Chapter 1125: Bait
The devil's spearhead unit appeared in the field of vision of their brethren with a military flag on their bayonets.
Looking at the shadowy ghost soldiers who appeared in the straggler line, the atmosphere in the air suddenly became tense.
"The devil is here, ready to fight!"
The veteran squad leader took a hard puff of the last cigarette, took it out of his mouth and screwed it deep into the dirt, then grabbed his 38 rifle and put it in front of him.
The brethren in the nearby foxhole all gasped and clicked on the bolt to feed the bullet into the chamber, and then began to aim at the vague devil figures.
The number of devil soldiers was not large, only more than 100 people, they scattered and walked, they were covered in dirty bloodstains, and they had already fought a vicious battle with the Chinese officers and soldiers who were blocking along the river in front of them.
Lieutenant Devil, who was walking in front, saw the blue sky and white sun flag fluttering on the dirt bag not far away, he stopped and gestured to the troops behind.
The devil soldiers who were advancing in a skirmish line squatted down on the spot one after another, the muzzle of the black hole pointed forward, and the machine gun crew quickly occupied a favorable position and set up the light machine gun.
Lieutenant Devil crossed his legs, raised the Cao Chang mirror hanging from his neck, and observed the Chinese army position in front of him.
In the devil's long mirror, the Chinese army position in front of him can be seen at a glance, and the Chinese army has built a position on the ridge of a hill, and the Chinese officers and soldiers who are waiting for the day can be clearly seen.
I can't see clearly behind the ridge line of the hills, and I don't know how many people are hiding behind it, and whether there is a position.
Soon, Lieutenant Devil put down Cao Changjing, and he had already judged through his own observation that this was a small Chinese force that was blocking them head-on.
"A small group of the Chinese army has been found blocking the position at the front, and I ask for an artillery bombardment!"
Lieutenant Devil beckoned to a communications soldier next to him and ordered.
"Hey!"
The devil messenger bowed heavily, then turned around and rushed back quickly.
"Woohoo...... Bang! Thundered! β
Soon, the devil mortar shells in the rear swept over the heads of these devil spearheads, and smashed towards the Chinese blocking position in front with a piercing whistle.
The ground shook violently, and large clumps of dirt and turf were thrown out by the explosion, and the billowing smoke formed a wall of smoke that enveloped the Chinese position.
As soon as the cannon stopped, the devil's lieutenant pulled out his saber at his waist and swung it forward.
The devil soldiers, who had already been half-crouched and ready for duty, immediately divided into three attack formations and swooped towards the position shrouded in gunpowder smoke in front, like wolves smelling fishy.
These devils who can be transferred into the top soldiers are elites, and they pounced forward without shouting, but lunging forward silently.
Except for the sound of hurried footsteps and rapid gasps, there was only the fierce murderous aura.
One by one, the devil soldiers scurried forward with hunched waists, and their speed was astonishing, and they soon rushed into the range of the brethren.
The veteran squad leader of the outpost squad raised his head, looked at the crooked and almost overturned broken flag of the bombing, and then looked left and right, the two juniors who were talking and laughing just now had been blown out of the foxhole, and their lives and deaths were unknown.
The brothers farther away were shrouded in smoke and could not see clearly, nor did they know whether they were dead or alive.
But now no matter what, I can't take care of it, and the devil has already pounced on him.
Looking at the devils who rushed forward one by one, the veteran squad leader shook the dirt on his body, raised his rifle and began to aim.
The running devils were hard to hit, and they kept doing tactical maneuvers to dodge the shots, and the veteran took a full half a minute to pull the trigger.
"Bang!"
A ghost soldier who was hunched forward was pierced by the bullet, and the strong impact of the bullet directly lifted it half a meter away, and then rolled heavily to the ground and wailed.
The sudden gunfire frightened the rest of the devils, they didn't expect that there were still living people in the position that had been cleared by artillery fire, and they also half-squatted and fired back.
"Puff puff!"
The bullets whizzed over, and columns of smoke rose up, forming a barrage of death, and those who touched it died, and those who touched it died.
The veteran squad leader rolled and changed the firing position, and with a quick movement, he loaded the bullet again, and raised his hand to the devil who got up and pounced forward again.
The veteran's marksmanship was practiced on the battlefield with the head of a little devil, and the marksmanship was accurate and scary.
A bloody hole appeared in the steel helmet of a newly emerging devil, and then his body couldn't stop falling backwards.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Shots rang out on both sides of the flank, and the gunfire of the veteran squad leader made the surviving brothers from the shelling also react and start shooting at the devils.
A round of mortar bombardment by the devil soldiers took away most of the brothers in the squad, and only five people remained in the infantry squad of more than ten people.
The devil also knew that there were not many Chinese officers and soldiers alive, and the sparse and pitiful firepower emboldened them, and they didn't take a detour, nor did they dodge secretly, and directly held their bayonets and began to rush forward.
The firepower of the five brothers at the outpost was too sparse to suppress the devils at all, especially as the devils' grenadiers and machine gun crews kept up, and their situation was even more dangerous.
"Bang!"
A grenade fell, and one of the brothers who was looking down to press the bullet into the chamber of the gun was immediately torn to pieces, and the exploding flesh splattered in all directions.
There was something on the head of the veteran squad leader, and the veteran squad leader touched it with his hand, and it was a hot broken palm, stained with blood on his hand.
"Da Da Da-"
"Puff puff!"
The brother next to him let out a scream, and he leaned out of the foxhole and fired, half of his body was broken to pieces by light machine guns, and he fell to the ground, seeing that he would not survive.
"Boom!"
The devil had already pounced, and the veteran squad leader unscrewed the grenade and threw it out, and the two hideous devils were blown up and flew to both sides, and then rolled to the ground and wailed loudly.
Although the Northern Jiangsu Corps built a small workshop in Huaiyin to produce home-made grenades, due to the influence of various factors, the power of the explosion was not as good as that of the devil's grenade.
"Whoosh-"
The whistling bullets kept passing by, although the veteran squad leader kept dodging and firing, but in the end, his body was still beaten, and the bullet punched a bloody hole in his chest, and the gurgling blood couldn't stop gushing out.
The veteran squad leader collapsed to the ground, and several devils with bright bayonets quickly surrounded them, their faces full of smirks.
"Teng Teng Tengβ"
The muffled roar characteristic of the Concealed Civilian Type 24 heavy machine gun rang out, and a furious stream of bullets swept towards the devil soldiers.
The infantry squad at the outpost is just a live decoy to lure devils forward, while the guerrillas' concealed heavy machine guns are the killing machines.
The machine gunner's eyes were full of tears, in order for the heavy machine gun to shoot the devil, a brother in the infantry squad died, and he had to kill it back!
The bullet plowed along the ground, and the devils on the trajectory trembled and rose up in a cloud of blood mist, and the rest of the devils were dodging one after another.
"Grenadier! Shoot! β
Seeing that more than twenty people rushed to the front fell in a pool of blood in an instant, the devil's lieutenant roared loudly.
"Poof!"
The bullet pierced a bloody hole in Lieutenant Devil's head, and the devil's hideous face froze.
