The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 694 Raiders take down the hand cannon position (ask for a monthly ticket)

……

In the depths of the village, the monk and the cavalry company commander Sun Daping and his team met.

"Company Commander Sun, how is the situation over there?"

Sun Daping couldn't help swallowing, he gave a thumbs up and said: "Battle Commander Wei, you really don't have to say what kind of killing king you are, half of the dozen or so devils from our side were injured on the spot."

"The little devil is dragged down by the wounded, and the speed of advancement is not so fast."

The monk nodded, looked around at the several teams behind Sun Daping, and then said with a smile: "It seems that everyone played well, and we didn't have any serious casualties."

Sun Daping laughed and said: "Who said it wasn't, the street fighting was really fun. The devils and puppet soldiers fell down in large numbers without even seeing anyone. We soldiers didn't have to take risks at all. Relying on our familiarity with the terrain of the village, we led It's right for the little devil's nose to wander around."

"There are only two fighters in our groups, because when we arranged the King of Slaughter, we obviously hid behind and were far enough away, but we were still scratched by the fragments."

When the monk heard this, he was taken aback, and asked again and again:
"The directional anti-personnel landmine——King of Slaughter, although it shows the frontal fan-shaped area facing the enemy, which is the main strike range, but within 20 meters behind it, it also has a certain lethality. When soldiers use it Be sure to explain clearly."

"Hey, don't dare to make such a mistake again!" Sun Daping responded quickly, feeling a little guilty.

When the soldiers of the independent regiment deployed the King of Slaughter, he led the team to hide behind, wanting to see what this new type of landmine was.

Then the soldiers of the independent regiment persuaded that the backside might not be safe, but Sun Daping didn't listen, which led to the minor injuries of the two soldiers.

... Before the operation, the monk divided the soldiers from the cavalry company and the guard company brought by himself and Duan Peng into three groups, and divided them into nearly 40 combat teams. The team leader of each team was an independent team leader. The soldiers here act temporarily.

Right now, all the teams have basically made gains, wounded and killed many devils and puppet soldiers.

Among them, the sneak attack using various hand grenades, the secret shooting of black guns, and the killing of the new-style landmine killing king caused a large number of casualties to the Japanese army.

As the temporary group leader, the soldiers of the independent regiment had a very clear goal, to traumatize as many devils as possible.

"It's much better to injure a devil than to kill one."

"If you kill a devil, you will die if you die, and it will not affect the battle of others."

"As for wounding a little devil, the devil can't ignore his comrades. At least he has to send two people to carry him back."

"In this way, if there are twelve or three devils in a class, as long as four or five are injured, the devils in this class will basically be useless."

As for the temporary command of the independent regiment fighters as the team leader.

The soldiers of the 28th regiment were originally only because they obeyed the order of the second battalion commander Sun Chuanzhong.

Until the next battle, I saw the various methods used by the soldiers of the independent regiment to deal with the devils.

The soldiers of the 28th regiment were completely convinced, even some cadres were no exception.

As time passed, the devils advanced from the direction of the front village and the back village.

After the monk and Duan Peng chose to fight in the street, the personnel of both sides have been completely mixed together with the help of the houses all over the place.

There were originally 30 groups on the monk's side who were assigned to the King of Slaughter, but now only the last 8 are left.

And for each of the King of Slaughter, the soldiers have witnessed its terrifying power with their own eyes.

If it is used well, a whole squad of devils will be maimed within the fan-shaped strike surface.

If it is barely used, it can at least injure two or three devils at once.

This new type of landmine seems to be everywhere in the village, making the devils and puppet soldiers into frightened birds.

Whenever they saw some unknown objects beyond the scope of understanding, the little devils were all scared and retreated quickly.

The new directional anti-personnel mine - the king of the kill.

The devils have come to a complete conclusion:

The power is terrifying, and the frontal damage range is very large. The shape is mainly curved, or it is placed on the ground, or buried shallowly in the soil layer, or hidden in a corner, facing the steel plate in the open area.

In addition, the explosion of this kind of steel plate is like a booby trap.

Others seem to be controlled by humans, and the hidden eight roads will detonate them after you get close.

It's almost impossible to guard against.

Street fighting was originally the Eight Route Army dragged the devils into densely populated villages in order to fight more with less, and then used their familiarity with the terrain to bridge the gap in equipment, troop strength, and even the quality of soldiers with the devils.

When the devils entered the village, they were most afraid of all kinds of landmines from the Eighth Route Army.

Even in some of the most ordinary villages, even some militiamen with very low combat skills, as long as they have enough mines, they can often cause considerable trauma to the devils who enter the village.

Like stone mines, hanging mines, jellyfish mines, serial mines, etc., the little devils who exploded are completely thrown off their feet.

But the devil who has experienced the battle before him firmly believes that there has never been any homemade mine made by Tubalu, which is more exaggerated than this hell-like new weapon in front of him-the curved steel plate!

In the continuous advance, the devils and the wounded of the puppet army were carried out one after another.

Under the anger of Kazuo Nakano, he has adjusted his advancing tactics many times.

On the one hand, engineers were sent to follow up, armed with mine detectors, to be on guard against landmine attacks from the eight routes at any time.

On the one hand, always pay attention to whether there are eight new weapons hidden on the road ahead--curved steel plates.

If it weren't for the current conditions, Kazuo Nakano even wanted to razed the entire Lijia Village to the ground with artillery.

The old devil even considered whether he could use fire to burn the entire Li family village, including all these dirt roads to death.

It's just that there are no trees in the village here, and the houses with earth and stone structures are not easy to ignite.

In addition, Kazuo Nakano was worried that the Tuba Road in the village would be diverted by the re-dug tunnel.

Only then did he give the order to encircle and suppress the village.

At the same time, send grenadiers to follow behind the sweeping team. Once they are attacked by eight routes, they will immediately reinforce them with grenadiers.

But the cunning Tubalu simply hid in the house, so the house can't be bombarded with shells, right?
Accidentally buried one of my own people again.

The villagers in the countryside are relatively poor, and there is a household consisting of two or three or three or four earthen houses.

Only the front door and the back door are made of wood. After entering the house, the small door leading to each bedroom is just hung with broken curtains, in order to save the materials used to make the door.

At this time, as soon as the little devil opened the curtain, a bayonet would suddenly stab out from inside.

The devil who was caught off guard couldn't react, and was killed on the spot.

This is a way of playing the curtain challenge.

The little devils in the back also learned to be smart. After two or three devils entered the house, they hid on the side of the earthen wall when they lifted the curtain, and suddenly picked it up with a stick.

The two ghosts on the left and right outside hid on the side, aiming their guns at the inside of the curtain, but if there are eight ways hiding, they will pull the trigger at any time.

It's a pity that the little devil can't play with our Eighth Route Army soldiers after all.

Fighting guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines and taking advantage of the environment to hide left and right, soldiers have long practiced it.

There was no one behind the curtain, but the lid of a coffin that had been placed in the main room was suddenly kicked open, and a soldier with a pistol sat upright inside, and shot three devils to death from behind with a few shots.

The devil never dreamed that a big living person would jump out of the coffin.

Similar battles take place in local houses and alleys from time to time.

In the rear, as the wounded continued to increase, after Kazuo Nakano ordered someone to quickly count them, he felt a chill in his heart.

This time, the people of Xiaoli Village were used as bait to ambush and annihilate the main force of the Eighth Route.

Kazuo Nakano invested a total of two squadrons, plus a squadron and two platoons of the Royal Association Army.

The two squadrons were 186 and 196 people respectively.

There are 54 imperial warriors in the team, plus two platoons of the Imperial Association Army, more than 70 Imperial Association Army.

There are a total of more than 500 fighters, which is already nearly half the strength of the brigade.

Originally, in Kazuo Nakano's opinion, such a force was completely sufficient to deal with the Tuba Road with outdated equipment and scarce ammunition.

Right now, the situation is gradually out of Kazuo Nakano's control.

The two sides clashed in the village. In less than two hours, the number of wounded Japanese and puppet soldiers on Kazuo Nakano's side never stopped increasing.

Sometimes two or three were carried out, sometimes four or five were carried out, and sometimes even more than a dozen seriously wounded were carried out at once.

After the statistics, the ghost statistician reported to Kazuo Nakano:

"Sir, there are currently 115 wounded from the Empire and 26 wounded from the Imperial Association Army, of which 47 are seriously wounded in urgent need of surgical treatment."

This is just the casualties counted by Houcun.

The casualties of Qiancun's advancing troops will certainly not be small.

After listening to Kazuo Nakano, he was dazzled for a long time.

A good lure and ambush battle, how did it end like this?

"Bastard, these damned bastards, give me an order to all the ministries, all leave the house, prepare straw, and find a way to burn this village for me, as much as I can burn!"

Kazuo Nakano became impatient, and he did everything he could to deal with the eight roads hiding in the village.

"Hi!"

……

Through the wooden window, I saw the little devil who was hiding outside the yard and was piling up straw outside the house.

These devils tied up the straw, then lit it, and threw it in vigorously across the outside of the yard.

Sun Qingshan's face changed slightly and he said: "No, the little devil is going to set fire to it."

The squad leader said: "Platoon Leader Sun, let's go through the back door! Xiaohu, go and see what's going on at the back door."

The back door of the house leads to the backyard.

Xiaohu hurried to the back door and looked out through the crack of the door. There were also three or four devils outside, hiding behind the bunker and setting fire.

"Platoon leader Sun, squad leader, the situation is not good, and there are ghosts blocking the back door!"

"He's crazy, these little devils, there's nothing we can do, Platoon Leader Sun, we can only kill them out by force!"

Sun Qingshan shook his head and said: "You can't forcefully charge now, otherwise you will definitely fall into the devil's trick.

Our mud house is not so easy to catch fire, and the fire will not affect us so quickly.

I remember that there was a small wooden window in the back room. After removing the wooden window, we withdrew through the window. "

"That's right, why didn't I think of it?" The squad leader slapped his forehead and said with a smile.

...For a moment, the entire village area was filled with thick smoke.

The little devil couldn't burn the house down, and he wanted to use thick smoke to choke out the eight roads hidden in the house.

The gradually thicker smoke gradually rose to the mid-air of Xiaoli Village.

Looking at his masterpiece, Kazuo Nakano showed a cruel smile.

……

But on the other hand, the smoke rising from Xiaoli Village into the air is the fastest way to convey information.

Head Lu, who was coming with the main force, saw the intense smoke from a distance.

"No, the devil set fire to the village!"

"Second Battalion Commander, Monk, Duan Peng, you have to stand up for me!"

"The commander of the first battalion and the third battalion, immediately split up into two groups to detour and attack the Japanese army from the back and side."

"Fast, I'm afraid the Second Battalion Commander and the others won't last long."

"Yes!"

The speed of the soldiers of the 28th regiment was not slow at all, and they quickly made a detour to the left and right of Li's wrong.

Of course, Kazuo Nakano also considered whether more main forces of the Eighth Route Army would come when he wiped out these Eighth Route Army.

At first, he confidently believed that as long as these people were used to transfer the Eighth Routes, once the Eighth Routes were besieged in Xiaoli Village, it would not take much time to eliminate them.

The tenacious resistance of the monk and his party exceeded Kazuo Nakano's expectations, and it was only delayed for more than two hours.

Not long after, when the devil's guard post found the figure of Balu suddenly appearing from the gentle terrain.

The soldiers of the 28th regiment have formed a siege.

Kazuo Nakano was holding his command saber, looking grimly at the fire gradually igniting in Xiaoli Village!

The communicator arrived suddenly and hurriedly reported to Kazuo Nakano:

"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, something is wrong, there are a large number of Eight Routes surrounding us!"

"Nani? How many people are there on Tuba Road?"

"Sir, it seems to be the main force of the Eighth Route Army, with a strength of five or six hundred."

Kazuo Nakano thumped in his heart. If it hadn't been for being held back by these eight roads in Xiaoli Village right now, it would have caused a lot of casualties.

He didn't necessarily care about the main force of the Eight Routes who came for reinforcements.

Just put up a stance, the two sides fight positional warfare, and use the superior artillery fire to beat these dirtbags hard.

Kazuo Nakano is even confident that with the strength of a squadron, he can block the attack of a regiment of the Eighth Route Army head-on.

After all, the firepower and equipment levels of the two sides are not at the same level at all.

It's just that the eight roads in the village haven't been cleaned up yet!

Outside the window, the main force of the Eighth Route Army came to encircle them, and it was troublesome now.

In desperation, Kazuo Nakano ordered the troops to be withdrawn to deploy fortifications outside the village in advance to resist the encirclement of the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

On the one hand, arrange part of the troops to guard against sneak attacks from the back and side of the Eight Routes in the village.

"Contact the headquarters immediately. Our department has successfully contained a large number of main forces of the Eighth Route Army in Lijia Village. Please send troops to the headquarters immediately."

"Hi!"

"It only takes two hours. As long as we can contain these Eight Routes in the Lijia Village area, once our reinforcements arrive, these Eight Routes will be unable to escape!"

Kazuo Nakano said confidently to the adjutant beside him.

In his opinion, these dirt roads in the village can last for more than two hours in his own hands.

How could I not be able to do it myself?

Outside the village, the confrontation between the devils and the soldiers of the 28th regiment began quickly.

The devil's artillery fire is indeed fierce. Even at this moment, the Japanese and puppet troops have already suffered more than 1/3 casualties. The fire directly blocked the entire open area.

In a daze, Captain Lu and his party were temporarily unable to advance.

Commander Lu was angry and impatient.

So far, he has not heard the sound of fighting in the village.

The intensity of firepower displayed by these little devils was really amazing. He was worried that the Second Battalion Commander and the others were in danger.

As for the 28th regiment, over the past six months, due to the strengthening of cooperation with the independent regiment in various aspects, the level of equipment has improved a lot.

At the beginning, the 28th regiment expanded too quickly, resulting in many recruits, poor equipment, and scarce ammunition.

There are more than 3000 soldiers in the regiment, and the last gun used by two or three people is an old gun with almost worn out rifling.

The whole regiment has only one old scalper heavy machine gun, and it will not be able to fire for two or three minutes on the battlefield because of various problems.

There are only two light machine guns in a battalion, and seven in the whole regiment.

Only two of the grenades were seized, and the corresponding Type [-] grenades were only a dozen rounds, and there were almost no veterans in the regiment.

Each rifle can dispense fewer than five bullets.

Every time it is said that it is a regiment of troops with a combat strength of more than 3000, but there is only one company that can really be pulled out to fight.

Why?

Because only by concentrating the firepower of the whole regiment can a company barely fight an ambush.

At the end of each battle, even if the battle is won, although a lot of guns can be seized, sometimes the amount of ammunition seized is not even comparable to the consumption.

The ambush in Xiaohuangzhuang was over in one battle.

Sun Chuanzhong, the commander of the Second Battalion, returned to the regiment headquarters and reported to Commander Lu with a bitter face:
"Captain, we have won the battle!"

Commander Lu was dumbfounded. Seeing the second battalion commander's expression that was uglier than crying, he wondered, "You should be happy when you win the battle. Why are you still so sad?"

Sun Chuanzhong said helplessly: "Regimental Commander, the victory was won, and more than 50 guns were seized, but a total of 2357 rounds of bullets of various calibers were seized.

But the ammunition we consumed in this battle, after we counted, we found that it was 3216 rounds, and we lost nearly 1000 rounds of ammunition at once.

If this kind of battle continues, sooner or later our fighters will have to fight the little devil with bare hands, Commander..."

In one sentence, the difficult situation of the Eighth Route Army soldiers who fought hard and outstandingly behind the enemy lines was exhausted.

In fact, the Eighth Route Army has always had the following disadvantages when fighting against Japan behind enemy lines:
Except for the 40 years of "mopping up" by the Japanese army, which resulted in the seizure of guns and losses beyond their means.

In the remaining three years, the seizures of guns by various departments of the Eighth Route Army have always been greater than the losses.

The ammunition is just the opposite. Except for 38 years, the seizure of ammunition in the rest of the years is far behind the consumption.

Even if an ambush is fought, under normal circumstances, the amount of ammunition consumed is even two or three times the amount of ammunition seized, and the more you fight, the poorer you are. This is the status quo.

Right now, the equipment level of the 28th Regiment has improved a lot.

Because of doing business with the independent regiment, coupled with Kong Jie's equipment assistance to the 28th regiment.

In the current 28th regiment, there are four heavy machine guns in the whole regiment.

There were more than a dozen light machine guns, and the heads of all the regiments in central Jizhong were envious when they heard about it. Head Lu's mouth was almost crooked.

In addition, Kong Jie also gave ten of the grenade launchers in the regiment, or the [-] small guns modified and produced by the Independent Regiment Repair Institute, plus [-] rounds of shells.

This is also the reason why the 28th Regiment has fought more and more courageously since Jizhong conducted tunnel warfare during this period, and even became the most brilliant regiment-level combat unit in Jizhong.

With excellent equipment, plenty of ammunition, and a strong waist, you can naturally win battles!
It's just that this battle is fought a lot, and in many cases the consumption is greater than the capture.

The family property of the 28th regiment is also getting less and less.

Right now, Commander Lu is leading the main reinforcements.

There are only ten light machine guns in hand, plus eight [-] small cannons.

The only mortar in the regiment was not brought because it was too heavy and the situation was urgent.

Facing the powerful artillery counterattack of the little devil.

Commander Lu did not immediately order the firing.

The reason is very simple, I feel sorry for the shells, and every time I fire one shot, one shot will be lost.

Until the monks in the village heard the fighting outside the village, they realized that Commander Lu was coming with the main reinforcements, and quickly tried to attack from the back of the Japanese army.

Head Lu heard the fighting in the village and confirmed that the Second Battalion Commander and the others were still alive.

Without hesitation, he immediately issued an order:

"The first battalion commander and the third battalion commander, take our [-] small cannon and beat him to the son of a bitch. Now is not the time to feel sorry for the cannonball."

In my heart, I muttered:

Old Kong, old Kong, I lost this cannonball to save your tiger general. You have to admit it, brother, and you must make it up for me later!

boom -

The No. [-] small cannon transformed and produced by the Independent Regiment Repairing Institute is better than the Devil's Type [-] grenade launcher in terms of range and power.

Shells exploded on the Japanese fortifications.

There were certain casualties on the Japanese side.

Kazuo Nakano, who was commanding from the rear, was also taken aback. The artillery fire at the hands of the main force of the Eighth Route Army was really not weak.

He was sure that these must be the main force of the 28th regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

In the past six months, I don't know what method the 28th regiment has used, but the level of equipment in the regiment has suddenly improved a lot.

The most difficult Eighth Route Army in central Jizhong belongs to this 28th regiment.

Thinking of this, Kazuo Nakano made up his mind to stick to it. He must persist until the reinforcements arrived, and wiped out the main force of the 28th regiment near Xiaoli Village in one fell swoop.

in the village.

Due to the retreat of the Japanese and puppet troops, the monk and Sun Chuanzhong quickly gathered the soldiers of all groups together and hid in the alley away from the area set on fire by the devils.

Listening to the increasingly fierce battle sounds outside the window, Sun Chuanzhong said with great joy:

"It must be our regiment leader who rushed over with the main force!"

"Monk, let's fight. Let's force a surprise attack here, so that the devils can't care about each other, and we can support the attack from the leader's side."

The monk thought for a while, then listened to the sound of the Devil's [-]-type grenadier, nodded, and said:
"At the moment, the devils are sticking to their defenses. They are obviously still planning to keep us in Xiaoli Village. I guess the devils have already asked for help from the rear of the Japanese army."

"The devil's reinforcements will arrive soon, and we must make a quick decision here."

"The little devil's grenadier is the most threatening. In this way, Second Battalion Commander, Company Commander Sun, you lead the soldiers to follow up. Duan Peng and I will lead the team to knock down the devil's grenadier position first."

Sun Chuanzhong said: "The devil's grenadier may not be together, and it must be protected by the little devils. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to attack."

After Sun Chuanzhong finished speaking, he saw the monk in front of him and Duan Peng looked at each other, and then laughed tacitly.

Duan Peng smiled and said, "Second Battalion Commander, do you still remember the little devil's clothes we asked everyone to collect?"

"Devil clothes?"

Sun Chuanzhong was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Monk Duan Peng, don't you mean to pretend to be a little devil and sneak in?"

The monk smiled and nodded.

Duan Peng on the side even said a few words in Japanese with a serious face.

Sun Chuanzhong was dumbfounded, "Isn't this the dog language of a little devil? Duan Peng, you know it?"

Duan Peng replied: "That's right, my instructors can say that if you master Japanese more, you can master more skills in killing devils. In order to improve Japanese, I have taken many prisoners with the devils in the regiment. deal with them."
