Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

Chapter 74: There are blockades ahead and pursuers behind us. We have only one way to go, which is t

The sound of fierce gunfire on the battlefield drowned out the buzzing sound of car engines. Under the command of Kojiro Hirata, four trucks slowly drove towards the Lion King Ridge position.

Lin Zhenhua saw the oncoming car through the car lights. He was not nervous but breathed a sigh of relief. He looked ahead and it was already dark.

"Comrades, try harder! Throw a wave of grenades first to scare the Japs, and then we'll retreat!"

Lin Zhenhua's order made the soldiers a little confused. They shouldn't have defended their positions at this time, but instead had to prepare to retreat. If they retreated now, they would most likely be caught by the Japanese. This made them a little uncertain for a while.

Lin Zhenhua saw the doubts in the soldiers' hearts and smiled grimly: "Comrades, it's getting dark now. We don't have any flares, and even if the Japanese have some, they won't have many. In addition, there is snow all around, so it's not easy to collect firewood, not to mention that the firewood is wet, and it will take a lot of effort to light it!"

"Besides, the things I asked you to bury before are specifically aimed at the Japanese infantry. As long as the Japanese enter the range of 100 meters from our main position of Lion King Ridge, the minefield under our feet will be detonated, and then we can retreat calmly!"

After listening to Lin Zhenhua's explanation, the soldiers all smiled happily. Each of them threw more than a dozen melon grenades, which scared the Japanese soldiers who had sneaked into the palace in the dark. They packed up their things, put them on the horses, and left the position.

Under Lin Zhenhua's command, the three squads of soldiers quickly assembled and started their journey back, leading their horses.

"Bagayalu! The machine gun shooting has stopped. The Chinese on the opposite side are trying to escape. Charge up immediately and stop them from escaping!"

At the moment when the machine guns at the Lion King Ridge blocking position stopped firing, the Japanese launched another attack in the dark. When they came to a distance of seventy or eighty meters, they felt something strange under their feet. As soon as they raised their feet, they heard a bang. The mine triggered by the infantry exploded, and the scattered steel balls shot towards the bodies of the Japanese infantry. The Japanese infantry who were hit let out a shrill scream. The mines and explosions continued, and the Inoue squad that launched the attack suffered heavy losses.

"Quickly launch flares to guide the attacking troops!"

At Ono Taro's command, several flares were fired into the air, and for a moment it was as bright as day. Hirata Kojiro used the temporary light to see that Lin Zhenhua had evacuated from the position and began to flee into the distance. He shouted angrily, "Baga! Order the artillery to fire immediately and destroy the mines ahead!"

The artillery squad received the order and began loading shells into the gun barrels, aiming at areas where mines might exist and began covering fire.

Lin Zhenhua listened to the artillery fire coming from far behind, and secretly groaned in his heart. He didn't expect the Japanese to be willing to use so many shells to clear the obstacles. This time he really underestimated the Japanese, but he couldn't show it on his face. He also had to give confidence to the soldiers. He said nonchalantly: "Haha, the Japanese have been fooled again this time! If we want to destroy all the mines we have laid, even if the Japanese use indiscriminate artillery fire, it will take at least half an hour, and it may not be able to clear them all."

"With this half-hour buffer, we would have already run away. But in order to make it more difficult for the Japanese, we will place three or five anti-personnel mines every mile or so. This will definitely make the Japanese suffer a lot!"

"Li Sanwa, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll leave six horses for you. You and two other people will be in charge of this matter. You can be casual about the distance and don't be so precise. We can't let the Japanese detect the pattern. I'll take the main force and the wounded away first, and you hurry up and catch up!"

Li Sanwa didn't expect that Lin Zhenhua would give him such an important task, and he immediately promised: "Captain Lin, please rest assured, I promise to complete the task!"

After arranging all this, Lin Zhenhua continued to lead the remaining soldiers to start the transfer. In the previous battle, two soldiers were sacrificed and two soldiers were slightly injured. This made Lin Zhenhua feel a little sad, but there is always death in war, so he could only hide his sadness in his heart and get through the current crisis first.

After traveling for eight hours, they finally arrived at the troop's campsite at around two o'clock in the morning of the next day. Without even having time to eat a hot meal, Lin Zhenhua hurriedly called everyone to a meeting to adjust the deployment.

Lin Zhenhua asked anxiously, "Duan Peng, you have lived nearby since you were a child. Is there a cave that is relatively large enough to accommodate us for a few days?"

Duan Peng was a little overwhelmed as it was his first combat meeting, but Lin Zhenhua's eagerness made him forget about being nervous and he quickly replied: "Captain Lin, we are now at the tail end of Luliang Mountain. Five miles north from here, we can enter the Motianling of Luliang Mountain. A mile or so inside, there is an ancient treasure cave, but now there is snow in the mountain, and it is very difficult to walk inside. If you are not careful, you may lose your life. I think it is better for Captain Lin not to go into the mountain!"

Lin Zhenhua thought he could find a way out from Duan Peng, but he didn't expect that this damn heavy snow would also cut off this chance of survival. He concealed his panic and said calmly, "Now let me tell you about the situation we are facing. There is a battalion of puppet troops stationed 20 miles away from us, and there is a half-squadron of Japanese soldiers chasing us from behind. We are now in a dilemma of being attacked from both sides."

"Originally I wanted to lead everyone into the mountains, but the mountains were blocked by heavy snow and it is too dangerous inside. We are now in a desperate situation. If you have any good suggestions, please tell us and we can think of a solution together!"

The dire situation made the squad leaders panic. They racked their brains but couldn't come up with any ideas. Finally, they summed it up in one sentence: "Captain Lin, why don't we fight the Japanese? If we kill one, we won't lose. If we kill two, we'll win. Anyway, they will never surrender!"

Lin Zhenhua sighed. At this moment, he wished that Li Yunlong was by his side so that he could have someone to help him with ideas. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. He silently said "sign in" in his heart, and a pleasant voice came out!

"Ding Dong, the system has signed in successfully, and I have been awarded rocket manufacturing technology."

Lin Zhenhua thought that the system sign-in would produce a magical weapon, but he didn't expect that it was just rocket production technology, which was of no help to his current situation. In desperation, he made up his mind and said, "There are blockades in front and pursuers behind. We have only one way to go now, which is to go into the mountains. Notify everyone and start preparing immediately. We will go into the mountains after dawn!"
