Chapter 91 Changing Strategic Plans
After approaching, Yang Lin did not launch an attack rashly. He needed to observe the situation.
At the same time, it also buys time for the artillery company to establish a position.
At the same time, the second and third companies, led by company commanders Zhao Dejiu and Zhou Yun, had already encircled the left and right wings of the Japanese base.
Yang Lin’s purpose is simple and clear.
This time he wants to wipe out the Sakata Corps and not let any one escape!
"Battalion Commander, the situation is not very good!"
After observing the battle situation, the reconnaissance company commander Hou Meng's brows suddenly frowned.
Although the fire attack by this friendly force caught the Sakata Regiment off guard and caused them to suffer a lot.
But in the face of the absolute gap in strength, nothing can be changed at all.
"Um!"
Yang Lin also nodded solemnly.
Hou Meng asked again: "Battalion Commander, what should we do now? Should we join the battle immediately?"
This sudden appearance of armed force completely disrupted Yang Lin’s previous combat plan.
The fire continues to burn.
Even though the searchlight on the watchtower was broken, Yang Lin and his men could still see the entire battle situation with the help of the firelight.
"Old Zhao!"
"Battalion Commander!" Zhao Yuting ran over immediately after hearing the voice.
Yang Lin asked again: "Is your artillery company ready?"
Zhao Yuting straightened his body and said loudly: "Report to the battalion commander, the three Italian cannons, ten 90mm caliber small steel cannons, and 15 60mm caliber mortars are all in place!"
"very good!"
Yang Lin nodded with satisfaction: "Open fire immediately, destroy the enemy's machine gun firepower point, and provide firepower support to friendly forces!"
"yes!"
Zhao Yuting agreed loudly, then turned and ran away.
"Ma Gan, Niu Da Dan!"
"yes!"
The two of them agreed in unison.
"After the enemy's machine gun fire point is eliminated, you two will immediately lead a commando team to tear open a gap and bring this friendly force out!"
"Also, once the friendly forces come out to support us, the artillery company will fire as much as they can. Don't save your shells for me!"
Yang Lin quickly made strategic deployment. At this time, he no longer cared about saving ammunition and reducing costs.
…
"Brother Jun!"
"Brother Jun!"
At the east end of Wu Village, behind a broken wall shelter.
A young boy with a childish look on his face was trying to shake the blood-stained young man in his arms.
"I'm not dead yet!"
The man in the boy's arms struggled to sit up, breathing heavily.
"Brother Jun, I'm so glad you're okay!"
When the boy who called the police heard the answer, his face was full of joy, as if he had forgotten that he was still in the battlefield full of bullets and could die at any time.
"Tiaozi, how many brothers do we have left now?"
The boy's face immediately turned ugly again. He said with a look of grief and anger: "Brother Jun, there are only more than 100 of us left. Many brothers died under the enemy's machine gun fire."
When the boy mentioned his dead brothers, his whole face was covered with tears.
"These damn little devils!"
The young man struggled to stand up, but he was shot in the left calf and fell down again before he could take a step.
"Brother Jun, are you okay?" the young man looked anxious.
"I'm fine! These devils killed our people. We will never forgive them. Tell the brothers to keep fighting. Even if you die, you must take a few more devils with you!"
At this time, a middle-aged man holding a Mauser pistol in his hand said while firing, "Meeting leader, no! As the ancients said, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge!
Although we have sworn vengeance against the Japanese, there is no need to make unnecessary sacrifices. It is not worth it! "
Although the young man was angry, he did not completely lose his mind. After hearing the middle-aged man's reminder, he quickly came to his senses.
However, it is easy to break into the enemy camp, but it is not so easy to evacuate.
He looked around and saw that his brothers had almost been surrounded by the Japanese.
Countless Japanese soldiers were approaching them, squeezing their living space step by step.
Without waiting for the young man to speak, the middle-aged man said to the stunned boy, "Tie Zi, quickly lead the leader to break through. I will lead the brothers under my seat to cover your retreat!"
"Hurry, hurry up!"
“Thump, thump, thump…”
However, at this moment, a hail of machine gun bullets suddenly swept over, causing smoke and dust to rise on the ground.
Several of the bullets hit the middle-aged man. The bullets carried huge potential energy and spun through his body, leaving several shocking blood holes on his back.
“Hurry… hurry up…”
Before he could finish his words, the middle-aged man fell heavily to the ground, and the revolver in his hand fell to the side.
"Second Uncle! Second Uncle!!!"
The young man's eyes turned red with hatred and he pounced over fiercely.
"boom!"
“Boom boom boom!——”
Just then, several loud noises suddenly came from not far away.
The young man looked in the direction of the sound, but saw a ball of scarlet flame rising from the Japanese machine gun tower.
The Japanese machine gun that had been roaring continuously had now disappeared.
"This is……"
The young man looked at the scene in disbelief, his face filled with shock.
He knew that this was the result of artillery fire, but the two homemade cannons in his hands could not have such great power.
It is even more impossible to destroy all the Japanese machine gun towers at once.
“Thump, thump, thump! thump, thump, thump…”
Before the young man could react, a burst of rapid gunfire was heard outside the encirclement.
The gunshots were dense, but the young man could still tell that they were definitely not coming from Japanese equipment.
At the same time, there was an extremely loud roar: "Little devil, I'll fuck your ancestors!"
"Brothers, charge! Charge for me!"
The young man turned his head to look for the source of the sound, and within his sight, he saw a team armed with powerful submachine guns and light machine guns, like a torrent of steel.
Under the cover of artillery fire, they tore a hole in the Japanese encirclement.
The Japanese soldiers who were so majestic just now were beaten by this elite force with powerful firepower, suffering heavy casualties and retreating step by step...
"Brother Jun, they seem to be the Eighth Route Army, or they seem to be the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army..."
The policeman looked at the team rushing towards him. Some of the people were wearing the uniforms of the Shanxi Suiyuan Army, and some were wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army. He couldn't help but look confused.
Not only the cop, the young man also looked confused at this moment.
Because as far as he knew , although the Kuomintang and the Communist Party had reached a strategic alliance and united to fight against Japan, there was still a certain hostility between them.
It's good enough that they don't trip each other up, how could they possibly fight together?
However, although the young man was confused, he realized that this was an excellent opportunity to break out, and the troops in front of him were obviously coming to rescue them.
He had no time to think about why this army suddenly appeared here. He immediately raised his arms and shouted, "Brothers, our reinforcements are here. Break through and retreat!"
"Retreat quickly!"
