After receiving the national telegram issued by the Red Army, Takayoshi Tanaka, the head of the Kwantung Army in charge of the attack plan, his first reaction was that it was unlikely. The reason is simple, the main forces of the Red Army were still a long way from the Bailing Temple.

Even according to Tanaka Takayoshi's previous judgment, the Red Army, which occupied most of northern Shaanxi, Yulin and Gansu at this moment, should focus on the encirclement and suppression that the Central Army was about to begin, rather than participating in the Suiyuan Campaign at this time.

can immediately contact the Bailing Temple side, and found that the radio station did not respond, and Tanaka Takayoshi knew that something was wrong. Before he could react, the Jin Sui army's all-out counterattack began, and the battle that had been going smoothly took a sharp turn in an instant.

When he arrived at Bailing Temple by car and looked at the wolf-like battlefield, Tanaka Takayoshi's expression was very angry and gloomy. Especially the corpses of the 200 Kwantung Army stationed here, which made Tanaka Takayoshi scold more than once.

'Bagaya Road, these Red Army troops are so hateful! Haven't found their whereabouts yet? ’

'No, Chief! However, we have sent additional troops to search, and we believe they will not be able to get far. ’

'Yo! We must find out the enemy who has attacked our Great Day Imperial Army in the shortest possible time. By the way, didn't you find the body of Katsukakushima Yoshi? ’

'Yes! According to our Kamchatka of the command site, they should still be alive. When we arrived earlier, we found that the entire headquarters documents and maps seemed to have been taken by the attackers. ’

'Yo! Send a message to the airport and ask them to send an aircraft to conduct an aerial search. I don't believe they can get away from right under our noses. Tell the incompetent puppet Mongolian cavalry that these enemies must be found. ’

It's a pity. After a day of searching, He Zhengdao and others who attacked Bailing Temple were still not found. Opposite. In the evening, when the puppet Mongolian cavalry returned to camp, many puppet Mongolian cavalry commanders found out. They are missing a lot of people.

After the briefing, Takayoshi Tanaka immediately asked the search team about the area they were responsible for. He quickly said: "Bagaya Road, they are right under our noses, and you didn't even notice it." Damn it!

If I'm not mistaken, they must have been hiding in a wooded area in this area, shooting past our air force reconnaissance and ground search. And tonight is the time for them to escape. Order your troops, hurry up and give me a night's pursuit! ”

The commanders of the puppet Mongolian cavalry division who heard this immediately said with a bitter face: "Mr. Tanaka." This black light is blinding, how can we chase it! Moreover, the Red Army is very good at night fighting, if we chase it, it is very likely that we will be ambushed! ”

'Bagaya Road! Do you mean to disobey my commands? ’

'Don't dare, don't dare! Let's chase it, chase it right away! ’

Looking at this little devil spy captain who was about to go crazy, there was a pseudo-Mongolian division commander who seemed to realize the consequences of refusing to carry out the order. I'm afraid that it will be a head. For those of them who take refuge, the little devils are not soft enough to kill!

As the discerning puppet master said, the attack on the Bailing Temple made Tanaka Takayoshi extremely disbelieve these puppet soldiers. Plus the rout of the front-line battles. Takayoshi Tanaka was even more annoyed.

In his opinion, this is a bunch of incompetent guys. For this kind of person who can't bring them benefits, Takayoshi Tanaka naturally doesn't need to be polite. If these people are disobedient. Kill and change your obedience again.

Even when several division commanders left the headquarters, Takayoshi Tanaka said with some unease: "Ikeno." Lead your cavalry squad and give me to supervise their movements. If they dare to disobey orders. I authorize you to summarily execute their commanders. ”

'Hey! ’

With the appearance of these little devil cavalry who were ordered to supervise, even the pseudo-Mongolian cavalry who deliberately delayed did not dare to deal with it anymore. Even if they are division commanders, these are just ordinary little devil cavalry.

But in front of these little devils, they don't have any right to speak at all. If you don't obey, the consequences are very serious!

Accompanied by several cavalry divisions, they pursued overnight in the direction analyzed by Takayoshi Tanaka. As he had expected, it was not long before he saw the captives hiding in the woods and shivering from the cold.

Seeing these prisoners, the cavalry squad leader who led the team immediately said: "Red Army, where it went!" ”

'Taijun, they went over there. It's been a while! ’

The captives who were questioned did not dare to hide it, and soon informed He Zhengdao's whereabouts. Knowing that their pursuit was in the right direction, the cavalry squad leader immediately said, "Yours, speed up the pursuit." Let the Red Army run away, you are all dead and dead! ”

Faced with the threat of this cavalry squad leader, many pseudo-Mongolian cavalry felt angry. But the problem is that after staying with the little devils for a long time, they know very well the urine nature of the little devils. I really want to provoke the little devils, they don't know how to die!

And at this moment, He Zhengdao, who was driving a car and constantly speeding forward, knew that if the little devil was not stupid, he should be able to analyze the whereabouts of his troops. When refueling the car, Li Xiangdong was found.

asked: "Xiangdong, when you came out, did you bring all the new gadgets you brought?" ”

'Report to the commander, bring it!' However, there are not many of them, only thirty in total! ’

'Good! Wait a minute, draw a cavalry squad, and stay on this road for me to guard. If the little devil will pursue tonight, this is the only way to pursue us. Let our people, test our weapons with little devils, it won't work! ’

'Yes, Commander, I'll arrange it at once!' ’

With a team of twenty scouts retained, the cars filled with fuel, and the rest of the cavalry replenished their drinking water and even fed the horses, He Zhengdao and his party continued to set off.

At this time, the leader of the reconnaissance squad who stayed behind immediately said: "Brothers, time is running out!" Let's get to work! Wait for two people to watch here, and the others will walk a little further ahead.

If the little devils do chase after them, we also have to buy them a little time to retreat. Remember what the commander said, don't fight hard with the little devils, but let them know that continuing the pursuit will cost their lives. ”

Yes, you're good to go! I saw these baby bumps when I was experimenting in the arsenal. That guy, a flock of sheep put it in, and the blood that exploded was not pulled. They dare to chase them and send them back to their hometown in the East! ’

'Alright, don't be poor! Hurry up and get to work! If it's before dawn, if you haven't waited for the little devil, remember to take out the iron lumps we buried. This thing, if the common people step on it, it will still be very fatal. ’

The iron lumps that these scouts are talking about are actually the mines that He Zhengdao asked the arsenal to make. This is a low-cost, highly practical thing. It's a good thing to use against little devils.

There's no way to make any big guys for the time being, and these little things can make the little devils drink a pot. It's just that at present, these mines have not been popularized by He Zhengdao, and they are more limited to reconnaissance regiments and saber squads.

Although the results of the experiment in the arsenal are good, the most suitable way to get these mines to the battlefield is how lethal they are. Therefore, when he came out, He Zhengdao specially instructed Li Xiangdong to bring some out.

Of course, at present, among the supplies carried by the first division, there are still hundreds of mines in reserve! These things, when used in conjunction with the scouts, are undoubtedly the best.

If it is not triggered, the Scout can take it out the next day, plug in the safety bolt and continue to use it. At least for these scouts, how to bury mines and how to lay them, they have been trained for a long time.

Perhaps in the eyes of many Red Army soldiers, He Zhengdao was a little too cautious in doing so. He Zhengdao, who is familiar with the history of the Anti-Japanese War, knows very well that the spies of the little devils are all professionally trained military personnel.

To put it simply, this is a group of officer corps made up of the elite of the little devil military. These people are proficient in plotting rebellion, intelligence reconnaissance and gathering, and terrain surveying, and they are also a group of Japanese elites who are proficient in military command.

Take the notorious Itagawa Seishiro as an example, this guy is not only a well-known intelligence leader in the Japanese army, but also a famous commander of the Japanese army's divisions. Looking down on these Japanese spies, the price is often very heavy.

In order to ensure safety, and also to ensure a smooth exit from the area controlled by the puppet Mongolian army. He Zhengdao feels that it is very necessary to keep a hand at any time. And as it turned out, he was right.

As the head of the agency leading the invasion plan, Takayoshi Tanaka was also an elite who was familiar with military command. Just through these pseudo-Mongolian division commanders, and the search team under them did not return, they judged that He Zhengdao chose the breakthrough route, and he was undoubtedly a master.

The reconnaissance detachment planted mines and began to rest quietly in the vicinity. The sound of horses' hooves in the distance, as well as the movement of a large number of torches, quickly caught their attention. For a moment, all the scouts looked very alert.

It was clear that at this point, running away was of little use. All they had to do was to pacify their horses, watch the cavalry of these little devils, and open up to the minefield they had laid in the road.

Soon, when these pursuing cavalry stepped through the minefield, there were unfortunate cavalry horses that stepped directly on the mines planted in advance. In an instant, the cavalryman sitting on horseback felt that the whole person was flying.

The violent explosion, coupled with the scene of people turning on their backs, caused the cavalry following behind to stop their horses. Not long after, the leader of the Japanese cavalry squad in charge of supervision soon appeared at the scene of the bloody explosion.

Looking at the several holes formed in the ground, the cavalry squad leader said with a somewhat solemn expression: "Baga! It's a mine! ”

For the officers of the Japanese army, Ikeno knew very well what would be the scene of such an explosion. And he also knew how the fleeing Red Army had really laid mines, so there was little hope of chasing the place.

The most important thing is that the puppet Mongolian army, which is not strong in its determination, is not strong. Seeing these dead and wounded cavalry, who would dare to walk in the forefront? After all, being bombed while running is a personal fear! (To be continued.) )
