Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 67: Attacking the Stronghold
The fighting literacy of the puppet army is too low. Although they all endured sleepiness and went on guard duty, they still did not find the soldiers of the independent battalion who were approaching.

"Bang..." A piercing gunshot suddenly broke the tranquility of Wuzhen.

At this moment, the Wuzhen stronghold also became lively.

The puppet sentinels in charge of guarding around the stronghold became sober in an instant, and then held their rifles and stared at their surroundings.

"Da da da..." Two companies plus the guard platoon equipped with nine crooked handles and one Type [-] shot at the same time.

Several puppet soldiers poked their heads and looked out, and were beaten into a hornet's nest before they could react.

The remaining puppet soldiers who were still alive were frightened, hiding behind the position, listening to the whizzing sound of bullets flying past above their heads, their hands holding the rifle couldn't help shaking, let alone counterattack!
But the ghost soldiers in the stronghold were not afraid. Hearing such dense gunshots, they subconsciously thought of the enemy attacking, and then rushed out of the barracks with rifles and disheveled clothes. .

"Bageya Road, there are enemies attacking us outside, quickly enter the position and prepare to defend!"

But at this moment, mortar shells in groups of three and grenades in groups of six, like urging charms, smashed towards their stronghold with a screaming sound.

Amidst the violent explosion, many Japanese and puppet soldiers were directly blown to the ground. Those who were less lucky were directly torn into parts by shells, and not even a complete body was left behind.

Under the cover of mortars and grenades, more than 80 little devils, only more than 40 rushed to the position in the end, and then shot out with a crane gun, crooked handle, and even [-] big covers.

As for the remaining devils, they either fell into corpses in the yard of the stronghold, or were seriously wounded by the bombing, lying in the yard and screaming continuously.

As for the puppet army, under the fierce artillery fire, they all retreated to the barracks as soon as they lost more than a dozen people. No matter how the Japanese army gave orders, they just didn't come out.

Especially the officers of the puppet army, one of the big reasons why they gave their lives to the little devils was that they were afraid of death, and then they surrendered to the Japanese army and gave their lives to the Japanese army.

Now that the artillery fire outside is so fierce, after rushing out, it is very likely that a single shell will kill him.In this case, even if they were loyal to the devils, they would not dare to risk their lives.

After more than 40 devils rushed into the position and began to counterattack, the sudden intensive firepower caused a lot of casualties to the independent battalion.However, after all, they only have three crooked handles and one heavy machine gun.Even this little automatic fire, and a crooked handle fell in the yard behind them in the shelling.

As for the independent battalion that flanked them back and forth, there was a whole heavy machine gun and nine crooked handles. On average, three machine guns stared at the devils with one machine gun and fired at each other.

In the stronghold, the devils had three machine gun fire points, and within five seconds of being arrogant, they all misfired.

Being stared at by so many machine guns at once, no matter how rich the combat experience of the Devil's machine gunner, if he avoided the offensive firepower from the east, he would not be able to avoid the offensive firepower from the front or even the west.

Although the Japanese army quickly replaced a new machine gunner, the misfiring machine gun screamed again.

However, the machine gunner was beaten into a hornet's nest again within five seconds.

When the firepower of the machine gun completely suppressed the devil's light and heavy machine guns, Wang Ping resolutely separated a few crooked guns and suppressed and fired at the Japanese riflemen.

At the same time, order the six grenadiers of the two grenadier squads to stare at the devil's position and launch grenades.

As for the mortars, keep an eye on the grenades that the devils may emerge from.

Under the attack of the absolute offensive firepower of the Independent Battalion, the Japanese army continued to reduce its personnel, especially the machine gun positions that were under special care. Four or five devil corpses were dumped next to each machine gun. The gun shot for a few seconds, followed by being killed.

After the two sides shot at each other for nearly 1 minute, more than 40 devils had lost most of them.

Under the command of the squad leader, the remaining ten devils all retreated to the barracks, preparing to use the barracks for the final defense.

Of course, it's not that the team leader didn't think about asking for help from the county seat, but no matter how he dialed the only phone in the county seat, he still couldn't get through.

The team leader was not a rookie on the battlefield, so he immediately understood that the telephone line was cut off by the Eighth Route Army outside.Of course, this also means that the Eighth Route Army must have made up its mind to capture its stronghold and wipe itself out.

With no reinforcements outside and he suffered heavy losses, the squad leader knew very well that no matter how capable he was, he would be powerless.

Although some subordinates proposed to organize the nearby puppet army to cooperate in the battle, but after thinking about the performance of the puppet army just now, the team leader resolutely rejected this proposal.

The puppet army who is greedy for life and fear of death has arrived here. Facing the attack of the Eighth Route Army, not only can they not help themselves, but they will also affect the morale of the army and disturb the remaining warriors to fight.

What's more, after knowing that the imperial army can't stop the attack of the Eighth Route Army, it is possible to stab yourself in the back anyway.

In order to inflict maximum damage to the Eighth Route Army with the remaining troops on hand, the team leader finally decided to defend the barracks where everyone is hiding now alone.

As soon as the devils retreated, the independent battalion pressed up, and then directly rushed into the barracks!
"Da da da!" The only crooked gun in the Japanese army's hand broke the gun, and the three or four soldiers who had just rushed into the stronghold were caught off guard and were directly beaten into a hornet's nest and fell to the gate of the stronghold!

"Battalion Commander, the devils have hid in the barracks. It looks like they are going to defend to the death!" Second Company Commander Zhang Yunshan reported as soon as Wang Ping rushed over.

"The yard of the stronghold is empty, and there must be a lot of casualties in the hard attack. Bring the artillery platoon over, bombard them, and bury them all in the barracks!" Wang Ping frowned, and ordered decisively.

Soon, the screaming sound of shells passing through the sky reached the ears of the devil squad leader.

The team leader's face turned pale in an instant, and he shouted loudly: "Baga, it's a mortar. I forgot that the Eighth Route Army still has artillery. The barracks can't withstand the mortar bombardment at all!"

Then he drew out his command saber and shouted at the remaining subordinates around him: "Warriors, the time has come to sacrifice your life for the empire, rush out and fight the Eighth Route Army, kill one by one, kill it!"
