Chapter 238: New Information

------------

The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, Zhao Zhi is lying on a ball of hay and sticking to the mouth of the cave to watch the pouring rain outside, after being taken back to the cave by the rich man in the middle of the night last night, it rains in this mountain forest, looking at the rain outside, it is estimated that it will not stop for a while and a half. Zhao Zhi was a little anxious, he had been following Zhao Zhi's phone soldier missing, and when he retreated from the hillside to the cave, everyone was busy taking care of the wounded, and no one knew when the phone soldier disappeared. It's okay if you die in battle or get lost, but if you are captured by the Japanese army, what if you leak the telegram code of the expeditionary force?

"Old cannon, you bring me the kid who dared to go to his father and we caught, if you are idle, you are idle, let's try that kid first" There is nothing to do, Zhao Zhi remembered the young man from Myanmar who the rich man they caught last night, listen to the meaning of his father, this kid's family is quite rich, and he is still the youngest son of a family. Originally, Zhao Zhi didn't plan to stay alive, but after a temporary turn of his mind, the ghost sent the young Burmese to stay and bring him back to the cave.

Of course, the father and the young Burmese were treated in two ways, the injured father was carried on a stretcher by the old cannon and the rich man, while the young Burmese was pressed by the gun, not only with a bayonet against the back of his heart, but also tied the upper body of the young man with hemp rope like a dumpling. Looking at the circle of hemp rope tied to the young man's body, Zhao Zhi was panicked, he was afraid that if there were more ropes in Daguo, maybe he would tie this young man to death.

"Tell me, what's your name?" Zhao Zhi, who seemed to be leisurely, was holding a grass branch and plucking his ears comfortably, signaling the daring father to translate his words to the young man. For the troops who dared to pursue him, Zhao Zhi wanted to know their numbers, especially the Burmese who had caused him heavy losses, and he wanted to know more about them. In Zhao Zhi's view, there was no conflict of interest between the expeditionary force and the Burmese, but why did these Burmese have to help the Japanese pursue them?

The young man who was caught by Zhao Zhi was Wu Zuo, last night's battle, under the strong firepower of Zhao Zhi and the rich man twice, Wu Zuo's more than 100 men were killed and wounded, and even he himself ended up being a prisoner of Zhao Zhi. According to the plan discussed with the Japanese army, relying on his iron feet, Wu Zuo bypassed the mountain road, and finally blocked Zhao Zhi and them in front of them when it was dark. As soon as they made contact with them, they retreated along the mountain road, relying on their superior firepower to hold the defensive line steadily until reinforcements arrived.

After being tied up for a night, Wu Zuo figured out the reason why he failed, that is, he believed too much in the combat power of his men in the mountains and forests, and ignored the opponent's firepower advantage, which was a firepower that even the Japanese could not match. Wu Zuo, who figured out the problem, began to think about how to escape, but after pondering for a long time, he couldn't find a trace of negligence on the part of the other party, and finally Wu Zuo reluctantly gave up this idea and honestly stayed at the end of the cave where he was imprisoned.

At dawn, the most surprising thing happened to Wu Zuo, he thought that the two archers who were missing actually appeared in this cave, and the little guy among them was actually a girl, a good-looking girl. Originally, Wu Zuo thought that he could move these two people to help him escape, but what he never expected was that as soon as the girl turned around, she directly called the soldiers of the expeditionary force, tied herself with hemp rope, and kicked herself several times before leaving.

The young officer on the other side looked about the same age as himself, but he had some gauze wrapped around his body for a little more solemnity, and a pair of black eyes on his white face. Wu Zuo had only seen such deep eyes in his father, but the young officer in front of him, who was about the same age as himself, also had eyes and murderous aura that did not match his age, Wu Zuo knelt on the ground, raised his head and looked at Zhao Zhi unabashedly, looking at the young and unseemly officer in front of him.

Zhao Zhi was not surprised by Wu Zuo's obviously contemptuous eyes, the daring father had already whispered to Zhao Zhi about Wu Zuo's identity just now, children like this kind of head, especially boys, have been unruly and lawless since they were young, if Wu Zuo begged for mercy and was afraid of death as soon as he came up, maybe Zhao Zhi would be a little surprised. There was a smile in Zhao Zhi's eyes, this guy who was tied up like a zongzi was a little interesting, maybe he could get what he wanted from his mouth.

"What did our chief ask you?" Regardless of whether Wu Zuo could understand what he was saying, the old cannon raised his hand and pulled it up. The old artillery has a way to deal with this kind of hob meat, if it weren't for the dare to sit beside Zhao Zhi and watch the excitement, the old artillery would have changed to more powerful tricks, this is the old artillery used to clean up the deserters in the past, he doesn't believe that this captured Burmese can withstand his own means.

Zhao Zhi just looked coldly at the old cannon whipping Wu Zuo, and did not stop it, Zhao Zhi's soft-heartedness was limited to his own people, he had no good impression of these Burmese who helped the Japanese army to kill the rout of the expeditionary force, if Daguo and his father hadn't rescued those poisoned soldiers at a critical moment, Zhao Zhi would have killed them and abandoned them in the mountains and forests. After experiencing so many things, Zhao Zhi is no longer the hairy boy who used to think about reasoning with people in everything, and he also depends on who the other party is.

Wu Zuo was afraid, he was really afraid, this strong man with a full face was going to kill himself, holding back the pain on his body, Wu Zuo shouted loudly. "What is he calling?" Zhao Zhi leaned over and asked Daguo's father, this is currently the only person in Zhao Zhi's hands who can speak Burmese and Chinese, although he is stumbling when he translates Chinese, but it is better than Zhao Zhi They can't understand anything.

He said, as long as you don't kill him, whatever you ask, he will answer, "Kangguo and her father have some schadenfreude, this Wu Zuo used to bully them when he was in the village, and he often bullied them, beating and scolding them at the light, and robbing the ** girl, if it weren't for Daguo's father who made Daguo black and ugly since he was a child, then Daguo might have been snatched away by the Wu family." Seeing this once invincible guy kneeling and begging for mercy, the father and daughter were naturally very happy.

"Ask him, how many of them are there this time? How many Japanese are there? Where are the rest of the Japanese? ”

After learning the methods of the old artillery, Wu Zuo naturally did not dare to slack off, and told everything he knew about it, and at the end he took the initiative to talk about the current Japanese army deployment in Daluo. Zhao Zhi didn't dare to slack off, found a map and pen and paper, and marked the current battle situation and the deployment of the Japanese army in Daluo on the map according to the information told by Wu Zuo. Since the expeditionary force began to counterattack Burma and entered the Hukang Valley, the Japanese troops stationed in various places have been attacked by the expeditionary force troops, causing heavy casualties, and their front has been rapidly shrinking.

Originally, Wu Zuo had no right to access this information, but Wu Zuo had a good relationship with Kameyama, and the two often drank and enjoyed women together, so Kameyama often discussed the current battle situation with other Japanese officers in front of Wu Zuo, and by the way, he would talk about some orders from the headquarters, and Kameyama often took Wu Zuo to wander around the world in Daluoman, and Wu Zuo, who was good at Japanese, also kept these things and the Japanese army's defense in mind, but he didn't expect it to become an important piece of information that could save his life.

Zhao Zhi didn't believe Wu Zuo's words, he thought that this Burmese was talking nonsense to save his life, but one of the pieces of information that Wu Zuo confessed was the latest war situation in ---- Yubang, which Zhao Zhi was most familiar with and concerned about. Guishan once told Wu Zuo about the battle situation in Taibang, but it turned out that Sun Liren personally went out and led a large number of officers and soldiers of the new 38th Division through the jungle, and had surrounded the Japanese garrison regiment in Yubang. The current Yu Bang is like a sandwich biscuit, the soldiers of the 112th Regiment who are besieged are in the innermost, and their outside is the 55th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, and now the 55th Wing of the Japanese Army is surrounded by the new 38th Division of the Expeditionary Force led by Sun Liren.

But when Wu Zuo knew the news, Sun Liren's new 38th Division had not yet begun to attack, I don't know what the reason was, the new 38th Division just surrounded the Japanese 55th Infantry Wing, so Wu Zuo did not know the actual situation of Yu Bang's current battle. Zhao Zhi was very happy to learn that the new 38th Division had arrived in Yubang, which showed that the information he sent back had worked, no matter what problems there were between himself and the 112th Regiment, at least those who were besieged by the Japanese army were his comrades-in-arms.

Wu Zuo's confession also contained information that made Zhao Zhi ecstatic: The Japanese troops stationed in Daluo had received the latest order from the Japanese headquarters, asking them to prepare in advance to receive a large number of Japanese troops. When he first heard this information, Zhao Zhi didn't think so, he thought that it was just a normal movement of Japanese troops, but when he heard that there were 55th Infantry Wing and 56th Infantry Wing in the Japanese troops transferred to the front line of Daluo and Taibaijia, he was only surprised and ecstatic.

The fact that these two infantry wings of the Japanese army are currently facing off with the expeditionary force in the Hukang Valley, and the Japanese army headquarters has issued such an order, is it not saying that the battle situation of these two units is not going well, and they will take the initiative to withdraw from the battlefield and retreat back. No matter which force withdrew to Daluo, as long as Zhao Zhi could timely convey the garrison of the Japanese army in Daluo back to the headquarters, it would be of great help to the expeditionary force's next actions.

Zhao Zhi, who was anxious to figure out the problem, stopped the old cannon from extorting a confession from Wu Zuo, and before he squeezed out Wu Zuo's intelligence, he must not kill this guy, at least not now. The rain outside had been raining for a long time, and Zhao Zhi asked for a long time, and the people guarding Wu Zuo beside Zhao Zhi had changed several times, but Zhao Zhi was still full of energy and kept asking questions. The number of Japanese troops stationed in Daluo, the deployment of Japanese troops in Daluo, the allocation of weapons, and the reserves of food and materials, as long as Wu Zuo knew, Zhao Zhi asked all about it.

"Take him down first, give him some food and water, don't let him die, it's still useful to keep him" Zhao Zhi rubbed his temples slightly tiredly, and asked a soldier next to him to take Wu Zuo away first. There was a thick stack of paper in front of Zhao Zhi, these were all things that Zhao Zhi endured the pain and recorded from Wu Zuo's confession, and wrote several pieces of paper freely. Zhao Zhi was very fortunate to learn this information, but how to deliver this information to the headquarters has become a dilemma for Zhao Zhi.

Last night's march, Zhao Zhi's radio soldiers were gone, and if he wanted to contact the headquarters, he had to turn back to Lagasu to find the expeditionary force there first, but now Zhao Zhi's side was almost all wounded, and there were few intact soldiers at all. In such an environment, sending a small army composed of several soldiers to march in the jungle was simply forcing them to die, but Zhao Zhi couldn't take all the wounded to march on the road together, which would toss the wounded to death.

"Call all the officers to the meeting, and carry the wounded over" The position at the mouth of the cave is large enough for the officers to gather together for a meeting. Zhao Zhi, who was currently in a dilemma, couldn't make a decision by himself, so he had to call a meeting with all the officers to report the situation to everyone and see what others meant. The only intact officers were the rich man, the old cannon and the long hair, and the uncle, the dog, the steamed bun and Yan Shijun were all carried over on a stretcher, and they lost so many robes, and everyone's face was a little sad and sad.

"The Burmese young man we captured last night is a small boss who has been stationed in Daluo with the Japanese army, and is usually responsible for spying on intelligence and material collection for the Japanese army." Zhao Zhi looked around, and saw that everyone was a little absent-minded, and then raised the pages in his hand in an accentuated tone, "This is some information that the kid just confessed, this kid is a good friend with one of the Daluo Japanese soldiers, and I learned some information from that Zhongzuo that we urgently need, and I wrote it down."

Obviously, this just-obtained information attracted everyone's attention, and with Zhao Zhi's voice, everyone was listening attentively to Zhao Zhi's explanation of the content of this information, and even the uncle who had been smoking also extinguished the cigarette. "Do you understand? At present, the Japanese army in the Hukang Valley is on the front line of the 55th and 56th infantry wings, and if the Japanese army retreats back like this, the Hukang Valley will be regarded as opening the door for our expeditionary force."

"What does this have to do with us? Let's be under the command of the headquarters, besides, that positional warfare is not our strong point, and it is estimated that we will not be able to make any battles" The old artillery has a different opinion, since the advance battalion was assigned to the direct command of the headquarters, and he was promoted to an officer, and the old artillery has also begun to learn to think about problems. Although Lao Cannon's words were rougher, what he said was not unreasonable, even if Zhao Zhi took the initiative to ask for battle, but if the headquarters did not agree, Zhao Zhi had no choice. After all, the direct company has always been in the form of a small force, interspersed with battles in the jungle, and has never faced the Japanese army in a real positional battle. ~
