Chapter 118: Ambush and Sneak Attack on the Japanese Army (Part I)
The Japanese troops on both sides of the hill frantically pursued the retreating Tohoku army at the foot of the mountain, and the outrageous number of traps did not stop them well, and Lieutenant General Nakamura Satoru kept urging his soldiers to intensify their attack, and he wanted to get there before Major General Shose rushed to the base camp of the Shina army.
When the Japanese pursued the Northeast Army descending the mountain, they encountered all kinds of traps and blockades, and they had to be very careful with every step.
A Japanese soldier while dodging the Northeast Army, while cautiously advancing, he walked to a tree, several bullets instantly hit the tree, flying debris into his eyes, nervous he hid directly behind the tree. But as soon as he stood behind the tree, he suddenly felt something on the ground tie his legs, and with a whoosh he was hung upside down in mid-air, and the gun was thrown to the ground. It turned out that the Japanese soldier stepped on the trap and was dragged directly into the air by a rope, so frightened that he almost urinated.
"Ah......, help!!"
As soon as the Japanese soldier shouted, he was hit by several bullets in the body, and blood continued to run down his head and hands to the ground.
The nearby Japanese soldiers rushed over immediately after hearing the call for help, no matter how soon they were dragged into the air with ropes tied to their feet like this soldier, and then they were shot and killed indiscriminately, leaving only a few corpses hanging in the air and dangling, which was terrible!
A few Japanese soldiers cautiously leaned forward, they had just seen a few soldiers of the Northeast Army in front, and now they were probably hiding behind those huge trees.
"Ah......h
The two Japanese soldiers who were walking in front suddenly stepped on the air and fell into a trap, and in the panic, they reached out and pulled the soldiers behind them, and then two soldiers were pulled and fell into it together.
The soldiers who did not fall into the back subconsciously took a step back, and then leaned forward to check, and they were startled at a glance, only to see that the soldiers below were pierced by the bamboo spear or wooden spear sharpened by the roots of the tree, and the blood stained the entire bamboo tip, and the soldier's mouth was still spitting blood from time to time, which was simply miserable.
The Japanese soldier above swallowed his saliva unconsciously, all the goosebumps on his body stood up, cold sweat continued to flow out, and he didn't dare to move.
This kind of situation is constantly staged, some fall into traps and die, some are tied and hung in the air and are killed, some are smashed and stoned to death by stones in trees, and some are so frightened that they are urinating.
"Bang!"
General Nakamura Satoru smashed the telescope in anger, and the casualties suffered by the pursuing Shina army were too great to make him very heartbroken, and he was killed in such a humiliated manner, and everyone would be angry.
"No amount of difficulties can stop us from advancing, and we must pay a greater price for the army, try to circumvent those traps and obstructions, and end the battle on the mountain as much as possible." Lieutenant General Satoru Nakamura said helplessly. He didn't have a good way to face this kind of headache traps, these traps were all in the shadows, and they couldn't detect them in advance.
In any case, the Japanese had to pay a huge price if they wanted to rush down the mountain quickly, and the traps on the mountain were haphazardly laid all the way down the mountain.
The Japanese army in the mountain pass had already rushed into the valley at this time, and the northeast, which had no time to retreat, hurriedly counterattacked, and even had no time to pack up and take away the supplies, so that the Japanese troops who entered the mountain pass were very satisfied after seeing it.
"Da Da Da ......"
"Quick, hurry up, the devil is coming!"
"Don't escape, fight back, or Lao Tzu will kill you!"
As soon as the Japanese entered the mountain pass, the northeastern soldiers inside shouted that they wanted to flee, and although the officers pointed guns at the fleeing soldiers and shouted and threatened, a large number of soldiers fled, and only a small number of soldiers returned fire.
The officers of the Northeast Army saw this scene in the eyes of the Japanese army, and they all laughed at the cowardice of the Northeast Army, and now they saw the imaginary image of the Chinese army, which was the result they wanted.
"Hahaha, chase me, it's all a bunch of cowards, destroy them!" Major General Shose still rushed forward under the protection of a group of soldiers, and the officers behind turned their heads to stop looking at him after seeing it, which was simply ruining the mood!
"Withdraw, don't fight anymore, it's almost time!" An officer of the Northeast Army, who had retreated to the foot of the mountain, said to the soldiers who were gritting their teeth and refusing to leave.
"Battalion commander, I want to avenge my brothers, if you want to go, you can leave, I want to ...... with the Japanese army"
"Smack!"
"This is an order, you can't refuse, otherwise even if you die, you won't be able to enter the Imperial Martyrs' Cemetery, ruining the commander's plan, and you will think about the consequences. In the future, there will be opportunities to kill devils, and you will withdraw whatever you are anxious about! "The battalion commander went up and slapped him, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of the soldier's mouth.
The few soldiers who refused to leave bowed their heads, if they stayed, they would definitely die, it was absolutely impossible to surrender as prisoners, the battalion commander was right, there was a chance to beat the little devils.
After a while, the Northeast Army at the foot of the mountain retreated, and without the Northeast Army's blockade, some traps would lose their power, and the Japanese troops on the mountain quickly broke through and saw those traps rush to the bottom of the mountain.
During the descent from the mountain, the losses of Lieutenant General Nakamura Jue's army were very strict, and the number of traps alone exceeded 1,000, and the total loss of more than 2,000 was added to the number of people killed by the Northeast Army, which made Lieutenant General Nakamura Jue's face extremely blue.
The Japanese troops who pursued all the way down the mountain on both sides lost about 5,000 soldiers, which can not be said to be without the loss of Yan zhòng, which was greater than the loss of the attack, and they could not be blamed, the Northeast army had not set these traps in front of the mountain pass before.
Lieutenant General Nakamura Satoru led the rendezvous Japanese troops all the way to the base camp of the Northeast Army, and basically did not encounter any Northeast soldiers on the way, and even if they did, the Northeast soldiers would run away frantically without stopping them.
At this time, Major General Shose also arrived with his soldiers, and all the northeastern troops encountered in front of them fled, and they naturally advanced here, but they were only one step slower than Lieutenant General Nakamura Satoru.
When he saw Lieutenant General Nakamura Satoru, Major General Shose's gaze could eat people, he couldn't imagine that Nakamura Satoru would arrive here so quickly, and also block his pursuit of the Shina army.
"No, I can't let Nakamura Satoru rob me of my credit, this base camp of China also has my share, there are a lot of materials that China can't transport away, and I have to grab back my own credit and materials!" Major General Shose thought in his heart that he was able to attack the base camp of Shina also had his share of the credit, but now he was taken over by Nakamura Satoru alone, which is really hateful.
Looking at the soldiers of the Northeast Army who were still scurrying around, Shaose suddenly paid attention, and he and several officers next to him said softly: "The credit here has been taken by that guy Nakamura Satoru, you see that they look reluctant to let us come, they definitely don't want to share it with us, so wait a minute, you guys ......"
"Chong, occupy the base camp of China, don't let go of any of the people of China, and rob them of everything!" After Major General Shose shouted, several officers in the back also shouted, and then the soldiers rushed in regardless of the Japanese troops in front.
Lieutenant General Nakamura Satoru also knew Shuse's intentions, but he didn't stop it, he just told the soldiers not to have a dispute, he didn't think it was a big credit.
It didn't take long for the base camp of the Northeast Army to be occupied by the Japanese army, and the last retreating Northern Army hurriedly retreated, Major General Shose seemed to want to pursue, and Nakamura Satoru didn't want to pursue, but Ueda Arisawa and others ordered him to pursue.
According to Ueda Arisawa's request, they chased after and annihilated the entire Northeast Army in one fell swoop, but Nakamura Satoru believed that it was impossible to annihilate all the Shina army, and the strength of the Shina army was definitely quite a lot.
Satoru Nakamura shirked in the name of exhaustion, in fact he was also a little tired, but there were other people who wished he didn't go, and then left a chance for them, and finally the other two lieutenant generals and Major General Shose went together.
In the battle for the mountain pass, less than 110,000 of the 230,000 Japanese troops remained, while the Northeast Army had only 70,000 left of the 200,000 troops, which can be described as heavy losses. In the eyes of the Japanese army, the remaining troops of the Northeast Army at this time were about 50,000, and it was definitely enough to send 70,000 people to pursue the Northeast Army, and most of the supplies of the Northeast Army were here, so they could not resist the attack of Shose at all.
The last retreating northeastern army was fighting back while retreating frantically, and the wolves were extremely bèi, sometimes retreating into the mountains and forests, sometimes walking on the main road to Jilin, while the Japanese were excitedly chasing behind.
"Commander, the ...... has been received The news of the last retreating troops, an army of about 70,000 men was now approaching here. "The officer never gave the bait out, which was cruel to that army.
"Got it, let the soldiers get ready, if we can annihilate them all, we can counterattack back and recapture the mountain pass position." Zhang Zuoxiang's eyes revealed a burst of excitement.
The Northeast soldiers lying on the mountains on both sides pointed their guns tightly at the road below, lying there motionless, even though the sweat had soaked their military uniforms, they didn't even dare to gasp for breath.
I saw that a group of about 5,000 Northeast soldiers entered their field of vision, and this Northeast army quickly walked past the place where they had arranged an ambush, and the Japanese troops behind followed closely.
The Japanese army soon followed a small part of the Northeast Army out of the place where the Northeast Army was arranged, and most of the Japanese troops later entered the ambush range.
"Da Da Da ......"
The northeastern army that had fled suddenly stopped and counterattacked the Japanese army that was pursuing them, and the Japanese army that was caught off guard was caught off guard by this army, and the soldiers in front fell down in an uproar.
The Japanese troops behind were very excited to see the Northeast Army stop and send them to their deaths, and they frantically rushed to the front, and soon the entire Japanese army entered the ambush range.
