Chapter 145: A Fish Bone in the Throat
Datong.
300 miles due west.
After a short rest, Yang Chen led the guard battalion out of the mountains and forests and continued to rush in the direction of Datong.
The road that is still being walked is infinitely arrogant.
Soon, however, they were stopped by the Japanese army.
Blocking the guard battalion was an infantry detachment of the little devils, leading a company of the Imperial Allied Army.
As a result, when more than a dozen little devil officers and soldiers of the infantry squad were killed by the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance company led by Xu Hailang, the remaining dozens of imperial troops did not look back, and directly abandoned the stronghold and fled.
And Xu Hailang took advantage of the victory to pursue, and captured five little devil strongholds in a row, and then stopped rushing forward.
The reason why it stopped was because the sun had already set in the west, or it would be dark soon.
There is a more important reason, and that is that the further you go, the stronger the enemy stronghold becomes.
In particular, when the fifth stronghold was captured, the reconnaissance company actually lost a full five officers and men, and in addition to the previous strongholds, the reconnaissance company had already killed more than 10 officers and men, while the reconnaissance company had only 60 people in total, and more than 10 people were killed at once, and the casualties were not insignificant.
If he continues to charge forward, even if he can capture a few more little devil strongholds, I am afraid that his reconnaissance company will not be far from being destroyed.
Therefore, for the sake of insurance, Xu Hailang chose to stop temporarily and wait to join the large army.
Not long after, Yang Chen led a large army to join the guard company.
"Sakata United? Could it be the Bantian Wing who fought with the new regiment in Cangyun Ridge? ”
Yang Chen read the ability through memory, and found that this group of little devil officers and soldiers turned out to be the Bantian United, and the entire rear of Datong was almost garrisoned by the Bantian United, so he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and secretly thought: "If I annihilate the Bantian Wing in Datong, then there will be no future battle of Cangyunling?"
Li Yunlong would not have been dismissed and transferred to the quilt factory to be the factory director, and he would not have become the head of the independent regiment in the future? ”
Yang Chen found that he seemed to be thinking a little too much, shook his head, and didn't continue to think about it.
The rank of the little devil in these strongholds is too low, and the highest is only a second lieutenant, and he has limited information, so he has not received any useful information.
After making some deployments, the guard battalion relied on the strongholds of the little devils and set up camp on the spot.
Datong City, Sakata United Headquarters.
"Yaga!"
After hearing the report of his subordinates, Sakata Nobuzhe suddenly became furious, and slapped the desk in front of him, making a loud "pop".
This slap was like a slap on the heart of the little devil Shao Zuo in front of him, which scared him slightly.
"Have you found out the identity of the other party?"
"It is not known at the moment, only that they should be the elite troops of the Jin Sui Army."
The devil Shaozuo replied with a panicked face.
"Bastard, what the hell are you eating? was captured by the enemy army in five strongholds one after another, and he couldn't even find out the identity of the enemy army? ”
"Please also ask Your Excellency Dazuo to give the humble post a little time, and the humble post will definitely find out the specific identity of this group of enemy troops."
The sweat on the forehead of the little devil Shaozuo came down immediately, and it was not good to do things, which was the greatest shame for the Imperial Japanese Army, and it was also the easiest to be punished by the superiors.
"Your Excellency Dazuo is angry, this matter cannot be blamed on Takeshita-kun, after all, the incident happened in a hurry, even if their efficiency is high, it will take a little time; Let's study what to do now, should we just send troops to annihilate this damn Chinese army? ”
The little devil Nakasa next to Sakata Nobuzhe stood up and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade, he was the deputy captain of the Sakata United, Yokoji Uratomo.
"This Chinese army is well-equipped and brave in battle, and since they dare to go straight to Datong, it shows that it is definitely not simple.
There is an old saying in China, which is called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and not being defeated in a hundred battles.
Therefore, it is imperative not to act rashly until the specific intentions and identity of the person are clear. ”
Sakata Nobuzhe pondered for a moment, then frowned and said.
When the deputy co-captain Yokoji Uratomo spoke, it was not good for him to continue to punish the subordinate Shaozuo in front of him.
And the little devil Shao Zuo looked at the deputy wing captain Yokoji Pu Yu gratefully, and after getting his eye signal, the captain of the wing, Sakata Nobuzhe, saluted a standard military salute, and then turned around and left towards the door of the headquarters.
"Then according to Your Excellency Dazuo, what do you mean?"
Yokoji Uratomo continued to ask.
"Call the Ministry of Intelligence and be sure to find out the exact number of this Chinese army and all the information about their commanders.
Now, north of the Great Wall of China, it is completely under the control of our Imperial Japanese Army.
Instead of obeying the orders of Yan Laoxi, the commander of the Second Theater of Operations, this Chinese army rushed to Xinkou, but ran to Datong.
Then there are only two possibilities, first, this Chinese army has a very large plan, and its purpose is to cut off the connection between General Itagaki and the rear of our army.
Second, the commander of this Chinese army is a fool.
But I myself prefer the former, because if he is a fool, how can he command an army so powerful? ”
"By the way, Your Excellency Dazuo, there was also an army that went the opposite way before, directly killing my Datong City, although it was finally driven by our army to the northern mountains, but it still brought a lot of losses and troubles to our army.
Will this army have something to do with that army? ”
Deputy Wing Captain Yokoji Urana seemed to think of something, and continued to ask.
"The Chinese National Party and the Communist Party have always been at odds, and although they are now cooperating on the surface, they are still on guard against each other behind the scenes.
It was the Eighth Route Army of the Communist Party of China that was driven into the mountains in the north by our army before, and now this army of the Communist Party of China is the Jinsui Army of the Kuomintang.
Therefore, there is absolutely no connection between the two armies. ”
"Your Excellency Dazuo is analyzing!"
"Call the 1st Flying Regiment and ask Tada-kun to continue to launch air raids on this Chinese army early tomorrow morning, to destroy their living forces as much as possible and disrupt their strategic deployment.
I want to see what kind of storm this army can turn up! ”
"Haya!"
……
The screen pulls back to the guard camp station.
"Battalion commander, you let us set up defenses here, will the little devil kill him tonight?"
Li Jiufu, the commander of the machine gun company, asked with a frown after hearing the order of the battalion commander Yang Chen.
"No, the little devil won't come tonight."
Yang Chen shook his head: "The Japanese army is not good at night fighting, and when the air force cannot cooperate, they will not choose to attack at night."
If my prediction is correct, the little devil must have set up a heavy army in front of him as a defense. ”
"In that case, what else are we going to do with it?"
Li Jiufu looked surprised.
"The little devil suffered such a big loss in our hands, first we shot down three fighters, and then we captured five defensive strongholds in a row.
With the urine nature of the little devils, they will definitely not give up.
And Datong is now the throat of the little devils, and we are a fish bone stuck in their throat.
If we are not uprooted, the little devil will be uncomfortable and will not be able to sleep and eat.
Therefore, although the little devil will not attack us tonight, he will definitely come tomorrow with heavy troops.
If we don't defend tonight, how can we resist the attack of the little devils with heavy troops tomorrow? ”
Yang Chen's sharp gaze swept over everyone and shouted, "Okay! Get started and build your defenses before dawn! ”
