Chapter 51: Disguised Assault
This is the terrible, invisible devil of the sniper, precise shooting skills, and fanatical fighting spirit. It can cause huge panic with just a few shots.
Without fierce firepower, the approximate position of the sniper cannot be judged, and there is a lack of effective way to deal with the sniper.
Not to mention the nemesis of the sniper, another sniper. The Imperial Army does not have it, and even the Japanese may not be able to do it.
At a distance of more than 300 meters, the Imperial Army could only see a blurred figure that was the size of a palm, and appeared from time to time. Not to mention shooting, they just wanted to aim, but in a few seconds, they were gone, or changed positions again.
The more the Imperial Army chased, the lower the morale became. Not only was the physical strength declining, but what was even more afraid of was the continuous casualties.
The opponent almost hit the gun, and the Imperial Army just shot the gun randomly. Even they knew that it was impossible to aim and shoot the opponent. The purpose of shooting was to boost courage, and the second was to have the probability of being shot.
Du Ronghe gritted his teeth, his throat was dry, and his shouting was boring. Six or seven soldiers had already died or been injured and withdrew from the pursuit team.
But the murderer more than 300 meters away in front was still seducing his anger.
Moreover, that guy not only looked lively, but also continued to aggravate their personnel losses.
He was so angry that he couldn't fight face to face? Even if you didn't fight, you would run away and they could go back and hand in the work.
But the attackers in front seemed not to be being pursued, but were fishing for the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army was fast, and he was also fast; the Imperial Army slowed down, and he didn't run quickly. He even sneaked back dozens of meters twice and greeted the Imperial Army with bullets.
Du Ronghe felt that he could not chase after him anymore. He had only been three or four miles away. If he chased him, he would probably have to throw himself into the road.
But he didn't want to chase him, but the Japanese consultant did not allow him. Knowing the Imperial Army's nature of fear of death, Eiji Sakamoto followed up with more than a dozen Imperial Army troops to supervise the battle.
A few days ago, in the battle on the wooden bridge, five Japanese killed themselves, and their shooting skills were the biggest feature of the attacker.
Therefore, Eiji Sakamoto judged that the murderer who killed the imperial soldiers was ahead. He wanted to catch this guy, kill him and avenge the dead imperial warriors.
Eiji Sakamoto didn't take the casualties of the Imperial Army seriously. These corrupt bones would die if they could be killed. They could still be brought up, but they were just cannon fodder.
No matter how many people die, as long as they catch or kill the murderer, Eiji Sakamoto thinks it is worth it.
Although he had this determination, Eiji Sakamoto was still very cunning. He observed it first and thought of a solution before he stepped forward to command it himself.
"Your, take people from here; his, take people from there..."
Eiji Sakamoto called Du Ronghe, and there was a small officer who ordered them to bring ten people each to quietly detour from both sides. He led the rest of the Imperial Army to attract the attention of his opponent from the front, that is, he did not rush to catch up, so that the opponent would not rush to escape, and even retreated a little to attract the opponent to approach, thus falling into the siege.
According to his arrangement, if the opponent still sticks to it in a hurry, he will definitely fall into a trap.
But Eiji Sakamoto did not expect that Chen Village's emptiness gave Zhao Tie the opportunity to take advantage of the troops.
The harassment and attack have been underway until now, and the enemy situation has been constantly changing. Any side that wins can adapt to the situation and make courage and strategy.
When Du Ronghe led the puppet army to pursue, Zhao Tie saw it in a hidden place, believing that if combined with Lao Zhou's ambush and attacked forward and backward, he would have the chance to destroy this enemy.
But before he could lead the team to the back of the Douhuang Army, another enemy left the village and went to pursue. Zhao Tie began to consider whether to change the plan and take advantage of the emptiness of Chen Village to take advantage of the emptiness of Chen Village to take advantage of the situation and attack Chen Village, and rescue the masses.
Whether to eliminate the enemy is important or to rescue the masses, Zhao Tie quickly made a decision and took action when the enemy pursued further.
First, he sent five or six team members to take a detour to the north of the village to wait for the time being. After hearing the gunshots in the south of the village, he bluffed, shot guns and threw grenades, restrained the enemy, and created chaos.
Then, Zhao Tie led his men down the ridge, passed through the woods, and lie on the side of the road leading to Chen Village, intercepting two groups of Imperial Army troops carrying the wounded.
"It's still a little too little, there's not enough clothes!" Some team members asked a question.
"This can be dealt with." Zhao Tie said: "There is no need to go up and there are too many people. It is enough to catch the enemy off guard. There are about ten."
After pausing, he said again: "The remaining team members are behind, responsible for calling and leading the masses to retreat."
This was the first time such an action, and the team members were a little nervous. Zhao Tie looked around, pretending to be relaxed, and pointed to the dejected prisoner not far away and said, "See, how soft these guys are? With a gun and a bayonet, they dared not move. There are such guys in the village, so what are we afraid of?"
Some team members laughed and fought against the Imperial Army, and they still had some psychological advantages. Even if they didn’t have an advantage, they were at least not afraid of the Imperial Army.
"It turns out that I'm still muttering, but when I hear the confessions of these prisoners, there are not many enemies left in the village!" Erhuzi grinned and was confident, "Or, we can just take the village back."
Zhao Tie thought so, but he was worried that it actually existed. The team members did not have enough combat experience. If they could not conquer the enemy for a long time and returned after chasing the enemy, they would be blocked from retreating.
In comparison, the safest thing is to rescue the masses first and then make decisions based on the actual situation.
After another half an hour, after hearing the gunshots, Zhao Tie estimated that the enemy he was pursuing was farther away, and the team members were ready to stop and started to act.
There are really not many Imperial Army left in Chen Village, less than twenty people, and they have to be scattered, supervising the people's work while keeping guards.
But the enemy did not expect to be attacked by disguise, perhaps they had no idea in their heads.
The Imperial Army sentry at the entrance of the village stood on the roof of the house that had been demolished, raised his palms and slapped the tent, blocking the sunlight, and looking at the figures appearing on the road in the distance.
Although he couldn't see clearly, he didn't take it seriously. He walked over so swayingly and carried someone. Without thinking about it, he knew that it was his own person and was transferred to the wounded.
As he got closer, he saw clearly the military uniform, military cap, and the pace of progressing slowly and even a little tired.
The sentinels of the Imperial Army determined their judgment and sighed heavily. It seemed that several of their companions had been lucky. In this world, if they were working hard for the Japanese, they could only make a living. It was really not worth it.
"Xiao Liuzi, take the roadblock away and our people are back." The sentry of the Imperial Army shouted listlessly to the lower place.
After a while, no one answered, and no one came out of the house to move the barricade. The sentry was a little angry and raised his voice and cursed: "Xiao Liuzi, you are so fucked to sleep. Come out quickly and be careful of being slapped."
Alas, the lazy voice agreed, and a soldier of the Imperial Army walked out with his sleepy eyes, slowly walked to the middle of the road, and moved the simple roadblock away.
Zhao Tie narrowed his eyes, the wet soil on his face was already dry, and he felt a little uncomfortable. But the roadblock at the entrance of the village had been removed, which shows that the enemy was not suspicious.
Yes, why are you suspicious? Your own troops are still outside, so how could your opponent suddenly appear and appear in front of you?
As he got closer, Zhao Tie's heartbeat began to increase and his palms were wet. After all, it was the first time. Seeing that success was in sight, he felt a little nervous.
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers, thank you for your hard work." Xiao Liuzi stood by the roadblock, smiled and nodded repeatedly. There were dirt and blood on her face. Xiao Liuzi did not recognize someone she knew. Of course, he could not recognize everyone.
Boom, Xiao Liuzi suddenly suffered a heavy blow on the back of his head. He shook and fainted.
Immediately someone set him up and walked towards the cottage next to him. Several agile team members had already moved quickly, turned to the house, and climbed up the ladder.
In anxiety and tension, Zhao Tie waved his hand suddenly, and the team suddenly increased, crossed the checkpoint, and rushed towards the enemy less than a hundred meters away.
"What's going on?" The Imperial Army, who was responsible for supervising the work of the people, asked inquiries in doubt.
Zhao Tie and others didn't say anything, as if they were panicked and continued to rush forward.
Click, click! The Imperial Army pulled the bolt and asked loudly again.
Zhao Tie stopped suddenly, raised his hand and shot at a three-point shot. The box cannon was still very useful at a distance of tens of meters. The talkative and vigilant Imperial Army fell to the ground.
The gunshots started, the team had already rushed into the village, and the enemy was caught off guard.
The Imperial Army is a contradictory group, both pitiful and hateful.
When the Japanese invaders were raging on the land of the motherland, they became accomplices. On the surface, they were shocked by the threat of death and obeyed the orders, but in fact everyone was struggling blindly in the despair of life and death.
It is precisely because of the emptiness of the spirit and the mediocre mind, an atmosphere formed entirely out of selfishness, that infects their souls like a plague, making them greedy and timid.
As soon as the gunfire sounded here, several team members from the north of the village responded in time and shot into the village.
The village's Imperial Army was confused all of a sudden. I thought the enemy was attacking from all directions, so I hurriedly picked up weapons and fired guns randomly, but had no specific command.
Zhao Tie led the team members to successfully attack, and fired first, and fired in a burst of gunfire, rushing and attacking, killing the Imperial Army, who supervised the people, to death, and injured, and the remaining two or three fled into the village in panic.
"Friends, run!" Zhao Tie shouted loudly while directing the team members to occupy the favorable terrain around him, calling out to the people who were shocked by the guns.
The other team members also shouted, pulled and pushed, and the common people slowly woke up. The tired and weak bodies burst out with amazing power and rushed out of the village.
Jiro Iguchi rushed out of the house. He didn't know what was going on, but he had to resist. He howled and kicked, and finally gathered up more than ten imperial troops to protect the courtyard and house with all his might.
It’s not that Jiro Iguchi was timid, but that he knew how many soldiers he had and what kind of soldiers he was. The situation was unclear and he fought back rashly, and once he failed, it would be irreversible.
This courtyard house is a brick and stone building, and is the strongest place in the village. This place is not only his command center, but also stockpiling ammunition and medicine supplies.
Keeping here is at least not a complete failure. There are Sakata Eiji's men outside, so the enemy must not dare to fight.
If this place is lost and there is no food and food supply, even if Sakata Eiji's troops return, how can they gain a foothold in Chencun?
Zhao Tie led people to block the streets and covered the people's escape, but did not encounter much resistance. The Imperial Army did not fight back, and while he was relaxed, he had a little impulse.
From the captive's confession, he knew the general situation in the village and where the enemy's materials were stored. Should he continue to attack, snatch materials or burn them down, so that the enemy's plan to station in Chencun could not be realized?
Zhao Tie frowned and struggled in his heart.
In the end, Zhao Tie gritted his teeth and gave up. It was difficult to predict the time and results by searching and killing enemies from house to house, or attacking the warehouse compound. It was better to be cautious!
Seeing that the people had fled far away, Zhao Tie ordered the team members to withdraw one by one. He personally led the people to cover them and walked at the end.
The gunshots gradually faded and finally calmed down.
This battle between the two sides was worried about fighting against the wolf, and finally came to an end.
Chencun was still in the hands of the enemy, but the masses were all rescued, killing and injuring seven or eight enemies. The guerrillas' small victory was certain.
Zhao Tie led the team to retreat smoothly and met with other team members and the escaped people in the mountains and forests several miles away.
The crowds of people who escaped their hardships hid in a sheltered space, crying and sighing.
Some of the tired people were lying regardless of the cold; some were sitting; some were crying and cursing; some were talking irritably, or looked at the guerrillas around them in fear.
"Look a few fires for them to see that they can't stand the cold." Some team members couldn't bear it and whispered.
"That's not exposing the target and letting the enemy chase after you?" Some team members disagreed and retorted: "Lengdian is better than chasing and running for life, right?"
Zhao Tie sighed secretly and ordered the team members to give all the seized clothes and the bedding rolls they brought to the masses so that they can warm up a little.
It was not dark yet, and the smoke from the fire could be seen far away. Zhao Tie could only make up his mind to keep the safety of the people for the time being.
A few team members were left to take care of the masses, Zhao Tie led a dozen people out of the mountains and forests and came to the road to Chencun.
I don’t know if the pursuing enemies can hear the gunshots, but they will go back sooner or later. Zhao Tie decided to strike the enemy again, and whether it would be the main thing, but this kind of preparation must be done.
When leaving Zhangzhuang, the guerrillas brought some wooden boards and iron clamps, and temporarily collected them, not many of them. They were not even disassembled and modified with grenades, but now is not the time to pursue maximum damage.
The solid ground was completely washed with a pickaxe, and I found the ready-made small potholes. After working hard for a long time, I finally buried eight grenades. Zhao Tie and others brought the soft snow to cover it simply.
After burying the thunder, Zhao Tie and his men lie on the side of the road, preparing to take advantage of the mines to attack the enemy with guns.
Chapter completed!
