Chapter 63: Encounter Battle

  "Form a ladder-shaped formation, dig hidden trenches here, disperse quickly and act." With Liu He's order, the team members started to take action, and for a while, dust flew everywhere on this hillside.

  There's no way, this is a small hillside, on one side of the hillside there's a cliff, below which is a stream, and on the other side of the hillside is an even steeper slope, obviously it's very difficult for people to climb up. Only this place is suitable for ambushes, when the devils are climbing up, they can't see the hidden pits above, but this will also block some people's footsteps, so people have to disperse and leave a way out for retreating soldiers.

  "Bang, bang, boom." Now the retreating soldiers can be seen in the distance, they are retreating while counterattacking. Perhaps the top of this hill is their best place to counterattack, so Liu He chose this halfway point. When Liu He and his men start fighting, those retreating soldiers will also catch their breath and launch a counterattack against the devils.

  "Hurry up, withdraw, second company, you get ready to block, we will go to the top of that small hill to block." From far away, the commander's voice had already come over, this really was guessed correctly by Liu He, they were going to go to the top of the hill to block, and the people in front who were covering the main force withdrawing up the hill would not have many people able to survive, and the blocking position they set up was just below Liu He's position more than 50 meters away.

  "Pass the word down, tell them to hurry up and not to stop." "Pass the word down, pass the word down..." For a moment, the team members quietly passed on Liu He's command.

  As the retreating soldiers approached within thirty meters of them, Liu He and his men were already visible. Naturally, they hesitated in their hearts, wondering where this group came from. Just as they hesitated, a voice spoke up from the front, "You continue to advance, don't stop, hurry up, don't affect our fight against the devils."

  "Brothers, quickly, let's counterattack on that hill!" The commander saw that there was still a troop here and naturally his voice grew louder.

  "Hurry up, hurry up." The soldiers also shouted along, and if someone with a keen eye looked closely, they would discover that the retreating soldiers had a somewhat orderly formation on this section of the route. Some even jumped up, naturally to avoid the comrades crouching below.

  "Boom, boom." Suddenly, some shell bursts appeared in front of their hiding spot, which was naturally the grenade launcher. "Tell your comrades who are blocking to retreat quickly and don't block anywhere else, give us a clear line of sight for blocking."

  "Huang Lian Chang, you'd better retreat too, someone is helping to block them." For a moment, the sound of this sentence was continuous. Liu He couldn't help but smile wryly for a moment. Fortunately, they were facing the little devils, not many of whom could understand Chinese, and they wouldn't understand so quickly that there were still people blocking them here.

  Nature, the ambush team led by Huang Lianchang also knew about the existence of Liu He's team and quickly retreated to the mountain. Indeed, at this time, the artillery fire decreased a lot. The mortar was difficult to fire during the march, and it would only stop firing when encountering an ambush team. One danger that Liu He worried about had passed.

  As for this person, if they had a glimmer of hope to survive, their running speed would have increased significantly. Obviously, they were much faster than the retreating people in front. But what's the point of having a whole platoon? Fifty or sixty people, isn't that just asking to be decimated?

  "Big brother, I want to stay here and fight the devils with them. I'll die with the little devils." This was a soldier who had lost one leg, covered in blood, with several soldiers supporting him, clearly he didn't want to live anymore.

  "Hurry up and take him away, don't affect our operation." This sentence suddenly exploded among these soldiers, "You...". "What are you, hurry up and leave, do you want to let the little devils know we're here?"

  Although it's not nice to hear, they listened and found it made sense. Looking at the hidden pit dug by Liu He and others, it was no ordinary one. They couldn't say anything else, so they immediately helped the soldier with a broken leg hurry towards the mountain top.

  "Bang, bang", bullets occasionally hit the sides of the team members' bodies, in front and behind, but just couldn't hit their bodies, this was the benefit of the hidden trenches they dug.

  "Nani, what is this." The vanguard of the devils had already arrived at the hiding place of the team members, only thirty meters away. They saw that on the ground in front of them were drawn some marks, which was naturally a sign to show that someone existed here. When the soldiers in front passed by, the team members still exposed their heads, but when they were about to pass by, they used some coverings to conceal their heads as well. This is also the reason why the devils are puzzled.

  Moreover, at this place, the devils' bullets in their guns were all used up, so they needed to reload and gather here before launching an attack. At that time, because the retreating soldiers knew there was a hidden troop here, they didn't dare turn back to shoot, but instead kept climbing up the mountain. Why hadn't they opened fire yet?

  These soldiers also hastened, now they have formed a line of battle and are preparing to counterattack, now they are in a favorable terrain.

  "Bang", "bang bang bang..." With a single order from Liu He, the team members instantly removed the coverings on their heads and pulled out their guns from the soil in front of them. The Japanese devils who were close by were done for. At such a close distance, the team members didn't even need to aim, they could just shoot and hit the enemy's head. The team members in the back only needed to slightly aim, which was slightly slower than the ones in the front, but this really didn't affect anything.

  Because the devils are gathering together to tidy up their guns and prepare for a charge.

  "This, this is too accurate!" An officer-like figure preparing to ambush at the top of the mountain exclaimed in surprise, and some soldiers didn't say a word, but their mouths were also wide open. This was really too accurate. At first, they thought that little devil's marksmanship was very good, but compared to the troops lying in ambush in front of them, it was really rubbish. Moreover, there were no heavy firearms in their troops, all of which were Type 38 rifles. At close range, even one shot could hit two people.

  "Come on, brothers! We're not cowards either!" The officer thought that if he didn't open fire again, they might not even get a sip of soup, so it's better to charge back.

  This sentence really inspired all the soldiers, seeing that the soldiers in front of them had killed more than five devils each, and they felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts. They had gone through such intense battles, but the number of devils they had killed was limited, didn't it really seem like they were cowards? Especially since the troops in front only had rifles, and even those were small devil rifles, yet they had achieved such good results.

  And this is exactly what Liu He was happy to see, because the team members have started using their second guns, which were also prepared for not reloading. At this time, there may be casualties.
