Chapter 42: Hope and Disappointment
"Eight Grid Tooth Road, Eight Grid Tooth Road"
In the headquarters of the Japanese army brigade on the side of Maojia Town, the captain of the Japanese army was pacing back and forth, and his mouth was constantly scolding. The army of the Republic of China, which was regarded as a waste by himself, continued to block, just like a master who thought he was a master rank, who overturned continuously in the golden rank, and his mentality had already collapsed at this time.
After a long time, he slapped the table that had just been spliced together, and finally managed to calm down, and then he asked the lieutenant behind him.
"How's the Toyono squadron preparing?"
If a squadron is thrown into a frontal position to attack, with the combat effectiveness shown by the Republic of China army, he cannot guarantee that it will be able to capture the position, and the Republic of China army on the opposite side does not have the slightest sign of exhaustion, and not long ago put in new troops, which shows that the enemy still has reserves, and in the case of the enemy's inability to determine the situation, the last unit that is risked is easy to be defeated by the enemy in one fell swoop.
If it had been a month ago, the Japanese captain would never have thought like this, and he would not hesitate to launch an attack and break the defense line of the Republic of China troops in one fell swoop.
Because he had never retreated a month ago, but within a month's time, his brigade was forced to retreat many times by the Republic of China army, and it was he who took the initiative to retreat.
At that time, he was at risk of being surrounded and had to retreat, after all, there were more ants to bite and kill elephants, and a king with a little equipment advantage could not beat five bronzes. This also made him put away a little arrogant and began to face up to the Republic of China army.
"Toyono's squadron is ready, and it is making a detour along the rear, and it is expected to arrive at the intended attack site in four hours, and launch an attack in seven hours."
The adjutant replied.
"Yo Sai" finally had something that would make him go well, and the captain's mood also improved, and he spread out the map and looked at the route of Toyono's squadron that was marked on the map.
This is a curved arc, along the mountain to the right of Maojia Town, Fengye Squadron took the mountains and forests as a cover, taking advantage of the night to march to the flank of the Republic of China army behind Maojia Town, so as to attack the Republic of China army at the same time.
The attack was at twelve o'clock in the evening, seven hours to go.
"Hmph, wait" The captain glanced fiercely at the position of the Republic of China army opposite Maojia Town, snorted coldly in his heart, and at the same time gave the order to stop the attack.
"Commander, the devil has retreated"
On the position of the 917th regiment, watching the devils gradually retreat, the regiment commander Li Husheng breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person sat on the ground violently, and when the battle was at its fiercest, he almost rushed up with his guard platoon in person. And this is the only living force of the 917 regiment now.
"Notify the troops, hurry up and clean up the battlefield, and at the same time strengthen the defensive positions, as well as notify the cooking class, bury the pot and cook, the brothers have been fighting for a row, and they need to rest well"
"Let's go up and help build a position."
Sitting on the ground and gasping for breath, Li Husheng gave an order while drinking the water handed over by the guards.
"Yes"
Behind him, the commander of the guard platoon led the order.
······
"Squadron Leader, there's a flat ground ahead"
In a mountain on the right side of Maojia Town, a squadron of Japanese soldiers was hiding in the dense forest, and the squadron leader, Captain Toyono, looked at a clearing in the distance and fell into deep thought.
His task was to covertly march to the right side of the Republic of China army stationed in Maojia Town, and then launch an attack at night synchronously with the main force of the brigade.
Looking up at the still bright sky, pondering for a moment, he decided to wait for the darkness to continue the march, the predetermined position is only ten kilometers away from his current area, and the march only takes two hours to arrive, there is plenty of time, so there is no need to take risks, this mission is first and foremost to ensure concealment.
"Rest in place," Captain Toyono ordered.
The two hundred devils behind him sat down to rest on the spot, and the devils wrapped themselves in military coats and found withered grass and broken leaves to hide and help keep warm.
"You, be in charge of vigilance," Captain Toyono pointed to a captain and ordered him to be on guard. The captain immediately spread out with a detachment of soldiers. Glancing back at the squadron that had been properly concealed, and looking at his own squadron that had almost blended into the environment, Captain Toyono was satisfied, and then he also found a hidden place to burrow into the shelter.
······
"Yo, it's well hidden"
After half an hour, the color gradually darkened, but it was still a while away from the black, and about eight hundred meters away from the woods where Toyono's brigade was hiding, Luo Yun hid behind a haystack and observed the devils in front of him.
I have to admit that the concealment of the devil is very professional, and from a distance of eight hundred meters, he can hardly observe the traces of the devil with the naked eye, even with his extraordinary eyesight, it is difficult to find, although it is largely because the light is dim at this time, but the concealment skills of the devil are also very online.
"What's the use, though?"
Looking at the red points of light scattered all over his field of vision, Luo Yun pursed his lips and spoke in a disdainful tone.
"Is this a detour attack?"
Looking at the devil's marching route, Luo Yun also figured out the devil's purpose.
"Hehe, then I'll sneak up on you"
Taking advantage of the gradually dense night, Luo Yun took out two recurve knives and sneaked towards the devil's guard post.
······
"Uh..."
In the low scream, the two devils in charge of guarding were killed by Luo Yun on the spot, and the low screams were inaudible from a distance of one meter. Then he walked to the rest of the guard posts in concealment, and only ten minutes later, the thirteen devils in charge of the guard all died under Luo Yun's knife. Among them were 12 devils in a detachment and a devil captain.
[You killed 13 devils]
【You have obtained 130 boxes】
The message flashing from the interface in the field of vision made Luo Yun very happy, this kind of red-named devil is a typical low-ability and high-explosive rate. However, this also confirms a message, this time the devil is wearing a Japanese military uniform, and the task is a roundabout sneak attack, so this kind of red-named devil is randomly brushed, and it has nothing to do with the nature of the devil.
"It's a pity" This result made him decide that it was a pity, which means that encountering this kind of red-named devil depends largely on luck, and he can't take the initiative to find it. However, looking at the more than 200 red dots densely packed in the distance, it was a pity that the little bit in his heart was abandoned by him every minute.
More than 200 red devils are more than 2,000 boxes. That adds up to more than a thousand tons of supplies.
At this time, the sky was still dark, and Captain Toyono, who was hidden among the haystacks, looked at the flat ground in the distance, looked at his watch, and lowered his head again. It's still early, and I'm still waiting for a while to go.
