Chapter 8 Stop Moving
Another half an hour had passed since the three people who were hanging from the tree were rescued, and the four people bitten by the poisonous snake had already developed poisoning reactions of varying severity.
Although the devil military doctor carried out emergency rescue measures such as cleaning the wounds and squeezing the poisonous blood of the wounded in time, because he did not have anti-snake venom in his hand, whether these soldiers could survive or not ultimately depended on their own body's anti-snake venom ability.
Two of them had dilated pupils and weakened heartbeats, and the other was breathing steadily, but the person remained unconscious and never woke up. There was only one who had been bitten by a poisonous snake, and it was nothing to do, except that he lay there and did not dare to move according to the doctor's instructions, and his breathing and heartbeat were normal.
The three rescued from the tree, one broke his head and the other sprained his foot, and the two of them were basically fine.
The troops moved forward one after the other. Although the two squadron leaders gave the order to move cautiously and slowly, all kinds of traps and ambushes along the way were still endless, and it seemed that all the hunters on the nearby mountains had put all the animal hunting skills they had learned all their lives on the road taken by the Japanese army!
When a boulder suddenly rolled down from the mountain wall, the spearhead squad couldn't dodge, two people were stoned to death, and one person was seriously injured, Captain Yamada was no longer willing to continue walking!
"Suzuki-kun, we can't move forward any further! The Chinese are already full of traps on our march, and I can't watch the warriors of the imperial army blindly advance knowing that there is an ambush! Now it is imperative for our army to leave this strange mountain land as much as possible and go to the plains to fight the army of China! ”
"Hey! Yamada-kun is right, just do what you say! Witnessing the successive tragedies along the way, the impetuousness in Suzuki Jiro's heart has long disappeared without a trace, and now Yamada Shinbei is willing to obey unconditionally no matter what he says.
After the two commanders were once again aligned, the Japanese unit, which had penetrated deep into the mountains, began to turn around and turn back. This time, Captain Suzuki and Captain Yamada divided the labor, with Captain Suzuki staying in charge of the Chinese Army and Captain Yamada commanding the forward squad.
Ten minutes later, the Japanese troops stopped again, and the vanguard team found that the road signs they had left along the way seemed to have been vandalized!
After receiving the news, Jiro Suzuki ran to the forward team in a hurry. Yamada Shinbei pointed to two diametrically opposed markings on the two trees and told Captain Suzuki: We seem to be lost!
Yamada Kenyì soldiers are divided into two ways, and Suzuki is resolutely opposed! Jiro Suzuki, who has always been known for his impatience, showed enough calm at this time, and he told Sù Yamada Shinbei: Dividing troops in a strange environment with complex terrain is no less than suicide! Now that the first two road signs appear, you will divide your troops, who can guarantee that the next road sign will not be two or four? Do you want to divide it forever?
The correct thing to do is to stay where you are and ask for reinforcements, while sending scouts to scout along the two signposts and then pick a side to go on resolutely! In any case, the main forces of the troops should remain intact! Suzuki was clearly more experienced, and Yamada was convinced by him.
The shrewd devils of the five on one side were sent out, and Suzuki Jiro and Yamada Shinbei stayed where they were with a large army to report the situation to the brigade headquarters and ask for reinforcements at the same time!
The devil stays where he is and doesn't leave? After Hu Fei got the latest news of the devil, he understood what the devil was thinking after a little thought, didn't they just get lost and didn't know where to go. That's good, you don't know which way to go, I'll help you!
Hu Fei ordered Ji Jinbiao and Xiong Wei to lead their cavalry troops and take turns to launch a surprise attack on the devils who stayed in place! If you don't go, I'll beat you up!
After a series of ambushes along the way, coupled with the fact that they are now lost, the morale of the devils has dropped to the lowest point. Even at the usual most pleasant meal time, the devils are listless. Yamada and Suzuki are still discussing the question of what to do next, and the telegram for help has been sent, but there has been no response yet, and I don't know if the brigade headquarters has received it.
The captain of the 1st Independent Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Army, Hasegawa Miyoji Osa, was leading his troops to storm Panshan, and after Leng Buding received a telegram from Wangjiashan asking for help, even Hasegawa Osa, who had experienced a hundred battles, was taken aback! He has already sent two squadrons to Wangjiashan, why do Suzuki Jiro and Yamada Shinbei still need reinforcements? Could it be that these two guys fought on the battlefield because of disagreements?
Miyoji Hasegawa resolutely did not believe that two elite infantry squadrons would encounter a strong enemy that could not be done! The special high class and scouts had already been scouted, and the Chinese army in Wangjiashan had only one miscellaneous cavalry brigade, numbering less than a thousand. The two infantry squadrons he sent over should have had an easy time cleaning up that ragtag cavalry brigade, but what the hell was going on there?
Hasegawa Daisa, who urgently needed to know the truth, sent a telegram of inquiry back to the Japanese troops in Wangjiashan, asking them what had happened to the troops? What happened to Wangjiashan?
Captain Suzuki and Captain Yamada, who were already in a hurry, patiently reported their experience to His Excellency Osa, and at the same time asked Osato to send reinforcements as soon as possible! Of course, if they could get the aviation to guide the way, these two wouldn't mind leading their troops out of the encirclement alone!
Aviation? Hasegawa Osa, who received this telegram, laughed angrily. Seventy percent of Japan's air forces are now on the Songhu front, and the reason why the remaining 30 percent can be sent to the Jinsui battlefield is because the two real lieutenant generals, Hideki Tojo and Seishiro Itagaki, are also on the Jinsui battlefield!
It's not enough for these few aviation troops to just support the main battlefield of Tianzhen, and a small Wang Jiashan actually wants the aviation to go over and show them the way? How dare you think about it! Of course, as a direct superior, Hasegawa Miyoji must have hoped that the two troops under his command could break out safely, and he would not be able to send this telegram of refusal under any circumstances.
Hasegawa Osa forwarded the telegram to the brigade commander, Major General Sakai Hoji, and let the brigade commander decide whether to send aviation troops over or not, he Hasegawa Osa is not a villain.
The result was contrary to Hasegawa's expectations, and after Sakai Hoji learned that two Japanese infantry squadrons were in distress at Wangjiashan, he immediately sent two reconnaissance planes to help. Although Major General Sakai's troops fought the outskirts of Tianzhen, they were still under control after all, and if Wangjiashan's two squadrons couldn't come back, then something really happened!
Major General and Dazuo have different levels of consideration for problems, and the way they handle things is also completely different!
When the devils were sending telegrams back and forth, Ji Jinbiao and Xiong Wei's cavalry troops had already begun to attack! The cavalry rushed to the front like a wind, and there was a lot of commotion with guns and grenades, and after beating the devils into chaos, the cavalry troops withdrew like the wind.
The cavalry ran fast, and the devils who reacted were too late to pursue. When Ji Jinbiao ran away with the cavalry company, the devil curled up like a wounded beast and licked his wounds silently.
