Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Puppet Army's Detour
The position of the 321st Brigade was full of gunfire, and Zhang Erxiao led his troops to exchange fire with devil reinforcements.
After the artillery fire of the devils bombarded the positions of our artillery, the shells fell on the line of our infantry immediately after. Fortunately, Brigade Commander Zhang ordered his soldiers to dig trench bunkers in advance, and they had a place to hide. The soldiers lowered their heads and crawled into the freshly dug trenches to avoid the devil's shells, which exploded in front of them, left and right. As soon as the shelling stopped, the soldiers immediately grabbed their guns and fired at the charging devils.
There were only a few of the devil's shells that landed accurately in the trenches, and most of them exploded outside the trenches. Even these few also caused casualties to our troops, but our fighters gritted their teeth, and the shelling could not stop them from continuing to fight, and the soldiers held their respective weapons and responded to the bombardment of the devils with hateful bullets.
"Brigade seat, the puppet army has bypassed us two miles to the left, should we send troops to block these guys?" Qin Baoshan has been promoted to the deputy chief of staff of the 321st Brigade because of his bravery, and the deputy chief of staff Qin immediately came over to remind him of the traces of the puppet army.
"Blocked? Forget it, the devils in front of us are enough for us to fight, and those puppet soldiers should be left to Huang Sanpao Jin Feilong and them to clean up! "In front of the position is the devil of the brigade, Zhang Erxiao is not interested in the puppet army now, "Order the reconnaissance company to pay attention to monitor the movements of the puppet army, if these guys dare to approach our position, report to me immediately!" "If the puppet soldiers really want to die by themselves, Zhang Erxiao doesn't mind spending a few bullets for them.
"Yes!" Qin Baoshan agreed to convey the brigade commander's order.
Zhang Sheng was the first group of people to retreat, and it was strange that he, the brigade commander of the puppet army who took the lead in escaping, actually gathered hundreds of his subordinates around him while running. Zhang Sheng remembered that after he gave the order to retreat, when he first started to escape, he was only followed by a guard platoon at the brigade headquarters, how could five or six hundred people follow him after running for half an hour? Before these boys went to the battlefield, they were scared to death, and they retreated faster than rabbits! There are more puppet troops behind Zhang Sheng who are moving closer to him, the brigade commander, and it seems that it won't be too long before there will be thousands of people around him!
"All the time, Liu, take your cavalry to the front to explore the road and reconnoitre!" Zhang Sheng saw that his cavalry company commander actually led more than a dozen cavalrymen to follow, and he remembered that he was going to send scouts. Don't look at the mess of the combat capability of the Fifth Security Brigade, thanks to the blessing of the Japanese, the configuration of all arms in Zhang Sheng's army is quite complete, a puppet military brigade is even equipped with a cavalry company! He actually has a mortar company, and he hasn't seen it catch up yet, so he probably donated it to the national army.
"Report to the brigade commander, there are two units in front of them exchanging fire, and it seems that the national army and the Japanese are fighting. Shall we fight from the back of the national army and do the Japanese a favor? Ten minutes later, the commander of the pseudo-reconnaissance company rode back on horseback to report his discovery to Zhang Sheng.
"What kind of unit is the national army? What is the name of the Japanese army? Zhang Sheng asked his cavalry company commander. Two armies at war? That's not nonsense! Standing here, you can hear the sound of gunfire that shattered the sky, if it weren't for the two armies fighting, could it be that a firecracker factory caught fire and exploded?
"I don't know." The pseudo-reconnaissance company commander didn't have a red face at all when he said he didn't know a few words, just like someone who had nothing to do, "Their side is fighting so fiercely, our cavalry can't get close at all!" "It sounds like a good reason.
"You don't know, let our troops fight? What if there is an imperial army behind it? Even if it's not the imperial army but the national army, do you think you can win the national army with just our people? As he spoke, another group of more than 100 puppet soldiers joined Zhang Sheng's team, and now his Fifth Security Brigade has a scale of seven or eight hundred people.
"If you win, you have to try to know if you win." The cavalry company commander replied a little unconvinced.
"Try it to find out? Okay, all the time, Liu, now I order, you lead your cavalry company to charge at once against the enemy you find, and I will allocate another hundred brothers to you, and you will pick a hundred men yourself, and take your cavalry team to fight, and I will press you to the rear. ”
"This, I, Brigadier Commander. Hey, I was wrong, I said the wrong thing. You have a lot of them, so don't be like me. As soon as he heard that he was going to let him lead the team to go to battle, Liu was immediately dumbfounded, this guy has a few pounds and taels he knows, just by the intensity of the gunfire over there, he will definitely die if he goes up! has been the righteous words that this guy Liu just said, and as soon as he turned his face, he immediately said good things to Zhang Sheng with a hippie smile.
"Don't talk nonsense if you can't see the situation clearly! With our little people, it's not enough to go up and fill in the gaps between people's teeth! Go ahead and explore the way, let's go around from the side, we can't afford to provoke, can't we still hide? Zhang Sheng pointed to the side and educated Liu with wise words.
"Traveler wise!" Liu always gave Zhang Sheng a thumbs up with a sneer, waved his horsewhip, and took his cavalry to explore the way for the troops.
The puppet soldiers of the Fifth Brigade of Security followed Liu and his group of cavalry, turned a corner, and ran away from the battlefield.
"The 321st Brigade and the devil are fighting? The 5th Security Brigade ran around the edge of the battlefield? Gao Quan and Jin Feilong's 501 regiment were following behind the puppet army unhurriedly, and such a news suddenly passed in front of him, not only Gao Quan, but also Jin Feilong felt unexpected.
"Damn, there are still people who save these garbage puppet soldiers? The little devil is really idle, he has nothing to do, he is full of food, and he is blind! Jin Feilong showed great dissatisfaction with the rescue of the puppet army, "Junzao, should we speed up and eliminate this gang of puppet troops, or should we help Brigade Commander Zhang?" ”
Needless to say, Jin Feilong must be more interested in eliminating the puppet army, who wouldn't want to get a good thing without much effort? However, because Gao Quan has always had a completely different attitude towards devils and puppet soldiers, Jin Feilong vaguely knew what the military seat would do.
"Order the 500th Regiment to immediately reinforce Xinqiao and fight the Japanese with the 321st Brigade!" Gao Quan gave the order without the slightest hesitation.
"Yes!" Jin Feilong also answered without any pause, and turned his face to convey the order happily.
"Captain Huang? The military seat ordered that the 500th Regiment immediately reinforce Xinqiao and fight the Japanese invaders together with the 321st Brigade! Act quickly after receiving the order, and if there is any delay, come and see you! The latter sentence was added by Jin Feilong, so it rhymes smoothly! Being able to reprimand Huang Sanpao in the tone of an official like this, Jin Feilong felt refreshed!
