Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

Chapter 18: Action Begins, Japanese Army Falls into Despair

Cao Geng smiled gently.

He ignored the company commander who asked.

Now that he has come to the world of "Drawing Sword", Cao Geng wants to show the spirit of "the brave prevails when two meet in a narrow road".

Although once heavy weapons are used up in war, they cannot be used again.

But if they were defeated, they would not even have fire cover when they fled.

But who can say that Cao Geng intended to escape?

Cao Geng only knows how to fight a battle that he is sure of victory.

The soldiers he leads must have the courage to fight to the death in every battle!

Only in this way can Cao Geng lead his troops to victory in every battle!

This is the true meaning of the victory of the brave when two meet in a narrow road!

The sword-drawing spirit of their new regiment must possess a bloodiness that is unmatched by other countries and troops!

At this time, Cao Geng indeed saw the Japanese approaching their ambush site.

Cao Geng's eyes suddenly became firm.

Everyone in the Third Battalion held their breath nervously.

This is a large group of little devils.

At least three times more than the total strength of their three battalions!

However, they are about to ambush this Japanese army unit now!

There was no fear in Cao Geng's eyes, only excitement.

The devils are getting closer!

Closer!

It was quiet on both sides of the col.

At the same time, the Japanese reconnaissance troops did not find anything unusual.

Just as the Japanese vanguard had just crossed the M-shaped col.

"Hit me!"

Suddenly, just as Cao Geng had arranged in advance, the deputy battalion commander's voice sounded from the right side of the col, his eyes were wide open and his face was ferocious.

The Japanese vanguard had just crossed the M-shaped col.

The soldiers of their third battalion can just attack the center of the Japanese army!

Chu Chu Chu!

Da da da!

Boom boom boom!

There was continuous gunfire and even the sound of grenade explosions.

It immediately echoed in the valley.

The Japanese troops were caught off guard and some soldiers were killed or wounded instantly.

……

on the other hand,

The Japanese vanguard suddenly heard a commotion coming from the rear, accompanied by gunshots!

"What's going on? What's going on? Guard, go and see what's happening." The captain shouted angrily.

After the guard agreed, he hurried to the rear. After a moment, he returned anxiously and reported to the captain.

"It seems that there was an enemy attack from behind."

"Enemy attack? Could it be that damn Shanxi-Suiyuan Army again?" The captain was furious.

Previously, they had fought most with the large forces of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army in Huaiyi County, so their first reaction when they were attacked was naturally to think that it was an ambush by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

"Not sure. The enemy is in the valley on the right and hasn't shown up yet..."

"No matter what, the enemy's artillery fire is coming from the right valley. We must first avoid their sharp edge, find cover, retreat to the left, and get out of their firing range!" Then the captain gave the order.

He had already determined that the enemy was the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

This damn group of Shanxi-Suiyuan troops.

If you are not given a chance to suffer, you will always love to make trouble.

After the enemy's artillery fire stopped temporarily and their Japanese soldiers were ready, he would have to deal with the suddenly appearing Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

However, just as he had this thought, his troops retreated to the left according to his orders.

Just then, an unexpected change occurred.

Just as the Japanese troops were all moving to the left, preparing to resist the Eighth Route Army's surprise attack from the right.

Suddenly, there was a roar of artillery fire in the valley on the left.

However, it was different from the gunfire suppression they had encountered on the left before.

Now, the entire Japanese brigade is facing attacks from heavy weapons such as mortars and grenade launchers!

In an instant, countless flames poured out from the valley on the left.

Before the Japanese could react, all the flames had already poured down on them.

"Damn it!" The captain looked horrified.

Many Japanese soldiers didn't even have time to react.

Then, they were ruthlessly covered by the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army!

In just five minutes, the Japanese troops suffered heavy losses!

……

It is obvious that Cao Geng's tactics were successful.

After five minutes, a squad of Japanese soldiers suffered heavy casualties, losing about 40% of their troops!

At this time, the little devils were in a panic and hadn't even recovered yet...

Another two minutes passed, and their troops had lost another 20% of their strength!

"Damn it." At this time, some smarter Japanese soldiers realized that they had fallen into the trap set by the Eighth Route Army.

They immediately started shouting in anger.

The suppression of fire from the guns on the right was intended to force their large Japanese army to gather in the valley on the left for intensive reorganization!

At this moment, the heavy firepower on the left side of the Eighth Route Army was fully open, and their losses were naturally heavy.

Even so, even if the wise among the Japanese fully understood it, there was nothing they could do.

Being caught by surprise, they were unable to mount an effective counterattack because the enemy's firepower was too fierce.

Moreover, they also knew that Cao Geng and his soldiers from the Third Battalion of the New First Regiment would not give them much time to react.

Then, the Japanese soldiers discovered in despair.

The next moment, the mortar and grenade launcher fire had just stopped, and grenades were thrown down from the valley like hail...

Obviously, after the heavy weapons were used up, Cao Geng did not intend to give the Japanese soldiers in this brigade a chance to breathe!

In an instant, the Japanese army, which had already suffered heavy losses, was like paper in the face of the rain of grenades, and kept falling and sacrificing.

Soon, when Cao Geng's troops stopped raining grenades for a while, the Japanese were left with only 30% of their original strength...

Compared with the zero casualties of Cao Geng's troops, the situation of the Japanese devils in this battalion was extremely miserable.

At this time, the number of Japanese troops was almost the same as that of the soldiers of Cao Geng's Third Battalion.

Immediately afterwards, before the Japanese army could catch their breath.

In the valleys on both sides.

All the soldiers of Cao Geng's Third Battalion, following Cao Geng's orders, held their guns and knives, ready to engage in a head-on confrontation with the remaining Japanese troops!

"Charge!" The soldiers of the Third Battalion were in high spirits, like hungry wolves meeting lambs. They roared loudly and rushed towards the Japanese army waving their swords.

They used heavy weapons from the beginning, determined to fight to the death.

The Japanese army's morale had long been broken by the continuous bombing of the Eighth Route Army, and their main force had been exhausted by Cao Geng's firepower.

The remaining soldiers had lost their chance of survival under the repeated attacks of the soldiers from the third battalion...

The once arrogant Japanese captain had long been reduced to pieces under a round of fire suppression.

In this way, Cao Geng's Third Battalion won the victory in front of the entire Japanese army!

And it was a complete victory!
