The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1406: Victory is certain! (First update)

The powerful air wave generated by the explosion instantly overturned the grenade hand, and he fell to the ground unconscious.

Although the remaining little Japs were not blown up, they were so frightened that they stopped firing unconsciously.

However, the Eighth Route Army artillery that attacked them was not affected at all, and instead fought more and more bravely.

"Boom boom boom..."

The second round of artillery shells followed, hitting the Kwantung Army's counterattack troops again.

Not only that, there were four more mortars participating in the artillery counterattack this time.

After a series of explosions, the attacking troops, which had already suffered heavy casualties, became increasingly ineffective.

The mortars and heavy machine guns that were finally brought out of the station were either blown to pieces or overturned.

The squadron leader's face was gloomy and terrifying, and he clenched his fists. If there was an Eighth Route Army soldier standing in front of him now, he would definitely cut him in half with a knife.

But no matter how bad the squadron commander was, he still did not issue an order to withdraw.

The attack continues, and as long as there is a little hope, he will not give up.

Moreover……

In addition to the two trump cards of the mortar and the heavy machine gun, he also has two other trump cards. They play a much greater role in the battle than the heavy machine gun and the mortar.

As long as they outflank them and launch attacks in time, even if the King of Heaven comes, the Eighth Route Army that is blocking them will not be able to escape and will be wiped out by them here.

This trump card is the other two teams that are performing an outflanking mission.

“Dong dong dong… da da da…”

the more you hope, the harder you fall.

When the squadron leader placed all his hopes on outflanking the troops, the right wing of the battlefield was a bush three or four hundred meters away from him. Suddenly there was a burst of gunfire, which was very dense. Judging from the firepower, both sides were equipped with at least six machine guns, including a heavy machine gun.

A small team outflanking from the right flank of the battlefield happened to be in that area.

Moreover, the team participating in the outflank was only equipped with three light machine guns and no heavy machine guns or mortars.

But the sound of heavy machine gun fire came from the battlefield, which meant that the sound of heavy machine gun fire he heard probably came from the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army he was facing was not only a dozen people in front of him, but also the Eighth Route Army existed in other places around him...

Immediately ordered: "Bagh Ya Road...the troops outflanking the right wing of the battlefield are in danger...let them retreat quickly, break away from the battle, and move closer to me. Before you have a clear understanding of the enemy's situation, you must not rush into a head-on confrontation with the Eighth Route Army. Otherwise, everything will be in vain. It’s definitely us who will suffer!”

"Da da da...dong dong dong..."

The sound of firefights coming from the right wing of the battlefield did not end when the squadron commander issued the order to retreat, but intensified.

Faced with this accident, the squadron leader became even more anxious, but he had no choice but to continue fighting: "The left wing outflanking troops should speed up..."

"First attack the dozen Eighth Route Army troops in the front and kill them..."

"In a roundabout way, we will encircle the right wing of the battlefield and wipe out all the Eighth Route Army there."

"Faster!"

When the squadron leader pinned all his hopes on the left wing outflanking force, they seemed to be in trouble.

"Boom boom boom..."

Several continuous explosions suddenly sounded in the middle of the team, and then four machine gun flames appeared in the surrounding bushes, which looked particularly dazzling under the cover of night. The outflanking troops were killed by surprise without any accident, and suffered heavy casualties.

Although the Kwantung Army had an absolute strength advantage in all three battles, the Eighth Route Army relied on the terrain and night cover, as well as the large number of light and heavy machine guns they were equipped with, and their firepower was not much weaker than that of the Japanese.

For a while, neither side could do anything to the other.

But what the Kwantung Army didn't know was that there were several soldiers from the reinforced squad coming towards the battlefield, all wanting to seize this golden opportunity to kill a few more little Japs. Otherwise, waiting for the Kwantung Army's counterattack troops to withdraw to their base, and then trying to kill them would be like going to heaven.

"Boom boom boom..."

The squadron leader of the Kwantung Army widened his eyes and couldn't believe the accidents that kept happening in front of him.

rack your brains to think of ways to break the situation.

He wanted to break through the situation when both outflanking troops were attacked. His mind was in confusion and he had no idea when two close-range explosions suddenly brought him back to reality.

When he turned his head, he saw a ball of fire rising into the sky seven or eight meters away from him. A heartbreaking pain quickly spread from his chest throughout his body. When he lowered his head, he saw a bloody hole drilled out by shell fragments, with blood gushing out like a fountain.

"idiot……"

The squadron leader quickly raised his hand to cover the wound to stop the bleeding and prevent himself from dying of excessive bleeding.

The squadron leader suddenly found that he could not even lift his hands.

It was only then that the squadron leader discovered that two bloody holes had been drilled into his shoulder and thigh respectively by fragments from another shell.

The three wounds kept bleeding out, and no matter how much blood there was on the squadron leader's body, it wouldn't be enough.

In the blink of an eye, he collapsed on the ground due to lack of physical strength. He didn't even have the strength to open his eyes, and slowly lost consciousness.

As soon as the squadron leader died, the three teams scattered on different battlefields immediately lost their command.

Without a retreat order from their superiors, the three team captains thought that the squadron leader had other arrangements, or that there were other troops coming out of the station. Even though they knew that more and more Eighth Route Army troops were gathering around them, and that their defensive pressure was increasing, they still They persisted in fighting and did not dare to issue a retreat order.

"Boom boom boom..."

Under the cover of light and heavy machine guns, several soldiers suddenly approached the Japanese and threw grenades and grenades as if they were free of charge.

The more than twenty remnants of the Kwantung Army who had gathered together were immediately blown over a large area.

Even if he didn't die, he was seriously injured and temporarily lost his combat effectiveness.

Even if there were still people who could fight, there were not many of them left, and they were pressed to the ground by the rain of bullets flying above their heads, without even a chance to raise their heads.

"Comrades... rush..."

A dozen soldiers jumped up from the ground, holding rifles with fixed bayonets and holding box cannons. There were even two soldiers who held Type 96 light machine guns in their arms and used them as submachine guns, roaring in an unstoppable manner. Charge towards the remnants of the Kwantung Army!

…………

Kwantung Army Wing Headquarters.

Colonel Koike sent out counterattack troops and stood guard in the war room as if they were sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.

The four reinforced squadrons totaled more than a thousand people.

The Eighth Route Army troops operating outside the garrison dispersed their activities in reinforced squad units.

Not to mention that when a reinforced squadron counterattacks a reinforced squad of the Eighth Route Army, the odds of winning are on your side.

Even if a colleague from the reinforced squadron fights against three reinforced squadrons of the Eighth Route Army, the odds of winning are still in his own hands.

In this case, Colonel Koike had no reason to worry about the safety of the counterattack troops.

Listening to the messy and intensive exchange of fire around the station, Colonel Koike thought they were counterattack troops destroying the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack troops, without any worry on his face.
