Returning to the command center, the Second Battalion had wiped out more than 300 Japanese ambushed.

Although he had a certain advantage in military strength and firepower, he also caught the Japanese off guard.

However, nearly 100 casualties were still killed and killed in the two companies, of which more than fifty were sacrificed directly. Especially the first and second platoons, each platoon sacrificed almost ten soldiers.

After the battle was resolved, the two companies immediately divided their troops, drove the way with machine guns, and rushed to the two wings.

The three infantry companies arranged on both wings were immediately executed after receiving the order from Wang Ping to shrink his troops and insist on the spot.

But the Japanese seemed to be in a state of unreasonable and saw that the Eighth Route Army was suppressed and attacked by themselves and began to shrink its forces, without saying a word, they directly ordered the troops to start a counterattack, wanting to kill the mountain where the Eighth Route Army was hiding and turn defeat into victory.

At this time, the alive Japanese officer also made a fatal mistake: he trusted the combat effectiveness of his new recruits too much.

Although these recruits are becoming more and more adaptable to the battlefield, their ability to withstand is still not comparable to that of veterans.

First, four mortar shells were smashed down, and instantly blew up a dozen screaming Japanese, and directly flipped the three Japanese into minced meat.

Next, during their attack, the Eighth Route Army killed more than a dozen people in several rounds of gunfire.

The recruits' fighting will that had just been cheered up suddenly disappeared, and they were once again scared of the battlefield.

Especially the minced meat and broken arms scattered around them, which further aggravated their inner fear and made them realize the cruelty of the battlefield.

At this time, another shell was smashed down with a scream. Seeing the power of the shell, the Japanese all lay on the ground this time. But seven or eight people were still killed and injured by the bomb, especially a wounded soldier with a broken thigh. While screaming heart-wrenchingly, he dragged his bloody legs and crawled away on the ground, leaving behind blood stains covered with minced meat for the day, which was particularly cunning.

The Japanese officers had already reacted at this time and knew that it was impossible to take over the former Eighth Route Army in an attack, even if they fought harder and worsened.

Therefore, they immediately ordered their subordinates not to rush directly to the ridge, but to shoot and kill the Eighth Route Army by accurately shooting. While crawling forward, approaching the Eighth Route Army little by little, reducing casualties.

At this time, the squadron leader who only contacted the signal flag did not know that the central army where the squadron leader was located had already finished amid a dense explosion.

That's not all. The seventy or eighty Eighth Route Army soldiers holding machine guns and crookedly were like a sharp blade, directly inserted into their backs.

On the road two kilometers away from the ambush battlefield, there were more than 260 Japanese left.

The captain strengthened his artillery, heavy machine gunners, and even rifle crooked machine gunners and grenade gunners, all of whom were dead.

In order not to affect the combat effectiveness of the marching and troops, the squadron leader led the team to send the extra heavy equipment to the large cart behind.

At this moment, the ambush of the Independence Regiment began.

"Baga, the cunning Eighth Route Army actually gave up ambushing us and directly ambushing our follow-up troops!" The squadron leader frowned and said to himself with disbelief.

Soon, the communications soldier rushed over and reported, "Captain, the captain urgently called, and asked us to return to the rescue immediately and attack the Eighth Route Army ambush troops from the flank!"

"The Eighth Route Army is indeed going to ambush our subsequent main force!" said the squadron leader with a calm face.

However, those who are familiar with the squadron leader will see that although the expression on the squadron leader’s face is ugly, when he says this, he will definitely hear a little bit of gratitude if he is careful.

After all, I only have one reinforcement squadron in my hand. If the Eighth Route Army chooses to ambush it, even if the subsequent main force can reinforce it in time, I will suffer heavy losses. If I am not lucky, it is possible that I will be completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army here.

Now it is different to reinforce the subsequent troops without any damage. Because when reinforcements are made, the rhythm of the battlefield is controlled by one's own hands. I cannot guarantee anything else, the squadron leader can still guarantee the casualties of the troops, especially the casualties of the Imperial Army.

Thinking of this, the squadron leader immediately ordered: "According to the squadron leader's order, the back team will become the front team, the front team will become the back team, and the squadron leader will be reinforced immediately! The Third Company of the Imperial Army stayed, guarding the materials on the spot, and implementing them immediately!"

As soon as nearly five hundred Japanese and puppet troops received the order, they began to march quickly and rush back.

At this time, Zeng Quan led the Third Battalion and rushed to a distance of 500 meters behind them, because there was a sharp turn on the road here, and the Japanese and puppet troops who were quickly returning to the aid did not show the Third Battalion on the other side of the bend.

"Quickly, carry the sandbags we had prepared long ago to pile up the bunker. Time is limited, so you can only use such bunker!" Chief of Staff Zeng Quan shouted as soon as he rushed to the highway.

It turned out that when Zeng Quan received the attack on the Japanese army, he was considering how to complete the task.

Faced with the attack of the Japanese and puppet troops, the Third Battalion must have a strong enough position to block them at the minimum cost. However, the Japanese may have left the preparation time for the Third Battalion for two minutes. It is almost impossible to dig out a trench in two minutes.

After thinking about it, Zeng Quan finally thought of preparing sandbags filled with soil in advance. Two people and one sandbag, all three battalions added up to three hundred sandbags filled with soil.

Four bags of mud were built up to build up bunkers, and three hundred sandbags could build up a bunker with a width of over 40 meters in less than a minute, enough to block a position on the road.

At that time, one company will be guarding behind the bunker, and two companies will occupy the hills on both sides of the highway. No matter how powerful the Japanese and puppet troops are, they will not be able to break through the layers of blocking of the three infantry companies in a short period of time!

Therefore, when the Japanese and puppet troops turned the corner, a bunker piled up with sandbags directly blocked them.

Behind the sandbag bunker, a row of Eighth Route Army troops were lying down, and dozens of black gun barrels stretched out from behind the bunker, and the muzzle was aimed at the Japanese and puppet troops who were rushing over.

Because the Japanese and puppet troops had already rushed to a hundred meters in front of the Third Battalion when they turned the corner, as soon as they appeared, rows of bullets were shot at them in rows of black holes.

"Bang bang bang!" A platoon of guns rang out, and the seven or eight Imperial Army soldiers who were rushing in the front were caught off guard and were directly killed on the road.

The Imperial Army and the puppet troops behind immediately stopped, some lying subconsciously on the ground, while others hid behind the stones and bushes beside the road.

"Bagaya Road, what's going on with these bunkers? There was nothing a few minutes ago?" the squadron leader asked back with an incredible look on his face.

"It must be the Eighth Route Army!" the deputy captain next to him replied.

"I know it's the Eighth Route Army. What I asked was, how did the Eighth Route Army do it? It will be built into a line of defense in a few minutes!" The squadron leader frowned and asked with a calm face.

Seeing his subordinates shook their heads and continued to order: "No matter what, the captain is being attacked by the Eighth Route Army. No matter how the Eighth Route Army built this line of defense, we must break through it and reinforce the captain!"
