Chapter 154: Encirclement and Annihilation (5)

Looking at the devil lying on the ground, the company commander did not show mercy to his subordinates, and shouted in time.

"Grenades" the company commander shouted loudly, seeing a group of grenades flying out of the hands of the soldiers, the company commander didn't care about the devil heavy machine gun bullets flying above the trench, and shouted loudly again; "Comrades, rush, kill the devil," after speaking, he was the first to jump out of the trench and rush towards the devil with the barge gun in his hand that had just finished changing the magazine.

"Rush," the soldiers shouted, and under the cover of the smoke of the explosion of the grenade they had just thrown, they quickly jumped out of the trench one by one, holding rifles and shell guns and rushing towards the devil charge formation that was constantly exploding.

At this time, the leader of the devil squadron who led the team was very depressed, and originally thought that the squadron on the opposite position had been completely wiped out by the shelling just now. However, suddenly, a dense rain of bullets swept out of the position close at hand, so that the unprepared imperial army was killed dozens of people at once, why didn't the forced people shoot early, didn't shoot late, but only shot when the soldiers reached the fastest speed and could not dodge the bullets?

Just as the squadron leader was lying on the ground and had not recovered from the depression just now, a whistling sound reached his own ears. The captain of the brigade, who was experienced in combat, immediately realized the danger and quickly raised his head to look at the sky, only to see a group of grenades being thrown from the opposite position.

The explosion of a grenade interrupted his thoughts, and he suddenly felt something pressing down on his back, and something seemed to be left behind his neck. The squadron leader was shocked, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that half of his orderly's head had been cut off by a grenade, and it was dripping with yellow and white. It turned out that the orderly lay on his body in order to save himself, and thinking of this, the squadron leader also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Baga, despicable Shina, I must let you be torn to pieces." The squadron leader yelled loudly. However, the guard company did not give him this opportunity. The sound of grenade explosions had not stopped, and when all the remaining soldiers were still lying on the ground, the guard company on the position had already rushed to the place close at hand, and stabbed the cold bayonets into the body of the devil, and the bullets with hatred were shot by the soldiers into the devil who was still resisting.

When the devils reacted and formed a bayonet formation, the leader of the devil's squadron sadly found that his full squadron of 182 people was now able to stand up with only sixty or seventy people, and these soldiers were still surrounded by the Eighth Route Army, and the two sides were fighting each other with bayonets.

However, the guard company did not seem to give the devils a chance to show their bayonet skills. You must know that the guard company, as the defense force of the regiment headquarters, is equipped with the most melee firepower in the whole regiment, and almost all cadres above the squad leader level are equipped with shell guns, and shell guns, needless to say, are powerful firepower and the best weapons in close combat.

Therefore, in the face of the bayonet formation of the devils in groups of three, the soldiers did not rush forward recklessly, but disrupted their formation after the squad leader next to them killed one or two devils with a pistol. Only then did they rush forward together, relying on the advantage of a large number of people, and used bayonets to solve the remaining devils, and in less than a few minutes, a multi-squad of devils was left with only a dozen cronies around the squadron leader after the soldiers paid the price of more than a dozen casualties.

"Quick, retreat" Looking at the Chinese soldiers who were getting closer and closer, the squadron leader no longer had the courage to hold on with the remaining dozen or so soldiers under his command, and immediately gave the order to retreat. So under the cheering of the soldiers' bullets, a few corpses were left behind, and the squadron leader fled back with less than ten remaining people.

Just as the soldiers had just disengaged from the devil, and just as the company commander was about to give the order to retreat, a whistling sound of shells across the sky pierced through. "Boom, boom, boom" A few shells fell among the fighters, setting off a rain of blood "Quick, retreat, retreat." Looking at the several fighters who were blown up by the shells, the company commander shouted loudly.

Fortunately, this place was only a few dozen meters away from the trench, and by the time the second round of shells came from the devils, the soldiers had already moved away from the battlefield just now, and only one shell fell in the retreating formation of the fighters, overturning several fighters. By the time the third round of shells came from the devils, the soldiers were already hiding in the trenches.

However, what caught the eyes of the fighters was that the place where the soldiers stayed just now had been completely lifted by the devil's mortar, and the corpses that were originally all over the ground, including the fighters and the devils, were now unable to see a complete corpse, all of them were shattered by shells, and there were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and everywhere was full of blood.

"Damn, the devil is really not a human, he doesn't even let go of the corpses, instructor, quick, count the casualties of the soldiers." Looking at the position where shells kept falling in the distance, the company commander said to the instructor beside him.

The casualties were quickly counted, and the whole company lost a total of 44 soldiers and 12 were seriously wounded after the battle just now, and the bodies of 12 of them could not be brought back and were destroyed under the fire of the devils. Almost all of the remaining soldiers were more or less slightly wounded, listening to the casualties reported by the instructor, the company commander couldn't help but scold, "Little devil, you brute, I will definitely let you all die well"

"Let the fighters seize the time to rest, send the seriously wounded to the village for treatment, and let the fighters of the reconnaissance company reinforce a platoon. I think the devil's next attack will be more violent, so we must be mentally prepared, after a while, if I die, the commander of the reconnaissance company will replace the commander, followed by the instructor of the guard company, the instructor of the reconnaissance company, in short, no matter how many people can be left in our two companies in the end, we must hold the position, hold on until the arrival of reinforcements, and we must not let the devil rush into the village. The company commander said to a few cadres around him.

Just when the soldiers of the first regiment and the second regiment were waiting for the devil's more fierce attack, all the troops of the third regiment participating in the roundabout attack were all in place, and the Thunderbolt Company also set up the Thunderbolt on the position prepared in advance, and loaded the propellant pack, waiting for the order of the regiment commander Wang Nanhu.

"The first battalion is in place, and the second battalion is in place at any time, and the third battalion is in place at any time, and it can attack at any time." The regiment commander constantly listened to the chief of staff report on the situation of each battalion. "Okay, order, the Thunderbolt Company will fire five consecutive rounds at Bai Caoyan, who is raising his hand from the enemy, and the troops will immediately launch a general attack after seeing the signal flare." The regiment commander finally gave the order to fight.

The soldiers of the artillery company who received the order immediately lit the fuses of the 12 thunderbolts, and watched the sparks on the leads getting closer and closer to the barrels, and the hearts of the soldiers became more and more excited. A dull roar sounded, and 12 explosive packs were thrown high by the thunder, swirling in the sky, and flew towards the position guarded by the devils.

The soldiers, who had never seen a thunderstorm before, were staring blankly at the increasingly large shells in the sky, and when they were puzzled, 12 explosive packs had already landed. "Boom, boom, boom" An explosion shook the mountain, and waves of explosive packet explosions swept in all directions, pushing everything it came across.

"Ah, it's the explosives bag, how did the people throw the explosives bag over?" The captain looked at the dozen or so craters that had been blown out on the highway and said dumbfoundedly. However, the next scene surprised him even more.

Because through the telescope in his hand, he found something that people were unwilling to believe. I saw that in the nearest explosion point, around the center of the explosion, within a radius of several tens of meters, almost everything was swept away by the explosion waves. Among them were cars overturned, ammunition thrown far away, and soldiers knocked out one after another. It had been half a minute since the explosion, but in that half a minute, there was not a single moving object within a radius of several tens of meters.

"Baga, how can this be, when did the people of China have such advanced weapons, Chief of Staff, quickly, immediately let the soldiers hide, disperse and hide" The captain scolded loudly when he saw the terrifying lethality of the explosive pack, and at the same time felt glad that the shells did not hit the vicinity.

Suddenly, a whistling sound reached the ears of everyone in the headquarters, and the whistling sound became louder and louder, and the soldiers who had been leading troops for a long time knew that the artillery shells were flying towards the headquarters. "Lie down" an artillery staff officer next to him shouted loudly, and at the same time, the team leader was also crushed to the ground by the orderly soldiers around him.

"Boom" A loud roar reached everyone's ears, and with the sound of the explosion, everyone in the command also lost consciousness at the same time.

Five rounds of 60 rounds of explosives were dumped on the road, which was only more than 500 meters long, and you can imagine what kind of scene it would be on the road. The regimental commander raised his binoculars and saw that there was hardly a complete car visible on the entire road. And the most obvious is that dozens of craters of explosive packets exploded before their eyes. The commander of the "flare" regiment did not put down the telescope. Coldly ordered.

The three flares of "Bang Bang Bang" took off into the air and bloomed in brilliant colors in the sky. "Rush, tick, tick" The shouts of the soldiers, the trumpets of the charge. The whole white grass was boiling again.

Through the binoculars, Wang Nanhu could clearly see the entire battlefield, and the soldiers of the three battalions, like three sharp knives, plunged into the enemy's position, and under the intensive strafing of nine light machine guns in each battalion, they hardly encountered any major resistance. The only resistance was also beaten into a honeycomb by the fighters with machine guns.

In less than five minutes, the fighters who rushed in from three directions met at the center of the gathering of devils. Next, the three battalions immediately dispersed and changed their own attacking formation. With the company and the platoon as the unit, slowly compress the remaining positions of the devils. In the end, less than one squadron of troops left in the entire Devil's Baggage Brigade was scattered by the fighters in three smaller and smaller encirclements.

The dozens of devils in each encirclement are not enough for a full-fledged battalion to even plug their teeth. Under the cover of four heavy machine guns and grenadiers from each battalion, the fighters did not hesitate to rush into the encirclement and fight with the devils one-on-one with bayonets

And it was at this time that the unexpected happened.
