Chapter 274: Three Thousand Puppet Army Prisoners

The headquarters of the Potian detachment covers an area of more than ten acres, surrounded by walls, and most of the houses inside are brick structures, or one- or two-story buildings with wooden structures.

Many buildings collapsed under the impact of M4 Sherman tanks. Seeing this, a large number of little devils in the headquarters of the Potian detachment ran out of the houses one after another, running around in a panic, and some of them didn't even have weapons.

There were already a lot of fighters entering the entire headquarters, the number was far greater than the little devils in the headquarters, the soldiers were holding Garand rifles, or Thomson submachine guns, shooting at the little devils, and the machine guns on the top of some tanks were also constantly firing.

In the command hall, many little devils were in a panic, and Shigeichi Harata also showed a trace of despair on his face. At this time, an M4 tank rushed in from the main entrance of the command hall, smashing the solid wood gate to pieces, sending sawdust flying.

Seeing such a behemoth rushing in, the little devils in the command hall were startled, and looked at this tank blankly, and this tank rushed to the center of the hall under the blank eyes of the little devils.

At this time, many of the little devils in the command hall reacted, including some devil officers, who screamed and ran outside in a swarm.

A large number of soldiers were coming in through the door of the command hall, the soldiers were holding their weapons, watching the little devils running over, the soldiers shot fiercely, and suddenly, these little devils who ran out fell to the ground.

After the M4 tank, which had stormed into the command hall, came to a stop, the hatch on the top of the tank opened. One of the soldiers wielded the Browning heavy machine gun on the tank and fired fiercely at the little devils in the hall, and the dense and thick bullets made the little devils flash with blood and flesh flying.

Shigeichi Harata was smashed by several thick machine-gun bullets. There were several big holes in his chest, and half of his head was also knocked away, and he looked miserable, and he fell straight to the ground.

With at least a dozen M4 tanks rushing in, and with a large number of fighters rushing in, the battle inside the entire Hatian detachment headquarters was simply one-sided. A large number of Japanese auxiliaries in the command had low combat effectiveness and could only be shot by the fighters.

The fighting in the entire Jiaxing area basically ended by noon. More than 14,000 people of the Botian detachment were basically wiped out, and thousands of puppet troops in the Jiaxing area were killed 1 or 2,000 and more than 3,000 were captured. There are also some people who don't know where they have gone.

These puppet armies were completely frightened. For the first time in their lives, they experienced such a battle, and some puppet soldiers saw that something was wrong, threw down their weapons, took off their uniforms and ran away without a trace.

Some of the more than 3,000 puppet soldiers who were captured will be shot, and most of them will be used as coolies for labor reform to contribute to the construction of Hangzhou and Ningbo.

Nanking. General Headquarters of the Central China Front.

Okamura Ninji never imagined that the new 6th Army would be silent for several months. Suddenly launched an attack on himself, and just over half an hour ago, Okamura Ninji received a telegram for help from the Hatada detachment.

Okamura Ninji said that Habata Shigeichi must have encountered a situation that was extremely difficult to resist before sending a report to him, and the telegram also mentioned that the new 6th Army had dispatched a huge tank group and at least tens of thousands of infantry.

The chief of staff of the devil hurriedly walked in from outside, and personally came over to report: "Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, I have personally ordered the troops in Shanghai and Suzhou to rush over in accordance with your order. ”

Hearing this, Okamura nodded his head, feeling a little relieved. Shanghai and Suzhou are relatively close to Jiaxing, and there are railways and highways to reach Jiaxing, it is expected that after three or five hours, the reinforcements will arrive in Jiaxing, and after a few hours, a large number of reinforcements will arrive in Jiaxing to meet the Botian detachment.

After the report, seeing that Okamura Ningji's face was calm, the chief of staff of the devil said with a little pride: "Your Excellency the commander-in-chief, you are really wise, you have built a road network and repaired the railways between these cities, and the mobility of our troops has been greatly enhanced, and the various units have basically become a whole. ”

There are unimpeded roads and railways, and the distance between these cities is not far, once there is a war in one place, the Japanese troops in the rest of the places will quickly maneuver and reinforce each other, and the divisions and regiments echo each other from a distance, which is basically equivalent to a large whole.

Okamura Ninji was also slightly proud, proud of his strategy and vision.

However, Okamura Ninji didn't have long to be proud, and a devil Dazuo hurriedly walked in, his face was all gray, like a mourning examine, and reported angrily: "Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, the Hatian detachment sent a farewell message, and all the jade of the Hatian detachment is broken!" ”

Whole jade shattered!!

"It can't be." Okamura almost shouted loudly, snatched the message, hurriedly read it, and then sat on the chair weakly, as if all the strength of his body had flowed away in an instant.

The devil's staff officer also took the telegram and looked at it, and immediately looked sad, and didn't think that there would be no more than 10,000 people in a detachment in such a short time.

You must know that the Botian detachment is equipped with a lot of anti-aircraft guns, and there are tanks, anti-aircraft machine guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, and light and heavy machine guns.

If he hadn't seen this telegram with his own eyes, the chief of staff of the devil would never have believed it, and after reading this telegram, the chief of staff of the devil said sadly: "Your Excellency the commander-in-chief, what should we do?" ”

Okamura Ninji sat on the chair weakly, and said weakly: "Withdraw all our reinforcements, it's too late, it's too late." ”

The Botian detachment has been completely wiped out, and there is no point in reinforcing the Jiaxing area

At noon, at Suzhou Railway Station, a large number of little devils were boarding the train, a large number of weapons and equipment were being moved to the car, and a major general of the devils was looking at his troops in high spirits, this was the little devils who reinforced Jiaxing by train.

A devil messenger hurriedly ran over and stood up in front of the devil major general. He said loudly: "Your Excellency the brigade commander, the latest order from the division headquarters is to stop reinforcements. ”

Stop reinforcements?

The devil major general looked at the devil communication soldier with a suspicious expression. After a long time, I slowly figured out that my reinforcements must be meaningless and need to be stopped, maybe the Potian detachment is finished. Thinking that the Botian detachment might be wiped out, Major General Devil's face gradually became ugly, and he no longer had the vigor and smugness just now.

On a road from Suzhou to Jiaxing, it was dusty. A long convoy of little devils is hurrying forward, the long convoy has no end in sight, and every big truck is full of little devils.

A devil communications soldier. Walking on his lap legs, he caught up with a large truck, and reported breathlessly: "Your Excellency, Wing Commander, the latest order." Stop reinforcements. Return the way you came. ”

The captain of the devil wing who was riding in the cab of the truck couldn't believe that there was such an order, less than an hour ago it was an order to rush reinforcements, and now it was an order to "stop reinforcements and return the same way".

The captain of the devil wing thought for a while, and said helplessly: "Convey the order and order everyone to stop reinforcements." Return the way you came. ”

The little devils who reinforced in the direction of Shanghai also received the same order. After receiving such an order, many little devil officers were puzzled, and a few devil officers seemed to understand something, and after receiving such an order, they sighed

Ye Feng and Guo Weiquan were riding in an armored command car, and at this time, they were rushing along the highway towards Jiaxing City.

"Junza, the battle just now is so beautiful, this is the most beautiful battle we have fought." Guo Weiquan sat next to Ye Feng, and it was difficult to hide his joy in his heart.

Ye Feng nodded, and quickly eliminated the Botian detachment Ye Feng also felt refreshed, Jiaxing City was restored, and Ye Feng personally went to Jiaxing City to visit the soldiers who participated in the battle just now.

Ye Feng personally went to the Jiaxing area, condolences and visited the soldiers of the first armored division and the third infantry division who participated in the battle.

Ye Feng visited a lot of soldiers in the area of Jiaxing City, and also personally visited the wounded soldiers and encouraged them.

After visiting the soldiers, Ye Feng also went to see thousands of captured puppet soldiers.

Capturing so many puppet troops at once, Ye Feng's mind was opened, and in Ye Feng's eyes, these more than 3,000 puppet troops were all strong laborers that could be used for various constructions.

When Guo Weiquan accompanied Ye Feng to the southern suburbs of Jiaxing, a large number of puppet soldiers were holding their heads and squatting on the ground.

"Good military seat, good chief of staff, the second battalion of the first regiment of the third infantry division is being ordered to guard the prisoners, please instruct." A major battalion commander trotted all the way over, stood upright, saluted, and reported loudly.

Ye Feng said angrily: "Continue to take care." ”

So many captives, all bowed their heads and were dejected, Ye Feng felt a burst of disdain in his heart, and couldn't help pouting, his face was full of disdain, this is a group of spineless Chinese, willing to be the lackeys of little devils.

It happened that there was a two- or three-meter-high ridge in front of this group of captives, and Ye Feng climbed on it, at this time, most of these captives saw Ye Feng, and when they saw Ye Feng wearing a general's uniform, they seemed to understand who it was.

Ye Feng saw these captives looking at him, and secretly said in his heart, this time I want to teach you to be a qualified Chinese, so Ye Feng's voice was loud, and most people could hear it clearly.

Ye Feng spoke loudly to these captives, talking about the cruelty of Little Japan and the bloody sons and daughters of China who sacrificed for the Anti-Japanese War

Gradually, most of these prisoners looked guilty, and gradually lowered their heads, especially those ordinary puppet army prisoners, as well as those low-level officers of the puppet army.

Looking at the expressions of these puppet soldiers, Ye Feng knew that his speech was very successful, and from now on, most of these captives would be good Chinese.

After Ye Feng finished speaking, among these captives, applause gradually rang out, even if it was sparse.
