Chapter 600 Just give up when you’re ready
Seeing the puppet troops retreat, Hamigu and others were extremely excited.
Originally, they did not have much hope for this battle, thinking that it would be impossible for the dozens of people in the distant mountains to launch a successful sneak attack.
However, they did not expect that not only did Yuan Shuai and his men succeed in the sneak attack, they even used artillery to launch a fierce attack on the puppet army's positions, plus the artillery on their side.
The soldiers in the puppet army position suffered heavy casualties and turned around to retreat.
"Damn it, charge forward! Artillery, keep providing cover, keep providing cover!"
Hami melon did not miss the opportunity. He roared and charged forward with more than a hundred of his men.
Wang Shuncheng's artillery continued to bombard the puppet army's positions to cover Hamigu's men's charge.
The retreating puppet troops were in disarray. During the retreat, there was no one to command the direction and people were retreating everywhere.
But at the same time, many puppet troops actually ran towards the direction of the puppet artillery.
"Damn it! The puppet troops are retreating towards us!"
"Boss, puppet troops are coming towards us from three directions!"
"Divide the artillery into three directions and continue to use incendiary bombs! Everyone else go outside to defend!"
When Yuan Shuai heard the voice, he quickly gave orders.
The artillery quickly adjusted the two mortars to bombard the left and right wings, leaving the two infantry guns to continue bombarding the front.
The remaining soldiers quickly rushed outside in three directions to defend.
The bombardment of artillery shells and the firing of machine guns immediately stopped the puppet troops rushing towards the artillery camp.
These puppet troops quickly changed direction and retreated from both wings.
After a while, no more puppet troops rushed here.
Hamigua and others have also arrived here with their team.
"Hahaha, Boss Yuan Shuai, you are so amazing. With just a few dozen people, you actually destroyed the puppet army's lair and even took down the puppet army's artillery camp. I am really impressed!"
Hami melon gave Yuan Shuai a thumbs up.
The eyes of others were full of admiration.
"Don't talk too much. There are a lot of shells in the ammunition depot. Over there is a stable with dozens of mules and horses. Hurry up and move the shells away. If you can't move them away, blow up all of them!"
"What? Load the shells! We finally captured the puppet army's position. We should take advantage of the opportunity to move forward and try to get to the prisoner-of-war camp as soon as possible!"
Hami melon immediately retorted.
"Are you going to the prisoner-of-war camp to die? We have captured this place, but it is only a puppet army camp. The Japanese will surely come to support us soon. By then, we don't know how many Japanese we will have to face. If we move quickly, what will we do if we encounter a large Japanese force? With only these firepower in your hands, without the firepower support of artillery shells, you can only go to die!"
"I……"
Hami melon's face turned red with embarrassment.
Thinking that he had no choice but to retreat after being bombed by artillery shells before, he knew that facing the large force of puppet troops and devils, he would have no artillery support and could only be chased and beaten.
"What are you looking at? This is an order. We agreed before that you must obey my orders here!"
"Damn it, load the shells quickly!"
There was nothing Hami melon could do, since they had an agreement in place before.
Fortunately, there are more than fifty mules and horses here, and one mule can carry four boxes of artillery shells.
More than fifty mules and horses loaded more than 200 boxes at a time.
A box can hold 5 infantry gun shells, or 3 mortar shells.
There were more than 200 boxes, containing a total of more than 500 infantry gun shells and more than mortar shells.
At the same time, Wang Shuncheng and his dozen mules and horses also rushed here to load artillery shells, and also loaded several boxes of grenades back with them.
As for bullets and food, they had no control over them.
After all, there were limited mules and horses, so we could only load as many shells and grenades as possible.
Artillery shells can be used for long-range bombing, and grenades can be used to create more minefields.
When leaving, Yuan Shuai did not blow up the ammunition depot immediately, but instead set a booby trap at the door of the ammunition depot, and the booby trap line was connected to the grenade box inside the ammunition box.
Sure enough, the Japanese in the distance heard the intense noise here and quickly called to inquire.
Unfortunately, the puppet army’s headquarters was bombed and the Japanese were unable to contact us for a while.
The Japs could only dispatch a small team of Japs and a company of puppet troops to rush here quickly.
On the way, seeing the retreating puppet troops, the Japanese squad leader immediately opened fire at them, killing two of them on the spot, and then shouted to all the retreating puppet troops to turn around.
The defeated puppet troops were all cowards, even though the Japanese only had a small team of more than 50 people.
There were still several hundred defeated puppet troops, but they still did not dare to resist. Instead, they turned around and helped the Japanese to charge forward.
Soon, this team of several hundred people arrived at the puppet army base camp.
The fire here in the base camp is still burning.
The devil was so angry that he gritted his teeth and cursed.
Many houses have been burned down, and there is no point in putting out the fire now.
The Japanese squad leader had no choice but to rush to the artillery camp with his men.
Hundreds of people quickly rushed to the artillery position.
Seeing that the infantry guns and mortars were gone, a puppet army company commander quickly led his men straight to the ammunition depot.
When the ammunition depot was pushed open, the booby trap was pulled.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
The grenades in the grenade box exploded, and then all the remaining shells in the ammunition depot exploded.
The entire artillery camp, even the area more than a hundred meters outside the camp, was filled with flames of explosions.
The entire Japanese squad, as well as all the puppet troops, were engulfed in the flames of the explosion.
At this time, Yuan Shuai had already led his team to retreat a long distance.
Hearing the explosion, everyone turned around suddenly.
Looking at the night sky in the distance that was illuminated red by the flames of the explosion, everyone laughed happily.
The British troops were even happier.
"It exploded, it exploded, it finally exploded!"
"I thought it was all in vain! It always explodes!"
"Look carefully, the entire artillery camp must have been blown to ashes!"
"I just don't know how many puppet troops have come this time!"
"No matter how many come, judging by the noise, any Japanese or puppet troops that enter the artillery camp will definitely not survive!"
"Fortunately, we didn't continue crossing, otherwise, we would definitely run into these puppet soldiers and devils!"
In addition to being excited, all the British troops were secretly glad that they had obeyed Marshal Yuan's orders and did not continue to infiltrate, but withdrew with the artillery shells.
However, Wang Shuncheng and the others were somewhat unwilling to accept their happiness.
"Alas, what a pity, so many shells are gone just like that!"
"It would be nice if we had more mules and horses. At least we could bring more back!"
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and go this way!"
Yuan Shuai did not return along the same route, but changed direction.
After all, he has guys like Hami melon on his team.
These shells must not be placed together with the place where he buried the weapons and ammunition before.
Otherwise, if this Hami melon guy comes with people to collect the ammunition in the future, he will take away their previous spoils.
Sure enough, Hami melon saw that the route was wrong and said quickly.
"Boss Yuan Shuai, have we taken the wrong road? This is not the way we came here before!"
