Chapter 95: A Fabulous Ambush
Just here, in this area where people seem to be unable to hide, Gao Han and Jiang Xiaomei are going to engage in a large-scale ambush.
Just this morning, Gao Han and others came here and set up an inverted triangle ambush position. One corner of the triangle was placed on the other side of Zhaoshui.
Although there is an open land by the river, there is a cemetery seventy or eighty meters away. Jia Liu led more than 30 members of the county brigade and lie there with two light machine guns.
Although the ambushed place was separated by Zhaoshui, it was not conducive to attack, but this did not affect their firepower and could attack the Japanese and puppet troops moving on the highway.
The triangular head was placed behind the canal where Gao Han and others were. Gao Han, Jiang Xiaomei and several members of the county brigade were guarding here with a light machine gun.
Ning Wen, Ning Wu and most of the county brigade members were ambushed at another corner of the triangle. They were the real main force of this ambush.
The place where they were ambushing was a wheat field. The terrain was flat and clear at a glance, and it could not hide people at all.
The Japanese would never have imagined that nearly a hundred county brigade members would be hiding here.
It turned out that in this wheat field, each of the team members of the county brigade dug more than a foot deep to accommodate a person's soil pit. The people were lying inside, with the help of other team members, covered with a sheet of bed, and covered it with a thin layer of soil with the shoveled wheat with soil at the roots.
At this time, the wheat fields were almost mature, and most of them had begun to wither and yellow, and there was no difference between them and the pulled wheat.
A total of 85 members of the county brigade, as well as Ning Wen Ningwu brothers, were hidden in the wheat fields not far from the road.
These things are simple to say, but very difficult to implement. First of all, these team members have to lie underground for seven or eight hours. In the small space, the team members are almost unable to move. There are various small insects on the wet ground, constantly biting the team members' bodies. Such an environment is a great test for the team members.
Not only that, so many people were ambushing the wheat fields. In order to prevent people from coming to the wheat fields from nearby villages, Jiang Xiaomei also specially arranged 8 team members to take the ocean to guard the village, comforting the people not to go to the fields to work and prevent the target from being exposed.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was already 10:30. At this time, the sun was shining brightly, the temperature was getting higher and higher, and the underground heat was steaming, making the team members ambushing in the ground very uncomfortable.
Gao Han was a little worried that the members of the county brigade could not stand the crime, so he only hoped that the reinforcements of the Japanese and puppet troops would arrive soon. Jiang Xiaomei knew her members and believed that the members would be able to withstand the test.
Gao Han really underestimated the patience of the members of these county brigades. Not only were they all young and strong, but more importantly, they had deep hatred for the Japanese and puppet troops. The belief in fighting the Japanese and puppet troops was a powerful driving force that supported them to persevere.
At 10:40, Gao Han heard the sound of the motorcycle driving. He whispered: "Prepare for the fight."
The team members who were ambushed behind the canal were loaded with bullets. They all lay flat on the ground, trying to lower their bodies, holding rifles in both hands, ready to shoot at the Japanese and puppet troops at any time.
Ten minutes later, the Japanese and puppet troops appeared.
At the front are three motorcycles, behind them are more than 20 Japanese soldiers, and then nearly 200 puppet troops, who are running forward.
The members of the county brigade who were ambushing in the wheat fields also heard the sound of motorcycle engines on the road. The fatigue caused by suffering for seven or eight hours disappeared in an instant, and they were all excited. They usually loaded the bullets on the ground, took out the grenade from the grenade bag and placed it beside them, quietly waiting for Gao Han's gunshot to remember.
The Japanese soldiers and puppet troops continued to advance in an orderly line, with their rifles on their shoulders, and they were not prepared for the coming danger.
In order to avoid exposing the target, Gao Han was usually on the ground and used his ears to determine the position of the Japanese and puppet troops' march.
Suddenly, he turned over and lay on the ground, married the rifle in his hand to the canal, and fired the first ambush at the Japanese on the road.
With the gunshots, a bullet ran out of the mouth of Gaohan's rifle muzzle and directly drilled into the left eye of the Japanese commander sitting in the sidewall of the second motorcycle. This person was the highest commander of the Japanese and puppet army and the captain of the Japanese military police in Yu County.
The gunshots were signals. The special forces team members who had been ambushing for a long time and the county brigade team members exposed their heads from the cemetery across the river, climbed out of the wheat fields, picked up guns from the back of the canal, and fired violently at the Japanese and puppet troops on the road.
The choice of this inverted triangle position is really great. The firepower point at each corner is less than 100 meters away from the Japanese-equipped troops on the road. The cross firepower formed makes it impossible for the Japanese and puppet troops exposed to the flatness to avoid it.
Under the close attack of four light machine guns and hundreds of rifles, the Japanese and puppet troops had no power to fight back and fell down in groups.
Gao Han and the special forces members were also shooting continuously. Their main targets were officers and machine gunners in the Japanese and puppet army, which made the Japanese and puppet army lose command and fire support in a very short time.
Neither Gao Han nor Jiang Xiaomei issued a charge order. The special forces and the county brigade members were also staying in place, but they kept shooting at the still alive Japanese and puppet troops until they could no longer see the alive Japanese and puppet troops on the road.
The battle took less than five minutes and the road became quiet.
The special forces members and the county brigade members also stopped shooting. When they saw Gao Han and Jiang Xiaomei standing up, they all stood up and walked towards the road.
This was a beautiful ambush battle, which eliminated 27 Japanese and 187 puppet troops. A crooked machine gun, 2 Czech light machine guns, and 212 other guns were seized. Since the Japanese and puppet troops almost did not fight back, they only consumed a few bullets, and the number of bullets seized was quite astonishing, reaching more than 21,000 rounds. In addition, a complete motorcycle was seized.
With such abundant results, only two members of the county brigade were killed and four were slightly injured. This loss was almost negligible.
The members of the county brigade fought such a big battle for the first time and achieved a brilliant victory. They cheered excitedly and many people hugged each other.
After the battle, Gao Han decided not to do anything. He and Jiang Xiaomei took two squadrons of the county brigade to attack Yuxian County, while the rest of the team members went to find Tian Chuan and Li Chengwu, and attacked the cement factory with them.
Taohua Mountain Area.
A team of 30 Japanese and puppet troops searched the various hills near Taohua Mountain Village, and one of them searched in the direction of Taohua Cave.
