Chapter 159: Encounter (9)
"Sir, there is gunfire in the distance, as if there is a battle."
Just when Leng Jie's side was fighting with Ushijima, an army appeared seven or eight miles north of the battlefield.
It was Liao Yaoxiang's department.
However, compared with the maximum number of people of more than 2,000 people, there were only 14,500 people in Liao Yaoxiang's department at this time. In the previous battles, his troops lost seven or eight hundred people, including those who were scattered.
Last night, I finally escaped the pursuit of Ushijima Manbu by taking advantage of the darkness.
Just as he was about to cross the Xuancheng-Wuhu line, he encountered the battle in front of him.
"Fighting?"
Liao Yaoxiang immediately ordered to stop, and then pricked up his ears to listen, there was indeed the sound of gunfire.
The sound of artillery is more obvious, and the sound of gunfire should be weak, but since the artillery is dispatched, it shows that the scale of the battle ahead is not small.
"Sir Liao, there is really a sound of fighting, it may be our people!" Yang Yi also heard the voice.
The order was given, and the troops stopped advancing. Battalion Commander Yang, you follow me, let's go see what's going on. ”
After ordering the troops to stop advancing, Liao Yaoxiang, Yang Yi and a dozen others quietly came to a hill a few hundred meters away.
The terrain is mountainous, but it's not very complicated, and from the hill in front of you, you can see the battle in the distance.
As soon as he climbed to the top of this hill, Liao Yaoxiang's face changed.
Compared to the sounds heard in the mountains and forests before, they are heard here much more and more obviously.
Through the binoculars, he could see a fierce battle breaking out on the road in the distance.
The Japanese side was outnumbered, not only artillery, but also tanks, which had the upper hand.
On the friendly side, they are trapped in a few small highlands and nearby villages, watching the battle, and this friendly force is not weak.
Several positions cooperated with each other, and the Japanese army did not make much progress in a short time.
"Sir, this devil has at least one wing, and he also has tank cover!" A captain next to him saw the situation of the devil in the distance, his expression was a little bitter, and he couldn't help but purse his chapped lips.
"Chief Liao, how do you feel that the warring parties in front of you are a little familiar. It can't be Commander Leng and the Japanese army chasing us, right? Yang Yi hesitated for a while and said.
"How can you have this guess?" Liao Yaoxiang also had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't rush to say it.
Yang Yi said truthfully, "Sir Liao, this is the area occupied by the Japanese army near here, and the troops of the third theater should be stationed in Tongling and other places. There are not many national troops that can hold out for so long with weak forces, and it just so happens that Chief Leng's troops are in this direction, and they are faster than us.
As for this Japanese army, except for the one from Nanjing, the Japanese army in this vicinity should not be able to exist in the form of a wing in the short term. ”
Liao Yaoxiang nodded, and then after observing for a while, he returned to the mountains and forests where the large army was resting, and immediately called the officers above the company commander over.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation ahead is roughly clear, it may be that Commander Leng's troops and the Japanese army are fighting.
And the Japanese army that fought with Regiment Commander Leng may be the Japanese army that has been chasing us for the past two days and has caused us to lose many of our brothers.
We have hundreds of brothers who died at the hands of this Japanese army, and now we have met, and it is God who has brought us back to the field. ”
"Sir's right, fuck me."
"That's right, our brothers can't die in vain, fight the little devils to save Chief Leng and them!"
Liao Yaoxiang thought that these officers would not approve of joining the battle, but now he found that he was thinking too much. Even a few who did not speak did not object.
Since the people below have no objections, Liao Yaoxiang should even say his playing style.
It's not just the people below who are holding their breath, but he is not in his heart.
But before, he couldn't fight if he wanted to, but now that he has a chance, he must teach this devil a lesson.
。。。。。。
"Takeda Nakasa, it's time for you to play.
The current force of the Chinese army is the target of our operation, and we hope that Takeda Nakasa can destroy the command system of the Chinese army and wash away the shame of the empire.
Do you understand? ”
After more than an hour of fighting, Mitsuya Ushijima analyzed the core of the Chinese army on the opposite side.
It seems that the small highlands around here are more difficult to gnaw, and that is only because of the topography, but the real core is still in that village.
Technicians accompanying the army also detected signs of radio activity, which was in the same village.
So Ushijima can conclude that the headquarters of the Chinese army in front of him is in that village.
As for whether the two squadrons in the hands of Takeda Nakasa can destroy this headquarters, Ushijima Mitsuru doesn't have much hope, but the other party is here because of this matter, so he can't watch it, right?
"Hey, please rest assured that Your Excellency the Brigade Commander, we will definitely live up to our mission!"
Soon, while the two forces were fighting fiercely on the front, Takeda Nakasa led two squadrons of Japanese troops to make a lot of detours and appeared in the woods behind the side of the village.
As Takeda Nakasa, who studied special operations in Germany, he is full of confidence, in his opinion, the Chinese army's tactics are old-fashioned, and they do not understand special operations at all.
Today, he is going to use actual combat to tell the Chinese army what a real special operation is.
However, not long after Takeda Nakasa's troops entered the woods, they were discovered by the sentry.
For this wood, although it was not the Japanese attacker, there were still sentinels.
Not long after the Japanese stepped into the woods, they were spotted by sentries, and then gunfire rang out.
Of course, it was the Japanese gunfire that rang out.
"Yaga, you idiot, who told you to shoot?"
When a gunshot goes out, it means that the whereabouts are exposed.
"It's not good, there is a sneak attack by devils, go and report to the head of the regiment!"
"Brothers, call me, don't let the devils rush in!" The squad responsible for guarding the direction of the grove quickly fired back, and while sending people to report, they were also using gunfire to alert the people in the village.
"Attack me and kill all these people!"
Seeing that his whereabouts were exposed, Takeda Nakasa didn't care about it, and directly ordered a strong attack.
For a while, the light machine guns and submachine guns under Takeda Nakasa's men rang out one after another, and the soldiers of the squad in charge of the guard were quickly knocked to the ground by the powerful fire of the Japanese army.
Moreover, the Japanese army also had snipers, and in less than a few minutes, these more than 300 devils eliminated the patrolling Chinese soldiers, and then broke into the village.
Leng Jie didn't expect that there would be a sneak attack from behind.
"Sir, the devil has come in. This group of devils is a little different, there are quite a few submachine guns, and there are snipers! ”
"Submachine guns? Sniper? Leng Jie was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "This little devil wants to learn from me?" Wang Guangming, take your spy company, and we will meet this different Japanese army.
Today, we are going to teach the devil what special operations are. ”
