The Strongest Soldier of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 139 The Anti-sweeping Battle Begins

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!" The scholar responded immediately after hearing this. He had heard clearly the tasks assigned to him by Shen Sanduo, and believed that as long as he followed Shen Sanduo's orders, he would definitely get the results they expected.

"Platoon leader, you are both real and fake. What are you going to do? Besides, we are about to evacuate Qigen Village. Is there any point in doing this?" Liu Dachazi didn't understand Shen at all. Sanduo's intention.

Although Shen Sanduo stated in advance that he would give the little devils a big gift during the meeting, he felt that as long as some of the little devils were dealt with, they would have achieved their goal. He fully understood the concentrated firepower of the devils, and he also understood the intention, but now that Shen Sanduo asked the scholar to bury the true and false mines, he couldn't understand.

The team was about to evacuate here after the battle, and there was no point in wasting everyone's time playing with the little devils. That's why Liu Dacha asked Shen Sanduo in bewilderment at this time.

"True and false thunder is to stop the little devil and buy some time for our evacuation!" Shen Sanduo didn't explain much, but simply said what he meant, and then said to Liu Dachazi, "You take two A squad is setting up a defensive position at the intersection to Jinwan Town. When you see scholars and Laoqian approaching, immediately cover their evacuation. My six sons and I will cover your retreat on the main road behind Wulidi! Beyond that is the New Fourth Army Jinwan I believe that the little devils dare not rush into the defense zone of the New Fourth Army, so it is safe for us to enter Jinwan Town!"

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!" After hearing Shen Sanduo's deployment and explanation, he immediately responded that his task was to cover, which is what he is best at, so he naturally has the confidence to complete this task.

"Li Yangdong, you lead a squad of brothers to be responsible for transferring our documents, food, weapons and ammunition!" Shen Sanduo went on to arrange.

"Yes! Please rest assured, the platoon leader. I will handle the transfer properly!" Li Yangdong said after hearing this. In his opinion, these matters are not trivial. Since Shen Sanduo entrusted this matter to her, she must do it well. this matter.

"Okay, brothers, time is running out now, the little devil won't give us too much time, so brothers, we have no rest time, from now on, act immediately!" Seeing that everything has been deployed, Shen Sanduo , So with the support of the two brothers, he climbed up from the chair and said to the brothers.

Everyone saw that Shen Sanduo got up, and they all got up. After listening to Shen Sanduo's words, they immediately started to get busy according to the prior arrangement. Except for the sentinels, everyone in Qigen Village started to be busy with their own affairs.

Early the next morning, when the sun was just rising, Sakata led three brigades of devil soldiers at the front of the line, followed closely by the devil's tank squadron and artillery squadron. The road from Qigen Village came here.

When he came to the corner of Qigen Village at the foot of Qinshan Mountain, Sakata raised his right hand and made a gesture to stop the advance, so that the large army stopped, and then took the telescope from Ono who was standing beside him , Looking up the mountain.

"It seems that the Chinese army in Qigen Village hasn't noticed yet!" Ono saw the silence in front of him, and it seemed that no one appeared at the intersection ahead, so he guessed arbitrarily.

"No! Shen Xiaodan should have already set up an ambush. Look, in such a large forest, I didn't even hear a bird's cry. It's so quiet!" Sakata put down the binoculars and pointed straight ahead.

He was an experienced commander, so of course he could see that something was wrong in the forest, so after discovering the abnormality, he immediately denied Ono's guess.

"Then what should we do?" Upon hearing Sakata's words, Ono looked around in a panic, and then asked Sakata as if he had no idea.

"Even if Shen Xiaodan is prepared, he will only be in one row if he dies, and we have three brigades of the imperial army in our hands. We will play the game of tiger biting mice with Shen Xiaodan!" Sakata said, turning around, saying Looking at Ono, he said, "Order the First Battalion to guard all the main roads, and the Artillery Squadron to start attacking, and shell the forests on both sides of the road for me!"

"Ha Yi!" Hearing the order, Ono responded immediately, then turned around and pulled out his command knife towards the artillery squadron, ordering the artillery squadron to start shelling the mountains and forests on the left and right sides of the road.

Following the direction pointed by the command knife, the devil's artillery squadron immediately set up mortars, and then under the command of the officer, loaded the shells and fired them. For a while, countless shells smashed into the forest on both sides of the road. The explosive explosion ignited all the flames, and the flying dust instantly filled the entire sky, and the gunpowder smoke slowly spread.

After the second round and the third round of shelling, the artillery fire began to extend, and Sakata ordered the Second Infantry Battalion to start a full-scale attack. Hundreds of devils, carrying the [-] big caps, headed towards the village where they entered the village under the guidance of the plaster flag. The road moved forward slowly, and the sound of footsteps on the ground almost shook the ground.

The devil's attack has been going smoothly so far, without being blocked by a single shot, which made Sakata feel uneasy. He really has no idea in his heart, and he doesn't know how Shen Sanduo will deal with his attack.

The devil brigade continued to move forward, and the plaster flag was still at the front of the team to guide the direction, but at this moment, suddenly there was gunfire on both sides of the mountain forest, and the mortar shells were like flowers blooming in the rain. The strips scattered on the main road into the village, falling down the direction of the road one after another. The rumbling explosion engulfed the little devil's fault. The powerful shock wave was blocked by the mountains on both sides and rushed out towards the main road, carrying the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and The strong smell of blood pushed towards the devils who hadn't attacked yet.

"Baga!" Seeing such a scene in Sakata's binoculars, he had to yell, "Cunning Shen Xiaodan, he must have made his men retreat out of the woods when we were shelling, and when our troops entered the main road, Give us another fatal blow!"

"Then let's suppress the artillery of the Chinese people with artillery fire, and cover the imperial army of the second brigade to continue their attack!" Ono was very anxious, and immediately suggested to Sakata, knowing that it would be difficult for their troops to retreat on their own while they were trapped on the road. What's more, the opponent's artillery fire is not weaker than theirs at all, so he can only suggest that Sakata use artillery to cover.

"Yoxi! Order the artillery squadron of the empire to destroy the artillery positions of the Chinese army and cover the attack of the second brigade!" After hearing this, Sakata accepted Ono's suggestion and immediately ordered his artillery to attack Shen Sanduo's blocking force again.
