Siheyuan: Shazhu's Brother Shadan

The situation over there is simple, but the situation here is more serious.

The Japanese army gradually entered the ambush circle. At the command of the county captain, a shell hit the enemy's marching path, and then shells rained down on the enemy.

The Japanese army was caught off guard by the sudden attack and was instantly thrown into disarray.

The soldiers on both sides of the road took the opportunity to launch an attack.

The bullets were fired as if they were free.

With the help of artillery fire, the Japanese devils were stunned in the first round and a small number of them were killed.

Among them, more were injured.

In the distance, the captain who was attacking the enemy with artillery fire heard such a dense flow of bullets. How much ammunition would be wasted?

Quickly order Liu Erzhuang to blow the charge!

When the charge sounds, everyone must rush forward and engage in close combat with the enemy.

The small cannon also fired three shells to provide fire support for the soldiers.

Then, the county captain rushed over with several people and fought with the enemy.

The battlefield was filled with smoke and shouts of killing.

The peasant armed forces made full use of their close combat advantages and fought a desperate battle with the Japanese army.

After a fierce battle, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties and had to retreat.

The county brigade achieved a phased victory. They seized a large number of weapons and ammunition, but their own casualties were as high as half.

But for the county brigade personnel on the scene, this was the greatest victory.

When everyone returned to the cave entrance in high spirits, they announced the battle to everyone.

In a corner not far away, the guy who was squatting stupidly and drawing circles on the ground with a twig was blinking his eyes as he listened to the group's endless boasting. Especially when he heard them describing their own fighting methods, he was so shocked that his mouth opened wide, but he couldn't say a word.

There were more than 110 people when they set out to attack the enemy, but in the end only about 70 people returned "triumphantly", and more than a dozen of them were seriously injured!

Listen to the number of enemy troops they said they "killed". It was just a small squad! You know, usually a small squad only has twelve people.

What’s even more infuriating is that not only did two or three enemies manage to escape, but these shameless guys actually had the nerve to brag about themselves here!

At this moment, even someone like Shadan, who knows nothing about fighting, couldn't help but sigh: This is simply the most ignorant fighting method and the most failed battle in the world!

I really didn't expect that these people could be so shameless and complacent and boastful!

For a moment, I just thought that this entire county brigade from top to bottom was composed of a bunch of idiots?

The county captain came over with a smile on his face and kindly asked Shadan about the conflict between him and the remaining county brigade personnel.

At this moment, I was overjoyed with the victory I had just commanded, and I was in a particularly good mood.

Faced with this little friction between them, they naturally didn't take it seriously and chose to make a big deal out of a small matter.

However, just as everyone was immersed in joy, Shadan suddenly said, "Captain of the county, you have lost half of your troops, but you are only dealing with those insignificant 12 devils. What is there to be happy about?"

As soon as the words fell, the whole place fell into dead silence. Everyone was stunned, and all their eyes were cast towards Shadan. Those hostile eyes seemed to want to eat him alive.

But this time, Shadan did not back down. Instead, he stared back without fear.

"What are you looking at! This battle was a complete failure and the charge was completely disorganized. Especially you, as the captain, how did you lead the team? It's really hard to talk about!" Shadan stood up suddenly, pointed his finger at everyone, then at the county captain, shook his head, his face full of anger, and finally sighed helplessly.

"What do you mean? Do you look down on us? If you have the guts, just rush up and fight and kill us!" Liu Erzhuang roared, his face flushed with retort.

"That is to say, why didn't you mention it when a few hundred Japs were chasing tens of thousands of Central Army troops everywhere? We only lost half of our men, but we have killed more than a dozen Japs. Isn't it a great victory?" Fugui also joined in, touching the wound on his body and arguing righteously.

Then, other people around him echoed in various comments:

"That's right……"

"you do not say……"

“We are still very powerful…”

"Uh!"

Shadan was dumbfounded by the retorts from everyone and could only stand there blankly, watching them refute him one after another without being able to get a word in.

China's average casualty ratio in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression was roughly between 3:1 and 5:1, that is, China's casualties were three to five times that of Japan.

These are the casualty ratios among soldiers.

But as a member of the war effort, members of the county brigade, also known as the Tubalu, according to incomplete statistics, required eight people to exchange for one Japanese soldier.

Therefore, with the strength of a county brigade, against a small detachment of 12 Japanese soldiers, it is basically rare that they can completely wipe out the enemy, and usually they have to pay a heavy price to repel the enemy. This is because the Japanese troops are now second-generation soldiers.

With this calculation, the people in the county brigade are still very powerful.

A small squad of Japanese soldiers had only one light machine gun and one heavy machine gun, and they could even wipe out the entire county brigade.

Not only that, this place is close to Rehe, and more than 100 Japanese soldiers once captured Rehe City!

These invaders also made extensive propaganda, resulting in the ordinary people believing that in order to kill one Japanese soldier, at least a dozen or even more lives were required.

After all, they had experienced several major battles, especially those large-scale battles, in which the army suffered the heaviest casualties, of course, with the exception of the Battle of Taierzhuang.

"You were like that in the past, but that was due to the lack of sophisticated equipment. Now that you have such excellent weapons and equipment, you still achieve such poor results. Don't you feel ashamed?" Shadan muttered softly.

Faced with the accusations of many members of the county team, even though he was just a child, he couldn't help but feel his face getting hot and had to argue with them. Otherwise, he would have been easily drowned out by the villagers' spitting.

"Little comrade, perhaps you don't have enough understanding of the cruelty of war. You only know one side of the story but not the other. This kind of sitting in a well and looking at the world is absolutely unacceptable." The county captain stepped forward, made some summary remarks, and gently stroked Shadan's head, expressing some comfort.

"Huh? Is that really the case?" Shadan expressed his doubt.

Suddenly, a gunshot alarmed everyone.
