Chapter 18: Take the initiative
Zhengding County, the Japanese garrison headquarters.
The new commander, Captain Sasaki, was sitting on his desk to formulate an encirclement and suppression plan that was about to begin, when a report suddenly sounded.
"Your Excellency, Commander, there is an emergency report from the Imperial Army." A devil guard shouted at the door.
Hearing this, Sasaki stood up and said awe-inspiringly, "Let him in." ”
The devil guard immediately dodged and let in a trembling puppet army.
Sasaki looked at the person, and asked in a slightly kind voice: "You drop, what important information do you want to report to the imperial army?" ”
"Too, Taijun, the little one has found that gang of thugs." The puppet army was a little scared and stammered a little when he spoke.
"What?" When Sasaki heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, walked around the desk and came to the puppet army, grabbed his shoulder and said, "What are you talking about?" Found the thugs? Was it the thugs who attacked the convoys and warehouses of the Imperial Army? ”
"I guess so, there are dozens of them training together." The puppet army replied as if walking on thin ice.
"Where are they? Say it?! Sasaki couldn't hold back his excitement and asked.
"Report to Taijun, they are in Zheng Village, one hundred and eighty miles away from the county seat." Pseudo-military road.
Sasaki smiled, and the puppet army who looked at it was furious: "What's your name?" ”
"The villain's name is Li Ka-shing, and he is from the fifth security team of the county emperor's army." The puppet army said in a low voice.
"Very good, Li Sang, you have made a great contribution to the imperial army, and the imperial army will greatly reward you." Captain Sasaki patted Li Ka-shing's shoulder with a smile on his face and said.
The puppet army named Li Ka-shing was stunned at first, and then hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Thank you Taijun, thank you Taijun, it is the honor of the villain to serve the Imperial Japanese Army." ”
Captain Sasaki waved his hand: "You go down, when the imperial army exterminates this gang of thugs, it will give you a great reward." ”
Li Ka-shing respectfully stepped back, while Sasaki walked straight to the map, muttered Zheng Cun in his mouth, and then slapped on the map: "This is it, this time see where you are going." After speaking, the corners of his mouth were already filled with a smug sneer.
………………
In Zheng Village, in the evening, with the assistance of all the members of the Dragon's Tooth Task Force, the people of the whole village had already left the village and entered the mountains and forests behind the village for temporary shelter.
On the training ground at the head of the village, Ma Biao, Jiang Haidong, Wu Ming, and Zhang Yunshan had already returned with 65 team members, and they were lined up in two columns waiting in the center of the training ground.
Qiao Youhua was dressed in a camouflage military uniform, carrying his own 92-style pistol at his waist, and came to everyone majestically, his eyes swept back and forth coldly, and everywhere he looked, the soldiers all held their heads high.
After a pause, Qiao Youhua said loudly: "Brothers, our whereabouts have been exposed, and the devil's encirclement and suppression force may appear soon, although you have not yet reached my training benchmark, but the devil is about to come to the door, and you can only grow up in actual combat."
As the old saying goes, no one is born to fight, and it is never possible to train elite soldiers on the training ground.
You are all good men, iron-clad men, why can little devils fight well, and we are sheep to be slaughtered? Fuck the guys in your hands, and fight to the end with those Oriental miscellaneous bloodies, they are all carrying a mouth on two shoulders, who is afraid of whom?
Send you a word, all of them will be remembered in my heart, and the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road! ”
"The brave wins!"
"That's a good point, they're all five-foot-tall men, how can they be afraid of the short little Dongyang!"
"Don't worry, captain, I'll kill a few little Toyo for you to see!"
was instigated by Qiao Youhua's words, and more than 60 team members began to clamor, one by one, gearing up, and it seemed that they were eager to fight the little devil to the death immediately.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Qiao Youhua waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "Now we don't have an advantage in troops, so we have to make some preparations in advance before the devil comes, so that the little devil can taste the power of our dragon tooth task force!" ”
"Ma Biao, Wu Ming, you lead everyone to build a defensive position on the spot, and make full use of the buildings in the village to offset the devil's superiority in strength and firepower." Qiao Youhua said to Jiang Haidong again: "Haidong bring a few good marksmanship, follow me as a guard, if you find the Japanese army, you will launch an attack on them, slow down the speed of the Japanese army's march, and buy time for Ma Biao and them to build a position." ”
Ma Biao and Wu Ming are both from the 21st century like themselves, they have been influenced by the essence of various tactics, and they know the essence of tactics with a weak enemy, so how to arrange fortifications does not need Qiao Youhua to worry about at all.
Marching and fighting is not something that can be done by one person, it should be handed over to his comrades-in-arms, Qiao Youhua never hesitated, he didn't want to learn Zhuge Liang to do everything, and as a result, he died of overwork, which triggered the eternal resentment of dying before leaving the school.
At the moment, they were divided into two routes, Ma Biao and Wu Ming led people into the village to start arranging and building fortifications, while Qiao Youhua and Jiang Haidong left Zheng Village with several recruits who had improved their marksmanship the fastest.
The only way to the county seat to Zheng Village lurks in the area.
Qiao Youhua's quick response was not in vain after all, because Captain Sasaki, who was eager for revenge, immediately gathered all the troops he could gather after learning their location, a total of two full infantry squadrons and more than 200 puppet troops, about 600 people, quietly drove out of the city in the evening and rushed towards Zheng Village.
At this time, the remnants of the original Ida Squadron were left behind in the city, and the Ida Squadron had lost almost half of the time in the previous series of attacks, and now it has not had time to replenish due to the tight front-line fighting.
So he was left by Captain Sasaki to defend the city.
When Qiao Youhua and Jiang Haidong marched about twenty miles in the direction of the county seat with five soldiers, the time had already come to eight o'clock in the evening, and the night was already completely dark, but there was a bright crescent moon hanging in the distant sky.
So tonight's night was brighter than usual, and suddenly, an extremely dazzling light flashed on the road in front of them, and Qiao Youhua and Jiang Haidong immediately squatted down and stopped advancing.
Jiang Haidong said: "Head, it seems to be a car head!" ”
Qiao Youhua listened sideways and said, "It's a motorcycle and a truck, it seems to be a ghost." With that, he raised his binoculars.
Jiang Haidong also raised the high-precision telescope with night vision that he got from Ma Biao and looked towards the end of the road.
In order to save ammunition, they did not carry cross-era weapons such as Type 88 sniper rifles and Type 95 assault rifles this time, but each of them had a Japanese-style Type 38 rifle.
Soon, through the binoculars, they could clearly see that a side tricycle with dazzling lights was rumbling first.
It was followed by at least ten military trucks full of Japanese troops, and behind the trucks there were also a large group of devils and some puppet soldiers who followed on foot, and the specific strength was not clear for the time being.
Jiang Haidong calculated slightly: "I'm obedient, boss, this time the little devil is really pouring out, ten trucks with twenty people each are two hundred, and the ones running behind are no less than three or four hundred, so to speak, the Japanese puppet army is five or six hundred, and the strength is ten times that of ours!" ”
"The devil has suffered such a big loss from us, so it is not surprising that the revenge heart cuts out so many troops." Qiao Youhua lightly opened the 38 cover insurance in his hand and continued: "It doesn't matter how much he comes, let's kill the side three-wheeled motorcycle first." ”
Because of the limited fuel, although Qiao Youhua and the others had captured a side three-wheeler and nine military trucks before, they all ran out of fuel after driving back to Zheng Village, so Qiao Youhua and the others had to come to the ambush on foot, so when they saw that the devil's convoy was not driving in style, they were angry.
