Chapter 378: Unexpected Recruitment of Replenishment Soldiers
Under targeted bombardment by Wang Chengzhu's numerous anti-tank guns, he watched as the puppet troops hid behind civilians who were tied together with ropes, trying to use the tied-up people who were unable to escape as "shields" to wait for an opportunity to escape.
Day. Several puppet soldiers who dared to fire back took two or three rounds of polymer penetrating bullets and fell to the ground not knowing whether they were alive or dead, which further reduced their morale.
The demands of the puppet army are very simple. They just need to survive and make a living. When the Japanese invaders came over, those with courage either died in battle or moved south to join other friendly forces. People who surrendered once had their psychological thresholds lowered a lot.
A big difference. Those who stay in the occupied territories and continue to serve as soldiers are mostly unskilled or family-oriented lazy men, and their monthly salary is barely enough to survive. It is not worth their efforts!
As time passed, the counterattack gunfire from the puppet army did not sound again for a long time. Wang Chengzhu stopped consciously and looked at the horse captain not far away.
Captain Ma's battlefield sensitivity was very high. He noticed that the enemy's situation was changing in his own favor, and issued an order to the soldiers beside him: "Cease fire and wait for the enemy to disrupt their position."
The verbal orders from the commander of the training team were conveyed to the left and right. The shooters holding short firearms turned off the safety, checked the remaining capacity of the magazine, and prepared for subsequent firefights. The soldiers holding the tip of the bag and stabbing the wooden gun quietly watched the ambush.
In the circle, he only waited for an order to leave the bunker and charge. Wang Chengzhu's skills improved and he did not continue to change positions to attack. He stayed at a high shooting point to monitor the enemies in the ambush circle.
Another minute passed, and the situation where both sides ceased fire changed with the private action of a puppet soldier. A certain puppet soldier who had been hiding his body with a face on the ground slowly turned his head and realized that there were no longer anti-firing guns around him.
As the sound sounded, a cricket pupa raised its upper body, used its elbows, toes and knees to support its body alternately and crawled around. As the movements became larger and larger, no ambush or supervising team shot at him. The puppet soldier who took the lead in fleeing
Courageously get up, bend your back and run away.
The power of role models is infinite, especially for a group of puppet soldiers whose main job is to make a living and serve as soldiers on the side. How much money can be divided by capturing a few civilians, and the bulk of the labor expenses must be paid to the officers who lead the team, and to manage staff at all levels.
There wasn't much money in the house. To build projects for the Japanese devils and capture civilian laborers in order to share some labor costs, it was not cost-effective to risk injuries and lives. Puppet soldiers with similar ideas were crawling from the ground.
Get up and run away.
The horse captain saw the scene not far away, but did not give an order for the soldiers to rush forward to meet the enemy. Considering that these soldiers under his command had just been recruited for a short period of time, there was no confidence in the tacit understanding of training and cooperation. The most important thing was that his own side
There is a serious shortage of firearms. It's okay to ambush and harass in the dark, but there may be adverse changes when exposed. Just wait quietly for the enemies who retreat without fighting to be alone, and catch a few unlucky guys with weak legs and feet.
An intimidating battle that came out of nowhere and ended in silence came to an end in less than half an hour.
The puppet troops who captured the civilian husband lost their escort target and ran out in a fan shape for several miles before being gathered up by the puppet company commander with nearly half of their troops. Led by a group of officers, they retreated to the county town in dejection. How could they make up a battle report to confuse it?
In the past, being an officer leading a team was a top priority.
The new soldiers of a certain company of the Jidong Column, who were originally scheduled for outdoor training, unexpectedly got a baptism of battle. No one was injured by the enemy's counterattack or stray bullets on the battlefield. It is gratifying to say that they have put down some caution against the enemy. This is very important for training.
Combat confidence is very helpful, but it is not necessarily a good thing against the Japanese invading army whose shooting training intensity is ten times higher than that of the puppet army.
When the nimble puppet troops were almost gone, Captain Ma finally ordered some veteran comrades with extensive experience in cleaning up the battlefield to take their own team of new soldiers to the battle zone to deal with the aftermath.
