Chapter 207 The devil suffered a great loss
Ikeda, led Zhao Xiaozi's puppet army and his own Japanese brigade, did not listen to Yamamoto's dissuasion and continued to move towards the pass.
The Japanese in front thought that there would be no accidents in the places where firepower had been reconnaissance, so they relaxed their vigilance. When they were taking big strides, they touched the white silk thread and pulled the grenade pull rings under the piled stones. Several grenades almost at the same time.
Because the stone wall is relatively high and the smoke is inside the stone wall, it will naturally not attract the attention of the Japanese, so the Japanese continued to walk forward with the puppet troops without any notice.
In just a few seconds, a few rumbling explosions came from the linear hillside, and then the overwhelming stones smashed down from top to bottom.
The Japanese and puppet troops were both trapped in rocks, either hitting the head or hitting the abdomen, or hitting the legs, feet and arms.
There are few Japanese devils who can escape from this rolling stone drop formation, far less than the number of casualties that are scary.
After the stones were completely settled, the stones and sandstorms stopped restless, and the brigade began to calm down, but what followed were the wailings and calls of the wounded Japanese soldiers and the remaining puppet troops.
At this moment, Ikeda's right arm was not spared from being smashed by rocks. His arm was dislocated and the pain was unbearable. He lay on the ground and could not move.
"Your Excellency, are you okay?" The recruit Ue is closest to Ikeda, and he is the only one of the three subordinate officers left to survive. He is asking about Ikeda's injuries at this moment.
"I'm fine!" Ikeda replied in pain, "The damn Chinese people are so cunning that they actually set up a stone formation here, causing serious losses to our troops!"
"It seems that the Chinese army had planned it for a long time, and we neglected it!" The recruit Wei immediately said, expressing his agreement with Ikeda's meaning.
"Count the number of people immediately to see how many people can participate in the battle!" Ikeda felt that the Chinese would have other actions after this round of ambush, so he immediately said to the recruit Wei.
"Ha!" The recruit Wei did not dare to neglect, and immediately stood up to check the team's situation and made statistics one by one to give Ikeda a reward, so that Ikeda could grasp the team's situation more accurately.
"Ikeda Jun, how are you?" Yamamoto saw an explosion and a large-scale collapse before, and all the stones hit Ikeda and the others, so he ran towards Ikeda and the others like crazy.
After crossing the bodies of the Imperial soldiers who were injured by the stone smashing, they ran directly towards Ikeda and asked about Ikeda's situation.
While asking, he held the sniper rifle in his hand to guard the people, and did not dare to slack off at all.
"My arm cannot move for the time being!" Ikeda saw Yamamoto coming and immediately said to Yamamoto, "It seems that Yamamoto, you are right. That person named Wang Si really can't underestimate him."
"Stop talking about this now, let's treat your arm first!" Yamamoto saw that Ikeda's arms were mainly smashed, so he comforted Ikeda's emotions while shouting to the medical staff who were rescuing the wounded, "Medical staff, hurry up!"
"Ha!" The medical nurse did not dare to neglect and immediately ran towards Ikeda, opened the box and began to inspect Ikeda.
"Kun Ikeda, after this, our imperial army suffered heavy losses. It seems that there is no way to continue to effectively pursue Wang Si and the others. It is better to retreat now!" Yamamoto observed the situation of their teams around Si and found that both the Japanese troops and the puppet troops suffered heavy losses, and their combat effectiveness was less than one-third.
As for the current situation, let alone chasing Wang Si and Zhang Shaozong, even if you fight face to face with the opponent, you may not have a chance of winning.
A battle with no chance of winning will not gain any benefit if it continues, so retreating becomes their only choice.
"I'll listen to you and order the team to retreat!" Ikeda immediately decided to hear Yamamoto's words. In his opinion, there was no way out. If he didn't retreat, he could only consume the troops in his hands.
As this was said, the recruit Wei immediately conveyed Ikeda's meaning, so the soldiers rescued the trapped wounded, and then helped him walk on the way back, leaving behind a large number of corpses of the Japanese puppet army in the rocks.
"What a Japanese devil has finally retreated!" Zhang Shaozong excitedly tightened the telescope in his hand, and shouted loudly when he saw the Japanese devil retreating, almost all his brothers' attention was looking at him.
Wang Si was very calm. He acted very steadily from beginning to end. Even if the Japanese retreated at this time, he did not show any happy expression, because in his opinion, all this was what he expected and was not worth being happy at all.
"Group, have something to eat!" At this time, the captain and adjutant brought cans to Zhang Shaozong and said to Zhang Shaozong.
Because the Japanese retreated, Zhang Shaozong felt much more relaxed. After hearing the words of the captain's adjutant, he immediately put down the telescope in his hand, reached out to take the can, and said to the captain's adjutant: "The battle was really beautiful today. Not only did he eliminate so many Japanese and puppet troops, we have not lost or injured a brother yet, so please feel free!"
"Room, you have said several times!" said the captain and adjutant at this time. "It is a happy thing to repel the Japanese, but what should we do next? Where should we go?"
Indeed, the Second Regiment all surrendered to the enemy, and they had no way to contact the military headquarters. For them, the road ahead was very slim and they didn't know where to go.
"I don't know how the third regiment is going!" Zhang Shaozong was also a little confused. After experiencing the fire between their first regiment and the second regiment, and fighting a battle to survive from the cracks between the Japanese and the puppet troops, he became a little tired.
"The Japanese have infiltrated the brigade headquarters and the second regiment, and the situation of the third regiment should not be very good!" The captain and adjutant replied. At this moment, they had no chance to take care of anything else. First, think about what they should do. The most important thing at the moment.
"These are not something we are worried about for the time being. The big problem facing us is how to find the military headquarters and our large army." Wang Si said at this time.
Now they have become motherless children again. Surviving in barren mountains and rivers is not easy. They can only set one goal, and then everyone will work together to do this goal. Only in this way can they get out of this dilemma and get out of the surrounding Japanese to clamp them.
