Chapter 305: Koizumi Advances
……
Listening to Kuramoto's angry roar, Nie Yunshan first whispered to the other party not to shout, and then stepped forward and persuaded in a deep voice:
"Captain Kuramoto, you misunderstood what I meant...... I didn't mean to excuse Camp Commander Deng. It's just that I think if you follow your plan, Battalion Commander Deng is likely to not only not be able to hold back those Eighth Route Army, but will also be defeated by the Eighth Route Army in turn!
If that's the case, then when we attack He Zhendong's regimental headquarters, we will encounter the enemy's front and rear attacks, which will be very disadvantageous to us...... ”
"Searching and killing is ......."
After listening to Nie Yunshan's explanation, Kuramoto also quickly realized the seriousness of the problem, their unit was a special advance team that Captain Koizumi had formed with great difficulty on the orders of the division commander and with the help of the special high-tech department, if he suffered serious casualties in the first actual battle, not only would he not be able to explain it to his superiors, but even the entire division would be humiliated because of this.
"Nie San, I know your concern, but we have successfully infiltrated the interior of the Shina Army, and if we give up the attack, then the reputation of our Koizumi Advance Team will be devastated!
For the sake of the honor of our brigade and even the division, we must destroy the 21st regiment, and we must not let them succeed in their rebellion! ”
Hearing this, looking at Kuramoto, who had a resolute face, Nie Yunshan also frowned deeply.
For a moment, he began to regret his decision a little.
Nearly two months ago, when more than half of the autumn sweep was underway, the Japanese top brass was furious because they were very dissatisfied with the results achieved in conventional operations on the battlefield behind enemy lines.
In view of the fact that the Japanese army would not be able to increase its troops on a large scale in the Jinnan area for a period of time in the future, in order to improve the efficiency of operations behind enemy lines, at the request of the commander of the Koizumi Infantry Brigade of the 69th Division, the 69th Division Shangcheng made a decision to begin secretly forming a special unit, the Koizumi Special Advance Team, with the help of the Japanese army's intelligence agency, Tegaoke.
In view of the outstanding performance of the Japanese sabotage squad in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, the Japanese army in southern Jinnan, on the basis of drawing on the experience and lessons learned from the previous occupation areas, began to try to train special operations units that were different from conventional troops.
In order to smoothly infiltrate behind enemy lines, the Japanese army selected elite combat personnel from various divisions and regiments, and with the help of the special high-tech department, conducted systematic training for the personnel of the special advance unit.
These personnel are not only excellent in technique and tactics, but also good at using all kinds of weapons from both China and Japan. Most importantly, more than half of them can communicate with Chinese without barriers.
At the same time, the Japanese army also specially dispatched dozens of key elements of the Imperial Allied Army to the special high-tech department for training, so that they could master various infiltration combat techniques, and then reorganized these puppet troops who were familiar with the customs and habits of the Chinese into the advance team, so as to strengthen the combat effectiveness and camouflage effect of the advance team. And Nie Yunshan, the former captain of the Xia County Garrison, is the leader of this group of personnel.
A few days ago, after receiving the news that the 21 st Regiment had suddenly mutinied, the Japanese troops in the Yuncheng area, while mobilizing troops to prepare for encirclement and suppression, sent the newly formed Koizumi Advance Team to disguise themselves as troops of the Fifth Theater of the Nationalist Army, and tried to infiltrate the garrison of the 21st Regiment and attack the command organs of the 21st Regiment, so as to cooperate with the Japanese puppet army rushing from the periphery to completely annihilate the guerrilla troops of the Nationalist Army in Jinnan and achieve the goal of deterring other puppet troops.
Although the Koizumi advance team, which had secretly entered the battlefield from the south of Hengqu, was only one squadron of 180 people, it was equipped with sophisticated weapons and equipment.
In addition to the infantry, which were all equipped with the national standard weapons, the rifle and the Czech, they were even equipped with three grenadiers and two 60 mortars. Not only that, but they also carried the most advanced individual light radio station of the Japanese army, so that they could keep in touch with the Japanese troops in the rear at any time.
So, don't look at the small number of this unit, but they are indeed the most elite troops of the Japanese army in this generation.
……
After thinking about it for a while, Nie Yunshan looked at Kuramoto, whose face was flushed, and suddenly asked seriously.
"Captain Kuramoto, I heard that this He Zhendong is a serious military cadet?"
"Hmm...... Yes, according to the information we received, he was a graduate of the Central Military Academy in Nanjing. ”
Wen Yan nodded, and after pondering for a while, Nie Yunshan raised his eyebrows, and then he was happy.
"There it is! …… I have a way to get the Eighth Route Army to leave Lishan Town on its own! ”
"Nani? Nie San, are you sure you can? ”
"Yes...... As long as He Zhendong is a graduate of the Central Military Academy, then I have a way! ”
……
At half past three in the afternoon, the regimental headquarters of the 21st Regiment.
Looking at Xue Liqun's angry back as he gradually walked away, He Zhendong, who was pale, looked up to the sky and sighed, and sat down helplessly holding his wound.
"Tuanza, the Eighth Route Army is sincere to us, and it is indeed too much for you to do this!
We can't forget all the people's feelings just because we have a way out now!? ”
……
Looking at He Zhendong, the acting head of the regiment sitting in the chair, Yang Yuanhua snorted, and finally couldn't help but say what was in his heart.
Just now, He Zhendong suddenly called Xue Liqun over, and then euphemistically ordered the expulsion.
Faced with He Zhendong's behavior of turning his face and denying people, Xue Liqun angrily smashed his glass and left after expressing his protest.
Looking up at Yang Yuanhua, who looked puzzled, He Zhendong sighed, and then took out a telegram.
"Look at it, this is the second telegram that the Fifth War Zone has just sent to us."
"And the telegram? Didn't you just receive one? ”
Hearing this, Yang Yuanhua hurriedly stepped forward and picked up the telegram and read it carefully.
A few minutes later, Yang Yuanhua handed the telegram to the other party with an ugly face, and said angrily:
"What is this?! We are obviously meritorious anyway, even if we don't praise us in this fifth war zone, how can they reprimand us so harshly?
Also, what does it mean to send an official from the Ministry of Military Affairs to supervise? When is this time, they are still doing this! ”
Looking at Yang Yuanhua with an angry face, He Zhendong slowly stood up and spread his hands helplessly at the other party.
"Yuanhua...... after all, we are ...... of guilt.
Once a person is stained in this life, it is difficult to explain some things clearly....... It is reasonable for the Ministry of Military Affairs to send someone to supervise, after all, we are also the ...... of the army that has voted for devils. ”
Hearing this, Yang Yuanhua seemed to suddenly understand something.
"Tuanzao, are you afraid that the people from the Ministry of Military Affairs will have a greater opinion of us when they see the Eighth Route Army?"
"Well...... I don't want to do that either, but after all, we're going back to the Fifth War Zone. If we continue to give authority to others in this way, I am afraid that the brothers will have a more difficult life ...... the future. ”
Hearing this, he nodded, although Yang Yuanhua was dissatisfied, he could only acquiesce. After all, He Zhendong's concerns are still very realistic.
……
"By the way, what should we do with the dozens of seriously wounded soldiers in our battalion, do you want to retreat south with them?"
Just as he was about to leave, Yang Yuanhua suddenly sounded the more than 40 people who were injured by his troops when attacking the puppet army stronghold, these family members had just been retreated by Dr. Shao in the morning, and there would still be many people waiting for Dr. Shao to continue the operation.
Hearing Yang Yuanhua's inquiry, He Zhendong slowly stood up and said with a guilty face:
"There may be some fierce fighting on our southern road, and the wounded brothers will only suffer if they follow us. I just discussed it with Chief Xue, and he agreed to keep the doctor to continue treating the wounded. After we leave, they will bring people back and transfer all the wounded to their bases. ”
"Oh...... it's for the best. These brothers are veterans who have followed you from birth to death for several years, and if you just throw it here and leave it alone, I am really afraid that many brothers will not be able to think about ......it.
Now the Eighth Route Army is willing to help them, what a ...... Alas...... Forget it, don't talk about it! ”
Saying this, Yang Yuanhua sighed, turned around and strode out of the lobby.
……
Four o'clock in the afternoon.
Standing outside the temporary station, looking at the assembly team in front of him, Zhao Shixun finally told the old man who accompanied Shao Mengru to stay in Lishan Town temporarily, and asked him to ensure the safety of Dr. Shao.
Not long ago, an angry Xue Liqun returned to the station and informed He Zhendong of his request for the independent detachment to leave the town temporarily.
Seeing that the 21st Regiment was so unkind to cross the river and dismantle the bridge, many fighters of the independent detachment were angry. Almost in a hail of cursing, the separate detachment completed its rapid assembly. In addition to leaving the elders of the second platoon of the second company and 15 soldiers to be responsible for protecting the safety of the temporary hospital, Zhao Shixun, in accordance with Xue Liqun's instructions, prepared to take the rest of the large army to prepare to quickly evacuate Lishan Town, and temporarily stationed in the valley five miles away, waiting for the 21st Regiment to evacuate before entering the town to take the wounded away.
As for the move of receiving more than 40 wounded members of the 21st Regiment, Zhao Shixun welcomed it very much. In his opinion, these veterans of the national army who had participated in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain were rare sweets.
Now don't look at these people who can only lie on stretchers one by one, it seems to be a burden to the independent detachment. But Zhao Shixun knew in his heart that as long as they could recover, it would definitely be a rare non-commissioned officer seed.
Although they are from the national army, Zhao Shixun believes that as long as Zhou Yu does a good job of ideological work in the later period, these veterans will definitely become the backbone of the independent detachment!
Through the understanding of the past two days, Zhao Shixun knew that unlike the miscellaneous cards of the second and third battalions, Yang Yuanhua's battalion was all under the former chief of staff He Zhendong, and was the backbone of the 21st Regiment, so their wounded were definitely worth taking in!
"Comrades, listen to me! Turn left! March......! ”
With Zhou Yu's order, more than seventy soldiers of the independent detachment lined up in a neat column and left the town from the west quickly along the avenue in the middle of the town.
