Chapter 27: Ambush of Sasaki's Squadron (1)
"Prospecting, there's still a batch of supplies to come." Zhao Zhi touched his chin and thought, Shanxi is not only a large coal-producing province, but also has a lot of rare minerals, the army is so eager to occupy Shanxi is to seek Shanxi's minerals, not only soldiers are needed to fight a war, but also weapons, ammunition and necessary materials, and the premise of these things is to have enough mineral support, which is why the main reason why Yue Ben must seek China.
"Then let's not leave first, take down this batch of things and then say" After getting the information he wanted, Zhao Zhi only left Miyamoto, and dragged the other puppet soldiers away with broken necks and buried them in the backyard, there is a large flower garden in the backyard of Zhao's rich man's house, which is just used to bury these corpses, with these corpses as fertilizer, I think the flowers and trees will grow very well in the coming year.
As soon as the mercenaries dragged the puppet army who had turned into corpses out of the hall, Yu Dazhi came back with the pressure of the rich man Zhao, and happened to walk opposite the corpses, and the rich man Zhao with a sad face saw the puppet army who had turned into a corpse and trembled like chaff in fright, "Hero, hero, I handed over all the money in the family, can you not kill me" Rich man Zhao knelt on the ground as soon as his legs were weak, and kowtowed vigorously to Zhao Zhi.
Yu Dazhi smiled and whispered a few words in Zhao Zhi's ear, opened the cowhide bag he was carrying and showed it to Zhao Zhi, there were more than 20 gold bars and some oceans in the cowhide bag, Yu Dazhi was really a guy who was good at scraping the ground, the gold bars and oceans that the rich man Zhao hid at home were searched out by him, and there were more than these things, the mercenaries who came in also carried some valuable objects in their hands, it seems that the rich man Zhao's house has been searched by Yu Dazhi and them like locusts crossing the border.
"24 gold bars, 120 oceans, Martin They also found some tobacco and jade, Mo Lun is looking at those antiques, this old boy is still quite able to save money, Mo Lun estimates that there are a lot of valuable things in his house" Yu Dazhi squinted his eyes and looked at the rich man Zhao, they also found a lot of things in the room in the backyard, but they really didn't have time to look for them carefully in the middle of the night, so Yu Dazhi and they just hastily took some valuable objects back.
"Forget it, keep an eye on the people in his family first, and look for those things carefully when it is dawn" Zhao Zhi just took a cursory look at the things that the mercenaries brought back, his mind was already on the batch of exploration materials that Miyamoto said, these objects in the rich man's house couldn't get into his eyes, "Gather their guns and clothes, tell the brothers to be careful, there may be a big surprise for us every day"
Xu said that Dongsheng, Ranzhuang, who had been silent all night, began a new day's hustle and bustle, and people who visited the door, did business, and squatted on the corner of the street began to appear one after another, and the two imperial soldiers who stood at the door of the rich man Zhao were replaced, and they were replaced by two soldiers whose faces were half covered in steel helmets, but the military uniforms on their bodies looked a little short, as if these soldiers had grown taller and stronger overnight.
The two soldiers at the door of the rich man Zhao were naturally pretended by Zhao Zhi's people, one was Ye Kong, who was proficient in the language, and the other was a knife, Zhao Zhi had already learned that the batch of materials that Miyamoto was waiting for would be sent directly to Ranzhuang today, so he planned to wait for the rabbit, so he took the mercenaries to guard the road over the batch of materials, waiting for the army to escort the batch of materials to the door, and Ye Kong, who stayed in the house of the rich man Zhao, they were just in case, once the army broke through Zhao Zhi's ambush and fled to Ranzhuang, Ye Kong, who pretended to be the army, would clean up the mess.
There was no movement in Ranzhuang all morning, Ye Kong and they only collected a few truckloads of wood and stones, and the batch of materials that Miyamoto said did not have a shadow at all, and the people who came and went past the door of the rich man Zhao still wondered what happened to these soldiers today, and they didn't scold or tease women, could it be that the sun came out in the west, and the soldiers changed their surnames.
"Coming, coming" Yu Dazhi, who was wearing the clothes of the Zhao family, ran back, he was sent by Zhao Zhi to inquire about the news, "The little devil is here, looking at about 100 people, three trucks, and the rest are coming on horseback" Yu Dazhi is right, it is indeed the army that came, and it is the Kwantung Army directly transferred from the northeast, but Yu Dazhi misjudged the number, this group of soldiers is not only 100 people, but a whole squadron, plus the configuration of drivers, communication troops, and medical soldiers, a total of 230 people.
Sasaki was a little bored looking around on horseback, they were the most warlike Kwantung Army in the army, but they were sent to escort what supplies and exploration experts, compared to those troops who directly participated in the battle to attack the city and seize the land, their squadron has lost a lot of opportunities to gain combat merits, which made Sasaki very uncomfortable, and he was sullen all the way, "Your Excellency Shaosa, there is Ranzhuang in front, there will be an infantry squad to pick us up" Sasaki's adjutant Takada smiled and rode up on his horse, Sasaki's face has not had a good face, Takada Yanneng who joined the army and was together didn't know what Sasaki was thinking at this time.
A gunshot interrupted Takada's laughter, the military hat on Sasaki's head flew out, and half of his skull flew out, "vomit" Takada did not immediately get off the horse to hide, but desperately vomited, Sasaki's splashed brain had a large lump fell into Takada's mouth, the hot, slippery, greasy and bloody taste made Takada even vomit out of the overnight meal, "bang" was another gunshot, and Takada, who was leaning over and vomiting, fell from the horseback like a stake.
The sound of gunfire is the signal, just now it was still silent on the left side of the hillside suddenly appeared a steel helmet with withered grass, and then a dense burst of guns shot over, Zhao Zhi put all the submachine gunners on the slopes on both sides, forming a crossfire to deal with the first wave of attacks in the net of the army, the snipers were divided into two teams to deal with the officers and heavy firefighters of the army, the formation of more than 100 meters of Sasaki's squadron had already entered the ambush circle when Zhao Zhi shot Sasaki, The heavy fire of the submachine gunners caught the Japanese soldiers on horseback by surprise.
After all, Sasaki's squadron is still the famous Kwantung Army in the army, after being knocked down by a rain of bullets on the hillside, the machine gunners in the queue have begun to counterattack, but after the machine gunners fired a few shots, they were shot off by the hidden snipers The skull, "hidden, hidden" The remaining troops hid behind horses and trucks under the command of a soldier, looking for fighters to fight back, But they didn't know that just behind them, a steel helmet with withered grass had quietly emerged on the hillside, and the muzzles of those black holes had been pointed at their defenseless backs.
