Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 76 Willing to go alone

No matter how fast the devils escaped, it could not be faster than the speed of shells and grenades falling down.

In the end, only a dozen devils escaped from a squadron.

Still in shock, they were deeply afraid that there were other traps of the Eighth Route Army here, so they didn't stop at all, and continued to run for their lives, rushing directly in the direction where the main force was coming.

At this time, a total of thirty grenades and thirty grenades had all exploded.

Most of the more than 160 devils who stayed in the stronghold were killed, and many others were blown to pieces, not even a complete body remained.

However, in the small stronghold, many devils still survived.

Some hid in the ruins safe and sound, and some were bombed into wounded, fell to the ground and let out bursts of painful screams.

Wang Ping, who was hiding behind the stronghold, didn't care about these things. The main force of the devils was only one kilometer away from the forward squadron, and they could arrive there in 5 minutes by rushing. It means that he must end the battle in the next 1 minutes.

So, as soon as the explosion stopped, he ordered loudly: "Comrades, follow me and kill the devils according to the method I just said."

Because a large number of Mauser pistols equipped by the puppet army were seized in the front, Wang Ping directly held a gun in each hand, and rushed into the stronghold with guns in both hands as soon as the order was issued, and then ignored the bloody devil corpses under his feet, and pointed at the moving devils in front. shot.

A dozen or so devils hiding in the ruins reacted quickly, and they raised their rifles and prepared to fight back.

But the three sharpshooters that Wang Ping stayed with were not vegetarians. They did not charge along with them, but lay on a commanding height next to the stronghold, holding their rifles and staring closely at the stronghold.

As long as a devil threatens Wang Ping's safety, they will definitely kill the devil immediately.

Of course, the others who charged with Wang Ping were not so lucky.

Many people were hit by bullets and fell on the charge road.

But these devils who are still alive often only have a chance to shoot once, and once they shoot, it means that their position is exposed.Because the stronghold is not big, whether it is a crooked handle or a pistol, it can cover the entire stronghold.Therefore, as soon as their positions are exposed, they can attract several rounds, or even a dozen rounds of bullets.

In the end, the two squads rushed from the back of the stronghold to the front in only one minute. At this time, there was no living devil in the small stronghold.

The dozen or so people following Wang Ping were staring dumbfounded at the stronghold full of devil corpses. Everyone couldn't believe that almost a squadron of devils was finished just like that, and it was wiped out by dozens of people.

Even though he was also killed seven or eight comrades-in-arms by the stray bullets shot by the devil, compared to the results of the battle before him, these casualties are obviously nothing?
Wang Ping didn't join them in a daze. He glanced at the watch on his wrist and ordered: "There are three minutes left for the main force of the devils to rush over, and one minute to clean the battlefield. First take the crooked handle, then the grenadier and For the grenade, take three or eight caps and bullets at the end, each person should not be able to carry more than twenty catties, and then retreat immediately!"

"There's a crooked handle over there! There's also a grenadier, there must be a grenade, you guys go there!" The two squad leaders immediately reacted and followed the order.

In less than a minute, under the urging of Wang Ping, the remaining dozen or so people from the two squads left the stronghold with a look of reluctance, and then joined the artillery platoon and retreated back together.

As for the retreat direction, it must be different from the retreat direction of the main force.

Just less than 200 meters away from the stronghold, the main force of the Japanese army holding torches appeared at the gate of the stronghold.

Perhaps because he was worried that the Eighth Route Army would still have an ambush in the stronghold, General Ono, led by his own son, did not rashly order his imperial army to rush in.Instead, he ordered the puppet army who cooperated with the attack to deploy a company to kill them.

The puppet army is even more afraid of death, not to mention this kind of action that is close to stepping on a landmine in front.

Therefore, the puppet army dawdled for nearly 5 minutes, and finally entered the stronghold in fear when a Japanese squad was forced by machine guns, and then it took nearly 10 minutes to walk out of the stronghold and report all the imperial troops to Ono All died in battle, and there was no one in the stronghold.

"Baga, the cunning Eighth Route Army has eaten another infantry squadron of mine. I must catch you and tear you all to pieces!" Pulling out his command saber and slashing at the earthen wall beside him, Dazuo Ono instantly turned into a head The angry lion cursed loudly!
Then he ordered the chief of staff around him: "Chasing, chasing immediately, we must catch up with the Eighth Route Army and destroy them!"

The chief of staff quickly stood up and reminded: "The captain calm down, the Eighth Route Army can eat up our squadron in such a short period of time, which shows that they are very powerful. We rashly pursued them, and the humble staff was worried that they would fall into the trap. The Eighth Route Army is really too cunning!"

"Then what do you think we should do? Don't you just watch the Eighth Route Army Tao Zhiyao, and the more than 200 warriors here will die in vain!" Ono asked back with a look of reluctance!
Then he directly waved his hand to prevent the chief of staff from continuing to speak, and shouted with a murderous look: "If I don't even have the courage to avenge the warriors, how can I, the captain of the regiment, convince the crowd, and how can our regiment be expanded into a brigade!"

"Don't talk about it, immediately determine the retreat direction of the Eighth Route Army, and pursue it with all your strength. This time, I will definitely destroy them!"

"Hi!" Immediately, a small team leader took the order and led his subordinates to investigate several roads around the stronghold.

The chief of staff looked very ugly, but in the highly hierarchical Japanese army, he had no choice. Who made Ono his superior?

Of course, even if he is full of anger and has no place to vent his anger, as long as he is still in the position of chief of staff for a day, he must fulfill his duties as chief of staff.

After confirming that Ono's order could not be changed, the chief of staff could only retreat and reminded: "Commander, the Eighth Route Army is very cunning and is best at ambushes. If we plan to pursue with all our strength, we must make relevant preparations!"

"Yoxi!" Ono didn't refute this time, and nodded in affirmation with great satisfaction!
"This reminder is very timely. There must be troops in front of the main force to investigate and open the way. But in this way, the forward troops will be attacked by the Eighth Route Army again, and the entire army will be wiped out in a short time, just like the forward squadron in the stronghold in front of us!"

Ono's brows relaxed without wrinkling for too long, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and ordered: "Why did I forget the security regiment, we can ask the security regiment to transfer a company to the front to investigate and open the way!"

Speaking of this, Ono actually showed a meaningful smile on his face.Because there was something in his heart that he didn't say: "Anyway, the guards are all Chinese. No matter how many people die, it has nothing to do with the imperial army. The big deal is to catch more young and strong to supplement the guards!"

The chief of staff brightened his eyes and added: "In order to prevent the puppet army from being cowardly and not careful in the investigation, we can also take out a combat unit of the imperial army to supervise these puppet troops and act as a forward force together!"

"Yoxi, that's the decision. As soon as the reconnaissance team finds the Eighth Route Army's retreat direction, the vanguard will set off, and the follow-up main force will start after an interval of 500 meters. We must catch up with the Eighth Route Army and destroy them!" Ono Dazuo directly made the decision, with a murderous look on his face ordered.
