At the same time, Li Jin and Xu Qingfeng were on a high mountain about 600 meters away from the ambush point. They were holding binoculars and watching the Japanese collecting corpses.
"Next, let's see if these Japs will continue to send troops into the mountains." Li Jin murmured. To be honest, he didn't know for sure.
If the Japanese really want to send heavy troops into the mountains to encircle and suppress us at all costs, they will have no choice but to abandon their base here.
"Well, counting the time, the soldiers sent to report to the regiment headquarters in the morning should be at the regiment headquarters soon." Xu Qingfeng said.
If such a big thing happened in their base area, they had to let the regiment commander know. Of course, they did not ask the regiment commander to mobilize troops to support.
If the Japanese really want to mobilize heavy troops to encircle and suppress us, the best way is to retreat. If we really fight, we don’t know how many people will die.
Giving up the base area is the best choice.
Outside Changyuan County, on a mountain about 500 to 600 meters away from the road, Liu Changshun and two soldiers from the reconnaissance squad were guarding here.
They watched a dozen Japanese soldiers coming out of Changyuan County and heading towards the mountains.
"Platoon Leader Liu, these Japs are probably here to see the situation." One of the soldiers said.
The Japs in the county must have sent someone over to check when they saw that the people who set off had not come back for so long.
"Nine times out of ten, no matter what, it's not a big problem for a large army of Japs to come to Changyuan County." Liu Changshun said.
Their mission is to check if there are any Japanese from other counties in Changyuan County.
As for the Japs in Changyuan County, even if they were all dispatched, they would only number a few dozen and would not pose a threat to the company commander and others.
"You guys stare, I'll squint for a while." Liu Changshun handed out the telescope in his hand, then turned over, closed his eyes and rested.
"Yes" the two nodded and stared at the situation in Changyuan County with binoculars.
Half an hour later.
"Platoon Leader Liu, one of the Japanese who went to the mountain has returned."
When Liu Changshun heard this, he immediately opened his eyes, took the telescope in the soldier's hand, and looked at On the main road, a Japanese soldier rode a motorcycle towards Changyuan County.
"This Japs came back to report, don't worry about him." Liu Changshun was happy. He could imagine the horror of the Japs who entered the mountain when they saw corpses on the ground.
To be honest, if the situation had not been known in advance, the group of Japs entering the mountain would have been in some trouble, at least they would not have been annihilated so quickly.
At this time, in Changyuan County, Lieutenant Bancheng was walking around in the office. He seemed a little irritable. From time to time he would go to the window and look at the door of the military camp, as if he was waiting for someone to come back to report the news. .
"I hope nothing will happen." Lieutenant Bancheng sighed, and he came to sit behind the desk.
Looking at the documents placed on the table, he turned around and took out his finger without any intention of looking at them.He wiped the knife carefully with a white cloth.
Only when he wipes his command knife can he calm down.
A few minutes later, Lieutenant Bancheng heard the sound of a motorcycle engine. He quickly stood up, inserted the knife into the sheath, and walked towards the window.
The soldiers who went to check the situation came back.
Soon the soldier got out of the car and walked towards the office.
"Lieutenant, something happened" the Japanese soldier said as soon as he opened the door.
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lieutenant Bancheng suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"What's going on?" Lieutenant Bancheng asked.
"The soldiers who went into the mountains to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army, all the Jade Broken Emperor's Alliance Army also died," the Japanese soldier said.
"Nani, how could you not be lying to me?" Lieutenant Bancheng's pupils shrank. Didn't he say that there was only one company of the Eighth Route Army in Songjia Village? How could all the soldiers who entered the mountain be broken into pieces
p>
It is impossible for even one battalion to wipe out a small group of imperial soldiers. Moreover, there are Imperial Alliance troops assisting them. They are all trained and their strength is comparable to that of ordinary Chinese armies.
“Lieutenant, this is what we have seen. Second Lieutenant Zuomu and the others were ambushed on their way into the mountains.
It was as if the Eighth Route Army knew in advance that we would enter the mountains. , so they laid an ambush on the way into the mountain early, and their firepower is probably not weak," the Japanese soldier said.
If the firepower is not enough, even if they are ambushed at close range, it will be impossible to completely annihilate Second Lieutenant Zuomu and the others.
"It's impossible to know in advance," Lieutenant Bancheng said. After getting the news, he immediately sent people into the mountain to encircle and suppress them.
Even if the Eighth Route Army had an informant in Changyuan County, it would not have been possible to report the information so quickly, and naturally it would not have been possible for the Eighth Route Army to know in advance.
Unless
"Has Captain Su's body been found?" Lieutenant Bancheng asked.
"Found him, his whole body was beaten into a sieve." said the Japanese soldier. Captain Su was lying not far from the body of Second Lieutenant Zuo Mu. He was shot at least a dozen times and died. Very miserable.
Lieutenant Bancheng fell silent. What he had just thought was that unless Captain Su was a spy of the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army had already made preparations for an ambush before reporting the news, leaving the soldiers who entered the mountain unprepared. .
But the death of Captain Su gave up his idea.
Captain Su cannot be a spy, so there is only one possibility. There may be something wrong with Captain Su's men. They revealed the news to Captain Su, and then asked Captain Su to report it to them.
But Lieutenant Bancheng felt that something was wrong. The Eighth Route Army had finally established a base area, so why should they take the initiative to expose themselves?
Just to annihilate dozens of imperial soldiers, and then use the hard work to establish the base area. The base area was voluntarily exposed. This is not a brain problem.
Exposing the base will not only affect yourself, but also those villages.villagers, it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to do such a thing.
"Lieutenant, it's better to send the Imperial Alliance Army to collect the bodies of Yu Sui's soldiers." The Japanese soldier said.
"Immediately ask the remaining Imperial Army soldiers in the city to help collect the bodies, and at the same time ask all the Imperial Army soldiers who were on guard in the town yesterday to come to the county town," Lieutenant Bancheng ordered.
He had to find out what was going on and whether the Eighth Route Army deliberately exposed its base.
"Hey" the Japanese soldiers retreated.
Lieutenant Bancheng was deep in thought at this moment. In one day, sixty imperial soldiers were crushed to pieces. He was definitely not qualified as a commander.
He thought he was sending people into the mountains to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army, but he didn't expect that he was sending them into the mountains to die. He was too happy and eager to make a contribution, and did not ask Captain Su how he got the news.
If he had thought more about it at the time, this situation would not have happened.
"How can it be repaired?" Lieutenant Bancheng gritted his teeth. He obviously wanted to perform meritorious service, but why did he masturbate? It was a good thing that he masturbated. If not, he would have to go to a military court
As a commander, it would be easy for him to cause such a serious command error and be dismissed from his post. Now he just wants to find out what happened, otherwise, he will not feel at ease even if he dies.
After waiting for more than half an hour, a group of about a dozen puppet soldiers came to the military camp. The faces of these puppet soldiers were full of confusion, and they didn't know why the Japanese asked them to come to the county town.
Lieutenant Bancheng walked out directly and looked at these Imperial Alliance troops. He slowly asked, "Were you the ones standing guard in the town yesterday?"
"Yes" one The puppet army said, he is the deputy captain.
"Are everyone here?" Lieutenant Bancheng asked.
"Our captain is not here, and there are two others who have not come back since they were sent out by the captain yesterday, no, the day before yesterday," the deputy captain of the puppet army said.
On their team, only the captain and the two people who were sent out have not arrived yet, and everyone else is here.
"What did they go to do?" Lieutenant Bancheng said quickly. He felt that the problem lay with these two Imperial Alliance soldiers who had not returned.
"I don't know about this, and the captain didn't tell us." The vice-captain of the puppet army shook his head and said. When he asked, the captain told him not to talk more.
Lieutenant Bancheng frowned, thought for a while and said, "Did Captain Su meet anyone before he sent them away?"
"The captain seemed to have spoken to a villager at that time. , after the villager entered the town, he kept staring at the reward on the bulletin board for two minutes.
Then the captain went over and said something unknown, and then let people leave. It seemed that he was following that person." The deputy captain of the puppet army tried to recall the situation at that time.
Hearing this, Lieutenant Bancheng probably understood what was going on. The villager might have known about the Eighth Route Army, but he did not dare to report it.
After Captain Su noticed something was wrong, he immediately sent someone to follow them. As long as the two did not return for a day,Come on, that means something happened, and it can also be confirmed that there may really be an Eighth Route Army near the village where that person is.
So after Captain Su saw that the two people had not returned, he immediately went to the county to report the situation. All of this was caused by the reward bulletin board.
Captain Su was also a loser. He only wanted to lead Dayang, but he never thought that if something happened to those two people, the Eighth Route Army over there would definitely make preparations in advance.
"This idiot" Lieutenant Bancheng cursed, and he gritted his teeth angrily. If Captain Su had told him everything at that time, he would not have let people go into the mountain blindly.
So much so that Second Lieutenant Zuo Mu, who entered the mountain, felt that he was caught off guard when he entered the mountain and attacked the Eighth Route Army. He did not take too many precautions. Who knows, they were ambushed by the Eighth Route Army instead.
"Taijun Bancheng, has something happened?" the deputy captain of the puppet army asked. Even if he was stupid, he could tell that something was wrong.
"It's okay, you are the vice-captain, right." Lieutenant Bancheng said. He didn't want anyone to know about this matter, and he couldn't afford to embarrass that person.
"Yes." The vice-captain of the puppet army nodded.
"From now on, you will be the captain of the town." After speaking, Lieutenant Bancheng turned and entered the office.
"What's going on?" The vice-captain of the puppet army was stunned for a moment. Why did he become the captain?
Isn't there Captain Su? Did Captain Su get fucked?
"Congratulations, vice-captain"
"Why should I call you vice-captain? I will call you captain from now on."
"Yes, yes, it's time to call me captain, captain." If you get a promotion, you can't entertain guests and serve drinks."
The rest of the puppet troops started to flatter him.
"Haha, it's easy to talk. I'll take you to a brothel tonight." The deputy captain of the puppet army, although he didn't understand the situation, but Lieutenant Bancheng was the commander of the county and also managed them. He said If so, it still counts.
After Lieutenant Bancheng returned to the office, he looked at the phone on the table. He took several deep breaths before calling Guyuan County.
"Bancheng, how is the encirclement and suppression of the Eighth Route Army?" Kazuo Fujita's voice came from the phone.
"Captain, something happened," Lieutenant Bancheng said.
"What's the matter? The encirclement and suppression did not go well. Many soldiers were killed. Is this normal? The Eighth Route Army is very familiar with the terrain in the mountains.
What kind of guerrilla warfare are they good at? There will be The casualties are normal, but it’s pretty good even if we take out the Eighth Route Army’s base area,” said Kazuo Fujita.
"No, all the imperial soldiers who entered the mountain, including the Imperial Alliance Army, were all broken into pieces," Lieutenant Bancheng said.
As soon as the words came out, the sound on the other end of the phone went silent.
"Nani, what were you talking about just now?" Kazuo Fujita's tone was a little unbelievable, and he even suspected that he heard it wrong.
"The sixty imperial soldiers who entered the mountain were all broken into pieces. On the way into the mountain, they were ambushed by the Eighth Route Army," Lieutenant Bancheng repeated.
"Didn't Baga and the others go to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army? How could they be ambushed, and they were ambushed on the way into the mountains?" Fujita said.
"It's my fault. I didn't ask clearly what the situation was." Lieutenant Bancheng immediately told everything. Of course, the responsibility was naturally placed on the dead Captain Su.
Besides, it was originally because Captain Su was greedy for money. Although he was also responsible, he was at most secondary.
"I don't care, in short, I failed to judge the source of the intelligence, which resulted in the destruction of so many soldiers. You have to take responsibility," Kazuo Fujita said slowly.
Of course it is impossible for him to be responsible for this matter, it can only be done by Lieutenant Bancheng.
"Hi" Lieutenant Bancheng nodded.
"I will remove you from your position now, and a new person will come to take over with you tomorrow. For the sake of your elder brother, I will not send you to a military court, but , During this period, you'd better not cause trouble, otherwise, you'll have to wait to go to a military court," Kazuo Fujita said slowly.
The mistake Lieutenant Bancheng made was considered serious enough to warrant a military court. However, Lieutenant Bancheng’s eldest brother was a classmate of him in the military academy and was also an officer at the level of a regimental commander. He had to be punished. face.
"Hey, I know, captain, what should I do with this group of Eighth Route Army troops in the mountains? I feel that their number is probably no less than 500, and their firepower is quite fierce.
, if left alone, it may pose a greater threat to us in the future," Lieutenant Bancheng said.
The Eighth Route Army base area with hundreds of people is considered very large. If this group of Eighth Route Army is allowed to continue to develop, the consequences will be disastrous.
"What else can we do? You have already alerted the snake. Even if you send a large force to encircle and suppress them now, do you think it is possible?
They have already run away, are they still waiting for you to encircle and suppress them? And even if They are still in the mountains. Do you know how many people need to be mobilized to carry out an effective encirclement and suppression?
It requires at least a brigade to do it. Do you think it is worth it to mobilize a large number of troops just to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army with hundreds of people?" Kazuo Fujita said.
If you want to encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army headquarters, you have to mobilize a brigade, even a division. But to encircle and suppress hundreds of people, you have to mobilize a brigade, unless the commander is crazy.
"No, it's not worth it," Lieutenant Bancheng said.
"After having people dispose of Yuchi's body, stop caring about the Eighth Route Army over there. Then, just establish a few more strongholds to prevent them from making trouble." Fujita Kazuo said.
