Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 509 Who Are They? (First update!)

The troops rushing to the mountain road went very smoothly at first, and soon divided nearly four hundred devils into five or six pieces, scattered in the ravine that stretched for nearly one kilometer.

However, when they launched the final attack on the dozens of devils in the encirclement, an accident happened.

Although there are only dozens of devils, they are equipped with a lot of automatic firepower.

"Brigade Commander, why do devils have so many automatic weapons? Dozens of people are equipped with seven or eight machine guns, or even a dozen machine guns!" Seeing the large amount of flames suddenly bursting out on the battlefield, the chief of staff was shocked and full of anger. cried with a disbelieving expression.

According to his understanding of the Japanese army, a standard Japanese infantry brigade is equipped with 27 light machine guns and eight to twelve heavy machine guns.

In the battle just now, not to mention too much, the two regiments killed at least half of the automatic firepower of the Japanese army.

On the battlefield, the devils should have only ten or twenty light and heavy machine guns left to continue fighting.

However, all the automatic firepower that suddenly appeared on the battlefield added up, and there were forty of them.

Under the frantic strafing of so many automatic weapons, the attacking troops suffered a large number of casualties without rushing into the devil's position.

"That's not a light and heavy machine gun, it's a submachine gun!" The brigade commander also frowned into a big Sichuan character, and then he didn't understand.

"What kind of devil is this? Why are they equipped with so many submachine guns? Isn't the devil short of resources, and field troops are not equipped with submachine guns? Who are they?"

Because the devil special forces appeared in the Taiyue area for the first time, and they fought with the main force.Until now, Brigadier Chen did not know of their existence.

In the preceding ten days of fighting, the fundamental reason why Brigadier Chen's troops and guerrillas suffered heavy losses in guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare was the existence of the devil's special forces.

They are not good at field combat, but they are very good at sneak attack, tracking, and mountain warfare.

Dealing with small groups of Eighth Route Army troops and local guerrillas is completely easy.

In the tense headquarters, no one could answer the brigade commander's question. Everyone was staring at the battlefield, hoping that the frontline troops could make a breakthrough.

At this moment, a group of people suddenly appeared on the edge of the battlefield.

There are not many troops, about fifty or sixty people.

He rushed to the battlefield with a gun in his hand, and went directly to the first encirclement circle.

Since they arrived, the automatic weapons equipped by the devils have become less aggressive, constantly misfiring.

In less than 2 minutes, the firepower of the light machine guns and submachine guns in the encirclement was weakened by more than half.And the remaining firepower is intermittent.

A battalion of troops around took the opportunity to rush up and strangle with the remaining remnants of the devils.

At this time, dozens of people appeared in Brigadier Chen's field of vision again.

Instead of attacking with the troops, they rushed to the next encirclement with their guns in hand.

From when they joined the battle to when the attacking troops began to attack, less than 3 minutes before and after, the automatic firepower in the hands of the devils was reduced by half.

"Who are they? Chief of staff, does our brigade have such troops? There are only a few dozen of them, and their combat effectiveness is so strong!" If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, Brigadier Chen could hardly believe his eyes, staring at the battlefield while talking to the chief of staff. asked.

The chief of staff was also shocked, and replied to himself: "Our brigade definitely doesn't have such troops!"

"Brigade Commander, their fighting power is too strong. Only a few dozen people have changed the stalemate on the battlefield. If they didn't join the battle suddenly and destroy the automatic firepower of the devils, our attacking troops would definitely not be so easy to rush up and strangle the devils together."

"It doesn't matter, we will know their identities when the battle is over!" The battlefield is changing rapidly, even if the squad plays a very important role, it is impossible for Brigadier Chen to keep an eye on them.

I saw that there were already two encircled devils on the battlefield and the attacking troops strangled together and fought with bayonets.

Brigadier Chen immediately ordered: "Notify the troops, end the battle as soon as possible, then quickly clean up the battlefield and retreat!"

"If we delay here for one more minute, the blocking troops will suffer one more casualties. The devils have a strong force and sufficient ammunition. We will definitely not be able to defeat them if we fight for consumption!"

In the next 10 minutes, the squad respectively suppressed the devils in the remaining three circles on the battlefield, and then, together with ordinary soldiers, strangled the devils directly.

At this time, Brigadier Chen was shocked again.

Dozens of soldiers, each with a Mauser pistol, called the devils who were battling bayonets.

On the battlefield, whenever they participated in hand-to-hand combat, many devils were killed by bullets flying from nowhere before they could react from the shock.

"These people are all equipped with two guns. Brigadier, one is long and the other is short. Does our Eighth Route Army have such a well-equipped unit?" Before Brigadier Chen could speak, the political commissar on the other side couldn't help but exclaim.

"Report!" At this moment, the voice of the company commander of the guard suddenly sounded at the entrance of the command department.

"Chief, there is a troop outside the headquarters. It is the first battalion of the headquarters security regiment. Their Battalion Commander Zhang is already outside. I want to see you!"

"It must be the reinforcements sent by the headquarters! Only the headquarters has such a large amount of money to build up the troops on the battlefield!" The chief of staff immediately reacted and shouted.

Brigadier Chen was also very curious, and immediately ordered: "Let him in!"

"Report to the chief, the battalion commander of the first battalion of the headquarters security regiment was ordered to report! We were ordered to escort a batch of weapons and ammunition, which are now hiding in a valley two kilometers away from the battlefield. In addition, the headquarters ordered the first battalion not to return to construction, it is up to everyone The chief is in command!"

"The reinforcements from the headquarters came too timely. Battalion Commander Zhang, the battle is not over yet. You will report the specific situation after the battle is over. Let me ask you, are you bringing the dozens of comrades who suddenly joined the battle just now!" Happy Brigadier Chen didn't forget his business, staring at Battalion Commander Zhang and asked.

"Report to the chief, I brought them here, but they don't belong to the headquarters security regiment!" Battalion Commander Zhang responded immediately.

"They are a special forces team secretly established by the headquarters, with only more than 50 troops. As soon as they arrived at the edge of the battlefield, Captain Zhang discovered that among the devils you were ambushing, there were newly formed special forces from the Japanese army."

"Because the special forces are very powerful, if ordinary troops are not familiar with them, they will definitely suffer a lot and even be defeated!"

"Captain Wang saw that the attacking troops and the devils had been at a stalemate, so he joined the battle without orders!"

Speaking of which, Battalion Commander Zhang, who mistakenly thought that the Special Forces had caused trouble, hurriedly asked: "Chief, did the Special Forces suddenly join the battle and disrupt your battle plan!"

Brigadier Chen quickly shook his head and replied: "No, not only did they not cause trouble, but they also helped us a lot. After the battle is over, I will definitely ask the headquarters to give them credit!"

At this time, the chief of staff suddenly patted himself on the head: "Brigade Commander, I understand!"

"The headquarters informed us about the special forces. On the battlefield, especially at night, the combat effectiveness of a special operations team of the devils is equivalent to that of our battalion. Participated in. No wonder our guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare seem to have lost their effect in this anti-encirclement and suppression battle. It turns out that all this is caused by the devil special forces!"
