Chapter 54: Northward Expansion (5)

Meng Qingshan lay on the top of the mountain, holding a telescope and staring at the enemy army in the distance, while on the mountainside, Zhang Zhongxi's fourth army was ambushed, quietly waiting for the enemy to enter the ambush circle.

Soon, a battalion commander of the puppet army and the captain of the Japanese squad rode side by side into Meng Qingshan's field of vision, Meng Qingshan put down the binoculars and picked up a 38-type rifle beside him.

A gunshot rang out at the "bump", and the proud Japanese squad leader next to the puppet battalion commander was unwilling to drop off his horse.

I'll it, I'm aiming at the battalion commander of the puppet army, why did I hit the next one?

With the sound of Meng Qingshan's gunshot, all the rifle light machine guns instantly began to shoot, and after the rifleman finished firing one round, he immediately threw the grenade he had prepared for a long time, and was about to carry out the second round of bombing, when the charge horn sounded.

This is simply another one-sided massacre, before the enemy has reacted, it has been half of the frantic strafing of the Anti-Japanese Federation, and just as he was lying down and preparing to return fire, a rain of bullets composed of grenades attacked again, and the Japanese puppet army, which had already suffered more than half of the casualties, was bombarded by grenades, and there were very few people who could stand up, so Meng Qingshan blew the charge horn in time.

The results of the battle were quickly counted, a total of more than 450 enemies were killed, only a few dozen wounded were still alive, 10 light machine guns were captured, a total of 400 rifles and submachine guns, and countless ammunition, while only a few of their own people were slightly wounded, and they still tripped on the way to the charge.

Seeing such a result, the warriors went crazy and shouted happily.

One by one, they happily cleaned up the battlefield, and soon carried the loot and walked to the temporary resting place of the Anti-Japanese Federation. Leave the corpses of enemy soldiers in a row.

Political Commissar Li Yanping has been standing on the mountain with a telescope and looking into the distance since Meng Qingshan left the rest place with the Fourth Army. In this way, he stayed on the hill, and after hearing the gunfire for about two minutes, it subsided. You must know that now Li Yanping is afraid of heavy casualties, and the troops are in the process of changing to battle, and if there are serious wounded, they will definitely slow down the speed and flexibility of the troops.

Hearing the gunfire ending quickly, Li Yanping knew that his troops had won the victory, and the only thing he was worried about now was the casualties of his troops.

Soon, a team appeared in the distance, heading towards here. Seeing that the troops did not have stretchers, the nervous heart finally let go, and hurriedly ran down the mountain to meet the deputy commander.

"Commissar, what's wrong with you? How is the situation of the troops now! Seeing that Meng Qingshan cared about himself as soon as he met him, Li Yanping couldn't help but be moved.

"Deputy commander, everything is normal with the troops, how is the ambush fighting? Are there many casualties among the troops? Moved to be moved, Li Yanping immediately returned to the topic and hurriedly asked.

"Political commissar, don't worry, there is a deputy commander who personally went out, you are still worried, we won this battle, completely annihilated a squad of the Japanese army and a battalion of the puppet army, captured the equipment of the whole battalion, only a few of our soldiers tripped during the charge, suffered a little minor injury, and did not die." Zhang Zhongxi, the new commander of the Fourth Army, saw Li Yanping's eager appearance and quickly replied.

"Okay, good, comrades are all good, quick, go into the mountains and rest, just now caught a nest of wild boar pigs in the forest, have already prepared dinner, waiting for you to return victorious? Quick, fast into the mountains. Li Yanping said excitedly after hearing this.

"Political commissar, through the interrogation of the prisoners, the Japanese army has discovered our traces and is ready to gather troops to quickly come to encircle and suppress us, so we must run out before the Japanese army surrounds us." I decided that we would divide up and retreat at night, and we would discuss where to go.

"Old Meng's soldiers are divided into two ways, will this make the troops too scattered?"

"Lao Wang, Lao Li soldiers are divided into two roads is imperative, if we gather together to walk very easy to expose, the next road is already plain areas there are no mountains for us to hide, this will make us be detected by the Japanese reconnaissance aircraft to find our traces, in order to attract the attention of the Japanese army, I led the Fourth Army, the guard battalion, the artillery company, the reconnaissance company platoon, and the recruit battalion to set off all the way from here along the straight line to the Daxinganling area. Lao Wang and Lao Li, you led the rest of the people to make two roads, and after we left, you took advantage of the darkness to quietly cross back from the boat branch we hid on the shore to hide for a few days, and then along the Songhua River all the way to Daxinganling. ”

"Lao Meng, your leg injury is not completely healed, or I will lead the team to attract firepower, and you will quietly transfer." Wang Yachen stood up and said hurriedly.

"No, you don't speak Japanese, I will, and I have experience, you don't, and I'm the deputy conductor, you all have to listen to me."

"If Lao Meng doesn't let Lao Wang lead the team to set off by himself, I will stay and set off with you, and I will send a telegram."

"Lao Li, I also want you to follow me, but no, most of the Ten Armies are composed of the Kuomintang's Sichuan army, although they are all men who stand up to the sky, but some of them are also veterans, they can still follow us honestly when we are strong, we are now in the strategic shift, I am worried about the discipline of the troops, which requires you, and I take away the strongest troops in our team, your task is not very light, remember to march at night and rest during the day, and all people who meet people in the middle of the night will be taken away, Wait until you reach the Great Khing'an Mountains and then release them, if you resist a little and kill them, don't be soft-hearted. ”

"Lao Meng, you must take care, we will see you in Daxinganling then." Li Yanping said with tears in his eyes, he knew that what Meng Qingshan said was the truth, and only Meng Qingshan among the three of them was suitable to lead the troops on the most dangerous road, and he didn't know if this would be the last time they met.

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll lead the team to set off, so that the Japanese army will think that ours is all the men and horses of the Anti-Japanese League that attacked them this time, and strive to see us in Daxinganling in two months."

When the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Ueda Kenkichi, who was still sleeping, received a report that a large group of unknown armed forces had attacked a pioneer regiment near the Songhua River in Buyeo Prefecture at night, after receiving the report, Senior General Ueda Kenkichi got up and looked at the map with a magnifying glass for a while, drew the location with a pen, and said with a smile: "There is joy! The great cunning of the Zhi Na people, this is to play a game for me under the dark, hidden for so long, and finally came out again. ”

At the same time as the troops mobilized around Buyeo Prefecture, where these people were finally discovered, Kenkichi Ueda appointed him as the commander of the Fifth Independent Garrison for many years, which was dedicated to clearing out the Anti-Japanese Alliance, and Lieutenant General Anai Toji, who has a lot of combat experience in the Second Division, is the current commander of the Second Division, Lieutenant General Anai Toji, who commands all the Japanese puppet troops in a unified manner. and sent Ryosuke Isoya to fly to Harbin in person to convey his orders to Lieutenant General Toji Yasui.

At the same time, he asked people to call Major General Ye Deputy Changdeok, the captain of the Second Independent Garrison of the Kwantung Army, who was searching the mountains along the Pearl River, and told him that the mysterious independent division of the Anti-Japanese Union had appeared, and asked him to lead the team back to encircle and suppress it quickly.

Ye Deputy Changde, who was directing the search for the Anti-United Nations in the Pearl River, was drawing back and forth on the map, and now the entire Pearl River has been searched, not even a small hill bag has been spared, where is this mysterious independent division of the Anti-United Nations hiding?

"Report to Your Excellency Wing Commander, Commander urgently."

"Read."

"Last night, a group of troops pretending to be the imperial army in Fuyu County attacked the county seat, and it was confirmed that we had been searching for a long time that the mysterious independent division of the Anti-United Nations was hereby ordered to quickly concentrate forces and drive to Lanxi County to intercept this independent division of the Anti-United Nations and the Anti-United Nations."

"There is joy! It turned out that this group of monkeys was actually hiding here, and finally came out, and when I called back, my department immediately approached Lanxi, and made peace with Lieutenant General Toji Yasui.
