On the mountain road, several special operations team members used the cover of rocks on the roadside to shoot with automatic rifles, blocking a group of Japanese cavalry on the opposite side, hoping to slow down their advance.
After the fierce battle just now, there are now seven of the ten special forces members left, and all of them are injured. This is because the Japanese cavalry did not carry heavy weapons, so the damage caused was limited.
However, they still resisted vigorously, fought and retreated, and used the terrain to block the enemy bit by bit.
"Charge over, don't be stopped by them." The captain of the Japanese Cavalry was a major. He raised his saber and shouted loudly, directing the cavalry to try to rush through the defensive position composed of several special forces members.
Unfortunately, the automatic rifles were too powerful. Coupled with the machine guns and sniper rifles, the cavalry charged several times but were beaten back. Instead, they lost more than twenty cavalrymen.
There were more than 300 cavalrymen in the Japanese cavalry, which were divided into two groups. One group attacked from the west gate and the other group attacked from the south gate, preparing to cut off the opponent's retreat and encircle and annihilate the opponent outside the village.
More than a hundred cavalrymen were blocked by a few people for fifteen minutes. This made the Japanese cavalry captain quite angry. He shouted sternly, "Grenade projection."
The ten cavalrymen took out the grenades, then rode forward, increasing their speed, and rushed straight towards the special operations team members on the hillside.
"Iron Sword, kill them, don't let them get close." An old special operations team member who was in charge of commanding the entire combat group on the hillside shouted. He knew the opponent's intentions.
The sniper rifle rang out, and then one of the Japanese cavalry fell down. The remaining Japanese cavalry did not pause at all, but still rushed forward without fear.
The sniper rifle sounded, and the second Japanese cavalryman fell off his horse, followed closely by the third and fourth cavalrymen.
But when the sniper shot down the fourth Japanese cavalry, the opponent's cavalry had already rushed into the effective bomb delivery range. The six Japanese cavalry straightened their bodies on horseback, then rounded their arms and threw the bombs in their hands.
grenade.
In the air, six black shadows flew across the sky and landed not too far away from the hiding place where the special operations team members were hiding. Then smoke and dust rose into the sky.
The first row of cavalry flashed past, and the second row of Japanese cavalry that followed them also came closer and threw out the grenades in their hands.
After the smoke and dust raised by the explosion of more than a dozen grenades, the sight of the special operations team members was affected, and the flying shrapnel forced them to bend down and temporarily stop shooting.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, dozens of war horses rushed through the road at the foot of the hill where the special operations team members were standing like arrows, and rushed into the distance.
The eyes of several special forces members were red, but there was nothing they could do now. There was nothing they could do to stop the Japanese from rushing over.
"Grandma, even if we all die here, we can't let the other Japs rush past." The old special operations team member led by Zheng Xiao came through time together. He roared angrily, raised his automatic rifle and fired wildly at the Japs cavalry.
.
The special operations team members were all crazy. They didn't even care about their own safety. They just tried their best to rain bullets on the enemy, making it difficult for the Japanese soldiers behind to advance.
The Japanese cavalry captain also made a fuss. He shouted loudly, got off his horse first, and took off his carbine from behind. "The first cavalry team stayed behind to hold off these opponents. The remaining cavalry team caught up with the team in front and pursued them together."
Fleeing enemies."
A small group of Japanese soldiers dismounted, rushed behind the cover with carbines, and started shooting at the special forces members. At this time, the special forces members had to divert some of their energy to resist their attacks, and the resistance to the Japanese cavalry was weak.
Come down.
"Charge over, hurry up, hurry up." The remaining Japanese cavalry team shouted, rushing forward on horseback, not caring that they were exposed to the opponent's shooting range, and tried to pass through the hill guarded by the special operations team as quickly as possible.
ahead.
The special forces team members turned their guns and shot seven or eight Japanese cavalrymen off their horses, but more Japanese cavalrymen had already rushed over and chased the Japanese cavalrymen who were leaving ahead.
Just when the special operations team members were about to explode, the intercom rang. They immediately turned on the switch and connected the call, "Captain, I am the sixth combat group."
"Withdraw the blockade immediately and rush to the predetermined location on No. 3 to join other troops." Over the intercom, Zheng Xiao said in a deep voice, "Your mission has been successfully completed. You have done a good job."
These words made the old special forces member almost burst into tears. He raised his hand and wiped his cheek covered in dirt and blood, and said, "Yes, captain, let's retreat."
The walkie-talkie hung up, and the old special forces member shouted to the five special operations members who were still alive around him, "The captain ordered, retreat."
After hearing the news, the special operations team members covered each other and retreated. They quickly climbed over the hill and disappeared behind it.
The Japanese cavalry had no intention of pursuing them, because the hills were not conducive to cavalry movement, and behind the hills were patches of woods. As long as they burrowed into them, they would lose sight of them, and there was no point in pursuing them.
What's more, they still have a more important task, which is to chase down the enemies who have broken out of the village.
For some reason, the order they received was to pursue the enemies who broke out from the village at all costs and to annihilate everyone. This order was not even given by their superior commander, but by the Kwantung Army headquarters.
After participating in so many battles, this was the first time the cavalry captain encountered such a thing. It really made him feel strange and couldn't figure out the reason behind it.
However, he didn't have time to think about those things now, because the people he was blocking had withdrawn, and he wanted to lead the cavalry troops to the village as soon as possible.
"Hurry up, speed up and rush to the village." The Japanese cavalry captain shouted as he got on his horse and led the cavalry squad towards the distance.
However, they were blocked by the special forces and were delayed for about fifteen minutes before the hill. Although this period of time usually does not seem to be long, it played a very important role at this time, which allowed Zheng Xiao to have
Time to come up with solutions.
It was in these fifteen minutes that Zheng Xiao directed a wonderful escape scene.
