Chapter 658 Survival in a desperate situation?
The result was no surprise, and the squadron leader's request was once again rejected by the captain without any mercy.
"Bageyalu, how many times have we told you that we cannot affect the entire battle situation for our own privateness! I know that the attack you are launching is very atrocities, but for the sake of the overall situation and in order to completely wipe out the Eighth Route Army in front, we can only endure it and wait until the roundabout troops are interspersed in place before launching the general attack!"
"If you lead the troops to attack again, from a time point of view, the roundabout troops should be almost interspersed. As soon as they arrive, we will launch a general attack, and then your squadron will be responsible for the main attack."
With the promise of the captain to serve as the main attacker, the squadron leader's face suddenly became better. He was afraid that the captain would take back his life, so he quickly continued: "Don't worry, sir, I will arrange my troops to attack the Eighth Route Army's blocking positions now.
The main Japanese army began to attack at 9 o'clock in the morning, and the assault time agreed with the detour troops was 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Two troops attacked the Eighth Route Army's blocking troops from front to back, striving to end the battle before dawn to prevent the Eighth Route Army from escaping under the cover of night.
At about 3:00 p.m., the seventh attack launched by the Japanese and puppet troops was "defeated" again.
Facing his subordinates who were evacuating the battlefield quickly, the captain was not sad at all. He looked at the back of the Eighth Route Army's blocking positions while looking at the watch.
The assault time agreed with the detour troops is coming. As long as both sides launch an attack on time in the next battle, the captain is more than 90% sure to eat the Eighth Route Army blocking troops, and then drive straight into the base of the Independent Regiment, raid the command center of the Unique Regiment, and successfully complete the task.
At five o'clock, the captain did not see any signals from the detoured troops, and the radio station received no news about them.
The captain subconsciously thought that they had been delayed by some accident on the march. After waiting for a while, they could catch up with the time they had been delayed on the road and interspersed them on time.
What disappointed him was that after three o'clock, the captain had not found the signal sent by the roundabout troops!
He began to feel a little unable to sit still, and a hint of anxiety slowly flashed across his calm face.
The interspersed troops entered the Independent Regiment base area are not far away from here. They have more than 500 people, and their opponents are just new recruits from a battalion. According to principles, they can easily enter the Independent Regiment base area and then march all the way to the here.
Even if some accidents happen in the middle, it will not threaten the safety of the interspersed troops, and at most it will take some time.
But judging from the current situation, the accidents that happen to the interspersed troops must be more than just delaying time.
The captain became more and more anxious the more he thought about it. He immediately ordered the radio operator on the side: "Send a telegram to the interspersed troops immediately and ask about their situation. The faster the better!"
The radio operator reacted quickly, and drove the radio station to the stone and started calling the troops...
Ten minutes passed after this wait. No matter how the telegrapher called, the interspersed troops on the other end of the radio station did not respond at all.
The anxious expression on the captain's face had become nervous without realizing it, and a very bad premonition appeared in his mind, thinking that something might have happened to the interspersed troops.
Just as he continued to look for the interspersed troops behind the Eighth Route Army with a calm face, a few sporadic rifle shooting sounds suddenly sounded behind him.
The captain didn't care much at first, thinking that the Eighth Route Army's guerrillas were running in the guerrilla area to make trouble, and wanted to reduce the combat pressure of the main force by firing cold guns, so he did not arrange troops to deal with these accidents.
It was not until the sound of sporadic rifle shooting turned into the sound of machine gun strafing, that the captain realized something was wrong.
While rushing to the commanding heights beside us and trying to see with our own eyes what happened at the location of the gunshot, we ordered our subordinates: "Send someone to investigate immediately and find out why there are gunshots behind us."
"Boom boom boom..."
Four explosions suddenly sounded in the middle of the assembly force, interrupting the command that the captain had not finished yet.
The moment the black smoke rose from the ground, at least fifteen subordinates fell around the bounce point...
"It's a mortar shell. The enemy is attacking everyone with mortars. The artillery position is placed behind us, so we will immediately protect the captain from leaving here." The guard captain followed the captain and saw that the captain wanted to run to the commanding heights. During the artillery raid just now, a shell hit it. The captain of the guard would definitely not agree to the captain's adventure, so he quickly ordered it.
The captain was unwilling to do it at first, but when he saw another shell hit the high ground in the second round of artillery fire, instantly destroying a heavy machine gun position. The idea of insisting on going to the high ground disappeared instantly, and quickly followed the guards to the place they thought were safe.
At this time, the Eighth Route Army, which had been suppressing the frontal blocking position, began to fight back.
They not only equipped four mortars, but also two mountain cannons.
With one move, he smashed six shells into the Japanese and puppet artillery positions.
After the Japanese assembled troops were attacked by artillery fire, the artillery positions that cooperated with the attack immediately locked in the position of the opponent's artillery positions and prepared to launch artillery counterattacks, kill the opponent and relieve the infantry.
When the blocking position suddenly fired at them, the gunners were busy turning the artillery.
When the infantry launched a tentative attack, all the artillery brought by the Japanese and puppet troops aimed at the Eighth Route Army's blocking positions, providing fire cover for the infantry.
The four mortars that just emerged were placed behind the attacking troops. If the Japanese gunners wanted to kill them, they had to turn all the artillery first.
Facing the six shells fired from the blocking position, not only did the gunners not prepare, but there was no artillery in the artillery position to fire a counterattack. The gunners could only lie on the ground with their heads in their arms, praying that the shells would not hit the side, and then continued to turn the artillery while the artillery was attacked.
"Boom boom boom... da da da da... dong dumb..."
The shells exploded, and there were also a large number of light and heavy machine guns strafing sounds in the middle. Some heavy machine gun bullets flew to the gathering positions with dense personnel, and some heavy machine gun bullets flew to the artillery positions and heavy machine gun positions, and together with the shells, killing the gunners and machine gunners on the positions!
"Sir, there are at least two companies of the Eighth Route Army behind us. They are equipped with at least four mortars and six heavy machine guns. Our defense against them will collapse at once." A communications soldier was anxious to catch up with the captain, with a shocked and fearful expression on his face, gasping and reporting!
"Why don't the artillery troops fight back? The enemy only has four mortars. They can kill all the opponent in two or three rounds of volleys!" The captain was angry after hearing this, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and cursed.
The communications soldier reported with a painful look on his face: "The artillery troops are unable to protect themselves and can no longer provide us with artillery fire support."
"The Eighth Route Army standing in front of us has been showing weakness. In addition to equipped with light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers, they also hid four mortars and two mountain cannons."
"After the enemy lurking behind us launched an attack, our artillery immediately turned the artillery and prepared to counterattack."
"The hidden artillery of the Eighth Route Army blocking troops took the opportunity to launch an attack. Just three rounds of volleys destroyed all the two mountain cannons and two infantry cannons we brought."
"The mortar was destroyed for easy transfer, and eight were successfully withdrawn."
"But they have been targeted by the Eighth Route Army artillery units. As long as there is a tendency to set up artillery, they will immediately fire their guns, which will make them have no chance to stop and fight back!"
"Comrades, rush..." The shouts of killing from the frontal blocking position suddenly sounded, interrupting the report that the communications soldier had not finished speaking.
More than a hundred Eighth Route Army soldiers rushed out of the blocking position, screaming.
The front row of soldiers were either holding light machine guns or holding box cannons and submachine guns, striking forward while holding fire.
The entire attacking force was like a sharp blade that was unsheathed, and soon broke out into a bloody path among the Japanese and puppet troops.
The Japanese who stood in front of them and the Imperial Army who reacted half a beat were all beaten into sieves. The puppet army, who reacted a little faster, quickly knelt on the ground, threw away their weapons, raised their hands high, and acted as if they were immediately surrendering!
"Dididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididididid
Their attack method is similar to the Eighth Route Army that blocked their heads. They all use light machine guns and submachine guns to open the way. Wherever the troops were going, they would fly wherever the bullets they fired.
Without the advantage of artillery fire, the dense subordinates were like a tiger without fangs, and their combat effectiveness had plummeted.
In just a few minutes, the battle took a sharp turn. At least five hundred subordinates were divided by the Eighth Route Army that suddenly came out. With the previous losses, there were less than a thousand subordinates following the captain.
The deputy captain on the side was anxious. If he ignored it and watched the troops divided by the Eighth Route Army be wiped out, the attacking troops of more than 2,000 people were instantly defeated, and the situation would be a result.
He led them to continue attacking, and the remaining 1,000 people in the offensive army not only did not achieve any results, but he might also trap himself in the Eighth Route Army base, and finally he lost his wife and his troops.
The temporary retreat is even more unfeasible.
The military headquarters gave the brigade captain a task of raiding the Unique Regiment. Now they retreated before they even entered the base area, and they were still losing their troops and generals. There was definitely no way to give the above explanation!
If the military headquarters decides to hold everyone accountable, the captain and himself will be the first to bear the brunt.
The more the deputy captain thought about it, the more cold sweat it was on his forehead, and a decision immediately emerged from his mind: he must rescue the subordinates of the Eighth Route Army. Only in this way can the crisis in front of him be resolved.
If you can't save it, you will have to fight to the death with the Eighth Route Army that raided him just now and destroy them all.
Only in this way can the offensive troops have the credit that they can take to offset the serious losses of the troops and thus reduce the command responsibility of themselves and the captain.
