Chapter 708: Coming to naught

Although it was already early in the morning, Itagaki Seishiro still didn't feel a little sleepy, because whether it was the Jiujiang battlefield or the Wuhan battlefield, it was the last moment, in the Wuhan battlefield, the commander of the ninth infantry wing of the ninth division drove hundreds of miles, and before it got dark, he had already hit the city of Wuchang, and in the Jiujiang battlefield, Xu Rui would soon be the head. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

With a long stretch, Seishiro Itagaki said to the combat staff officer beside him: "Shimizu-san, after tonight, we can have a good night's sleep." ”

"Hello." A staff officer named Qing Shui said, "From the analysis of the current situation, whether it is the Wuhan battlefield or the Jiujiang battlefield, the imperial army has already won the victory. Then, Staff Officer Qing Shui lost no time in slapping the horse, "Your Excellency Commander is worthy of the courage of the army, if you don't turn the tide this time, the imperial army is afraid that it will be in big trouble." ”

"Where, Qing Shui Sangyan is serious." Itagaki Seishiro waved his hand again and again when he heard this, but he was in a good mood.

The victory in the Battle of Wuhan certainly made Itagaki Seishiro happy, but Itagaki cared more about Xu Rui, after all, Xu Rui was a man who was called the sworn enemy of the empire by His Majesty the Emperor! Although Xu Rui and the 799th Regiment are still on the run until now, Seishiro Itagaki is confident enough that he will be able to eradicate Xu Rui in one fell swoop this time.

Seishiro Itagaki was complacent when Kamefu Ueno hurriedly walked in.

"Your Excellency, Commander." Ueno Kamefu paused and said, "I just received a report from the Okahara team that the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army, which was heading south along the west bank of Poyang Lake, suddenly turned around and returned north. ”

"Yo Si." Seishiro Itagaki said happily, "Have you finally turned back?" ”

Ueno Kamefu continued: "However, the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army did not go to the direction of De'an and Mahuiling, but returned the same way and went to Xingzi County again. ”

"Really?" Seishiro Itagaki drew a line on the map with a pencil and said coldly, "Is it real?" It is still Xu Rui's tricks, you can ignore it, Xu Rui and the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army are willing to run back and forth, just let them run, but the imperial army does not need to follow them back and forth to consume physical strength. ”

"Hello." Ueno Kamefu shook his head heavily, and said in a low voice, "But Your Excellency Commander, if the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army raids Xingzi at night, it will be a big deal, I heard that there is a large bamboo forest outside Xingzi County, in case the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army takes down Xingzi County, and then cuts down the bamboo and builds a bamboo raft......"

Ueno Kamefu still has some ability, and he thought that the Sichuan army might build a bamboo raft to smuggle across Poyang Lake.

However, Itagaki Seishiro seems to be in the chest, because he has already arranged it.

"It doesn't matter." Seishiro Itagaki waved his hand and said, "I have already contacted the navy, the river defense detachment of the Third Fleet will rush to Xingzi to garrison, and by the way, block the water surface on the west bank of Poyang Lake, Xu Rui and the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army will be greatly disappointed if they plan to escape from the waterway." ”

Just as Seishiro Itagaki was speaking, the main force of the 799th Regiment had already arrived at Xingzi.

However, with the arrival of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army, there was another group of uninvited guests.

A detachment of five gunboats of the Jiangfang Detachment of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet slowly approached the Xingzi Wharf, and the sound of huge motors and the bright gas lights immediately attracted the attention of the Sichuan troops on the shore of the lake.

At this moment, Xu Rui was taking the soldiers of the Sichuan Army to carry the bamboo raft to the shore of Fanyang Lake.

Gunboats of little devils! Xu Rui's heart tightened, and he quickly ordered the Sichuan army to carry back the bamboo felling that had been dragged to the shore of the lake, and then hide it in the grass.

Leng Tiefeng, Han Feng and several other wolf teeth, as well as Zhao Baishi, immediately gathered to Xu Rui's side.

The sudden appearance of the devil's gunboat caught the Sichuan army a little off guard, and they didn't know what to do.

Xu Rui was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that the devil's gunboat would not appear sooner or later, but suddenly appeared when they were about to smuggle! However, this is also a blessing in misfortune, if they cross to the center of the lake and suddenly encounter the devil's gunboat, it will be over.

Leng Tiefeng said in a deep voice: "Old Xu, why don't you withdraw?" ”

In the face of five gunboats and the devil's pursuers who may catch up at any time, the wisest thing to do is to retreat quickly.

Because the Japanese Navy's standing gunboats are about 100 tons, with a crew of 40 people, and the weapon system includes two rapid-fire guns of 60mm caliber, plus four heavy machine guns of 7.7mm caliber, and five gunboats are ten guns and 20 heavy machine guns, the intensity of the firepower is already very terrifying, and what is worse is that the Sichuan army can only be beaten and cannot fight back.

Because the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army did not have the heavy firepower to penetrate the armor of the gunboat.

"Don't rush yet!" There was an inexplicable cold light flashing in Xu Rui's eyes.

Because of fighting side by side for a long time, Leng Tiefeng and Xu Rui have cultivated a deep tacit understanding, and seeing Xu Rui like this, Leng Tiefeng immediately knew what he wanted to do.

At that moment, Leng Tiefeng's face changed and said, "Old Xu, it's too risky to do this!" ”

Xu Rui smiled and said: "Fighting a war was originally a knife licking blood business, how can you say that you are risky?" ”

Han Feng, Zhuanshan Leopard and Zhao Baishi next to them were confused, and they didn't know what Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng were talking about.

At that moment, Xu Rui said to Leng Tiefeng: "Veteran, you go to the dock and turn on the signal light!" ”

Seeing that Xu Rui had made up his mind, Leng Tiefeng didn't say anything more, climbed the signal tower, and turned on the signal light.

Almost every pier has a signal tower with signal lights installed to communicate at night.

With a long whistle, the gunboat that came first signaled to the dock to ask for docking, and Leng Tiefeng immediately flashed the signal light twice, meaning that everything was normal and the dock was allowed.

In order to create the illusion that everything is normal, Xu Rui found a squad of Sichuan soldiers to change into devil uniforms and be responsible for vigilance.

Seeing the heavily loaded sentry above, the five devil gunboats really no longer doubted, and slowed down and slowly approached.

Outside the north gate of Xingzi County, the main force of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army finally arrived out of breath, but before they could breathe, Xu Rui's order followed, ordering them to rush to Xingzi Wharf immediately, no way, the main force of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army gritted their teeth and arrived at the wharf again.

However, a veteran is a veteran after all, although he is tired to death, but as soon as Xu Rui gave the order, he immediately prepared for battle, the bullet quickly hit the chamber, and the grenade was placed in front of him.

A stiff light and heavy machine gun was also quickly erected.

Zhao Baishi half-squatted beside Xu Rui, his heart was so nervous that he was about to jump out of his chest, at this time, Zhao Baishi finally knew what Xu Rui wanted to do, Xu Rui was really bold, he actually wanted to lure the devils on the gunboat ashore and then concentrate on annihilation, and then capture these five gunboats!

If these five gunboats were really captured, then the next thing would be much simpler, and they didn't need to take any bamboo rafts, they would directly cross Poyang Lake by devil gunboats, that is, after crossing Poyang Lake, these five gunboats would become a problem, and it would be a pity to blow them up, but it would not be easy to save them.

It's funny to say, Zhao Baishi even began to take care of the gunboat that hadn't arrived yet.

However, Zhao Baishi's happy troubles will eventually come to naught, because the special combat team of Xiaoluyuan Junsi also followed the main force of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army and also arrived outside Xingzi County.

(Dividing Line)

Xiaoluyuan Junsi didn't know that Xu Rui had taken a battalion of the Sichuan army, and all the wolf teeth were separated from the army, he also thought that Xu Rui and all the wolf teeth were still with the main force of the Sichuan army, so they didn't dare to chase too close, but followed behind from a considerable distance, Xiaoluyuan Junsi didn't dare to be careless, he knew better than anyone else how powerful the wolf teeth were.

Due to the long distance, when Okahara Junsi led eight special forces of the special combat team over the Dongguling Mountains and appeared in the wilderness north of Xingzi County, the main force of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army had already spread its net at Xingzi Wharf, and the five gunboats of the Jiangfang Detachment of the Third Fleet of the Japanese Navy were about to enter the Xingzi East Gate Wharf.

Seeing the quiet Xingzi County under the night in front of him, Xiaoluyuan Junsi frowned, shouldn't it, the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army has obviously crossed the Donggu Ridge and entered the vicinity of Xingzi, but why is there nothing abnormal in the defenders of Xingzi County? Could it be that the main force of the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army bypassed outside the north gate of Xingzi County?

No, if the Sichuan army doesn't plan to attack Xingzi, why bother going around this circle?

Takeo Yamagami also thought about going with Kokahara Toshisi, and whispered: "Captain, could it be that the Sichuan army has laid an ambush outside Xingzi County, and is ready to wait until the dead of night to launch a surprise attack?" ”

"It's possible." Xiaoluhara Junsi bowed his head slightly, then shook his head again and said, "But I always feel that something is not right. ”

"Something isn't quite right?" Takeo on the mountain frowned and said, "I think it's quite normal, captain, you shouldn't be suspicious, just this moment of kung fu, the 799th Regiment of the Sichuan Army has already defeated Xingzi County, right?" Besides, even if the Sichuan army really defeated Xingzi County, there should always be gunshots, right? But we didn't hear any gunshots just now. ”

Takeo Yamagami said that he had no intention, but after hearing this, Kokahara Junsi's face changed greatly.

Xiaoluyuan Junsi Huo Ran said: "I understand, Xingzi County is afraid that it will be lost a long time ago!" ”

"Xingzi County has long been lost?" Takeo Yamagami asked blankly, "What do you mean?" ”

Igarashi Cui and a few other devil special forces were also confused, and they didn't know what Toshimi Okahara was talking about.

Kokahara Junsi didn't care about explaining to the mountain warriors, so he pulled out his pistol with his backhand, and then fired two shots at the sky horn, these two crisp gunshots instantly shattered the silence of the night, but Kokahara Junsi was afraid that the devils on the gunboat did not hear the gunshots, and snatched the submachine gun from the mountain Takeo and shot at the sky!
