Chapter 191 Tell Duan Peng to find Yamamoto Ikki’s escape route for me!
"Grenade!"
As the captain of the special forces team, Yamamoto Kazuki is extremely familiar with the whistling sound in the sky.
Because that sound was exactly the sound of the special small grenades flying in the air fired by the grenade launchers that the Japanese liked to use the most!
Yamamoto Ikki remembered very clearly that the special forces members who had just gone up did not carry grenade launchers.
Moreover, based on the sound of the small grenade, he could tell that it was flying towards him.
Therefore, as soon as Yamamoto Kazuki heard the sound of the small grenade flying, he loudly reminded the other special forces members around him.
At the same time, he rushed to the cliff and squatted down against the cliff wall, trying to minimize his exposure area.
I have to say that Yamamoto Ikki's combat skills are really high.
From the moment he heard the sound, in less than a second, he made the best evasive plan based on the nearby terrain.
The small grenade shot from the top of the cliff would definitely not fall vertically. With such a high cliff, no matter how the shooting angle of the grenade launcher is adjusted, there will always be a certain blind spot.
And this blind spot is this small area near the cliff.
At the same time, because there is a sloping earth slope under the cliff, if you hide on the earth slope and lie down, you can really avoid the attack of the grenade launcher.
But Yamamoto Ikki thought of this point. The other Japanese devils did not have the same high physical fitness as Yamamoto Ikki.
Although most of the Japanese soldiers recognized the sound as the small grenades fired from the grenade launcher.
Although they could hear it, many Japanese soldiers in the special forces recognized that it was the sound of a flying grenade, but they did not have the reaction ability of Yamamoto Ikki.
Even though Yamamoto Ikki gave a warning at the first moment, by the time many Japanese soldiers reacted and began to dodge as they had been trained, the small grenade had successfully fallen.
More than a dozen small grenades fell from the air onto the open space below the cliff. For a moment, the entire area below the cliff was filled with flying dust.
……
"Submachine gun team, push forward!"
The company commander who came with Qin Yangming saw that the Japanese soldiers who climbed up the cliff had stopped moving, and subconsciously gave the order.
They planned to have the submachine gun team in the company go up with their submachine guns, and then have the grenade team throw grenades to the bottom of the cliff to eliminate the Japanese devils at the bottom of the cliff.
"Fuck you! Shoot me again with the heavy machine gun!"
When Qin Yangming saw the company commander holding a 20-shot Mauser pistol and preparing to charge with the submachine gun team, he simply raised his hand and pinned the man to the ground.
Then order the heavy machine guns to continue firing and fire another round at the area at the top of the cliff.
Although the Japanese soldiers who climbed up have stopped making any noise, who knows if any of them are pretending to be dead?
If someone pretends to be dead, he will become a target as soon as our submachine gun team leaves the position.
The company he brought with him was not composed of veterans of the original Pioneer Battalion. Only the squad leaders and group leaders were veterans of the Pioneer Battalion, and the rest were new recruits.
In terms of combat effectiveness, they are at most on par with ordinary Japanese devils. If they were to engage in a shootout with Yamamoto Ikki's special forces team, they would definitely not gain any advantage.
If there are still some Japanese soldiers alive, then our soldiers will be in trouble.
What's more, there is no shortage of ammunition. It is better to consume a little more ammunition in exchange for safety than to let the soldiers risk their lives.
Zhang Haoming didn't want his soldiers to be sacrificed in this situation.
"Lin Sanhuo, you bastard! I've told you so many times that you must not take any risks. If a problem can be solved by consuming ammunition, we must not allow the soldiers to risk their lives to solve it!"
Qin Yangming patted the company commander who was about to lead the charge and warned him.
Lin Sanhuo shrank his neck as he listened to what Qin Yangming said...
"Captain, I, I saw that there was no movement from the Japanese, so I asked the submachine gun team to move over there..."
"Bullshit, what do you mean there is no movement? I bet that the Japanese soldiers who came up were beaten by us, even if all the Japanese soldiers who came up were killed.
But I am sure there are still some Japanese soldiers hanging on the cliff. If our soldiers rush over to check the situation,
Those Japanese soldiers who haven't come up yet will definitely seize the opportunity to climb up and attack our soldiers.
By then our soldiers will also be in front, and the heavy machine guns’ firing range will be directly blocked, so our soldiers who rush forward will only die in vain.”
Lin Sanhuo listened to what Qin Yangming said and spoke with some disbelief.
“Captain, that’s not the case… Although our Sixth Company is a new company, the combat effectiveness of everyone is not bad.
I saw nothing special about those little devils. We haven't even had a single injured soldier appear so far...
Just now a young soldier was burned by the barrel of a machine gun."
"Hey, I've told you so many times, never underestimate the combat capability of the Japs, how come you're just a fool who just lets it go in one ear and out the other?
I have already said that the nature of this group of devils is similar to that of the assault platoon. Even if the combat effectiveness of this group of devils is not as good as that of the assault platoon, it is not much different...
What? Do you think the assault platoon’s combat effectiveness is poor?
Do you want me to arrange for the assault platoon to have an exercise with your Sixth Company to see how strong your Sixth Company is?"
Qin Yangming listened to what Lin Sanhuo said and looked at him with a smile.
"Um, Captain, I'll listen to you... I think it's better to play another round..."
After listening to what Qin Yangming said, Lin Sanhuo turned around and continued to lie on the position and attack the Japanese soldiers towards the cliff.
Under Qin Yangming's command, the heavy machine gunner inserted another ammunition belt and launched a new round of attack on the position where the Japanese devils had just been.
The soldiers in each team who were equipped with grenade launchers also began to install the grenades and fired them at the edge of the cliff.
As the heavy machine gun opened fire again, the Japanese soldiers who had been crawling beside the bodies of their companions, using them to avoid bullets and preparing to attack when the Eighth Route Army arrived were dumbfounded.
At first, a few Japanese soldiers thought that the Eighth Route Army was short of ammunition. After just using such strong firepower, they must not have much ammunition left.
Moreover, he and his companions did not fight back, but simply pretended to be dead using the bodies of their companions.
When the Eighth Route Army arrives, we can seize the opportunity to launch a counterattack against them.
By then, relying on their marksmanship and the submachine guns in their hands, they will be able to eliminate the Eighth Route Army, and then take advantage of the opportunity that the Eighth Route Army blends in with them and the soldiers in the rear dare not shoot at will to rush into the Eighth Route Army's position.
As long as they enter the Eighth Route Army's position, they can kill the Eighth Route Army however they want with their combat effectiveness.
But the idea is wonderful, and the reality is cruel.
The Eighth Route Army did not come over to inspect as they expected. Instead, they continued to use heavy machine guns to shoot at their position.
And because the corpse indicated the location, the Eighth Route Army's heavy machine guns specifically fired at the location of the corpse.
Even if the Japanese corpses also had bulletproof vests, when facing heavy machine guns that could penetrate even their tiny tanks, how could the bulletproof vests on the Japanese bodies, which could only prevent rifle bullets from penetrating at a certain distance, possibly block the shooting of heavy machine guns?
What's more, the heavy machine guns continued to fire.
Soon, the bodies of the Japanese soldiers on the cliff were shot through by heavy machine guns. The bullets passed through the bodies of the Japanese soldiers and shot at the Japanese soldiers hiding in the back.
"Didn't they say that the Eighth Route Army lacked weapons and ammunition?
Can someone explain what is going on?!"
A Japanese soldier pretending to be dead watched several other Japanese soldiers being pierced to death by bullets, and angrily cursed the intelligence officers who said that the Eighth Route Army lacked ammunition.
But soon, the little Japanese soldier could no longer curse.
Because a heavy machine gun had aimed at his position and fired a series of bullets.
At the same time, as more than a dozen rifle grenades were fired at the top of the cliff, the Japanese soldiers who were holding on to ropes and hiding on the cliff were shaken off the cliff by the shock waves of the rifle grenade explosions.
Then he fell to the ground and died.
……
Baihu Ridge, in the underground arsenal.
"Boss, you should clean up and get ready first."
The brigade commander brought his guards to the underground armory and persuaded the boss who was still looking at the map and assigning tasks to each unit.
Although the brigade commander was very confident that Qin Yangming could eliminate Yamamoto Ikki's special forces team, for the sake of the boss's safety, the brigade commander still hoped that the boss could pack up and prepare for retreat.
After all, it's always better to be safe than sorry.
After all, the Japanese special forces have already reached Baihu Ridge. Who knows if there are other Japanese who have sneaked into Baihu Ridge?
What if some fish slipped through the net and sneaked into Baihu Ridge?
If the boss is in danger by then, it will be a big trouble.
Moreover, several Japanese spies were captured near the headquarters last time. No one can guarantee that there are no Japanese spies in Baihu Ridge.
It would be troublesome if some Japanese special forces soldiers sneaked into Baihuling with the help of spies and came to the boss.
The boss listened to what the brigade commander said, looked up and glanced at the brigade commander, then looked at the map and spoke calmly.
“If you can still let the Japanese special forces get to us at Baihu Ridge, in this underground arsenal, in the Vanguard Regiment, and under the heavy defense of your 386th Brigade and the Taiyue Military Region troops…, I think you, the brigade commander, and Qin Yangming, the commander of the Vanguard Regiment, will both lose your job.
It just so happens that the logistics department is planning to build a new breeding farm. If you two can't get rid of this group of Japs and they get to my place, then you two can go to the breeding farm to feed the pigs.
Since you can't fight, then just go feed the pigs.
Just a few dozen devils and you asked me to prepare for retreat, how dare you say that! "
"No, Boss, those are not ordinary devils, they are..."
"bump!"
“I don’t care if they are just ordinary devils!
Tell Qin Yangming, even if those devils coming over are the Japanese Emperor’s guards!
He has to chop off those little devils' heads for me!"
Listening to what the brigade commander said, the boss slammed the table and yelled at the brigade commander.
“I don’t know how you set up your defense!
The Japanese actually got close to Baihu Ridge!
And it was by chance that we discovered this small group of Japanese soldiers!"
The boss was also a little angry. The Japanese had already reached Baihu Ridge, and they were discovered only by accident.
Moreover, it had only been two days since he arrived at Baihuling when the Japanese special forces came over!
If no one tipped off, the boss would never believe that the Japanese would know that the Eighth Route Army headquarters was at Baihu Ridge.
What’s even more infuriating is that the Japanese’s Fourth Brigade is almost becoming meat in the Eighth Route Army’s pot.
Now the Fourth Brigade’s meat is almost cooked on fire.
As a result, the Japanese even dared to send a small force to Baihuling to carry out a decapitation operation against the Eighth Route Army headquarters!
How much do they look down on the Eighth Route Army? Do they really think that the Eighth Route Army is still like before, unable to even equip itself with guns?
"Tell Qin Yangming that fighting with small forces is not his strong point, right?
Tell him to leave all of Yamamoto Ikki’s special forces to me!
It just so happens that the army needs something to offer as a sacrifice before going to war, so let Qin Yangming bring Yamamoto Ikki's special forces as a sacrifice for me!"
"Yes!"
After listening to what the boss said, the brigade commander said nothing more and directly asked someone to convey what the boss said to Qin Yangming.
……
"Xiao Qin, the brigade commander asked me to tell you that the boss is very angry about Yamamoto Ikki's special forces sneaking into Baihu Ridge, and he asked you to keep Yamamoto Ikki's special forces.
The boss also said that when the army goes to war, there must be something to offer as a sacrifice, and Yamamoto Ikki’s special forces team can be used as a sacrifice!
Anyway, it's the same as what the brigade commander said, you can do whatever you want."
Just when Qin Yangming was about to take the soldiers to check the situation before the exam, the political commissar of the brigade called directly and relayed what the boss said to Qin Yangming.
Qin Yangming also immediately made a guarantee that all of Yamamoto Ikki's special forces would be kept!
"Send a telegram to Duan Peng and have him return quickly with the assault platoon. When the old devil Yamamoto Ikki sees that he has been exposed, he will most likely run away.
If Yamamoto Ikki's special forces team wanted to retreat, they could only retreat towards Tongshi Town.
Tell Duan Peng to find a way out for Yamamoto Ikki. If he lets any of them get away, I'll hit him on the head!"
"Yes!"
After receiving Qin Yangming's order, Goudan quickly turned around to find a radio station to send a message to Duan Peng, asking Duan Peng to quickly lead the assault platoon to attack Yamamoto Ikki's retreat.
Qin Yangming led the Sixth Company and quickly moved towards the cliff with the help of the individual shelters reserved on the top of the cliff.
The snipers, machine gunners, and submachine gun teams in the Sixth Company all aimed their weapons at the edge of the cliff. As long as there was a Japanese soldier who dared to show his head on the edge of the cliff, the soldiers in the rear could guarantee that they would blow his head off in the first possible moment.
