Although he was not satisfied with Tsuruta Nunan's answer in his heart, there was nothing he could do at the moment, and he could only stop for the time being to find out the trace of Kamishiro who had run away from the Tsuchihachi Road. However, as for Tsuruta Nunan's suggestion, he just said coldly: "Tsuruta-kun, I believe you once this time." But I hope you don't treat me like a monkey and remember your promise today. ”

"Tsuruda-kun, you are the head of the division's intelligence department. I can't be calm here, and your life won't be too easy. Don't forget, you and I are in the same boat. As the head of the intelligence department, if the activities of the Tuba Road in Hubei are too rampant, I think Your Excellency the division commander will be just as dissatisfied with you. ”

There was some threat to Kanshiro Rakuga, but Tsuruta Numan smiled and didn't say anything. For him, this threat from Kamishiro Rakuai is worthless. Compared to Kamishiro Rakuai, after a fierce battle in the middle of the night, Tsuruta Numan was more interested in the leader of this Tsuchihachi Road.

As early as the time of the ruined temple, Tsuruta Numan was keenly aware that that guy and his subordinates did not go far, and should have been hiding under the noses of Kawashiro and himself or around, and it might even be within sight.

He still knows the performance of the Type 97 grenade of the imperial system, which can be made into a deceitful mine, but after pulling the safety bolt, it cannot last too long. Judging by the explosion at the location of the machine gunners who were deployed as cover in the second echelon, the gang did not leave for long. In such a short period of time, they could not have gone far.

But Luo Hekanshiro almost didn't turn the ruined temple, along with the surrounding hills, upside down, and didn't find any trace of this guy. On the contrary, he also took a squad of the garrison, plus a few loyal warriors of the empire, which is enough to show that this guy is quite cunning.

From before this guy left, in such a hasty time, he still had the ability to give such a series of traps to Kamishiro Luohe. The location of the machine gun positions of the second echelon was judged so accurately. It is enough to show the difficulty of this guy and the high military quality, as well as the understanding of the Imperial Army squadron level mountain attack techniques.

And this guy was able to bypass the ambush circle he set up on the road and go straight to the periphery of Wangjiagou. If it weren't for himself to persuade Luo Hekan Shiro to use the absolute advantage of troops in his hands to be on the periphery of Wangjiagou, the focus was on the Beishan line, and set up a second ambush circle, I'm afraid that if it didn't work well this time, Luo Hekan Shiro would suffer a greater loss.

But even so, this guy touched the periphery of the ambush circle, and even took out a machine-gun alert position under the noses of the ambush troops. If he hadn't overstepped his authority to set for the ambush troops every ten minutes, he contacted the outer positions and discovered the anomaly, maybe this guy would not have been discovered when he infiltrated his own position.

And after this fierce battle, this guy was able to support such a long time with more than thirty poorly trained soldiers, besieged by most of the troops of a squadron and garrison of the Imperial Army. Although more than half of the dead and wounded, they still let this guy escape.

Although most of the casualties were the garrison, they faced a group of obviously undertrained Tu Ba Lu. In the case of absolute superior equipment, the more than 20 loyal imperial soldiers who were killed and wounded in this battle were undoubtedly quite embarrassing to their old classmate. If you don't find and solve this opponent as soon as possible, I'm afraid that my old classmate will never have peace.

Tsuruta Numasu is determined and ready to speed up the pace of his plan. This old classmate of mine was not admitted to the Army University, and under the current system of the Army, there is basically no hope of being promoted to general. But he is a graduate of the Army University, although he has not been mixed into the saber group, but after all, he is a graduate of the Army University.

The door to promotion to general is still open to oneself. However, after all, the achievements made by engaging in intelligence are not as obvious as solid combat achievements. When I chose to get the intelligence port, I was destined to put in more effort. Therefore, the accumulation of military merits at the moment has become an important step towards the level of general. Since he needs military merit, then the first knife will be opened from this Tubalu.

Lieutenant General Seiichi Kita, who has always been engaged in intelligence work, and Tsuruta Numasu, who is a glorious example for himself, knew that he would not stay in the 36th Division for too long. As a graduate of the Imperial Land University, you will not be working in a division for too long. In this short period of time, the necessary feats to climb up were no less urgent for Tsuruta Numan than for Kamishiro Rakuai.

Tsuruta Numan made up his mind over there, and after many fruitless searches here, Kamishiro Rakuai could only accept the advice of his old classmate, whether he was willing or not. This time, he almost drained all the troops in Hubei, except for the regiment of the Jinnan National Army stationed in Huxi.

In particular, all the mobile forces of Luoma, Qiaokou, and Pingchuan, which are close to the Taihang Mountains, as well as a county to the north. Plus the main force of the Hubei County Garrison Brigade, as well as a multi-squadron of the Outer County Garrison Brigade. If you delay outside for too long, you will not be able to take advantage of the eight roads in other directions.

Here, Luo Hekanshiro collected his troops and retreated, and after the Japanese puppet army retreated, Li Ziyuan returned to Wangjiagou with his troops. Faced with the ruins of the current moment, the mountains of corpses piled up in several rooms and wells, but fell into a burst of indescribable pain.

When he returned to Wangjiagou, Li Ziyuan realized why he didn't see any people in the village, let alone hear the gunshots of the Japanese puppet army massacring the villagers. In order to cover up their means of slaughter, in order to lure themselves into the bait, the Japanese army took all the villagers into several houses in batches, killed them directly with bayonets, and then set fire to the houses and burned down with the corpses.

Or give a bayonet and push it into a well. In the ruins of several larger houses in the village, the corpses of villagers are piled up. In several wells in the village, the bodies of the elderly and children were piled up at the edge of the wells. The corpses of young adults were still tied with ropes for fear of their resistance.

In the night raid, the villagers were separated from each other, and the Japanese puppet army dispatched more troops than the number of residents of Wangjiagou. In the face of the bayonet, the villagers who woke up from their deep sleep were basically incapable of resisting. The few young men who tried to resist were either killed directly on the kang with bayonets, or tied up with ropes and dragged to the village to be slaughtered en masse.

The Japanese puppet army not only killed more than 100 villagers in the entire Wangjiagou, but also in order to cover up their slaughter of the village and lure themselves into being fooled, they did not shoot but only used bayonets. I gave myself the impression that there was no gun fired in the village, and there may be some hope that the villagers would come out. After taking them, they not only set up two ambush rings outside the village, but also maintained a force in the village.

If it weren't for the fact that he was in the middle of the battle, he would have ensured the safety of the rear road even if he was in danger, and specially arranged two Jinzao submachine guns plus two grenadiers to control the back. Coupled with the familiarity with the terrain, maybe he and the first squadron will really be surrounded by the Japanese puppet army on the north mountain.

But even if the loss is within the range that can be beared, for Li Ziyuan, he has never fought such a bad battle. The first squadron suffered more than half of the casualties and almost lost its combat effectiveness. The second squadron that went to rescue the people of Wangjiagou was almost bitten by the Japanese puppet army who were waiting for the rabbit in ambush in the village.

If Guan Li hadn't been more alert, when he made a detour to Wangjiagou, he inadvertently found the Japanese puppet army ambushed in the village, and he never dared to go deeper. The entire second squadron is probably going to have to get in. This Japanese puppet army was too cunning, and they fought the North Mountain, but they did not attract all the strength of the Japanese puppet army.

However, although Guan Li's caution rescued the second squadron, after he found that he could not enter the village, he wandered outside the village and lost a lot of time. It wasn't until Li Ziyuan was kidnapped by Liu Lianming like a kidnapper and rushed out of the encirclement that the Japanese puppet army was about to complete that Guan Li made up his mind to retreat.

However, after learning about Guan Li's encounter on the periphery of Wangjiagou, Li Ziyuan did not blame him. Li Ziyuan believed that Guan Li did not act hastily and at least kept the second squadron. Because he knew that compared to the first squadron that still had some combat effectiveness, the second squadron, which had more recruits at the moment, was far worse in combat effectiveness. Once discovered and entangled by the Japanese puppet army, there is basically no possibility of survival.

Therefore, Li Ziyuan did not have any reproach for Guan Li, he only complained in his heart that he had gone too smoothly during this time, causing himself to underestimate the enemy ideologically and underestimate the cunning of the Japanese puppet army. Not only was he able to rescue the villagers of Wangjiagou, but he also took most of the first squadron, and this battle gave him a solid lesson.

In his heart, Li Ziyuan, who was extremely painful because he was unable to rescue more than 100 villagers in Wangjiagou, buried hundreds of villagers who were slaughtered in Wangjiagou. At the foot of the east mountain of the village, the meat mound tomb where they were buried together, and the tomb of more than a dozen sacrificed soldiers such as Du Dazhuang buried on the side, they didn't say a word, and they knelt there with red eyes.

looked at Li Ziyuan, who didn't say a word and knelt there. Chang Juan and Guan Li, who were behind him, invariably saw the worry in each other's eyes. They were all worried about whether this battle would be too big a blow to Li Ziyuan. Especially since Chang Juan took office, it is the first time she has seen Li Ziyuan so decadent.

But Chang Juan wanted to persuade him, but Guan Li shook his head gently. After being silent for a long time, Guan Li said: "Instructor, none of us can help him in this matter, so we can only rely on him to get out." Captain Li is a person of great affection, and the fact that he was not able to save the people of Wangjiagou in this battle was too stimulating for him. ”

"However, he joined the Red Army at the age of fourteen, and he has experienced many more big battles and small battles than we have experienced, and he also crawled out of the pile of dead people. I thought, give him a little time and he will come out, I have this confidence in him Captain Li. And I also believe that after this battle, he will truly experience the difference between guerrilla warfare and the regular army. ”

Regarding Guan Li's words, Chang Juan, who did not leave Li Ziyuan's back, said: "Brother Guan, it's not that I don't have confidence in him. It's just that although I am younger, I also know that heart disease is the most difficult to treat. If he can't get out for a long time, then what will the troops do. Don't forget that he is the captain and the military commander of this unit. If he can't pull himself together, what will the troops do? ”
