Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 495 Chapter 494, Under my nose, you are making a detour? A sneak attack?

"The Japs have become smarter!" Qian Dasheng, the platoon leader of the 2st platoon of the 1nd company in the bunker, said in a joking voice while looking at the position of the Japs through the observation hole.

"Platoon leader, how should we deal with this? The company commander said he will not give us grenade support and let us fight off the Japanese on our own!" asked Le Ming, the squad leader of the 5th squad.

"How should we deal with it? Go and notify everyone to replace the light and heavy machine gunners with new recruits and give them the opportunity for actual combat training! Tell the precision shooters to call out their names one by one from the front to the back!" Qian Dasheng said.

"Yes, platoon leader!" Le Ming agreed. He first replaced the heavy machine gunner in the bunker where he was, then he crawled through the narrow passage and came to the bunker next door to convey the new order.

When there are too many Japanese, the veterans can take over and withstand the pressure and kill a large number of Japanese. When there are fewer Japanese, the veterans take a break and let the new recruits take over. The purpose is to train soldiers in actual combat! The safety factor of the machine gunner is greatly increased by the bulletproof shield. Even if the new recruits go up, there will probably be no casualties.

In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that at a distance of more than 300 meters, the Japanese need to shoot despite the bullets whizzing by them. They need to shoot the bullet into the shooting hole, and then through the shooting hole in the middle of the bulletproof shield that is only a few centimeters wide, in order to hit the machine gunner. The key is that when the heavy machine gun is shooting, it is not fixed, but it is sweeping back and forth, and the observation hole also moves back and forth...

Let's put it this way, looking at the entire Eighth Route Army, except for Li Yuexuan who can guarantee that within two shots at a distance of 300 meters, the bullets will pass through this shooting hole and kill the target behind. Li Yuexuan is still like this, let alone the Japanese.

As for the Qi Lali light machine gun? As long as the machine gunner doesn't foolishly come to the front of the bunker's firing hole, it will be difficult for the Japanese to hit it.

Therefore, after just half a minute of exchange of fire, the Japanese attack remained at the 300-meter line of fire, and the Eighth Route Army also replaced the light and heavy machine gunners and completed the training exchange.

The number of Japanese soldiers at this time had not decreased much, and they had no intention of moving forward except for simple left and right movements. The newly replaced light and heavy machine gunners did not have the flexibility and shooting skills of the veterans at all. They held the handles of the light and heavy machine guns tightly, aimed at one or two Japanese soldiers, and kept firing, without knowing how to change positions to suppress them.

"A bunch of losers fighting each other?" In the back, Li Yuexuan looked at the red and green dots flashing on the small map, but the red dots did not decrease quickly. The phrase suddenly appeared in his mind.

Of course, this word only flashed through his mind for a moment before he put it behind his mind, because soon, the Japanese soldiers kept disappearing.

In front, in the bunker, the snipers were holding semi-automatic rifles and sniper rifles, with the barrel guards placed on the sandbags inside the shooting holes. With the barrels sticking out, they calmly selected the Japanese under the cover of light and heavy machine guns, then aimed and fired.

The precision shooters are good at shooting, and the semi-automatic rifles in their hands are also selected from the same batch of products with good quality and high accuracy. Therefore, there is no need to worry about their own safety. All the precision shooters need to do is to find the target, select the target, and eliminate the target! At this time, the benefits of regular moving target training come into play.

Because it was a harassment attack, the Japanese soldiers did not dare to move too far forward, and they mostly jumped left and right at a distance of 300 meters. The precision shooters who had experience in shooting moving targets would look for the movement patterns of the Japanese soldiers, leave enough lead time to coincide with the flight time of the bullet, and shoot several times in a row to ensure that there would be no mistakes. Therefore, often after three shots, a Japanese soldier would fall to the ground. As more and more Japanese soldiers were eliminated, the precision shooters' marksmanship and experience points also became higher and higher, and the casualties of the Japanese soldiers also increased...

"Baga... turn back, turn back..." The team leader in charge of commanding the battle at the end of the Japanese team saw that half of his team had already been killed, so he quickly shouted for everyone to turn back and run. He was worried that if he didn't evacuate quickly, his team would probably be like his comrades who died here and couldn't go back.

Captain Hata on the mountain ridge behind the Japanese retreated, but he was not angry, because he didn't want to suffer too much loss! However, the first attacking team retreated, and he had to send out the second team, the third team, the fourth team... In short, as long as the commander did not issue a new order, his team had to go.

"You don't need to get too close to the Eighth Route Army's bunkers. Stay 400 meters away and fire. Don't move forward easily. That's it!" Captain Hata breathed a sigh of relief after giving the new squad an order. If the distance is set at 400 meters, the casualties will be much smaller, right? Well, it's just a harassment, and we can't let too many people die...

The Japanese attacked again, but they stopped at a distance of 400 meters and fired, which annoyed the soldiers in the bunker. Damn, isn't this a common tactic we use? Did the Japanese learn it too?

At this time, Tian E and Hu Yanbao gave orders to the soldiers who had just participated in the sharpshooter training: "Don't hold back, use your guns to destroy the enemy as much as possible!"

As soon as the order was given, the soldiers scattered in the bunkers immediately used their best skills to kill more than half of the Japanese soldiers within a distance of 400 meters, scaring the Japanese soldiers into retreating again...

In the previous battles, from the fierce exchange of fire at the beginning to the sporadic shooting from a distance later, the intensity of the Japs' attacks became lower and lower.

Therefore, Li Yuexuan shifted his attention from the south of the thin sky to the two nearby defense circles. After this period of delay, the Japanese soldiers who were originally sent out had entered the two defense zones on both sides of the thin sky, and also found a path through the cliffs and steep slopes, and were now quietly crawling up the mountain.

Looking at the slowly moving red dots, Li Yuexuan smiled, because the location of these devils was exactly the mountain path that the special operations team had marked for the chief of staff to explore. Since the special operations team had marked it, there would be no loopholes on the chief of staff's side, so Li Yuexuan just had to wait and see. Although he could only see the red and green dots, he could still judge the battle situation.

To the west of the thin sky, at a steep slope 1800 meters away, a squadron of Japanese soldiers were climbing along a narrow path covered with small shrubs such as vitex and jujube roots. Compared with the nearly 90-degree cliffs around, the slope here is about 70 degrees. With the help of these shrubs, the Japanese soldiers were still able to climb up.

However, what the devils could not see was that on the gentle slope of the flat top of the mountain, a company of soldiers were quietly rushing over...
