On a highland with an altitude of less than 200 meters, Su Yuan carefully observed the surrounding terrain. The surrounding soldiers were busy building defensive positions. The soldiers skillfully dug out individual soldier trenches, and then dug left and right to dig out one by one.
The loose holes were connected, and two trenches were quickly dug on the position. Stones and sacks filled with sand were arranged on the trenches. At the shooting position, the soldiers set up their machine guns and placed grenades with unscrewed caps in front of them.
, in front of the position, several soldiers were laying defensive mines.
Su Yuan firmly believed that his soldiers, with such proficiency and experience, should have no problem holding off the enemy until dark.
"Correspondent, go and call the deputy company commander and several platoon commanders." Su Yuan ordered.
The platoon commanders who were directing the construction of fortifications heard the company commander's call and immediately ran over, "Company commander." Several people gathered together.
"Have you seen it?" Su Yuan said, pointing to a low plateau a few hundred meters ahead.
"What's wrong?" asked platoon leader Li Zhuang.
"Well, Li Zhuang, the enemy in front of us is a large group of Japanese soldiers. When the enemy advances, they will definitely send out advanced soldiers. They will occupy the high ground to cover the large army and cover the advance." Su Yuan said, having fought against the Japanese soldiers many times, Su Yuan was already very good at it.
Understand the enemy's combat characteristics.
When the Japanese brigade is marching, in addition to sending out a few top soldiers, it will also send out a covering force of twenty or thirty people with heavy machine guns to occupy the high ground along the road. This will cover the advance of the large force.
"Not bad." Everyone responded immediately.
"Let's deal with this group of Japs first." Su Yuan ordered: "Deputy company commander, you lead the second platoon here, and the third platoon will temporarily withdraw to the back as a reserve team."
Li Zhuang understood it as soon as he heard it, and he immediately called for battle: "Company Commander, I'll just go. Our platoon will definitely catch the Japanese by surprise."
"No, this is our first battle and we must fight it well. Only by inflicting pain on the Japs can we attract the Japs brigade and ensure that the main force of the regiment successfully ambush the Japs. This can also buy us time," Su Yuan said.
"I will lead the team myself."
"Yes!" Li Zhuang immediately shouted: "Follow me."
Su Yuan led a platoon forward. They came to the low highland to ambush. Although no fortifications were established here, there were many stacks of grain and hay around to hide. The people piled bundles of cut grain and hay on
Here, less than thirty meters away from the road, it is a place that is not noticed by the enemy. The key is the concealment of the soldiers.
Su Yuan ordered the soldiers to hide in the grain and grass and strictly ordered not to act rashly. They all obeyed the command. Time passed by and finally, Su Yuan heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the road down the slope.
Three Japanese cavalrymen came along the road. It seemed that they were the spearheads of the Japanese exploring the road. They came in a hurry, fired a few shots at the slope, but there was no movement and they immediately rode over.
"Company commander, are you going to fight or not?" Li Zhuang asked quietly, looking at the Japanese under his nose.
"Let the deputy company commander deal with them." Su Yuan observed through the hidden gap between grain and grass and replied: "The Japanese cover team is behind them. Our target is them. Order the soldiers to keep quiet."
"Yes." Li Zhuang whispered the order.
Soon, more than twenty Japs appeared in front of them. Several of them were carrying a heavy machine gun and were running towards their high ground.
"Get ready to fight." Su Yuan raised the rifle in his hand and prepared. A row of soldiers gently stretched out the muzzle of the gun and waited for the order to fire.
The Japanese quickly advanced to a place about fifty meters away from them. At this moment, several crisp gunshots were heard from behind, and it was the deputy company commander who fired at the leading Japanese soldiers.
"Hit!" Su Yuan immediately ordered.
Countless flames suddenly erupted on the high ground. The soldiers of the Sharp Knife Company had high fighting qualities. Many of them were Red Army soldiers and had been baptized by countless battles. Even if some recruits were added later, as the Sharp Knife Company Su Yuan required
It has always been very strict, and the soldiers have been carefully selected, especially the platoon with the strongest combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.
At such a distance, more than a dozen of the Japanese who were caught off guard immediately fell. These Japanese had never seen the Eighth Route Army, and the Kuomintang troops they had seen always collapsed in front of them, so they were always very arrogant. It was for this reason that they directly
Came over.
However, the Japs were well-trained after all, and they did not panic when they suffered a sudden blow. The remaining Japs immediately spread out and lay on the ground to find cover and began to fight back.
"Grenade." Su Yuan shouted immediately.
Immediately, more than a dozen smoke-emitting grenades fell towards the group of Japanese soldiers. The Japanese soldiers in front were blown to pieces. Using the smoke of the explosion, Su Yuan gave the order, "Charge!" Then, the soldiers
With shining bayonets in hand, they poured out from the pile and rushed toward the Japanese. Behind them, machine gunner Xiao Wu used fierce firepower to suppress the enemy and cover the soldiers' attack.
Soon, the soldiers were in close combat with the Japs. There was a clanging sound of weapons, followed by the screams of the Japs.
After several confrontations with the Japanese, Su Yuan was well aware of the Japanese's stabbing methods. Although his soldiers were not weak, it was difficult to win in a one-on-one fight, so he had always ordered his soldiers to fight in groups of two or three.
In this way, he had all the advantages in the stabbing fight. One soldier suppressed the Japs bayonet, and the other warriors attacked directly, making the Japs unable to parry. In order to make a quick decision, Leng Hu held a sword in one hand and a gun in the other. This kind of power was similar to that of the Japs.
Making the opposing Japanese unable to parry.
In just a few minutes, three Japs fell in front of Su Yuan, and the other Japs were also wiped out by the soldiers. The battle was fought cleanly, and no one was killed except for a few soldiers who were injured. More than twenty Japs were eliminated.
, these devils resisted desperately, but no one put down their weapons and surrendered. Fortunately, Su Yuan had seen it before, and this was a lesson learned with blood.
"Clean the battlefield immediately and retreat to the main position." Su Yuan ordered.
