Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

Chapter 570 50:20, the advantage is mine.

Captain Watanabe quickly ordered the convoy to stop, and then used a telescope to carefully observe the situation ahead.

At this time, the puppet army company commander also ran over and asked flatteringly: "Taijun Watanabe, did you find anything?"

"Lu Sang, look at the terrain here, it's very suitable for an ambush. I heard there are many guerrillas in this area. If I were them, I would definitely choose this place for an ambush."

"When I was in the field army, I experienced this situation too many times. There are many inconspicuous hills in China. If you don't pay attention, a large number of ambushes will appear. My leg was injured in a battle."

Then he continued to brag about his previous attacks, which made Captain Lu feel very annoyed. This guy Watanabe had said these things dozens of times, and they were all about the Japanese getting beaten. There was nothing good to brag about.

So he quickly interrupted and said, "Taijun, what should we do now?"

"It's actually very simple. Just use a light machine gun for fire reconnaissance. Most guerrillas have not undergone rigorous military training, so it's easy for them to be exposed."

After saying that, he ordered his men to move forward and shoot at suspicious locations. Sure enough, many of our militiamen heard the gunshots and mistakenly thought that their ambush site had been discovered. They got nervous and their guns went off accidentally.

Seeing this, others also opened fire. At once, a large number of bullets hit the open ground directly, causing almost zero damage to the enemy.

After hearing the gunshots, the militia captains of each village finally reacted and hurriedly shouted at everyone to cease firing, but it was too late.

Captain Watanabe saw this and boasted: "It's just as I expected. It seems there is an ambush. However, they are all Hanyang rifles and a small number of Type 38 rifles. It seems to be a guerrilla force."

"And judging from the sound of the gunfire, the number of people ambushing on the other side is no more than 200. This is a good opportunity for us to make a contribution."

"Pass on my order. Leave one platoon behind in the Imperial Army, and the rest of you rush to the top of the hill. Don't let any of the ambushers escape."

Hearing this order, Captain Lu was immediately startled and quickly suggested:

"Tai-kun Watanabe, we must be cautious and focus on transporting supplies. If we encounter an ambush by the main force of the Eighth Route Army, our small number of people will not be enough."

After hearing this, Captain Watanabe said confidently: "Lv Sang, you have never been to the battlefield, so you may not know much about the quality of the Eighth Route Army's soldiers and weapons."

"If the main force of the Eighth Route Army was on the other side, this level of firepower reconnaissance would not have exposed the enemy at all. And judging from the gunshots, there was no sound of Ma Sihuan rifles firing from the other side. There were only two light machine guns, and they were both Type 99 light machine guns."

"I can definitely tell that the enemy is a guerrilla force with low combat effectiveness. As long as we attack, we can easily win."

"If you are really scared, then lead your men to stay here and guard the supplies. You will not get this chance to make a contribution."

Faced with this request, Captain Lu was more than happy to accept it. He now did not seek to make any achievements but to avoid making any mistakes. He just wanted to live one day at a time and there was no need to take any risks.

Next, more than sixty Japanese soldiers rushed towards the guerrillas' position as if they were injected with chicken blood.

Seeing this, Mo Hu could only order everyone to shoot, but their shooting skills were really not good. After several rounds of shooting, they only killed four or five Japanese soldiers. At this time, Watanabe's team was already one hundred meters close to our position.

The Japanese relied on their marksmanship, charging and shooting at the same time. In just a short while, our ambush troops suffered more than a dozen casualties. This was the result of our complete advantage in terrain. If we were in the wild, this charge would have completely defeated our troops.

At this time, even if the Japanese were garrison troops, their combat skills were still very strong, far from being comparable to us militiamen who occasionally trained and could only shoot and throw bombs.

Some militiamen could not stand this cruel battlefield environment and could only squat in the trenches with their guns in their arms, trembling with fear. Some even shouted and tried to escape from the area.

Seeing this situation, in order to reduce casualties, Mo Hu had no choice but to order the militia captains to retreat with the wounded and leave the armed work team to provide cover.

When Watanabe's team saw this situation through the telescope, they immediately laughed. Judging from the situation on the battlefield, the opposite side was just a group of mobs and were not capable of withstanding a single blow.

And there are only more than 50 people left. They should belong to the cover force. They have a Type 20 light machine gun. Now they still have more than people. Watanabe's pride at this time can be fully described in one sentence: :, the advantage is mine.

Faced with this situation, the Japanese did not care about any tactics. The entire team charged forward, ready to rush to the position and gain military merit.

After the large Japanese army entered our ambush circle, the first thing to be fired was the directional mines. The explosion of ten directional mines produced a rain of steel balls that flew towards the Japanese at a certain angle. More than fifty Japanese soldiers had no time to react and most of them were knocked to the ground by a large number of steel balls.

A directional mine has about 700 steel balls. If there are ten of them, that would be 7,000 balls. There are only more than 50 Japanese soldiers, so each of them can get 100 balls.

Moreover, the power generated by the explosion of high-performance explosives is huge, which means that the initial velocity given to the steel balls is also very high. At the same time, the ten directional mines are distributed in certain directions, forming cross fire.

The remaining twenty or so Japanese soldiers at the back were so frightened when they saw that the ones in front had been shot into sieves that they quickly lay down. This triggered the bouncing mines buried on the ground. More than a dozen new bouncing mines flew directly into the air, and countless steel balls scattered to the ground, which immediately turned most of the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground into hedgehogs.

Only five or six Japanese soldiers at the rear were not affected, but they were so frightened by the scene that they ran back like crazy.

Seeing this scene, Mo Hu complained to himself, "The Japanese are so vulnerable. What a pity. It seems that we have buried too many directional mines and jumping mines. It's a bit of a waste."

"Oh, Xiao Bao, take a few people to chase the big guys back. Most of the Japanese have been killed, and the rest are probably scared out of their wits. Now it's our turn to clean up the battlefield."

"Also, when you bring people here later, you must avoid the minefield. I'm sure everyone has seen the power of the mine explosion just now. It would be a joke if it hits one of our own people."

"Xiao Hu, take a few people and follow the mine distribution map we drew earlier to dig out the unexploded mines. The rest of you, follow me to chase the Japanese."

Uncle Mo and his men actually didn't go far. If the Japanese caught up with them, they could use the terrain to disperse the enemy's large forces, and then find a way to destroy the enemy in the mountains.

However, after waiting for a long time, they found out that the armed work team had already used the minefield to kill all the enemies, and asked them to go back and clean up the battlefield.

Everyone was very happy to hear such good news. They won a great victory on their first battle on the battlefield. This would give them something to brag about to other villages in the future.

No matter how they perform on the battlefield, or whether they follow behind others to take advantage of others, the result is that they win, and this is the best result.

In such a great victory, it is enough to just participate, what else does one need?
