Chapter 639 Can’t admit defeat
"Damn it, there really are Japanese puppet troops coming!"
"Damn it! Get ready! Tell Jesse to aim all the 75mm cannons at one point. We must show the might of our British army this time!"
Hami melon is seriously full of murderous intent.
The signalman quickly contacted Jesse.
All the national troops have gone to the rear to deal with Laoshan Yonghui.
The only Nationalist troops left here were those on the anti-aircraft artillery positions, and there were not many.
The rest are British troops.
The national army has shown sufficient courage and fighting power, as well as brilliant results in the battle with Laobayama Yonghui.
Naturally, the British army was unwilling to fall behind and wanted to prove themselves in front of the National Army.
The same goes for Jesse.
But he didn't expect that Yuan Shuai's battle plan was so awesome.
Not all of them were sent to deal with the Japanese detachment.
Nor did they continue to retreat forward.
If they had not sent anyone to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese detachment and had continued to retreat forward, they would have been surrounded on three sides.
At that time, they can only retreat to the crocodile's territory.
And now, not only have they succeeded in their sneak attack, they are also ready for battle.
Although the mortars had been taken away, they still had infantry artillery.
The puppet troops and devils coming from the front and flanks were of course the helpers that translator Yao Liu had called for via telegram.
However, because the Japanese knew that there would be air bombings, they did not send a large number of troops.
There was a squadron of Japanese soldiers in the front and on the flank, and a battalion of puppet troops.
Their mission was to block the front and flanks to prevent the National Army and British Army from escaping to the front and flanks.
However, the two Japanese squadron leaders did not take the National Army and the British Army seriously at all.
After all, two-thirds of this force escaped from the POW camps.
The prisoners in the POW camp were all their defeated enemies.
These two Japanese squadron leaders also wanted to make merit and gain more military achievements to bring honor to their families.
Even after seeing the plane being shot down, he did not give up and continued to run forward.
When they heard the howitzer bombardment, they thought it was their people providing artillery fire at the enemy.
The two teams were constantly accelerating forward.
Unfortunately, the British army had already ambushed them in front of them.
There were about three hundred British troops, with more than one hundred in each direction.
There was also infantry artillery in the ranks.
There is also Jesse's 75 field gun in the rear.
"Damn, more than 500 people!"
“There are only a hundred of us here!”
"What are you afraid of? The Kuomintang army only has more than a hundred people, but they still took down the Japanese 105mm howitzer position. We can't admit defeat!"
"Yes, wait until they get closer before firing, we still have infantry artillery behind us!"
"We still have 75 field guns behind us!"
"Everything is hidden..."
Although all the British troops felt a little guilty, they did not want to be cowards when they thought that a national army of more than a hundred people dared to launch a surprise attack on a detachment.
When the Japanese puppet troops approached them about fifty meters away.
The company commander in charge shouted.
Everyone opened fire.
Light and heavy machine guns, submachine guns, rifles, grenade launchers, mortars at the back, and 75 field guns all opened fire at the Japanese and puppet troops.
For a moment, groups of Japanese devils and puppet soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
The Japanese puppet troops were caught off guard by this sudden attack.
"Damn it, there's an ambush, retreat, retreat!"
At this moment, the Japanese squadron leader regretted so much that he wanted to slap himself.
Originally, they thought that the prisoners of war had been defeated by them and their fighting capacity was not very good at all.
But damn.
The enemy’s weapons and equipment are too advanced.
There was a continuous barrage of bullets.
There was a continuous bombardment of artillery shells.
Many soldiers were killed by bullets or artillery shells.
"Hit these bastards!"
"Kill them, don't let them run away!"
"Infantry artillery, block their retreat!"
"Don't stop the heavy machine guns, keep bombing with the grenade launchers!"...
The British army was still somewhat guilty.
But once the battle started, they had a clear advantage.
For a moment, all British troops were extremely excited.
Yuan Shuai stood at his own anti-aircraft artillery position, sat on the gun, holding a cigarette and smoking leisurely.
The National Army soldiers around him were looking at the British troops killing the devils through binoculars, and they couldn't help but urge them on.
"Boss, why don't we fight too!"
"Anti-aircraft guns can fire horizontally, and we shot one down too!"
"Yes, let's fight too. We can't let them wipe out all the Japanese puppet troops!"
Everyone looked at Yuan Shuai anxiously, hoping that they could fire a magazine of shells and kill some Japanese devils.
Yuan Shuai snorted coldly.
"You prodigals, don't you know this is an anti-aircraft gun? Don't you know how valuable its shells are? Using this thing to fight the enemy's puppet infantry, isn't that a waste of resources? If you have nothing to do, just take a good rest and watch the fun! You, bring me the map!"
The men around him didn't dare to say anything, and some of them stretched their necks to watch the fun.
Some are taking the time to rest and sleep.
Some of them gathered around Yuan Shuai, watching him look at the map, wanting to learn more about combat experience.
Yuan Shuai pointed at the map and shouted loudly.
"How many troops are there on the left and right wings?"
"I guess each of them has a squadron or a battalion of puppet troops!"
"Damn it, why is there only so little? These pretty boys are getting a bargain!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Yuan Shuai in astonishment.
"What are you looking at? Our brothers fought to the death to kill so many Japanese puppet soldiers, but the British army only killed so few. They eat the same amount of food, or even more than us. Is this fair?"
"The boss is right!"
The brothers laughed happily.
Yuan Shuai continued to look down at the map.
"A squadron and a battalion of puppet troops! Then, there shouldn't be too many devils in front and on the flanks!"
"Boss, otherwise, wait for Captain Wang to bring the 105mm howitzer over, and then we can attack the county town directly!"
"Snapped!"
As soon as Xiao Sichuan finished speaking, Yuan Shuai patted him on the head.
"You are the only smart one, the Japanese are all fools! We have killed so many Japanese puppet soldiers here, but they don't know how to strengthen their defense. Have you forgotten how those British deserters died?"
Xiao Sichuan's face turned red with embarrassment. He touched his head which didn't seem to hurt that much from the beating and said awkwardly.
"Boss, you are wise! What should we do now?"
"What else can we do? We now have 10 105mm howitzers, more than 75 mm field guns, and many mortars and infantry guns! I am an artilleryman now! Artilleryman! Brothers, it will be more exciting to use artillery to fight guerrilla warfare!"
"Using artillery to fight guerrilla warfare?! Boss, are you having a fever? These 105mm howitzers and 75mm field guns are so heavy, how can we move them quickly?"
As Xiao Sichu spoke, he reached out and touched Yuan Shuai's forehead.
