Chapter 297: Blocking the Enemy
Huo Xiaoshan only had the opportunity to carefully observe the situation on the battlefield now, and saw that this Chen Wafang Village was really not big, and it was only dozens of households, but it was on the main road of this small village that it was densely packed with the corpses of Chinese and Japanese soldiers!
The corpses were pressed together in various postures, some of them had already been stacked up four or five layers, and the blood on the side of the road had already flowed into a stream, and with Huo Xiaoshan's eyesight, he couldn't count how many people had fallen here at this moment!
At the same time, there were three tanks still emitting black smoke parked on the road full of corpses, the tracks of the tanks had been blown off, and the bodies of the soldiers of the Yunnan Army who had been crushed could be seen under the tracks of some tanks.

Obviously, this is an encounter, the two sides are instantly twisted together, and their own support army is too late after all!
With a "plop", the five soldiers of the Dian Army knelt down directly on the road covered with corpses, with tears in their eyes, and kowtowed three times in a row to the front.
"What's the situation?" Huo Xiaoshan asked one of the soldiers who had already stood up.
War is so cruel, you can kowtow three heads to pay tribute to the dead, this is still in the case of victory.
"Of the more than 500 people in our battalion, there are only five of us left." The soldier replied indignantly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the quartermaster department couldn't help but gasp, no wonder the corpses were all over the ground, if the ratio of casualties on both sides was 1:1, in this village of dozens of households, more than 1,000 people fell, and the scale of this casualty has exceeded the street battle in Taierzhuang!
"What is your mission?" The military situation was urgent, and Huo Xiaoshan didn't have time to think about the grief of the five remaining soldiers of the Dian Army.
The soldier obviously understood this truth, wiped a handful of tears but rubbed himself into a bloody face, the bloodstains, dirt and tears on his face were all rubbed together, he replied: "Block the attack of the Japanese army, and buy time for the other departments to deploy in place." ”
Huo Xiaoshan couldn't help frowning, there was obviously no danger to defend here, and it was not easy to stop the Japanese army's attack.
"How long have you been fighting the Japanese army?" Huo Xiaoshan asked.
"Less than half a day." The soldier replied.
Everyone in the quartermaster department gasped again, and in less than half a day, a battalion was gone!
Right here, the small stone from the other side of the village and the soldiers of another reconnaissance squad ran back quickly, they couldn't care where the corpse under their feet was, and when they ran in front of Huo Xiaoshan, their shoes were already soaked with blood.
"Boss, the devil is here again, I can't stop a squadron!" Little Stone reported.
Everyone's eyes looked at Huo Xiaoshan.
"If we don't come, what are you five going to do?" Huo Xiaoshan asked the soldier of the Dian army.
The soldier of the Dian army looked at Huo Xiaoshan and asked, "We have no plan, if you don't come, do you think the five of us can survive?" ”
Huo Xiaoshan was stunned, this question was indeed asked by himself, isn't it nonsense that he asked?
He no longer hesitated and said, "Withdraw!" ”
The soldiers of the quartermaster immediately turned around and ran, while Hanzi's machine gun squad left four machine guns behind them.
The five soldiers of the Yunnan army naturally withdrew with them, and the time was too tight, and they didn't have time to ask which force this reinforcement that was obviously not subordinate to their own Yunnan army, and where did it come from.
"Too slow, use as fast as you can!" Huo Xiaoshan shouted.
So, everyone took out the speed at which they had just hit the muzzle of the Japanese tank and ran back as if they were deadly.
When they ran out and were three hundred meters away from the entrance of the village, Zheng Youjian ran out from behind a small high post on the side of the road and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"I don't have time to talk to you in detail, have you set up a grenadier?" Huo Xiaoshan asked anxiously.
"Six." Zheng Youjian saw Huo Xiaoshan and them running back in such a hurry, knowing that the situation must be urgent, and hurriedly replied.
"Put the four you carry with you on the shelves, quick! Hanzi light machine gun cover, the rest of the people all retreated to the truck, the mortars don't get out of the car, it's too late, and the grenadiers can be set up as many as they can! Huo Xiaoshan ordered.
There are now more than 10 grenadiers in the Quartermaster's Office, but it is impossible for them to put all the grenadiers on such a small combat slot, because one grenadier requires two people, and if the grenadiers are used too much, the number of other combatants is greatly reduced.
The rest of the grenadiers, including the two mortars captured last time, were all loaded on the trucks behind.
In the past ten days after the street battle in Taierzhuang, it has been the rare and longest training time that the quartermaster department has, and this time has not been wasted, and every soldier has done everything that Huo Xiaoshan has requested, so the operators of grenadiers, including mortars, are not a problem.
Ten grenadiers had already been set up behind the hill, and Huo Xiaoshan had already set up his binoculars to observe the entrance of the village that had just been evacuated.
The enemy has appeared in Chenwafang Village.
After a short pause, the Japanese troops who attacked again rushed out of the village, ignoring the corpses of their comrades who had died in the village.
Huo Xiaoshan put down the binoculars and secretly said Fortunately, there were no tanks, he knew that he was not a god, there was no way to take the Japanese tanks after all, and the two battle defense guns had been left to the Northwest Army, and his team had too few personnel, and that kind of large weapons could not be carried with him anytime and anywhere after all.
Seeing that a large number of Japanese troops were chasing along the road from the village, Huo Xiaoshan asked loudly, "Are you all ready?" ”
"That's it!" The gun emplacements replied in unison.
"Put!" Huo Xiaoshan shouted.
So at this moment, it was like a fireworks festival setting off fireworks, and the sound of "tong" grenade firing and "sizzling" grenade piercing through the air were actually connected, and a moment later, another "sizzle" screaming grenade flew past Huo Xiaoshan and their heads, and it was Shen Chong who also began to fire grenades.
The attacking Japanese army was busy biting the tail of the Chinese army under the orders from above, seeing that this village had been fought so fiercely, but how could they have thought that there would be an ambush outside the village, and there would be grenades flying down from the sky like dumplings?!
At the moment when the grenade exploded, the entire entrance of the village was completely covered by the grenade!
Seeing a thick explosion smoke and dust, the originally yellow Japanese army had been covered, but there were constantly Japanese soldiers whose entire people or stumps and severed arms were thrown up from the smoke and dust, but no Japanese soldiers rushed out of the smoke and dust.
"Withdraw!" Huo Xiaoshan said.
The Japanese were dumbfounded by this sudden blow, and half an hour later, another Japanese army rushed out of the village under the cover of three tanks, but they could no longer find the Chinese troops who attacked them.
The Japanese had to slow down the pace of their march, although they had the cover of tanks.
An hour later, the Japanese troops, who were cautiously moving forward, were attacked again, this time not with grenadiers, but with Maxim heavy machine guns and flat-firing high machine guns.
The thick barrage weaved a web of death that the infantry could not penetrate, and dozens of soldiers were torn to pieces.
The Japanese tanks were not convinced, but after the forward charge, one more was blown up because the infantry behind them was blocked, so the two tanks turned around and ran away.
When the Japanese army brought in heavy artillery two hours later to cover the front, Huo Xiaoshan had already retreated west with his own people and the five soldiers of the Dian Army to a village called Wushengtang, where a brigade of the Dian Army had already marched in place and began to establish a defensive position.
