Another hour had passed when the sky turned upside down.
The snow finally stopped.
After a busy morning, all the villagers of Lower Groove Village finally moved to a safe area.
Zhang Guowei also led the 6th Company and 9th Company, a total of more than 160 soldiers, and quietly laid an ambush near the road ten miles away from the village entrance.
This road was the only main road in the vicinity, and it was also the only way to Lower Groove Village.
Under the leadership of Zhang Guowei, not only did they set up a large number of mines on the road, but they also buried countless booby traps in the mountains on both sides.
Moreover, Zhang Guowei also reorganized the two companies.
According to the different forms of light, heavy, long and close firepower output, the machine gun group, artillery platoon, and assault team were re-established.
Among them, the first machine gun group had six MG-42 heavy machine guns as the main firepower output point.
The 1st and 2nd Assault Teams, with 6 light machine guns, 6 crooked guns, and 10 Thomas submachine guns, supported from the side.
The second and third machine gun teams were hiding in the forest and high hills on the flanks under the cover of the other assault team members.
A total of four MG-42 heavy machine guns, six Ukrainian heavy machine guns, five crooked guns, more than 20 Thomas, ten rocket launchers, and several rifles surrounded the mountain road that was more than a kilometer in width!
With so many light and heavy firepower attacks, any Japanese that entered the ambush circle would definitely be unable to escape, no matter how many there were!
It could really be said that he would kill anyone who stood in his way!
Moreover, there were ten 82mm mortars aimed at the sky behind the frontal ambush point!
After this round of bombardment, even if Amaterasu came, he would have to go back to his hometown with his tail between his legs.
Zhang Guowei, who had never commanded a team with such luxurious equipment in battle, was so excited that it was difficult to describe it.
Even though he was lying in the cold snow, the blood in his body was almost boiling because of the burning fighting spirit.
He couldn't wait for the Japanese to arrive.
Time slowly passed as everyone waited with surging emotions.
Another hour passed.
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
Suddenly, the scout that had been sent out earlier hurriedly came back from the other side of the hill.
One of the leaders went straight to Zhang Guowei and saluted,
"Company Commander Zhang, we've spotted an enemy troop in front of us. There are more than 500 soldiers, and more than half of them are puppet soldiers. They're driving five trucks and five motorcycles!”
Hearing this, Zhang Guowei's expression brightened.
"Damn it, it's finally here!”
"Pass on my order! All troops, don't act rashly. Even if the Japanese come in front of you, don't shoot! When the main force has completely entered the ambush zone, then give them a good beating!”
"Yes, sir!"
The soldier left with a few scouts and quickly relayed the order to the flank.
Not long after, the troops lying in ambush on the flank received the order.
At the end of the mountain road in the distance, a mechanical roar could be heard.
Looking over again, they saw three-wheeled Japanese cars swaying over the uneven road.
Behind them were five military trucks full of Japanese soldiers.
As they approached, a large number of Japanese soldiers and hundreds of puppet soldiers in yellow military uniforms appeared in everyone's field of vision.
Zhang Guowei hid behind a big rock on the mountainside. His head and body were covered with white snow, and his entire body was half lying in the snow.
When he saw the ghost, he immediately ordered in a low voice,"
"Be careful and don't shoot! Release the enemy!"
The soldiers behind him did not speak or nod. They only lowered their bodies even lower in the snow.
The Independent Regiment was once the main force. Although the soldiers below were not all elites, they were still quite well-trained.
Most of them had rich combat experience and good mental fortitude.
Under their influence, even the dozens of laborers who had just been recruited yesterday did not shoot randomly. They hid very well.
This was also thanks to the heavy snow that had accumulated on the mountain for a day.
In the same place, let alone one person lying on the ground, even if two people were stacked on top of each other, it would be difficult to notice them if one did not look carefully.
Therefore, when the Japanese convoy reached the center of the ambush circle, which was near the minefield that everyone had buried, the Japanese did not notice anything unusual.
However, as the main force moved from the flat forest all the way to the deep mountains.
The commander of the Japanese was not stupid. He was very alert and stopped the troops. Then, he pulled out a portion of the puppet troops from behind and walked at the front to act as the vanguard.
He also sent out a portion of the puppet troops to the mountains on both sides to prevent the enemy from ambushing them.
Although this group of unlucky fools complained endlessly, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk past the convoy carefully.
After that, the entire team continued to move forward.
Two minutes later, nearly one-third of the Japanese army had already entered the minefield.
This included the three-wheeled motorcycle and the military truck.
At a certain moment, a puppet soldier who was walking at the front of the formation was walking in the snow. Suddenly, he felt as if he had tripped over something.
It felt like he had kicked a dead branch. It was very light.
However, the snow here was too thick. No one could see what was buried under the snow, so the puppet soldier did not take it seriously.
However, in the next second, something seemed to bulge out of the snow on both sides of the road.
What followed was an earth-shattering explosion!
