Chapter 78: Survival from death, residual victory(1/2)
"team leader!"
"The Japanese from the east are coming!"
"Gonna be numb!"
"Gonna be numb!"
"Kaname was knocked unconscious by a bomb!"
Before Wang Zhong could finish his call, Dong Dao next to him shouted back.
"Then you go, lead a squad, and each person grabs a basket of grenades and goes over to support me. Wait for the signal from me. Once the signal arrives, immediately use grenades to greet the Japanese!"
"yes!"
Dong Dao immediately stood up, performed a military salute, and ran away in a hurry.
It turned out that because of the overheating of the barrels and the gap between reloading of the two heavy machine guns on the east side, the Japanese found an opportunity and advanced directly forward.
Wang Zhong adjusted the position and angle of the grenade again, and aimed three mortars at the cabinet at the front from the east.
Following the three blasts of "Boom, Boom, Boom", dozens of Japs charging at the front were immediately blown away by the impact and aftermath of the explosion, as well as the flying earth and rocks.
The pressure on the east side dropped sharply.
The two heavy machine guns took advantage of this gap, loaded bullets, cooled the barrels with water, and then started firing again, instantly repelling the approaching Japanese soldiers.
Wang Zhong turned the gun again, aiming at the Japanese grenade position where only seven or eight grenade launchers had been used up. He aimed at the seven or eight grenade launchers and fired three more rounds.
The barrels of Milong's machine gun have been replaced several times, and more than a dozen magazines have been emptied.
"cake!"
"clip!"
"Brother Mi Long, there are only three magazines left!" Doubian reminded loudly after handing over another magazine.
Mi Long was stunned for a moment, but the movements of his hands did not stop at all. He continued to hold the machine gun and started firing again at the Japanese soldiers who were all over the mountains and plains.
A box of bullets can kill five or six Japs.
Fortunately, there were four heavy machine guns mounted. Even though the Japanese charged with fearlessness, in the face of the heavy machine guns that were like harvesters of human life, the flesh and blood body was still defeated. The fourth wave of Japanese charges was defeated again.
retreat.
"Baga!"
"How could this Chinese guerrilla force have such strong firepower, grenades and heavy machine guns? It caused heavy losses to our warriors of the Japanese Empire."
Seeing his own team retreating again, abandoning the corpses of countless compatriots, Yamamoto Jiro became so furious that he almost smashed the telescope in his hand.
"How many troops do we have yet to go up?"
"Back to your Majesty, Major, there are only two teams left that have not yet entered the battle."
"Bagaya road!"
"A small guerrilla force actually cost us nearly a squadron."
"How long will it take for the anti-war artillery to arrive?"
"According to the estimated distance, there are about three hours left."
Yamamoto Jiro looked at the battlefield filled with smoke, his face was already ashen.
"Pass my order to the entire army to rest and wait for the anti-tank artillery to arrive before launching an attack."
"Send out scouts, be careful and keep an eye on the guerrillas on the mountain, lest they take advantage of them." Even in his rage, Yamamoto Jiro still did not lose his mind.
Five consecutive waves of attacks were repulsed. From noon to evening, and now almost dark, the guerrillas have not been able to capture the guerrillas. Instead, they have once again occupied the high ground, gained the advantageous location, and lost dozens of soldiers.
After shooting the grenade, he was still able to calm down. It can be seen that this Yamamoto Cilang is completely different from the Sakata brigade in the last battle at Gudokou.
At the same time, on the position on the mountain, Wang Zhong returned to the position with Snake Butt and others. Looking at the unconscious Yao Nai, who was missing an arm, he asked in a deep voice: "Have we calculated the losses?"
"Sixteen people on our side were killed, 14 were seriously injured, and there were more than 30 minor injuries. Among the lightly injured, there are more than a dozen people who can still fight." Bu La was not there, Yao Ma was seriously injured and unconscious, and Dong Dao went to the opposite side.
, counting the wounded can only be left to the snake butt in charge of the Fire Head Army.
"The casualties on the other side will only be more serious!" Snake's butt lost any of its former ease and ease, and only solemnity remained on its face.
Wang Zhong said in a deep voice: "Inform Dong Dao that after dark, immediately abandon the opposite position and retreat to meet us!"
"yes!"
Thirty people were killed plus seriously wounded, and more than thirty were slightly wounded, adding up to sixty people. There were only a hundred people on their side, which meant that only half of them were intact.
Moreover, Dong Dao and Cui Yong's casualties in the east will only be heavier. There are more than two hundred people, and half of them have full beards and tails. They are already burning incense.
Although most of the lightly wounded are still capable of fighting, if they cannot receive timely treatment and the minor injuries turn into serious injuries, it will also kill these lightly wounded.
This is not alarmist talk, but a complete reality.
"Organize a few new soldiers and take away the seriously wounded first."
Wang Zhong simply helped the health workers treat the injuries of the seriously injured while giving orders in an orderly manner.
The soldiers were also on the battlefield full of gunpowder smoke, taking advantage of this rare interval to replenish food and water. The recruits who were full of fear at the beginning and didn't know why, could not see the slightest fear on their faces at this moment.
He was just numb and calm, quietly eating the food in his hands, drinking water from the kettle, wiping the gun in his hand, and checking the remaining ammunition on his body.
Snake Butt, who was temporarily in charge of logistics, led his men to distribute all the remaining bullets to every soldier.
Night gradually fell, and the dark night enveloped the earth. Dong Dao and Cui Yong also quietly withdrew their soldiers from the mountains in the east and returned to the west.
"How are the casualties on your side?" Wang Zhong was most concerned about the battle losses.
Dong Dao said solemnly: "Thirty people were killed, twenty-one were seriously injured, and more than twenty were slightly injured."
Wang Zhong looked stern: "How many of those with minor injuries are still able to fight?"
"There are thirteen more." Dong Dao replied in a deep voice.
More than fifty people were killed and injured, and a dozen more were unable to participate in the battle again. The battle loss rate had exceeded half.
"We only have about one company left that can participate in the battle." Wang Zhong said solemnly: "We exchanged one company for one squadron of Japanese soldiers, and the battle loss ratio is nearly one to three. We are no longer at a loss.
"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Snake butt!"
"arrive!"
"You take a platoon, bury the dead brothers on the spot, then take the other wounded, and quickly evacuate to Base Area No. 1. Remember, you must clean up the traces left along the way, and you can't let the Japanese follow the traces to catch up.
.”
"Guaranteed to complete the task."
"Captain, what about us?" Dong Dao came up and asked.
Wang Zhongdao: "In the afternoon, Bula has already led people to lurk on the Japanese flank."
"The Japs are standing still now. They must be waiting for their heavy weapons. If we wait for the Japs' artillery to arrive, with our current strength, apart from being eaten by the Japs, there will be no second result."
"So we must take the initiative." Wang Zhong has always believed that the best defense is to attack. This has been true from the beginning of his arrival in Myanmar in 42 until now, and has gone through dozens of battles, large and small.
Dong Dao and Snake Butt, who had been with Wang Zhong since the first battle in Burma, were already accustomed to Wang Zhong's unconventional and aggressive tactics.
"Captain, how are we going to fight?" Dong Dao asked directly how to fight.
Wang Zhong's eyes narrowed slightly, looking in the direction of the Japs camp several miles away, and said: "The Japs must have deployed a large number of scouts in the surrounding mountains and forests. The movements of your retreat may not have been able to hide from the eyes of those Japs scouts.
But they haven’t made any move yet..."
"Is it possible that the Japanese are hiding something evil?" Dong Dao guessed.
"Not necessarily!" Wang Zhong said.
"Although we suffered heavy losses in the previous five attacks, the Japanese losses were also not small. At least one and a half of the three squadrons were wiped out by us. Without artillery support, their infantry just charged many times.
It’s all in vain.”
The power of the heavy machine gun cannot be overstated.
"Then how do we fight now?"
"No rush!"
"We'll wait until Snake Butt and the others are far away."
Half an hour later, Wang Zhong formed a commando team again, with himself as the vanguard, and moved along the hillside toward the Japanese camp.
Dong Dao, Cui Yong and other veterans took the remaining No. 60 soldiers, two platoons of intact and uninjured soldiers hanging about thirty meters behind the commando team.
Wang Zhong no longer held back at all, his senses were fully activated, and he held a large bag of stones in his hand. Whenever he sensed the location of the Japanese scouts, he would throw the stones out of the bag in advance.
With the blessing of Cao Lin's pure and majestic Qi, the speed of the flying stones may be slightly slower than that of bullets, but the power is not bad at all, and even more powerful.
After advancing only a mile and a half, more than twenty Japanese scouts died under Wang Zhong's stones.
Looking at the Japanese camp just around the corner, Wang Zhong set up the grenade and a few recruits were responsible for loading the ammunition. Dong Dao led the remaining soldiers to crawl closer to the Japanese camp.
Seeing Dong Dao and others enter the designated position, Wang Zhong immediately ordered the cannon to fire.
