Chapter 1022 The Japs are about to break out
Wang Zhijiang received a call from Yu Zecheng and immediately arranged two platoons of riflemen to launch defense to the east.
There is also light and heavy machine gun defense on the front, making it difficult for the Japanese to pass.
Defending on the west side of the Chang-Zhuzhou Highway was Li Zaitian's special force company. He saw from his telescope that a group of Japanese soldiers were outflanking them, and he immediately arranged for three squads of soldiers to deploy westward.
~
The phone rang. Wang Zhijiang grabbed the phone and asked, "What's the news ahead?"
The sentry at the front reported: "Report to the company commander that about a hundred Japanese soldiers are quietly outflanking us."
Wang Zhijiang suddenly felt tremendous pressure! He only had six squadrons of riflemen on the flank, that is, fifty-four people. But the Japanese came to more than a hundred people.
Although he knew that his fifty-four gunmen were all elite, he also knew that these gunmen were the treasures of Yu Zecheng's heart. He must not make any mistakes.
He said: "Pay attention to concealment; continue to report any situation!"
Wang Zhijiang hung up the phone and came to the wing. He looked to the south. Sure enough, there was a Japanese soldier popping up five hundred meters away.
He asked: "The first platoon leader, the second platoon leader, maybe they can withstand it?"
The platoon leader laughed loudly and said: "Company commander, I saw these Japs, and many of them are wounded. There are only about a hundred or ten, which is not enough for two of our platoons! One soldier can't even pay for it."
The heads of two or three Japanese."
Seeing that the two platoon leaders were so optimistic, Wang Zhijiang felt a little calmer. He said: "We must not let the Japanese break through!"
The second platoon leader smiled and said: "Company commander, don't worry! None of these Japanese will be able to cross the 100-meter line in front. Unless they are dead bodies!"
Wang Zhijiang observed carefully with a telescope and saw that the thorns beside the river ditch at the foot of the mountain were shaking. He immediately said: "Platoon leader, arrange for a few soldiers to pay attention to that ditch. There may be hidden Japanese troops there."
"yes!"
When the Japs were more than two hundred meters away, a Japs officer raised his command knife and shouted something.
The other Japs started charging with their rifles in hand.
When the Japanese entered a distance of 150 meters, a platoon leader shouted: "Hit!"
Having said that, he pulled the trigger!
"Eight hooks!"
A bullet shot out and hit the Japanese officer. The bullet accurately hit the Japanese officer's left chest. He shook his sword and then fell to the ground.
"Eight hooks...eight hooks..."
The soldiers opened fire one after another.
The Japs fell one after another.
The other Japanese who were not shot immediately found cover and lay down on the ground. Then, they fired at this side!
Wang Zhijiang was most afraid of such a shooting situation. After all, there were many sharpshooters among the Japanese.
He hurriedly shouted: "Be careful to hide! Don't show up easily. Aim and shoot! Shoot once and change the place!"
Sure enough, the Japs started shooting!
Soldiers began to suffer casualties!
Wang Zhijiang was so anxious that his palms were sweating. He was about to call Yu Zecheng to ask for reinforcements.
At this time, he saw a dozen Japanese soldiers rushing out of the ditch.
Most of the soldiers were lying on the ground and did not observe this group of Japanese soldiers.
Wang Zhijiang immediately took off the big eight pills on his back, took a slight aim at the Japanese rushing in front, and then pulled the trigger!
"Snapped!"
The bullet hit the Japanese man in the chest. He twisted and fell to the ground.
When the platoon leader heard the gunfire from Dabali, he immediately raised his head. He saw the Japanese rushing over. He immediately raised his rifle, took aim slightly, and pulled the trigger!
"Eight hooks!"
The bullet hit a Japs.
The Japanese man shook his body, but still didn't stop and fell to the ground.
He then shouted: "Squad 1, kill the Japanese who are coming!"
"yes!"
A squad leader shouted.
Wang Zhijiang fired repeatedly and killed three Japanese soldiers one after another.
A platoon leader killed another Japanese soldier.
The remaining Japanese soldiers lay down in the ditch and began to shoot at Wang Zhijiang and the platoon leader again.
Wang Zhijiang saw that the casualties of his troops were increasing, and he was worried.
"Da da da... da da da..."
At this moment, gunshots appeared from behind the Japanese!
Wang Zhijiang was overjoyed. He knew that the machine gun company had come for reinforcements.
When the Japanese soldiers heard the intensive gunshots coming from behind them, they immediately turned around to deal with the oncoming machine gun company.
Wang Zhijiang immediately shouted: "Brothers, rush down! Attack this group of Japanese with machine guns!"
The soldiers were very aggrieved by being suppressed by the Japanese. When they saw the company commander leading the charge, they immediately charged down with their guns in hand.
The Japanese were attacked from both sides and retreated.
However, this time, Wang Zhijiang's infantry did not let the Japanese escape.
"Eight hooks...eight hooks...papa..."
The precise marksmanship of the riflemen came into play, and the Japanese fell one after another.
There were about a dozen Japanese who rushed to the side of the road.
Unexpectedly, two platoons of machine gunners also rushed over from the side of the highway. A total of twenty-four light machine guns intercepted and fired, killing more than a dozen Japanese and injuring them on the side of the highway.

On the front, after the Japanese captain heard the gunfire from the flank, he immediately organized the Japanese to conduct a feint attack!
A dozen Japanese soldiers rushed to the mountain pass, and before the soldiers of the 100th Battalion could fire, they lay down on the ground, and then looked for opportunities to shoot at the ambushed soldiers.
The other Japs were also ready to move and were ready for a frontal attack. Once the blocking force on the hilltop became loose, they would charge with all their strength and completely overwhelm the 100th Brigade's defense line.
"Da da da...eight hooks..."
The Japanese in the front never expected that a troop would come out from behind, and a machine gun would clear the way, and the rifle bullets would be extremely accurate.
The Japs' team suddenly fell into chaos!
On the top of the hill, heavy machine gun bullets began to plow the ground. The Japanese lying on the ground was plowed by the bullets and was either dead or seriously injured!
The Japanese Captain saw that the entire army was in a desperate situation, and the gunfire on the right wing had stopped. He knew that his army was surrounded. The only one who had any hope of joining him was the army commanded by Captain Fuqing Yefu.
.
He immediately shouted: "Withdraw to the west!"
Almost at the same time, gunshots also appeared on the west side!
Fuqing Yefu led about a hundred Japanese soldiers around a big bend, preparing to attack from behind the ambushing troops.
Unexpectedly, there was gunfire in front of me.
"Papa…papapa…"
Although the gunfire was sparse, it was almost a gunshot, and a locust army fell.
Fu Qingyefu knew that he had encountered a powerful force. In normal times, this would stimulate his high fighting spirit and he would definitely fight to the death with the enemy in front of him. However, in front of him, the entire brigade was in a precarious situation, and the whole army might be annihilated at any time. He
What I wanted to do was to return to Changsha alive and report the enemy situation here to the Regiment Headquarters and Division Headquarters.
He raised his command knife, waved it towards the north, and shouted: "Assault to the north!"
His intention was to bypass this section of the road and escape to Changsha, otherwise the entire brigade would be wiped out.
The Japs immediately rushed towards the north.
Li Zaitian's special force company had only a small number of people. It had to deal with enemies who might attack from the front, and it also had to divide its troops to block sneak attacks from the flanks. The front of the defense was very narrow.
The Japanese on the flank stopped attacking and just ran away.
The Japs on the front were also fleeing in this direction. All the pressure suddenly shifted to the Special Forces Company.
The soldiers didn't know which direction to attack the enemy.
Several squad leaders looked at Li Zaitian.
"Stop the Japanese in front!" Li Zaitian shouted.
Chapter completed!
