Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 610 An Unexpected Surprise (First Update!)

"Hurry up, the protection captain retreats!" As soon as Noda Nakazuo gave the order, the adjutant shouted to the guard next to him.

A dozen devils, surrounded by Noda Nakazuo, quickly moved away from the area covered by artillery fire.

On the high ground occupied by the Xinyi regiment, the devils were several hundred meters away from him on the highway.However, the fireballs that exploded from the shells were like a huge torch, illuminating the battlefield as if it were daytime.

Even without binoculars, Wang Ping can have a panoramic view of the battlefield.

"The devils were confused by our bombing, and they seemed to want to run away. Each cannon fired ten rounds rapidly, and continued to fire!" Wang Ping ordered decisively.

Then he stared at Xiao Yunshan, who was commanding the troops to fight against the puppet army, and continued to give orders: "There is only one battalion of puppet troops left in front of us, Company Commander Xiao, counterattack when the time is right, and try to kill them!"

Under the firepower of a total of nine heavy machine guns, the puppet army of more than 300 people died less than half of the company and stopped attacking, lying on the ground like a turtle.

Watching the heavy machine gun shoot out the bullets like water, but there is no result.Xiao Yunshan can be said to be both aggrieved and angry.

Hearing Wang Ping's order to attack, he was so angry that he seemed to have found a breakthrough to vent his anger. Without a word of nonsense, he ordered directly.

"Give me the heavy machine gun to withstand the puppet army's machine gun, and the others will charge with me!"

"Machine gunners move forward, don't stop firing, kill the puppet army in front of us!"

The commander of the puppet army felt like crying at this time.

Originally, it was to show merit to his master that he volunteered to fight and attack the Xinyi Regiment.

But I didn't expect that the firepower of the new regiment was so powerful, stronger than that of its master, the Japanese.

As soon as the troops came up, the intertwined heavy machine gun bullets killed half of their company's troops like a massacre.Then Sheng Yilun's subordinates became afraid, no matter how he threatened them, they refused to continue to attack.

The head of the regiment was sure that Noda Nakazuo, who was supervising the battle, must have seen the picture of himself commanding his subordinates on the battlefield.

Just when the head of the regiment secretly vowed in his heart that he would clean up the puppet army under his command after returning, and even had to exchange blood for the officers in the regiment.An accident happened.

The Eighth Route Army, which I have always looked down upon, was even equipped with mortars. More importantly, these mortars passed directly past me and fired at Noda Nakazuo behind.

In less than half a minute of shelling, the head of the regiment saw that the devils who usually flaunt their might were also afraid of death.

He scattered and ran for his life like a bereaved dog, and then retreated directly, forgetting that he was fighting on the battlefield.

"Retreat, the Japanese are all gone, so why do we fight! Machine guns cover, and the others retreat with me!" The regiment leader is not a vegetarian, he can't do anything else, but his life-saving skills are first-rate.Immediately retreated under the protection of the guard company, without any hesitation.

"Regimental Commander, the troops have not been withdrawn!" After walking a few tens of meters, a company commander chased after him and reported anxiously.

"Why? Do they all want to die here?" The regiment leader frowned.

As soon as the battle started, I lost one company, and two companies defected and became prisoners of the Eighth Route Army.If the battalion in front of me is lost again, then I will become a bare commander. The regiment leader is sure that even if he returns alive, the regiment commander will be demoted to battalion commander by the Japanese.

"They said they were too tired and didn't want to run away. If they continue running for their lives, they might as well be captured by the Eighth Route Army!" the company commander replied in a low voice.

"Get out, they are betraying, I want to shoot them!" What the regiment leader worried about the most happened, he drew out his pistol, and subconsciously wanted to return to the battlefield and bring the troops back.

But before he stepped forward, another company commander rushed over with a look of horror.

"Tuan Zuo, the Eighth Route Army has counterattacked. They have a lot of machine guns, and they are rushing towards us. If we don't retreat, it will be too late!"

Compared with the troops, one's own life is obviously more important.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Retreat, follow the Japanese!"

As soon as the regiment leader retreated, the puppet troops left on the battlefield completely lost their scruples.

When the new regiment of counterattack troops was still a hundred meters away, they dropped their guns and assumed a posture of surrender.

"Regimental Commander, we won. We actually won!" Watching the Japanese and puppet troops throw away their helmets and armor and flee for their lives, more than 200 puppet troops became prisoners.Xiao Yunshan was stunned for a full minute before he could react from the shock, and then he exclaimed with surprise.

Wang Ping was also very surprised that a surprise battle could be fought like this.

Although it is not clear how many devils he has eliminated, an artillery squadron plus a heavy machine gun squadron is an ironclad fact.

Without heavy weapons, the devils had nothing but an advantage in strength in front of the Xinyi regiment.

I can see this myself, and Major General Matsumoto, the head of the Devils Brigade, can definitely see it too.

In order to prevent the encirclement and suppression troops from being killed by another squadron inexplicably, Matsumoto could only transfer troops from the blockade to strengthen the encirclement and suppression troops, and regain the lost advantages of the encirclement and suppression troops.

It can be said that the current battle not only overfulfilled the task, but also solved a large number of problems faced by the new regiment entering the mountain at one time.

But the smile on his face didn't last for too long, and Wang Ping regained his composure.

"There are still two hours before dawn, and there are at most three and a half hours before the devil's plane arrives. Company Commander Xiao, I will give you half an hour to clean up the battlefield and prepare for retreat. After half an hour, all of you will leave the battlefield by small road. Camp. No accidents, we will enter the mountain tonight!"

When it was dawn, the exhausted Noda Nakazuo returned to the stronghold that had been bombed into ruins.

He sat down on the chair prepared by his subordinates, gasped heavily, and rested for 5 minutes before his pale face slowly turned rosy.

After taking a deep breath, he stared at the adjutant and asked, "Have all the troops returned?"

"Two of the three squadron leaders came back, and the remaining one seemed to be killed by a shell!" The adjutant replied hesitantly.

"I'm asking about the troops, not the officers. If the officers are gone, I can still be promoted. If the troops are gone, we will become bare commanders, and the brigade commander will not let us go!" The squadron leader glared at the adjutant and asked back. .

The adjutant's face suddenly became ugly.

After hesitating for half a minute, he replied: "The troops have returned to the current position with a squadron, but there are still people rushing to the stronghold!"

"The Royal Association Army only has their commander and a small number of guards back!"

"In addition, more than a dozen artillerymen have returned, but all the equipment has been snatched by the Eighth Route Army!"

Noda Nakazuo's face turned pale again, and he stared at the adjutant with a look of despair and asked back.

"That is to say, when we pursued, there were three infantry squadrons, one artillery squadron, and one heavy machine gun squadron. There were nearly 200 imperial troops, and less than [-] people came back alive!"

"And such a result was actually caused by more than 100 remnants of the Xinyi Regiment!"

"Hi!" The adjutant replied with his head down, not daring to say a word.

After hearing this answer, Noda Nakazuo immediately closed his eyes with a face of pain, and then said two words: "It's over!"
