Chapter 359: The Death of the Lieutenant General (2)
"Report to the head of the regiment, there is a group of devils coming this way." Soon, the scouts who were sent out told the news to Hou Guozhong, who was leading the cavalry regiment outside on a guard mission.
"What the commander-in-chief said is really right, the little devil really called for reinforcements, and he has been listening to the shouts and cannons in the city, and he is in a hurry, although he participated in this big battle, but he was rotated as a guard force, which made Hou Guozhong and the soldiers of the cavalry regiment very unwilling, as soon as they heard that the Japanese army was coming. Hou Guozhong was excited for a while, and hurriedly asked: "How is it, is the little devil from the direction of Tailai, how many troops are the Japanese army, and whether they are equipped with heavy weapons." ”
"Regiment commander, this group of little devils seems to have escaped from the city, about one and a half squadrons of troops, with a total of no more than 500 people. In addition, the entire unit did not have any heavy weapons other than six heavy machine guns. Moreover, looking through the binoculars, there were dozens of Japanese soldiers gathered together, and this group of Japanese soldiers seemed to be trying to protect one person, and they were all very tired. The Scout hastened to tell him everything he knew.
"Well, I already know the situation, you go down and rest," Hou Guozhong ordered. At the same time, my heart also began to get excited, listening to the description of the scouts, this group of Japanese troops who escaped from the city seemed to have an important figure, then this character must be Lieutenant General Shanshanyuan who stayed behind in Qiqihar by the little devil, and it must be impossible for the Japanese army to stay behind and watch Lieutenant General Shanshanyuan be wiped out by our army with Qiqihar, so they organized troops to send Shanshanyuan out. It seems that this group of enemies is Lieutenant General Sugi Moto, the chief of staff who protects the 10th Division of the Japanese Army.
"Haha, Shen Qingshan! Shen Qingshan, you also have today. actually let go of such a large piece of fat, it seems that God really takes care of me Hou. Let me have a first kill, Xiao Li informs all the troops. Prepare for battle, let the soldiers give me an ambush and wait for my orders, and inform the artillery battalion that I must measure the firing coordinates in advance. When I ask for artillery support, I make sure that the first hit is made. I was also informed that the battalion commanders were to rush into the ranks of the Japanese within three minutes after the shelling when I gave the order to set out. Divide them up. Thinking that a Japanese lieutenant general of the Japanese army would die in his own hands in a moment, Hou Guozhong was excited for a while, and ordered loudly to Li Xuezhong, the commander of the guard company beside him. At the same time, he also picked up the telescope and looked at Qiqihar, where the sound of gunfire was heard not far away.
And just when the fighters were ready for battle, waiting for the Japanese army to drill into their own arrival. Lieutenant General Sugi Moto, under the protection of a squadron of Japanese soldiers, retreated in a hurry. At this time, except for the casual clothes on his body, he could no longer see his usual high-minded appearance.
"Yaga! Extremely wide-kun. Why do you want to retreat, I want to live and die with Qiqihar, you are violating the spirit of bushido, come back with me. I'm going to destroy that rag. Shanshan Yuan scolded.
"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, Your Excellency the Commander has instructed me to protect you before I set out, and when we break through. Qiqihar has fallen. ”
"Nani? No way. ”
"It's true, Your Excellency the Chief of Staff."
"Even a retreat. Why don't you order the soldiers to light torches, and there is a road not to go, why take this mountain road, how to march" Lieutenant General Sugi Sugimoto, the chief of staff of the Japanese army, who tripped over the grass on the side of the road again, covered his left foot that tripped over a stone. After getting up with the support of the surrounding guards. scolded loudly at Koji Koji, who was protecting himself beside him.
"Your Excellency General, we are not out of danger at this time, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Zhina, we have to go into the mountains to dodge, once we light the torches will let the Zhina, who are chasing us behind, find out our whereabouts, once they catch up with us, it is difficult to stop us in our current situation, please Your Excellency the General hold on a little longer, we are about to get out of here, there is a plain area in front." Seeing Lieutenant General Sugi Sugimoto with an angry face, the captain Koji Jihiro hurriedly explained.
"Baga, Bagaya Road, when I get to Tailai, I will definitely ask the headquarters to send reinforcements and kill all these damned Chinese people." The chief of staff, Lieutenant General Shanshan Moto, said fiercely, and with the support of several guards, he began to continue the difficult march.
And just when Hou Guozhong looked in the direction of Qiqihar, waiting for the little devil to come and send him to death. Under the illumination of the moonlight, several figures suddenly appeared in Hou Guozhong's telescope. When I looked closely, I saw a few little devils coming out of the woods, holding rifles that had already been loaded with bayonets, as if they were facing a great enemy, constantly searching in the grass, and looking around from time to time.
Needless to say, this must be a search party dispatched by the Japanese army. However, the little devils of this squad were sent out by the Japanese army to send them to death, and once they encountered the attack of the Anti-Japanese Union, the rest of the people would immediately go into the mountains. When this group of Japanese scouts went back and forth dozens of times and finally determined that it was safe, they let out a "coo-coo!" with their hands. After a while, four or five hundred Japanese soldiers from the mountains one after another, forming a two-way formation, carrying heavy machine guns, quickly passed through here to the plain where the cavalry was hiding, and the Japanese fugitive troops did not know that the plain area that they thought was safe was hiding thousands of cavalry troops.
At the same time, in the middle of these troops, Hou Guozhong clearly discovered the situation that the scout said. Among the marching troops, dozens of little devils consciously or unintentionally gathered around a special person.
It seems that this old guy Shanshanyuan is really in this group of Japanese soldiers. Because he is so obvious, in the Japanese army unit full of yellow uniforms, it is obvious that there is a Japanese wearing a Japanese kimono, not to mention that this person is also protected by the Japanese army in several circles. "Pass one by one, order the fighters to be ready for battle, and without my orders, it is forbidden for anyone to open fire to expose the target." I saw the formation of little devils that stretched for nearly 300 meters, and Shanshan Yuan, who was tightly surrounded by everyone. A smile appeared on the corner of Hou Guozhong's mouth, and he commanded Li Xuezhong behind him.
Just as the soldiers quietly took out their sabers and turned over their horses to prepare to charge, the vanguard of the little devils finally entered the plains where they thought they were safe. This was followed by six heavy machine guns in the middle of the line. Slowly, hundreds of little devils, under the gaze of Hou Guozhong and others, all entered the battlefield suitable for cavalry.
In order to better let the cavalry regiment play a vigilant mission, Meng Qingshan specially asked Zhu Guang to mobilize a mortar battalion to assist the cavalry regiment, and Meng Qingshan equipped the cavalry regiment with five rocket launchers as early as before departure, in order to prevent once encountering the Japanese tanks, the mobile force of the cavalry can quickly defeat the Japanese tanks and avoid casualties among the troops.
