This is completely risky. If the enemy doesn't fall for the trick, they are likely to be surrounded and eat a solid meal of steel-filled dumplings.
But there is nothing we can do now, there are still two people wrapped up inside.
Even if you can successfully break in, subsequent breakout will be a huge problem.
No matter what the outcome, they have to break through twice.
It would be good to keep a large force here to attract artillery fire from the Japs, at least to contain the firepower.
"Captain, aren't we taking too much risk?" Xu Hu said worriedly.
Before leaving, Sister-in-law Qiu gave many instructions to ensure Ding Wei's safety.
But this time, Ding Wei wants to go deep into the enemy's army. If something goes wrong...
No one can bear such consequences.
"Are you scared?" Ding Wei asked.
"I'm not afraid, I'm just worried about you..." Xu Hu said honestly: "Captain, why don't you just let me lead the troops in to rescue people? You can continue to command here and it will be safe."
"No!" Ding Wei refused directly: "Li Yunlong and Kong Jie are still inside. They have been my comrades for many years. It is impossible for me to watch them die!"
"But so much time has passed, and the number of Japs is at least two regiments, what if they..." At this point, Xu Hu did not dare to go on.
"Fuck you, these two bastards are dying. The kid who can kill them hasn't been born yet!" Ding Wei spoke in a slightly higher tone.
"Yes!" Xu Hu stood up hastily.
"They are my old comrades-in-arms and my brothers for many years. Even if they die, I will carry their bodies out. I will never watch their bodies being insulted by the little devils!" Ding Wei said sternly.
Xu Hu was silent.
"Old commander, everything is ready!" Zhang Long stepped forward and said: "The entire fourth company has been assembled. Please give the order!"
"Zhang Long, increase the offensive on the left wing later, ten minutes, no, three minutes later!" Ding Wei said sternly: "I will lead my troops to attack from the right wing.
At that time, the third company will be responsible for the feint attack, covering my attack from the right wing, and trying to open the enemy's gap as quickly as possible."
"Understood!" Zhang Long stopped talking nonsense and stood up.
"Remember, don't be stingy with firepower. Use all your strength to greet the Japanese so that they don't have time to react," Ding Wei shouted.
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!" Zhang Long said.
"In half an hour, I will return along the original route. When you see the signal flare, you can strengthen the attack and respond to us."
"Understood!" Zhang Long responded.
After issuing the battle order, Ding Wei stopped talking nonsense.
Three minutes go by in a blink of an eye.
The little devils on the left wing were immediately violently attacked.
The artillery seemed to be free of charge, pouring towards the Japanese on the left flank, and under Zhang Long's order, various ministries launched several more feint attacks.
I want to give the little devils the illusion that they want to break out from the left-wing position.
The Japanese soldiers on the left also thought the same way.
The Japanese soldiers in the position saw that the left-wing position was suddenly attacked hard, and there were signs that it was in danger and might collapse at any time.
However, when the right-wing position saw the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, there was no movement.
They immediately believed that the Eighth Route Army wanted to concentrate its forces on one point, and immediately began to mobilize troops from the right-wing position in order to strengthen the defense of the left-wing position.
The Japanese soldiers in the defense line were only engaged in defensive work to block the Eighth Route Army's advance. They had not received any offensive orders for the time being, so they could only conduct passive defense.
They could not take advantage of the lack of troops on the Eighth Route Army's right wing to launch a charge, so they could only mobilize troops from the right wing to strengthen the defense of the left wing troops.
Seeing this, Ding Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
The little Jaap was indeed fooled. Before the Japs could react, Ding Wei immediately led his troops, with the assistance of the Third Company, to launch a fierce attack on the Japs' right-wing position.
The Fourth Company's attack was not tentative at all, and the attack was the ultimate move.
Under the leadership of Ding Wei, the fourth company directly used grenades and mortars to clear the way.
The fierce artillery fire was like rain, pouring towards the palm-sized position on the right wing.
Deafening explosions sounded one after another, the ground seemed to tremble twice, and the right wing position was instantly blown into a sea of flames.
The little Japs in the right-wing defense line were blown to pieces in an instant, with their limbs and arms flying everywhere.
The little Japs in the position had no time to react and could not launch an effective counterattack. Under the suppression of artillery, they could only shoot at the opposite side randomly.
Screams and explosions were mixed on the battlefield.
They had no idea that the Eighth Route Army on the right wing would suddenly launch an attack and dare to charge against them.
Just when they wanted to request support from the left-wing position, the left-wing position could not escape the battle in a short time.
Zhang Long strictly obeyed Ding Wei's order and kept the Japs soldiers on the left wing in place, delaying the Japs who wanted to support them.
At this moment, the Japanese soldiers on this line of defense also knew that they had fallen into the trap.
The Eighth Route Army suddenly slowed down the right wing and strengthened the attack of the left wing troops, in order to attract their troops and better attack from the right wing.
But there was also a Japanese heavy machine gun in the position, trying desperately to suppress their attack.
Immediately, several soldiers fell down after being shot several times.
"Hold!"
"You little son of a bitch!"
Ding Wei cursed angrily, then took out a grenade from his waist and swung it hard.
"Comrades, charge with me and kill!"
Ding Wei took the lead, holding a gun and rushing to the front.
Such a brave fighting method greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers.
This American hand grenade immediately drew a beautiful arc in mid-air and flew towards a heavy machine gun position.
Immediately, there was a boom and explosion.
The grenade exploded instantly, bursting into a red fire, and the scattered fragments flew everywhere like a goddess scattering flowers, knocking down many Japanese soldiers.
The Japs machine gunner, who was grinning and holding a heavy machine gun, pouring bullets down below, let out a shrill scream and was thrown away.
The barrel of the heavy machine gun was also bent by the shock wave of the explosion.
The firepower of the right-wing position suddenly weakened a lot. Taking advantage of the lack of Japanese firepower, Ding Wei increased the offensive firepower, suppressing the Japanese and unable to raise their heads.
In less than ten minutes, Ding Wei led his troops to tear a gap from the right wing and successfully entered the Cuilong Mountain area.
Sleeping Dragon Mountain.
Kong Jiebu.
The Japanese continued to shrink the encirclement, and Kong Jie and the others were also in danger. They occupied a small area and began their final counterattack.
And his troop strength has also been reduced sharply. The company that originally had hundreds of people now has only a dozen people left, and almost every one of them is injured.
Most of the soldiers were sacrificed by the Japanese artillery. Kong Jie and the others simply suffered from insufficient artillery and insufficient ammunition.
They had used up the ammunition they carried long ago, and the bullets they were using now were all taken from the corpses of the Japanese for the final counterattack.
Kong Jie lay behind the bunker, breathing heavily.
There was a bullet hole in his left arm, which was injured by three large bullets. The bullet penetrated the arm directly, leaving a bloody hole.
Ding Wei was also lucky. If the bullet had been cheaper by a slap to the right, Kong Jie might have been reimbursed on the spot.
Due to the injury, Kong Jie's physical strength was rapidly lost. Even when he breathed, he could feel the excruciating pain. It was difficult to lift the gun, and his face was a little pale.
In this extreme battlefield, Kong Jie couldn't say whether he had good luck or bad luck.
The other dozen or so soldiers were just like him, all recovering their strength.
They had just successfully repelled a Japanese attack, and all the ammunition they had obtained had been used up.
If they fight again, they can only engage in hand-to-hand combat.
But with these wounded soldiers now, hand-to-hand combat might just be a dream. The Japanese seemed to realize that they were unable to fight back, and began to want to capture them alive.
"Captain, the soldiers are out of bullets," said the first battalion commander.
Kong Jie's eyes flashed with darkness, and he nodded feebly.
He only felt guilty. If it hadn't been for his fault, the loss of the troops would not have been so great.
His radio station had been destroyed in the previous bombings, and the correspondent died on the spot to protect the radio station.
As for reinforcements, Kong Jie no longer counted on them.
He knew with his toes that something must have gone wrong along the way. With the little possessions he had brought, the soldiers had been well-trained and fought bravely until now.
Since the little devil could think of laying this trap, he must have thought of preventing them from supporting them.
Looking at the soldiers around him, Kong Jie smiled and said, "Come on, everyone come around."
After hearing this, the soldiers sat down around Kong Jie.
Kong Jie grinned, pulled a sack, raised it with his right hand, and three explosive packets fell out.
Seeing this, the soldiers couldn't help but laugh. They knew exactly what Kong Jie meant.
"Comrades, are you afraid?" Kong Jie's tone sounded weak because of his injuries.
"Not afraid." The remaining soldiers shook their heads.
"Come on, battalion commander, share them all. There just happen to be three explosive packets here." Kong Jie insisted while inhaling.
"I originally wanted to treat those puppet soldiers to eat, but I didn't expect to keep it for myself in the end." Kong Jie laughed at himself.
After finishing his sentence, Kong Jie coughed a few more times.
"Captain, please rest and stop talking." The first battalion commander said, "I will make arrangements."
The battalion commander divided the remaining soldiers into three groups, each group containing an explosive pack.
"Comrades, don't be afraid. When the Japanese attack begins, let's pull the fuse together. The pain will be over after a while." The battalion commander said with a smile.
"Besides, if we go on the road together, we won't be lonely on the road. At least we have a companion. All the comrades from the first battalion are waiting for us on the road."
"Don't be afraid, battalion commander, we are not afraid." The soldiers said one after another.
Outside the position.
The gunfire rang out again.
There were scattered gunshots, and it was obvious that this was a tentative attack to test the state of the new second regiment.
"The devil is coming!"
Kong Jie struggled to get up and said: "Give me the explosive pack, you little son of a bitch, you want to capture me alive in the next life!"
After saying this, Kong Jie grinned in pain, and his lips began to crack due to lack of water.
A battalion commander hurriedly handed the explosive package to Kong Jie.
Kong Jie held the explosive bag in his arms and waited for the Japanese to come up.
suddenly.
The gunshots became a little more rapid, mixed with several violent explosions, and there seemed to be vague screams of Japanese soldiers.
Um?
Kong Jie suddenly felt that something was wrong.
This gunshot?
"Commander, commander, something seems to be wrong." The battalion commander suddenly said.
"Help me up!" Kong Jie said hurriedly: "Hurry!"
With that said, Kong Jie struggled to stand up, and a battalion commander helped Kong Jie.
Kong Jie was half-kneeling on the ground, looking down with a telescope, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
Because he suddenly saw that the Japanese soldiers who were surrounding them were being attacked, and now they were hastily turning back to fight back.
"Reinforcements, commander, reinforcements are coming!" the first battalion commander said excitedly.
Kong Jie's eyes widened and he kept looking down.
Looking at the troops fighting with the Japs below, Kong Jie's head was full of questions. The new regiment didn't have these people. Which troops came to support them?
Suddenly, Kong Jie spotted a familiar figure among the crowd below.
"Old Ding, it's Ding Wei!" Kong Jie said in surprise.
After saying one sentence and touching the wound again, Kong Jie couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Although he grimaced in pain, Kong Jie was extremely excited inside.
Not only was there the surprise of surviving a desperate situation, but there was also the excitement of seeing old comrades again.
"Brothers, kill me, let's fight quickly!" Ding Wei held a machine gun and pulled the trigger on several Japanese soldiers who were charging towards him, knocking them to the ground.
The four batteries of artillery fire were fierce and soon defeated this group of Japanese soldiers.
These little devils never expected that they would be attacked in the back.
When they were being beaten, their attention was all on Kong Jie. They were thinking about how to capture this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers alive. In their haste, they had no time to react, and a dozen of them were knocked down immediately.
By the time they reacted, Ding Wei had already led his troops to catch up.
Ding Wei didn't give the Japanese any chance to react and vented his anger on the Japanese soldiers in front of him.
After being blocked by the Japs for a long time, Ding Wei completely regarded these little Japs as a punching bag and was not stingy with the bullets in his hands.
All the light and heavy machine guns were deployed, but the firepower was insufficient. Grenades and mortars came to make up for it. The battlefield was filled with gunfire.
In just a few moments, all these devils were killed.
Ding Wei looked around and found that there were the most corpses lying somewhere. He immediately concluded that Kong Jie had set up a position there and ran towards it.
"Lao Kong, Lao Kong!" Ding Wei shouted as he walked: "Are you alive? I'm here to save you!"
"Take a breath while you're alive!" Ding Wei said loudly.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Ding Wei felt a little panicked, fearing that he would see a corpse that looked the same as Kong Jie.
"Captain Ding, we are here!" A battalion commander waved excitedly.
Kong Jie also waved his hand.
"Lao Kong!"
Seeing this, Ding Wei ran towards their location excitedly.
"Old Ding, Old Ding..." Kong Jie used his last bit of strength to say, "I thought you wouldn't come."
After saying that, Kong Jie's vision went dark and he fainted on the spot.
"Captain, commander." The remaining soldiers of the battalion saw this and spoke excitedly.
Ding Wei hurriedly paused and checked Kong Jie's body. He was relieved when he found that he was just overtired after being injured.
"Stop screaming, Kong Jie is fine!" Ding Wei said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, they were relieved.
Ding Wei immediately arranged for the hygienist who followed him to treat Kong Jie's wounds and put him on a stretcher.
"Why are it just you, Li Yunlong and the others?" Ding Wei looked around and found no trace of Li Yunlong, so he asked.
"Captain Li is still inside," said the first battalion commander.
Hearing this, Ding Wei's heart sank.
"You guys rest here, I'll go rescue Li Yunlong and the others!" Ding Wei raised his voice and said harshly: "Everyone in the battalion is required, and one company is left to take care of the wounded.
The rest continue to attack and save the new group!"
