"Squadron Captain, the enemy seems to have noticed our ambush. The Japs in the woods have begun to retreat!"
On the tallest pine tree in the entire forest, Yao Tianhua, the captain of the first detachment of the first special operations squadron of the Huya Special Operations Brigade, was hiding among the branches and leaves, observing the movement below while communicating with his team members through the walkie-talkie!
Although pocket reconnaissance aircraft can be used to detect the movements of large Japanese troops, they cannot be so detailed. Therefore, the situation in the woods can only rely on the intelligence provided by the team members, summarize and make judgments, and then determine countermeasures.
Several pocket reconnaissance aircraft were invented by a technician from the arsenal. They are powered by lithium-hydrogen button batteries and fly almost silently. They are really good tools for peeping, reconnaissance, and surveillance. Of course, the disadvantage is that the coverage area is only a few square kilometers.
, and the battery life is relatively weak!
Yao Tianhua was the overall person in charge of this jungle sniper attack, and all fifty special operations team members were under his command. Their mission was to prevent any Japanese soldiers who entered the jungle from getting out.
If it is a frontal battle, this task may be difficult to complete. Fifty people, even if they are experienced special warfare elites, can easily defeat nearly 500 enemies. It is almost impossible to annihilate them all!
But in this jungle, it's different. Since the Japanese soldiers entered the jungle, the number of people who have fallen under the sniper crossbows of the team members has reached nearly two hundred, and almost everyone has knocked down three or four Japanese soldiers.
However, this is obviously not enough. There are nearly 300 Japanese soldiers in the jungle. If they rush outside desperately, the dense trees will become the biggest obstacle to the team members' sniping!
"Yao Tianhua, you let the team members at the edge of the jungle sniper every Japanese soldier who comes in to deliver messages and cut off their contact with the outside world. The wolf hunting operation has started early. The team members are allowed to move freely. Now they are no longer afraid of exposing their targets!"
Behind the jungle, on a high ground, Feng Changyuan, the captain of the 1st Special Operations Squadron, thought for a moment, then issued an order and began an operation to annihilate the Japanese troops in the jungle!
Operation Wolf Hunt was the code name Luo Xiao gave to this operation to stop the Japanese army. In his eyes, the Japanese soldiers were like wolves: ruthless, greedy, cunning, and very fierce, so he had to fight them like wolves.
Show no mercy.
"clear!"
After finishing the call with the squadron leader Feng Yuanyuan, Yao Tianhua immediately opened the channel with the team members and shouted coldly, "Cut off the connection between the Japanese troops inside and outside, and the wolf hunting operation begins!"
As this order was issued, the sniper crossbows in the hands of several special operations team members hidden at the edge of the woods aimed at the target early, and finally pulled the trigger. The crossbow arrows made of special alloys were silently shot from the crossbows.
, passed lightly between the trees, and then embedded itself in the vital part of the target Japanese army.
In a matter of seconds, more than a dozen Japanese signal soldiers who were ordered to come in to convey the instructions fell in the forest less than ten meters from the edge of the forest, never being able to send the message to those who still did not know that they were in danger.
into the hands of Japanese soldiers on the border.
After confirming that the target was killed, several special operations team members reported the situation to Yao Tianhua, and then saw a red signal flare suddenly rising from the woods, floating in the sky, and then slowly falling!
--puff--!
A crossbow arrow polished into dark gray was shot from behind the tree, knocking down the Japanese soldier who was looking left and right. Then another Japanese soldier had his throat cut with a dagger, and his body fell limply next to the big tree.
"Yeah yeah!"
The remaining Japanese troops seemed to sense something was wrong. They fired wildly over and over again while running aimlessly in the jungle, bumping into each other like headless flies.
The special forces members started to kill them from their respective hiding places. Some people were so excited that they jumped out and fired bursts of automatic rifles. The Japanese soldiers were beaten and turned upside down, crying and howling, and they hurriedly ran for their lives.
The woods were in chaos, with gunshots, shouts, and screams happening one after another. It was very lively!
Outside the woods, Lieutenant Colonel Uraharu Ogawara stared at the woods with a serious face. At this time, the woods were boiling and no longer the dead silence they had been at the beginning.
He could tell from the gunshots that there were not only the 38 rifles unique to the Japanese army, but also a very strange gunshot that sounded like the sound of an automatic weapon.
"Strange, why does the gunshot sound of this weapon seem so unfamiliar?" Ogawara Uraharu's brain was spinning rapidly, thinking.
When he was a student at the Japanese Army Military Academy, the school imported a batch of automatic rifles from Germany. He was lucky enough to have close contact with them and even test-fired them!
The powerful firepower of automatic rifles impressed him deeply and made him understand that automatic weapons would be the development trend in the future. For this reason, he wrote to the school several times to explain his views, but in the end no one came to him.
Pay attention!
Now, the information he heard from the gunfire told him that this team might not be so easy to deal with!
"Captain, please send someone in to inform those soldiers!" A squadron leader couldn't bear the fact that his men were being slaughtered inside, so he stepped forward and suggested, "Otherwise, they will all die in the hands of the Chinese!"
"Baga, if we send people in now, we are simply going to die. The soldiers inside are already dead!" Ogawara Uraharu's voice was very cold, but it was true!
From the increasingly sparse gunfire, it is easy to tell that the Japanese soldiers from the two squadrons of the First Battalion of the Independent Guard are probably already in danger, and there is no possibility of escaping!
"Then what should we do now, captain!" Several squadron leaders were so anxious that they watched their soldiers being slaughtered, but they couldn't do anything. The feeling almost drove them crazy.
Ogawara Uraharu snorted coldly, and a lingering cold light flashed in his eyes. He paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and then suddenly said, "Order, the artillery unit and each mortar squadron to bombard with all their strength."
In the woods, half of the ammunition is used up!"
"What?!"
Several squadron leaders were shocked. They did not expect that the captain would issue such an order, even ignoring the soldiers who were fighting in the jungle, and wanted them to die together.
"Captain, you can't do this. There are still our soldiers inside. You are committing a crime!"
"You are so confused. This is the best way to let them die well. Otherwise, they will be killed one by one by the Chinese soldiers. Since they have to die no matter what, let them die with honor and let them prosper as the Yamato nation.
A dedicated hero!" Uraharu Ogawara looked solemn, and it was clear that he had really made up his mind and would not accept the advice of the people below.
Several squadron leaders stopped talking because what Lieutenant Colonel Ogawara Uraharu said made sense!
