Chapter 260 The Benefits of Mourning Clothes
But what they didn't expect was that there were Japanese soldiers running fast behind them on the left.
"Damn it, why are there devils here!"
The Japanese here have a squadron, plus a battalion of puppet troops and a detective team.
These guys did not follow the trail that Yuan Shuai had run in to chase him, but instead made a detour to the left to prevent Yuan Shuai from laying mines on the road.
Jiang Dagui only had about a hundred people here. Faced with so many Japanese and puppet army detective teams, they had no choice but to lie on the snow.
After all, their numbers were small, and the Japanese were less than 500 meters away from them, so they had no time to lay mines and set up blocking positions.
What's more, their goal is to find Monkey and Fatty, and Yuan Shuai has another plan.
If they open fire here, it will not only interrupt their mission, but also affect Yuan Shuai's combat plan.
Fortunately, each of them was wearing white mourning clothes.
Lying on the snow, he pressed the spear directly into the snow.
From a distance, if you don't look carefully, you can't tell that there are people here.
The Japs' footsteps were getting closer.
Some brothers couldn't help but grit their teeth and clench their guns.
"Don't move, don't move!"
Jiang Dagui quickly lowered his voice to remind him.
No one dared to move.
The Japanese were speeding through the woods less than thirty meters in front of them, scaring them so much that they broke out in cold sweats.
Suddenly, a guy from the detective team ran over here with his trousers held up, as if he wanted to relieve himself.
Finished!
Damn dog traitor, why did he come to our place?
Jiang Dagui and others suddenly became anxious.
Once discovered, it will definitely be a fierce battle.
However, when the detective team ran about ten meters, gunshots suddenly rang out in the distance ahead.
"Bagayalu, keep going, you, keep going!"
The Japanese squadron leader pointed at the people in front and shouted loudly, then yelled at the detective who was about to go to the bathroom.
"Taijun, I can't hold it anymore!"
"Bagayalu, keep going!"
The Japanese squadron quickly took out their tortoise boxes, and the guy was so scared that he quickly turned back.
Jiang Dagui and others finally put their worries to rest when they saw the detective team, puppet troops and Japanese devils running past them.
Damn, luckily I wasn’t discovered.
Everyone's palms were sweating.
Jiang Dagui waited until the Japanese went far away before asking the signalman to notify Yuan Shuai.
Yuan Shuai originally wanted to lay a mine here.
But when he heard the news, Yuan Shuai frowned immediately.
"Damn it, outflanking from both sides?! Give up laying mines, continue to retreat, walk the dog in the snow, tire the Japanese to death!"
At Yuan Shuai's command, some brothers who had just taken out grenades and were preparing to plant mines immediately put them back and continued to run forward.
Running wildly in the snow in the woods, the snow under my feet was above my calves. I had to use a lot of effort to pull it out once I stepped on it.
Therefore, running wildly in the woods and snow requires a lot of physical energy.
But General Yuan has more than 300 war horses. The horses are tall and have long legs, so they can run fast in the snow.
In order to clean up the traces, Jiang Dagui and others did not ride away on their horses, but let the horses carry food and ammunition.
General Yuan has ordered Zhang Wei's Hunan Army to charge to the front with these war horses.
The others all followed and ran forward.
After running for an hour, the team's speed gradually slowed down.
But Yuan Shuai still didn't dare to let the team stop to rest, but asked the players to drink a few sips of wine and then continue running.
Because this time we are competing to see who is faster and who has better endurance.
As long as they can wear down the Japanese troops, they will have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
Just as Yuan Shuai thought, the puppet army, the detective team and the Japanese troops were moving slower and slower, and they were all gasping for breath due to exhaustion.
"Taijun, why don't you take a break? The brothers can't hold on any longer!"
"The snow is too deep, and the brothers are exhausted. Why don't you finish lunch first and then continue!"
The puppet army officers and detective team captains on both sides ran to the Japanese squadron leader to plead for mercy.
The Japs themselves were already extremely tired, and they had no war horses.
Only the Japanese captain was riding a war horse.
The Japanese captain wanted to say something, but his stomach made a protesting sound. He could only let the team rest and eat on the spot, and then continue to move forward after the meal.
On the other side, the Japanese field artillery battalion was also resting on the spot.
Although they were running on the road, most of the time they had to roll back the wheels of their field artillery, which made them more tired than other Japanese soldiers.
After running a long way, the Japanese field artillery battalion commander had to ask his troops to light a fire and heat up the food.
However, what they didn't expect was that Monkey and Fatty had been following these Japanese devils on the hillside beside the road.
Monkey, Fatty and the others were already very cold, and when they saw the Japs roasting themselves by the fire, they gritted their teeth and cursed under their breath.
"Damn it! I'm lying here in the snow and you're warming yourself by the fire!"
"Monkeys, let's just kill them!"
The fat man wanted to shoot right now.
"Nonsense, if I could fight I would have done it a long time ago. There are only five of us now, and the Japanese have six or seven hundred people. Tell me, how do we fight?!"
"I... Damn it, why hasn't the boss sent anyone over yet!"
The fat man looked back helplessly.
However, when the fat man saw someone running wildly in the jungle, he smiled evilly.
"Monkey, here they come, Dagui and the others are here!"
"Damn it, it's finally here!"
Monkey looked at Jiang Dagui and others running towards here, and quickly took his men to meet them.
After they met up, Monkey couldn't help but punch Jiang Dagui in the chest.
"Why are you here just now?"
"We met the devils on the way and almost got into a fight. How did it go?"
Jiang Dagui explained while breathing heavily.
"The Japanese artillerymen are taking a break and eating, so we can take this opportunity to plant mines on the road ahead!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up!"
Although Jiang Dagui and his companions were so tired that they wanted to lie down, they had to grit their teeth and persevere in order to kill the Japanese. They ran forward and came to the side of a road. They left some people on the top of the mountain to stand guard and sent others to plant mines on the side of the road.
After the minefield was buried, everyone hid themselves, lying in the snow, chewing cold, hard biscuits to satisfy their hunger.
Finally, the Japanese artillery slowly came here.
Everyone suddenly became alert.
When the Japanese entered the minefield, the one in front triggered a booby trap.
The booby traps on both sides of the road exploded one after another.
Gunfire rang out quickly from both sides.
The grenade whizzed towards the Japs.
The Japanese captain was so scared that he quickly hid behind a pile of snow beside the road, took out his turtle box and roared loudly.
"Bagayalu, counterattack, counterattack!"
Unfortunately, this was the Japanese 75th Field Artillery Battalion. These artillerymen basically only carried bayonets. Occasionally some of them carried turtle boxes and Type rifles, but no one carried machine guns.
Although they were numerous, there were more than 680 of them.
But all the rifles added up were only more than a hundred, and all the bastard boxes added up were only more than three hundred, and the rest were bayonets.
Although the Black Wolf Army had fewer people, they killed many Japanese soldiers in the minefields on both sides of the road.
Jiang Dagui's guard company is the best-equipped company under Yuan Shuai.
Although they did not bring any infantry guns or mortars this time, each squad had three Czech machine guns and four grenade launchers.
