Yamamoto Ichiki was the captain of the special forces and an excellent special forces soldier. He had always been the first to fight in the front lines.
Yamamoto and the three Vanguards took off their heavy tactical backpacks and placed them on the ground. They only carried their MP38 submachine guns, four grenades, pistols, and daggers.
They tightened their shoelaces and tidied themselves up. They took off their black leather gloves, revealing their calloused hands.
The four of them skillfully held onto the force bearing points on the cliff. Like lizards strolling, they used their hands and feet to climb up the cliff in less than a minute.
The four of them reached the top almost at the same time. Two of the top soldiers exchanged glances with each other before they reached the top of the cliff. After they reached the top of the cliff, they were afraid of being ambushed by the Eighth Route Army. They immediately rolled. At the same time, they finished squatting, holding their guns, opening the safety, and aiming.
"Left, safe."
"Right, safe."
Yamamoto Ichiki and another soldier stood in the middle of the two on the left and right, forming a cross. The four of them stood back to back and checked the top of Zhao Jiayu's cliff 360 degrees to make sure it was safe.
This was the vanguard formation invented by Yamamoto Ichiki, which was usually composed of 3-4 soldiers.
A left rifler, a right rifler, and a gunner. If there was a fourth person, they were usually responsible for increasing the firepower.
Using the submachine guns in their hands, this three-man team could fire at the same time, which was equivalent to a platoon of the Chinese army.
There were a total of twenty-nine combat teams that had raided the Eighth Route Army headquarters today. If they were fully assembled and launched in full force, the firepower of eighty-eight people would be equivalent to a regular regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
After Yamamoto Ichiki confirmed that it was safe, he made a gesture of action.
The right rifler received the order, put down his gun, and returned to the cliff. He took out a thin rope, grabbed one end, and slid the other end down.
When the special forces member who was in charge of guarding the cliff saw the rope, he quickly tied four ropes as thick as his thumb to the thin satin rope.
After the people below tied it up, they shook it, indicating that they could pull it up.
The right rifler on the cliff pulled the thin rope upward with both hands. At the end of the rope, he caught the thick rope.
He found an old tree on the cliff and secured the four ropes.
The special attack team members at the bottom of the cliff, in groups of three, climbed up the rope.
With the help of the rope, in less than two minutes, ten combat teams had arrived.
There were ten teams with a total of 30 people. They surrounded Yamamoto Ichiki and waited for the next order.
These 30 people were from the Special Forces, the most elite First Brigade. Yamamoto Ichiki saw that the First Brigade had finished assembling, and the Second Brigade was still climbing up one after another. He ordered,"This place is only four kilometers away from the Eighth Route Headquarters. Team One and Team Two will take the lead. If you find any sentries, use a silent pistol and kill them immediately. If you're exposed, cancel the operation immediately and retreat. Do you understand?”
"Understood!"
"Move out!"
The first brigade moved forward while the second brigade climbed up the rope.
Yamamoto could not be blamed for not discovering the Second Battalion's position. The tunnel that Zhou Lin dug was 90 meters away from the cliff, and it was in the backlit weeds. It was still early in the morning, so no one could see that far.
However, under the reflection of the moon, the 2nd Battalion could clearly see the special forces from the beginning of the roll to the end of the assembly.
Shen Quan used his head to push open the haystack and raised the Jieke building. Seeing the Japanese army approaching, he couldn't hold it in anymore and asked,"Political commissar, are we going to fight?"
" Listen to my gunshot, get ready-"
Zhao Gang had already seen Yamamoto Ichiki, but this was a battle of annihilation. He was not in a hurry to attack. He had to cut off the retreat of the special forces first!
He steadily lifted the 38 large lids with both hands, and his eyes looked through the ruler that he had set beforehand, aiming at the thick rope that was still climbing up.
Pa--
A gunshot echoed in the valley.
Zhao Gang accurately broke the rope at a distance of 90 meters!
The second brigade, the 17th, 18th, and 19th combat teams, who were still climbing on the rope, all fell off the cliff.
The second team each carried a backpack of more than 40 pounds. Zhao Gang hit three teams, a total of nine people. They were about to go up, and five of them fell to their deaths. The other four also suffered fractures and concussions, losing their ability to fight.
Almost at the same time that Zhao Gang opened fire, Shen Quan shouted,""Fire!"
From the afternoon until now, the 2nd Battalion, who had been holding back their anger, controlled all kinds of firearms and fired at the Japanese army.
The first and second teams of the First Brigade of the Special Attack Force, who were still holding silenced pistols, were immediately shot into a sieve.
When the other teams heard the gunshots, they did not panic. They did not have time to find cover. They directly lay on the ground and returned fire at the 2nd Battalion.
Yamamoto Ichiki had personally trained the elites, and their combat strength was astonishing.
The submachine guns were used by the assaulters, who moved with ease. They relied on their flexible understanding of the battlefield. As long as they found a spot in the 2nd Battalion that was suppressed by their comrades, they would immediately throw grenades to expand the suppression and form a battlefield cut.
The 2nd Battalion was stunned by this strategy. They aimed for a long time but could not hit anyone. They wanted to charge and fight hand-to-hand, but they were suppressed by grenades in the tunnel. There were more than 300 people against 20 people. They were helpless.
Yamamoto Ichiki didn't expect to be ambushed at 4 o'clock. Since he was attacked first, it was meaningless to advance. The leaders of the Kuomintang-Chinese army wouldn't hear the gunshot and would still be sleeping soundly.
" The operation has been exposed. Retreat!"
Zhao Gang aimed four shots at the target, but all of them missed. He thought to himself,'I'm a little powerless to hit a moving target.'
Seeing Yamamoto Ichiki's retreating gesture, he wanted to leave, so he raised his gun and aimed at the troop transport rope on the cliff again.
"You want to run? There's no way!"
With a snap, another transport rope was broken.
Zhao Gang's shot exposed his position, and he immediately summoned four or five cantaloupes grenades.
He was still lying in ambush at the downwind, so he couldn't see the battle above. However, judging from the gunshots, Yamamoto Ichiki was about to retreat as soon as the battle started.
He didn't have time to say anything and directly gave the order.
"Cavalry Company, attack!"
