Devil's Army

Chapter 2130 Medical Team Attacked

When the Japanese army's daytime offensive was thwarted, the battalion commander came up with another opportunistic trick: to launch a surprise attack on the Second Company's position.

He selected 80 experienced soldiers from the remaining troops to form a commando team, carrying a large number of machine guns and grenades, and quietly climbed up the cliff from the side slope.

The Japanese commandos sometimes lay still, sometimes climbed quickly, and somehow managed to evade the vigilant sentries of the Second Company.

When the sentries of the Second Company spotted the Japanese assault team, the Japanese were already within arm's reach.

A series of bursts of fire from the Japanese assault team quickly took down the sentries of the Second Company.

The Japanese troops continued forward and suddenly discovered a large cavern with guards from the devil's army at the entrance.

The Japanese assault captain was overjoyed, never expecting that this sneak attack would wipe out the command post of the devilish unit.

He directed his assault team to attack from both flanks, while he led a squad of assault men to attack from the front, unleashing a fierce barrage of fire at the devilish guards at the cave entrance.

The two guards at the entrance of the cave could not withstand the fierce firepower of the Japanese assault team and fell one after another in pools of blood.

Hearing the intense gunfire from the cave, the 1st Company Commander of the 2nd Company outside immediately dispatched reinforcements. However, the Japanese forces on the front launched a strong attack, tying down their troops.

After the Japanese commando team knocked down the devilish guards at the entrance of the cave, two commandos rushed into the cave.

A series of gunshots rang out from inside the cave, and two assault team members who rushed into the cave were also taken down.

The assault team members outside the cave threw several grenades into the cave.

Before the smoke from the grenade explosion had even cleared, two assault team members rushed to the cave entrance and began firing fiercely into the cave.

Sparse gunfire could also be heard from inside the cave.

Then the Japanese commando team rushed into the cave, where the sounds of bayonets piercing flesh and women crying could be heard.

In their haste, the first and second companies rushed to the outside of the cave and engaged in fierce fighting with the Japanese assault team outside.

Because some of the troops on the main position were transferred to support the cave, the firepower on the main position was significantly reduced.

Under the relentless attacks of the Japanese army, the defensive line could be breached at any moment.

Upon hearing that the gunfire inside the cave had ceased, the second company commander, with tears in his eyes, ordered his troops to retreat in order to prevent them from being surrounded by the Japanese army.

The soldiers of the First and Second Companies, who were blocking the Japanese army on the front line, also took turns covering each other's retreat upon hearing the order.

After the first and second companies of soldiers withdrew, the Japanese troops on the front occupied the canyon position.

When they arrived at the cave entrance and met up with the assault team, the fighting inside the cave had already stopped.

"Mr. Matsushima, did you wipe out the command post of the devilish army?" the Japanese battalion commander asked, pointing to the cave.

"Captain Jinpu, I'm ashamed to say that this is not the command post of the Devil Force, but one of its medical stations."

Captain Jinpu then entered the cave, where he saw dozens of wounded soldiers lying haphazardly.

Three female nurses lay disheveled in the cave, their deaths gruesome, suggesting they had suffered considerable torment before their demise.

Because the medical station was attacked by the Japanese army, three nurses and one doctor in his medical team were killed. This was a significant loss to their battalion's medical capabilities. He didn't know how to explain it to the battalion commander.

The Japanese troops broke through the canyon position of the Second Company, and what followed was a river valley beach.

The area was flat and easy to navigate, making it ideal for large-scale Japanese troop movements. With fewer than two companies of soldiers, they were simply no match for them.

Upon hearing that the canyon position had fallen, the battalion commander of the fourth battalion had ordered them to retreat into Wangqing County, hold their ground, and await reinforcements.
