The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 963 Countdown to Arrest

... At this moment, Shimada does not expect to completely wipe out this mysterious Eighth Route Army that suddenly attacked.

He knows very well that it is not easy to destroy the enemy hiding in the dark, especially this place is the base camp and lair of the Eighth Route Army, but after the two sides exchanged fire, he and his party were entangled by the Eighth Route Army troops, and his entire special airborne troops It is possible to fall into the encirclement of the main combat force of the Eighth Route Army.

When that happens, the Empire's Airborne Troops will be doomed.

Right now, for Shimada, the most urgent thing is how to transfer the radio station in the cave, and then get rid of the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army troops who may be hiding in the dark.

In order to continue the final combat mission of raiding the Eighth Route Army arsenal and the general headquarters.

After more than an hour, Shimada, who had exhausted his patience, once again dispatched an action team, a team of about [-] or [-] people, who were the first to be exposed and moved towards the cave.

Attempt to "rescue" the radio station hidden in the cave.

It was still quiet all around.

Shimada even comforted himself in the bottom of his heart.

Maybe I was too nervous.

Perhaps there are no Eighth Route Army troops lurking around here.

But he knew very well that this was just a subconscious fluke.

Judging from the current situation, it is almost an established fact that the Ministry of Communications was attacked by the mysterious troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Otherwise, Major Nakamura and the Imperial Warriors guarding the Communications Department would never disappear due to neglect of duty.

After a moment.

Seven or eight little devils hurriedly lifted the very heavy radio out of the cave entrance.

The little devil who couldn't get his hands in the surrounding area was holding a hundred-style submachine gun hanging on his chest, watching his surroundings vigilantly.

Not far away, Shimada Shozo, who was hiding in the dark, also arranged a lot of snipers in the team, holding Japanese-style [-]-style sniper rifles, and vigilantly paying attention to the troubles around him.

Shimada Shozo's entire strings were tense.

With the concerted efforts of several devils, the bulky radio began to gradually move outward.

At first the terrain was relatively flat, it was a relatively raised flat land near the cave, and then it was a relatively steep downhill.

Just when the entire station is connected to the edge area of ​​​​the bottom.

boo——

The sound wasn't too loud, it was like someone slapped their hands in the woods far away.

Compared with the normal gunshots, this kind of sound is almost negligible, but after abruptly breaking the dead silence around it, it was also faintly transmitted.

Due to the distance between the two sides.

Bullets fly faster and light travels faster than sound.

In the line of sight of Shimada Shozo's binoculars, an imperial soldier who was carrying the radio trembled and suddenly fell down.

It was then that it spread, it sounded like a slap.

The angle of the opponent's sniping is very tricky, and the chosen target seems to have been calculated in advance. The devil soldier who was knocked out was carrying the radio, on the outer edge, bearing more weight, and the most important position.

After the devil was sniped and fell to the ground, the strength to lift the radio disappeared, and the rest of the devils suddenly felt the pressure at hand increased.

Nearly losing balance, the entire station almost fell to the ground.

"The enemy attack is a sniper from the Eighth Route, hurry up and take cover immediately!"

Commanding a group of little devils to carry the radio station, the captain quickly ordered.

The little devils who were carrying the radio quickly put down the radio, and then they prostrated themselves on the ground, avoiding the direction of the bullets, and looking for cover.

There were still painful groans coming from the ground.

The little devil who was knocked down was only pierced through the abdomen, and the bullet did not hurt the vitals. Apart from the blood flowing out and the whole body being severely injured, he would not die immediately.

Even without anyone dressing up and treating him, the wounded little devil can still live for a long time.

"Bastard, this damn eight-way sniper is deliberately hurting us!"

Captain Guizi cursed angrily, lying on the ground in a rather ugly posture, not daring to raise his head at all.

At this time, the area they are in is very unfavorable to them. The surrounding area is bare, and the terrain is relatively elevated, while the surrounding forest area is relatively low. In the sight of Fang Eighth Route Army snipers.

The opponent's Eighth Route Army obviously took advantage of the lush woods to lurk in it.

The enemy is in the dark, but the Japanese army is in the light.

The opponent's sniper rifle seemed to be far more advanced than his Japanese Type [-] and Type [-] sniper rifles.

With just a single gunshot, even the most experienced Captain Guizi could not accurately determine the exact location where the Eighth Route Army sniper was hiding.

On the other hand, Shimada Shozo, who was farther away, hardly heard the sound of the sniper rifle with the silencer installed, but saw his soldiers being sniped.

This scene also completely dispelled his last fluke mentality.

Sure enough, a special combat unit of the Eighth Route Army was ambushed nearby.

...Ye Min hid himself behind the trunk of the tree, turned his body slightly, his sniper sight penetrated through a few sparse leaves, and he could clearly see the situation in the area near the entrance of the cave not far away.

He shot the shot just now.

Just as the ghost captain guessed, Ye Min deliberately wounded the little devil instead of killing him directly.

A wounded person is far more troublesome to the devil than a dead team member.

Surround the corpse for help.

This is a classic style of secret sniping in special operations.

Although it is so cruel and inhumane.

But what kind of humanity do little devils who are like animals still talk about?

The trunk of the hidden ancient tree is thick and tall, and under the trunk where Ye Min is hiding, there is another trunk that protrudes horizontally. It is another sniper who also serves as Ye Min's observer.

"Deputy team, all the devils are down, it's not easy for us to start!"

he said in a low voice.

Ye Min replied: "It's just a matter of exhaustion, who is more patient than who, right now this little devil has been completely locked in the cave area by us.

The bait we have on hand to restrain the devils is already more sufficient. In addition to the radio station, we have added these dozen or so little devils. I want to see what happens to the rest of the devils. "

"By the way, Erhu, has the news spread yet?"

"Don't worry, the deputy team is fully prepared. We have three artillery groups nearby, and we can provide fire reinforcements at any time according to the coordinates we provided.

In addition, the chief of staff has also arranged several encirclement and suppression troops to advance gradually from all directions. After our battle starts, even if we can't kill all the small army of devils in front of us.

Subsequent collection of the net can also catch them all in one go, and none of them can escape. "

Ye Min nodded, and explained again: "Try to catch as many people as possible, we have guaranteed the chief of staff!"

"Eh!"

……

"idiot!"

Shimada Shozo's face was very ugly at the moment, this hidden cat was really cunning, it just hid in the dark and attacked, and never attacked from the front.

Not to mention that he failed to transfer the radio station successfully, an action team even got in and was completely covered by the opponent's firepower.

This is not the way to go.

As time went on, he worried that his situation would get worse.

There may be troops from the Eighth Route Army appearing in all directions at any time.

"Sir, what are we going to do now?"

How to do?
Shimada's right hand clenched into a fist, and he also wanted to know what to do?
The current situation is very bad. The enemy's Eighth Route Army is lurking in the dark. Judging from the attack just now, the commander on the opposite side is extremely cautious and cunning, and it makes people gnash their teeth.

He deliberately hid in the dark, and didn't take any direct action, just like an old cat with a sure chance of winning, teasing the mouse mercilessly.

It is impossible to judge the hiding position of the enemy's Eighth Route Army, and the battle cannot be carried out.

After thinking for a moment, Shimada gritted his teeth.

It seems that he can't take this radio station with him today.

"... But it's obvious that Eighth Route didn't blow up our radio station, perhaps it was intended to be used as a bait. Or maybe, they are also reluctant to part with such a radio station.

I can only think of a way later! "

"Second group, throw smoke bombs immediately, cover the first group to evacuate first!"

"Hi!"

After the order was issued, looking at the soldiers who secretly set up the grenades and prepared the smoke bombs, Shimada Shozo's mouth suddenly crossed a smear of viciousness, and then ordered:
"Three groups, prepare incendiary bombs, and throw them towards the north!"

"Sir, will Balu hide in that area?"

Shimada sneered: "Who knows? Maybe it's there, or maybe it's not. It's always throwing incendiary bombs to buy us a certain amount of time to evacuate."

"Hi!"

The devil moved very quickly. First, a few smoke bombs were quickly thrown into the cave area, and then a considerable number of incendiary bombs were thrown towards the forest area due north, immediately reflecting pieces of fire.

Ye Min, who was hiding behind a tree trunk in the distance, saw the battle and couldn't help but curse:
"You son of a bitch, this trick is really poisonous! Fortunately, there is still a lot of snow in the winter, otherwise it will definitely cause a fire, grandma."

"Er Hu, send me the message immediately, after the devil's smoke has completely dispersed, throw our ether shells over.

I'd like to see if our ether shells are better, or his little devil's smoke bombs. "

"Yes!"

... The fire in the forest area in the north is still flickering. Just as Ye Min said, fortunately, there have been a few snowfalls in winter, and the devil's incendiary bombs quickly ignited only some of the snow that fell, and some were dry and dead. trees.

And some evergreen trees, and when the fire passes through the snow on the ground, they are gradually reduced.

The fire didn't spread too fast, and maybe it didn't need the Eighth Route Army to take action, and it would be completely extinguished because of the snow all over the ground.

The smoke bomb that the little devil threw at the entrance of the cave quickly released smoke, completely covering the entire open area with higher terrain.

The gunners arranged by Ye Min fired a certain number of ether shells at the same time, throwing them under the cover of smoke.

These ether shells, which were newly developed by a team of arsenals, were launched by 60 mortars, and with the aid of the mortar's sights, they landed very accurately.

After landing, the ether gas emitted immediately is colorless and odorless. Due to the strong concentration, unless there is a strong wind.

Otherwise, within a range of seven or eight meters around, the ether gas will not dissipate in a short time.

For the devil, the only detectable thing is the traces of the ether shells fired, but at this moment they are perfectly covered by the smoke.

But said at this time the interior of the smoke.

After the smoke completely dissipated, the devil captain in it gave an order: "Get out!"

As he said that, he was the first to stand up, but just as he stood up, something slammed around him, as if it had hit the ground.

This sudden sound was like a bolt from the blue to these devil soldiers.

The captain hurriedly shouted: "Lie down!"

He was terrified in his heart, thinking that the Eighth Route Army had made a move in secret.

The next moment, the little devils who had just got up quickly fell to the ground again, covering their heads fiercely with their arms.

A few seconds later, there was no movement, and no explosion as expected.

"Nani?"

Captain Guizi, who was not sure about the situation, didn't have time to think too much. He got up again, shouted, and prepared to retreat in the direction where Shimada Masan and his party were.

But before he took a few steps, he suddenly felt dizzy in his eyes, and it was even difficult to breathe. He grabbed his neck with both hands, which was extremely painful.

He staggered a few more steps, and then fell headlong to the ground.

At the same time as he fell to the ground, there were successive puffs of falling to the ground beside him.

asshole……

Until he became unconscious, he still hadn't figured out what happened.

On the other side, the old devil Shimada lurking in the woods was taken aback. The smoke bomb had almost dissipated, and the incendiary bomb had already been thrown over.

Why have you waited for such a long time, and still haven't seen the first action team evacuate?

The poor little devil probably doesn't know that once ether makes people faint, they need to sleep for hours at least.

How could it be so easy to wake up?

Most of the little devils who guarded the radio station in the cave before were stunned by ether, and most of them still haven't woken up yet!

But the major among them was being interrogated by the soldiers after being woken up by a basin of cold water.

And the little devil threw smoke bombs and incendiary bombs. Ye Min, who was observing secretly, immediately calculated the approximate area where the devil was based on the trajectory of the shells fired by the devil.

He then turned his head and told Erhu the specific coordinates and approximate area.

"Immediately notify the cannon group fortifications, start fire coverage, hurry up! Otherwise, this cunning mouse should run away!"

"Yes!"

boom -

A considerable number of shells pierced the sky from three directions and were projected, but the final landing area was surprisingly consistent, right in the area where Shimada Masan and his party's Japanese paratroopers were hiding.

Of course, the landing point is not so precise, it is just a rough coverage of firepower.

This sudden artillery bombardment startled Shimada Shozo, realizing that the Eighth Route Army seemed to have blocked fire here a long time ago.

He didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and he didn't have time to wait for the first action team that rushed out of the smoke, so he quickly issued an order to evacuate.

Random fire coverage throughout the area quickly resulted in casualties among Shimada's paratroopers.

A few unlucky members were killed on the spot.

His heart was bleeding, but Shimada, who didn't care about his grief, hurriedly led the team and rushed out of the area covered by the enemy's Eighth Route Army's firepower.

In the distance, Ye Min was looking with a telescope, although he couldn't see the specific situation because of the cover of the forest.

Seeing that area was covered by firepower, the scene of the devils fleeing in all directions appeared in his mind:

"Under the cover of firepower, the mice will definitely scatter and flee!"

"Next, you just need to close the net and catch all the mice!"

The devil finally used the plane to parachute the fire-fighting airborne troops, and all the fire-fighting paratroopers were arrested, and the countdown has already entered.

But now, all the commando members had to do was to put on masks, and capture the dozen or so little devils who were stunned by ether in the area at the entrance of the cave first.

Now, we are one step closer to catching the devil alive and the entire paratrooper unit...
