Chapter 487: Fighting


The 3rd Infantry Squadron of the Teaching Brigade led by Zhang Wei, with a platoon of heavy machine gun companies of the Heavy Firepower Squadron, was hidden in the field on the left side of the position.

An infantry squad of twelve men did not all go out, but all the people who went up were riflemen, scattered, with concealments made of vegetation hanging on their bodies, crawling and advancing cautiously.

Zhang Wei was in the field in the rear, a little nervously watching these soldiers crawl forward and let them drive forward, not only to shorten the distance between them and the Japanese army, but also to detect the movement of the opposite side in time.

Zheng Yiqun, who had sent people forward, climbed to Zhang Wei's side again.

"Captain, the people have gone up, and the heavy machine gun platoon has been done over there."

Zheng Yiqun cautiously pointed back at the heavy machine gun behind the two men.

The officers and men of the heavy machine-gun platoon of the heavy fire squadron moved forward with the machine guns for some distance, originally at the rear of the infantry team of the third squadron, but now advanced to a distance of thirty meters from the first line.

Zhang Wei said to Zheng Yiqun: "Let the two guns of the machine gun platoon continue to move forward and come to the position of the two of us."

Zhang Wei turned around, a platoon of heavy machine gunners were operating guns, two ZB37 heavy machine guns had been prepared, and the guns were also covered with concealment, and machine gun shooters and gunners were on standby near the heavy machine guns.

The Japanese army's alert level was greatly increased, and it was impossible for Zhang Wei to push the 3rd Squadron and the heavy machine gun platoon forward, and the main force could only stay in its current position, which was far away from the Japanese army, and the 3rd Squadron was equipped with support firearms, and the maximum firing range of the Type 27 grenadier and Type 28 grenades was only more than 200 meters, and the distance between the alert Japanese army and the 3rd Squadron was greater than this distance.

The Japanese troops who were not on guard were fired, and the weapons were operated by people, and the distance was too far to hit the head, so the only effective firearms were the two heavy machine guns of the machine gun platoon.

"Yes" The heavy machine gun platoon continued to move forward, the machine gunners half-squatted on the ground, carrying the tripods of the machine guns, and advanced in a squatting position as concealed as possible, a large number of machine gunners and ammunition soldiers followed up with tools and spare ammunition, and the machine gun positions were changed to the positions of Zhang Wei and Zheng Yiqun, if there was an emergency, these two machine guns would be the fastest response support firepower.

People were sent in front, and the heavy machine guns around were also pulled up, and the third squadron that was lurking up had already done what it could, and under the premise that Zhang Wei could not fire in advance, the third squadron was destined not to make any big moves, and now it was just a word and waited, waiting until the sapper platoon on the opposite side started fighting.

The target of the third squadron, the alert force of the Japanese army, the alert force at the end of the position on the right side of the Takeda Brigade has been increased from one detachment to the strength of a small team, and two heavy machine guns have also been strengthened.

A squad of infantry, with a clear division of labor, some are on guard on the spot, and some are patrolling in scattered areas to detect possible "small groups of stragglers" of the Chinese army. ” "Heighten vigilance" The Japanese squad leader shouted in an ugly voice next to the heavy machine gun position, urging his subordinate troops to increase their vigilance, and the two Type 92 heavy machine guns next to the squad leader were pushed onto the bomb protection board, one in front and one behind them, and occasionally the signal corps attached to the squad leader would come over and pass messages to each other in the position of the squad leader and the teaching brigade, and the degree of vigilance was far more strict than the previous position of only one infantry detachment.

The Japanese infantry on the spot on the spot widened their eyes and looked in the direction of the formation of the teaching brigade, and some were looking backwards, and the 11-year-old light machine guns attached to the detachment also built simple machine gun positions, and the Japanese infantry who supplemented each other's firepower with the heavy machine guns, and the Japanese infantry who were patrolling in all directions were carrying out a search and reconnaissance mission for the stragglers of the Chinese army.

Through the process of annihilation of the alert infantry detachment, Takeda Masayuki believed that the frontal teaching brigade sent a small group of stragglers to lurk behind the position on the right side of the Takeda brigade, which is why there are now these Japanese troops who are on alert in two directions and the Japanese troops who are scattered and searching in the field.

The Japanese soldiers who patrolled and searched for the four patrols were armed with bayonet rifles, and their individual soldiers were far apart, and while advancing in the field, they looked around, and when they encountered vegetation and potholes in the field, they had to stab them with bayonets of the 38 guns to see if there were any stragglers of the Chinese army who were concealed.

As a result, of course, I couldn't even find a soldier's hair.

A detachment of Japanese troops, in the rear demarcated warning area, over and over again rummaged for the Chinese army's stragglers, those on the spot guard, compared with them, compared with them, the patrol and search of the Japanese infantry detachment, as if ploughing, searched over and over again in the warning area, but found nothing.

"Squad leader, I still haven't found it."

A Japanese soldier reported to the leader of the patrol and search detachment that after several searches, he still found nothing, and the result of this was either that the Chinese army was too well concealed, or there were no stragglers nearby, and it was obvious that the latter was more likely.

If there were really people, how could they not find the leader of the detachment and saw that the search was fruitless, so he ordered the team to be closed, intending to go back to resume his life.

"Every single one of them has been carefully checked" "All the potholes and places that may be hidden have been carefully checked, and there is nothing suspicious."

The team leader sighed, and searched many times to no avail, so he could only go back and report first.

"Assemble the whole detachment and go back and report to the squad leader."

"Platoon commander, I've checked, the devil has a squad, and there are heavy machine guns, and the firepower is complete, which just blocked our way back, it's not good."

The platoon attached of the engineer platoon said to He Jinhai, the platoon commander next to him, and He Jinhai's head was already full of cold sweat.

In the field more than 60 meters away from the Japanese search detachment that had collected the convoy, dozens of heavily armed Chinese soldiers lay down and hid in the field, looking at the Japanese troops who had collected the convoy and returned.

However, it was not the stragglers of the Chinese army as they expected, but a whole platoon of Chinese troops.

He Jinhai's engineer platoon returned all the way along the Nanbin Highway, and the journey went smoothly, but at the last moment, when it was about to reach the cordon that it easily passed at the time of departure, the outpost of the engineer platoon gave He Jinhai a big gift package, and the Japanese army's vigilance had been increased, blocking the road leading to the position of the teaching brigade.

There was danger ahead, so he could only brake sharply and stop the team, He Jinhai immediately ordered the whole engineer platoon to hide on the spot and observe the enemy.

The situation is very clear, against the Japanese army of this scale, equipped with heavy firepower, blocking their own way, He Jinhai and the soldiers of the engineer platoon knew that there was no other way, only one word.
