The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

Text Chapter 522 Pretending to Deceive

At dawn, the wet mist filled the mountains and forests, and the distant mountains and near forests were shrouded in the mist, looming like a fairyland.

The crystal dew rolled down from the dead vines, and the thumping birds also chirped, adding a lot of vigor and vitality to the mountain forest invisibly.

Explosions and gunshots resounded throughout the night, and the mountains became quiet again. Teams of devil soldiers, exhausted from tossing and bloodshot eyes, carefully searched and advanced along the winding mountain road.

As the night faded and the light descended on the earth again, the faces of these haggard devil soldiers relaxed a lot. Compared with the constant and endless attacks in the night, the daytime gave them an inexplicable sense of security.

Hundreds of Yang Ling and his brothers were divided into nearly a hundred attacking teams, distributed throughout the devil's retreat, using various methods to harass the devil, and the tossing devil was miserable.

The arrogant devils felt the fear of the night for the first time. Even the rifles in their hands could not give them any sense of security. They had to stare at the darkness all the time to prevent being attacked.

But even though they raised the level of alert to the highest level, there were still many loopholes in the marching team, and those attacks were sometimes sniping, and sometimes dropping bombs.

The devil troops who had to travel overnight had to pay attention to their feet. At first, there were groups of landmines with amazing explosion power, and later they were camouflaged traps.

Those trap holes are filled with sharpened moso bamboos. Once a soldier walking in front accidentally falls in, those sharp moso bamboos can penetrate the whole body of the person.

Many ghost soldiers saw the pioneer soldiers carried down from the front. They didn't die immediately. They were still alive when they were pulled out, but it was more painful than death.

They wailed in pain as they stepped into the trap, their chests were pierced by five sharpened moso bamboos, and those bamboo tips dripping with blood made the devil soldiers shudder when they saw this scene.

They cursed those attackers secretly in their hearts, and at the same time they swore secretly in their hearts that as long as they stepped into such a trap, they would rather commit suicide than suffer in pain.

Compared with these various traps, those attackers who hide in the night will also take off the clothes of the dead and put them on, and then sneak into their team silently.

The whole team was in a state of high tension, their eyes were fixed on the places where the explosions and gunshots were fired, but they didn't know that their attackers had already camouflaged beside them.

The 6th Brigade consisted of thousands of soldiers. They pulled the team out for several miles along the rugged mountain road, regardless of the front and the end.

Many soldiers of the Devils are strangers to the soldiers of the rest of the unit except those who know their own unit or squad, and the chaos caused by the attack makes them unaware that the enemy has sneaked beside them.

And Yang Ling and the others took advantage of the dark night to sneak in with a bold disguise. Many brothers sneaked into the devil's team, sometimes touched their ammunition boxes to detonate grenades, and sometimes snatched machine guns and fired wildly.

Although most of these death squad-like brothers died on the spot, the chaos and casualties they caused to the devils multiplied. As a result, the devils no longer trust outsiders except their own team members.

Because those who speak Japanese are also unreliable. One of their lieutenants was wiped off the neck by an attacker who could speak Japanese and pretended to be a messenger.

What's horrible is that the person who attacked them unexpectedly ran away in the night, which made them very angry and resentful.

Those attacks that happened all the time made the ghost soldiers who had never taken the Chinese army seriously suffered so much that they almost went crazy.

The road they evacuated from Minshan to Ruichang had never expected to be so difficult. They could have passed through the mountainous area in three hours, but it took them six hours to get out.

But fortunately for these ghost soldiers, at dawn, the biggest support of those attackers disappeared. These angry ghost soldiers believed that in such a daytime, as long as they dared to attack, they would definitely make the opponent come and go. .

Indeed, as the devils expected, at dawn, Yang Ling and the others who had run out of bullets and grenades did not dare to approach the heavily guarded devils.

Although they are like ducks in water at night, they can use countless ways to attack those devils, even if the devils are well-prepared, it is useless, but in the daytime, their advantages are gone.

The devil's individual quality is very high, the marksmanship is also very good, and the team's coordination is very familiar. In such a day to provoke the devil, even if the devil is tired, Yang Ling and the others are not sure that they will retreat.

So after dawn, Yang Ling and the others, who had been tossing the night frequently, began to retreat to the predetermined location, giving up the idea of ​​attacking during the day.

Although Yang Ling and the others quietly evacuated, the traps left behind still existed, and the speed of the devil's march was not much faster.

The vanguard squad led by the devils has changed many times in just a few hours. Their predecessors were not injured or disabled, and their condition was appalling.

Although serving as a vanguard has always been a dangerous task, at this moment, in the face of pervasive danger, this danger has risen to a limit.

Sergeant Cao Dajiao Guanyi's vanguard detachment had just rotated up half an hour ago. Their previous vanguard detachment had killed five people and seriously injured three people who had lost their combat effectiveness and had to be replaced.

Dajiao Guanyi is a veteran who has fought many tough battles. He has personally killed more than ten Chinese officers and soldiers. He has rich combat experience.

However, when he received the task of searching for the vanguard, he still couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth. The continuous casualties of the troops made a veteran like him a little afraid of being a vanguard, but the commander's order forced him to bite the bullet.

Because they were worried about stepping on a landmine again and causing huge casualties, the entire vanguard team scattered widely, with four riflemen in front, a machine gun support team in the middle, and four riflemen behind.

After marching in the mountains for so long, Dajiao Guanyi's steps were as heavy as lead. Although he felt tired for a while, he still kept his spirits alert to the situation around him.

"Huh?" Dajiao Guanyi glanced at a big tree lying across the road in front of him, his pupils shrank slightly, and realizing the danger, he hastily gave a low drink.

The entire vanguard unit quickly lay down and hid like a frightened bird, and began to look around to prevent raiders from attacking.

And the troops marching more than 100 meters away from the vanguard detachment also stopped suddenly, pulling their gun bolts one after another, and began to be on alert, as if they were facing an enemy.

"What's going on?" A second lieutenant who was half-squatting behind the rocks shouted.

"Sir, I suspect there is a tripping mine." Officer Dajiao replied once.

They encountered this kind of situation last night. Seeing those big trees lying across the road, they subconsciously moved to the side of the road, but as soon as they moved, the bang exploded, causing many casualties. Now they have to Be careless.

"Ask for support from the engineering troops." The second lieutenant ordered, and a devil soldier immediately got up and ran towards the back of the team.

Soon more than a dozen devil engineers arrived at the scene under the cover of machine guns. After repeatedly confirming that there was no ambush in the surrounding woods, they stepped forward to deal with it.

But after the big horn officer waited nervously for a while, the engineer lieutenant shrugged and said helplessly: "There is nothing."

There was indeed nothing, because it was just a fake trap tree that had been brought down. To scare the devils, Yang Ling and the others had already run out of ammunition.

Text Chapter 523 Achievements

Thousands of arrogant devil soldiers from the Maruyama Brigade spent a tormenting night in the swampy mountainous area. Fortunately, at dawn, those elusive raiders disappeared without a trace.

Even though every devil soldier was fierce and frightening, human physical strength had its limit after all. Continuous fighting had exhausted them to the extreme. As Yang Ling and the others withdrew, the devil's tense nerves finally relaxed.

After a brief reorganization and counting of casualties, the staggering Japanese soldier team began to move again. Although they were still exhausted, their expressions were obviously much more relaxed.

Although the true and false traps on the road ahead still exist, in the past hour, there has been no news of any casualties in the face of those experienced search troops.

The messengers of the brigade headquarters rushed to the front of the team along the mountain road, and spread the news that the 106th Division was approaching to the team. The spirit of the team with low morale was obviously much better, and many troops burst into wild cheers .

As the day dawned, there seemed to be more good news, and these devil soldiers, who were in panic all day long, finally recovered a little bit of energy.

The sound of guns rumbled behind him, and the gunshots were getting closer and closer. It was the chasing troops of the 74th Army who were chasing and killing them.

But the ghost soldiers marching on the mountain road did not worry too much, because the head of the brigade, Masao Maruyama, had sent a Mori heavy brigade to block it.

Although the blocking force of the Mori Group was broken through several openings last night, the chasing 74th Army also exhausted its strength in the fierce battle in Minshan, and was unable to expand the results of the battle.

As several reinforcements passed by, the defense line broken by the 74th Army was impregnable again, and the two sides just walked and fought.

The ghost soldiers who were not attacked were obviously in a much better mood. They swear viciously when they heard the roaring explosions coming from behind them.

When they arrived in Ruichang, they recoiled back after receiving the ammunition, and gave a good lesson to the Chinese army who were advancing in an inch.

The retreating Maruyama Brigade trailed for more than ten miles. Ono Ichiro's vanguard brigade was almost out of the mountain, while the Mori heavy brigade in the rear was still fighting and killing the pursuing 74th Army more than ten miles away.
