Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 928 The Eighth Route Army Has Been Fooled! (First update!)

"Bang bang bang... bang bang..."

Not long after, there were sporadic gunshots around the devil's garrison.

Xiong Changhe knew that it was the security company and the reconnaissance platoon directly under the battalion headquarters in action.

Lieutenant General Ito, the head of the devil division in the garrison, did not look so pretty.

It is indeed a devil's conspiracy to arrange only more than 200 troops to escort the supply troops to carry water, and it is a conspiracy that Lieutenant General Ito came up with on the spur of the moment.

However, the troops had transported drinking water back and forth twice, and the Eighth Route Army was still not fooled.

Not only that, gunshots sounded from other directions of the garrison, and one could tell that the Eighth Route Army must have started to attack the imperial army garrison again with their best guerrilla warfare and night raids.

"Division commander, the troops have been out transporting water for almost two hours, and the Eighth Route Army couldn't have found out. They left our water transporting troops on the ground and continued to attack our camp. They must have discovered our conspiracy!" The chief of staff of the division wrinkled He analyzed with a frown.

"Compared with our heavily guarded garrison, the transport troops with only more than 200 people are obviously easy to fight, and they are still outside the barracks. Even if it is a surprise attack, the Eighth Route Army should attack them. Moreover, the new regiment has strong combat effectiveness and powerful firepower. It's no problem to take off our water transport troops!"

"However, the surrounding Eighth Route Army did not attack our guerrillas...there is only one possibility. They have already seen that the water transport troops we sent out are a bait, and they will be fooled, and then eat their bait!"

"It's possible~" Lieutenant General Ito replied calmly.

"However, it can't be ruled out that the Eighth Route Army is confusing us... After we turn our attention to these sneak attack troops, they will attack the bait we released and catch us by surprise!"

"Therefore, the net collection troops we have arranged cannot be relaxed, and we must continue to be on guard... If it is not possible, we must ensure that half of the troops are on alert and reinforce our water transport troops at any time!"

"Hi!"

Time passed quickly, and at ten past nine o'clock in the evening, more than 200 devils escorted ten vehicles back to the water collection point by the river.

As before, the infantry quickly deployed and surrounded the river bank nearly 200 meters around the water intake point.

The night and the sound of running water provided the best cover for the main force of the first battalion to approach the devils.

It wasn't until the troops touched the position 50 meters away from the devil's warning post that a devil's warning post realized the danger.

"Baga...there is someone...pa..."

The devil's guard post subconsciously fired a shot at the suspicious target he saw.

The crisp shot was like detonating a gunpowder barrel. The riverside, which was so quiet just now that the sound of running water could be heard, suddenly heard very dense gunshots.

The surroundings were pitch black, and at least twenty tongues of flame burst out from the wilderness that could not be seen.

Bullets intertwined like a meteor shower, flying towards the little devil guarding the river.

"Baga...it's an enemy attack... Hurry up and counterattack in concealment, stand by and wait for help~ At most 8 minutes, our reinforcements will come over and surround the Eighth Route Army who attacked us!" The leader of the devil squadron subconsciously threw himself on the ground , and then ordered.

The response speed of the three main companies in the first battalion was faster.

Battalion Commander Xiong Changhe gave them the task of killing half of the devils directly by taking advantage of the devils' surprise in the first round of firepower strikes.

Therefore, light machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, pistols... all kinds of weapons, as long as the effective range exceeds 50 meters, all fire bullets at the devil at the fastest rate of fire at this moment.

In less than five seconds, there was no devil standing by the river.

Nearly 300 people were either sieved by bullets, or lying on the ground, hiding behind the car.

"Papa papa... da da da..."

More and more devils began to fight back, but their strength and firepower were far inferior to the Eighth Route Army that had surrounded them.

As soon as I fired a bullet, the opponent immediately fired back several, or even a dozen bullets to counterattack.

As for the machine guns, as soon as the shots were fired, the Eighth Route Army who attacked them mobilized several light machine guns to stare at them.

As the battle continued, more and more devils were killed in the encirclement, and the Eighth Route Army who attacked them also kept approaching them, shortening the assault distance...

In the temporary camp of the devils, Lieutenant General Ito, the division head who was just about to rest, was awakened suddenly.

After a while, he got up from his seat, and then shouted an order: "Chief of Staff, order the reinforcements to set off immediately, and reinforce the water transport troops!"

"Judging from the firepower, at least one battalion of the Eighth Route Army attacking our water tanker rushed over, surrounded them, and then killed them both inside and out!"

"The Eighth Route Army attacked us all day during the day, causing us to lose so many soldiers of the imperial army. Now that we have finally caught them, we must not let them slip away again~ Kill them and avenge the imperial army who died during the day!"

As soon as the chief of staff rushed to the door of Lieutenant General Ito's tent, he heard the order.Then he didn't go in anymore, and rushed to the war room to give orders after saying yes to the tent.

"Rumble..."

Amidst the roar of huge engines, three tanks and six armored vehicles cooperated with each other and rushed out of the station with black smoke.

More than 500 devil cavalry and more than 1000 devil infantry rushed out of the barracks.

All the devils have only one idea at this moment, to rush to the river in the shortest possible time and kill the Eighth Route Army who dared to attack them.

"All the chariots should keep in formation...Since the Tuba Road has the guts to attack our water transport troops, they must have sent troops to stop us. It is not ruled out that they have placed electric mines on the road..." A major squadron leader of the chariot brigade He was in charge of commanding the nine chariots, and shouted to the communication equipment as soon as he rushed out of the station.

Then he ordered cautiously: "All tanks keep in formation... a tank and two armored vehicles form a commando formation, leave the road immediately, we will go to the wasteland next to the road, and quickly reinforce the water transport troops by the river..."

After rushing out of the temporary camp, it took less than 5 minutes for the engineer platoon to appear in front of the devil's chariot at a minefield two kilometers away from the devil's camp.

The confident devils didn't know all this, and continued to rush forward in tanks and armored vehicles.

As long as there is no such powerful electric detonated landmine on the road, the tanks and armored vehicles with very strong protection and assault capabilities will kill the Eighth Route Army who is attacking the water transport troops by the river...

"boom……"

The sound of a violent explosion suddenly reached the squadron leader's ears, and the driver of the chariot next to him subconsciously stepped on the brakes to stop the chariot.

Under the action of huge inertia, the major squadron leader bumped into the armor of the tank.

"Sir, the No. [-] armored vehicle was hit by a landmine, which seemed to be an ordinary mine, but the wheel of the armored vehicle was blown up, and there is no way to move forward!"

"It can't be an ordinary landmine!" The squadron leader frowned and denied.

"Ordinary landmines are not so powerful. The cunning Tubalu must have added explosives or shells to the mines, otherwise the power of the mines would not be so great!"

Then he ordered: "The No. 30 tank will be left for repairs, and the other tanks will continue to move forward. All the tanks will move [-] meters to the left and then move forward to make a surprise move towards the river. It is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to bury the entire wasteland with landmines..."
