"Squad leader, what did you say the imperial army went out to do just now, it was in such a hurry, and the gunfire outside kept stopping, it was strange to hear, I seemed to hear the movement of the plane just now, what was the imperial army doing?" A soldier of the Jing'an Army guarding the gate of the second station asked an officer next to him.

"Liu Tiezhu occupies your post well, don't talk nonsense."

"Squad leader, I'm not curious, you can tell us quickly."

"Okay, then I'll tell you, the imperial army must have an urgent mission when it goes out, I don't know what the specific task is, but I heard that not far from us, Xunhe, Morgen, Longzhen, Dedu and other places are making trouble again, and this time the movement is not small! I suspect that the group of anti-coalition currents has fled to our area and was discovered by the reconnaissance planes of the imperial army, so His Excellency Nakasa should have eliminated them. ”

"Oh, my mother, isn't the anti-union that has entered our area dead this time? You must know that we are full of imperial troops here, are these people stupid to drill into the pit. ”

"You know a fart, it was chased by the imperial army to the sky and no way to go down, so I had to come here as a last resort. Blind this group of hot-blooded men. ”

"Squad leader, I'm ......"

"I'm a fart, don't stand guard here, what are you doing, don't let me stand guard, otherwise I'll pick your skin." The squad leader's face changed and he scolded.

Hearing the squad leader's angry scolding, the group of people quickly returned to their respective posts, looked at the front and stood guard seriously, only to see a small patrol in the distance, led by Ryūji Yamazaki, a retired officer from the Japanese Kwantung Army. And now the military instructors of their battalion.

"Taijun is good, Taijun has worked hard."

"Squad leader Hou Kangping. You must stand guard carefully, and there must be no sloppiness. Then let me see you talking to each other, and you will take off your military uniforms and go to the station to carry supplies with the group of laborers, you understand. ”

"Understood, understood."

"If His Excellency Nakasa comes back and asks me later, you will say that I will go to the station to watch the detained laborers move supplies."

"Hey!"

"Taijun is back, Taijun is back." A puppet soldier at the observation post on the city wall shouted below.

Hearing that Sakatanakasa had actually returned victoriously, Yamazaki Ryuji stopped and walked to the fortifications at the entrance of the town to prepare for the victorious return of Sakatanakasa, and under the guidance of the moonlight, he saw a column of imperial soldiers marching towards this place with neat steps, and dozens of people tied to ropes in the middle of the team. Thinking that these people should be Ma Luda who was caught by the imperial soldiers, Yamazaki Ryuji saw that the imperial soldiers had won a big victory again, and this scene suddenly returned to the days when he served in the army, during which he also participated in the Seven Seven Incident, but because he was hit in the leg by a stray bullet, he had to retire from the army, but fortunately, because of his excellent military literacy and skills, he was sent here to train this group of people, but even so, he looked down on this group of people, whether it was really training or no training. Sometimes Ryuji Yamazaki thought that even if he trained pigs for a year, it would be easier than training this group.

"Baga, cheer up, the soldiers of the empire are coming. If I let the chief see you like this, see how I clean you up. Ryuji Yamazaki shouted at a soldier yawning next to him. He didn't want a soldier's fault to jeopardize his future. Although he could not return to the battlefield, he could take up civilian work. He didn't want to be like the people who went back to farming.

It didn't take long for the Japanese squadron to get close to Ryuji Yamazaki. With the searchlight swept over his head from time to time, he looked carefully at the returning team and frowned, only to see that the leader was a captain squadron leader, followed by a lieutenant squad leader, and the two slowly approached him after saying this, Yamazaki Ryuji was very puzzled that he had never seen these two officers.

"You are part of that, how come I have never seen you? You're not a soldier here? I've been here since the beginning, and I'm sure I've never met you? ”

Zhang Lansheng didn't expect that there was a little devil at the entrance of the town in front of him, and it seemed that he was still an officer, and he was very vigilant, and he used his peripheral vision to look at a few Japanese soldiers who were guarding the searchlights on the town wall, and under the illumination of the light, Zhang Lansheng found that there were two machine guns aimed at his team, and he knew that he had no way to do it here, and once he did, he could not say whether he could seize the city gate. The front was not far from the fortifications that served as flank cover, and it was all exposed to the fire support of this watchtower. Even at night, they are completely exposed to the searchlight, and if they want to quietly take the city gate, they can only enter its interior to solve the problem. Otherwise, once you do it, you and others will be plugged by the Japanese machine guns.

Zhang Lansheng smiled and said: "I am Captain Zhang Shenglantai who was transferred from Xinjing, it is normal that you have not seen me, and I have only been here for a short time, as for why I came here, it is because I was ordered by His Excellency Major General Hamada Shinosuke to assist you, and on the way I met Sakata Nakasa, who was fighting with the Shina troops who attacked the Asahi Pioneer Regiment, and quickly dealt with this remnant of the bandit under our two-sided attack, because Sakata Nakasa was injured by the stray bullets of the Shina people in the battle, and now he is behind, For us to be the first to inform you to prepare for the reception of the follow-up troops, you must know that this time we have captured thousands of people, I really don't know where this group of people came from. ”

"I see, Lan Taijun, don't your soldiers look very regular?"

"They are all Taiwanese and Korean soldiers this time, of course, they can't be the same as the people of our empire."

Maybe it was Zhang Lansheng's fluent Japanese, maybe Zhang Lansheng's explanations worked, maybe it was because Yamazaki Ryuji believed that the soldiers of his empire could not be defeated by a few thousand stragglers, even if hundreds of imperial soldiers were chasing tens of thousands of regular soldiers in the Kannai.

"Yamazaki-kun, my department has just gone through a long journey, plus a battle in the middle, at this time we are already very tired, we need to rest, by the way, Yamazaki-kun due to the desperate resistance of the people of China to the troops of His Excellency Sakata has caused a large number of casualties, when I leave, His Excellency Sakata hopes that you can gather troops to meet it, after all, in addition to more than a hundred wounded people, he also has to guard thousands of bandits, and his defense is insufficient."

"Lan Taijun, okay, I'll send someone to take you to the barracks to rest, and at the same time, Ryūji Yamazaki called a Japanese soldier to tell the soldier what Zhang Lansheng had explained, and the soldier nodded, and took the lead in running back to the barracks to gather troops and prepare to meet Sakata Nakasa's troops.

With the thought of a whistle, the Japanese garrison soldiers scattered in all corners of the town gathered to the barracks, and even the guards who guarded the laborers at the station to carry materials were only less than ten people, and the rest of the people also hurriedly assembled to the barracks.

Zhang Lansheng led everyone to slowly walk towards the devil's barracks, of course, Zhang Lansheng left a platoon of anti-union fighters at the entrance of the town on the grounds that he cooperated with Yamazaki to pick up Sakata. Looking at the devil camp that was getting closer and closer, the entire army slowly strengthened its vigilance. Looking at the Japanese squad leader and a panting herald who ran over to greet him, Zhang Lansheng took advantage of the fact that Ryuji Yamazaki was talking, and whispered to the surrounding soldiers: "Spread out, find early favorable terrain and prepare for battle, and listen to my orders." As soon as he finished speaking, the squad leader of the Japanese army's remaining troops came to Ryūji Yamazaki.

"Report to Your Excellency Yamazaki, the entire garrison team, except for the ten soldiers at the station, all the remaining soldiers have been assembled, a total of 64 soldiers, please give a lecture to Your Excellency Yamazaki." After speaking, he bowed deeply to Ryuji Yamazaki, although Ryuji Yamazaki was retired, his official position at this time was the same as that of the squadron leader. (To be continued.) )
