The Japanese team leader who followed Kazuo Miyata on the mission this time was also carefully selected. He had very rich combat experience and made a judgment in only a short period of time.
Their ambush location was too close to the 56th Army defense zone.
Of course, there is no way around this, because this is the only place suitable for an ambush, and it is the only way for the Chinese to return to Jining. Otherwise, they would never risk setting up an ambush in such a dangerous location.
And if they miss a hit, they should evacuate quickly. But there is still an imperial army in the hands of the Chinese.
At that time, there were indeed people targeting their colleague. But unfortunately, the first one to shoot was the Japanese who killed the front sentry.
The purpose of the Japanese was to prevent the Chinese from crossing the mountain ridge. Once the Chinese crossed the mountain ridge, they would have no chance to do anything again. This was related to their ambush location.
Their ambush location was southeast of Lao Snor and others, on the other side of the mountain road to the east of Lao Snor's marching woods, on a hillside about 300 to 350 meters away, not a mountain ridge.
Because there were too many obstructions on the mountain ridge, it was not suitable for sniping. Therefore, they could only use wormwood and shrubs as cover, and use the local area on the west slope to intercept and snipe Lao Shou and others.
But precisely because of this, their range of fire was also very limited, and they were forced to kill the sentry at the front and force Lao Snor and other Chinese troops back.
The purpose is that if the assassination attempt is unsuccessful, they will have a second chance to assassinate him. Otherwise, once Lao Shou and others cross this ridge, they will no longer have the opportunity to assassinate him.
Therefore, before shooting his colleagues, the leading soldier of the secret service battalion was killed first, and the assassination of the two Japanese soldiers followed immediately.
However, something happened at that time. One of the Japs was successfully assassinated, but the other Japs was blocked by the soldiers beside him. Then the Japs were so frightened that they sat limply on the ground, causing them to miss the assassination.
Therefore, it is precisely because of this that they are now in an embarrassing situation where they are unable to retreat immediately.
The mission assigned by Captain Sakata must be completed, and each of them must be determined to die. In other words, even if the mission fails, they cannot fall into the hands of the Chinese alive.
In other words, if any of them were injured and unable to walk, their companions would give them a shot and send them to serve His Majesty the Emperor.
"The first group conducts a feint attack, and the second group searches for and kills the target. Remember, none of us can fall into the hands of the Chinese alive. Understand?"
"Hi!"
The Japs squad leader ordered that the remaining twelve Japs, including Miyata Kazuo, be divided into two groups. They quickly detoured from both sides of the mountain. One group was responsible for feigning attacks, and the other group was responsible for sniping the target.
Naturally, the Japanese's unusual movements could not escape Lao Snoring's eyes.
Even the machine gunners used their machine guns to shoot at the enemy when they saw the Japanese jumping up.
But these little devils were extremely fast. After getting up, they ran quickly without any hesitation, and the bullets of the machine gunners of the secret service battalion could only chase after the little devils.
The machine gunner seriously suspected that the little devil was the reincarnation of a rabbit. He ran so fast that even bullets could not catch up with him.
After emptying the magazine, the machine gunner quickly reloaded, but by this time, the little Japanese had already run away without a trace.
The machine gunner shouted: "The camp, the little devil has disappeared."
Lao Snoring thought for a moment and said, "The little Japs are not gone, but they are dividing their troops into two groups to outflank us.
The exact number of enemies is unknown. Brothers, please be alert. Don't get together, lest you be taken down by one group.
The first squad is in charge of the right wing, the second squad is in charge of the left wing, and the third squad is following me for support, and everyone is dispersed."
"yes!"
The soldiers responded and then moved quickly, scattering throughout the forest in a Zigzag pattern.
However, at this moment, a gunshot suddenly sounded. A soldier was shot in the left shoulder and flew backwards.
Lao Snoring held a sniper rifle and quickly searched for traces of the opponent. But he only knew that the opponent's gun was fired from their southeast direction, but he did not know the specific location.
"Grandma, what are the origins of these little devils?"
Lao Snoring was surprised, but he did not relax his vigilance at all. However, at this moment, there was another explosion sound suddenly from a corner of the forest in the southeast. A grenade was thrown into the forest and exploded.
A soldier three or four meters away from the center of the explosion was blown away by the explosion of the grenade.
"Grandma's grenade service, play grenade with me, I am your ancestor."
Lao Snoring shouted angrily, and the whole squad on the east side of the forest took out grenades, pulled the safety tab, knocked them on the tree, and threw them all out.
The wormwood outside the forest was suddenly like a pot exploding.
The two machine gunners of the first squad took the opportunity to stand up, holding machine guns and shooting into the grass.
At this time, no matter how many Japs there are, this wave of immortals will be able to peel off a layer of their skin.
Sure enough, the three Japs were blown out by grenades, and then all of them were beaten into pieces by machine guns.
However, at this moment, a bullet came without warning and hit a machine gunner of the first squadron.
Lao Shou took this opportunity to discover the Japanese sniper hiding in a tree two hundred meters away in the southeast, and shot him in the chest and knocked him down from the tree.
But at the same time, there was another fierce exchange of fire from the northeast, and during the exchange of fire, a Japanese soldier with grenades strapped all over his body rushed towards the second squad.
The Japanese was shot seven or eight times, but he survived and roared like a madman.
When Lao Shou saw this, he immediately turned his gun and aimed at the Japs head.
But at the same time, a Japanese sniper suddenly appeared from a position fifty meters behind the Japanese soldier and aimed at Lao Snoring.
At this time, there is a whole class of comrades on one side, and personal life and death on the other.
Lao Snoring chose his comrades without hesitation.
boom!
The gunshot rang out, and the Japanese who carried out the suicide attack was shot in the head. He could no longer move and his body fell slowly.
But at the same time, the Japanese sniper also opened fire.
The bullet crossed a distance of two hundred meters and disappeared in a flash!
Lao Shou knew that he could not escape, so he decided to die.
But what he never expected was that just when he thought he was going to die, the bullet shot through the chest of the Japanese man tied to the tree with a pop.
"grass!"
Only then did Lao Snoring realize that the other party was not here to fight him, but to assassinate the captured Japanese.
"Grandma, catch them, don't let any of them escape."
Lao Snoring roared, quickly ejected the cartridge case and pushed the bullet into the gun chamber.
He aimed at the Japanese sniper who fired. But after the shooting, the little Japanese dwarfed and disappeared.
Lao Snoring lost his target, quickly put away his gun, and led the third squad to charge. Because during the brief exchange of fire, he had already noticed that the opponent's number was not large, and it was a complete bluff.
What's more, the tongue that was so hard to catch didn't even ask for any useful information, and he died like this. How could he explain to the group when he went back?
Of course, the most important thing is that these little devils are not ordinary and have extraordinary skills. He also wants to find out where the other party comes from.
At least he felt that these Japs were much, much stronger than those they had encountered before!
