Shahaizi is already on the edge of the desert, and the reason why this gang of bandits set up their base camp here is that they want to go to the grassland to rob if they want to enter, and they can enter the desert to hide when they retreat. Because the strength of this gang of bandits is relatively weak, and the relationship with the Mongolian upper echelons is not so close, and sometimes they still need the protection of the fox king's bandits, so they usually have to pay tribute to the fox king's bandits, and the location is also closer to the fox king's big sand mound. In fact, these three bandits are a community of destiny that works independently and colludes with each other. With the fox prince as the mainstay, he not only harmed the people, but also colluded with the upper strata of the grassland and even the Japanese devils.
When Xiao Dongxue led the team to approach Shahaizi, it was almost noon, and the vision was very open under the bright sun. The team slowly gathered behind a sand dune more than 1,000 meters away from the Shahaizi bandits, and listened to the brothers who had come to reconnoiter to introduce the situation.
"This is the last sand dune out of the desert, and when you climb the sand dune, you can faintly see the sand and sea bandits, and you will gradually enter the grassland. The Shahaizi bandits were in front of us on the left, the terrain was slightly higher than the surrounding ones, and the fortifications were not very strong, but the roads were well connected and could be escaped from all directions. ”
"We're going to surround it now and give them an escape route to the northeast. It is daytime, and there is no shelter, and the bandits may find us from afar, so we must act quickly during the siege, and pay attention to concealment, so that they can find it later. Don't fight them when the bandits find out, try to stabilize them first, and when the artillery fire is close, we will still bombard them with artillery fire. The brothers flanked the past, and when they were within range, they lay down and stood by, and attacked! Xiao Dongxue waved his hand and gave an order.
The slightly tired brothers came to their senses again at this moment, and they came out in two teams, climbed the sand dunes, and quickly outflanked the Shahaizi bandits. In the sun, the brothers who bent over and ran like leopards pounced on their prey, agile and alert. Xiao Dongxue stood on the sand dune and waved his hand to direct the artillery team to quickly enter the designated position.
"Get closer, see clearly and set up another cannon, and strive for a lethal blow!"
The artillery squad carried cannon barrels, gun carriages, and shells and quickly approached the Shahaizi bandits, but before they reached a favorable position, the team in front of the sentry had already been discovered by the bandits who were on guard.
'Bah...... The bandit sentries fired a series of warning shots to warn the outflanked GIs, of course, with the muzzles pointing upwards. The outflanked brothers didn't pay attention, just approached more cautiously.
"Don't come here, come close to us and shoot! Let your officials come and talk back. The sentry shouted, lowering the muzzle of his gun and threatening to shoot, and some of the bandits climbed the wall to target the soldiers who had come to outflank them.
"Tell them not to be presumptuous! Quickly withdraw from the lair as agreed, otherwise they will all be annihilated! Xiao Dongxue ordered.
"The bandits have spread the word that they want to evacuate in the direction of the Dashatuozi Fox Lord Bandit Gang, let's get out of the way."
"No! Let them escape in the direction we have determined, and the time must be within thirty minutes. Xiao Dongxue asked the herald to shout while directing the artillery squad to get ready.
"The bandits begged to evacuate again in the evening, saying it would take time to pack up and prepare, so let's wait."
"Leave him alone, order the outflanked brothers to quickly enter the position and be ready for battle!" Xiao Dongxue stared at the bandits in Shahaizi, she decided not to give the bandits any chance to try to retreat, and they must be hit hard: "The artillery squad is ready, aim, shoot all the shells for me, don't let the empty cannon fire, fire!" ”
With Xiao Dongxue's order, the six steel cannons once again wielded their might, pointing directly at the Shahaizi bandits. In an instant, there was a sea of fire and smoke, mixed with the howl of ghosts and wolves, resounding in the sky above the bandits in the sea of sand. The Shahaizi bandits, who didn't expect to give such a sudden and fierce blow, had no ability to fight back at all, and fled one after another.
"Quick! Give me a break out to the fox lord! The bandit leader shouted, organizing all the bandits to break through.
Under the dense artillery fire, the bandits rushed out of the bandit with horses, howling like wolves and shooting to break through.
"Concentrate your fire, knock them back, and force them to flee in the direction we designed!" Xiao Dongxue gave the order in time.
There was a fierce breakout and counter-breakout, and when there were casualties on both sides, the Shahaizi bandits were forced back into the bandits.
"Quickly approach the bandits! Shoot all the shells! Deny the bandits a chance to breathe, and force them to flee quickly. ”
Another burst of heavy artillery fire, mixed with machine-gun fire and shouts of killing, put even more deadly pressure on the bandits. The bandits gathered in the bandit cave for a while, and then obediently fled to the northeast. The bandits who ran out were only forty or fifty horsemen, and nearly half of the bandits were either killed or seriously wounded.
"Send a hundred men to pursue a ride behind, and those who are backward and those who dare to resist will be killed! The rest of the brothers rushed into the bandits, killed all the bandits, cleaned up the battlefield, and brought back all the useful supplies to me. ”
After Xiao Dongxue gave the order, he stood in place, watching his brothers ride horses to pursue the fleeing bandits and enter the bandits. She didn't want to see the tragedy of the bandits, but looked into the distance, thinking about her next move.
More than an hour later, the brothers who had gone in pursuit of the fleeing bandits returned, and the brothers who had cleaned up the battlefield also put the booty on horseback.
"Report, chased out fifty or sixty miles, and killed seventeen or eight more on the way, leaving only about thirty bandits who escaped, and did not even dare to turn back, and kept running north."
"Good! The brothers played well, go back and I'll reward you for your deeds! Now I'm tired, go back to Shagangzi to celebrate the feast! ”
The team lined up and marched nervously and orderly towards Shagangzi. After nearly a day and a night of intense running and fierce fighting, the brothers were indeed exhausted, and the horses were a little overwhelmed. Xiao Dongxue told the brothers not to be in too much of a hurry, but the brothers who won the battle were very interested, and they finally breathed a sigh after holding back for two years. Most of the brothers are leading the horses forward, talking and laughing and running forward, which is a war horse that feels sorry for themselves.
"Now it's only fifty miles away from Shagangzi, the top soldiers go back quickly to report the news, don't let the brothers who go back first be anxious. The brothers all got on their horses and tried to get back to Shagangzi when it was dark. Xiao Dongxue gave an order.
I smelled the smell of food wafting from Shagangzi from afar, and the brothers who were in charge of ambushing and returning first sent someone to greet them. The brothers who were sent out to report the situation to the headquarters and Xiaoqiu also came to greet him, and before Xiao Dongxue could ask him about the news from Xiaoqiu and the headquarters, he preemptively reported it.
"We came back shortly after you set off last night. Ihara and the two Japanese instructors also came with them, saying that they would personally give us orders to the hills, and Commander Wang would send thirty brothers to protect them. ”
"Come on, come on, why are you so nervous?"
"I heard that you acted without receiving an order, Ihara is very dissatisfied, and now he is still angry, so he has to find you back, and the brothers have to answer that they don't know where you have gone. But he just didn't give up, screaming and screaming. ”
"When I heard 'the crickets are not growing soybeans anymore,' I left it alone. Let's talk about the situation on the other side of the hill. ”
"Commander Wang led the team to be about 500 miles away from us, and it took three days for the large army to march. Commander Wang asked me to convey to you, he can drag the hillock, please rest assured to act boldly, he will support you in the back. Commander Wang once asked Xiaoqiu to move faster, saying that he was afraid that you would be in danger, and Xiaoqiu also dealt with it on the surface, but he was unwilling to move. Xiaoqiu used the radio to communicate with the above, but the secret documents were still transmitted from the rear, which was also the reason for his slow movement. Commander Wang estimated that Xiaoqiu wanted to use you to attract Commander Fang and them, and use the power of the bandits to consume our strength, so he told you to be careful and convey orders to the team behind you in time. ”
"I see. Go ahead and let the brothers who went to the ambush tell me about their situation. Xiao Dongxue sent the brother who went to the headquarters to report the situation, and called the brother who went to the ambush to understand the situation.
"We were ordered to fight an ambush, and it went well, and there were only seventy or eighty bandits who ran out, and they didn't have any combat effectiveness at all, so they just fled for their lives, and they didn't expect to be ambushed at all. The battle was resolved in just half an hour, the bandits were all killed, and only a dozen of us were wounded. It was also very smooth to go to the two bandits to clean up the battlefield, and we shipped all the useful things back, which is really a lot, and this time we got rich! ”
"Tell me about Deputy Commander Fang's situation." Xiao Dongxue asked.
"Deputy Commander Fang, they are also very smooth, they have completely annihilated the 'White Scarf' gang, and only a small number of brothers in the team were injured, and none of them were serious. After Deputy Commander Fang wiped out the 'White Scarf' bandits, he secretly returned with his team, and it is estimated that he is now halfway there. He asked you to tell you to pay attention to the plot of the hill and keep you informed of the situation. ”
"Go back to the camp to rest and hold a banquet to celebrate!" Xiao Dongxue happily called out to her brothers and led the team back.
As soon as they entered the camp, the brothers hugged and greeted each other and cheered enthusiastically. Xiao Dongxue ordered a banquet to celebrate, and the brothers were hungry. At this time, Ihara and the two Japanese instructors also came to Xiao Dongxue angrily, and they had the posture of asking the teacher to ask for guilt.
"Your, Shaw, has a great bad conscience! Don't listen to orders, act without permission, and ask for guilt! "Ihara's face is like a pig's liver.
"I received an order to come to the grassland to suppress bandits. In order to carry out the orders of the Imperial Japanese Army and not miss the fighters, it took us less than a day to attack separately and completely annihilate the three bandits of Dashatuozi Fox Wangye, 'White Scarf', and Shahaizi, and smashed their bandits. According to the order of the Imperial Japanese Army, more than 300 bandits were beheaded and killed, and not a single one was left! Brilliant achievements, mighty grassland, what is the crime? ”
"Yours, disrupt the plan of the imperial army, you can only confront the bandits, not attack! Before the order arrives, you act, no! Send it to the headquarters for accountability! ”
"I emphasize again, the order I received was to come to the grassland to suppress bandits, not to confront bandits, let alone arson! As a front-line commander, I can't delay the fighter plane, and wait for the bandits to run away before taking action, because you are still a soldier. If you are guilty, it is also you, I have sent someone to ask for instructions and orders for five days, and you have not been able to arrive for a long time, this is not the style of a soldier. ”
"Too far, too far. Yours have to wait, you have to wait. Ihara's words were not as tough as before, and his attitude seemed to be somewhat relaxed.
"The distance between the teams is too far for command and mutual cooperation, and tactical mistakes. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and I can't afford to delay the fighter plane and live up to the trust of the Imperial Japanese Army and Kogaoka Taijun. It is the duty of a soldier to fight to the death, and it is my purpose to serve the Imperial Japanese Army. The brothers are like tigers, bravely killing the enemy, the three hundred and fifty bandits who have been raging for nearly a hundred years have all been killed, and our side has not died for a while, and the grassland bandits have won a great victory in the first battle, which is worthy of praise and celebration! ”
"Yours is cunning and guilty, and you must be punished by the commander Xiaoqiu Shaozuo!"
"My record is great, and my capture is great. Don't talk nonsense, let's all go to the table and drink celebratory wine, don't spoil the interest of the brothers, and chill the brothers who bravely killed the enemy! Tomorrow, I will go to the headquarters to ask for merit and send all the captured loot over, so that Xiaoqiu Taijun will be very happy! ”
"Yours is still loyal, Ihara understands, celebrate the soldiers first, let's talk about it tomorrow, all of them are seated!"
Ihara seemed to have something to say, but under the pressure of the moment, he had to give in. He knew that Xiao Dongxue was not an ordinary person, he could wipe out more than 300 bandits with 500 troops in such a short period of time, and destroyed the bandit nest that had been operating for a hundred years, and he did not die for a while, even the imperial army may not be able to do it. Such a capable commander and such a combat-effective team are unique in the Manchukuo army, and it is no wonder that the headquarters attaches so much importance to Guo Jianglong. If they are pushed to the opposite side, the consequences will be terrible, if Guo Jianglong can personally command this team, its energy is even more difficult to estimate, and it makes sense for the headquarters to strive for Guo Jianglong. Now there are only three of them in this team, if they anger these soldiers who have just finished the battle, it will not end well, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for the headquarters to explain, not to mention that Xiao Dongxue has no obvious loopholes.
Thinking of this, Ihara acquiesced in what Xiao Dongxue did. He's not the Supreme Commander anyway, go back and let the hillock deal with it. Ihara actually became a little happy at this time, shouting that he wanted to drink with his brothers to celebrate!
When night falls, the lanterns are hung high, and the brothers gather happily to raise their glasses and drink in a lively and noisy manner. Xiao Dongxue clinked glasses with her brothers table by table to congratulate, and the joyful atmosphere floated in the night sky.
"The brothers ganged up to toast Taejun. It was Taijun's good command that allowed us to achieve a great victory in the grassland bandits. Ihara Taijun was able to personally come to the front line to command, brothers should be grateful! Xiao Dongxue raised her glass and shouted.
"The first victory of the grassland bandits, the imperial army is very happy! Xiao is good, it's good to fight, it's good to fight, it's good to kill bandits, it's good to kill all, big cheers! Ihara also stood up and shouted.
"Alright, alright, cheers!" The brothers cheered and shouted.
The brothers who had been hungry for a day gobbled up and gulped down. Xiao Dongxue looked at these bold and wild hot-blooded men with pity, thinking of Yu Jackie Chan's heavy entrustment, she was determined to take them out of the country safely. Although there is still a long way to go, and there will be more difficulties and twists and turns, her determination to move forward remains the same.
