Chapter 269: Victory in the First Battle (Second Update!) )
Walking into the station full of corpses, Watanabe Nakasa's face was gloomy, and he had the idea of killing.
Within the field of vision, there are corpses that fall to the ground in various postures, including those of the Imperial Association Army and those of the Imperial Army, of which the Imperial Army still accounts for the majority.
In the artillery position in the middle of the station, the six mountain guns were still standing in place with their muzzles held high, and there were several gunners next to the guns. However, the barrel of the black hole in the artillery has been blown into several pieces, and there is no possibility of repair......
"Sir, I checked it just now, and there is not a single living person in the station, all of them are dead!" The new regimental commander of the puppet army, who had just taken office, reported with his head down.
"Where's the supplies? There is nothing left! Watanabe Nakasa asked rhetorically with a calm face.
The regiment commander lowered his head and replied very carefully: "All of them have been blown up!" ”
"All the carts of supplies were destroyed, especially the ammunition, because of the shell detonation, all the ammunition was destroyed!!"
"It's over!"
Watanabe Nakasa shouted with a look of despair as if his whole body strength had been drained in an instant.
"Without supplies, without artillery, there is no way for our sweep to continue!"
"We have been so cautious along the way, but we didn't expect to be miscalculated in the end, and we lost before the real sweep began!"
"What else do you have to report, say it all at once, don't spit it out, I can still stand it?"
"Hey!"
The deputy captain next to him said: "Sir, in the entire mountain artillery squadron, infantry artillery squad, less than thirty of the nearly two hundred gunners survived with the Imperial Alliance Army, and all the other soldiers died in battle!" ”
"Without the gunner, we won't have anyone to operate even if we temporarily replenish the artillery! We must ask our superiors to replenish us with formed artillery units. ”
"Also, we found the corpses of the Imperial Army of the Three-Way Sortie Force around the station!"
"All the imperial troops were killed in battle, more than a third of the imperial army was killed in the battle, and the others were missing, they must have been captured by the Eighth Route Army that attacked them!"
Watanabe Nakasa's face became even worse, and he shouted with a look of despair: "That is to say, in just one night, we not only lost all the ammunition supplies, but also lost an infantry squadron, a mountain artillery squadron, and an infantry artillery squad!" ”
"Except for more than a hundred people in front of us, the Imperial Association army that cooperated with us in the battle was all wiped out, and the entire army was almost wiped out!"
"Yes, Captain!" The vice captain's head was also lowered, and he didn't dare to look at Watanabe Nakasa.
Watanabe Nakasa fell into deep thought with a calm face, and it took a long time to make a decision: our offensive must be stopped until we get new ammunition supplies and artillery replenishment! ”
"The Eighth Route is too cunning, there is no ammunition supply, no artillery support, and the Imperial Allied Army is also lost. There is no difference between the rest of our forces and sending them to our death! ”
"Pass my order, and the troops should hurry up and rest!"
"After dawn tomorrow, we will go directly to Lingqiu County, and wait for all the supplies and artillery to arrive before continuing the attack!"
"In a moment, I will report to Shangfeng about our battle and battle damage tonight, and ask Shangfeng to give us tactical guidance and replenish ammunition and artillery!"
"If possible, bring another Imperial Concord legion!"
At the temporary assembly place of the guerrillas, it was already dawn when Li Hao rushed back with the guard platoon.
After a night of fighting, the partisans from top to bottom everyone was very tired.
But everyone didn't show it on their faces.
Li Hao glanced over, and almost everywhere he looked was excited!
As soon as Li Hao walked into the assembly area, what caught his eyes was a mountain of weapons and ammunition piled up in the middle of the assembly area.
Hong Linfeng was leading a group of soldiers to count the loot among the weapons, and the smile on his face was almost uninterrupted because he was happy.
Seeing Li Hao coming back, he immediately rushed over to report.
"Captain, this night was too cool, the devils killed a lot, took a lot of prisoners, captured a lot of loot, and their own casualties were very small!"
"The weapons brought back have been counted, there are more than 600 rifles alone, as well as fifteen machine guns, more than 30 pistols, and there are 20 box guns in it, I asked the prisoners, they are all equipped by the puppet army guard company, and all of them are cheap to us!"
Li Hao also had a smile on his face, stared at Hong Linfeng and asked, "What about the captive?" ”
"With these weapons, the equipment we will have to expand the independent battalion in the future is considered to be in place, and then there will be soldiers left!"
"Captives are our best source of replenishment, they are well trained, they have been on the battlefield, and the replenishment of troops can be used in battle. The more prisoners, the more recruits we may mobilize in the future! ”
"Sure enough!" The smile on Hong Linfeng's face became even stronger!
"Ambushed the Japanese puppet army's three-way attack troops, attacked their station, and brought back a total of 598 prisoners before and after, and half of the puppet army's regiment was captured alive by us!"
"Regiment commander, you are right, these puppet soldiers were anti-Japanese soldiers a month ago, and they were forced to become puppet soldiers by the commander, and they didn't want to give their lives to the devil in their hearts!"
"When I saw us attacking, I wasn't scared but I was happy!"
"A lot of puppet soldiers didn't even take a gun, they just held their heads and lay on the ground without moving, and surrendered when we killed them!"
"After interrogation, I learned that except for more than 100 people who broke through and escaped with their commander, all the others were killed by us, and almost all the troops were wiped out!"
"Also, the first infantry squadron sent by the Japanese army was also killed by us!"
"The mountain artillery squadron and the infantry artillery squad were also killed by us, and all the artillery was destroyed by us!"
Jiang Tianhong, the leader of the platoon, and Yuan Qingfeng, the artillery platoon, suddenly rushed over, and when they saw Li Hao, they also reported excitedly.
"Hello captain, we have counted the captured ammunition!"
"In addition to the captured Japanese puppet army, we have brought back a total of 186 ammunition boxes!"
"Including 48 boxes of 75 caliber mountain artillery shells, a total of 240 shells, 52 boxes of 81 mm caliber mortar shells, a total of 520 shells, 24 boxes of infantry artillery shells, a total of 120 shells, and the rest are all bullets and grenades."
"Including 45 boxes of 65 caliber bullets, a total of 90,000 rounds of ammunition. Ten boxes of heavy machine gun bullets, a total of 15,000 rounds, and all the others were grenades, a total of three hundred and fifty in seven boxes! ”
"Although there are no statistics on the weapons and ammunition seized from the Japanese puppet army, an average of fifty rounds of ammunition for a rifle, two grenades or grenades is still fine!"
"All add up to more than 30,000 rounds of ammunition and more than 1,000 grenades and grenades!"
"Captain, this is definitely an unprecedented victory, and the results are no smaller than taking the stronghold of Hongquan Village."
"If it weren't for the limited time, the troops participating in the battle were too small, and we would have captured several times more ammunition!"
Li Hao replied with a smile on his face: "It's a good fight!" ”
"After this battle, the little devil must have broken his muscles and bones."
"I judge: they will definitely suspend the attack, go to Lingqiu County first, and wait for the ammunition supply and artillery units to arrive before continuing to attack our army division!"
"What about the reconnaissance platoon, let them work harder, go now, and immediately go to keep an eye on the remaining Japanese puppet army for me."
"If they turn directly to Lingqiu County, just follow them!"
"If they continue to attack, come back and report immediately!"
"Without ammunition supplies, without artillery, the little devil is a hungry wolf without fangs. If they choose to continue to attack the military division, I will definitely give them a lesson that they will never forget, so that they will never dare to underestimate our Eighth Route Army in the future, and they will be afraid when they hear about our Eighth Route Army! ”
