my bright sword career

Chapter 501 Fighting in the Jungle

It was the 108th Cavalry Regiment who stayed in an ambush under the order of Tororo Iwai who had an encounter with Lei Xianghe's Ninth Battalion. The battalion launched a surprise attack. It is a disadvantage for infantry to meet cavalry on flat ground, and the Ninth Battalion is no exception.

Under the command of Zhongzuo Fujijiazi, more than 500 Japanese cavalry launched attacks in turn, which caused a lot of trouble for Lei Xianghe. However, unlike ordinary nationals, the Liantai militia has always been famous for its fierce firepower.

After an hour of onslaught, he saw that the opponent's firepower was too fierce, not only did not collapse immediately as expected, but caused a lot of damage to his own cavalry troops, Fuji Koko Lang Zhongzuo had no choice but to order the troops to withdraw and prepare to rush to Rendezvous with the large forces.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, we found a group of Chinese soldiers fleeing into the small woods in front. Major Kasuya Rukichi asked you whether to attack." A communication soldier came to ask for instructions.

"Yoshi, order Kasuya Rukichi to wipe them out immediately, and then rush over to join me. Remember, it would be best if you can capture the opponent's Chinese commander alive. I will personally chop off his head!" The Fuji Jiazi Lang Zhongzuo who came out immediately ordered.

Under the order of Fuji Koshiro, Major Rukichi Kasutani led more than 500 cavalry from the Second Cavalry Battalion in hot pursuit. When he came to a small forest, he saw Lieutenant Oura Takahiro leading his squadron in the woods. wandering outside.

Seeing this, Kasuya Rukichi was furious and asked, "Lieutenant Oura, why didn't you lead someone to chase them in and wipe out those Chinese people?"

"Your Excellency, Major!" Lieutenant Takahiro Oura glanced at the woods in front of him, and he couldn't see it because the branches and leaves in the woods were too lush. a bit?"

"Get off the horse, isn't it a cavalry?" Rukichi Kasuya roared angrily, "Hurry up, hurry up, His Excellency Fujiko Nakasa is waiting for our good news behind!"

What else could Oura Takahiro say? He turned around and ordered to the troops: "Tie up the horses and go into the woods to search for the enemy!"

Oura Takahiro's subordinates obediently jumped off their horses, tied the horses to the side of the road, and approached the woods with guns and knives in hand to search.

The small unit driven into the woods by the Japanese army was the No. [-] Squad of the Ninth Battalion and the Third Company, but the leader was not the squad leader of the No. [-] Squad, but Lu Xianping.

Speaking of which, in today's encounter, the third platoon led by Lu Xianping was at the rear of the entire battalion, and their task was to serve as the rear for the entire company and even the entire battalion.

It's just that the sight on the battlefield was chaotic, and everything was messed up when fighting. There was only one squad left beside him, and he lost contact with the main force. In the end, Lu Xianping could only lead the ninth squad to retreat into the small forest while fighting.

Now Lu Xianping commanded his twelve brothers to take advantage of the favorable terrain to launch a desperate stance, ready to fight the little devil to the end.

Lu Xianping called all the twelve brothers in his class to him, put a box of grenades under his feet, looked at the twelve brothers in front of him, and took out an M24 long-handled grenade from the box.

This kind of grenade has a reasonable design and great power. It was called a "high-explosive grenade" by Allied soldiers in World War II.

I saw Lu Xianping tied the grenade to his chest with a "swish", pointed to the grenade on his chest and said: "Brothers, when you are injured and can't move, you should use this, and put a little devil on your back. If anyone is captured by the Japanese , If you don’t pull this thing, the little devil will pull him to feed the wolfhounds! Everyone should tie one, hurry up!”

Thirteen hand grenades are tied to the chests of the thirteen warriors, and they will go out with their masters!
Now that the troops were trapped in the woods, Lu Xianping knew it was time to use the glorious bomb.

Jing Boran, the squad leader of Class Nine, saw his platoon leader's serious expression, and hurriedly whispered, "Platoon leader, do you want to make a living?"

"How to make a living?"

"Catch one alive, ask the troops on the other side to deploy before fighting!"

"Okay!" Lu Xianping accepted Jing Boran's suggestion, and hurriedly said to a burly soldier behind him, "Big man."

"Platoon leader, what's the matter?"

"You go with Squad Leader Jing to catch a job and come back."

"Catch alive?"

"Yes," Lu Xianping hurriedly replied in a low voice, "Don't make a fuss, catch a living little devil."

The Japanese army, who was searching the woods like a fishing net, entered the woods. Lieutenant Takahiro Oura walked at the forefront of the team.

Behind him was a machine gunner, who followed him closely with a crooked handle, sweeping forward, left, and right from time to time to strengthen his courage.

At this time, the big man was holding an MG42 and was lying behind a grave, because there were two stone monuments standing on each side, and the Japanese machine gun bullets hit them like firecrackers, and there was a "ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping" sound. Then, the sparks went straight.

"Big man" Jing Boran whispered: "Come here, come here."

Following Jing Boran's gestures, the big man saw the Japanese commander Lieutenant Takahiro Oura at a glance, and whispered excitedly to Jing Boran, "Squad leader, he is still a lieutenant."

"I'll deal with the official, you kill that machine gunner." Jing Boran thought for a while and said.

"Okay!" The big man crawled out from the gap between the two stone tablets as he said.

At this time, Takahiro Ohura had already huffed past the tomb, and Jing Boran immediately followed quietly.

And the Japanese machine gunner might have been caught by a tree branch at Ku's heel. The moment Zheng bent down to untie it, the big man jumped up and threw the M24 grenade in his hand at the boy's head. The machine gunner suddenly fell to the ground without a word.

Although the big guy is big, he is also a clever ghost. In order to observe the enemy's movement, he put the devil's hat on his head and poked his head to look. Good guy, there are Japanese soldiers searching in the forest all around.

In desperation, he quickly squatted down, took off the devil's shirt and put it on his body, grabbed the devil's blood and wiped it on his face, holding the devil's crooked handle and straightened his waist.

But what he didn't expect was that he was attacked by the Japanese army as soon as he appeared.

"Da da da da..."

The big man's idea is good, but in a hurry, he forgot one thing. In the Japanese army with an average height of only 1.5 meters, if his squadron had a macho man with a height of 1.8 meters or even 1.9 meters, he would not Maybe he didn't know, so the Japanese soldier simply shot at the big man who suddenly appeared, and there were loud gunshots all around for a while.

Jing Boran also killed Lieutenant Oura Takahiro at this time, and Zheng tried to turn around to reinforce the big man, but after the big man was swept away by the Japanese machine guns, he resolutely fired the grenade on his chest the moment the two Japanese soldiers rushed forward together.

Jing Boran was about to pounce on him, but Lu Xianping rushed over from behind and grabbed him, pushing him behind the nearby grave.

The two of them had just rolled into the grave next to them. On the left front where Jing Boran was standing just now, a grenade thrown by the Japanese army exploded, and five Japanese soldiers rushed over with the help of thick smoke.

Lu Xianping picked up the MP40 submachine gun and swept it with a stream of bullets. The two Japanese soldiers fell to the ground immediately, and the other three Japanese soldiers raised their crooked handles and [-] rifles and shot towards them. Jing Boran fell into a pool of blood.

However, although he was shot and fell to the ground, his sanity was still clear. Looking at the intestines that emerged from the wound in his lower abdomen, twisting like a green snake, Jing Boran held the wound and suppressed the severe pain and shouted loudly: "Platoon leader!" Hurry up, hurry up!" After speaking, he threw himself forward and slammed the grenade on his chest at the same time.

The three Japanese soldiers were reimbursed, and Jing Boran also died on the spot.

Lu Xianping yelled in grief and indignation, and ran to the side.

He tried to move his body while running, and found that his back was hot. Obviously, he was too close to the explosion point of the grenade just now, and his back was hit by shrapnel.

At this time, the gunfire around slowly stopped. Obviously, the brothers in the class had all died. From the smoke not far away, Lu Xianping found that the Japanese army was cleaning the battlefield in twos and threes...

Standing next to a row of corpses of Japanese soldiers, Major Kasuya Rukichi ordered several soldiers to cut off one ear of each soldier who died in battle. This ear was sent back to China to be preserved by their relatives.

Suddenly, Rukichi Kasutani saw a soldier in the ranks of wounded soldiers with blood streaming down his face, his clothes almost soaked in blood, walking towards him with difficulty. He rushed to meet him, and the wounded soldier rushed forward. Hugging him tightly, he only heard the creaking sound of the fuse of the grenade.

Kasuya Rukichi knew that something was wrong, and was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his head for a while, he shouted: "Drag him away!"

The two soldiers next to him rushed over and dragged the wounded soldier away.

"boom!"

The grenade on the wounded soldier exploded, killing the two soldiers who pulled him away and Rukichi Kasuya's horse. Rukichi Kasuya was lucky to escape, but a small wound was cut on his thigh by the shrapnel of the grenade.

This wounded soldier was a seriously injured soldier from the ninth squad. When he found that the Japanese army was cleaning the battlefield, he knew that he would not be spared. He hurriedly took off the Japanese army's clothes and put the blood on his body and face. As soon as he wiped it, he mixed into the ranks of the Japanese army, trying to kill a high-ranking official of the devil before he died.

But this kind of opportunity was very hard to find, and he didn't understand Japanese, so he had to rush to Major Rukichi Kasuya, who seemed to have the highest military rank.

"Bagaya deer, you guys hurry up and search in the woods again, and make sure not one of the Chinese soldiers escapes." Kasuya Rukichi, who was almost killed by the bomb, yelled angrily, and drove his men to search in the woods again.

Seeing the Japanese soldiers going back and forth, Lu Xianping, who was hiding behind the tombstone just now, let out a miserable laugh. He grabbed the MP40 submachine gun next to him, released the safety, lay down behind the two stone monuments, and walked towards him. Less than one hundred Japanese soldiers pulled the trigger.

"Da da da da."

The dense gunshots spread far in the woods, and the three Japanese soldiers who were walking in front fell backwards.The Japanese soldiers walking near them also reacted quickly, lying on the ground almost instantly and starting to fight back.

"clap clap"

In just an instant, the machine gun bullets hit the stone tablets on both sides of Lu Xianping, making a "ding ding ding" sound, and sparks overflowed.

Although the Japanese army's firepower was fierce, it must be said that Lu Xianping seemed to have the luck of the phoenix, and the location of the cemetery he chose was very good.

Two thick stone tablets blocked him from the bullets fired from almost 180 degrees in front of him. Although it looked extremely dangerous, all the bullets were blocked by the stone tablets. Continuous bursts ahead.

The MP40 submachine gun has a short and lean shape and low recoil, and its advantages of being able to shoot continuously have been fully utilized in dense terrain such as woods.

The submachine gun's range of nearly 200 meters and dense bullets made it impossible for the Japanese army to take him for a while.

"Baga, use the grenade, quickly use the grenade." At this time, Major Rukichi Kasuya, who came to the rear to supervise the battle, hurriedly asked the Japanese troops behind to bring the grenade up.

"Your Excellency, Major, we are cavalry, and we don't bring grenades." A subordinate reminded him softly in his ear.

Kasuya Rukichi suddenly came to his senses. Who has seen cavalry running around with a grenade? Although the grenade is not heavy, the grenade is a burden to the cavalry who pursues speed.

"Bastard, order the troops to quickly outflank and surround him." At this time, Fuji Kokokoro, the cavalry commander, completely entered the role of an infantry commander.

At this time, on the other side of the woods, a team of more than a hundred people is quietly marching. They are moving very fast in the woods. Even more elite.

"Head, someone is exchanging fire in front of us. We heard the sound of a Schmeisser submachine gun."

The sound of the MP40 submachine gun is very special, and it is easy to distinguish when you hear it.

"Go, go and have a look, I want to see, who is bullying our Liantai militia here!"

As soon as the commander waved his hand, the team of more than 100 people immediately surrounded them silently in the direction where the gunshots sounded.

Although Lu Xianping, who was lying behind the grave, relied on two tombstones to resist the bullets from the front, how could one person compete with more than 100 people? .

He sighed secretly. Lying behind the grave bag, he stretched his hand into his bosom, grabbed the fuse of the M24 grenade tied to his bosom, he was dead anyway, and he had to pull a few backs when he was dying. .

At this time, his exposed arm was suddenly grazed by a bullet, and the severe pain made him let out a muffled groan.

Seeing that there was no hope of surviving, he gritted his teeth and was about to blast the grenade in his arms when he suddenly heard a "chug chug" sound from behind.

The sound of this gun is completely different from the MP40 submachine gun. It is a bit like the sound of hitting an iron barrel, and it is very dense, accompanied by the explosion of 60 mortars.

The sudden ferocious firepower caught the Japanese army by surprise, and more than a dozen Japanese soldiers who were pressing up were all knocked to the ground.
