"Night attack is the best way!" Zhao Zhiguo said.

Lacking firepower and terrain advantages, only night is their best cover.

"Can you think of something reliable? If we don't attack and contain the Japanese army, the Japanese army will already be gathering forces and marching deeper into our defense area."

It is not that Commander Hu's attack was ineffective. Their attack was able to contain the Japanese troops on the position. Otherwise, the Japanese troops on the position would have already marched towards the regiment headquarters.

"Captain, even if we have to march from here to the regiment headquarters, it will take more than two hours. They are worried about an ambush, so they will definitely not march in a hurry. There are many mountains nearby, and we can walk through these small roads in the mountains.

It also takes five hours, right?”

Although the little devils had opened a breakthrough, they did not dare to penetrate directly in depth. Not to mention whether the Japanese officers leading the team were familiar with the terrain, but as long as there was an army harassing their march on the road, they would not be able to penetrate in five hours, let alone ten hours.

It may not be possible to reach the regiment headquarters.

Upon hearing Zhao Zhiguo's words, Commander Hu immediately grasped something: "Ambush?"

"Yao Pengju, open the map!" Zhao Zhiguo ordered, "Commander, look, from here to our regiment headquarters, except for about one kilometer here, the terrain is gentle, and the rest of the place is complex mountainous terrain. As long as we keep setting up ambushes on the road, it will be completely

Can you delay the little devil for a day and a night?"

"Keep talking!" Commander Hu gradually calmed down from the anger of losing his position.

"In this mountain, the Japs have no rear support. They dare not spend the night. At night, our troops can get close to them. Our machine guns are not as good as those of the Japanese, but we have hand grenades. We use the night to get close to them and fight them in close combat.

Just throw a grenade."

The combat effectiveness of the soldiers in their army is indeed not as good as that of the Japanese army, but anyone can use grenades. Although the power is not great, as long as they are thrown accurately, they can still knock down the little devils.

"We can also send a force close to the position in the middle of the night. It is best if we can retake the position. Even if we cannot retake the position, if the Japanese army penetrates into our regiment's defense area from here, we can use the terrain to consume the Japanese army little by little and let the troops

Take advantage and run away."

"The method is good. What if the Japanese army attacks your position directly from here?"

"Captain, how many Japanese troops do you think we can put behind us? There is not even a proper road from here to our position. Even if the Japanese army can send a squadron over, we can block their attack during the day, and they will definitely attack at night.

They didn’t dare to set up camp in the mountains, so they had no choice but to retreat. Since supplies were difficult and they couldn’t set up camp, they could only send small groups to harass us.”

It's not that Zhao Zhiguo looked down on the little devil. He did think carefully on the way here. Although three kilometers is not far away, these three kilometers are not a flat road. There are thorns and steep slopes everywhere. The Japanese logistics troops have no way to help them.

They provide supplies.

There is only one small road coming down from the position, and this small road leads to the county seat and then merges with the main road.

"I still want to take back the position. We can't let the little Japs into our defense zone. There are still some villages in the mountains." Commander Hu said, "Since the division commander has given this place to me, I, Hu Xiankai, will never let anyone inside the defense zone."

Innocent people were harmed."

"Captain, I understand what you mean. In the middle of the night, you can hand over the reconnaissance company to me and I will lead them to retake the position." Zhao Zhiguo assured Commander Hu.

"Okay! The messenger, notify the commander of the reconnaissance company and ask him to obey Battalion Commander Zhao's command. The rest of the troops will follow me up the mountain!" Captain Hu said, "Leave the ambush to me, and leave the matters on the position to you.

, as long as we win the position, we can pay any price."

Captain Hu knew very well that dealing with the Japanese army in the mountains was not a long-term solution. If the Japs did not make progress for a long time, they would use the breakthrough as a fulcrum to continuously attack other surrounding positions. He believed that Zhao Zhiguo would definitely be able to hold the position, but other

Where is the company's position?

The gaps in the defense line will become larger and larger, and more and more small roads will be controlled by the Japanese army. By then, they will be able to get rid of Commander Hu's harassment in the mountains.

"Sir Zhao, I am Yu Wenbo, the commander of the reconnaissance company. All officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance company will obey your orders from now on."

"How many soldiers do you have under your command?" Zhao Zhiguo asked.

"More than forty people were killed during the attack, and there are less than eighty left!" Yu Wenbo replied.

"How many veterans are there?"

"More than twenty!"

"Group them into groups of three as quickly as possible, and try to match one veteran with two recruits. These three people are like Siamese twins." Zhao Zhiguo ordered, "From now on until we regain the position, the veterans will go.

Toilet, the other two recruits must also follow the veterans and must not be separated."

"Sir, why is this?" Yu Wenbo asked.

"When we rush to the position and fight hand-to-hand with the Japs, you will understand and execute the order," Zhao Zhiguo did not explain, "Yao Pengju, inform Dianhou to aim our artillery guns at the Japanese tanks, whether you can or not

To blow up the Japanese tanks, we must make their tanks feel threatened."

After arranging everything, Zhao Zhiguo led the soldiers of the reconnaissance company up the mountain.

Commander Hu also began to lead his troops to make deployments using the surrounding terrain, preparing to ambush the Japanese troops who might enter the mountains at any time.

When the little devils saw that the attacking Chinese troops had withdrawn, they immediately sent a small team to explore the path along the mountain path.

But just ten minutes after the Japanese team left, gunshots and explosions came from the mountains. Soon the Japanese soldiers of this team fled back to their positions, but only half of the troops were left, and the other half of the soldiers were buried in the mountain.

In the mountains.

Captain Hu looked at the corpses of the Japanese soldiers on the path and nodded with satisfaction: "It's Zhao Zhiguo's brains that works best. The tide is turning. It's the little devil's turn to suffer. Let the soldiers pick up weapons and ammunition. We will move immediately."

After finally letting the little Japanese suffer a loss, Captain Hu was also happy and the morale of the soldiers also improved.

Before dark, the little devils sent out troops many times, but they were all ambushed by the Chinese army. Although the troops came back, they lost more than a hundred troops.

It was getting dark, and the little devils did not dare to take risks in the dark. After all, there were Chinese troops everywhere in the mountains, and the possibility of encountering an ambush at night was greater.

Commander Hu watched the sky getting dark. He knew that it was up to Zhao Zhiguo whether the position could be recaptured. He also led his troops closer to the position. Once gunfire rang out on the position, they would be able to rush to the position in time.
