Aoki felt very upset about his day's battle. The opponent clearly had only a few dozen people and was seriously short of weapons and ammunition. They didn't even have a machine gun, but they caught the fighter plane in the movement. When his troops were dispersed, they actually
Nearly twenty people were wiped out.
Also, he lost a lot of supplies, and now they didn't even have enough for dinner at night. They had to pool the food and water they had with them for a half-starved dinner, and they didn't even have a blanket to rest at night.
His men had no choice but to light a fire and surround it to deal with the cold air in the mountains.
It seemed that he had to concentrate his forces tomorrow not to be fooled again, and to wait for supplies from behind. He didn't want to retreat just yet. He couldn't accept such a defeat. The majestic Imperial Japanese Army was actually beaten by local armed forces in the mountains.
A disastrous defeat, we must take revenge tomorrow!
However, in the middle of the night, gunfire suddenly came from not far away, and the sentry set up was shot dead. The soldiers sitting around the fire were also attacked. The Japanese and puppet soldiers who had just entered the hazy moment were awakened. They panicked.
He hid in panic.
"Organize a counterattack immediately." Aoki howled and ordered.
As he yelled and cursed, his men began to fight back fiercely towards the place where the gunshots came from. Seeing that the gunshots from the opposite side became sparse, Aoki wanted to launch an attack, but he suddenly realized that this might be a lure from the enemy.
The lessons he learned during the day made him a lot more cautious about military strategy. What's more, it was at night, and the terrain and enemy situation were unclear, so it was better to stick to it.
His subordinates hid in hiding places and were on guard according to the order, but there was no movement anymore. After waiting for a long time, Aoki sent out several puppet soldiers to search. The puppet soldiers crawled forward fearfully, but no one could be seen.
.
The dejected Aoki had no choice but to order to strengthen the alert and wait for his men to return to the original place one after another to rest. However, before they could fall asleep again, gunshots suddenly came from the other side. Aoki ordered a counterattack again in anger, but it was the same as last time.
, the attacker soon disappeared.
There was almost constant gunfire all night, either on the left or on the right, either in front or behind. Aoki finally understood that this was the enemy's harassment, and he wanted to prevent his soldiers from resting, so that they would not have the energy to fight tomorrow. Also, the enemy
This is knowing that you have lost supplies, which is clearly consuming your own ammunition.
When the gunshots rang out again, Aoki ordered to ignore them unless they really saw the attackers. Except for the soldiers on alert, the others took the time to rest. However, it was almost dawn, and his men were among the gunshots.
No one who dared could fall asleep. At this moment, a more dangerous attack slowly approached them.
Although it was already dawn at this time, because we were in the mountains, the mountains and trees blocked the sunlight, so the mountains were still relatively dark, and the sky was already slightly gray.
Su Yuan had woken up, and the distance had become quiet. According to his deployment, the attacking teams stopped attacking at this time. Li Zhuang and Xiao Wu beside him had also woken up. They couldn't sleep at first.
What is the commander doing, not letting the two of them move even if he doesn't go? The two of them muttered for a long time, but seeing that the company commander was already fast asleep, they didn't dare to disturb them. It wasn't until dawn that they realized there was no chance and then they took a nap.
