251. Chapter 42
Xue Shifan, the commander of the second battalion of the third regiment of the Imperial Cooperative Army, saw that Jiang Yu was still hesitating, and said: "Commander Jiang, this is giving us a way to live, you quickly order surrender!" Jiang Yu said: "They let us throw away our weapons, they are cheating and surrendering, we must not be fooled, I see that the mountains in the west are not high, let's ......" Xue Shifan did not allow him to finish his words, and shouted to the soldiers around him: "Brothers, do you surrender with me, or evacuate west with Commander Jiang?" The soldiers said in unison: "Surrender, surrender......"
Jiang Yu was furious, raised his hand and put the muzzle of the gun on Xue Shifan's temple, and said, "Do you want to rebel?" Xue Shifan said proudly: "Yes, I don't want to help the devil fight the Chinese for a long time, if you are a traitor with an iron heart, then shoot!" Jiang Yu laughed cruelly, and was about to pull the trigger, when a soldier suddenly hugged him, another soldier reached out and snatched the gun, and then knocked him unconscious with a punch. Xue Shifan threw a grateful glance at the two soldiers, then stood up and threw away the gun in his hand, shouting, "Brothers, put down the gun and surrender with me." ”
When Peng Wen and Sun Dayou saw that the person walking in front was Xue Shifan, they all greeted him. Xue Shifan recognized the person, he was surprised, and when the two came closer, he put down his hands and asked, "You are not dead?" ”
Peng Wen said with a smile: "Camp Commander Xue, curse the two of us when we meet, you shouldn't be!" Sun Dayou saw Xue Shifan stunned, and said: "If the two of us die, and someone else is in command here, I'm afraid you, the battalion commander of Xue Da, will burp." After Xue Shifan asked the truth, he said: "Peng and Sun, two brothers, please talk to Liu Hui, Xia Yifan, and Chu Ba, and let me stay and fight devils with you." Peng Wen hurriedly said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
The battle here is nearing the end, but Chu Ba's side has not yet started. It turned out that Chu Ba led the first and second infantry squadrons to hide in the forest, and after the enemy disappeared out of the forest, he led people to catch up from the rear, chased out four or five miles, and ambushed a sand dune designated by Liu Hui in advance.
When the sound of artillery was faintly heard, Chu Ba's face showed an excited expression, and he said to Ye Weiqun and Cheng Keyan: "The fight is going on over there in Snake Ridge, and when the devil retreats, don't let me go." Ye Weiqun said: "The terrain here is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to defend, and it is more difficult for devils to escape from here than to ascend to the sky." ”
Chu Ba pulled out the Nether Knife and began to wipe the blade with his sleeve. Cheng Keyan said: "Captain, put away your guy!" Chu Ba smiled and said, "Sister Hui won't let me fight with the devil in close combat, but it's a pity that I have this treasure knife!" Cheng Keyan also wanted to hack a few devils to death with a big knife, his eyes rolled, and he said, "Anyway, Sister Hui is not here, why don't we have a knife addiction?" Ye Weiqun also said: "Yes! After a while, the devils will retreat, and we will first bombard them with grenadiers and machine guns for a while, and then rush over and chop all the devils with a big knife. ”
Chu Ba put away the knife and said unhappily: "You two are not allowed to come up with such bad ideas in the future, you must listen to Huimei when you fight." Or I'll demote you to a squad leader. When the two of them heard this, they suddenly didn't dare to say anything more. Twenty minutes later, Chu Ba saw the devil flying and ran over, and said, "Everyone get ready, listen to my orders, and then shoot and fire." ”
Miyahiko Takeuchi is on a mission to escape from the threat of artillery fire, gather two remnant squadrons, and prepare to kill back and retrieve biological and chemical weapons. A captain at the brigade headquarters said: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, there are less than 300 of us, and the artillery fire is very strong. A staff officer in charge of operations also said: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, you must not go back at this time." ”
Takeuchi Miyahiko pondered for a long time and said: "The biological and chemical weapons that Captain Yamazaki finally obtained, before they could exert their power, they were thrown to Liu Hui and his people in vain on me, I am unwilling!" The captain said: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, most of our brigade are newly replenished recruits, do you look at their morale, can they snatch back biological and chemical weapons in front of a strong enemy?" Takeuchi Miyahiko looked at a pair of frightened eyes, sighed secretly, and said, "Withdraw." He fled all the way, looking back from time to time. He looked back, but forgot about the front, and when he heard a piercing scream, he thought, "It's over, it's over......"
Chu Ba's two squadrons of 30 grenadiers and 30 crooked machine guns took less than ten minutes, and there were not many devils left. Takeuchi Miyahiko was seriously injured, endured severe pain and knelt up, looked around, saw that there were few soldiers left, and exclaimed in pain: "Your Excellency Yamazaki, I have not been able to fulfill your trust, and I am worthy of the title of Imperial Soldier." With that, he took out his sword and committed suicide by disembowelment.
The six devils who were not dead, at the moment when the chief fell, rushed towards the sand dunes with red eyes. Chu Ba shouted: "Everyone, stop and hand over these devils to me." When he waited for the devil to climb the sand dune, he stood up like a god, and with a wrong step, the Nether Knife in his hand flickered, and the blade caught the strong wind, cutting off the head of a devil. Immediately chopping melons and vegetables, there were a few pops, and in the blink of an eye, all the heads of the five devils flew away.
Cheng Keyan shouted excitedly: "Captain, the sword technique is invincible!" Chu Ba smiled, wiped the blood stains on the knife, and said, "The first squadron stays to clean up the battlefield, and the second squadron follows me." When he led the team to Snake Ridge, Liu Hui and Xia Yifan had already led people to seal the poison gas bomb in a stone cave forever.
The battle ended in less than an hour, with more than 1,000 officers and men of the Takeuchi Brigade killed, more than 400 people from the 3rd Regiment of the 3rd Division of the Imperial Allied Army killed under the guns, and more than 500 people were taken prisoner. Jiang Yu did not survive and died under Sun Dayou's gun.
On the way back, after listening to Peng Wen's account of the surrender of the Imperial Allied Army, Liu Hui said to Chu Ba: "Leave the prisoners, expand the squadrons to one hundred and twenty people, and the rest will form the Eighth Infantry Squadron, with Xue Shifan as the squadron leader." Chu Ba nodded and said, "What about the wounded soldiers who were caught?" Xia Yifan answered: "Heal their injuries, and when their injuries are healed, those who are willing to stay will be assigned to each team, and those who are not willing to stay will let them go." Chu Ba's eyes showed a look of concern, and said, "What should the person who let go, tell us to enter the secret road into the mountain?" Xia Yifan said with a smile: "This is easy to do, ask those wounded, if you don't want to stay after your injuries, you can blindfold them when entering and leaving the mountain." ”
The team traveled to the west of Liantai Mountain, Liu Hui whispered a few words to Yu Lan and Gu Yue, and said to Chu Ba: "Big brother, a few of us want to go back to Cuiyun Valley, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, you send someone to inspect the mountain road to Xintai, and then lay down a few secret cards, and the day after tomorrow, a few of us will come back to pick up the goods." Chu Ba knew that the mountain was simple, and there was no war in the past two days, so they naturally wanted to go home and enjoy a few days of Qingfu, so they agreed with a smile.
