Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 96
The devil who was really not afraid of death had already stayed at the station with the adjutant just now, facing Hamasaki's gaze, all the devils around lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Baga, are you still warriors of the empire? Don't you all want to be cowards?" Hamasaki couldn't help cursing loudly.

In the end, Major Hamasaki named a second lieutenant directly, and then left him a combat unit, and then led the rest of the troops to continue fleeing towards Laiyuan without looking back.

Ten minutes later, Wang Ping appeared in front of the Japanese blocking positions.

Because it was too late to dig a trench, a dozen devils directly used the dirt slopes on both sides of the official road to lay down on the ground to block the independent battalion.

"Battalion Commander, there are not many devils. I will lead people to kill them directly, and I can eat them in one charge!" Zhang Qing, the company commander, immediately rushed to Wang Ping's side to ask for a fight.

"Use the grenade first, and then charge. We have won the battle tonight, and we can sacrifice one less soldier!" Wang Ping shook his head and ordered.

It took less than half a minute for the four grenades to drop a dozen grenades on the devil.

Seeing that the devils behind the soil slope were constantly being blown up in the explosion, Wang Ping ordered Zhang Qing to attack without saying a word.

"Da da da..." The six crooked handles started, and the six machine gunners pulled the triggers and fired, while rushing towards the devil's position.

The rifleman followed, charging forward with his rifle.Of course, the guns in their hands were not idle during the charge. As long as there was a change in the Japanese position, they would immediately greet them with bullets to minimize the threat.

Although the consumption of offensive bullets in this way is very high, the general Eighth Route Army cannot bear it at all.However, after several attacks, commanders at all levels of the independent battalion have seen the huge benefits brought by this offensive method.

The machine gun lead means that the attacking force can have a steady stream of firepower to suppress the Japanese army.In this way, the casualties of the attacking troops can be reduced to a minimum.

The previous successful attacks again and again have proved this fact to them.

There were fifteen devils in total, and the random bombing of the four-door grenadier reduced them by more than half.The remaining six or seven devils looked at the charging Eighth Route Army, and they really wanted to get out from behind the slope and fight back.However, the offensive firepower of the company was too fierce, and the swishing bullets all flew back against the edge of the slope.As soon as they looked up, bullets flew over and exploded their heads.

After three people died in a row, the remaining four devils could only act like cowards, hiding behind the slope and bayoneting their rifles, hoping that their good hand-to-hand combat could draw a few Eighth Route Army troops to back them up before they died.

To their desperation, they did not wait for the Eighth Route Army to fight with their bayonets, but instead waited for more than a dozen grenades that fell from the sky and emitted white smoke.

"Baga, it's a grenade, everyone, cover up quickly... Boom boom boom..." A sergeant who was still alive, before he finished his terrified reminder, a violent explosion rang in their ears.

The four devils were all affected, either directly killed or injured, and lost their fighting power!

As soon as the attacking troops charged up the slope defended by the Japanese army, Wang Ping knew that the devils were finished, and then he ordered to the soldiers around him who were not involved in the attack: "Comrades, work harder and keep chasing the devils!"

So, a chasing battle began again.

Half an hour later, both the devil and Wang Ping's physical strength dropped a lot.

Looking at the soldiers around him who were already panting heavily, Wang Ping realized that if he continued to chase like this, he must be the one who couldn't hold on first.After all, the battles around him have experienced a high-intensity battle.The devils have always waited for work with ease, and their physical strength must be better than that of the independent battalion.

"Among the comrades, are there any locals?" The Independence Battalion recruited a lot of recruits from the surrounding villages, and they must have been assigned to the first company. Wang Ping asked if he thought about it.

"I am!" Four or five people stood up immediately!

Wang Ping asked expectantly: "Then do you know of any shortcuts nearby that you can copy, directly in front of the devils, the closer the better!"

"I know one!" Soon a soldier responded.

Wang Ping couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and then ordered to the soldier: "Okay, take us to take a shortcut right away, and go back to credit you!"

This idea came to Wang Ping on the spur of the moment. As he was running, Wang Ping felt that the current official way is not like that of later generations, which can be straightened if it can be straightened.Instead, with the help of the mountain and terrain, try to choose an easy place to build the road, and this leads to the situation that there are bends everywhere on the official road.

Since there are many curves, there must be shortcuts and trails that ordinary people take out in a hurry. This is also a situation that often occurs in mountainous areas in later generations.

Although the path was difficult, Wang Ping finally reached the front of Hamasaki no matter what.

At this time, dozens of soldiers were flushed with exhaustion, and they were all so tired that they lay on the ground and didn't want to get up.

"The devil is coming, hold on!" Seeing the faint light of a string of torches appearing at the end of the official road, Wang Ping immediately got tired and called his subordinates to prepare for the battle.

"The devils lit the torches, and it is easy to see who is carrying the radio. We are here to ambush the devils, and the machine gunners load the bullets. After the battle starts, we must use the fiercest firepower to kill the devils. But no one can shoot the radio. The devils, the devils around the radio station gave me three sharpshooters. We have been chasing for so long just to set up the radio station, and we must capture it intact!"

The ghosts who had been running for two hours were also very tired, but none of them dared to stop.Although there was no sign of the Eighth Route Army's pursuing troops behind them, the Eighth Route Army was so cunning that they might come out of nowhere and attack them in an ambush.

Therefore, even though their legs were weak from running, dozens of devils still gritted their teeth and persisted.

Fortunately, on the way to retreat, Hamasaki contacted Laiyuan City by radio, and asked Laiyuan City to dispatch troops from the nearest stronghold to support him.

From the time point of view, there are still 10 minutes before everyone can meet with the support team.It was precisely because of this expectation that dozens of devils gritted their teeth and hurried on their way.

Just when they were full of anticipation, waiting to meet the support troops.A row of human heads and gun muzzles suddenly appeared on the mountain ridge next to them, and then tongues of fire spewed out from these gun muzzles.

"Baga! How could there be the Eighth Route Army here!" Major Hamasaki shouted with horror on his face.

But what answered him was the screams besides the sound of machine gun fire.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the dozens of subordinates were lost, and the radio operator beside him also fell to the ground, and his head was shot directly, and red and white brains were splashed everywhere.

"Come on, keep going forward, you can survive if you go out!" The enemy ambushing him is powerful, if he stays here, the whole army will be wiped out in less than half a minute, Hamasaki knows this truth very well.Then make a decisive breakout order.

The firepower of the Independence Battalion was too fierce. Under the protection of five or six people, Major Hamasaki rushed forward for more than ten meters, and all of them were killed.

As for Hamasaki himself, when he was about to rush out of the firepower net, a bullet shot into his head with great precision.

In an instant, more than half of Hamasaki's head was smashed.Then with a face full of despair, he fell heavily on the ground, dying with regret.
