Chapter 715 The Decisive Battle

On the wide dirt road, a long convoy moved slowly forward.

The dirt road was full of potholes, so you can imagine how fast the car was moving.

But after all, mechanized transportation still has great advantages compared to walking.

In the evening, the convoy stopped by the roadside for repairs.

"Major!"

"How far is it to Heshun?"

A Japanese major holding a command knife asked in a deep voice while eating. His face was serious and intimidating.

The lieutenant next to him immediately took out a map, spread it in front of the Japanese major, and said respectfully: "According to our speed, we should be here now. We are still 20 kilometers away from Heshun. We should be able to reach Heshun within an hour."

The Japanese major raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and said, "It is now 5:20. Tell them to take a 20-minute break and get to Heshun before 6:30."

"Yes, Major!"

"Major, here's the latest telegram." Another lieutenant hurried over with a telegram.

"What telegram?"

"It's General Takeuchi of Nantianmen!"

This Japanese major was none other than Yamamoto Benjiro, the captain of the Yamamoto Battalion, which was responsible for encircling and suppressing the guerrillas.

Although Yamamoto Jiro's military rank was only major, the Yamamoto family he belonged to was also a first-class family with great influence in the Japanese military.

"Within three days, you have captured five of our strongholds and annihilated five of our squads..."

"Humph!"

"waste!"

"They are all a bunch of trash!"

"They were beaten like this by a small guerrilla group. They are just as useless as that Sakata guy."

The Sakata that Yamamoto Benjiro mentioned was the one who was ambushed by Wang Zhong at the ancient road entrance last time and was dragged away by Wang Zhong using guerrilla tactics. A battalion chased out the line of a regiment and even abandoned their heavy weapons and the advantage of mechanized troops, which gave the guerrillas led by Wang Zhong an opportunity to take advantage of. They used flexible tactics and methods to completely defeat the entire Sakata battalion.

They truly achieved victory with a smaller force and brought the essence of guerrilla warfare to its extreme.

……

On the other side, in the mountains ten miles away from Heshun, Wang Zhong led the guerrilla fighters to crawl on both sides of the mountain road.

"Captain, how do you know that the Japanese will definitely pass through here?" Li Hu, who was lying next to Wang Zhong, asked curiously.

"You are such a jerk, why are you asking all these stupid questions? There is only one road leading to Heshun, and the Japs are a mechanized unit. If they don't go through here, where else can they go?"

Yao Ma next to him said unhappily.

Li Hu rubbed his head and smiled innocently: "Yes, why didn't I think of it."

Wang Zhong's face was very serious, with a gleam in his eyes. He did not stop the others from playing and joking, because he knew in his heart that the upcoming battle would definitely be the most difficult battle they had faced since their first battle in Burma.

They were facing a modernized, reorganized mechanized Japanese army battalion.

"Not spicy, what's the situation in Heshun?" Wang Zhong asked again.

Bu La said: "We started evacuating this morning, and now almost everyone who should leave has left."

Wang nodded and said, "Tell the brothers to follow the plan, don't fight too long, and leave after the battle is over."

"Don't worry, everything has been explained clearly!" Bu La nodded in response.

Wang Zhong didn't say anything else, just looked at the winding road that looked like a snake's path.

Half an hour later, the sound of a car roared into Wang Zhong's ears.

"coming!"

Wang Zhong immediately came back to his senses from his meditation.

"Notify everyone, put the entire army on alert."

Wang Zhong's spirit also became tense.

After several days of fighting, although the guerrillas suffered significant casualties, their number did not decrease but increased to more than 200 people.

Five Japanese strongholds were eliminated in succession over the next few days, but Wang Zhong was not idle. He recruited those passionate young people who were determined to fight against the Japanese into the team. In just a few days, he doubled the number of troops.

However, such a large-scale recruitment has led to a rapid decline in the quality of the troops.

Fortunately, after several days of fighting, the original recruits have already shown some potential as veterans. In addition, with the original members of the commando team serving as squad leaders, they can barely perform well.

As for weapons.

Wang Zhong had previously led the guerrillas to attack cities and strongholds and destroy the Japanese strongholds in order to obtain the Japanese heavy weapons in the strongholds.

Four Pheasant Necks, which were Japanese heavy machine guns, six light machine guns, and five mortars previously captured at Gudaokou, three of which were transferred over by Wang Zhong.

Although it was a team of only 200 people, except for the vehicles, its weapons and equipment were comparable to that of a Japanese battalion.

But once this ambush started, it meant that the guerrillas gave up their most advantageous mobility and chose to confront the Japanese head-on. This choice was not the best one for the guerrillas at that time.

But for the entire future war situation on the west coast, as long as this battle can be won, it means that the guerrillas have completely established a foothold in the enemy areas behind the Japanese army on the west coast.

Pulling the bolt and carefully checking the bullets in the gun, Wang Zhong glanced towards the other end of the road subconsciously.

Bula and Yaoma immediately went down to convey Wang Zhong's order, and Doubing signaled Cui Yong and others on the opposite side.

Five minutes later, the roar of a car reached everyone's ears.

A military green truck with Japanese army flags stuck on both sides of the front of the car swayed over the uneven road surface and slowly drove along the bumpy dirt road towards Heshun.

"No!" Before Wang Zhong could speak, Bu La next to him said, "Why are there only four cars?"

"Didn't they say there were at least a thousand people, a whole brigade of devils?"

Yao Ma next to him also chimed in: "This is at most a squadron of Japanese soldiers."

Wang Zhong's eyes flickered as he looked at the four trucks below and said in a deep voice, "We are on the verge of an attack now. No matter what, we have no choice but to fight hard."

Wang Zhong used a telescope to quickly scan the driver's cabs and co-pilot seats of the four vehicles, but did not see any high-ranking Japanese generals. However, as Wang Zhong said, they were now on the verge of firing.

As he spoke, Cao Lin had already pulled the bolt, loaded the bullet into the chamber, and aimed the gun at the driver of the first car.

"Notice everyone, no heavy machine guns are allowed to be used, light machine guns and rifles are ready."

"No, you take a platoon of people with you, go around the mountain behind, and go to the next hill..."

"Yes!"

Bula immediately picked up his gun and left the fortification, leading a group of people quickly towards the rear car.

Less than two minutes after Bu La left, gunshots were heard and the driver of the first car fell down.

The logs will roll down from both sides, completely blocking the road in the middle in an instant.

In an instant, gunshots rang out on both sides of the road.

Six light machine guns fired at the same time, and more than a hundred rifles fired at the same time. In a moment, the drivers and the people in the passenger seats of the four vehicles were shot to pieces.

But no one on the truck jumped down to fight back.

At this moment, a whistling sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded.

"It's the enemy's grenade launcher!" "Get down quickly."

Wang Zhong shouted loudly and fell to the ground immediately.

'Boom boom boom boom!'

The roars came one after another, and the earth slopes on both sides of the road were instantly hit by the Japanese mortars.

Some unlucky soldiers were directly hit by the shells and were blown away on the spot, with their hands and feet blown off.

Fortunately, the veterans played an important role that cannot be ignored. They immediately commanded the recruits beside them to occupy the shelters and lie down in order to reduce the impact damage caused by the explosion.

But there were still many unlucky guys who were directly hit by the shells.

However, in just a few minutes, the ambush positions on both sides were completely disrupted.

"Damn it!"

Milong pulled his head out of the soil, cursing, "This devil is too sinister."

Next to him was Yao Ma, who was in a miserable state. Yao Ma's luck was not very good. A shell exploded right next to him, cutting off one of his hands. Half of his face was also in a mess and he had fainted.

"Sichuan guy!"

"Are you okay?"

"You son of a bitch, wake up!"

Looking at Yaoma's miserable condition, Milong was grief-stricken, but more angry.

"You damned little Japs! I'm going to fight you to the death."

"cake!"

"clip!"

Doubing, who was also curled up on the ground, stood up with a confused look on his face. After looking around for a while, he saw the unconscious waist in front of Milong, and the empty arm without even a sleeve left.

"I want Ma Ge!"

Doubing pounced over immediately.

"I want Ma Ge!"

"What's wrong with you?"

"Don't scare me!"

"I want Ma Ge!"

Doubing cried with tears and snot. If you were to ask who Doubing had the best relationship with in the entire shelter, there would be no other choice except Yaoma.

Even Milong, the machine gunner, is inferior to Yaoma in Doubing's heart.

Yao Ma has been protecting Doubing, who looks like a child, since they arrived at the shelter, and the relationship between the two is very deep.

Seeing him like this, Milong didn't bother to say anything and rushed forward, took out the magazine from the backpack behind Doubing and replaced it, then immediately set up the machine gun and started firing at the Japanese infantry who were searching along the slope in front of him.

"kill!"

Milong let out a deafening roar, and the muzzle of the machine gun in his hand kept emitting flames. Countless bullets poured towards the Japanese army like a tide, venting the infinite anger in Milong's heart.

Not far away, Wang Zhong, Dong Dao, Shebutt and a few others had already reached the commanding heights of the mountain top when the Japanese army was bombing the mountainside with grenade launchers.

"The damn Japs were well prepared. How did they know we would ambush here?" Snake Butt cursed in a very authentic Cantonese accent.

"Within a radius of dozens of miles, there are not many places suitable for ambushes, especially those next to the road. If the Japanese commander has a little military knowledge, he will definitely guess that there must be an ambush nearby."

Wang Zhong spoke in a leisurely tone, as if he had anticipated the current situation.

As he spoke, Wang Zhong also adjusted the positions and angles of the three grenade launchers.

"Prepare!"

Shepizi and Dongdao immediately picked up the shells and placed them at the muzzle of the grenade launcher.

"One round loaded, fire!"

As soon as the words fell, the shells in the hands of the two men immediately rolled into the gun barrel. As the grenade launcher was fired, the shells immediately drew a very beautiful arc in the air and fell towards the Japanese grenade launcher position not far below the mountain.

"Boom boom boom!"

The three shells hit the Japanese grenade launcher ammunition group, immediately causing a chain reaction.

"Reload the second round!"

Wang Zhong didn't think twice and gave the order again. Several people immediately picked up the shells again. Following Wang Zhong's order, the grenade launcher shells flew towards the Japanese grenade launcher position again.

"Three rounds to reload!"

"..."

Three grenade launchers fired more than ten shells in succession before they stopped.

Unfortunately, the grenade launcher had a limited range and could not reach the Japanese commander.

The Japanese army's grenade launcher positions were destroyed and countless artillery shells were blown up.

The Japanese commander, Yamamoto Benjiro, was furious: "Baka, a mere guerrilla force, what grenade launchers did you bring?"

"Major, Major Sakata was defeated at Gudaokou before, and most of the weapons and equipment he brought were seized. Could it be that the guerrillas got the grenade launcher at that time?"

The staff officer next to him immediately analyzed calmly.

"Bakayaro, you useless Sakata, you are useless and only help the enemy."

Because the purpose was to hunt down Wang Zhong and other guerrillas who were fleeing in the mountains and forests and had no fixed location, the only thing that could be called an artillery shell that Yamamoto's battalion brought with them when they set out was this batch of grenade launchers.

But now all the ammunition has been blown up by the guerrillas, leaving only a pile of empty shells. Without the deterrence of the grenade launchers, the Japanese troops on the front battlefield will face greater pressure.

"Notify Cui Yong and the others to be ready. When the Japanese get within 30 meters, then give them a good beating."

Wang Zhong quickly adjusted the angle of the grenade launcher while calmly giving orders.

"Yes."

Dong Dao immediately went down to convey Wang Zhong's order.

"Quick! Reload!"

As soon as he adjusted the position and angle, Wang Zhong couldn't wait to fire again.

The two shells fell directly into the middle of the attacking Japanese troops. The violent explosion and shock wave instantly swept away a dozen or even dozens of people within the blast range.

But compared with the Japanese army which had a full battalion of troops, these casualties were nothing but a tickle.

Large numbers of Japanese infantry continued to attack.

The Japanese army's precise marksmanship, coupled with the coordinated firepower of light and heavy machine guns, even without the assistance of grenade launchers, with their absolute advantage in numbers and sufficient firepower, temporarily suppressed the guerrillas.

As the Japanese infantry continued to advance forward, the distance between the two sides continued to narrow, and bullets flew back and forth like raindrops. The unlucky ones were hit directly by stray bullets, while those who were lucky could still save one or two lives. The unlucky ones were hit in the vitals by stray bullets and died directly.

Fifty meters!
Forty meters!
Thirty meters!
Just after the Japanese troops entered the range of about thirty meters.

"beat!"

At the command, the four heavy machine guns that had been silent until now began firing almost at the same time.
