Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 78
Just when they realized something was wrong, a row of human heads suddenly appeared on the mountain ridge, and everyone had weapons in their hands, some were holding crooked handles, some were holding pistols, and some were holding rifles.

A total of four crooked handles, ten pistols, and five three-eight big caps were fired together. The dense bullets instantly covered the standing Japanese and puppet troops, and more than a dozen people were killed on the spot.

The reaction speed of the remaining Japanese and puppet troops was also very fast. They subconsciously lay on the ground, and some people even took up their weapons and prepared to fight back.

At this time, the sharpshooter in the rifleman opened fire.

For them, the shooting distance of tens of meters is like hitting a live target, and every shot is accurate.

After two consecutive rounds of gunfire, the few Japanese and puppet soldiers who were still alive were either directly shot in the head or shot in the back of the heart, and then died.

At this time, the three mortars behind him had almost fired, and each gun still had three shells that had not been fired.

The main force of the devils 600 meters away has become organized after a short period of confusion.Although he didn't intend to kill them yet, Wang Ping was sure that as soon as the remaining few shells were fired, the devils who had no scruples would come here to kill them.

"Rush out, force the puppet army to surrender, and then retreat!" Wang Ping immediately ordered without saying a word.

"Don't move, anyone who moves will be killed!" Nearly a hundred puppet soldiers who were lucky and scared, but also a little frightened, faced the rushing Eighth Route Army, and their subconscious reaction was to be surrounded. When there were less than twenty people, four crooked handles and ten pistols were already condescending, facing themselves in a half-encircled circle.

No matter when, there are always a few people who have a fluke idea.

Seeing that there are not many Eighth Route soldiers, he must be unwilling to be a prisoner, and then subconsciously want to escape back.

But as long as they move, they will immediately attract several bullets.And these bullets were not polite, and greeted them directly, and four or five veterans were killed on the spot.

"No one is allowed to move, and you can do whatever I tell you to do. If anyone doesn't obey the order, the gun in my hand will not be polite to him!" Chen Junyu shouted.

Under the threat of death, the puppet army finally became honest.One by one, they raised their rifles above their heads, waiting for Chen Junyu's order.

"Remove the bolts!" In less than a minute, the bolts of the puppet army's rifles were gathered together and put into two cloth bags, which were carried by two riflemen from the Independent Battalion.

Without the bolt, the rifle is useless.While Chen Junyu breathed a sigh of relief, he continued to order: "From now on, you are the prisoners of the Eighth Route Army. As usual, line up in two rows and follow us. If you don't want to be captured by the devils behind and become traitors again, you can go as fast as you can." I hurry up!"

Most of the puppet soldiers were forced to become traitors. Now they finally had the opportunity to ask the puppet army to be called traitors. Of course, they would not let it go. Immediately carrying rifles, they lined up in two teams and moved behind the mountain ridge under the command of Chen Junyu .

At this time, the artillery platoon that had fired shells had already put away its equipment.Seeing that Chen Junyu brought all the puppet troops back, Wang Ping was very satisfied, and without further ado, he ordered the troops to continue to retreat!

Wang Ping walked for almost 5 minutes before a squadron of devils rushed up the mountain ridge cautiously.

Looking at the position under his feet where there was not even a single corpse of the Eighth Route Army except for the bullet casings, one could imagine the anger of the leader of the Devil Squadron, and he wished to lead people to catch up with the retreating Eighth Route Army immediately.

But as soon as the order came to his lips, he held it back.

Because, the bloody and tragic scene of the Guanliang stronghold suddenly appeared in his mind. The Eighth Route Army has the ability to easily eat up a squadron of the Imperial Japanese Army. What about the next infantry squadron to be wiped out?
The squadron leader finally chose to be patient, and while ordering the troops to be vigilant on the spot, he sent someone back to report to the regiment leader.

It was already 10 minutes before Ono climbed the mountain ridge.

Thinking that the Eighth Route Army, which he hated so much, had fled under his nose and caused a lot of casualties to the imperial army before leaving, Dazuo Ono's anger surged upwards.

The chief of staff, who had just finished counting the battle results, really didn't want to come over and touch Ono's eyebrows at this time, but thinking that the Eighth Route Army might flee further and further, there were many things that Ono needed to decide immediately.In the end, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and report.

"Captain, the battle damage just now has been counted. The vanguard army was completely wiped out. Fortunately, we only have one combat unit with thirteen imperial warriors, otherwise our losses would be even greater!"

"However, judging from the situation on the battlefield, almost all the puppet troops of the forward company were captured by the Eighth Route Army. It can be seen that these puppet troops are not as powerful as we imagined when facing the Eighth Route Army. It can even be said that they have no combat power! So I Artificially, in the following pursuit battle, we must use puppet troops with caution!"

"In addition to the forward troops, the Eighth Route Army's shelling also caused us a lot of casualties!"

"In less than 1 minute of shelling, we killed 43 warriors, 28 were seriously injured and lost combat effectiveness, and dozens of people were slightly injured, but it did not affect combat effectiveness! In addition to the warriors needed to lift the seriously wounded, it was a whole infantry The squadron is out of combat!"

"Baga, is it because the Eighth Route Army's combat effectiveness is too strong or ours has declined. From the moment the troops were dispatched to the present, two infantry squadrons were lost without even seeing the main force of the Eighth Route Army. Can any of you tell us the reason?" Dazuo Ono was angry and directly Turn into a roaring lion, yelling at the surrounding subordinates!

When everyone kept their heads down and said nothing, it was the chief of staff who stood up and explained.

"Captain, one of the fatal reasons is that we don't know much about the Eighth Route Army, at least we haven't even figured out their strength. It's no wonder we don't suffer under such circumstances!"

"Nani?" Ono wanted to get angry and scolded the chief of staff severely.But as soon as the words came to his lips, Ono himself swallowed them back, because what the chief of staff said just now was the truth.

If you know the strength of the Eighth Route Army, you may avoid two consecutive losses.

Just when Ono was hesitating and thinking about how to go next, the chief of staff spoke again.

"Lieutenant Captain, there is still a crisis waiting for us!"

"After almost losing two squadrons, we have less than three infantry squadrons of warriors left in our hands. Including artillery squadrons and machine gun squadrons, the total strength is less than 800. As for the puppet army, there is a little more than one battalion left. But the combat effectiveness is almost negligible."

"If the Eighth Route Army is really as powerful as we imagined, then we will be in danger! As for the reason why the Eighth Route Army annihilated our two squadrons first, it is probably paving the way for the next decisive battle!"

Ono's brow furrowed in an instant, and his already hesitant face became even more hesitant at some point!
