Chapter 37 The Central Army's Taunt
Zhao Zhiguo did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.
The soldiers under Tao Xue's command are launching an attack on the village. If the Japanese machine gunners are not dealt with as quickly as possible, a large number of Chinese soldiers will be killed.
Zhao Zhiguo fired three shots in a row, with no miss, and he was killed by gunfire.
"The machine gunner changes positions, the enemy has a sniper!"
At such a long distance, the gunfire would only sound a second and a half after the Jaap's machine gunner was killed. Moreover, there were Chinese soldiers charging, so it was impossible to tell where the gunfire came from.
However, this did not trouble the commander of the Little Devil. He quickly moved to the dead machine gunner and judged Zhao Zhiguo's general position through the wounds.
The Little Japs' second lieutenant saw Zhao Zhiguo with a binoculars. At this time, Zhao Zhiguo was holding his rifle and shooting at the Little Japs' machine gun that was still firing.
He saw the flames coming from the muzzle of Zhao Zhiguo's gun, and the next second, their machine gun misfired.
Zhao Zhiguo's shot scared the young Japanese lieutenant. He was killed from such a long distance. There were not many people in their army who had such superb marksmanship.
When the little devil looked at Zhao Zhiguo with a telescope, Dianhou also saw the little devil's second lieutenant with a telescope.
"Company commander, on the right front of the Jaap machine gunner, there is a man with a telescope looking at you." Dianhou gave Zhao Zhiguo the direction.
Without thinking, Zhao Zhiguo raised his hand and fired a shot, but it did not hit the little Jaap second lieutenant. A little Jaap was going to take up the position of the machine gunner, and happened to block the shot for his commander.
"Oh! What a pity!" Dianhou sighed.
Seeing the soldiers beside him fall down, Captain Xiaojiazi knew that the gunman in the distance was targeting him and immediately hid behind the bunker.
"Hide, everyone hide, there is an enemy sniper six hundred meters ahead and to the left."
The Japanese second lieutenant immediately issued a warning to his soldiers, asking them to find an angle to avoid Zhao Zhiguo.
Tao Xueyi, who was directing the battle, was also wondering who was so good at shooting.
The Japs' machine guns misfired many times, and their troops were able to enter the village. Otherwise, they would have suffered many casualties.
At this time, Tao Xueyi's troops were only one yard away from the Japs.
A few little Japs wanted to stick their heads out to check the situation of the Chinese army, but as soon as they showed up, bullets hit them.
The soldiers of the Central Army finally approached the courtyard, and at this time they once again used their strengths in throwing grenades.
The little devil once again tasted the grenade initiation. In the small courtyard, the Japanese army could not escape.
The Japanese soldiers, who were bombed to pieces, could not bear to be so aggrieved and died. They jumped over the wall in a hurry, fixed their bayonets one after another, jumped out of their bunkers, and made a last stand with the Chinese army.
Tao Xueyi's soldiers were so numerous that they surrounded the last dozen or so Japanese troops on three levels inside and three outside.
"Let's go down and have a look!"
Zhao Zhiguo saw that the soldiers of the Central Army had gone head-to-head with the Japanese army, so he rushed towards the village with his gun in hand.
However, Tao Xueyi was not like Zhao Zhiguo. Zhao Zhiguo would not fight with the Japanese army with bayonets. His idea was to never use guns if he had cannons, and never use knives if he had guns.
As soon as Tao Xue saw that his side had a huge numerical advantage, he wanted to fight with the Japs.
The little devils were even more unambiguous. They originally planned to defeat the enemy to the death, but when they saw the Chinese soldiers surrounding them, they rushed forward as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood.
Several Chinese soldiers were unprepared and were stabbed by the Japs.
Simply fighting with a bayonet, the Chinese soldiers do not have any advantage. Although the little devils are all short, they are stronger than the Chinese soldiers.
The Type 38 rifle equipped with a bayonet is also obviously longer than the Type 24 rifle in the hands of the Central Army, which is the Chinese formal rifle.
After injuring several soldiers, Tao Xueyi felt something was not good. They were completely unable to fight against the little Japs, so he quickly asked the soldiers to shoot.
Finally, after the Japanese second lieutenant was shot, he cursed "Baga" and closed his eyes.
"Battal Commander, Zhao Zhiguo is here!"
Just after the battle, a soldier reported to Tao Xueyi.
"Zhao Zhiguo? Are you back so soon? Have they completed their mission?"
Tao Xueyi was still curious. They just met yesterday.
"I think there is a high probability of failure. Just a few of them want to attack the Japs headquarters." An officer of the Central Army said.
Tao Xueyi did not have that kind of superiority over the local army, but the soldiers and officers under him were not the same as Tao Xueyi.
In the eyes of these Central Army soldiers, bumpkins are just bumpkins and will never compare to them.
Tao Xueyi frowned. He could sense from his tone his subordinates' prejudice against the local troops, but this was not the time to lecture.
"Pay attention to your attitude in a moment, maybe they need our help."
Tao Xueyi was very disgusted with this behavior of classifying one of his own people as superior or inferior.
The officers and soldiers around him seemed to agree with Tao Xueyi's words.
"Captain Tao!" Zhao Zhiguo still saluted Tao Xueyi, "What's going on? Have you been discovered by the little Japs?"
"How could it not be discovered!" Tao Xueyi smiled bitterly.
They had not been in the village for a long time. They were attacking the Japs in the woods and constantly spying on the movements of the Japanese army. The Japs had already set their sights on them.
Fortunately, the scouts were more alert. When the Japanese army targeted them, they were aware of the problem in advance and reported the situation to Tao Xueyi in time, so Tao Xueyi was prepared.
But there was one thing that Zhao Zhiguo didn't understand: "But when we came to the village, we found that there were still some soldiers fighting in the village."
"Oh, you said this, our wounded soldiers stayed behind voluntarily. They were willing to attract little devils for us, so they deserved to die. In war, there are no undead."
When Tao Xueyi said this, the expression on his face was very dull, as if these wounded soldiers should be left as bait for them.
Zhao Zhiguo felt very uncomfortable after hearing Tao Xueyi's words, but he still tried his best to suppress his inner anger.
However, Dianhou couldn't control his temper: "What qualifications do you have to decide their life and death? They are human beings! They are not animals you raised!"
"Norihou!"
Zhao Zhiguo quickly grabbed Dianhou.
"What qualifications do you, a small soldier, have to accuse our battalion commander?" An officer of the Central Army yelled at Dianhou, "Yes, so what if we used them as bait, in order to eliminate the little devils and protect the majority of the people
For safety, someone has to pay the price."
Zhao Zhiguo's brows almost knitted together. This was the first time he heard such remarks.
In the eyes of officers, wounded soldiers seem to be abandoned.
"It's not like you, who brazenly talked about attacking the Japs' headquarters. You were scared to death even before you saw the Japs, right?" The officer standing next to Tao Xueyi continued to taunt Zhao Zhiguo.
