Xu Rui led the third battalion and was taken into the mountains by a man who called himself Simien. It turned out that Simien was a man from Fengwen Yamashita. The purpose was to lead Xu Rui into the Japanese ambush. Although Xu Rui saw through it, he At this time, the third battalion was surrounded by Japanese ambush.
"Captain, withdraw." Du Junjie was startled when he heard Simien's words.
Xu Rui said: "Withdraw? It's too late. We are surrounded by Japanese soldiers. If we make any move now, the Japanese soldiers' heavy weapons will definitely come down."
"Gao Chu!"
"arrive!"
"Immediately take a platoon quietly into the jungle and seize the commanding heights ahead."
"yes!"
Gao Chu led a platoon into the jungle quietly and continued to advance rapidly towards the commanding heights on the top of the mountain. On this side, Xu Rui led Simien with a gun. He deliberately made Simien walk very slowly. Keep delaying time so that Gao Chu can successfully attack the commanding heights on the mountain.
However, the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain quickly noticed some abnormalities in the actions of the third battalion, and the Japanese commander immediately ordered to open fire.
As soon as he heard the gunfire at the bottom of the mountain, Xu Rui immediately ordered the third battalion to immediately enter the jungle and launch a counterattack on the mountain. For a while, gunfire rang out and the battle was extremely fierce.
Because the Third Battalion found out in time, entered the jungle, and had extremely high military quality, although they were ambushed, they were not in trouble at all. And because it was dark and the field of vision was limited, the Japanese ambush around them were very vulnerable to the three battalions. The battalion's damage was limited. At this moment, Gao Chu and a platoon of soldiers suddenly appeared on the mountain top where the commanding heights were. A burst of grenade explosions and submachine gun fire drove the Japanese on the top of the mountain away.
Not to be outdone, the Japanese troops immediately sent a large force to launch a counterattack on the commanding heights. The Japanese troops fired very fiercely and used mortars and grenade launchers. Gao Chu's troops suffered heavy casualties and had to withdraw in the end.
The Japanese occupied the commanding heights and attacked even more frantically. From a distance, they could see muzzle flames from light and heavy machine guns flashing everywhere, like gorgeous demonic flowers.
"We must break out!" Xu Rui said.
"Captain, there are Japs on all sides now, in which direction should we break out?" Jin Daohan asked.
Xu Rui said: "Break through the encirclement toward the mountain pass and join the first and second battalions."
"But commander, the Japanese firepower from the Yamaguchi direction is very fierce." Du Junjie said.
Xu Rui said: "The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road. Immediately concentrate all the rapid-fire firepower and shoot in the direction of the mountain pass to suppress the Japanese firepower in the direction of the mountain pass. We will take the opportunity to rush out!"
"yes!"
At that moment, dozens of light and heavy machine guns from the entire battalion were placed at the forefront, coupled with hundreds of rapid-fire submachine guns, the third battalion launched a fierce attack in the direction of the mountain pass.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
With the intensive gunfire, the Japs in the direction of Yamaguchi felt tremendous pressure. After more than ten minutes of fighting, the Japs were finally unable to stop the attack of the third battalion, and were torn open by the third battalion. Then, the third battalion rushed through the opening. He got out and retreated to the outside of the mountain.
Xu Rui immediately ordered the third battalion to send one company to ambush at the mountain pass to fight off the Japanese and the other to counter-ambush, while he led the other two companies to retreat to a relatively safe high ground outside the mountain pass.
As Xu Rui expected, within a short time, hundreds of Japanese soldiers chased them out of the mountain pass. They were ambushed and more than a hundred people were knocked down in one fell swoop. Only then did they retreat back to the mountain pass in embarrassment.
The Third Battalion experienced a fierce battle. After checking, more than 30 people were killed and more than 60 people were injured in this battle. Xu Rui gritted his teeth in anger and said: "I have been fighting Yan all day long, but today I was defeated by Yan." I pecked my eyes, I must avenge this."
While he was talking, several soldiers from a distance came over escorting two Filipinos.
"Commander, we caught two Filipino spies." A soldier said.
Xu Rui looked at the two people and asked, "Who are you?"
"We are Filipino guerrillas. We were contacted by the radio and came to pick you up." A dark-skinned young man said.
"Captain, they must be spies of the Japanese. Pull them out and kill them directly." Jin Daohan said.
Xu Rui asked: "How many people are here?"
The young man said: "There are a dozen of us here. The captain sent us to meet with you first."
"Let your captain come to see me." Xu Rui said.
"good."
The young man whistled in the distance, and then, a dark-skinned and delicate girl came over from a distance with more than a dozen people. When Xu Rui got closer, Xu Rui took a closer look. The girl in the lead looked quite... Beautiful, I just heard the girl say: "Hello, my name is Arroyo, and I am the captain of the guerrillas."
"Hey, there's another imposter. Can you try some new tricks?" Du Junjie snorted, took out his pistol from his waist, and pointed it at Arroyo.
"Adu, don't shoot!"
In the distance, a voice sounded. Everyone looked to where the voice came from, but it was Leng Tiefeng who led Langya and the first battalion, second battalion, and artillery battalion to arrive.
Leng Tiefeng came closer and said to Xu Rui: "Captain, she is really Arroyo."
After listening to Leng Tiefeng's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Jin Daohan said: "Captain Leng, we were tricked by the Japanese just now. We were tricked into the mountain pass by a few people pretending to be Filipino guerrillas. We were tricked by the Japanese." ambush."
When Arroyo heard this, he gritted his silver teeth and said, "The damn Japanese devils are pretending to be us. We must settle this debt with them."
Xu Rui said: "Captain Arroyo, tell us about the situation in class, and then we will study the next step."
"Okay." Arroyo immediately told Bamban's situation.
"Bamban is a small town with a population of more than 10,000 people. It is now occupied by the Japanese. Yamashita Fengwen's headquarters is located in the center of Bamban City. The Bamban City Government is surrounded by tight security. There are about three to four thousand people in the city. The Japanese devils are not very powerful in combat. There are only more than a thousand people who are direct troops of Yamashita Fengfumi. These people are very effective in fighting. The rest of the troops are scattered personnel from various units and were gathered together by Yamashita Fengfumi. Yamashita Fengfumi I knew you were coming, so my most elite main force set up an ambush at the mountain pass. They have geographical advantages and it would be difficult to break through with a strong frontal attack."
"Is there a path that can bypass the mountain pass?" Xu Rui asked.
"There is a small road that can directly enter Banban, but it is very difficult to walk, and heavy weapons will definitely not be able to get through." Arroyo said.
Xu Rui said: "What if it is a small team of dozens of people carrying light weapons?"
"That should pass," Arroyo said.
At that moment, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng made a plan. Langya entered Banban and then beheaded him. Xu Rui knew that as long as he killed Yamashita Fengwen, the three or four thousand men under him would become a ragtag group and would inevitably scatter. If they want to escape, then they can be dealt with by the Philippine guerrillas.
Leng Tiefeng asked Arroyo again about the conditions of the streets in the city, and then said: "Arroyo, I need you to lead the way this time."
Arroyo said: "No problem, this is the last battle to liberate the Philippines. The Americans have promised us that as long as we defeat the Japanese, we will give the Philippines independence and freedom. We Filipinos are now fighting for our own country." "
The Philippines has been a colony of foreign powers for a long time. Now that there is a chance to become independent, these Filipinos are naturally overjoyed. Therefore, they are fully assisting the Allied forces in fighting in the hope of early independence and regaining their own land.
At the moment, Leng Tiefeng designed an action plan. Leng Tiefeng personally led the Langya backbone from the alley into Banban. Their task was to kill Yamashita Fengwen. As long as Yamashita Fengwen died, these thousands of Japanese Japs would inevitably collapse completely.
Banban, in a two-story building, Yamashita Fengwen was sitting on a chair, with no expression on his face, but he looked much more haggard than before.
After several battles in the Philippines, especially the Battle of Manila, the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops on the Philippine Islands were basically dispersed. Yamashita Fengfumi led his guards to retreat all the way from near Manila, collecting broken troops along the way. , and finally another three or four thousand people gathered.
Yamashita Fengwen knew that these three to four thousand people were now defeated, and the only ones with real combat effectiveness were the more than a thousand people in his own guard. He didn't know how long they could hold on in this squadron.
"Bang bang!"
There was a knock on the door outside the house.
"Come in." Yamashita Fengwen said.
The door was opened and Major Kawaguchi walked in.
"Marshal..."
"Failed?" Yamashita Fengwen asked.
"The enemy was caught in our ambush, but their firepower was too strong and they rushed out." Major Kawaguchi said.
"Yes, I understand." Yamashita Fengwen nodded and waved his hand. Kawaguchi exited Yamashita Fengwen's office and gently closed the door.
Yamashita Fengwen sighed, how glorious he was when he was in Northeast China. Not only did he occupy the entire Far East of the Soviet Union, but he also eliminated Xu Rui's Changbai Mountain base. He was promoted to marshal and honored his ancestors. Unfortunately, he is now At the end of the road, like a bereft dog, the hundreds of thousands of Philippine troops have collapsed. What big disturbance can these three or four thousand defeated soldiers under his own make
Yamashita Tomofumi is a smart man. He has keenly realized that Japan is doomed and the Philippines is doomed. Although the ambush at the mountain pass temporarily repulsed the Allied troops, it will not take long for the Allied forces to arrive. , by then, Ban Ban will be under tremendous pressure. Can the three or four thousand defeated soldiers under his command be able to stop the Allied attack
Perhaps, the best outcome is to go into the jungle and fight guerrillas until they are all wiped out by the Allied forces.
Yamashita Fengfumi began to curse Major General Iwabuchi Sanchi again in his heart. If he hadn't defied orders and defended Manila, he would have surrendered long ago. Why suffer here...
