The Japanese commander on the front line hung up the phone, feeling restless.

He sent out almost all the surrounding troops, leaving only a small group of troops behind.

The headquarters did not send him additional reinforcements. At this time, he only hoped that the situation on the position could be reversed.

In the darkness, gunshots were still ringing, and because the weapons were all of the same model, no one could tell in which direction the battle was evolving.

Yao Pengju led his troops to the rear of the Japanese stronghold, and he fired a green flare into the sky.

According to the original agreement, if a green flare is also fired on the mountain, it means they can pass.

But Yao Pengju heard the gunshots rang out on the position, and the little Japanese commander couldn't judge the situation on the position, let alone what was happening on the position.

The green signal flare alerted the Japanese commanders at the front line.

The little Japanese frontline commander was a little frightened. He mistakenly thought that a Chinese army had infiltrated near their headquarters.

He immediately ordered all troops to be on full alert to prevent the Chinese army from attacking them.

The soldiers of the Second Battalion and the Japs on the hilltop also saw this green signal flare.

Because only a few commanders knew about the green flare, the soldiers of the second battalion thought it was a flare fired by a Japs.

The little Japanese soldiers were also confused. It seemed that the signal flare was fired from the direction of their headquarters.

Could this signal be meant to make them retreat?

"Batalion Commander, it's Captain Yao and they're here!" A soldier pointed at the rising signal flare.

"How's the battle going?"

Qin Dongsheng frowned.

If they fail to capture the position, Yao Pengju and the others will take greater risks and retreat from other directions.

"The Japs are increasing their troops very quickly. The strength of the troops on the position is already comparable to ours. However, we have sent two more companies up. In another half hour, we will be able to drive the Japs out of the position.

"

The strength of a fully formed brigade of the Little Devils is more than 1,200.

Due to continuous expansion, the Second Battalion maintains its strength at 1,670 men.

The total strength is greater than that of a single brigade of the Japanese army.

The Japs also left behind a force protection headquarters. The Japanese reinforcements had reached their limit, but Qin Dongsheng still had two companies of mobile troops around him.

"It's a pity that Yao Pengju didn't bring a radio. It would have been nice to take advantage of the empty rear of the Japanese army to attack the Japanese army headquarters!"

Qin Dongsheng was troubled because he could not send messages to Yao Pengju thousands of miles away.

While Qin Dongsheng was racking his brains to think of a solution, Zhao Zhiguo came to the front, and he also saw the green flare.

"Fire a red flare!" Zhao Zhiguo ordered.

"Captain, I'm afraid Lao Yao doesn't know what the red flare means!"

The red signal flare is the signal for the general offensive of the troops and has no other meaning.

"Yao Pengju will understand!" Zhao Zhiguo said.

A red signal flare burned slowly above the position, and then slowly fell down again.

Yao Pengju, who had been waiting for a long time, did not see the signal flare rising, and was about to lead his troops to retreat according to plan No. 2.

"Captain, flare!"

A soldier quickly pulled Yao Pengju and pointed in the direction of the position.

"No! Why is it red?" Yao Pengju was dumbfounded, "Did I remember it wrong?"

"Captain, I remember correctly. I also clearly remember that the green flare is the one that allows us to retreat safely. Could it be that we have run out of green flares?"

"That's nonsense. The flares are not used as bullets. They are used up when they are said to be used up? Something must have happened!"

Yao Pengju squatted on the ground, thinking hard about the meaning of the red flare.

"It has been agreed that the red signal flare is a signal for a general attack, not a signal for retreat." The soldier explained again.

"A signal to attack?" Yao Pengju suddenly thought of something, "Could it be that the Japanese army sent all their troops to the position and is this the reason why the Second Battalion has not taken the position?"

There were still gunshots on the position, which showed that the position had not been taken, and the second battalion did not give up the attack.

"Captain, could it be that the Second Battalion contained the main force of the Japanese army?"

"It is very possible that the main force of the Japanese army has been contained. The Japanese army's stronghold is near the Japanese army headquarters. There must not be many troops. We are in this position and the Japanese army command headquarters is in a critical position."

No one is in a better position than the team.

"Start reconnaissance around you immediately!"

The signal flare just now must have alerted the little devil.

If the Japs have enough troops, they will definitely send troops to surround the location where the signal flares were fired.

If there are no Japanese troops advancing in their direction, it means that the Japanese troops are insufficient.

After reconnaissance, as Qin Dongsheng expected, the Japanese troops did not have many troops in the stronghold, and they all shrank to the core area at this time.

"The first and second detachments are following me, the third detachment is going behind, and the fourth detachment is responsible for fire support from the outside..."

When he discovered that there were no troops near the Japanese military headquarters, Yao Pengju decided to disguise themselves as Japanese soldiers and walk directly and openly to the core area of ​​the Japanese military stronghold.

In the dark night, a Japanese army unit was openly approaching the Japanese stronghold.

"Who! Password!"

The little devil is very vigilant.

Yao Pengju and the others had already received the command when they attacked the Japanese artillery position.

After answering the command, Yao Pengju immediately shouted: "The artillery position was attacked and communications were interrupted. Our captain asked us to convey the news. There is a Chinese army operating near us. Let all troops be more vigilant. Can I borrow your communication equipment?

One use.”

If there was an explosion at the Japanese artillery position, they would definitely not be able to hide it from these little devils.

Yao Pengju could only say that he was from the artillery unit, and that their commander sent them to remind them to be careful of being attacked by the Chinese army.

The Japanese soldiers had no problem hearing the command, so they let Yao Pengju and the others get closer.

But when Yao Pengju and others approached, the Japanese army discovered that their equipment was different.

The Japanese army was not equipped with submachine guns at all, but these soldiers were all carrying Thompson submachine guns.

The artillery force is even less likely to have such elite equipment.

"Stop!" the Japanese soldier shouted.

"Do it!"

Yao Peng gave an order.

"Da da da"

In close combat, the submachine gun swept away fallen leaves like the autumn wind, and the little devil had no chance to fight back.

The little devils outside all lay down in the blink of an eye.

"Group of two, clean out the enemy! Be sure to find the Japanese commander!" Yao Pengju gestured.

The soldiers immediately organized themselves into groups and began to pick out the Japanese soldiers one by one.
Chapter completed!
