Chapter 136: "Katana" attacks

Ma Zheng was in a bad mood, and the commander of the Fourth Cavalry Brigade who was responsible for the sneak attack on the Chahar tribe, Major General Takashi Mori, was also in an extremely unbeautiful mood. The 1st Cavalry Brigade arrived in Kobul on the night of June 28, and under the leadership of the local puppet army, it quietly touched the outskirts of the Huiteng Siller steppe and launched a surprise attack on the Chahar tribe.

Although the sneak attack the day before yesterday was very successful, in front of the iron cavalry of the Imperial Japanese Army, under the edge of the chrysanthemum sword, no army could resist it. Even the elite of the government army in China had to tremble, let alone a small tribe in China.

After a night of beheading, the Imperial Japanese Army completely destroyed this tribe of China that dared to betray the Imperial Army, beheading at least more than 10,000 people. Although the resistance of those herdsmen also caused some casualties to the Imperial Japanese Army, especially the hateful leader Bilig and his personal guards, which once caused a lot of trouble to the Imperial Army, and even caused the death of one squadron leader and the serious injury of two squad leaders.

But that's all, the casualties of more than 700 people are nothing to the first brigade with more than 4,000 iron cavalry, and the so-called casualties are only more than 300 people killed in battle, and the rest are just wounded, as long as they are treated after going back, they can quickly return to the army, so he can still bear such casualties, not to mention that they also captured the leader of the Chinese tribe alive.

But what he couldn't accept was that the most important target of this operation, Ma Zheng's wife, actually fled. In the process of escaping, the guards around the woman actually caused great casualties to the imperial army, at least three hundred imperial warriors were killed, and the enemy was only five, such a record is simply incredible, and at the same time unforgivable.

The most important thing is that the vast majority of those killed in this battle are the elite backbone of the front army, and everyone is extremely precious, and now Eagle Takamori doesn't know how to explain to His Excellency Harem Jun.

As a matter of fact, the front army had long been aware that Ma Zheng's unit had a special task force with strong combat effectiveness, so for this special force, the front army transferred more than 200 combat backbones from various brigades, regiments, and wings to form a special force with equally strong combat effectiveness, called "Katana". In order to increase the probability of success and to test the combat effectiveness of this Einsatzgruppen, it is said that the First Army specially sent this Katana Einsatzgruppen to it.

At the beginning of the battle, the "Katana" rangers did not disappoint him, successfully clearing all obstacles along the way of the large army, and even touched the front of Bilig's father's tooth tent at one point, and successfully killed the old man.

But in the ensuing battle, especially after meeting the hateful Shina woman, the situation was turned upside down all at once. The Einsatzgruppen were attacked one after another, and in less than half an hour of fighting, more than thirty people were killed, and the hateful woman escaped.

However, the Einsatzgruppen still has a strong tracking ability, even if the China woman has a few locals around her as guides to lead the way, and there are a few key horses to walk on her behalf, but she is still bitten by the Einsatzgruppen's tail.

Major General Takamoriichi's order is very clear, no matter what the cost, you must catch that hateful Shina woman.

Miyamoto Sataro was also in a terrible mood, some time ago his own brother was killed by Ma Zheng's department in the northwest of Jin, and after receiving the bad news, he took the initiative to ask from the Kwantung Army to go to the front line of China, so he was sent to the headquarters of the Mongolian army.

In view of his extremely rich experience in "suppressing bandits" in Manchuria, he was appointed by Harem Jun as the captain of the "Katana" Einsatzgruppen and promoted to the rank of army commander.

Speaking of the troops under his command, Miyamoto was very satisfied, although the number was only 200 men, but all of them were composed of officers and non-commissioned officers. Even the lowest rank is Cao Chang, of which there are five adjutants and as many as 79 lieutenants. Moreover, these people were selected to be incorporated into the Einsatzgruppen, and according to the records of these people, each of them had killed at least one of the Nameless Soldiers.

Originally, Miyamoto was very dissatisfied with this operation, mainly because the target was too small, the wife of a division commander of Shina, which was simply killing chickens with a knife. According to the requirements of the front army when it formed a special force, their target was at least the commander of the division level, and at worst it could not be lower than the commander of the brigade level.

According to the information they had received in advance, the main mission of the woman's trip to this Mongolian tribe this time was to treat the old man in China, and she usually lived in the largest tent (yurt). But when they attacked, they found out that things had gone wrong, and the woman was living with her guards in another tent not far away.

And her guards were very alert, and his men were spotted just before they touched the tent of the tribal leader, and then they opened fire decisively, and several of his men died instantly.

At that time, they didn't care, and focused their main energy on attacking the big tent of the tribal leader, and by the time they realized that the person who had just shot was their target, it was too late, and the woman had fled south under the protection of more than twenty Mongol men.

After discovering this problem, Miyamoto and his special team pursued all the way south, but what they didn't expect was that not only the guards around the woman were powerful, but even those Mongolian knights were very terrifying. Each of them was armed with two Mauser pistols, and each wore leather armor made of cowhide, which his Einsatzgruppen used was difficult to penetrate.

On the contrary, because he was in too much of a hurry to chase, he was ambushed by these groundhogs and lost a lot of people. However, the woman did not bargain, after a few encounters, there were fewer and fewer people around her, and their war horses were also very tired, presumably they could catch up after a while.

While Miyamoto was pondering, his adjutant Sasaki trotted over and reported: "Osa, this place is called Brain Baoshan, and forty kilometers further south is the territory of Zhuozishan County, which is now controlled by the Ma Zheng Department of China. ”

"Sasaki, is there a whereabouts of that Shina woman?"

"Report to Dazuo, not yet, but according to the lowly estimate, that Shina woman should be around here." Sasaki replied.

"Yaga Yalu, Sasaki, you are all the elites I selected from the front army, the resources consumed by the front army on each of you are enough to equip a combat squad in the empire, and now you can't even catch a single woman, it's a shame, how can you let me explain like His Excellency Harem Jun!" Miyamoto Daisa shouted.

As one of the best officers in the Great Japanese Empire, an elite who once defeated more than 30 bandit armies and anti-Japanese armed forces in the Manchurian area with a single combat squad, Miyamoto Sataro was very dissatisfied with the performance of these soldiers in front of him.

However, Sataro Miyamoto himself knew in his heart that this special task force could not be compared with those soldiers before him. You must know that the combat squad he commanded at the beginning was personally trained by His Excellency Hattori Kuratomi, a special operations expert in the Great Japanese Empire, and it was not comparable to these defective products in front of him.

Originally, according to His Excellency Harem Jun's idea, the Katana Ranger should continue to train for a while before being sent out on a mission. After all, these people have only been transferred together for more than 20 days, and they have basically not been trained much, and they are only stronger and braver than the personnel of ordinary troops, and their weapons and equipment are better than those of ordinary soldiers, and the rest is nothing special.

But the thought that his dear brother died at the hands of that hateful Shina man, Miyamoto Sataro couldn't help but feel a burst of anger, so he insisted on leading the team to participate in this operation despite the dissuasion of Harem Jun, but he didn't expect it to be such a result.
