I fought guerrilla warfare in the Yimeng Mountains during the Anti-Japanese War
Chapter 308 Ambush at Grandma Mountain
Seishirō Sakagami knew very well how powerful the Cold Gun Team's special operations were, so he chose to set up camp at nightfall. He placed heavy weapons and munitions that were easy targets for attack in the innermost circle, and built layers of defense for a team of nearly 20,000 people. Unless the Cold Gun Team's special operations could go up into the sky and drill into the ground, they would have no chance.
At the Xiong'er Mountain garrison, the commander of the Second Battalion of the Guard Regiment, Zhuang Suqing, was discussing countermeasures with several company commanders. Then news came from the special operations team that the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army had come to a standstill and had set up camp at dark. The barracks were heavily guarded and there was no chance of an ambush without force. In addition, the Fifth Division also conducted very detailed reconnaissance while marching, so there was little chance of an ambush.
After discussing for a long time, they still couldn't come up with any good solution. Zhuang Suqing looked at the map. There were almost no dangerous places from the camp where the Fifth Division was currently stationed to Lincheng, and an ambush was too difficult. If they laid mines, it would delay the enemy's speed. However, the captain repeatedly ordered that laying mines was strictly prohibited unless it was absolutely necessary. The Japanese army was cruel by nature and might very likely capture civilians to step on mines.
Zhuang Suqing was about to give up and wanted to order the special forces to be recalled, but before he could say anything, his eyes suddenly narrowed and focused, and three words on the map came into his sight: Nainai Mountain. There is a chance, but it's a pity that it is too close to Lincheng. But what does it matter? What is the difference between facing a division of 20,000 people and facing a division of 21,000 troops plus the Lincheng garrison battalion?
"Order"!
The three company commanders stood up solemnly.
"Send a telegram to the special forces, ordering them to head north to Lincheng and reach Nainai Mountain south of Lincheng to survey the terrain, find a suitable ambush site, set up a booby trap, and wait for the arrival of the rocket troops."
"Gather the rocket soldiers from the first, second and third companies and the battalion headquarters. Each rocket soldier group can only carry two armor-piercing shells. Also notify the first company's machine gun platoon to bring four MG34 machine guns and only a basic amount of ammunition. Set off now, one person with two horses, and we must set up an ambush in Grandma Mountain before dawn."
There were 700 rocket launchers on Mount Meng. 200 were left on the mountain, 125 were given to each regiment that went down the mountain, 35 were left at the guard regiment headquarters, and 30 were given to each of the three battalions.
Ten minutes later, Zhuang Suqing and the company commander set off with their troops. Their horses galloped straight to Nainai Mountain south of Lincheng.
On the way, Zhuang Suqing and the company commander arranged combat tasks while riding.
"First Company Commander, when we arrive at Nainai Mountain, you will lead the machine gun platoon to set up an ambush one kilometer to the east of the mountain. The machine guns should be fifty meters apart. After we are done with the ambush, we will retreat eastward. If the Japanese army comes to pursue us, you must use up your ammunition and evacuate as quickly as possible. The special forces will cover you. You cannot lose your machine guns. Do you understand?"
"I understand, Battalion Commander, don't worry, leave the machine gun platoon to me. If the Japanese dare to chase us, we will send them to heaven."
It was already four in the morning when the team arrived at Grandma Mountain. The special forces had already found an ambush position. To the west of Grandma Mountain was the main road leading to Lincheng, and the large Japanese army would definitely pass through here. It was impossible to set up an ambush on the mountain as it would be easy to be exposed. However, there was a patch of red grass on the east side of the road to the north of Grandma Mountain. The half-meter-deep red grass could completely cover the ambushing soldiers.
The rocket troops began to set up an ambush. The red grassland was only 150 meters away from the highway, and the risk of setting an ambush at this location was relatively high.
Zhuang Suqing ordered all the ambush personnel, including himself, that everyone could die in battle, but the rocket launchers must not be lost. After the sneak attack, the special forces would cover the retreat of the rocket soldiers, and the special forces had to ensure that all the rocket launchers were not lost before they could retreat.
The rocket soldiers retreated to the place where the horses were tied and immediately rode back to Xiong'er Mountain, not caring about anything else. Even if the special forces and machine gun platoon behind them were surrounded by the Japanese army, they were not allowed to look back.
Before dawn, the special forces and rocket soldiers were ready for an ambush, and a booby trap was set up between the ambush site and the highway. In order to prevent the Japanese search team from encountering the booby traps, the booby trap was a hundred meters away from the highway and only fifty meters away from the ambush line. This was the first barrier to hold off the Japanese army during their retreat, and it could only serve to delay the team.
At daybreak, Zhuang Suqing used a telescope to check the ambush position on Grandma Mountain. It was very good. The soldiers' concealment was very detailed. Even when he used a telescope, he could not see anyone lying in the grass.
The machine gun positions have also been set up, just one thousand meters east of the ambush line. All four machine gun positions are concealed, and the machine guns cannot be seen from the positions. Once the sneak attack begins, the machine guns can be instantly lifted up and can shoot within ten seconds.
At 75: in the morning, the vanguard of the Japanese army arrived. Two motorcycles equipped with Type light machine guns led the way, and a truck towing a mm field gun followed behind. A Type heavy machine gun was mounted on the roof of the truck. Trucks were so scarce that even reconnaissance trucks had to carry a mm field gun.
Before we reached Grandma Mountain, three vehicles stopped and three machine guns opened fire at Grandma Mountain. Grandma Mountain was not very high, and the vegetation on the mountain had been cut down and burned by nearby villagers, leaving it bare at a glance.
Even so, the Japanese vanguard reconnaissance team still fired at Naina Mountain for two minutes. That was not the end. After the shooting, the soldiers on the truck jumped off and rushed towards Naina Mountain with Type 38 rifles to make sure whether Naina Mountain was really safe.
The company commander at the machine gun position saw the situation through a telescope and was very impressed with the special forces. If the ambush site had been chosen at Nainai Mountain, it would now be exposed and the ambush would have become a joke.
After the reconnaissance, the large force behind also appeared. The soldiers returned to the truck and signaled with flags. The three vehicles continued to move forward. After passing Grandma Mountain, the scouts on the three vehicles did not even consider the bushes next to them. They had been doing this all the way. At the beginning, they were conducting a comprehensive reconnaissance. Later, the division commander thought the speed was too slow and notified the vanguard troops to focus on the reconnaissance. They were about to reach Lincheng, and the vanguard troops had already relaxed.
When Zhuang Suqing saw the vanguard troops leaving, he felt relieved. The ambush was 90% successful. The rest depended on how many tanks and armored vehicles could be destroyed.
Ten minutes later, the main force arrived, with four rows of troops marching side by side. The Japanese army's march was a little impatient, and the dust on the road was flying. It took the infantry formation of 20,000 troops half an hour to pass the ambush point. Then came the tanks. Before the tanks showed up, a rumbling sound came from the south of Nainai Mountain. Lying on the ground, you could feel a distinct vibration. Behind the tanks were tanks, which were an important ambush target for the rocket troops. Behind the tanks were heavy artillery towed by trucks. When all the tanks appeared, the heavy artillery trucks also appeared from the west side of Nainai Mountain, and Zhuang Suqing fired a signal flare.
call out!
Even if the scene was noisy, the rocket soldiers could hear the sharp sound of the flares, show their heads, aim, pull the trigger, and thirty rocket launchers were fired at the same time.
Chi Chi Chi!
Thirty armor-piercing shells left white smoke and rushed towards the road. The moment the rocket flew out, the auxiliary soldier immediately loaded the warhead, continued to aim, and pulled the trigger without caring whether it could hit the target or not.
