A magazine of 30,000 rounds, you call it Hanyang

While waiting for the battle, Zheng Kaixuan followed Li Yunlong's example and sent a few people to gather intelligence.

Not long after, squad leader Wang Fugui came back with two soldiers riding on their war horses.

There was an unconcealable panic on Wang Fugui's face.

"What's wrong, Fugui? What did you find out?" Zheng Kaixuan asked hurriedly.

"Commander, the previous intelligence was wrong. We just rode a few kilometers and climbed a hillside, and found that there was more than one infantry company heading towards Wangjiaping!"

"what?"

Wang Xikui immediately became nervous.

"How many devils are there?"

"There's about a squadron of Japanese soldiers in front, and there's another group of Japanese soldiers some distance behind them. It looks like there are many more of them than in the front."

Zheng Kaixuan and Wang Xikui looked at each other.

The same thought came to the minds of both of them.

It's bad! I've been tricked by those damn Japanese.

Wang Xikui took a deep breath.

"There's a Japanese squadron in front, and there are more people behind them. So there are most likely two infantry squadrons, or even a battalion headquarters."

"That's a whole fucking battalion of infantry! This is bad."

Several soldiers next to Zheng Kaixuan who heard the news suddenly became nervous.

Everyone knew that it was simply a fantasy and almost impossible for Zheng Kaixuan to bring more than a hundred new recruits to stop a Japanese infantry battalion of more than a thousand people.

The Japanese troops on Li Yunlong's side of Miaofengling may not be the main force, but the Japanese troops in this battalion can definitely be considered the main force.

You should know that the brigade and division headquarters deployed three reorganized regiments, the 771st, 772nd, and 769th Regiments, and their goal was to completely wipe out an infantry battalion of the Japanese and some puppet army security forces near Xiyang.

This situation is like the collapse of heaven for the Fourth Battalion!

"Kaixuan, you take the men and hold the position here. I'll ride after the regiment commander and have him dispatch another battalion of troops."

Wang Xikui was really anxious.

When he was in the Northwest, he was a platoon leader under Li Yunlong. At that time, Li Yunlong led the main force, the 171st Regiment, to cover the retreat of the main force.

Faced with an enemy that was several times larger than its own, the 171st Regiment did not retreat a single step. When its bullets ran out, it resorted to hand-to-hand combat.

Until they successfully covered the large force's transfer, almost all of the more than 171 soldiers of the st Regiment were killed in battle.

Only he, Li Yunlong, Shen Quan and a dozen others were left.

The new 171st Regiment was finally formed. Is the th Battalion going to repeat the same mistakes of the st Regiment today?

He didn't dare to think any further.

He couldn't bear to see his comrades falling one by one in front of him, a scene that was like hell on earth.

"That's too late."

Zheng Kaixuan pointed forward.

As far as the eye can see, at the end of the horizon, a Japanese army has slowly emerged.

"The devils are coming. Everyone, take cover!"

The Japs had already appeared hundreds of meters away.

Zheng Kaixuan took advantage of the last limited time before the battle to quickly ask a question.

"Wang Fugui, how far is the enemy's vanguard from the main force behind? You should estimate it carefully. This is very important and affects how we fight next!"

Wang Fugui thought about it seriously.

"It's about twenty minutes away if we march at a normal speed."

"it is good!"

After hearing Wang Fugui's answer, Zheng Kaixuan already had an idea in his mind.

"The news about the subsequent large-scale enemy troop movement is limited to just a few of us. From now on, no one else is allowed to mention it."

"Yes!"

Wang Xikui understood that Zheng Kaixuan was trying to stabilize the military spirit and morale.

If all the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion knew that they would be facing more than a thousand Japanese devils this time, some of the new recruits would probably not be able to hold on due to their low psychological quality, which would affect their combat effectiveness.

"Pass on my order! Keep the enemy within 100 meters before shooting! Automatic riflemen, don't save your bullets, shoot as hard as you can!"

"In this battle, we must show the power of the Fourth Battalion! We must show the momentum of the Fourth Battalion! We must let the devil know that our Fourth Battalion is not to be trifled with!"

"Within twenty minutes! The battle must be ended!"

"Yes!"

Wang Xikui looked at Zheng Kaixuan, who was not at all panicked and was arranging the battle plan in an orderly manner, and suddenly felt a sense of security in his heart.

He knew that this was leadership.

In the past, he could only find this feeling in Li Yunlong.

It's that feeling that as long as he is in charge, even if the sky falls, you will still believe that he can lead the team to victory.

In fact, Zheng Kaixuan's mood at this moment was also extremely complicated.

He was excited and expectant, but also felt extremely nervous.

In this battle, it is crucial to end it within twenty minutes.

If they can finish the battle within twenty minutes before the arrival of the large Japanese force behind them, they will obtain a large amount of weapons and ammunition, and by fighting to support the war, they can compete with the Japanese behind them!

From now on, the Fourth Battalion can rise up completely with just one battle!

If the Japanese vanguard cannot be defeated in a short period of time, the Fourth Battalion will be surrounded and encircled by the Japanese army.

If that really happens, the consequences will be unimaginable.

What made Zheng Kaixuan most nervous was whether the Japanese would discover their ambush position!

This is the crux of the matter.

The Japanese only need to send a few people on a few war horses to quickly search this wasteland of several kilometers in radius, and they will be exposed.

If the ambush fails, it will be difficult to fight.

Perhaps it was God's blessing, or perhaps the ambush position he and Li Yunlong chose was too unexpected.

Faced with the vast plain ahead that was visible at a glance, the Japanese infantry company did not send anyone to explore the way.

A large group of Japanese soldiers walked forward quickly with big strides.

All the soldiers from the four battalions held their breath and dared not make any noise.

Zheng Kaixuan lay in the trench, observing the distance to the Japanese through the gaps in the dry grass in front of him.

300 meters!

200 meters!

150 meters!

100 meters!

Even when they reached a hundred meters, Zheng Kaixuan still stared steadily ahead without giving any orders.

He felt it could be a little closer.

Because the closer the Japanese are, the safer the soldiers will be when they clean up the battlefield and seize the spoils.

90 meters!

Closer, closer.

Zheng Kaixuan could now see the devil's face clearly.

80 meters! 70 meters!

Zheng Kaixuan tried hard to stay calm.

It was not until the Japanese were only about 50 meters away from their trench that Zheng Kaixuan finally pressed the button of the Kaixuan grenade thrower in his hand.

"Brothers! Hit me!"
