The Japanese squadron leader was soon attracted by a burst of chaotic sounds. Following the sound, he saw a figure flashing past his eyes and into the alley next to him.
Um?
"Tubalu!"
The Japanese squadron leader reacted suddenly, pointed out a few Japanese soldiers, and said: "You guys, hurry up and catch them!"
After getting this guy's order, several Japanese soldiers immediately chased him in the direction where the figure disappeared with their guns drawn.
But as soon as he issued this order, he immediately regretted it. The ground was bombed into craters, which must have been a trap such as a mine.
Unfortunately, by the time he reacted, it was already too late.
The few Japanese soldiers who had just ran out felt empty under their feet before they had gone a few meters away.
This was followed by several more explosions, knocking them to the ground.
The power of the landmines was deliberately lowered, so that the landmines can fully play their intended role here. They do not kill, only injure, and drag down the little devil's logistics work.
Seeing those men who had been blown away, the squadron leader's face was ashen and his lungs were about to explode. It was obvious that he had fallen into another trap.
How many traps have these damn Tubal Roads laid here? The Japanese squadron leader couldn't help but think about it.
The ground was almost blown to pieces, but it turned out there were still traps.
Stimulated by this, the Japanese squadron leader did not dare to act rashly for a while.
Just when I was thinking about asking the captain for instructions to leave a squadron of warriors to guard the village while the rest of the imperial army took a detour.
There seemed to be some movement in the yard not far from him.
A few Japanese soldiers wanted to take a look at the situation, but now they learned the lesson and stepped through the hole in the ground.
In their opinion, since there is a pit in the ground, it means that the trap there has been destroyed, and that area will be very safe.
It is roughly equivalent to the fact that cannonballs will not fall in the same pit.
However, they take it too much for granted.
A small team can deal with it, and a large team of Japanese soldiers is no problem for the ambush army.
Using the terrain of the village as cover, the ambush army once again launched an attack on the ambush army. Grenades, light and heavy machine guns seemed to be free of charge, and they desperately greeted the Japanese soldiers.
This group of Japanese soldiers stood relatively densely, and because they were on the road to the entrance and exit, more than half of the Japanese soldiers fell in one attack.
This Japanese squadron leader was actually smart. The moment he heard the sound of gunshots, he immediately lowered his body and ran behind the soldiers around him.
The next moment, a barrage of bullets hit those soldiers.
It seems that this Japanese squadron leader has encountered this kind of thing frequently. When he heard the sound of gunshots, he immediately rubbed oil on the soles of his feet.
The Japanese squadron leader, who had always been passive, did not expect that things would suddenly become like this.
Seeing the soldier who had blocked his body shield and died, the guy was so frightened that he didn't dare to look back.
The Japanese squadron leader kept his body as low as possible and directed his troops to counterattack on the spot to suppress the firepower of the ambushes. However, he tried desperately to run back.
Just as the little devil squadron leader was retreating back, his feet suddenly fell into the air, followed by another explosion.
A grenade exploded, knocking away several Japanese soldiers at the center of the explosion.
"ah!"
The Japanese squadron leader let out a shrill scream, and his whole body was thrown away. He was like a dead leaf, floating in the air, hitting several soldiers before falling to the ground.
The Japanese officer clutched his thigh and was throbbing in pain on the ground. Looking at his left calf, half of it had been blown off.
"Come on, come on, protect me!" The Japanese squadron leader howled like a slaughtering pig: "Get me a medic, quickly!"
He never thought that this road had obviously been walked by people, why there were still booby traps that had not been stepped on completely.
But the reason is a bit ridiculous, because this guy ate too much.
Originally there were some booby traps left on the road to deal with Japanese motorcycles or detective team bicycles.
But his fat body and weight were just enough to trigger the booby traps buried underground.
Unlike when he wanted to kill the wounded soldiers just now, when it was his turn, this guy wanted to survive as soon as possible.
The rapid and fierce offensive in the village directly surrounded the Japanese soldiers of the squadron in the village.
Because the information they received was that the Eighth Route Army in this village was just a group of defeated soldiers, and their own regiment leader was almost killed by the chief of staff.
Moreover, this is just one of their troops, and the regiment leader has been dismissed from his post, leaving him unable to command the battle at all.
Having said that, the Tubal Road in front of us should be a group of soft persimmons, and should be allowed to be manipulated by the imperial army.
But now, various circumstances show that this place is not only a group of soft persimmons, but also a group of fierce tigers.
Just one large group of imperial troops would not be able to pass through here smoothly, let alone a trap that has been laid out in advance.
They didn't know how many soldiers the Eighth Route Army had hidden here, and the Imperial Army had no place that could be used as a bunker. How could they fight this battle?
Within the village.
The Japanese squadron leader was crawling out of the village like a dog. This guy was also smart and kept crawling into the crowd.
Even if a stray bullet hit him, it did not stop his determination to crawl out.
Outside the village.
Hearing the commotion in the village, Captain Noda knew that the situation was not good. A squadron of soldiers entered, but still could not change the situation of the battle.
How many Tubal roads are hidden in this ghost village?
Captain Noda had a very headache.
I wanted to kill all the special agents who provided information. I originally thought this was a good opportunity to make contributions and improve my qualifications.
Now it seems that, let alone making achievements, being able to smoothly merge with the rest of the troops is a problem.
And for this smooth rendezvous, it is necessary to ensure that the Noda Brigade still has combat effectiveness.
Captain Noda was thinking of various ways.
poison gas.
Before marching, he was indeed asked whether he would carry poison gas bombs, but he felt that he was nothing more than a bunch of weak persimmons, so he did not bring such weapons.
Let's talk about setting fire to the village.
The previous village was easy to burn because it had wooden houses, but the village in front of me was made of loess houses and there were no combustion aids, so the fire couldn't start at all.
Besides, evacuating is even more impossible. This is a comprehensive sweep operation to eliminate all the Tubal Road cadres who gathered for meetings.
Not to mention his brigade, the imperial troops from all over the country are now fighting, pressing towards the target location. If there is a flaw here, wouldn't it leave a loophole for the Eighth Route Army?
If the Eighth Route Army discovered this gap and chose to use this as a counterattack point, then the matter would be serious.
General Yoshio Shinozuka had been looking forward to victory for too long, and was thinking of soaring into the sky with this sweep.
Once something goes wrong, even if you don't know how to execute someone under military law, your future military career will be considered over.
It doesn't matter if you have an uncle who is a major general. Yoshio Shinozuka is a lieutenant general. If you give him eye drops at this time, he will not care whose nephew you are.
Thinking of this, Captain Noda had no choice. He was not in the mood at this time, so he would use some extravagant tactics to let the troops go over and die little by little.
What he thought was simple.
No matter how big a small Chinese village can be, after walking for more than ten minutes from front to back, he couldn't believe that even a large group of imperial troops could not wipe out all those Tubal roads.
In short, this guy has already taken over and is actually thinking of using the stupidest way to handle this matter.
What happened at the top of the Noda Brigade was quickly reported back to the 28th Brigade Headquarters.
Situations like this also occurred in various battlefields, and the enemy's offensive was blocked to varying degrees.
Judging from the direction in which the Japanese troops sent troops, they mainly targeted the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment this time.
The Japanese soldiers dispatched from various places are like an unbreakable fishing net, trying to trap the troops in each base area.
But they obviously didn't expect Ding Wei, an outlier.
They wanted to drive straight in, but they didn't even have a chance to go deep. They were blocked on the outside of the base area, and there was still some danger.
Ding Wei didn't know at this moment that the little devil just wanted to clean up, so he picked two soft persimmons.
It's convenient to think that he didn't attract his troops at all, so Ding Wei is now taking advantage of the situation.
Since you kid dares to play with me, I'm not welcome either.
Under the command of Ding Wei, troops from various base areas launched an attack and drove the Japanese troops to pieces.
The domineering Japanese troops never thought that this group of Eighth Route Army troops would actually take the initiative to attack, thus shattering all the Japanese plans.
As soon as the battle started, all the Japanese were trapped.
Is this still an Eighth Route Army unit?
According to the conventional mopping up logic, they shouldn't have retreated quickly. When faced with the imperial army's mopping up, when had they ever taken the initiative to send troops?
Even though the Eighth Route Army has developed very well, they only regard the 28th Brigade as their opponent and do not overestimate the combat effectiveness of the other units.
After a lot of back and forth, all the Japanese troops were scattered. After the Eighth Route Army took the initiative to attack, they did not hesitate to fight and only divided the Japanese troops.
Fighting back and forth, the number of Japanese troops is increasing, but when broken down, each army only has one squadron or two squadrons of soldiers at most.
The Japanese troops were scattered. The soldiers who had not eaten meat for a long time could not miss this opportunity and naturally looked for opportunities to fight back.
If you can bite the devil once, you have to bite them a second time until you swallow them completely.
The rise of various tribes killings does not care about the Japanese at all. As long as they retreat, they will actively chase them. Once they start attacking, they will retreat and fly kites with them.
The Japanese troops complained endlessly about being tricked. They couldn't catch up or retreat. They could only yell and curse while fighting the Eighth Route Army.
Ding Wei's reversal directly destroyed the Japanese army's encirclement plan.
The peripheral troops were fighting fiercely, and some troops even took the initiative and began to attack Japanese strongholds, as well as gun towers and other military buildings in enemy-occupied areas.
More troops began to destroy Japanese railways and highways.
The original encircling troops were counterattacked by the Eighth Route Army. To describe it in one sentence, it was chaos, and it became increasingly chaotic.
No matter how large the number of Japanese and puppet troops is, they cannot withstand Ding Wei's style of play.
Taiyuan, First Army Headquarters.
Yoshio Shinozuka's face was livid. The battle started fine, and all good news came from him.
For example, they occupied the Eighth Route Army base area and destroyed many villages. The Eighth Route Army was chased like rabbits.
But not long after, the results of the battle suddenly took a turn for the worse, and it was the Imperial Army that was at a disadvantage.
Especially the tactic they formulated to seize the opportunity to attack the east and attack the west. They wanted to attract the main force of the 28th Brigade, but Ding Wei didn't accept the move at all.
They thought that the Eighth Route Army would defend its position, but who would have thought that the Eighth Route Army would actually dare to take the initiative and launch an attack on their main force.
Ryousuke Kamiya frowned, and for the first time he realized how difficult this guy Ding Wei was.
Because he doesn't know how to play his cards according to common sense.
If you follow the thinking of other troops, they will definitely find ways to avoid the battle as much as possible, or they will stick to the outer positions.
"Kamiya-kun, I need an explanation!" Yoshio Shinozuka said harshly.
Ryosuke Kamiya looked at Yoshio Shinozuka.
"Give me an explanation why the tactics you formulated have no effect at all. We didn't wait for the 28th Brigade, but Tubal Road from other base areas!"
Yoshio Shinozuka was so angry that he said: "Tell me why the battle is different from what we deduced, and why you said that the 28th Brigade will take the initiative to support!
You are not saying that the fighting will of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment has been defeated by you, but why haven’t the Imperial Army taken advantage of them at all?”
Yoshio Shinozuka stood up angrily and asked Ryosuke Kamiya.
"Your Excellency General, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. You should understand this." Kamiya Ryousuke said without being humble or overbearing.
"The enemy did not fight according to the way we rehearsed, which shows that Ding Wei is very cunning. He seemed to have sensed something, so he did not take the attack."
"?"
A question slowly popped up on Shinozuka Yoshio's head: "Don't you have any backup plan?"
"Backup plan?" Ryosuke Kamiya asked.
"Yes, no tactics will be perfect, but that's no reason to turn the battlefield into a mess!" Yoshio Shinozuka said harshly.
"Do you know what these guys want to do? They are actually trying to attack the county. These damn guys are so courageous!"
"Did they succeed?" Ryousuke Kamiya asked.
"This..." Yoshio Shinozuka was stunned and said: "It doesn't seem to be the case. They are all blocked outside the defense line."
"That's right, Commander." Ryosuke Kamiya said: "It is precisely because we built the defense line in advance, although it has not yet been completed.
But it is enough to deal with a battle of this level. The Eighth Route Army’s desire to attack the county town is just a wishful thinking, and it is just to attract troops from the Imperial Army!”
"From what you say, do you seem to have any way to deal with it?" Yoshio Shinozuka asked.
"Your Excellency, Commander, we should not be led by the Eighth Route Army now." Ryosuke Kamiya said: "They took the initiative to attack us and tore our main force into pieces.
The purpose is to contain our troops so that we can only focus on them. We should not waste time on this kind of thing."
"Then what do you think the Imperial Army should do now?" Yoshio Shinozuka asked: "Do you still think that the 28th Brigade will take the initiative to attack? Do we still have a chance?"
"Natural!" Godly Turtle Ryousuke said in a deep voice: "We should not care about the Eighth Route Army at the moment, we only need to complete our mission.
Now we should concentrate all the ministries and assemble the troops. No matter what the Eighth Route Army wants to do on the way, we don't have to pay attention to it.
As long as we ignore the Eighth Route Army troops along the way, no matter what they do, we don’t have to pay attention to them!"
Speaking of this, Ryosuke Kamiya raised his fist, shook it hard, and said: "We should concentrate our strength on one point, and then launch a fatal blow to the Eighth Route Army!"
