Cross the Songhu battlefield and rise to become the most powerful warlord

29 Night Counterattack on Position No.

“I will personally lead the operation tonight.

This battle was our first counterattack since arriving here.

It has to be done beautifully.”

Ye Qingshan said solemnly to Zhou Pingkou, Lu Dahai and others.

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison, they also knew the importance of this battle.

"Just now, I conducted an observation on the No. 3 position.

There is at least a squadron of Japanese soldiers stationed there.

Tonight's counterattack must be a surprise attack on the Japanese.

It must not turn into a violent attack."

Zhou Pingkou also said with a serious expression.

This battle was not easy to fight. The Japanese obviously attached great importance to position No. 3 and defended it with heavy troops.

But Zhou Pingkou also understood that this battle had to be fought.

Let’s not talk about the issue of using this victory to restore the confidence of the soldiers of the Third Battalion.

The geographical advantage of Position No. 3 alone forced them to quickly recapture it.

Otherwise, wait until the next time the Japanese attack again.

They can use position No. 3 as the front line, and it will be easier to attack the three small positions behind them.

After losing position No. 3, the left wing position of the Third Battalion could not be defended.

The Japanese also clearly saw this.

Therefore, after they captured position No. 3, they were not in a hurry to attack.

“I have plans for tonight’s operation.

I will lead the Black Bear reconnaissance squad first..."

Ye Qingshan already had an idea in his mind about how to fight tonight's counterattack.

Night counterattacks and special operations were his specialties as a special forces soldier in his previous life.

During this period, the soldiers of Black Bear's reconnaissance squad followed Ye Qingshan.

In private, he also received comprehensive guidance from Ye Qingshan and made rapid progress.

Although, there is still some distance to go before he can become a qualified special forces soldier in the future.

However, compared to soldiers of this era, they already have a preliminary understanding of special operations.

As it got dark, Li Tianhan and Sun Taidong also issued mobilization orders at the positions of the first and second companies.

Tonight, although they are not the main force to counterattack the Japanese in position No. 3.

However, Ye Qingshan still gave them orders to cooperate.

They are also responsible for blocking the Japanese reinforcements coming from other directions.

"Why haven't you started yet?"

Sun Taidong looked at his watch anxiously.

Ye Qingshan did not tell them the specific time of action tonight.

They only need to see the battle start at position No. 3 and block the Japanese coming from other directions.

Ye Qingshan first let the soldiers eat and sleep after nightfall.

It was not until the second half of the night that they were all woken up.

"Da Hai, take your entire company and move to the depression southwest of position No. 3 to lie in ambush and wait for my attack signal.

Black Bear and I went over there,

Kill the Japanese sentries outside.

Lao Zhou, when you hear us start fighting, bombard the enemy's No. 3 position hard."

Ye Qingshan gave them instructions.

"Captain, it's too dangerous for you to go there yourself. Let me do it."

Lu Dahai was worried about Ye Qingshan's safety and said,

“You can’t.

I must come in person.”

Ye Qingshan shook his head.

This battle is so important that Black Bear can only cooperate with him.

Ye Qingshan had to take action himself to have a chance to kill the Japanese sentries outside quietly.

At one o'clock in the morning on the 6th, Ye Qingshan set off first with the Black Bear reconnaissance squad.

Lu Dahai led the third company to the southwest side of the No. 3 position and lay in ambush.

It was late at night and the sentries outside the Japanese position were also feeling a little sleepy.

There is only half an hour left before they change shifts.

The Japanese sentry hiding in the trench did not notice at all that there were several figures lying in front of their position.

The Japanese searchlights would shine over here every minute.

In order to get closer to the Japanese trenches, Ye Qingshan, Hei Xiong, and three other agile scouts.

It took more than half an hour to get to this location.

At this time, Ye Qingshan could hear the yawning sound of the Japanese soldier in the trench in front.

"There's a Japanese soldier in the trench three meters ahead.

Five meters to the east, there are two more devils. "

After listening for a while, Ye Qingshan came to this conclusion.

Then he gestured to the black bear.

After the Japanese searchlight swept over again, Ye Qingshan acted decisively.

Move like a rabbit!

Ye Qingshan suddenly leaped forward and climbed directly into the Japanese trench.

It just happened to be leaning next to the Japanese sentry.

At this time, the Japanese sentry was still slacking off. He was taking out a cigarette, lighting it, and preparing to smoke secretly.

He was also confused when faced with the black shadow that suddenly appeared.

He turned his head and looked at Ye Qingshan, and their eyes met.

"Hey!"

Ye Qingshan grinned at the Japanese soldier, causing his expression to change drastically.

In a panic, he would touch the Type 38 rifle next to him.

But Ye Qingshan didn't give him the chance at all. He covered the devil's mouth and nose with his left hand, and stabbed a sharp bayonet in his right hand into his heart.

Stir it hard and crush the devil's heart.

The other party kicked his legs hard a few times, then died with his eyes wide open.

The noise made by the kicking of this Japanese soldier also attracted the attention of the people at the corner of the trench five meters to the east.

The other two Japanese sentries heard the noise.

A Japanese soldier stuck his head out and looked towards Ye Qingshan.

But all he saw was the back of the devil and the wisps of green smoke coming out from in front of him.

"Baga, Sato-kun is smoking secretly again."

The Japanese soldier who stuck his head out said to his other companion with a smile and curse.

He didn't notice anything unusual and quickly retracted his head, choosing not to report his comrades.

At this time, the Japanese soldier had no idea.

His comrade-in-arms had died long ago.

Ye Qingshan was hiding in the arms of the Japanese soldier who was killed. The smoke rings he exhaled at this time were actually made by him.

A few seconds later, Ye Qingshan slowly pushed down the Japanese corpse in front of him and slowly approached the corner in front with a bayonet.

As soon as I turned the corner, I saw two Japanese soldiers leaning against the trench, secretly smoking and chatting in low voices.

They noticed someone approaching and thought it was the Japanese soldier who had just been killed by Ye Qingshan.

"Sato-kun, you're just..."

A Japanese soldier was about to turn around and talk to his comrades.

The next second, a bayonet pierced his neck.

"Nani?"

The other Japanese soldier on the opposite side was instantly stunned and his hair stood on end.

He realized that it was the enemy approaching, and he looked panicked and instinctively wanted to fight back.

But how could Ye Qingshan give him the chance? He quickly pulled out the bayonet from the neck of the Japanese soldier in front of him.

He threw it hard at another Japanese soldier two steps away.

The bayonet pierced the throat of the Japanese soldier opposite accurately.

Blood gushed out, and the Japanese soldier held his throat which was gushing with blood, but could not make a sound.

When Ye Qingshan took care of these three Japanese sentinels.

Black Bear also led his men into the enemy's trench and saw the three enemy soldiers that Ye Qingshan had killed.

"My god, the battalion commander is simply possessed by the god of war."

Black Bear muttered quietly.

At this time, Ye Qingshan was already stripping off the military uniform of a Japanese soldier.

He made a gesture to the black bear behind him.

Black Bear understood what Ye Qingshan meant, and then began to strip off the military uniform of the Japanese corpse in front of him.

Several other reconnaissance squad soldiers quickly dragged the smooth body of the Japanese soldier to the side and hid it.

Soon, three Japanese soldiers took over and approached along the trench.

They are here to relieve the shift.

Ye Qingshan and Black Bear leaned against the trench, buried their heads in their arms, and pretended to fall asleep.

"Baga, these two idiots actually fell asleep due to laziness.

If the Chinese come up here, we will be in trouble."

The Japanese soldiers who came over saw the two men like this and thought they were sleeping.

The Japanese soldier in the front was also very angry.

He strode towards Ye Qingshan and Black Bear, grabbed Ye Qingshan's shoulders and pulled him up.

"Baga, you..."

puff!

Before the Japanese soldier could finish his words, Ye Qingshan stabbed his throat with a bayonet.

Ye Qingshan's moves were swift and fierce, not giving the Japanese any chance to make any noise.

The moment Ye Qingshan made his move, the black bear next to him also moved.

He pounced on another Japanese soldier next to him, pressed him under his body, and covered his mouth and nose tightly.

With the sharp bayonet in his hand, he stabbed the enemy's abdomen again and again.

Soon, the devil stopped moving.

When the black bear sat up, panting,

Then I saw that Ye Qingshan had killed the third Japanese soldier at the back.

"Hurry up, let the others change into the devil's clothes."

Ye Qingshan said in a low voice.

Immediately, Ye Qingshan and Hei Xiong and others pretended to be the Japanese sentries taking over and approached the Japanese soldier who was holding the searchlight.

There are two devils here.

As Ye Qingshan slowly approached, a Japanese soldier suddenly said to him under the searchlight: "You guys changed shifts very quickly tonight."

Ye Qingshan looked at the Japanese soldiers opposite him and replied with a smile in a fluent Japanese language with a pure Kyoto accent, "Change shifts early and come back to sleep early.

I am dying of sleep."

The night view made it difficult for the Japanese to see Ye Qingshan’s face clearly.

But Ye Qingshan's fluent Japanese made the Japanese soldiers under the searchlight have no doubts at all.

When Ye Qingshan approached the other party, within three steps, the Japanese finally saw Ye Qingshan's face clearly.

He looked at him with a smile, then slit the devil's throat.

The black bear also took decisive action.

The two men cooperated again and sent away the two Japanese soldiers holding the searchlights.

Next, Ye Qingshan continued to turn the searchlight, and as usual, swept across the front of the position over and over again.

However, Ye Qingshan's rotation speed was obviously much slower.

He even deliberately avoided the searchlights from the southwest.

When Lu Dahai saw the front line of the Japanese position, a soldier from the reconnaissance squad gestured to them.

Master Lu immediately knew that Ye Qingshan and his men's action had been successful. This was the signal for them to provide cover as they entered the enemy's position.

"Everyone, don't make any noise for me.

Now follow me and get into the enemy's trenches."

Lu Dahai whispered to the soldiers of the third company behind him.
