Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry

#113 - Fight to the death!

Liu Fuhai cursed inwardly, but didn't dare to show it on his face.

These Japanese devils were nothing like the ones he messed around with in the city. On the battlefield, a moment of carelessness could lead to these damned Japanese soldiers flying into a rage and shooting you dead for nothing!

No one could argue with battlefield discipline.

"Ma Laowu, Li Laosan, you sons of bitches, hurry up and get the troops together for me! Otherwise, before the Taijun takes action, I'll shoot you myself!" Liu Fuhai waved the twenty-shot pistol in his hand menacingly, shouting at the two surviving puppet army platoon leaders.

Helpless, Liu Fuhai had to use his gun to force the forty-odd surviving traitors to regroup.

A dozen minutes later, the puppet soldiers, scattered by a wave of grenades, completed their regrouping.

"Company Commander, the local Eighth Route Army on the mountain are fierce. So many brothers were killed at once. If these dozens of brothers die in battle again, we'll have no way out," Ma Laowu whispered, sidling up to Liu Fuhai.

These puppet soldiers were loyal to whoever fed them, but you had to have men and guns for the Japanese devils to give you a bite to eat. If Liu Fuhai lost his entire company, and couldn't quickly gather enough men and guns, his command would be abolished.

The Japanese devils didn't support idlers. Without men under him, Liu Fuhai and Ma Laowu, even if they survived, would have to start over as ordinary soldiers in another puppet army.

"You're so damn smart. Didn't you see that dog-faced Fujino looking gloomy today? The Japanese devils' machine guns are behind us. If we don't charge down, they'll start shooting at us!" Liu Fuhai said angrily. Ma Laowu looked back and saw that it was indeed the case. His puppet army company was completely caught between the Japanese devils and the Eighth Route Army.

Damn it, he was getting beaten from both sides! Who the hell did he offend? This was forcing people to their deaths.

"Tell the smart brothers to lie on the ground and crawl upwards!" Liu Fuhai's triangular eyes twitched. "Use the obstacles on the hillside to block their view and dodge bullets, and advance slowly. The Japanese devils won't be able to stand it and will follow us. Once we're mixed together, we might have a chance to survive."

Although Liu Fuhai was greedy and afraid of death, he hadn't completely lost his mind. He observed that there weren't many soldiers from the Eighth Route Army on the hilltop.

Moreover, they didn't have heavy weapons, not even a machine gun, which meant they were truly a local Eighth Route Army guerrilla force.

If they slowly wore them down, letting the Japanese devils' grenade launchers and machine guns do more work, they might be able to exhaust the local Eighth Route Army on the hilltop.

So, this time, the puppet soldiers learned their lesson and didn't swarm upwards. After being given instructions by the two platoon leaders, Ma Laowu and Li Laosan, they scattered and crawled on the ground, wriggling towards the hilltop like maggots.

They weren't in a hurry to die, they would do whatever was safest. They didn't care about wasting time during the attack, who the hell really wanted to risk their lives for the Japanese devils?

As a result, Yao Zhihai and the others were in trouble.

They had to deal with the Japanese devils' machine gun fire while waiting for the small gap when the Japanese devils reloaded, when they dared to stick their heads out to counterattack.

But the Work Team only had pistols and rifles. After the traitors lay on the ground, their targets became much smaller, and most of the Work Team members were novices. If people stood up a hundred meters away, they might have a seventy or eighty percent chance of hitting the body.

But hitting a headshot while lying on the ground, everyone really didn't have that much strength yet. Only Yao Zhihai and the other three old comrades from the First Company could still hit two or three out of ten shots.

So, while the Work Team was being attacked by machine guns and grenade launchers, the traitorous puppet soldiers kept approaching, putting the entire Work Team in a position of being overwhelmed.

The traitors quietly crawled up quite a bit, and were quickly approaching the front of the trench again, fifty meters away.

"Kill! First Squad, charge!" Taro Fujino saw the opportunity and unhesitatingly ordered his First Squad to start charging behind the puppet soldiers.

"Machine gun fire suppression, don't stop! Divide into two groups to form alternating fire!" Taro Fujino saw that the opposite side didn't have the firepower to suppress the machine guns, so he decisively reduced the density of fire and divided the remaining 6 machine guns into two groups to form continuous fire suppression.

Sure enough, Yao Zhihai and the others were now in trouble.

"Comrades, prepare grenades, let the puppet soldiers get within twenty meters, then greet them with grenades." Yao Zhihai silently counted the rhythm of the Japanese devils' machine gun fire, and took advantage of the brief gap after the enemy's firepower swept over their heads to stick his head out and observe, getting a clear understanding of the enemy's attack.

But now the grenades couldn't reach, and there wasn't enough time to stick their heads out and aim to shoot, so they could only wait for the traitorous puppet soldiers to get closer before attacking.

The Work Team members lowered their heads one by one, gradually becoming familiar with the gunfire on the battlefield, and becoming less panicked than they were at the beginning.

Yao Zhihai and the other veteran soldiers continued to seize the opportunity to aim at the traitorous puppet soldiers for headshots, but unfortunately, the Japanese devils had changed their strategy, and there weren't many opportunities to stick their heads out, allowing the puppet soldiers and Japanese devils to slowly rush up.

Fifty meters!

Forty meters!

Soon, the Japanese devils of the First Squad, crouching, caught up with the puppet soldiers crawling on the ground.

In this way, the Japanese devils had 3 more machine guns nearby for fire suppression, making it even harder for Yao Zhihai and the others to stick their heads out!

Thirty meters!

The Japanese devils' grenade launcher soldiers fired more than a dozen grenades, causing the Work Team to suffer seven or eight casualties.

The Work Team members gritted their teeth one by one, their eyes red, squatting in the trenches, tightly holding grenades in their hands, waiting for orders.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Taro Fujino seized the opportunity and ordered a detachment of Japanese devils to directly cross the war zone and rush towards Dabeigou Village!

Terrible! Yao Zhihai looked at this situation, and his heartbeat soared to the extreme!

The Japanese devils were dividing their forces to attack the defenseless village!

Thinking of this, Yao Zhihai couldn't stay any longer.

He risked sticking his head out to observe, "Shangwu, try throwing a grenade with force!"

Zhou Shangwu was the strongest in the Work Team, and he could usually throw it more than 50 meters away, but in the harsh environment of the trenches, it was difficult to exert force. Yao Zhihai didn't know if he could throw it 30 meters.

Bullets were flying everywhere, Zhou Shangwu had no choice but to bend over and turn sideways in the trench, swinging his right hand and throwing it diagonally into the sky, directly towards the charging Japanese and puppet soldiers on the hillside.

Boom! The grenade exploded with a bang. Yao Zhihai risked sticking out half of his head. The grenade landed a few meters in front of the charging Japanese and puppet soldiers, but the new Yangcun-made grenade, made of gray cast iron + high explosive, had enough fragments, and two Japanese devils who were crouching and charging were knocked down on the position, wailing!

"Shangwu, change your position, take a few steps forward, and continue throwing grenades! Just use the same force!" Seeing that it was effective, Yao Zhihai asked someone to collect a few grenades and give them to Zhou Shangwu.

Finally, they weren't just being beaten one-sidedly!
