Chapter 788, reinforcements arrive
The comrades in a row gathered together again. Because the Japanese were chasing them closely and the road ahead was blocked, they could only join forces and wait for reinforcements.
The radios carried by artillery observers were not given for free. They were capable of real-time communication and had a communication range of 10 kilometers.
Therefore, when he discovered that a squadron was chasing his own platoon, the 3rd squad leader asked the observer to turn on the phone and call for help. As soon as he heard that his 1st platoon was being chased and beaten by Japanese soldiers, the comrades in the reconnaissance company gave up and took up weapons one after another.
, under the leadership of the company commander, responded all the way here.
Xiawa Village is a small village located in a small mountain valley southeast of Xiaodong Mountain. This is the agreed-upon meeting place.
"Company Commander...we are here..." At the entrance of the village, Platoon Commander Lu led a group of people, including the wounded and fallen comrades, and rushed into the village.
"Let's go into the village. How many Japanese are chasing you?" Captain Han looked at the group and found that everyone was missing, including artillery observers, so he asked.
"Mom, these devils have taken some kind of medicine. The machine gunner is dead, the squadron leader and the two squad leaders are dead, and the grenadier is dead. They are still chasing after us! If it weren't for us... we would just follow
They fought hard!" said Platoon Leader Lu.
"Old Lu, if you work hard, you can't defeat the Japanese. We have to use our brains!" said Li, the elder of the second platoon.
"Yes, Lao Lu, you have worked hard this time, and the rest is up to us!" Qiu, the elder of the third platoon, said.
"Healthman, come here quickly and take a look at the wounded. It was a grenade explosion!" Platoon Commander Lu ignored the two comrades and quickly called to the healthman.
The hygienist was naturally brought by Company Commander Han and the others. They were from the artillery battalion health team and could perform some simple surgeries.
"The injury is not serious... Fortunately, no internal organs or major arteries were injured! Fortunately... hurry up, carry them in, one for each of us, and quickly debridement and treat them!" The two hygienists looked at the injured.
, start treating immediately.
Well, the treatment location is in a common people's house. They use alcohol and iodine to simply disinfect, and then treat the wound. Anesthetic?? Those things are expensive, and they don't hurt important parts such as internal organs, so I can only endure it...
In fact, even if they endure it, the wounded are lucky. At least it has only been 15 minutes since they were injured. And this is still on the battlefield. Someone is taking care of the injured, which is lucky.
We are doing an operation here. At the entrance of Xiawa Village, Company Commander Han and others, as well as the returning Platoon Commander Lu, have already arranged for defense. Well, they are just a Japs squadron without grenade launchers and light machine guns. We are almost full.
The reconnaissance company formed is enough to crush this squadron.
The battle here in Xiabao Village came quickly, because the Japanese were chasing them all the way, and even the Japanese Captain Kudo saw Platoon Leader Lu and others entering the village through the telescope. Therefore, the Japanese were biting and refusing to let go all the way.
They went directly to the outside of the village and attacked the inside of the village.
The Japs actually brought over those crooked ones who had lost their machine gun groups, and even grenades were brought over by the Japs.
Therefore, in the initial attack, the Japanese machine guns were firing and the grenade bombs were exploding randomly, and the momentum was very huge.
But the comrades of the reconnaissance company who were guarding the village looked at the flying bullets and the grenade grenades that had no accurate impact on their faces with relaxed expressions. At this level? This game is stable!
"Mom, why don't we say that we have the same people but different fates? Look at the 17th Regiment and the mixed brigade. They were guarding the county town, and the Japanese officially attacked once. Look at us, this little Japanese has taken some gunpowder, right? They were all beaten back.
Five attacks!" On the main position of Xiaodong Mountain, the 4th Battalion Commander said helplessly.
"You still care who the Japs want to fight? We are the main force! The main force must look like the main force. The little Japs have been fighting for so long and have lost more than half of their strength. We can withstand it!"
The 3rd Battalion Commander shouted from afar.
"I don't understand, why doesn't our regiment commander allow artillery to assist?" the 4th Battalion Commander shouted.
"Why are there no backup? Wasn't it destroyed by the Japanese artillery? What else do you want? Which one is better, fighting under artillery fire or gun-to-gun fighting like this? Besides, our grenades are better than those of the Japanese
That’s a lot!” the 3rd Battalion Commander said angrily.
"Do you think this Japanese air force is really coming?" the 4th Battalion Commander asked.
"If the Japanese air force doesn't come to bomb, why should we withdraw from the front line and put up dummies again? And look at the back mountain, those wooden cannons are prepared for bombers... No, we have to leave.
Stay away, if you are killed by a cannonball, I will still have to direct the battle for you!" said the 3rd Battalion Commander.
Well, this is Xiaodong Mountain at this time. Because I learned from the radio that 12 new bombers took off from the Japanese Taiyuan Airport, so after repelling the fifth Japanese attack, the 772nd Regiment took the initiative to withdraw from the front-line position and started
Preparations for air defense.
Looking at the first-line positions on the hillside, the trenches are in dilapidated condition. They were bombed by Japanese artillery and grenades. In the back mountain, there is a stretcher team of civilians carrying the wounded all the way to the county seat. There is a field hospital there.
Have major surgery.
In front of the position surrounding Xiaodongshan, 100 meters away from the position, an unknown number of Japanese corpses were scattered scatteredly. These Japanese soldiers were the Japanese soldiers who were killed during the attack. Well, it is worth mentioning.
Yes, there were the most Japs at 100 meters, and they died the most miserably. Almost all their bodies were covered with wounds. At first glance, they were killed by the barrages fired from shotguns...
As for Qin County, there are only five observation posts left on the south gate of the county, and the rest have retreated into the county. Looking from outside the city gate, the entire straight north-south street is deserted, just like an empty city.
of.
However, only the soldiers who personally participated in the layout of the city defense knew that there were actually 100 directional mines deployed on this street. Well, they are directional mines, a powerful tool for blocking the street. It depends on whether the Japanese dare to come in...
…
Xiaodongshan and the county town temporarily fell into silence, but in Xiawa Village, the Japs had indeed attacked the entrance of the village. Moreover, the Japs attacked all the way without encountering any resistance. It seemed that the Eighth Route Army they were chasing before had already
Leaving the village from there...
However, the observation post left by the Japs on the top of the mountain kept staring around the village and found no trace of the Eighth Route Army going out. Therefore, the attack continued, and the Japs did not want to give up the platoon leader. Well, maybe they captured a semi-automatic
I will take the initiative to retreat, but I haven't gotten one yet.
Chapter completed!
