The War of Resistance

Chapter 1987 Night Battle

"Boom" the Japanese army fired flares again, this time hitting the top of the southern slope of Wujiapo.

As a result, the mountain road with a gentle slope appeared in detail, and the killed Japanese soldiers and puppet soldiers all appeared in the sight of the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain.

The Japanese captain hiding in the darkness looked at the corpses with the slow movement of the telescope. Only he knew how bad his face looked.

He is also a veteran. Of course, according to Chinese officers and soldiers, he is an old devil.

As a veteran, he had also seen mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He was just shocked that the Chinese army with such a small amount could cause such huge losses to the Imperial Japanese Army.

By now, he has investigated clearly. The Chinese army of thirty or forty people that they eliminated was actually just a Tubal army. There were only six Chinese veterans led by Shang Zhen!

Six veterans of the Chinese army and dozens of soldiers actually killed hundreds of soldiers in his squadron. He could guarantee that this was the only time in his military career!

So now he has paid more attention to Shang Zhen than ever before.

After all, the flare was not the sun. It moved bit by bit in the sky, and gradually reached the top of the mountain from the south slope.

At this moment, the Japanese captain put down his telescope and waved his hand, and about twenty Japanese soldiers walked up the mountain road with rifles in hand.

The flare has reached the top of the mountain, and the light will get darker as it gets closer to the bottom of the mountain.

But even so, the twenty or so Japanese troops were not in a hurry to attack. Instead, they moved forward slowly under the cover of rocks, with a large gap between them.

And when they reached the mountain road, they regarded the corpses on the mountain road as natural bunkers. If they quickly stepped over the corpses, there would be someone holding a gun to cover them.

And those Japanese soldiers didn't take the blood left by the dead that had begun to coagulate seriously, as if they were just fighting a battle in the mud and water. They were also veterans of the Japanese army.

"***" The Japanese captain gave the order again, and with his order, gunshots rang out like a storm.

This includes a heavy machine gun in the distance and six light machine guns not far from the foot of the mountain. And because combat machine guns fire tracer bullets to indicate targets in the dark, the blazing white light and the red line of bullet flight directly weave a A huge network of firepower.

As the Japanese firepower unfolded, the south side of the Wujiapo Mountain Peak, which originally looked very clear, had a hazy feeling.

Where did the fog come from on this sunny day? It was just the concentrated bullets of the Japanese army that turned the top of the mountain into dust!

But it wasn't over yet. Immediately after the gunfire, there was another "boom" and "boom" sound. This time, it was the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain who directly shot the grenade up with a grenade.

Amid the explosions of "Boom" and "Boom", the original "fog" became thicker, and a sandstorm broke out!

At this time, the twenty or so Japanese troops who attacked the mountain road accelerated their advance.

At the same time, at the foot of the mountain, dozens of Japanese soldiers rushed towards the mountain road with rifles. The Japanese army had great chances of taking over Wujiapo in one fell swoop!

The roads are connected. Perhaps the Japanese captain is not a master of Chinese studies. He does not know the saying "if you don't move easily, you will make a thunderous blow if you move", but this does not prevent him from understanding the same truth.

But if he thought he could catch all Shang Zhen or a few veterans on the mountain in this way, then he really underestimated Shang Zhen and the others.

The Japanese troops at the foot of the mountain had not yet seen where the counterattack firepower of the Chinese officers and soldiers on the mountain was, but fierce gunfire suddenly came from behind them!

The Japanese captain couldn't help but frown and turned around to look.

When their two squadrons came over, they met the Chinese army. Based on his judgment of the opponent's combat style, the Japanese army captain guessed that the opponent should have come to support Shang Zhen.

But the other side was also very cunning. They only fought with them along the way. They tried to catch up but couldn't catch up. There was a battle halfway and another battle near Wujia Slope.

In the battle on the way, the Japanese army suffered a loss because the opponent ambushed them.

Both sides had a victory in the battle near Wujiapo, but both suffered dozens of casualties.

Now that he wanted to capture Wujiapo, how could he not be prepared for another attack by that group of Chinese officers and soldiers?

He directly sent a squadron to build a semicircular defense circle for his end at a distance of about 500 meters.

But now he doesn't know why there is a loophole in the defense circle. When he turns around and looks at his current position, he can see that there is a bullet fired by the bullet directly south of him, which is about five or six hundred meters away. The gunfire was shining, and looking at the flight trajectories of those bullets, they hit the heavy machine gun position originally behind him!

However, the Japanese captain did not believe that no matter how capable the Chinese army was at this time, it could still defeat a squadron of its own.

Sure enough, just as the gunfire of the Chinese army attacking the heavy machine gun position rang out, another gunshot joined the battle group. It was the people from their squadron who started shooting at the Chinese army.

Unsurprisingly, the attack by this group of Chinese troops came and went quickly. In an instant, all the gunshots were silenced, and there was no longer any gunfire directed at them.

But then, the captain noticed a flash of white light and an explosion at the heavy machine gun position, and then his heavy machine gun never sounded again. The heavy machine gun position was blown up!

"***" The Japanese captain could only shout again.

Before he finished shouting, his men must have seen the battlefield situation and understood his intentions. Near the Japanese captain, there was another "bang" and a flare was sent into the air, and this time the direction was exactly to their south.

For the Japanese army, without flares, this kind of battle cannot be fought!

They can't just fire flares all over the sky, right?

Moreover, according to the deployment of the Japanese captain, in order to capture Wujiapo in one go, they had to choose where to fire the flares.

Fire the flares to the south slope of Wujiapo, so that Shang Zhen and his men on the mountain would not dare to shoot at the stone ledge on the south slope.

When the flare reaches the top of the mountain, it can illuminate the top of the mountain very clearly, and the light on the hillside is relatively dark, which is conducive to the concealment of the attacking Japanese army.

But now, the Chinese army on the periphery is attacking in large numbers, and they can no longer provide support to the Japanese army attacking the mountain, so won’t the flare have to be fired at the south?

But when the flare rose into the sky and had not exploded, the Japanese captain heard a burst of explosions from the place where the opponent’s gunfire was just shining. The explosions were so dense that he ignored the sound of his own flare exploding.

He raised the telescope and looked carefully, but this time all he could see was the smoke and dust formed by the grenade explosion!

Those veterans of the Chinese army were really good soldiers. They actually threw grenades or hand grenades the moment the Japanese army just fired the flare. Obviously, they took advantage of the smoke produced by the explosion to retreat.

"Baga!" The Japanese captain couldn't help but curse. He had never met such a difficult opponent.

When he retracted his gaze and was about to look back, that is, towards Wujiapo, his eyes flashed across a man who was being held by two Japanese soldiers beside him.

The man was trembling under the illumination of the flare. He was a prisoner captured by the Japanese captain, a prisoner who knew everything and told everything - Xu Lang!

It was he who provided the Japanese captain with accurate information about Shang Zhen.

If Xu Lang had not provided information about Shang Zhen, how could the Japanese army attack the mountain at night? They were afraid that Shang Zhen would escape from Wujiapo again in the dark!
