Chapter 87: Night Attack (1)

"Deputy Battalion Commander Leng?"

Seeing this deputy battalion commander who had been teaching the corps for no more than ten days just now, Xie Chengrui was also a little surprised.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Leng, we don't know what the situation of the Japanese army outside the city is now, so we can't come nonsense!" Xie Chengrui shook his head.

Although Leng Jie has been here for a short time, his performance in the past few days has also proved his ability, such a capable subordinate, Xie Chengrui is reluctant to let the other party take risks.

"Regiment commander, it is precisely because I don't know the situation of the Japanese army that someone needs to investigate. At this time, I believe that no one is more suitable than the lowly position, which has experience and will not be detected by the Japanese army. Leng Jie insisted, "If you don't find out the situation in advance, if you take the risk of sending troops, it is easy to lose your troops." ”

"Regiment commander, or let Deputy Battalion Commander Leng go, he is the famous Leng Yama, and he will definitely be able to complete the task if he wants to." The chief of staff suggested.

For Leng Jie, the officers of the second regiment had different thoughts, some were jealous, some were questioning, and some were admiring.

Although he didn't know what the chief of staff was thinking, when all the officers agreed, Xie Chengrui could only nod and let Leng Jie go.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Leng, how many people do you need? The conditions are mentioned! Xie Chengrui asked seriously.

Leng Jie replied, "Commander, the lowly position will select two people from the fifth company, and just add three of me to go together, but there is also a small condition for the lowly position." ”

Xie Chengrui was not surprised by Leng Jie's conditions, and said seriously, "Although I said, as long as Xie can meet someone's requirements, he will definitely be satisfied." ”

"Regiment commander, in fact, it's not a harsh condition, just give three submachine guns to the lowly position."

Hearing Leng Jie's very simple request, Xie Chengrui was also a little crying and laughing, and immediately nodded and agreed.

"Big brother, why do you want to take risks, can't you wait until you break through behind? Why work for the Kuomintang? Knowing that Leng Jie was going on an adventure, Han Bin was a little incomprehensible.

Leng Jie shook his head, "I'm not working for the Kuomintang, I'm working for China, and I'm a soldier, I can't see my comrades-in-arms dying on the battlefield in vain, and I can't see my compatriots being slaughtered by the Japanese invaders." As for other things, we'll talk about that later!

The third child, don't run around, wait for the eldest brother to come back. I believe in the ability of the eldest brother, the eldest brother is the boss of the king of soldiers, and these little devils can't hurt the eldest brother at all. ”

After speaking, Leng Jie, Daniel Zhang and Wang Guangming slid down the rope from the city wall.

It's not that the city gate is difficult to walk, but it's easy to attract the attention of the Japanese army because the movement is too big. Due to the previous greeting with the 112th Division, if Leng Jie detected the specific situation, the two units would jointly send troops to attack to inflict heavy damage on the Japanese army and relieve the pressure on the next day.

Under the cover of night, the three of them quietly walked through the ruins, moving very carefully.

The reason why I took Daniel Zhang and Wang Guangming is because the two have been with him for a long time, are familiar with his style, and can cooperate well with each other.

Maybe the skills of the two are not the best, but Leng Jie wants to be obedient, otherwise he will kill people if he runs around in the hinterland of the Japanese army and does not obey the command.

In the entire ruins, there are many corpses, mainly Chinese troops, and most of the Japanese soldiers were taken away by the Japanese army and cremated.

The Chinese army was unable to do so, and was defeated too quickly during the previous retreat to take care of the corpses. Fortunately, it was winter, the weather was cold, and the corpses had not yet stinked, and even a slight stench was covered by the smell of blood and gunpowder.

All three of them wore Japanese military uniforms, which were used to facilitate their movements so as not to expose themselves by accident.

In fact, there are some problems with the direction of the three of them, and it is not the camping of the 9th Division, but the camping of the 16th Division.

It was not Leng Jie's mistake, but the purpose of his trip was the 16th Division of the Japanese Army.

The 16th Division was responsible for attacking the Purple Mountain position, mainly stationed near Qilinmen and Cangbomen, while the 9th Division was stationed on the east bank of the Qinhuai River, including Daxiaochang.

If you want to sneak attack the Japanese army tonight, it will also be a sneak attack on the 16th Division of the Japanese army.

Because this side is close to the Purple Mountain, you can borrow the terrain to cover it, and you can also get the strategy of the main force of the teaching corps on the Purple Mountain.

On the other hand, the attack on the 9th Division is easy to be discovered by the 9th Division, and the chances of success are small.

Don't see that the Japanese army did not attack at night, but the sentry post was not small, and at a distance of 500 meters, I found almost a dozen Japanese sentinels.

Fortunately, Leng Jie's eyes were sharp, and in Leng Jie's opinion, these Japanese sentries were not very hidden, so they were all found by Leng Jie.

The three of them remembered the location of the devil sentry, then bypassed the sentry, and finally came to the Japanese camping near the Qilin Gate found in the Purple Mountain position.

"There's a situation ahead."

Seeing the light in front of him, Daniel Zhang made a gesture to Leng Jie, and then the three of them quietly touched a commanding height one kilometer away from the light.

When he saw that light, Rao is Leng Jie couldn't help but secretly marvel.

"Sir, there are so many devils!" Wang Guangming looked at the scene in front of him and was a little surprised.

"Be quiet, who knows if there are any devils nearby." Daniel Zhang reminded in a low voice.

Wang Guangming touched his head in embarrassment, and carefully lay there without speaking.

Leng Jie didn't care about the conversation between the two, took out the binoculars and took a closer look.

I saw that in the village to the east, the lights were bright, there were hundreds of Japanese tents around the village, and there were many devils in the village.

What's even more infuriating is that these devils are laughing and laughing, obviously very relaxed. Far away, Leng Jie also saw a trace of screams in the laughter of the Japanese army, although he couldn't see what was going on, he could roughly guess.

Thinking of this, Leng Jie's hand holding the telescope suddenly increased in strength, and it took a while before letting go.

"This should be a command of the Japanese army, but I don't know whether it is the division headquarters, or the brigade headquarters or the wing headquarters." Looking at the scene in front of him, Leng Jie guessed.

There are quite a few devils in this village, hundreds of tents, plus the village in the middle, the devils should be more than two thousand people. As for the situation in the villages a little farther away, since he didn't find out, Leng Jie didn't dare to guarantee what it was.

"Sir, there are several bright spots in the southeast, do you want to go and see them?" Daniel Zhang on the side pointed to the southeast and said.

Leng Jie looked at the southeast direction, there were several places with more lights, and it was no surprise that there were Japanese troops stationed. Leng Jie was also hesitating, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided to take a look, if he really attacked the Japanese army in front of him, he had to find out the surrounding situation.

In the end, Leng Jie walked around the Qilin Gate for almost an hour, and found out the situation of several nearby villages clearly, and then quickly rushed back to the city with information to report.

If tonight's operation is successful, the pressure on the Purple Mountain position will be much less tomorrow. Thinking of the atrocities of the 16th Division, Leng Jie gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, and he couldn't wait to cut these devils with a thousand knives!
