Chapter five hundred and seventy seventh two minutes
It has been a while since Liu Gen and others arrived here on the periphery of Wubao County.
When it was still some distance away from Wubao County, Liu Gen and others could hear the sound of gunfire. In the night, the Japanese were attacking wildly, as if they could not feel any fatigue.
"These Japanese are really crazy."
"Is Wubao County really that important?" Seeing the Japanese troops attacking wildly, Xue Bing felt a little confused about the Japanese's thoughts.
Wubao County has a good strategic position, but whether Wubao County can be recaptured under the premise that the Japanese took Liulin County, does not seem to be that important to the Japanese. But now? The Japanese actually attacked Wubao County crazily, as if they didn't care about the Japanese soldiers who were constantly dying.
Liu Gen's face did not change much. He had long guessed that the Japanese would be very crazy in the attack on Wubao County. Whether Wubao County could be recaptured was of great significance to the Japanese.
The successful recapture of Wubao County means that the Japanese still have the initiative in the battle, and that the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army will not have much negative impact on the city capture this time. This is what the Japanese value the most.
The Japanese are very proud. Even if the Japanese have drawn some troops from the Chinese battlefield due to the stalemate in the Pacific battlefield, the Japanese will not have much change on the Chinese battlefield. They try to conceal their weakness by using the strong way to seize the city.
When Xue Bing saw that Liu Gen had not spoken for a long time, she realized that he must have asked a stupid question. He looked at Liu Gen and could see Liu Gen carefully observing the Japanese camp.
Xue Bing looked at the Japanese camp. He couldn't see too much, and it was covered by night. He couldn't see the specific situation of the Japanese camp at all.
This made Xue Bing a little doubtful whether Liu Gen could see something, but he couldn't see clearly. Can Liu Gen? Xue Bing did not disturb Liu Gen's observation. He knew that Liu Gen's observation had a result and would definitely speak directly.
Time passed slowly, and the soldiers lay on the ground and waited patiently for Liu Gen's observation results. No one felt impatient, and no small moves were made.
When observing the Japanese, Liu Gen also paid attention to the soldiers around him. The performance of these soldiers was very satisfied with him. He was worthy of being selected. Being able to be selected is enough to show their elite level. In fact, they have also successfully proved their own strength.
"Retreat!" Liu Gen shouted lightly, not loud, but it was enough for the soldiers around him to hear it.
The soldiers reacted and slowly stepped back on the ground, which was to avoid causing too much noise and causing themselves to be discovered by the Japanese.
Half an hour later, Liu Gen and his soldiers appeared less than a thousand meters away from the Japanese position. They could not continue to advance. The Japanese protected the artillery position very strongly. Liu Gen and others could see that two or three hundred meters away, there were Japanese soldiers constantly patrolling, obviously guarding against attacks on the artillery position.
Killing the patrol Japanese soldiers is not a problem. The difficulty is that after killing these patrol Japanese soldiers, the Japanese will inevitably notice it.
Or, once there is too loud noise when attacking these patrolling Japanese soldiers, Liu Gen and others will definitely be left here by the Japanese! With the troops in Liu Gen's hands, he has no chance to come back next time, and can only succeed in one go!
"What should I do next? I will take Comrade Ji to touch it?" Xue Bing asked when he saw that Liu Gen had no next instructions.
When Liu Gen was taken to the Japanese artillery position, Xue Bing had already understood Liu Gen's plan. Obviously, Liu Gen had an idea about the Japanese artillery position, otherwise he would not have brought several comrades from the artillery battalion during the operation.
"Don't be impatient! I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!"
"wait!"
Half an hour passed, Liu Gen did not move, Xue Bing was helpless. He wanted to speak several times, but in the end he chose to give up.
Xue Bing knew that even if he spoke, he would not be able to affect Liu Gen, and his judgment could not be compared with Liu Gen. Since Liu Gen chose to wait, there must be Liu Gen's truth.
It took an hour or two hours until four o'clock in the morning that Liu Gen took Xue Bing and others to move slowly.
After hiding for so long, the soldiers were in good condition. The fatigue caused by rushing to travel had long disappeared. Not to mention, while waiting, Liu Gen asked the soldiers to rest in batches.
Resting under the Japanese's noses requires courage. This is also the reason why Liu Gen did not choose to bring new recruits. The veteran has experienced many battles, so his courage is naturally unquestionable.
Less than three hundred meters away from the Japanese artillery position, Liu Gen and others stopped. The distance of three hundred meters was fleeting, and the next battle would be very cruel.
"Comrades, the Japanese artillery position is just three hundred meters away. We must rush up as fast as possible!"
"Kill the Japanese artillery and retreat after two minutes. In these two parts, I and several other artillery comrades will do their best to kill the Japanese command!"
"Two minutes are short, but two minutes are also long. In these two minutes, there will definitely be comrades who will unfortunately sacrifice! I hope comrades will be prepared!"
“…”
Liu Gen looked at the comrades present with a serious expression. He knew very well what was going on. Even if he was not sure enough to survive, let alone other soldiers.
"Comrade Liu Gen, we chose to follow you and are ready to sacrifice."
"Sacrifice is inevitable, we all know."
“…”
The comrades smiled and said these words. They were already ready for sacrifice, which made Liu Gen's eyes moist. He wanted to cry, but he knew that he could not do this.
As the captain of this team now, Liu Gen knew that he could not cry and could not let the soldiers be affected.
"Very good! Get ready for the fight!"
The next moment, Liu Gen took the lead in rushing towards the Japanese artillery position. At four o'clock in the morning, there were not many Japanese left behind in the artillery position, and there should be less than twenty people. As long as Liu Gen and others were fast enough, it would be easy to kill these Japanese.
In fact, Liu Gen never took these Japanese left behind in artillery positions seriously. All he was worried about was the Japanese counterattack.
"kill!"
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"
The gunshots sounded, which was particularly obvious in this area. Many Japanese heard the movement and rushed towards the artillery position directly reflexively. The Japanese in the nearby areas all knew the existence of the artillery position and the importance of the artillery position.
With the help of artillery, it is so difficult to attack Wubao County, which is defending by the Eighth Route Army. Without artillery, these Japanese did not know how to take Wubao County. Even if they can, they would probably have to pay a lot of Japanese lives as a price. The Japanese didn't want to die, so they had to keep the artillery position!
"Xue Bing! Hold on with your comrades!"
