Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Bang, bang, bang... In Hougou Village, Luo Zhaodi's semi-automatic rifle kept shaking, and bullets flew out from the muzzle one after another, flying towards the Japanese soldiers not far away.

At this moment, the Japs' charge gave the comrades a great sense of oppression, but it also gave them the best opportunity to kill the enemy! The Japs put their rifles in the safety position during the board charge, intending to fight with bayonets! Similarly, it meant that the Japs had no ability to attack with bullets!
At this time, you just need to stay calm and use the bullets in the gun to kill these devils!
If they were new soldiers, they might be afraid of such a board charge, but the soldiers of the quick reaction company all had records of killing enemies! Well, in the battle just now, everyone had several more kills. So the soldiers didn't have any of these emotions, such as nervousness, fear, or reluctance!
At this time, the soldiers were like Luo Zhaodi, holding their guns tightly, firing at the nearest enemy, and then selecting the next enemy! At this time, the advantage of semi-automatic guns can be seen, because this kind of gun can continuously pull the trigger to shoot, and there is no need to pull the bolt back to reload the bullet because the enemy is moving and missed.

Of course, compared to semi-automatic, the submachine guns in the team are lighter and more relaxed! In the words of the soldiers, the firepower is fierce and light! Especially when the Japanese charge to less than 100 meters, the soldiers holding submachine guns often select a Japanese, pull the trigger, and fire three or five bullets to kill the Japanese on the opposite side.

As the battle progressed and as the comrades of the first company got closer, the Japs became more anxious, and they charged faster and faster, and the number of deaths increased.

Da da da... swoosh swoosh... At this time, a company of soldiers who were running to the south for a distance, panting heavily, pulled the trigger decisively, giving the devils a not-so-fatal blow from the flank! Although the bullets here basically missed because of breathing, the pressure on the devils increased exponentially.

"Wow..." The Japs screamed and charged forward while constantly changing their positions to avoid the bullets.

However, all this was in vain in the face of fierce firepower! From the time the Japanese launched the board charge, the number of them went from a hundred at the beginning to a dozen later, and then they were all wiped out. It only took 3 minutes. 3 minutes, at most the time to smoke a cigarette, but the entire battle in Hougou was completely stopped.

The battle stopped, but it didn't mean it was over, because the battle was still going on in the north! However, Hu Yanbao and his men blocked the retreat of the Japanese. If the Japanese in the north wanted to survive, they had no choice but to surrender unless they fled eastward! However, these Japanese in the north did not choose to surrender or break through, but chose to continue fighting in the complex terrain west of the river.

The battle in the north was still going on, so Hu Yanbao was not idle either. After making sure that all the Japanese soldiers in Hougou were eliminated, he led a company to attack from the south, attacking the Japanese from both sides.

Seeing that the soldiers of the first company were heading north again, Luo Zhaodi and his team also came out of the village and quickly cleaned up the battlefield with the militia. At the same time, the medical staff left by Hu Yanbao, under the guidance of Luo Zhaodi and his team, entered the village to treat the wounded after avoiding several untriggered minefields.

"Bear with it, I'll stop your bleeding first!" Amid the screams of the wounded, the medical staff stopped the bleeding of the wounded one by one in an extremely rough manner, and then proceeded to the next step.

Listening to the screams of the wounded, Luo Zhaodi and other soldiers all felt that it would be better to die directly than to be injured on the battlefield...

"It seems that the Japanese want to hold out until dark, and then make plans! Tell the comrades, hit hard, use grenade launchers, blow up any suspicious targets, don't be stingy with the shells!" On the northern hill, Hu Lanzhou issued an order to spare no expense. In his opinion, it was not a big deal if the ammunition was consumed, but if the battle was not going well and the Japanese escaped, that would be a big problem!

As his orders were passed on to all places, each squad involved in the battle increased the intensity of their firepower. Well, actually, up to now, there were only about 200 Japanese soldiers who could still fight in the north, scattered in an area spanning 500 meters from east to west and 400 meters from north to south. Looking at the strength of the Eighth Route Army, the quick reaction company plus the first company, the number of soldiers on the scene was not much more than that of the Japanese soldiers.

But at this moment, the devils felt that they were surrounded, and at least a regiment of the Eighth Route Army surrounded them! Well, all this was because the firepower of the Eighth Route Army was too strong.

Da da da... swoosh swoosh... bullets were flying everywhere, and the sky was getting darker. However, at this time, Zheng Changfeng led the main force of the main group to rush over from the north.

"Commander, the situation is like this..." Xiao Liang did not command the battle, so he quickly reported the situation to Zheng Changfeng, because this would not affect Hu Lanzhou's command.

"In that case, let the devils enjoy themselves!" After listening to the report, Zheng Changfeng climbed up the ridge and looked at the twinkling gun flames in the dark. He said calmly: "Isn't our artillery company already in place? 18 heavy mortars, enough to overturn this area, right?"

"Yes, Captain!" After understanding what Zheng Changfeng meant, Shi Peican and the others who followed him immediately began to observe the terrain and calculate the distance...

Five minutes later, Shi Peican reported the data to his own artillery position via the radio. Not long after, a shell flew over from the northwest, landed not far after crossing the hilltop, and then exploded into a cloud of white dust. That's right, because there was no advance mapping data, using training shells for test firing was the best choice at this time.

Looking at the large patches of white lime dust exploding on the southern hillside in the increasingly dim light, and the Japanese soldiers who were choked by the dust and had to reveal their bodies from behind their cover, Shi Peican smiled with relief, took the radio microphone and said, "Okay, the landing point is determined. Based on your gun position, the coordinates are adjusted to... Each gun, first fire three grenades, then a pepper shell. After three minutes, your gun position will fire a flare at this point."

"Captain, what you mean is that each of the 18 guns will fire three grenades for bombing, and then each will fire a pepper bomb. Three minutes after the pepper bombs are fired, my gun position will fire a flare?"

"That's right! What else do you want? Just fire a flare at once. That thing is too precious and it's not easy to get the materials!" said Shi Peican.

When the bombing was decided, the shooting on the battlefield had stopped, and no one wanted to waste bullets. After the artillery had finished their instructions, everyone looked up at the sky, intentionally or unintentionally. (End of this chapter)
