Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

Gu Changfeng then ordered people to prepare a large number of grenades. The Japanese had left a lot of them, and with the ones they brought with them, there would probably still be some left after the battle.

Just as I was thinking about what else I had missed, Zhou Qianli ran over and asked, "Changfeng, what are you doing?"

Gu Changfeng briefly explained, then said: "The Japs are coming in full force, and they probably have heavy artillery, so be careful."

Zhou Qianli nodded and said, "Okay, then be careful."

To hesitate on the battlefield is to seek death, and he knew Gu Changfeng, so he didn't say much.

Xiaowu quickly ran over with the firepower squad. With the addition of the prisoners, they had more than a dozen more people, and now there were nearly thirty people in total.

"Alright, speed is of the essence. Captain Zhao, take the ammunition and set off."

At Gu Changfeng's command, some of them carried ammunition, some held Type 38 rifles, and then ran towards the side of the mountain.

Outside the intersection, Taro Inoue was defeated!

Just when he ordered his soldiers to charge, he found that they could not get through at all.

Their shooting range was much longer than his, and seven or eight of his soldiers were killed in one charge.

The cause of death was either the head exploding or the body being separated, which made the subordinates dare not charge at all.

The 70mm infantry gun could hit the enemy, but the enemy hid in the bunker and could not be hurt at all.

This is what is meant by easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In fact, if it weren't for Liu Dazhuang's sniper, it would have been difficult to break in last night.

As long as the Japanese heavy machine guns are there, charging will mean sending the soldiers to their deaths.

"Damn it! Is there any road leading in nearby?" Inoue Taro roared angrily.

"Your Excellency, this place is surrounded by mountains on three sides, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. That was the reason we chose this place as a prisoner-of-war camp."

The operations staff officer Masataka Numata said respectfully.

Inoue Taro was speechless for a moment. The place he chose was correct, but the problem was that it had now been occupied by the enemy.

"Your Excellency, Captain, I have a suggestion that may be effective."

Inoue Taro looked at the operations staff officer, signaling him to speak directly.

Numata Masataka rectified his words and said directly, "To be disrespectful, your brother may have already pledged allegiance to the Emperor."

These words deeply hurt Inoue Taro's heart. Although his subordinate's words were a bit hurtful, they were indeed the truth. He was not a fool to have reached his current position.

Masataka Numata paused for a few seconds, and seeing that Inoue Taro was not angry, he continued.

"Now that the facts have been established, what we need to do now is to eliminate the Chinese inside and avenge your brother."

"But a forced attack isn't a good option. The Chinese have long-range snipers and have captured Imperial weaponry."

"Perhaps we can just surround them and then mobilize the Shimokawa Brigade. If we just surround this place, the Chinese will surely fall without a fight."

After hearing this, Inoue Taro fell into deep thought.

After a long pause, he inquired, "How are the food reserves here?"

"Only enough for three or four days." Numata Masataka knew his boss very well, so he was very concerned about his brother.

"Numata-kun, you did well, but it's not enough."

"If the Chinese use the ropes to get down the mountain and escape into the woods, we'll become a joke just standing there."

Inoue Taro generally agreed, but he had a more radical idea, which was to block all the escape routes!

Numata Masataka saluted respectfully and said, "Your Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief is wise. I will make arrangements immediately."

.........

"Why are the Japanese soldiers quiet?" Zhou Qianli held a telescope and looked at the Japanese troops in the distance.

Liu Dazhuang laughed and said, "The Japs have left a lot of corpses on the ground, how dare they charge again!"

Zhou Qianli shook his head and said, "Something's not right. The devils seem to have some conspiracy. Everyone, be careful."

"Hey! Old Zhou, you're overthinking it!" Huang Zhengkui looked at it for a while and said.

"Look, the roads here are narrow. If the Japanese charge forward, they're courting death!"

"Two machine guns can block the intersection, not to mention the presence of Da Zhuang, a sharpshooter. The Japanese officers are not stupid."

Huang Zhengkui's analysis was very logical. After listening to it, Zhou Qianli thought for a while and said.

"That's true, but I always feel that the Japanese have bad intentions and must have other plans!"

As Zhou Qianli was speaking, the Japanese had already dispatched their troops and began to dive into the woods.

After watching for a while, he said seriously, "Old Huang, you see, what do the Japs mean by this? Are they planning to go around the woods and surround us?"

Huang Zhengkui looked at the densely packed Japanese soldiers through the telescope and nodded, "It seems so, but it's useless. Do the Japanese want to trap us to death?"

"Maybe there really is such a plan." Zhou Qianli murmured, and then he thought of Gu Changfeng and his group, and was suddenly shocked.

"Old Huang, hurry up and catch up with Changfeng. Tell him that the Japanese have entered the mountains."

He suddenly thought that Gu Changfeng was coming out of the mountains, while the Japanese were going into the mountains, so the probability of a collision was still very high.

If you are not prepared, it is easy to suffer a great loss.

Huang Zhengkui's expression instantly turned serious when he heard this, and he said directly: "I'll take people there right away."

In fact, the entire prisoner-of-war camp was like a hollowed-out mountain, and the entire mountain was not very big.

If the Japanese really sent heavy troops to surround them, Gu Changfeng and his men would have no way to escape.

Unfortunately, Gu Changfeng had no intention of escaping, but instead wanted to wipe out all the devils.

Before, more than 300 people dared to attack a large group. Now he is much more confident than before.

In fact, Gu Changfeng and his group had just set out not long ago. There were only a few ropes from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. It took a lot of time for seventy or eighty people to come down the mountain.

Huang Zhengkui became anxious when he saw that there was no one at the foot of the mountain. He pulled the rope and slid down the mountain, but he did not notice that blood was flowing out from the wound on his shoulder again.

A few minutes later, several people gathered at the foot of the mountain, and a soldier reminded them: "Captain, your wound has opened again."

Huang Zhengkui was in a hurry. He glanced at what he heard and waved his hand, saying, "It doesn't matter. Let's catch up with Changfeng first." Then he chased in the direction of Gu Changfeng.

Gu Changfeng was also anxious. The disappearance of the sound of gunfire at the entrance made him feel something was wrong.

Although he was confident that the Japanese could not break through the defense line, what if the Japanese had some secret weapons?

He didn't dare to gamble on this matter. He had long known how cruel the Japanese were and didn't dare to take any chances at all.

"Captain Zhao, Xiaowu, you guys lead the team and follow behind. I'm going to scout the way first. I feel like something's not right."

Zhao Ziqing heard what Gu Changfeng said and nodded, "No problem, you go first!"

Gu Changfeng glanced at everyone and ran straight out of the jungle.

Ten minutes later, more than a hundred Japanese soldiers suddenly appeared in the distance and walked towards him.

Gu Changfeng stopped and observed for a while, and immediately understood why the sound of gunfire disappeared.

It seems that these devils wanted to surround them, otherwise they would not have entered the mountains.

After figuring it out, Gu Changfeng immediately turned around and ran back.
