Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 166 Chapter 165, Sacrifice
In the village, Captain Buchuan received bad news. A squadron he sent out for a surprise attack was caught off guard by the Eighth Route Army, so he gave up the confrontation.

"Tomorrow, we will set out before dawn and return to the base. Everyone, get ready!" Buchuan finally couldn't bear it anymore. He didn't want to wait here any longer! He didn't want to consider any punishment or penalties! If he stayed any longer, his team would be wiped out. It was useless to think too much!

Therefore, the Japanese soldiers who received the latest order packed their bags and planned to return to the base early the next morning. This raid was really a nightmare for them.

The Japanese soldiers were all on the move, trying to retrieve as many bodies as possible, and then carrying them on stretchers to take away. With work to do, the nights were no longer unbearable, and they just hoped that the Eighth Route Army would stop harassing them.

Xing Weiguo did not continue to harass the Japanese, nor did he try to investigate the situation, and he did not even think about bringing the Jigongling team over. In his opinion, the team he led was elite enough to fight the Japanese. With Peregrine Falcon, two main infantry squads, a few selected veterans, and three grenade launchers, what else was there to worry about?

So, the guerrillas moved to another place and waited quietly for several hours, and finally waited until dawn.

When daybreak came, there was no sign of life in Weijia Village. The Japanese soldiers quietly left the village before dawn and set out on the mountain road back to their stronghold in Zhoujia Village.

The guerrillas didn't know all this. After they could see the birds chirping in Weijia Village, they felt something was wrong. The birds chirping in the village meant that the villagers had not gotten up yet, or that there was no one in the village. Which situation was it now?
Li Yuexuan knew the situation best, but could he tell it? Could he tell the captain that I could see a small map in front of me, and the little red dot representing the devils had left half an hour ago?

This is definitely not possible! So, he just pretended to be fine! Anyway, Captain Guo has been waiting all night, right? As long as Captain Guo doesn't let them down, none of these devils can escape! So, he was not in a hurry, just watched the captain's reaction, and then waited for the news that the devils were ambushed.

"Comrade Youshun, fire two grenades into the village and see!" Xing Weiguo didn't know whether the Japanese were in the village, so he couldn't go down the mountain immediately. He put his hope on Li Yuexuan, wanting to make a show of force.

"Okay, Captain!" Li Yuexuan didn't waste any time and fired two grenades at the open space in the village.

And then? Of course nothing happened! The devils were not in the village, and it did nothing except scare the birds away.

Of course, it was not that there was no gain. At least Xing Weiguo made a judgment and asked the vanguard squad to go down the mountain carefully and asked the people on the top of the mountain to stay alert, as he planned to go deeper.

Hu Lanzhou led the team personally. The nine soldiers were not afraid of landmines. They each held their guns and went down the mountain to approach the village. When they reached the mountain road, three people were assigned to guard the west, and the remaining six continued to approach the village. At this time, they not only had to look at the village in front, but also pay attention to the ground they stepped on to see if there were any signs of disturbance, because there might be landmines.

It turned out that the Japanese were afraid that the mines they planted would blow up their own people, so they left without laying mines. In order to leave secretly, they even did not burn down the houses in the village.

When the vanguard squad concluded that there was no one in the village, Xing Weiguo felt a little annoyed, but also excited.

"Squad leader, take your squad and dig out all the landmines and bullet mines from here to Jigongling, and then bring all the comrades left behind at Jigongling over here! Peregrine, take your heavy firepower squad and continue to guard the southern hilltop to occupy a commanding height for us! Hu Lanzhou, move the enemy's fortifications to face west! The rest of you, clean up the battlefield!"

That's right, after confirming that it was safe, Xing Weiguo did three things: defense, mobilization, and cleaning the battlefield. Cleaning the battlefield, of course, means cleaning up the Japanese soldiers that were annihilated last night! The Japanese on the southern hilltop had been cleaned up last night, but it was dark and we couldn't find them clearly, so we needed to find them again. And the Japanese who attacked last night actually killed as many as 24 of them, so these Japanese also needed to be cleaned up.

There were also bombs on the north hill. Although the Japanese had cleaned up the place, what if there were any spoils? We had to go take a look.

It had been freezing cold for a few hours, and the Japanese were already stiff, making it difficult to attack them.

The guerrillas were busy and intense. About an hour later, the mine clearance work at Jigongling in the east was completed. The main forces of the two platoons all came over, and Xu Hongying also rejoined the team.

Just at this moment, bursts of gunfire and grenade explosions were heard from the direction of Yin Jiulang Village in the west, which made everyone feel itchy and wanted to help.

To the west, in Yinjiulang Village, on the ridge of Mianyang Mountain, Captain Guo was holding a Czech-style rifle and firing short bursts at the Japanese soldiers below the mountain. His messenger, Xiaoniu, followed his captain, holding two full magazines in his hands, ready to respond at any time.

"Magazine..." After Captain Guo had fired 20 rounds of bullets, he moved more than 10 meters to the east while holding the Czech rifle, removed the magazine and shouted loudly.

"Captain, here!" Comrade Xiao Niu took the empty magazine and handed over the full one. Then, when Captain Guo was acting as a machine gunner again, he asked two comrades beside him to help load the bullets.

At this time, down the mountain, the Japanese soldiers who had set out before daybreak were stunned by the sudden attack and forgot to fight back. When a Japanese officer finally shouted to fight back, he found that of the 106 Japanese soldiers who left the village, only 30 or so were left who could shoot.

There was no other way. Captain Guo and his men set up a land mine in the dark, which immediately cleared out a dozen Japanese soldiers around. Then, more than 100 grenades were thrown down, and dozens of Japanese soldiers were blown up. Then, the Min-1 rifles fired loudly, and the soldiers of the st Company fired from a height of dozens of meters away...

Less than a minute into the fight, Captain Guo gave up shooting, picked up his machete, and raised it high: "Comrades, follow me and kill these bastards!"

The red cloth on the ring of Captain Guo's machete made it look particularly bright in the eyes of his comrades. After shouting, he led the charge down the mountain. Of course, he held a machete in his right hand and a box gun in his left.

"Kill..." More than a hundred soldiers rushed down the hillside under the cover of machine guns and killed the remaining Japanese soldiers.

Well, it didn’t take long before the remaining Japanese soldiers became corpses lying on the ground.
