Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 64 Killing the Scout

"How could it be? Unless the little devil commander in Laiyuan City is a fool, he must dispatch at least one infantry brigade to retaliate against us. If we can easily eat one of his squadrons, then we will be able to eat two of his squadrons. An infantry brigade is the safest thing for them!" As a former commander, Cheng Xiao was also very sure of his judgment.

Wang Ping pointed to the map and explained: "I don't deny your judgment, Lao Cheng. What I mean is, even if the devil wants to dispatch an infantry brigade, Laiyuan City doesn't have so many troops for him to dispatch!"

"Look at the map. It was captured in the Japanese squad leader's office. There should be no problem with the accuracy!"

"The map shows that the devils have stationed no less than three squadrons of devils and one battalion of puppet troops in the villages and towns and traffic arteries around Laiyuan City. There is only one infantry regiment that was disabled in Laiyuan, and two Thousands of people. Excluding the dispatched troops, the devils in Laiyuan City only have an infantry brigade plus some directly subordinate troops."

"Now that we have eaten up an infantry squadron, there will be fewer devils in Laiyuan City. There are not so many troops to send out!"

"Really!" Cheng Xiao, who stared at the map for nearly a minute, replied with a face of enlightenment.

Then he asked Wang Ping: "The battalion commander, what is your idea!"

Wang Ping didn't answer, but instead asked thoughtfully: "Old Cheng, if you were the devil commander in Laiyuan City, what would you do now!"

"Let's find a way to figure out our strength first. If we can take out one of his squadrons, then we may take out two of his squadrons, or even a large group. If we don't know our strength, we will never send troops!" Cheng Xiao looked worried. Thinking about expressing his own thoughts.

Wang Ping nodded and said in affirmation: "Then we will find a way to make the devils in Laiyuan City not understand our strength, so they dare not send troops casually, and buy as much time as possible for us to recruit and train troops!"

After a pair of eyes quickly shot out two rays of light, they shouted at the entrance of the battalion!

"Notify the deputy battalion commander to come, hurry up!"

Although Shuiquan Village is [-] to [-] miles away from Laiyuan City, because the independent battalion used mortars and built a powerful landmine, the roaring explosion still vaguely reached the ears of the Japanese soldiers in Laiyuan City.

At the beginning, Captain Ono was very worried, subconsciously thinking that something happened to the reinforcements.

Just when he was about to send a reconnaissance force out of the city to check, the faint explosion lasted only a few minutes before stopping.

An elite imperial army with a full infantry squadron could face a main regiment of the Central Army on the frontal battlefield. It is absolutely impossible to be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army with backward equipment in such a short period of time. Ono Dazuo is very sure of this judgment.

So, as soon as the gunfire stopped, he overturned his original idea: something happened to the reinforcements!

Since it wasn't an accident with the reinforcements, the explosion just now must have been caused by the exchange of fire between the reinforcements and Tuba Road.Judging from the time, the reinforcements should also arrive at Shuiquan Village at some point.

With this idea in mind, Ono immediately retracted his previous order and asked the reconnaissance troops who were about to leave the city to withdraw to the barracks to rest and stand by.On the other hand, he stayed at the headquarters, waiting for the reinforcements to send him good news.

Half an hour later, the good news I was looking forward to did not appear.

An hour later, the good news still did not appear.Not only that, but the telephone connection between the county seat and Shuiquan Village is still cut off.

Logically speaking, after the army defeated the Eighth Route Army, even if it was too far away to send the victory report back, it would quickly repair the telephone line and report the victory to itself by phone. However, the telephone line was interrupted from beginning to end.

At this time, Colonel Ono was already a little worried, but he still didn't believe that his elite infantry squadron would be wiped out in just a few minutes.

With this in mind, Colonel Ono waited for another hour, but there was still no sign of the imaginable good news.

At this time, Ono finally couldn't bear it anymore, and directly ordered the investigation squadron to send a team out of the city by motorcycle to find out what happened in Shuiquan Village.

Three motorcycles and nine devil scouts drove out of Laiyuan City in just a few minutes.

"This must be a little devil scouting the troops and going out of the city to find out the situation! The battalion commander just sent an order. For this kind of devil, don't let him go back after he comes out."

"The three of you continue to monitor the city gate here, and report immediately if there is any situation. The others will take a shortcut with me and rush to the front of the devils and eat them!"

Three three-wheeled motorcycles, carrying nine ghosts, were a bit crooked, because they had just left Laiyuan City, and they were not too cautious, and rushed to Shuiquan Village as fast as they could.

Less than 5 minutes after they left the city gate, a ditch on the side of the road where few people could hide, suddenly threw seven or eight grenades with white smoke.

Caught off guard, the devil subconsciously wanted to avoid these grenades.

However, these grenades are time-delayed.A motorcycle was walking in the front, just about to make a sharp turn, when a series of explosions sounded above their heads.

Seven or eight grenades exploded together, and more than 100 pieces of fragments were produced in an instant, covering them directly, and then blasting them into a hornet's nest.

The two motorcycles following behind reacted quickly, and came to a sudden brake to stop.

The six devils jumped out of the car before it stopped.The rifle that was still on his back was already in his hand at some point.

Just as they pulled the bolt of the gun, loaded the bullet, and rushed to the side of the road, preparing to counterattack covertly.

Two crooked guns that were just concealed in front of them fired.

"Da da da..." The dense bullets took the lives of four devils in one fell swoop.

The remaining two devils deserved to be the most elite scouts of the Japanese army. They lay on the ground as soon as the gunshot rang out, and then fired at the position of the machine gun.

"Crack!" After two gunshots, a crooked gun that was screaming happily misfired, and the machine gunner was shot in the head and fell to the ground.

Of course, these two devils only had one chance to shoot.

So many plus two crooked hands to deal with nine devils and casualties, this is a shame in Zhong Yusheng's view.

He personally manipulated a crooked handle, immediately turned the gun, and pulled the trigger at them.

It didn't stop until all the bullets in the barrel were shot.

At this time, each of the two devils was hit by several bullets and turned into a hornet's nest!
