The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1190 Sacrificing the Cavalry to Fulfill Oneself (Second Update)

Zhang Xuan arranged four heavy machine guns and ten light machine guns here.

Shooting together, the thick bullets relied on their strong penetrating ability to continuously penetrate the bodies of the two little devils before losing their power.

In just an instant, thirty or forty of the hundreds of Japs who crashed into the pocket formation were killed or wounded. The surviving Japs hurriedly threw themselves on the ground, trying to raise their guns to fight back.

But the bullets flying out of Baogudi seemed to have eyes, flying close to the ground.

A few brave little devils were hit by crossfire as soon as they raised their heads after lying down, and their red and white brains splashed everywhere like rain. It was terrible to see.

"Rush..."

Dozens of Eighth Route Army soldiers suddenly rushed out of Baogudi, like a group of little tigers, howling and killing towards the road.

The Japanese were suppressed on the road by light and heavy machine guns, and it was difficult to raise their heads to fight back.

Facing the sudden attack of dozens of Eighth Route Army troops, they were both nervous and looking forward to it.

They were nervous because the Eighth Route Army's offensive firepower to suppress them was so fierce that they didn't even have a chance to raise their heads and fight back. They could only watch the Eighth Route Army kill them in front of them.

Expectation is the reason.

The Eighth Route Army's offensive firepower was too fierce, and the two sides exchanged fire from a long distance. The first squadron must have suffered.

But if the two sides engage in a bayonet fight, the result will be different.

The Japanese army prides itself on being invincible with a bayonet, including the dozens of Eighth Route Army troops that rushed out of the valley. If they really wanted to fight with a bayonet, they wouldn't be enough to put a gap in the teeth of the First Squadron.

But they forgot one thing.

Although the Eighth Route Army that ambushed them had launched a general offensive, it did not mean that both sides had to end the battle with bayonets.

The next actions of the Eighth Route Attack Force just proved this point.

Dozens of soldiers took out grenades during the charge, bit off the fuses with their teeth, held them in their hands for two or three seconds, and then threw them out with all their strength...

Dozens of white-smoking grenades hit the road at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Japanese soldiers could avoid the rain of bullets flying above their heads by lying on the ground, but they could not avoid the rain of grenades falling from the sky.

"Boom boom boom..."

The moment the first grenade exploded, the leader of the Japanese No. 1 Squadron realized that he was finished...

…………

The Japanese captain and the main reinforcements were positioned five or six hundred meters behind the first squadron.

Make sure that after the first squadron is attacked, you can reach the battlefield within five minutes.

But he still underestimated the strength of his opponent and overestimated the combat effectiveness of the First Squadron.

As soon as he and the main reinforcements ran forward less than a hundred meters, the first squadron was attacked by sudden firepower and killed more than half of its casualties. It was also pinned down on the road and unable to fight back. Dozens of Eighth Route Army troops simultaneously Rush out of Bao Valley and charge towards the First Squadron...

After rushing forward another hundred meters, the First Squadron was covered by the rain of grenades thrown by the Eighth Route Army, and once again paid a heavy price...

But the captain still did not give up reinforcing the 1st Squadron.

It is urgent to move forward with the main force.

Even if the First Squadron encounters an accident on the battlefield, he must leave the Eighth Route Army that ambushed them on the battlefield...

More than four hundred meters...

More than three hundred meters...

More than two hundred meters...

The main force is about to rush to the battlefield, and the Eighth Route Army's offensive troops have not yet withdrawn from the battle. My dream of annihilating the Eighth Route Army's offensive troops is about to be put into actual combat...

"Dong-dong-dong...dah-dah..." The dull and intensive sound of light and heavy machine gun fire reached the captain's ears again.

More importantly, the gunfire did not come from the battlefield where the 1st Squadron was ambushed, but came to his ears from Baoguchi beside him.

"Sir... there are enemies on our flanks, get down quickly..."

A cry of surprise rang in the captain's ears at the same time. Before he could react, his body was thrown to the ground by a guard. Then he felt dense bullets flying above his head, and the screams of his subordinates were all around him.

Turning around, he glanced around and saw that many soldiers were covered in bullets and lay motionless in a pool of blood.

Some soldiers did not die on the spot after being shot, but were letting out heart-rending screams...

The captain was so angry that he smashed his fist on the ground and cursed loudly: "Bagya Road..."

"Why is there an Eighth Route Army ambush unit here..."

"Isn't the main force of the guerrilla brigade outside Fangshan City? Then where did the Eighth Route Army that ambushed us here come from... Can anyone give me an explanation..."

The adjutant crawled to the captain's side, like a frightened little rabbit, reporting with panic on his face...

"Sir..."

"The Eighth Route Army that ambushed us was equipped with at least ten heavy machine guns and thirty light machine guns, and had at least two reinforced battalions..."

"We are probably fooled..."

"They want to set up ambushes here to annihilate us..."

"The real purpose of attacking Fangshan County is to encircle the site and gather reinforcements..."

The brigade leader's expression changed upon hearing this, and he ordered with an anxious face: "The front team changes to the rear team, and immediately rushes out of the Eighth Route Army's pocket formation and returns to Peiping."

"Since the Eighth Route Army wants to encircle the point and call for reinforcements, we must not be fooled."

"faster……"

This is what the adjutant wants.

He didn't want to die yet, but analysis of the ambush firepower exposed by the Eighth Route Army showed that they were fully capable of wiping out the reinforcements here.

If we don't retreat quickly, by the time the Eighth Route Army's ambush force takes complete control of the situation, the reinforcements will have no chance to withdraw.

But for such a big thing as retreat, the captain had to ask for permission, so the adjutant risked being hit by a hail of bullets and crawled to the captain's side to ask for instructions.

After receiving the order from the captain, the whole person seemed to see the hope of life, and instantly became excited. He hurriedly sent orders to the surrounding soldiers: "Let the cavalry squadron take the lead..."

"They were fast and immediately launched a counterattack in small groups against the Eighth Route Army ambushing us in the surrounding areas to attract their firepower."

"The infantry immediately turned around and retreated..."

"First break out of the pocket formation of the Eighth Route Army, then launch a counterattack from the flanks of the pocket formation towards the Eighth Route Army hiding in the Bao Valley, and then coordinate with the cavalry squadron to break out of the pocket formation and evacuate the battlefield together."

The Eighth Route Army's ambush firepower was too fierce. If the troops retreated staring at the hail of bullets coming from the flanks, even if they were not completely wiped out, the remaining three squadrons of the reinforcements would be almost killed.

Only by sending one unit to take the initiative to launch a counterattack against the Eighth Route Army's ambush troops and attract the Eighth Route Army's firepower can other units have a chance to break out of the pocket formation.

The cavalry squadron was transferred by the commander to strengthen himself. It does not directly belong to him, so sacrificing them to fulfill himself is undoubtedly the best choice.

The captain did not raise any objection to the adjutant's order, and immediately ordered the messenger: "What are you still doing? Go and give the order immediately..."

"The cavalry will cover first, and the infantry will break through and retreat..."

"Wait until the infantry break out of the pocket formation and then cover the cavalry squadron to break out..."

"Only in this way can we evacuate the battlefield at the minimum cost and faster."
