The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2269: The Combat-Savvy Company Commander

Gunshots were heard everywhere in the area, which was no more than one kilometer in radius.

As far as Shang Zhen's company was concerned, they first thought that they were caught up by the Japanese army, so they began to occupy advantageous terrain. However, the entire Kuomintang company laughed, which made Shang Zhen realize that there was actually a third-party armed force here.

As for the Japanese army, they originally came to hunt down Shang Zhenlian, but with the sound of gunfire and the appearance of another National Army, they felt that they had fallen into a trap set by the Chinese army, and they began to break out.

As for the young company commander, the low quality of his soldiers accidentally exposed their existence. He could no longer sit on the mountain and watch the fight between two tigers. At least he had to block the Japanese army's plan to break out.

Unfortunately, the best option for the Japanese army was to break out, so it was their company that first engaged in battle with the Japanese. As for Shang Zhen's company, although Shang Zhen fired the first shot, due to the obstruction of the woods, the Japanese army had not yet thought of the low hill occupied by Shang Zhen's company.

The Japanese army appeared at the edge of the woods, and the sounds of light machine gun fire rang out first.

Although the gunfire was fierce, it was actually blind. The Japanese army only knew that their retreat was blocked. As for where the enemy was hiding, they could suspect it but they could not see it!

The sound of the machine gun was just a cover. Amid the machine gun fire, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers rushed out of the woods with rifles in hand.

"It's all your fault! Whoever dares to shoot first will be killed by me!" The young company commander was already furious. Looking at his expression and actions, if he wasn't wearing a military uniform, it would be hard not to think of a Northeastern mustache.

"Move aside and give me the machine gun!" The young company commander pushed the machine gunner next to him away, then he lay down and wanted to operate the gun himself.

"Aim the remaining machine guns at the Japs at the edge of the woods and suppress their covering fire!

This is a probing attack by the Japanese. We must knock them down, and then they will stop causing trouble for us!" the young company commander shouted.

When he saw that the Japanese army was more than a hundred meters away from them, the young company commander shouted "shoot", and the light machine gun he was pointing at started firing "bang bang bang".

As his gunshot rang out, the soldiers on their side appeared one after another, and all the bullets were fired at the Japanese troops who were covering the attack.

He ordered the other machine guns to provide covering fire for the Japanese army, so the performance of the light machine gun he controlled was very eye-catching.

At least in his first two short shots, two Japanese soldiers were shot and fell to the ground!

This was the first battle that the young company commander led his soldiers to fight. Only then did his soldiers prove that their young company commander was not only good at bragging about fighting the Japanese, but was also a really good shooter!

As other soldiers opened fire, several more Japanese soldiers were shot one after another. In the end, only four Japanese soldiers were left hiding behind a large rock outside the woods.

"it is good!"

"well played!"

The soldiers cheered loudly.

Although only less than ten Japanese soldiers have been killed so far, this has greatly boosted the team's confidence.

"Bang", "Bang", "Bang" the sound of gunfire was chaotic. Who doesn't like to give a drowning dog a beating?

The soldiers poured out all their joy of killing the enemies on the big rock that hid the Japanese troops, so much so that even from their position they could clearly see sparks flying from the rock as they hit it!

"Stop shooting! Stop shooting!" the young company commander yelled again, "Keep hidden, keep an eye on the little Japanese soldiers near the woods, are you guys just hitting a big rock?"

The gunfire stopped, and at this time the young company commander put down the light machine gun he had just used and shrank away: "Learn from this."

He was talking about the original machine gunner. Just as the machine gunner looked at his company commander with great admiration, the young company commander shouted again: "Where is my small cannon? Bring me the explosives!"

The small cannon he referred to was just a name he was used to calling it. In fact, it was a grenade launcher captured from the Japanese army, and the explosives naturally referred to grenades.

"Our company commander also has this skill!" The soldiers looked at their young company commander with higher regard. There was no doubt that he was indeed a veteran!

Then, some soldiers started to exchange a few shots with the Japanese soldiers in the woods using rifles, but their soldiers' shooting skills were obviously not as accurate as those of the Japanese soldiers. One soldier was hit on the head by a bullet flying out of the woods and died.

"Stop fighting and just pull your heads back! You bunch of idiots!" He started cursing again, but this time it was not the young company commander, but Old Gu.

As for the young company commander, he had already changed his position and hid behind a medium-sized rock.

Their blocking position is now on the hillside, where there are rocks, bushes and trees. They already have the advantage of the terrain, and if they hide like this, how can the Japanese find them?

The young company commander had already hidden behind a rock and was gesturing to the Japanese army with his thumb raised.

The soldiers next to him naturally didn't understand what he was doing. After he finished demonstrating, he lifted up the grenade launcher behind the rock, tilted his neck to glance at the position of the big rock where the Japanese soldiers were hiding, and then began to adjust the angle of the grenade launcher.

"This is not easy to fight, you know?" one of his platoon leaders said to the soldier next to him.

The platoon leader is, of course, a veteran. He has never eaten pork but he has seen pigs run.

Although there are scales on the grenade launcher, there is no sight, so where the fired grenade hits depends entirely on the operator's experience.

According to his understanding, the difficulty goes beyond this, because their blocking position is now on the hillside and there is a height difference with the Japanese troops below. Naturally, the angle of attack is different from that on flat ground when hitting a target of the same distance.

If you are not an expert in using grenade launchers, you really can’t do it!

The soldiers next to him didn't know how to operate it and could only watch. After a moment, they heard a "bang" and the grenade flew out.

However, the grenade flew more than 40 meters away, and naturally flew over the big rock, exploding between the woods and the big rock.

"Oh!" The soldier next to him felt so sorry.

The young company commander continued fiddling with the grenade launcher, and only a moment later, the second grenade was fired. This time it hit the target, but there was still about twenty meters to the big rock.

The young company commander's face turned red, but he immediately shouted, "Why are you all looking at me? The Japanese are about to run out!"

In any case, the young company commander had already established prestige among the soldiers. When he shouted like that, the soldiers next to him stopped looking at him and aimed their guns at the big rock.

You know what, as soon as they focused their attention, they saw those Japanese soldiers actually appear from behind the big rock, but they didn't attack, but ran into the woods.

At this moment, gunshots from both sides rang out. There were four Japanese soldiers behind the rock. Three of them were shot and fell to the ground. The last one was also shot when he ran to the edge of the woods, but it seemed that he was shot in the calf. That guy was lucky and jumped twice on one leg and got into the woods.

As for their company, two soldiers were shot by the Japanese soldiers in the woods and their blood was shed on the battlefield!

"The Japs are hiding behind a big rock. Even if I fire my grenade at the rock, I can't hit them. So I can only hit them from behind the rock, right? You are all so stupid!" The young company commander began to train the soldiers again. In fact, he was just trying to justify his own level of grenade firing.
