Chapter 21 Infantry Tactics
When the Japanese second lieutenant personally led an infantry squad to the hill at the nine o'clock direction, the two infantry squadrons on the left and right wings had already encircled them.
However, it was of no use.
Because the few Eighth Route Army soldiers who had been hiding on the top of the hill and shooting had already run to another hill a hundred meters away.
If it had been any other time, the Japs would have given up for sure, but this time they did not give up, because Maeda Tsuyoshi had given their team a death order to capture the Eighth Route Army!
Without even taking a breath, the Japanese second lieutenant waved his hand and said, "Keep chasing!"
The three Japanese infantry units immediately gathered together and chased after them with bayonets pointed.
Three machine gun teams and a grenade launcher team were also following behind.
Behind them are the puppet soldiers. These puppet soldiers are smart and will not run to the front to block the bullets.
The mountain road was difficult to travel on, and although those Eighth Route Army soldiers were not far ahead, they could not catch up with them.
Just as the Japanese second lieutenant was hesitating whether to send an infantry unit to take a detour to block the enemy in front, he suddenly felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
The Japanese second lieutenant lost consciousness instantly.
However, the other Japanese soldiers following the Japanese second lieutenant and Zhao Youcai saw it clearly.
Just as they were chasing forward, a bullet suddenly shot from the right and pierced the Japanese second lieutenant's head. The Japanese second lieutenant fell to the ground and died on the spot.
Two other Japanese soldiers were also killed.
Another group of Eighth Route Army soldiers attacked them from the side.
"Oh my god." Zhao Youcai screamed and fell to the ground.
Although the change happened hastily, the Japs still responded immediately.
"Three o'clock!" A Japanese sergeant immediately took over the command and shouted, "Machine gun team, suppress the fire! The first squad will flank from the left, and the second squad will go around to the right!"
"The third team follows me to the middle!"
The eternal infantry assault tactics were used again.
The three machine gun crews that had just
The grenade launcher squad just watched helplessly, as there was nothing for them to do.
The most miserable ones were the three infantry squads, who had to dive into the thorn bushes and rush towards the hilltop in the three o'clock direction. They could not stop even if their heads, faces and hands were cut and bleeding.
That’s it, but it’s not the most miserable thing.
The most miserable thing was that when they rushed to the top of the mountain with so much difficulty,
But they found that the few Eighth Route Army soldiers who had been hiding on the hilltop had already run away.
What’s even more infuriating is that these local guerrillas were on another hill over a hundred meters away, making all kinds of provocations towards them, including but not limited to taking out their genitals and urinating on them.
The kid who rushed to the top of the hill was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
But when they raised their rifles to fire,
The Eighth Route Army on the opposite side ran faster than rabbits.
The Japanese sergeant knew that they were in trouble this time.
This group of Eighth Route Army soldiers was obviously different from the ones they had encountered before. Not only were they good at shooting, hitting the target every time from a hundred meters away, but they were also able to skillfully use the infantry tactics of alternating cover.
This is a well-trained Eighth Route Army.
It will definitely not work to pursue blindly like before.
Because when chasing one of them, it is easy to be attacked by the other one.
The Japanese sergeant called another sergeant over to discuss the matter and decided to chase them separately.
Soon, the Japanese puppet army split into two groups. One group continued to chase forward, while the other turned around and went back to chase the original group of Eighth Route Army soldiers, yes, the group of Eighth Route Army soldiers who killed their squad leader.
The Japs thought to themselves, these local rioters are really bad.
There were only a few of them and they were divided into two groups.
Also play alternating screen and retreat.
…
Wang Ye and his men retreated to a hilltop.
After looking around, Wang Ye said, "Let's go here."
Wang Xikui asked curiously, "My lord, why did you choose this hill?"
Zhao Erwa and Huang Shun at the back also pricked up their ears like curious babies.
Wang Ye immediately taught on the spot: "Look at this field of view. There is a large open area in front. If the Japanese come out of the mountain pass in front, they will be completely exposed to our shooting range."
"Look behind you again." Pointing behind him, Wang Ye said, "There is a hill not far away."
"This way, when the Japanese chase us to this hill, we will have already passed that hill. This way, the hill can effectively block the Japanese's vision."
"We won't be exposed to the enemy's shooting range."
"This way we can escape our pursuers calmly."
"Look at the hill in front of us again." Wang Ye pointed to the hill in front and said, "There is an open area behind us. If we choose the hill in front as a blocking position, then when the Japanese catch up to the hill in front, we will just retreat to the open area and won't even have a place to hide. We will only become the Japanese's target. Remember?"
"Remember it!" Wang Xikui, Zhao Erwa and Huang Shun responded loudly.
Wang Xikui and others responded while thinking that it was so exciting to fight with the captain, because we were the only ones fighting the Japs while the Japs couldn't hit us.
As they were talking, a group of Japanese soldiers appeared from the mountain pass ahead.
Wang Ye said: "The Japs are coming, get ready to fight!"
Wang Xikui and the other two quickly entered the selected shooting positions.
Wang Ye also lay down under a big rock and set up his rifle.
Wang Xikui pointed his gun at the Japanese flag bearer with a plaster flag on his bayonet and said, "The Japanese flag bearer is mine, no one can snatch it from me."
“No one is competing with you.”
Wang Ye snorted and said, "All of them. Listen to my commands."
Wang Xikui, Zhao Erwa and Huang Shunbian pulled the bolts to push the bullets into the chamber, then lowered their sights and locked onto their targets through the rear sight and front sight.
The Japs quickly came within two hundred meters.
"Shoot!" Wang Ye gently pulled the trigger.
Wang Xikui and three others also pulled the trigger.
After the gunshots, four Japanese soldiers on the opposite side fell down immediately.
Wang Xikui, Huang Shun and Wang Ye all shot the Japanese in the head with one shot.
Zhao Erwa aimed at the torso of the Japanese soldier. It was obvious that his shooting skills were slightly inferior.
Wang Ye's mind moved, and he used his mind to throw the "Elite Sniper" scroll that he had previously saved at Zhao Erwa. Zhao Erwa shuddered, and a trace of confusion flashed across his eyes.
However, Wang Ye felt that Zhao Erwa's marksmanship would not improve rapidly any time soon.
Because he also used an elite shooting scroll on Wei Dayong, but this guy's marksmanship did not improve significantly and was still at the level of an ordinary veteran.
I don’t know why?
Giving him his own "Cold Soldier-level Physique" took effect instantly,
But the elite shots given to Wei Dayong were slow to take effect.
But it’s better this way, so that others won’t think of me as a monster.
Looking at the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side, they have now fallen to the ground.
At this time, due to the long march on mountain roads, the Japanese formation had become somewhat disjointed, and the machine gun team, grenade launcher team and puppet troops had been left behind.
So the Japanese had to wait for the machine gun team at the rear to come up before they dared to deploy their assault formation.
So there was no need for them to retreat in a hurry. They could take this opportunity to kill a few more Japanese devils.
Wang Ye sneered and gently pulled the bolt. A hot shell jumped out of the magazine. He pushed the bolt again and pushed another 6.5mm caliber plate rifle bullet into the chamber.
Then he raised his gun and locked onto a Japanese soldier lying in the grass.
"Die." Wang Ye cursed softly and gently pulled the trigger.
There was a loud click and the jujube wood buttstock against his right shoulder shook violently.
When I looked forward again, I saw that the Japanese soldier's head tilted and there was no movement.
Wang Xikui, Huang Shun and Zhao Erwa also fired a shot, but none of them hit the target.
At a distance of two hundred meters, hitting a fixed or uniformly moving upright target is not a difficult task for well-trained veterans. Hitting the head is quite difficult, but hitting a target lying prone in the grass is extremely difficult and the hit rate can be said to be negligible.
Wang Xikui then asked, "My lord, how did you practice your spear skills?"
"How did you train it?" Wang Ye said with a grin, "Feed it with bullets."
Zhao Erwa asked: "How many bullets do I have to shoot to be as good as you, the king?"
"It's hard to say, because people have different talents," Wang Ye said. "Some people can become sharpshooters after firing a few hundred rounds, but some people are still a mess even after firing tens of thousands of rounds."
Huang Shun asked again: "What about you, my king? How many bullets did you feed?"
"Are you talking about me?" Wang Ye said, "We always have tens of thousands of bullets."
Wang Ye had been a special forces soldier for many years in his previous life, and he must have fired tens of thousands of bullets.
"What? Tens of thousands of bullets?" Wang Xikui was envious after hearing this.
As they were talking, the Japanese machine gun team finally arrived and prepared to set up their machine guns for suppressive fire.
"Let's go!" Wang Ye jumped up without hesitation, and Wang Xikui and the other two followed suit.
They were originally hiding on the ridge, so they just retreated a few meters and hid behind the ridge.
The Japanese machine gun fire poured down soon after, knocking down the trees on the ridge, but not even a hair on Wang Ye and his men was hit.
