Chapter 316 The Japanese are trying to trap us like turtles in a jar.
At this moment, they were about 400 meters behind Bellena's team.
"Baka Yalu, engineers, speed them up! They're not far ahead, we can't let those bear-nations get away."
Behind them, a Japanese lieutenant colonel was brandishing his command sword and shouting angrily.
"Hi."
The more than 30 Japanese engineers at the front of the column answered the order in unison, then took out the small flags tucked behind their waists and planted them where the bombs had been detected.
After brandishing his sword for a while, Hideo Nakajima reluctantly sheathed it again.
Hideo Nakajima glanced around.
Seeing the dense array of warning flags planted all around him, he was at a loss for words.
I even regretted encountering this mission.
He has now lost nearly 200 Imperial soldiers.
3 hours ago.
The command post at the northern fortress received an urgent telegram from a patrol team.
It is said that a group of fully armed Bear Kingdom people were discovered south of the fortress.
Moreover, they were well-equipped, and the patrol team realized after the firefight that they were no match for the Xiong Kingdom people. The Japanese patrol squad leader immediately requested support from the fortress.
Upon receiving the telegram, the commander of the northern fortress was greatly alarmed. Without hesitation, he immediately dispatched Hideo Nakajima's battalion to the location indicated by the patrol.
However, when Hideo Nakajima arrived at the patrol's location, he found that the battle had already ended, though it seemed to have just ended not long ago.
However, there is a strange phenomenon: the bodies of Imperial soldiers are now lying on the ground.
But not a single enemy corpse was found.
Hideo Nakajima immediately realized that the fighting power of this infiltrated Bear Country squad was extraordinary.
He immediately ordered the reconnaissance team to release military dogs to search.
After searching for nearly an hour, Hideo Nakajima finally spotted the Bear Country team about to enter the forest through his binoculars.
When Hideo Nakajima saw that there were only six people from the Bear Kingdom who had entered the forest, he breathed a sigh of relief. Their weapons were not as fierce as the Bear Kingdom's firepower.
After confirming the enemy's numbers, Hideo Nakajima immediately ordered his troops to speed up their pursuit.
It took nearly 10 minutes for Hideo Nakajima to finally reach the edge of the woods.
But as soon as he reached the edge of the woods, Hideo Nakajima could still vaguely see the Kuma-kuni squad moving left and right, about 100 meters away from the edge of the woods.
Hideo Nakajima was overjoyed at the sight, not having time to think about why the Bear Country squad was moving so slowly.
He drew his military knife, pointed it at the Xiong Guo squad a hundred meters away, and shouted.
“Kill the chicken!!!”
But tragedy struck the next second.
Upon hearing Hideo Nakajima's order, the Japanese soldiers rushed into the woods.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
The continuous explosions caused the Japanese soldiers who had scattered and rushed into the woods to cry out in agony, creating utter chaos.
Moreover, in just over 10 seconds, Hideo Nakajima's Japanese soldiers lost about 100 of them.
Hideo Nakajima's hat was blown off to the side by shrapnel from the landmine explosion and landed upside down on the ground.
The feeling of narrowly escaping death terrified Hideo Nakajima so much that he immediately prostrated himself on the ground.
It wasn't until more than a minute after the explosion stopped that Hideo Nakajima got up from the ground, still feeling a bit shaken.
Hideo Nakajima, having suffered a silent loss, was both angry and furious. He no longer cared whether to spare any lives, having lost more than 100 of the Empire's elite warriors.
The more Hideo Nakajima thought about it, the angrier he became, and he could no longer suppress his anger.
He immediately ordered the artillery squads in the rear to fire a salvo at the Xiong Kingdom squad that was about to disappear from sight.
However, the effect was not very obvious, as most of the shells were blocked by the crisscrossing branches of the trees.
However, some managed to escape; one shell landed not far behind Olga, who was responsible for covering the rear.
The shrapnel from the mortar explosion carried terrifying kinetic energy and instantly pierced Olga's left thigh.
Olga felt a sudden heat in her left leg, and instantly stumbled and fell to the ground.
At the same time, a sharp pain shot through his leg, causing him to let out two low groans.
But Olga, who had fallen to the ground, reacted quickly. Despite the pain in her thigh, she put her hands on the ground and crawled rapidly.
At this point, Andy's family no longer cared about whether they would run into landmines.
Fortunately, he was lucky and managed to climb to his team's location without any major incident.
The two companions immediately helped the injured Olga up and ran along the safe route that Bella had identified.
They quickly disappeared from Hideo Nakajima's sight.
Hideo Nakajima was shocked to see that his side had only injured one person after fighting for so long.
He was furious, but could only watch helplessly as the Xiong Kingdom team completely disappeared from his sight.
But Hideo Nakajima did not give up. Since using artillery was not very effective, he decided to send in engineers instead.
Thinking of this, Hideo Nakajima first arranged for people to help the wounded Japanese soldiers on the ground.
Then, they immediately dispatched orderly soldiers to bring up the engineers from the rear to quickly clear the mines.
At the same time, he divided his remaining force of over 1000 men into three teams.
One team followed him behind the engineers, while the other two teams moved quickly along the outer edge of the woods.
They moved directly to the front of the woods and set up a blockade.
He's going to trap them like turtles in a jar.
Back to the present, after examining Olga's injuries, Bellena also frowned.
Olga's injury is not good, and she is now showing signs of excessive blood loss.
This made Bellena somewhat anxious.
Just then, Bella, who was in front, shouted in a panic.
"Commander Bellena, it seems there are Japanese soldiers blocking our way!"
Upon hearing this, Bellena's heart sank.
The radio on my body was uninstalled immediately; in this situation, the only option is to urge the reinforcements to speed things up.
