Chapter 271 Suizhong War
Captain Karasawa Sansei felt that the dark night sky outside, this silent defense line without a trace of wind, was extremely unfriendly to him and his squadron.
Such silence made his heart beat like a drum, almost jumping out of his chest.
After hesitating in place for three minutes, the sound of gunfire from Yangjia Village came from far and near.
Squadron Leader Karasawa Sansei understood: These tanks had wreaked havoc in the village from south to north, and then started to sort out from north to south.
If we don't break out, we will be hit by those tanks from behind.
There can be no more hesitation.
Li Zigui saw that there were hundreds of Japs hiding at the entrance of the village, but they refused to step out.
He specially sent people to light the haystacks at the entrance of the village in order to detect the Japanese who escaped from the village.
Platoon Leader Li also specifically ordered the entire platoon to be silent, no fire, no movement, and to stay quietly in the trenches dug by the Japanese.
Even so, the Japanese team that sneaked over from the village did not want to come out.
They are scared!
Platoon leader Li Zigui was very anxious and didn't know what to do to lure these Japanese out.
More than forty national soldiers were all staring at the Japs at the entrance of the village. They could see that there were many Japs rushing to the entrance of the village, at least hundreds of them.
For so many Japanese soldiers, the open area of more than 100 meters from the village entrance to the front of the trenches is their road to death.
Platoon Leader Li prepared two heavy machine guns and six light machine guns. These weapons were all left behind by the Guankou Squadron.
But the Japanese are hiding at the entrance of the village and cannot come out, so no amount of preparation is of any use!
Just when the whole platoon of soldiers wanted to reach out and catch the Japs, the Japs moved.
Squadron Leader Tang Ze Sansheng is a very decisive commander. Now that he has made up his mind.
Immediately gave the order: "Everyone is here, rush over quietly. Charge in big strides, don't make any sound!"
It also observed carefully: the fire produced by the burning haystacks illuminated a location twenty or thirty meters outside the village.
Even if there is an ambush by the national army outside, the entire squadron will be submerged in the darkness after passing these twenty or thirty meters, and will not be easily discovered.
After the order was given, more than a hundred Japanese soldiers from Karasawa's squadron rushed out from their hiding positions. They did not speak or shout, but charged quickly.
The footsteps of more than a hundred Japanese soldiers charging were also very loud.
Seeing the Japanese finally rushing out, platoon leader Li Zigui finally let out a sullen breath.
Seeing the Japanese who were at the rear rushing into the darkness, he gave the order: "Fire!"
The sound of machine gun fire immediately rang out as soon as the order "Click!" was given.
The eight tongues of fire in the darkness were like eight flaming whips, lashing out at the more than a hundred charging Japanese.
The sound of machine gunfire from the front rang out, and Captain Tangze Sansheng immediately knew: "We have been ambushed."
Fortunately, the entire squadron was in darkness, protected by the night, so that the national army on the opposite side could not detect itself.
The next moment he was desperate.
The eight tongues of flame drawn out by the machine gun on the opposite side were not the most deadly.
What's even more deadly is that after the eight tongues of fire, seven more fires suddenly lit up in the original darkness.
These fires are not dim like haystacks. These fires are burning brightly from the beginning.
The more than 100 Japanese soldiers of the charging Tangze squadron were completely exposed to the flames.
Machine guns chased and fired at the Japanese soldiers. Captain Futai Tai yelled in horror: "We've been ambushed."
Squadron Leader Tang Ze ordered loudly: "Go back! Go back!"
It is easy for them to rush in from the village, but it is very difficult to retreat.
The crossfire network composed of eight machine guns was simply not something these devils could bear.
Captain Futai Tai's reaction was a beat too slow and he was already shot to the ground by a machine gun.
Only the veterans who reacted the fastest and fell to the ground immediately when they heard the gunshots were lucky enough to escape the first round of fire.
As the seven fires burned, the prostrate Japs became targets of machine gun fire.
This made them uncomfortable. The retreat order issued by squadron leader Karasawa Sansei could not be carried out at all.
Under such intense crossfire, it was not easy to climb back more than fifty meters to the village entrance.
"Machine gun! Counterattack!" Squadron Leader Karasawa Sansei saw that he could no longer retreat.
A new order was immediately issued. Machine gunner Hayato Nakamura hurriedly prepared, and deputy gunner Kitajima Shun loaded the machine gun.
Li Zigui led more than 40 of his men in the dark. The enemy was in the light and I was in the dark.
Every move of the Japanese could be seen clearly.
Seeing their machine guns displayed, Platoon Leader Li sneered: "Shui Yihan! Beat the machine gunner."
"Yes!" Shui Yihan is a special marksman of the Ninth Company and has excellent marksmanship.
When he came out to perform a mission this time, Battalion Commander Yao specially asked him to go with him.
Shui Yihan looked at Nakamura Hayato who was still busy at a distance of sixty meters, took aim, and fired:
"Crack!"
There was a gunshot, and Nakamura Hayato fell down.
Hitting a Japanese enemy at a distance of 60 meters is really a very easy task for a special shooter.
Kitajima Shun did not expect that Nakamura Hayato, the main shooter, died without firing a shot.
Quickly change positions. It is a substitute. If the main shooter dies, it should be the main shooter.
Kitajima Shun served as the main shooter, and Saito Taiko quickly stepped forward as the secondary shooter.
Just as Bei Daojun was getting ready, Shui Yihan's second shot arrived.
Kitajima Shun fell, and it was unclear where Saito Taiga was: he was being targeted by the opposing national army.
It didn't even dare to touch the machine gun. It pressed its head tightly to the ground and retreated several meters.
The roar of Squadron Leader Karasawa came to my ears: "Machine gun! Fire! Fire!"
But after the two machine gunners died, no Japanese dared approach within three meters of the machine gun.
The Japs of Karasawa's Sansei Infantry Squadron are now in a dilemma. They can't advance, they can't retreat.
Even staying where you are is not enough: the firepower of the national army never stops.
Feng Long, a platoon of soldiers, was holding a heavy machine gun. Now he had begun to shoot the Japanese in front of him in a grid pattern.
From left to right, and then from right to left, each time he fired, he moved about one meter closer, so that none of the Japanese creeping on the ground could escape.
