Devil's Army

Chapter 584: Preparing to Retake the Jinhua Mountain Position

The second company commander knew that the Japanese would definitely check the bodies of their fallen comrades in the fortifications after they occupied the Jinhuashan position. Since they failed to fulfill their responsibility to kill the Japanese, they let their fallen comrades fulfill this responsibility for them.

The second company commander ordered several soldiers to bury booby traps under the bodies of their fallen comrades, with adjacent booby traps connected to each other. This way, when one booby trap is detonated, several adjacent booby traps will also be detonated. This will maximize the killing of the Japanese.

The Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain saw through telescopes that the devilish troops in the position had retreated, and immediately arranged for their infantry to move forward and occupy the position.

The Japanese soldiers who rushed to the Jinhua Mountain position checked each body one by one to prevent the soldiers of the Devil's Army who were not completely dead from attacking them.

Suddenly, the Japanese soldiers who were checking the bodies of the First Army soldiers on the battlefield and in the fortifications found white smoke coming out from under the soldiers. They shouted, "There are mines!" and hurriedly ran around.

But it was too late. With a series of grenade explosions, the Japanese soldiers on the positions and in the fortifications fell down one after another.

The second captain looked at the smoke and dust rising behind him and breathed a sigh of relief. He finally let out a sigh of relief.

The Second and Third Regiments of the Fifth Brigade dug fortifications and set up ambushes on Jinhua Mountain, preparing to attack the Japanese troops who passed through Jinhua Mountain.

However, what the Fifth Brigade Commander did not expect was that after the Japanese occupied the Jinhua Mountain position, they did not strike while the iron was hot and continue to advance towards Jianchang County, but instead stationed outside Jinhua Mountain.

"It seems that this group of Japanese devils have become cautious. If they don't advance at night, we will send people to capture the Jinhua Mountain position." The first regiment commander said to the second battalion commander.

The second battalion commander was of course very happy to hear what the first regiment commander said. Their battalion had lost the Jinhua Mountain position, and everyone in the battalion was holding back their anger.

The Japanese did not continue their attack until the evening, and patrols kept coming and going in the Japanese camp at the foot of Jinhua Mountain.

The second battalion commander arranged for the third company to attack the Jinhua Mountain position at twelve o'clock in the morning.

The second company commander hurried forward to ask for orders.

The second battalion commander glared at him and said, "You are my father, how dare I give you orders?"

The second company commander came forward with a smile and said, "I am your son-in-law. I will do whatever you tell me to do."

"Well, go back and rest now."

"No, Captain!"

"Just now you said you would do whatever I told you to do, and now you regret it?"

"Captain, besides letting us rest, we will definitely attack wherever you point us, without any ambiguity."

At this time, the second battalion commander sighed and continued, "You only have so few people left in your company. Can you take the Jinhua Mountain position?"

"We can act together with the Third Company."

"Then can you absolutely obey the actions of the Third Company?"

"As long as we can kill the devils and avenge our dead brothers, I will obey the orders of a soldier!"

The third company commander standing next to the second battalion commander laughed secretly. The second company commander also tried his best to fight the Japanese.

"Okay, go back and prepare, and follow the Third Company tonight."

"Thank you, Battalion Commander," the second company commander saluted the second battalion commander and ran out quickly.

At twelve o'clock in the morning, the third company commander led the remaining soldiers of the third and second companies and quietly climbed up Jinhua Mountain.

Since the Second Company had been stationed at the Jinhua Mountain position, it led the team as the vanguard.

The second company moved towards the Jinhua Mountain position with familiarity. The closer they got to the Jinhua Mountain position, the more dangerous it became, and the density of the Japanese patrols increased.

When they reached the outskirts of Jinhua Mountain, the second company commander looked at the frequent patrol teams of the Japanese soldiers and discussed with the third company commander that their second company should identify the patrol team of the Japanese soldiers. Otherwise, the Japanese soldiers would have discovered them before they passed this section of the road.

The third captain nodded and warned, "Be careful."

The second company commander then arranged the tasks. There were a total of 16 Japanese soldiers in this patrol squad, and the second company commander asked every two soldiers to deal with one Japanese soldier. One soldier would knock the Japanese soldier down, and another soldier would come forward to finish him off. He also asked the soldiers to repeat their goals.

After arranging all this, the second company commander took the 32 soldiers to ambush on the route that the Japanese patrol team that had just left must pass.

After a while, the Japanese patrol team came back again. Some of the Japanese were yawning as they walked.

The Japanese patrol squad all entered the ambush circle of the second company. The second company commander waved his hand and shouted softly: "Go!" Thirty-two black shadows pounced on the Japanese patrol squad.

In less than two minutes, all the Japanese patrol team were killed.

A Japanese sergeant in the fortification seemed to have heard some noise, and quickly woke up a sergeant next to him and said:

"Sergeant, did you hear anything?"

The sergeant listened carefully for a while, but there was only the sound of the north wind blowing and the rustling of branches. He couldn't help but curse:

"Are you too idle during the day to be here chasing shadows?"

The sergeant was scolded, but he was unwilling to give up and listened carefully for a while. However, he still only heard the whistling of the north wind.

The sergeant thought that maybe he really had misheard, so he held the gun and closed his eyes again.

The second company commander and his men successfully got to the two Japanese sentries.

Four soldiers rushed forward...

This time, the sergeant was startled again by the knockdown of the Japanese sentry. The sergeant stood up with his gun in hand and shouted:

"Who?"

The Japanese soldiers next to them were also awakened.
