Chapter 379
Gunshots from the other three directions of the village almost reached the west of the village at the same time. The squadron leader suddenly felt in his throat, afraid that his remaining third team would be killed by the National Rescue Army.
Whatever you are afraid of is coming, and the gunshots in three directions ended, bad news followed one after another.
A messenger rushed towards the squadron leader in a hurry, and before he could stand firm, he reported it.
"Sir, what happened to the troops blocking the south of the village?"
"The National Salvation Army suddenly came out of the village, and there were heavy machine guns to provide fire cover. One of the teams we blocked there was no opponent at all. They were eliminated by an assault by the opponent, and no one was withdrawn!"
Before he finished speaking, the second messenger ran over: "Sir, the troops in the north of the village have been eliminated by the National Salvation Army..."
Hearing this, two words suddenly popped up in the squadron leader's mind: "It's over!"
Although the messengers who went to contact the northern troops have not returned yet, the village north had also fired a gun just now, and their ending should be similar to the other two encirclement troops.
"Sir, we must leave here immediately?" The deputy captain was even more panicked than before, and immediately reminded him.
He is the deputy captain, and even if the troops are defeated, he only needs to bear very little responsibility.
But if you continue to stay here, you may not even be able to save your life.
Seeing that the squadron leader had not accepted this cruel fact, the deputy captain became anxious: "Sir, the National Salvation Army in the village can eat our two infantry squads, and it will definitely eat us."
"Without infantry cover, when the enemy attacks, our 70s and 80 people here don't even have the ability to protect themselves, and their combat effectiveness is not as good as an infantry team."
"We must leave here quickly. When all the national rescue troops from the attacking third team gather to the west of the village, they will definitely attack us. If we want to leave, we will not be able to leave!"
The squadron leader was so scared that he finally realized from the condom.
Today's battle was too big for him. Three infantry squads were killed by the National Rescue Army one by one. Faced with the bad news that followed, I couldn't accept it for a while, and then I just found out of the confusion.
After realizing it now, he immediately showed the unruly expression that a commander should have, stared at his angry eyes, and ordered with murderous intent: "Retreat and return to Pingding County immediately."
"I will repay today's hatred sooner or later!"
The deputy captain wanted to fly back to the county town and quickly received the order: "I will organize everyone to retreat now..."
"The baggage team took the lead, the artillery and heavy machine gun troops followed, and the guards behind the hall!"
After giving the order, Rukong's deputy captain pulled the squadron leader and began to retreat. This scene was clearly seen by Chen Zhong, the commander of the Fourth Battalion of the National Salvation Army. He snorted coldly and shouted: "I just want to retreat now? It's too late!"
"Xiao Wang, are you going to find Company Commander Wang? Let him lead the 12th Company to detour in front of the Japanese? I will follow and chase after me, and attack back and forth to kill all the Japanese who attacked us."
After saying that, he ordered the guard platoon behind him: "Machine gun cover? Others rushed out with me and killed the troops behind the palace? Is this the only remaining riflemen in the Japanese? Kill them, the remaining Japanese will have no melee ability... Kill..."
"Dadada..."
The three light machine guns mounted on the roof of the guards quickly opened fire, and the flying bullets were descending from high to suppress the Japanese troops behind the palace.
This is a Japanese devil in a combat squad, who is only equipped with a light machine gun? It is no match for it at all.
More importantly, the guard platoon was also equipped with ten submachine guns. Once they opened fire, they were no less powerful than ten light machine guns.
When fighting against three light machine guns, there are still many Japanese riflemen who can find opportunities to shoot, causing some casualties to the guard platoon.
As soon as the submachine gun fired, the Japanese had no chance. They hid while hiding and lit up and didn't dare to move? They watched the National Rescue Army rush to their vicinity to throw grenades.
At this time, the Japanese squadron leader retreated only more than 100 meters.
Witness the scene of the guard being flooded by grenades? In shock, he quickly ordered: "The heavy machine gun team stayed behind the palace and blocked the pursuit of the National Salvation Army no matter what."
The Japanese field troops are particularly obedient? Are you not afraid of death? Although you know that staying means death? No one shirks responsibility and carries heavy machine guns and rushes to a small pile of soil next to the official road.
Time is tight, and it is too unrealistic to temporarily build heavy machine gun positions. The Japanese army can only simplify the complex and make use of the terrain.
A heavy machine gun was put on the pile of soil, and the ammunition box that cleared the bullets blocked the machine gun, and a simple machine gun position was completed.
The guard platoon happened to take down the troops behind the Japanese Palace, and did not clean up the battlefield, and directly formed an attacking formation to chase the Japanese retreating troops.
Because the heavy machine gun squad was not protected by infantry, the Japanese machine gunners did not dare to put the national rescue army too close.
So they fired when the guard platoon was still a hundred meters away.
As soon as the dull heavy machine gun fire sounded, the five soldiers in the front of the guard platoon fell to the ground.
Chen Zhong was so scared that he quickly lay on the ground. When Yu Guang swept to the five subordinates who were already motionless in front, he was heartbroken and punched him directly to the ground.
Heavy machine guns are very powerful. Anyone who is ordered by heavy machine gun bullets will die on the spot, more than 10% of the soldiers will be seriously injured and disabled, and less than 10% of the soldiers can recover by chance.
As expected, the five guards in front should be helpless.
They were all elite veterans selected from the entire battalion. Many of them were still the squad leader and were killed by heavy machine guns. It was a loss.
After glanced at the heavy machine guns that were still shooting on the mound, his eyes suddenly turned red, as if they were spitting fire, and he ordered murderously: "Squad 1 continues to feint with me here, and Squad 2 and 3 detours and kill the Japanese in front!"
The captain of the heavy machine gun team is Cao, who is half-squatting next to the heavy machine gun, constantly waving the command knife to guide the machine gunner's shooting direction.
When he saw the guards' platoon split, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
There is no infantry protection here, only ten people from the heavy machine gun squad, including five machine gunners and deputy shooters, four ammunition players, and one commander.
It seems that there are many people, but only four ammunition hands are equipped with self-defense rifles, and two people are protecting each other in a group next to the heavy machine gun.
After the heavy machine gun is fixed, it can only shoot in one direction. If someone circumvents and the heavy machine gun cannot turn to shoot, they can only let four ammunition hands push up, and they will definitely not be able to stop the attack of the National Saving Army.
The National Salvation Army clearly saw its defense loophole, and was opening a breakthrough from this loophole and then destroying itself.
The team leader had no way to break the deadlock, so he could only let the ammunition hand push up, and how long it could last.
Anyway, when we received the mission from the palace, everyone was ready to die here in battle. Since we could no longer survive, all we could do was to hold on for a longer time before we died.
After looking at the National Savior Army that had begun to encircle the country, he decisively ordered!
"The heavy machine gun continues to shoot, and the ammunition hand protects the flanks, blocking the national rescue army that encircles our country at all costs. We can hold on as long as we can!"
“Bao…”
The four ammunition soldiers started firing as soon as they received the order, but they were soon targeted by the light machine guns of the second and third squads. Two of the four ammunition soldiers were killed in an instant, and the remaining two were lying on the ground and they didn't dare to move.
Because the bullets that shot them came from the flanks, the deputy shooter who was guarding the heavy machine gun was not spared, and two of them were killed together.
The team leader who could just half-squatted on the ground was no longer arrogant at this time. He was suppressed by the flank fire and could only lie on the ground to command.
The ammunition hands could not fight back, and the surrounding troops seemed to be in a state of no one, quickly approaching the small mound of soil where the Japanese were under the cover of light machine guns.
The Japanese who couldn't look up had already prepared the grenade and had made the worst plan. They were ready to use the grenade to fight back after the national rescue army approached. They could hold on for one more second.
The soldiers in the guard platoon were all veterans in the army and had been on guard against this move for a long time.
When the Japanese prepared grenades, they also began to prepare grenades, and then tried to disperse the attack formation to reduce the damage caused by grenades to the encirclement troops.
Although the throwing distance of grenades is not as good as grenades, the Japanese have the advantage of terrain and throwing grenades from a high position, the distance will definitely increase a lot, which means that both sides may throw grenades and grenades at the other side at the same time.
Regardless of whether this situation will happen in the end, it is definitely correct to be prepared in advance and be prepared for any eventuality.
"Top the grenade..." When there were nearly forty meters between the mound, the two squad leaders issued an order at the same time.
As soon as I threw the grenade out, five or six grenades flew out from the mound.
The squad leader's face changed, and he subconsciously fell to the ground, shouting: "There is a grenade... everyone lie down..."
"Boom boom boom boom..." The grenade and the grenade exploded at the same time, but the mound where the Japanese were located was obviously much more violent, and the explosion point was very concentrated, and the heavy machine gun position was instantly submerged in the smoke of gunpowder.
The grenades thrown by the Japanese were very divided, with at least twenty meters apart between the grenades and the grenades.
The soldiers lay on the ground in advance, and there should be little casualties.
"Start the retreat! Something must have happened to the heavy machine gun squadron!" The Japanese squadron leader realized something was wrong when he heard the explosion and shouted quickly, and his steps under his feet couldn't help but start to speed up.
The only thing that made him glad was that the heavy machine gun team had bought him nearly ten minutes and successfully landed the pursuers of the National Rescue Army more than a thousand meters away.
The battlefield is only twelve kilometers away from the county town. As long as everyone's speed is fast enough and nothing unexpected happens in the middle, they will definitely be able to return to the county town before the National Salvation Army catches up again.
But things went against my expectations.
When the retreating troops ran to a five-kilometer distance from the county town, the pursuers led by Chen Zhong were still seven or eight hundred meters behind.
The Japanese squadron leader was very happy. If this situation continues, he will definitely be able to retreat to the county town smoothly.
The nerves that were tense all the way finally calmed down.
But at this moment, the gunshot that he least wanted to hear rang again.
Dozens of national-saviors seemed to be divine weapons from the sky, but suddenly rushed out of a village in front. The soldiers at the front thrust light machine guns and shot at their location while rushing.
