Chapter 20 Extreme Operations
Wang Yousheng understood the whole plan.
In this era, the concept of special operations did not yet exist, but Li Yunlong, who came from humble beginnings, had already grasped this point.
This is a bold idea; fortune favors the bold.
At this moment, at the foot of the mountain, dozens of Japanese soldiers were happily eating in several circles.
The Japanese were shrewd; they would usually station four sentries within a radius of 300 meters, and it had to be an open area, even if they were in the mountains, to ensure a full field of vision.
Once the Japanese sentry was stationed, the small detachment was about 600 meters away from the Japanese camp.
The distance was precisely measured, so that if the sentry encountered an attack, the Japanese would immediately begin their offensive and defensive maneuvers.
The Japanese were not afraid of attacks because the distance was too great; the Eighth Route Army's Hanyang rifles could not reach the camp, and the bullets would miss.
Without experienced commanders to lead the way, it is very likely that this major taboo will be committed.
Having fought so many battles over the years, Li Yunlong had long since figured out the Japanese army's troop deployment.
Action, begin!
Li Yunlong ordered a soldier to approach the Japanese sentry and draw the Japanese's attention.
The soldier wasn't nervous at all. Dressed in civilian clothes, he jumped onto the mountain path and threw a pile of broken stones at the Japanese soldiers. Although he couldn't hit them, he could easily provoke them.
"Baka!"
The stone was thrown not far from the Japanese soldier, whose lewd face turned around, and he realized that someone actually dared to launch a sneak attack.
Just as he raised his gun to fire, the soldier darted into the woods at top speed.
boom!
The Japanese soldiers weren't stupid; they opened fire without hesitation.
The bullet missed, but it woke up all the Japanese soldiers.
In the camp, the Japanese squad leader suddenly stood up.
Something's up!
In less than ten seconds, the entire squad of Japanese soldiers was on high alert. The machine gunners found cover on the spot, loaded their bullets, and the artillerymen quickly set up their grenade launchers.
The Japanese soldiers reacted with astonishing speed.
However, after the shot, there was no reaction.
Japanese squad leader: "What???"
"Captain Fujita looks like he's dealing with some Chinese scoundrel!"
A soldier came to report.
"A troublemaker? Oh my, I thought you were a member of the Eighth Route Army. Alright, alright, keep eating."
The Japanese squad leader relaxed his guard and sat down.
At the same time, the soldier jumped back onto the mountain path and, taking advantage of the Japanese sentries' inattention, threw another pile of stones.
"Baka yarou!"
The Japanese sentry was enraged.
This time, no shots were fired; instead, another Japanese soldier was immediately called to give chase.
"pretty!"
In the woods on the hillside, Li Yunlong saw the Japanese soldiers coming up, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
The Japanese devils have been tricked!
Enraged, the two Japanese soldiers chased after him all the way up into the mountains. At the same time, two soldiers hiding in the left and right bunkers took the opportunity to get close.
Zhang Shan grabbed one of the Japanese soldiers from behind, while another soldier pulled hard on the soldier's legs. Zhang Shan then released his grip, and with a 'bang,' the Japanese soldier fell to the ground before he could even react.
Without hesitation, Zhang Shan seized the opportunity and plunged a cold bayonet into the heart of the Japanese soldier.
"Baka!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, another Japanese soldier was about to raise his gun to fire when Li Yunlong, who was hiding nearby, quickly took a running start and kicked the Japanese soldier in the shoulder from behind. Under the huge force of the running start, the Japanese soldier lost his balance and fell to the ground in a sorry state.
At the same time, two soldiers rushed over. One grabbed the Japanese soldier by the neck, while the other pressed the Japanese soldier's hands against his chest with a Type 38 rifle, rendering him unable to move.
Li Yunlong lunged forward, and his bayonet instantly pierced the Japanese soldier's chest.
In less than a minute, the two Japanese soldiers were killed.
[Combat Detection: Two Japanese soldiers eliminated, score +20]
Wang Yousheng also received a reward from his backstage team.
"Give me and Zhang Shan the grenades. Shengzi, give me your gun!" Li Yunlong ordered, taking Wang Yousheng's Mauser pistol.
The two Japanese soldiers were stripped of their equipment in an instant.
Two Type 38 rifles, more than 200 rounds of ammunition, and four Type 91 fragmentation grenades.
Li Yunlong and Zhang Shan each took 50 bullets and two grenades, and the remaining bullets were divided equally among the soldiers.
The commotion quickly caught the attention of the remaining two sentries.
One sentry retreated to report the situation to the Japanese squad leader, while another sentry boldly came over to investigate.
Although the sentry was a little cautious, he fell into the soldiers' ambush as soon as he arrived, and was easily dealt with in less than a minute.
The bullets were split again, and then Li Yunlong began to plan the second step of the operation!
Now, the squad has no way to retreat.
First, they gathered the bodies of three Japanese soldiers in one place to lure the Japanese soldiers away.
Then give each of the two soldiers a grenade and have them hide within 30 meters to the left and right of the Japanese corpses to fish.
Never use grenades lightly unless the Japanese soldiers get close.
Based on Li Yunlong's combat experience, whenever the Japanese soldiers discovered a corpse, they would definitely come to check it out. There would be three or five corpses, or one or two at most. No matter how many there were, he would throw a grenade at them and then run away.
At a distance of thirty meters, throwing grenades from both sides simultaneously would severely injure the Japanese soldiers, even if they missed.
The other soldiers, led by Wang Yousheng, were positioned in ambush around the area.
As soon as the grenade went off, the Japanese reinforcements would definitely attack in the direction the grenade was thrown. Wang Yousheng and his soldiers hid behind them and fired a shot at the Japanese. Regardless of whether they hit the target or not, they ran as far as they could to draw the Japanese into splitting up.
Li Yunlong and Zhang Shan remained hidden in the shadows. If the Japanese squad entered the mountains, they would fire shots from the shadows and then run away. If the Japanese did not enter the mountains, everyone would move towards the Japanese camp.
Once the Japanese soldiers realized something was wrong, they would definitely retreat, and the Japanese soldiers guarding the trucks would also send a distress signal to the stronghold forty kilometers away.
"Captain! Something's wrong in the mountains ahead!"
In the camp, the sentry reported to the Japanese captain.
The Japanese squad leader became wary and cursed, "Baka! It must be some guerrillas."
"All soldiers, protect the supplies!"
In an instant, the Japanese soldiers occupied advantageous firing positions, with two machine gunners positioned on either side of the transport truck, and the artillery behind them ready with shells.
The transport team was not a combat unit, and the Japanese captain wasn't stupid enough to charge forward.
In the woods, Wang Yousheng could see everything clearly. He hurriedly reported to Li Yunlong, "Old Regimental Commander, the Japanese aren't falling for it. They're all guarding the transport trucks."
Li Yunlong raised an eyebrow, an idea forming in his mind. He sneered, "Don't worry, I have a way to force him out."
"Zhang Shan, go strip the Japanese soldiers of their clothes and throw them on the road," Li Yunlong ordered.
"Alright!" Zhang Shan smiled knowingly.
Zhang Shan and another soldier quickly stripped a Japanese soldier naked, leaving him only in a loincloth and helmet. Then, positioned themselves in the enemy's blind spot, they threw the Japanese soldier's body and clothes onto the curb.
Clang!
The commotion on the road caught the attention of the Japanese soldiers.
Chu Chu Chu!
A series of soft, dense sounds rang out, and the Japanese soldiers suddenly swept their two machine guns across the battlefield.
The Japanese squad leader saw the soldier's helmet and the corpse's loincloth and immediately cursed, "Stop! Baka! This is a soldier of our Imperial Japanese Army!"
"Damn it! You bunch of Eighth Route Army bastards, how dare you insult the soldiers of the Great Japanese Imperial Army! Third Squad, hold the supplies! First Squad, Second Squad, follow me!"
The Japanese squad leader was clearly enraged and charged forward, raising his command sword.
[Battle Overview: Two small Japanese squads have been detected approaching this area. Please be cautious.]
While Wang Yousheng was observing, the golden finger had already sent a message.
Two small squads, twenty-three Japanese soldiers, plus the Japanese squad leader, twenty-four in total.
Seeing this, Li Yunlong ordered, "Comrades, the Japanese are coming up. Proceed according to the original plan."
"yes!"
