don't know when this siege will end." , nearly two thousand catties of horse meat, more filling than grain, can save lives at critical moments."

Having experienced the Long March, he is very aware of the importance of food to the army.As soon as Wang Ping issued the order, he began to arrange people, and he gave Wang Ping, who looked like a scholar, another high-level look.
