Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

Chapter 375: Minefield Shows Off Its Power

The militiamen were too familiar with this area, and the Japanese could not catch them at all. In addition, due to the minefields laid out, the militiamen suffered little loss, but the Japanese suffered a lot of casualties.

Relying on their familiarity with the terrain, Ma Xiaoxi and a dozen of his men dared to provoke hundreds of Japanese soldiers. It has to be said that they were really brave.

"Platoon leader, we just killed dozens of devils and puppet soldiers."

Halfway up the Vulture Mountain, a militia soldier said excitedly.

They all noticed the situation on the Japanese side. Every time the grenades hanging on the grass and trees exploded, at least one or two Japanese died.

It was the first time they had fought the Japanese at such close range and had achieved such an effect, which made them very excited.

Killing the Japanese was what every soldier who joined the militia company wanted to do, but the main regiment was too strong, so they had no chance at all.

Now that the Japanese have entered the village, it is finally their turn to deal with this kind of thing.

"Platoon leader, the Japanese seem to have stopped chasing us." The militia soldier on guard suddenly noticed that something was wrong with the Japanese and immediately ran to Ma Xiaoxi and said.

The Japanese's previous action should have been to leave people behind to clean up the bodies and treat the wounded, but this time they stopped chasing and everything stopped.

"Go, have a look."

After running continuously for an hour, Ma Xiaoxi felt very tired. He originally wanted to take a break, but now he really can't do it anymore.

The main reason was that the Japanese almost surrounded them several times. If he had not been smart and escaped with his men in time, they would definitely have suffered casualties or the entire platoon would have been killed.

After all, there are hundreds of Japanese soldiers, and there are only thirteen people in Ma Xiaoxi's platoon. If they are really surrounded by the Japanese soldiers, their fate will not be good. The Japanese soldiers will not be polite to them.

"Platoon leader, the Japs are really getting ready to leave."

"The Japanese must have discovered something was wrong. Let's follow them secretly and see where they go." Ma Xiaoxi said gritting his teeth.

Captain Ghana was really preparing to leave. Hundreds of them chased a dozen people for over an hour but still couldn't catch up.

The most important thing is that he found something wrong, otherwise, with his personality, he would have eliminated these Chinese.

It would have been bad enough to be bullied by the main force of the independent regiment, but he was also bullied by a dozen civilians. How could he bear it?

Ghana also discovered that these people in front of them were not regular troops at all. At most, they were a security group with very little combat experience. If it weren't for the minefield, they would have wiped out these people long ago.

On Ma Xiaoxi's side, seeing that the Japanese target was getting closer and closer to where the company commander was, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

There are two roads in the back mountain of Majia Village. Ma Xiaoxi led the Japanese soldiers into the other side before, while the company commander Ma Sanjin was guarding the path to the hiding place of the people.

Originally, Ma Xiaoxi's task was to delay time and wait for support from the regiment headquarters, but now that he has been discovered by the Japanese, his role is limited.

boom!

Anxious Ma Xiaoxi fired a shot into the air, trying to lure the Japanese over, but his action only confirmed Ghana's guess.

"Mr. Ishino, these Chinese seem to be getting anxious. Order the warriors to hurry up. There's a big beautiful girl inside!"

Ghana looked at the path more than ten meters away and was overjoyed. He quickly urged Ishino to lead the team in.

After being slapped in the face by the captain, Shi Ye no longer dared to get angry and led his team towards the path obediently.

After hearing the gunshots, Ma Sanjin immediately realized that the Japanese had really arrived.

"Brothers, prepare for battle."

The militia company of Majia Village had only about 300 people, half of whom followed the main group out, leaving only about 160 people to protect the safety of the people.

If the Japanese really broke through, the people would be in big trouble. Because of the Japanese's cruelty, the people of Majia Village would have no way to survive.

"Company Commander, the Japanese have entered the path and are about to reach the minefield. Should we attack them or not?"

Second platoon leader Ma Tiesheng reported to Ma Sanjin.

These mines were dug out by the students and they did work after all. Zhou Qianli directly ordered them to be distributed to the militiamen. However, the main force led by Gu Changfeng did not use these things.

"Don't worry, there are more devils in number. If we let a few more devils in, we can kill more."

Ma Sanjin didn't have the ability to defeat these hundreds of devils, but they could still delay them.

He had already received news from the regiment headquarters that the nearest special forces team was already heading here.

As soon as the special forces arrive, these few hundred Japanese devils will not be enough for them to kill.

In fact, Xiaowu didn't expect that they were originally on guard against the large Japanese army, but the Japanese in the mountains went to sleep, and instead something went wrong in Majia Village, so they couldn't rest and had to set out to rescue.

After more than ten minutes, when almost a squadron of Japanese soldiers had been let in, Ma Sanjin gave the signal to attack.

Immediately, Ma Tiesheng led the second row of soldiers to directly pull the fuse of the minefield.

Boom boom boom!

A series of explosions sounded among the devils, and in an instant a large number of devils were killed or injured.

The Japanese soldiers in Ishino's squadron were in a terrible situation. In order to protect the villagers, Ma Sanjin buried more than 500 distributed mines on the path.

"Bakayaloo, enemy attack!"

The old Ghanaian devil in the rear was so angry that his face was distorted. In this wave, more than a hundred of his warriors were crippled.

He didn't expect that when he came to Gaojia Town, not only would the independent regiment be difficult to deal with, but even the people in the security group would be difficult to deal with. This was troublesome.

"beat!"

At Ma Sanjin's command, more than a hundred Type 38 rifles opened fire crazily at the Japanese. The Japanese who had just survived were now completely dead.

The militia company soldiers simply have no practical combat experience, which doesn't mean they are incompetent. With so many bullets flying around, the Japanese soldiers will die anyway.

"Grenade!"

Boom boom boom!

After one round, Ma Sanjin directly ordered an evacuation.

He was well aware of the disadvantage on his side, so he left immediately after taking advantage, ignoring even the machine guns and grenade launchers on the battlefield.

"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"

Lieutenant Colonel Ghana roared and personally led his troops to pursue the militia.

Bang bang bang!

Da da da!

The Japanese's shooting skills were still very accurate, and soon more than a dozen soldiers who fell behind were killed by the Japanese.

However, the Japanese's victory ended there. Ma Sanjin led the soldiers into the dense jungle quickly.

The Japanese soldiers who were unfamiliar with the road conditions had no idea where to chase or which direction to pursue. The people were fleeing in scattered groups, and it was dark, so how could they chase them?

"Bakayarō, the Chinese don't work like samurai!"

Lieutenant Colonel Ghana drew out his ancestral samurai sword and swung it at the air to vent his anger.

"Captain, shall we continue the pursuit?"

Ishino managed to escape with his life by chance, and now he is completely obedient. It was so brutal that only dozens of people are left in his squadron.

clap clap clap!

Ghana was just worrying about where to vent his anger when Ishino's big head suddenly offered his face.

Ghana slapped him a few times without any hesitation, just to vent his anger.

"Bagayalu, what are you chasing after? It's more important to find the Chinese people."

"These Chinese are ambushing here. It's obvious that the Chinese people are hiding ahead. As long as we find them, these Chinese security groups will definitely come out."

Lieutenant Colonel Ghana, who had calmed down a little, finally understood that as long as he continued along the path, he would definitely find Chinese people. He was sure of that.
