Chapter 181: The Fish That Slipped Through the Net
At night, Fujin Mountain stood quietly on the bank of the Shi River, silent and colorless, only the thick smell of gunpowder and blood still wafting in the night sky.
On the left flank, the officers and men of the 36th Division were seizing the time to rest, and heavy snorts wafted over the position, mixed with painful groans.
At the foot of the mountain, an atmosphere of frustration permeated the positions of the Numata Brigade, and after several days of hard fighting, the wing commander was killed and wounded twice, and even Major General Numata was wounded in the counterattack of the defenders...... Fortunately, Major General Numata was only hit by a stray bullet in his left leg, and after a little treatment, he was still in command at the front line.
On the night of September 10, the Numata Brigade received two more reserve brigades.
Major General Numata immediately began to organize a new attack, and reported to Lieutenant General Ogisu one by one, and just put down the phone, but he heard the gunfire in the direction of Huangzhuang, and was suddenly startled, and he didn't care about the injury on his leg, so he stood up at once, his hands were propped on the table, his body was straight, and his face was as pale as paper...... Huangzhuang is where the headquarters of the division is located!
All the generals were shocked and looked at Major General Numata one after another.
Major General Numata immediately made a decision and looked at Muto Nakasa, "Muto-kun, immediately return to the reinforcement ......"
"Hey!" Muto Nakasa said yes and hurried away.
The two reserve brigades were brought by him from Huangzhuang, and they had just arrived at the front line, and they had to rush back to help, because these two brigades were the most complete brigades, and only they were the most suitable to go back.
"Gentlemen," Major General Numata looked around at the generals again, his expression solemn, "immediately organize a defense...... The Shina people on the hill are likely to take advantage of the situation and fight back. ”
"Hey!" The generals agreed and hurried away.
Seeing the generals disappear outside the door, Major General Numata was relieved, slumped in his chair, his body trembled, the bandage on his left leg was already stained scarlet with blood, and cold sweat rolled down his cheeks.
The chief of staff on the side, Nozawa Nakasa, was shocked, and hurriedly yelled at the guards at the door, medical officer, call the medical officer! ”
Major General Numata hurriedly waved his hand, his voice trembling, "Quick...... Divisional Headquarters...... Phone ......"
"Hey," Nozawa nodded hurriedly, grabbed the phone and dialed the number of the division headquarters.
However, there was no response on the other end of the phone.
Nozawa Nakasa's heart sank, and he turned his head to look at Major General Numata, his face was pale, "Major General ......"
Major General Numata's face turned even paler, and his voice trembled even more, "Increase...... Reinforce...... You...... Go to ......"
"Hey!" Nozawa nodded hurriedly and hurriedly ran out of the door...... Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, you must not be fine!
Huangzhuang, the headquarters of the 13th Division.
Liao Heiniu led his brothers to break through the gate, rushing all the way, invincible, but still one step later than Huang Hua and the others who attacked the house from the wall.
Liao Heiniu rushed to the conference room with a happy face, glanced in the room, but didn't see half a little devil, suddenly smiled stiffly, and hurriedly looked at Huang Hua, who rushed in first, "Old Dao, what about people?" ”
Huang Hua looked at the back door of the black hole and gritted his teeth, "Let him slip away!" ”
"Chase!" Liao Heiniu's face sank, "Turtle's, you must not have run far!" ”
Before the words fell, he had already rushed to the back door with a team of brothers and chased after him.
"Company commander," Du Monkey hurriedly looked at Huang Hua, "Let's chase!" ”
Huang Hua shook his head, saw the pot in the corner of the wall filled with fireworks, and hurriedly rushed over, "Find something first!" ”
Zheng Sanyang once told them that when entering the headquarters of the devils, they must first search for documents and radio stations.
"Bang...... Smack......"
Huang Hua flipped the brazier, buckled it to the ground, hurriedly extinguished the fire, squatted down and rummaged through, but unfortunately, the documents had turned into ashes, and there were only a few pieces of paper the size of a palm.
The brothers hurried to the telecommunications room, only to see that the radio had fallen to the ground and became a pile of rags.
The other brothers hurriedly rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, and for a while, there was a loud noise, and the house was in a mess.
Li Siwei hurriedly walked in and looked at Huanghua, "What's the matter?" ”
Huang Hua hurriedly shook his head, "The person ran away, the black bull was chasing, and the documents were burned......"
"Turtle's!" Li Siwei scolded angrily, and glanced around, "Find it for Lao Tzu, it will definitely not be burned!" ”
"Bang ......"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sudden gunfire from the east, followed by a rain shower hitting plantains.
"Bang ......"
"Da Da Da ......"
"Turtle's!" Li Siwei was startled, and suddenly calmed down, "Take whatever you find...... Yellowing, notify everyone to break through to the east! ”
"Yes!" Huanghua hurried away...... Of course, there may be something important hidden here, but if there is a slight delay, the brothers will have to fold here, and there will be little devils all around!
"Bang ......"
"Da Da Da ......"
The gunshots in the south also rang out, and Li Siwei gritted his teeth, "Burn, it's all for Lao Tzu...... Turtles, they like to burn, Lao Tzu will help them add a fire! ”
Why might Lieutenant General Ogisu like to burn? Since the fire in Taipingji, he was a little stunned when he saw the flames, and he didn't even smoke anymore! However, at this time, he couldn't help but burn it!
The gunfire in the east stopped abruptly, and Li Siwei was relieved, it seemed that Liao Heiniu and Zhuangdong's defenders had encountered, but the gunfire in the south became more and more intense...... It's reinforcements!
"Regiment commander," Huang Hua hurriedly returned, "The third battalion has already withdrawn to the east, Lu Quanyou asked you to go first, and he led the first battalion to break down!" ”
"Good!" Li Siwei didn't dare to hesitate, gritted his teeth, "Go!" ”
Li Siwei led the team out of the back door and went straight to the east, leaving the flaming mansion in vain!
As soon as Li Siwei rushed out not far away, he saw Ma Yue coming towards him, "Commander, where to break through?" ”
"To the east!" Li Siwei didn't stop, "Did you catch up?" ”
Ma Yue followed closely and hurriedly shook his head, "No, I met a team of little devils face to face...... Do you want to chase it? ”
"No need," Li Siwei quickened his pace, "Huanghua, take the brothers of the special service company to the front, the most important thing now is to take the brothers out!" ”
"Yes!" Huang Hua quickened his pace, "The brother of the special service company is exploring the way with me!" ”
Miao Zhenhua hesitated, "Regiment leader, Fujin Mountain...... Do you want to send a signal? ”
Li Siwei hurriedly shook his head, "No need, I will definitely not be able to bargain in the past!" ”
The brothers of the 66th Regiment fought and retreated, and quickly retreated into the night.
Muto Nakasa rushed into the village with two brigades, and came straight to the headquarters of the flames, and was immediately shocked when he saw it, "Fight the fire, put out the fire quickly!" ”
"Nakasa," Sakai Shaosa, a staff officer of the accompanying army, hurriedly reminded, "The lieutenant general may not be in it......"
Muto Nakasa turned his head suddenly, staring at him deadly, his eyes blood-red, "What if it's here!" ”
In case that one didn't break through the headquarters, he just set a fire...... Muto Nakasa still has the last trace of fantasy!
Sakai Shaosa was shocked and quickly closed his mouth.
A group of little devils hurriedly put out the fire, and soon, the fire at the gate was extinguished, but on sunny days, the wooden main house burned even more vigorously!
"Yaga!" Muto Nakasa's red eyes stared at the churning fireworks, but he couldn't do anything!
The officials are also like ashes, and they will be burned like this...... Even if His Excellency the Lieutenant General is still in the room, he will never be lucky!
At this moment, Nozawa Osa hurried up and rushed into the courtyard, "Have you found His Excellency the Lieutenant General?" ”
Muto Nakasa hurriedly turned around and shook his head weakly!
"Yaga!" Nozawa Osa was shocked, shocked and angry, "Pursue with all your might, you must not let them run!" ”
"Hey!" The attendant hurried away.
Nozawa Daisa looked at the fire-filled main mansion with a gloomy face...... Could it be that His Excellency the Lieutenant General really had an accident?
"Do you want to report to His Excellency the Major General?" Aso Shaozo, who was behind him, asked softly.
Nozawa Osa was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head, "Your Excellency the Major General is doing his best to guard against the frontal enemy, and we can't let him mess up!" ”
Aso Shaozo was stunned, "Hey! ”
Indeed, Major General Numata was making every effort to guard against a frontal enemy.
When Huangzhuang was attacked, Major General Numata immediately thought that this was the plan of the defenders on the mountain, and first sent a small force to raid the division headquarters, and then took advantage of the situation to counterattack. He didn't know that the division headquarters was just mentioning him to block the disaster...... The target of the 66th Regiment was originally the Numata Brigade, but at this time, the headquarters of the 13th Division in Huangzhuang had been exposed, and naturally it could no longer raid the Numata Brigade!
Li Siwei did not fire a signal flare, but as early as the gunfire in Huangzhuang, the defenders on Fujin Mountain heard it.
"Division Commander, the fight has started!" The signal corps rushed into the dugout, his face full of excitement, "there are gunshots behind the little devils......
They were waiting for flares in the trenches, but they didn't want to hear the gunshots faintly!
"Gunshots?" Division Commander Chen was stunned, hurriedly got up, rushed out of the air-raid shelter, listened attentively, and sure enough, there was a faint sound of gunfire, "pop pop ......", far away.
Senior Commander Chen frowned, "To say the least, there are five or six miles of land...... It shouldn't be them! Wait! ”
Soon, someone shouted again, "It's on fire, it's on fire in Huangzhuang!" ”
Division Commander Chen was in good spirits, and hurriedly jumped into the trench, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the flames in the direction of Huangzhuang, and when he heard it again, the gunfire was even more dense!
"Flares, watch out for flares!" Master Chen was in good spirits...... The little devil must be in big trouble! Could it be that reinforcements did it?
Brigade Commander Hu, who was on the task of counteroffensive, hurriedly came, "Division commander, give the order!" Brothers, you're ready! ”
Senior Commander Chen shook his head, "Wait! ”
"Can't wait any longer!" This young brigade commander, who was known as the "Desperate Saburo" in the 36th Division, looked anxious, "It's so far, they can't fight at all!" Waiting any longer will only be a missed opportunity! ”
Master Chen was shocked, and secretly gritted his teeth, "Okay!" Start the counteroffensive! ”
"Yes!" Brigade Commander Hu perked up, turned around and left!
"Jia Ji," Senior Commander Chen stopped him, "you...... Come back alive! ”
"Don't worry!" Brigade Commander Hu didn't look back, "You can't die from your humble duties!" ”
"Good!" Senior Commander Chen stared at his back tightly, "Lao Tzu is waiting for you to come back!" ”
Brigade Commander Hu waved his hand and disappeared into the night.
"Alas!" Master Chen sighed, still looking in that direction...... After the battle of Fujin Mountain, how many old brothers are left?
"Division commander," the herald was also looking in that direction, a little worried, "Brigade Commander Hu......"
Senior Commander Chen waved his hand, "He'll be fine...... Heiwa, bullets are also afraid of ruthless people! ”
Heiwa was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Yes, bullets can't kill Brigadier Hu!" ”
Brigade Commander Hu is naturally not his direct superior, but Brigade Commander Hu is the idol of the officers and soldiers of the whole division, because he was shot five times in the Songhu battlefield and did not die, because he was repeatedly wounded and his heroism was undiminished!
"Bang ......"
"Da Da Da ......"
Soon, there was a lot of gunfire at the foot of Fujin Mountain, and the officers and men of the 36th Division launched a counterattack again! The remnants of the army, less than a thousand men, let out a final roar and rushed towards the enemy who was several times their size!
In the night, bullets flew sideways, screams came one after another, and one after another figures fell, on the way to counterattack, on the way to charge...... They are interpreting the words "heroic and fearless" with blood!
In the headquarters of the Numata Brigade, the military doctor had just helped Major General Numata treat his wounds, but he heard the loud gunfire outside, and he was suddenly shocked.
"Sure enough!" Major General Numata had a hideous face, "I finally couldn't help it...... Trapped beasts are still fighting! ”
"Major General," the attendant officer hurriedly came, "Your Excellency Lieutenant General is unharmed!" ”
"Oh," Major General Numata was relieved and completely relieved, "Command all departments, Lieutenant General is safe and meet the enemy with peace of mind!" ”
"Yes!" The attendant hurried away.
Lieutenant General Ogisu was indeed unharmed.
When Nozawa Osa and a group of officials looked at the fire-filled main mansion like a mourner, they saw a person coming in a hurry, and the thick smoke and dust could not hide the joy on their faces, "I found it, I found His Excellency the Lieutenant General!" ”
The person who came was Captain Watanabe, who led his troops to fight the fire in the backyard.
Everyone was stunned and ecstatic, "Where?" Where is Your Excellency Lieutenant General? ”
Captain Watanabe was stunned, his face full of hesitation, "In...... In the ......"
Nozawa Osa pulled out his saber with a "choked" sound, and stared at Captain Watanabe with a hideous expression, "Watanabe-kun, lead the way!" ”
Captain Watanabe was taken aback, and quickly nodded, "Osa...... Lieutenant General He...... Can you bring fewer people? ”
"Huh?" Nozawa Osa was stunned for a moment, and found that the situation was wrong, so he nodded hurriedly, "Muto-kun will go with me, and the others will stay put." ”
Captain Watanabe was relieved and quickly turned around to lead the way.
Bypassing the main house, to the backyard, passing through a side house that burned beyond recognition, in a remote thatched house, Nozawa Osa finally met Lieutenant General Ogisu, and immediately understood Captain Watanabe's painstaking efforts!
The hut was dimly lit, and Lieutenant General Ogisu and Major General Miyamoto stood with their backs to the door, two guards pouring water on their heads, and the sewage flowed down their white bodies, and the stench was terrible.
There was a small wooden barrel next to the door, the barrel was soaked in military uniforms, the water had turned black, and the stench was overflowing!
Nozawa Osa understood in an instant, quickly turned around, stopped Muto Nakasa, who was following closely, shook his head, and quietly retreated.
Muto Nakasa was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed...... He got it too!
It turned out that when Huanghua Liao Heiniu and others attacked the headquarters, Lieutenant General Ogizhou and Major General Miyamoto burned important documents, smashed the radio station, and hurried out the back door.
The two of them were also a little anxious, opened the door of the backyard, but turned back to the side courtyard, but the side courtyard was not safe...... Who can guarantee that they will not go from room to room?
Suddenly, the two saw the latrine in the corner of the yard, and their eyes lit up and they hurriedly walked over...... It may not be possible to hide in the thatched house, and the manure tank is safer!
Who would have thought that a dignified lieutenant general would hide in a cesspool?
In this way, the two fish that slipped through the net escaped by hiding in the manure tank!
