Tachibana Yoshio has returned to the ancestral hall.
At this moment, Tachibana Yoshio was staring at the sand table in front of him.
The combat staff of the headquarters has used red flags to mark the relative positions of the infantry brigades, artillery corps and cavalry corps on the sand table. Of the six infantry brigades to which the Tachibana detachment belongs, except for two of the infantry brigades, the remaining four infantry brigades are not present. The brigade, artillery team, and cavalry team have all entered their designated positions.
Goro Ogasawara pointed at the sand table and said to Tachibana Yoshio: "Detachment leader, please see, the 2nd, 4th, and 6th Infantry Brigades have completed the siege of the entire Shichisei Lake area, and the 1st Infantry Brigade has penetrated deep into the area with the cooperation of the artillery team. Swamp, is launching a mopping up operation against the remnants of the temporary 79th Division, the cavalry... "
"Okay, no need to say more." Tachibana Yoshio stretched out his hand to interrupt Ogasawara Goro.
"Hai." Goro Ogasawara paused heavily, and then said, "Detachment leader, the only thing I'm worried about now is that the 1st Infantry Battalion will not be able to wipe out the remnants of the temporary 79th Division before dark. Once it gets dark, the temporary 70th Division will be destroyed." The remnants of the Ninth Division originally only had a few hundred people, and if they were to be broken into pieces again, I'm afraid there would be no guarantee that no fish would slip through the net."
However, Tachibana Yoshio said firmly: "Ogasawara-san, you are worrying too much. The temporary 79th Division will not last until dark."
"The temporary seventy-ninth division will not hold out until nightfall?" Ogasawara Goro was surprised, "Why is the detachment leader so sure?"
"Because the Imperial Army has the advantage of being the first mover." Tachibana Yoshio said proudly, "Writing is like a chess contest. The advantage of being first mover is huge. In chess fights, you can even out the advantage of being the first mover by sticking to the target. However, in a battlefield contest, But there is no such good thing as sticking to the eyes, so I dare to say that the Chinese army will not last until dark."
"What are the advantages of being first?" a staff member asked, "What are the specific advantages?"
"There are many details. The biggest advantage of being the first is to wait for work." Tachibana Yoshio said, "The imperial army has been waiting in Hai'an Town all night to recuperate for a long time, but the remnants of the temporary 79th Division have come all the way. , including yesterday’s march, they have not rested for two days and one night, and are already exhausted.”
(Dividing line)
In the swamp, the 2nd Company of the Independent Battalion was moving forward with difficulty.
"Pfft." Wang Changfu fell into the mire because his foot missed the mark.
Leng Tiefeng, who was walking next to him, quickly stretched out his hand to help Wang Changfu up, and asked with concern: "Ah Fu, are you okay?"
"It's okay, deputy camp leader, I'm okay, I can hold on." Wang Changfu shook his head, but large beads of sweat continued to seep out from his forehead and slid down his cheeks.
Leng Tiefeng looked around and found that others were no better than Wang Changfu.
There are more than 150 people in the 2nd company, and almost everyone has reached the end of their strength. Only Leng Tiefeng and Xu Rui can hold on. There is no way. Since yesterday morning, they have been without food for 36 hours. After a good rest, even the iron Vajra can't support it, let alone the flesh and blood body
Leng Tiefeng was in trouble when suddenly the sound of "Puff" and "Puff" footsteps sounded behind him.
Looking back, I saw Xu Rui chasing after him with his bare feet in the knee-deep swamp.
"Go, go, go, don't stop." Xu Rui moved freely, walking as fast as flying, and still maintained abundant physical fitness. Leng Tiefeng and the more than 100 remnant soldiers of the 2nd company couldn't help but look at them sideways, thinking that the camp was still empty. What a monster. After such a long period of forced march, he could still have such abundant physical energy.
Within a moment, Xu Rui was in front of Leng Tiefeng.
Seeing Leng Tiefeng standing still, Xu Rui waved and shouted: "Let's go, why are you standing there?"
"I can't walk anymore." Leng Tiefeng said angrily, "Do you think everyone is like you?"
When Xu Rui heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that all the remaining soldiers around him were sweating profusely and looked like dirt. Even a strong soldier like Leng Tiefeng was panting like an ox.
Xu Rui sighed in his heart, it looked like he might not be able to survive if he didn't rest.
Otherwise, the brothers will all die of exhaustion before the little Japs come to kill them.
At that moment, Xu Rui nodded and said, "Forget it, just rest where you are for five minutes."
Hearing Xu Rui say to rest on the spot for five minutes, the remaining soldiers of the 2nd company suddenly cheered.
Amidst the cheers of the remaining soldiers, Xu Rui pulled Leng Tiefeng aside and whispered: "Come back with me and harass the Japs, otherwise, the Japs will catch up with us in less than five minutes."
"Okay, I'll go back with you." Leng Tiefeng agreed without thinking.
At that moment, the two people began to pack their equipment. Leng Tiefeng took off the heavy backpack on his back first. Since he was going back to harass the Japanese, he certainly couldn't carry the backpack stupidly. Leng Tiefeng took off the backpack and then He took out several seized ammunition boxes from his backpack and added the bullets inside to the leather ammunition boxes on his body.
After thinking about it, Leng Tiefeng took out two more melon grenades from his backpack and handed one of them to Xu Rui.
Leng Tiefeng prepared these two melon grenades not to blow up the Japs, but to save them at the last moment to kill himself. As an elite who once studied at West Point Military Academy, Leng Tiefeng knew very well about jungle warfare. How scary it is, no matter how powerful you are, anything can happen in jungle warfare.
When you run out of bullets and someone is injured, this grenade is extremely precious. At least it can guarantee that you will not be captured by the Japanese, and at least it can save you from endless suffering after being captured. It may be difficult for Westerners to understand This point, but in the genes of Eastern culture, the belief that literati will remonstrate to the death and warriors to fight to the death has been integrated into the bone marrow.
Xu Rui didn't answer, but sneered and said, "You don't need to bring this thing, right?"
After a slight pause, Xu Rui continued: "When the time comes, you will give me a lift. Likewise, if you fall into that situation, I will definitely give you a lift."
"Yes." Leng Tiefeng was relieved after hearing this and put the two grenades back into his backpack.
At that moment, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng used the 38 big cover and turned back along the original path.
However, the little devil arrived faster than Xu Rui expected. The two of them walked back less than 500 meters when Xu Rui heard footsteps in his ears.
Xu Rui's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "The little devil came so fast."
Leng Tiefeng said coldly: "This is not surprising, who let the little devil take the advantage?"
Having the upper hand brings a lot of benefits, and just being able to sit back and wait for work is an incomparable huge advantage.
Xu Rui turned around to look and found two particularly tall trees nearby, so he turned around and gestured to Leng Tiefeng. Leng Tiefeng understood, and the two of them slung the 38-meter cap on their shoulders, and then used their hands and feet to He quickly climbed up the big tree until he reached the top of the tree, which was only as thick as his arm. He could hardly bear the weight of the two of them, so he sat down on the branch.
Xu Rui raised his binoculars and looked forward, and saw a group of Japanese soldiers passing through a swamp in front of him. Because there were dense forests on both sides of the swamp, he could not see clearly the front and rear groups of the Japanese soldiers, but the light was exposed on the surface of the swamp. The Japanese have almost a reinforcement team of 70 or 80 people.
Xu Rui closed his eyes and felt it. The wind speed was about two meters per second.
Turning around again, Leng Tiefeng had already measured the approximate distance between the two sides using the thumb ranging method, which was 800 meters.
Xu Rui used tactical sign language to convey the wind speed to Leng Tiefeng, and then the two of them turned up the rear sights at the same time, raised their guns, and took aim. From a distance of 800 meters, looking forward from the rear sight, they saw a man passing through the swamp. The Japs were like black dots. Not to mention their heads, even their human bodies looked very small, so Xu Rui didn't dare to overestimate them.
Xu Rui aimed at a Japs flag-bearer in the queue. He first set aside a ballistic offset based on the wind speed, and then set an advance amount based on the Japs' flag-bearer's forward speed. Then Xu Rui's right thumb gently touched the trigger. , and then gently pressed down, inadvertently, the 38-inch cover on Xu Rui's right shoulder shook violently.
An explosion like exploding beans poured into Xu Rui's ears in an instant.
At the same time, a 6.5mm-caliber pointed copper-core bullet whizzed away at high speed. A second later, in the swamp ahead, the Japanese flag-bearer with a plaster flag on his rifle bayonet fell with a pop. Almost at the same time, another Japs sergeant not far from the Japs flag-bearer also fell.
The blow came extremely suddenly, but the little devil's reaction was extremely fast.
Almost as soon as the Japanese army sergeant and the Japanese flag bearer fell, the Japanese soldiers on the left and behind quickly dispersed, and their tactical movements were extremely skillful. There were even a few fierce Japanese soldiers who squatted down directly in the swamp and raised their 38-meter caps. Pointing ahead, they began to search for the location of Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng. Soon, they locked on the two big trees where Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng were hiding, because the crowns of these two big trees were significantly higher than those nearby. trees.
After finding the target, a dozen Japanese soldiers squatting on the spot opened fire.
Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng were unmoved. Compared with Taiwanese or Korean devils, the Japanese were much higher in terms of physical fitness, tactical literacy, or cultural level. But even the well-trained Japanese A Jaap is considered excellent if he can hit a target six hundred meters away.
At a distance of 800 meters, only a handful can guarantee a hit rate.
Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng squatted steadily on the branch of a tree. They calmly pulled the bolt and loaded the gun. They raised the gun, took aim, and then gently pressed the trigger. With each shot of the two men, the swamp ahead Every Japanese who crouched down and fired was bound to fall down. Within a moment, all the dozen or so Japanese were down.
However, at this time, four Japanese soldiers emerged from the forest carrying a Type 92 heavy machine gun.
"Fuck!" Xu Rui immediately cursed, and an onion fell backwards from the treetop.
The distance of 800 meters is beyond the limited range of the crooked light machine gun. Of course, the 38 cover can also be hit, but few Japanese soldiers can guarantee the hit rate, but the Type 92 heavy machine gun is different. The heavy machine gun not only has a long range, but also has extremely stable ballistics and a small dispersion area. It can suppress fire from a thousand meters away.
Leng Tiefeng's reaction was not much slower than Xu Rui's. Almost as soon as the two of them fell down from the treetops, the screams of bullets flying through the air filled their ears. After landing, they looked up and saw that they had just hid. The tops of two big trees have been smashed to pieces by intensive bullets, and tree debris and leaves are flying all over the sky.
