Chapter 164 The Japanese regiment suffered more than half its losses.
The glint of light from Sato Kino wielding his sword also caught the attention of the simple-minded girl. She knew Bai Luo had been searching for this Japanese officer.
Upon seeing this Japanese soldier, he pulled the trigger of his Type 191 assault rifle without saying a word.
But the first shot missed, hitting the messenger next to Sato Kino instead.
However, it startled Sato Kinjo, who thought that the terrifying storm of bullets was sweeping towards him.
They breathed a sigh of relief after discovering it was just a stray bullet.
However, he unconsciously quickened his pace again.
The silly girl wasn't discouraged when she missed her first shot, and she kept pulling the trigger, firing one shot after another at Sato Kino's position.
However, the Japanese soldiers were positioned too densely, and most of the bullets were blocked by the Japanese soldiers behind the battalion commander.
After seven shots, the 191 assault rifle in Silly Girl's hand was bolt held shut and she was just about to change the magazine when Silly Bear dragged Bai Luo's Barrett sniper rifle over.
When the silly girl saw this, she gave a simple, honest smile.
He took the Barrett that the silly bear had dragged over, pulled the bolt, and loaded it.
Then he stood up, raised his Barrett rifle, and fired five shots at the Japanese battalion commander several hundred meters away.
"Bang bang bang bang bang."
The deafening roar of the Barrett rifle echoed across the entire battlefield, briefly drowning out the Gatling gun fire from Bai Luo behind them.
Bai Luo was also startled by the sudden gunshot. Looking down, he saw that it was Sha Niu who was firing the gun.
Meanwhile, the Japanese battalion commander below noticed soldiers falling behind him and realized that what he had seen earlier were not stray bullets, but rather Red Army snipers targeting him.
But he doesn't dare stop to look for cover now.
They could only hunch over and run quickly down the mountain under the escort of the surrounding Japanese soldiers.
At the same time, he kept glancing behind him out of the corner of his eye.
After six of his subordinates fell in succession, and finally no more soldiers fell, Sato Kino silently breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought to himself that he must have been beyond the opponent's firing range.
But just then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the bodies of two Japanese soldiers behind him suddenly explode.
Before the Japanese battalion commander could react, he felt as if he had been violently struck in the back with a sledgehammer.
Then came the second strike, the third strike, and so on...
When the Japanese battalion commander landed, only his head remained on the ground.
This terrifying scene terrified the Japanese soldiers who had been surrounding the battalion commander, causing them to scatter in all directions.
Stay away from this terrifying place, for fear that you might also be blown to pieces.
After the Japanese soldiers withdrew from the battlefield, Bai Luo also stopped firing.
In just a short while, Bai Luo fired nearly 3000 bullets, which is equivalent to half of the ammunition reserve of Bai Luo's cat car. There is a storage box under the back seat of the cat car that can hold 10,000 bullets.
（6000发12,7毫米子弹体积是0.2m?0?6，重0.74吨。猫猫突击车最大载重1吨，白洛这辆2最大载重2吨，因为有系统。）
In less than a minute, the Japanese battalion had lost three-quarters of its troops.
Of the nearly 1300 Japanese soldiers, fewer than 400 escaped the battlefield.
The Red Army soldiers on the first line of defense turned pale at the sight of the Japanese soldiers lying in disarray before them.
They all turned to look back at the high ground behind them, but what they were thinking was anyone's guess.
Li Yilong's eyebrows twitched as he watched. Even though he had witnessed it once before, he was still terrified and shocked by the power of the machine gun in Bai Luo's car.
This isn't a machine gun; it's a battlefield meat grinder.
Meanwhile, Sakata Tetsuya ran out of the command post the moment the Gatling gun roared.
As soon as I raised my binoculars, I saw a line of bullets spraying out from the high ground opposite.
Sakata Tetsuya had never even heard of a weapon with such a terrifying rate of fire, let alone seen one.
The soldiers of the second battalion that he himself had sent out became more vulnerable than chicks the moment they encountered this terrifying hail of bullets.
He was instantly reduced to a bloody mist, and from his angle, the entire battlefield was enveloped in a red fog.
When the gunfire from the other side stopped, Tetsuya Sakata put down his binoculars with a serious expression.
He turned to his adjutant, who was facing the battlefield with a look of terror on his face, and angrily rebuked him.
"You idiot! You're scared by this kind of scene? Do you even deserve to be an officer of the Empire?"
Pu Youji was startled back to his senses by Sakata Tetsu's angry rebuke. His face pale, he spoke to Sakata Tetsu.
"I'm sorry, Commander. I have disgraced the Empire."
After saying that, he bowed at a 90-degree angle.
Sakata Tetsuya had no time to continue reprimanding his adjutant.
"Immediately send a telegram to the brigade commander, informing him in detail of the situation here and the losses, and request tactical guidance."
"Hi."
Upon receiving the order, Puyou Ji'er immediately returned to the temporary command post and sent a telegram to the brigade headquarters.
With his regiment already suffering more than half its casualties, Sakata Tetsuya had no choice but to temporarily halt his attack on the Yunling position.
They awaited the brigade commander's reply. As for the idea of capturing the Red Party's forward positions at noon, it had already vanished from Sakata Tetsu's mind.
Silence fell over the battlefield once again.
At this moment, Li Yilong had reached the high ground at the rear. Looking down at the battlefield from this angle, Li Yilong truly understood the terror of this weapon.
Below, there were severed limbs and broken arms of Japanese soldiers everywhere, and the entire battlefield was stained red with their blood.
The scene stood in stark contrast to the surrounding yellow earth, causing Li Yilong to involuntarily swallow hard.
But seeing the mountain of spent bullet casings piled up next to Bai Luo's little jeep, he felt a pang of heartache.
He thought to himself, "Why doesn't this spendthrift save his strength? He could just let us fight the ones nearby."
Suddenly, Li Yilong looked at the mountain of spent shell casings as if he had thought of something.
"Xiao Luo, do you have any bullets left in your gun?"
As Li Yilong spoke, he quickly walked to the cat-themed assault vehicle to inspect it.
When they discovered that there was nothing left in the back seat of the car except for a pile of spent shell casings, a horse's leg, and a bundle, they felt a chill run down their spines.
In just one morning, Bai Luo had already used up all his bullets?
Just as Li Yilong's heart was growing colder and colder.
Bai Luo walked to the back seat, lifted the seat, and revealed the hidden space under the cat car.
Li Yilong quickly peeked out.
This sight was quite significant; Li Yilong, who had initially looked somewhat bitter, instantly put on a smiling face.
He realized that this car not only looked like a boat, but the way it carried things was also similar to a boat.
There was a fairly large space under the seat, filled with neatly linked bullets.
Li Yilong roughly estimated that there were about four or five thousand rounds.
Actually, there weren't that many to begin with, but Bai Luo exchanged another 3000 and distributed them.
Just after Bai Luo cured Li Yilong's fear of insufficient firepower, the telegram from the Japanese brigade was delivered to Sakata Tetsuya.
The telegram began with a reprimand of Sakata Tetsuya, whom he had anticipated and was even prepared to be dismissed and sent back to his post.
However, the Japanese brigade commander did not issue this order. Instead, he sent an infantry battalion and an artillery company of Japanese soldiers from Yuan City to provide support.
It is expected to take 2 hours to arrive, and bombers have been arranged to stand by at the Japanese-occupied city airport.
He demanded that Sakata Tetsu eliminate the Red Party garrison in Yunling at all costs and seize the terrifyingly fast-firing weapon from the Red Party, returning it to Yuan City.
Upon seeing this order, Sakata Tetsu breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that the reason he had suffered such heavy losses was entirely due to the fact that the artillery positions had been ambushed by the enemy's mysterious weapon at the beginning.
He certainly won't make the same mistake again this time.
