Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army

A small team is hiding in the ruins.

That was the 2nd team led by Tang Junping. They had already set up an ambush around Jingpo Lake Town!

Tang Junping lay on the ground, aiming his pistol at a scout. As the target got closer, he suddenly pulled the trigger.

After a burst of gunfire, 16 scouts fell down! Only 16 ownerless wolfhounds were left running around in panic!

There are many veterans in Team 2, starting with Tang Junping, nicknamed Nine-gun Eight, and they are all very accurate in shooting!

However, these scouts were also very smart. They lined up in a long snake formation. When those in front were ambushed, those at the back turned around and ran away!

Soon, the second row of gunfire rang out again. Three scouts ran away, leaving a pile of human and dog corpses on the ground!

After Tang Junping completed the ambush, he only left two soldiers in the town to guard and then evacuated.

He has learned the essence of Yan Wang's guerrilla warfare a lot. Survival is the first element of guerrilla warfare!

Moreover, this time, Yan Wang did not ask him to defend Jingpo Lake Town to the death, but only asked him to harass the Japanese army and prevent them from approaching the wall crack area on the south side!

So Tang Junping evacuated here directly and continued to retreat to Yingge Ridge in the south! The terrain there is not bad, it is high and commanding, plus Tang Junping also brought a heavy machine gun, so he can continue to harass the enemy!

The large Japanese army soon approached Jingpo Lake Town. Upon hearing that the scout troops had been ambushed here, Saito Yahei was extremely excited. The purpose of his attack was to force the King of Hell to fight a decisive battle with him. What he feared most was not being able to find any trace of his opponent.

After approaching Jingbo Lake,

The Japanese army began to set up artillery. They carried a total of four infantry guns along the way.

After spending half an hour setting up the cannon, they began to bombard the town fiercely!

When the shelling happened, the Japanese army also started to move. About 500 Japanese soldiers surrounded them from the east!

When the Japanese troops were surrounding the town, two soldiers who stayed behind in a fortification on the east side of the town operated a crooked-handled rifle and fired at the surrounding Japanese troops.

This is a bomb crater, which exploded this morning. Now there are several sandbags piled around it to build a simple fortification!

The two soldiers who stayed behind, one named Zhang Qiang and the other named Chen Qianping, were a pair of machine gunners!

Through the holes in the sandbags, they suddenly spotted the Japanese troops moving to outflank them, so they simply took the initiative.

Unfortunately, after only one round of firing, the machine gun jammed twice with thirty rounds of ammunition, and the sky was filled with dust raised by the shells.

The fatal flaw of the Type 99 light machine gun was exposed, but it was their strafing that caused the outflanking Japanese troops to retreat after several casualties!

After all, the effective range of the Type 600 rifle is 1500 meters, the standard range is meters, and the shooting range around the town is extremely wide!

As soon as the shelling stopped, Zhang Qiang and Chen Qianping decided to just run away! Anyway, the captain didn't ask them to guard the town for long, and there was no point in staying there with so many devils coming!

Gu Yanzang led his troops and walked into the town cautiously. After experiencing the heavy bombing in the morning and the shelling in the afternoon, there was not a single intact house left in the town!

These Japanese soldiers still conducted a careful and detailed search, and only sent a safe signal to the rear after confirming that there was no one there!

At this time, it was already evening and the sky was gradually getting dark!

On the east side, along the mountain road, led by Chief of Staff Lieutenant Colonel Koizumi, there are also two infantry battalions, carrying four infantry guns!

But this journey was rather miserable. Soon after setting out, they were harassed by Wang Hao's troops from the 1st Squad hidden in the mountains and forests.

The soldiers hid in the woods, often firing a volley of shots and then disappearing.

As a result, even if the Japanese soldiers entered the woods, they would still gain nothing after working for a long time.

When Lieutenant Colonel Koizumi led his troops to Yongfeng Village, Wang Hao had already set a trap and was waiting for their arrival.

From the outside, the village looked quiet and peaceful, with no signs of human presence at all.

When the Japanese scouts cautiously entered the village, they found that the doors of each house were closed, as if they did not welcome these uninvited guests from afar.

Two Japanese soldiers gently pushed open one of the doors. Just as they walked into the house, suddenly, a loud noise was heard - the booby trap grenade placed at the door exploded.

The sudden explosion caught the two men off guard. One Japanese soldier was killed on the spot, and the other fell to the ground seriously injured.

There are more than 60 houses in Yongfeng Village, many of which are set with booby traps, and some are even sprinkled with gasoline.

There were series of explosions in the village, followed by a raging fire.

Seeing that there was no one in the village, the irritable Koizumi became even angrier and simply ordered artillery fire to cover the village and completely destroy it!

His orders spurred the artillerymen into action, shells rained down on the village, explosions resounded through the sky, and flames shot up into the sky.

Yin Xinjun saw all this and he knew that his plan was half successful.

One of his goals was to clear the countryside and leave no resources or hiding places for the enemy.

Now, the village is in ruins and the Japanese army can't gain any advantage here.

As for the Japanese army, they also had their own considerations. Every time they attacked, they wanted to weaken the morale of the anti-Japanese forces by destroying the village and demonstrate their own strong strength.

Along the eastern side of the forest, there are many scattered wooden houses, which are temporarily built to accommodate more soldiers.

When the Japanese soldiers encountered those scattered wooden houses, they set them on fire without hesitation, and their hearts were filled with satisfaction as they watched the raging fires burn.

However, they did not know that these actions were exactly in line with Yin Xinjun's plan.

As the sky was about to get dark, the Japanese still gained nothing except piles of ruins and garbage.

The Japanese soldiers of the Third Company of the Fourth Battalion finally came across a wooden house at the edge of the forest.

To be on the safe side, Captain Masaji Tanabe, the leader of the third squadron, asked a few puppet soldiers to go up and open the door.

There were several white-haired old men and women lying on the beds inside!

Tanabe Masashi asked loudly,

"Where have your soldiers gone?"

A puppet soldier who knew a little Japanese hurriedly and diligently translated.

The old men and women were evacuated from Jingbo Lake Town, and of course they knew nothing about the army.

Tanabe Masaji asked several times but got no answer, which made him furious.

"Baga, he's dead!"

Several Japanese soldiers rushed over and dragged the old man out of the house, and stripped off his clothes. One of the Japanese soldiers held a bayonet and with a flick of his wrist, he ripped open the old man's abdomen, and blood and intestines flowed all over the floor.

After entering the Jingpo Lake area, Saito Yahei implemented the Three Alls Policy!

As night fell, Japanese soldiers began to set up tents, one after another, densely packed together.

In the camp, Japanese soldiers also lit bonfires to keep warm.

Saito Yaheita felt a little uneasy. Yan Wang himself was missing, and Yan Wang's troops had only killed more than 100 people. The main force of the enemy obviously suffered no losses!

Yahei Saito was so eager to have a head-on battle with his opponent, even though the King of Hell had been hiding from him!

"These despicable guys who only know how to launch sneak attacks!" he cursed in his heart.

However, no matter what, we will be able to break through Jingpo Lake tomorrow. No matter where they hide, our goal this time is to destroy the base and kill all the soldiers and civilians here!
