Chapter 176 Before leaving, dig a pit 3 more!
Dawn came, and the gloomy sky finally began to clear. Although it was only a short half hour, it was enough to bring a trace of warmth to people in a cloudy world.
While Yoshimasa Oshima was still busy cleaning up the mess, he suddenly received a report that a captured officer, Captain Lu Ze Masamori, had returned with a white flag. He took Yang Hao's message, asking the two sides to exchange the bodies of the dead soldiers.
In the temporary headquarters, under the angry gaze of a group of officers, Captain Lu Ze Zhengsheng fell to his knees, his buttocks pouted high, his face slapped flat on the ground, and he did not move.
Oshima Yoshimasa's face was grim as if it had just been burned by fire, black and burnt, and his two eyes stared at the back of his head like an awl, and he asked word by word: "Why didn't you commit suicide?!" โ
Lu Ze Zhengsheng is very cowardly.
The first shell didn't kill him, it just left him in the dust. But in the next wolf bรจi escaped, he was hit by an unknown bastard from behind, so that he could not die in a ditch in front of him, and he hit his head on the edge of the ditch, and fainted on the spot.
Yang Hao led people to charge in front, and those who couldn't keep up with him swept the tail while recovering the wounded soldiers, and he was caught alive by coincidence.
I didn't die at the time, and it's hard to die later. Although he was not tortured severely, Lu Ze Zhengsheng did not have much resistance in his heart. For such a soft egg, Yang Hao didn't bother to clean him up, and after making sure that some of the corpses of the Qing soldiers had not been brought back, he immediately ordered him to bring back the messages exchanged.
In a smearing war, the two armies were killed, and casualties were inevitable.
Yang Hao's troops all kept in mind that they would never give up on the Pao Ze brothers, so they brought back all the casualties they could find when they retreated. But there are always omissions. Especially those soldiers who are fighting for the first time. My mind went blank under the nervousness.
Not to mention the Qing soldiers. Their strict approach to the lack of intermediate officers. Except for a bunch of people huddled around the commander and swarmed, once dispersed, nothing would be done. When they retreated, they ran quite fast, but how many of them remember to clean up their own corpses?
Although the total number is not much, Yang Hao is still determined not to abandon and not give up.
Lu Ze Zhengxiong himself didn't have a face, so he simply knelt on the ground and let it be disposed of.
The officers next to him were furious at his silence and rushed up to punch and kick him. The attack is also extremely heavy, and they all treat him as an invincible enemy.
Oshima Yoshimasa is a veteran after all, so he forcibly suppressed his anger and drank everyone, pulled him up and asked, "In addition to changing the corpse, do they have any other requirements?" โ
"Nope."
Lu Ze Zhengxiong also felt strange, it is said that to such a point, the other party has taken advantage of it, and if he mentions some more conditions, I'm afraid this side will have to agree, right?
"So did you meet their commander? Or what have you found about the deployment of troops and equipment? โ
"Nope. I was blindfolded all the time. โ
Don't mention the grievance in Lu Zezhengxiong's heart. Except for hearing a couple of people speaking Chinese. He didn't understand it, and he didn't see the other party's situation at a glance.
Yoshimasa Oshima was helpless. No wonder people are so relieved to send him back, it turns out that they have already considered all kinds of possibilities. Maybe this guy hasn't even been to the other party's headquarters, or the other party doesn't know that the prisoner is actually a captain?
I really couldn't ask anything useful, so I waved my hand and ordered someone to escort Lu Ze Zhengxiong down. Yoshimasa Oshima thought about it again and again, and finally decided that he would personally go out for the replacement!
Ignoring the obstruction of his subordinates, an hour later, Oshima Yoshimasa, who had cleaned up the battlefield on his side, came to the foot of the mountain and the junction of the two armies with a few large carts with a few large vehicles.
There are still traces of various fortifications built during the previous attacks. There are a lot of Japanese corpses, neatly lined up, and the number is so large that it feels like you can't see it at a glance.
Looking back at the sparse dozens of cars on the cart, Yoshimasa Oshima had mixed feelings in his heart. Not only is this battle embarrassing, but the key is that this kind of bad feeling that is not as good as a human being, I am afraid that it will always accompany him for the rest of his life.
The officer who presided over the substitution soon came to the front, but Oshima Yoshimasa was disappointed to see a young and tall Qing soldier, it was Shi Jianfei.
Yoshimasa Oshima felt humiliated.
He tensed his face, his eyes shot out from above his glasses, staring at Shi Jianfei's raised chin, and said in a deep voice in more proficient Chinese: "I, the Ninth Brigade of the Imperial Japanese Army, Major General Yoshimasa Oshima." Could you please come out and meet with the Supreme Commander of your army? I'm curious to know who is losing. โ
He thought that his posture had been lowered as low as possible.
But Shi Jianfei did not pretend at all, a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his lips, and he said loudly: "On this position, I am the highest-ranking officer in the Great Qing Kingdom!" I'm sorry Mr. Major General, but we can't treat each other as equals for the time being! โ
Yoshimasa Oshima was furious, but he kept to his decency.
Shi Shaozuo, who was next to him, stepped forward and said sharply: "You know that Your Excellency the Major General said that he is the commander of another force!" โ
Shi Jianfei pretended to be surprised: "Oh? Is there another force here? Mr. Major General, I must solemnly remind you that on this position, the people who block your way are the Qing soldiers. Other than that, there is no one else. โ
Yoshimasa Oshima took a deep breath and nodded vigorously: "Very good!" Then let's not waste time, let's start the exchange! โ
He couldn't stay for a moment, he looked up and glanced deeply at Yang Hao, who was faintly visible on the mountain in the distance, and turned around and left. The rest will naturally be handled by others.
"Oh, it's a pity, such a face-showing thing made that kid give the first place. I said, sir, let's not let it go next time, okay? โ
Huang Lebo looked embarrassed. Obviously, we won the battle, but it turned out that this lottery was given to others, and he was not fair.
Yang Hao smiled and said: "There is some limelight, but it is still not good." Don't you see, the Japanese army is followed by a lot of foreign devil reporters. If you take pictures of us for them, it will attract a large wave of wolves to besiege them. For now, we have to keep quiet for the time being. โ
Taoguang is obscure and makes a difference. In other words, it is to dig deep holes, accumulate grain, build high walls, and slowly become kings.
The cause he wants to do, once it is laid out in the clear, is against the whole world. Before having enough power. He can't covet the scenery of the moment. Just bury the good situation and bury it in vain.
Huang Lebo doesn't have so much foresight. Irritably, he scratched his scalp, shook his head and went back to continue to recuperate the recruits.
At the foot of the mountain, reporters from all over the world have recorded this scene with their cameras or brushes.
At a time when there was still a vestige of classical chivalry in various countries, such an act was considered a symbol of civilized man. It is easy to say that the living fight and die, and it is commendable to give a decent restraint to the dead soldiers.
There is no doubt that Shi Jianfei has made a big splash.
Changed to another Qing army officer. Maybe he panicked. He has been in European countries for many years, and he is not afraid of this scene. On the contrary, he was fluent in English and German, and answered many questions from reporters, leaving an excellent impression.
Of course, the foreign devils' request to go up the mountain for an interview was unceremoniously rejected by him. What are you kidding, you have seen the truth and fiction, how will you mix it up in the future!
It was expected that the Japanese army would not be able to organize an effective attack for the time being, so they took advantage of the time to clean up the stalls at the bottom of the mountain. Yang Hao ordered the firepower company to disassemble the heavy weapons and transfer them from behind to Huangzhou. The wounded and the remains of the fighters were also carried away. By evening, there were less than five hundred elites left on the mountain.
This kind of change, Oshima Yoshimasa did not expect at all. He thought that Yang Hao would be here to the end, patronizing and trying to find a way, where would he have thought that Yang Hao would accept it when he saw it, this is going to run!
Yang Hao can't do it if he doesn't withdraw. The soldiers were exhausted from continuous combat, the ammunition consumption was quite severe, the weapons and equipment also needed to be maintained, and the main objectives of this battle were all achieved. If he continues to stay here and accompany the Japanese army, it would be a fool!
At night, the dark canopy of the sky is like a black cloth, covering the mountains and the reckless earth.
Yang Hao once again overlooked the Japanese camp in the distance from the top of Sheren Pass, and the hands hanging down his side were tightly clenched into fists, and he was secretly ruthless in his heart: "This time, I am not strong enough to let you go for the time being." Next time, when I lead thousands of troops, I will uproot your entire Oriental devil! โ
Turning around, he patted Kong Guanghan on the shoulder: "I'll leave the rest to you." Remember, save your lives first, don't take risks lightly! โ
Kong Guanghan said with a smile: "Sir, don't worry, Lao Kong is very good at ironing!" โ
Yang Hao nodded, and quietly withdrew along the back path with the guard squad and the remaining personnel.
When their shadows disappeared completely, Kong Guanghan rubbed his hands and bared his teeth at the twenty or so good hands under his hands: "Brothers, leave this great gift to the little devil, you must give the porcelain real point, and you can't waste the hard work of the sappers and brothers!" โ
"Understood! Mission completion guaranteed! โ
"Haha, Boss Kong said it well, there is no way back to discipline the little devil!"
Everyone waited and dispersed.
In a flash, it was already the early morning of September 9, and Yoshimasa Oshima, who felt insulted, quietly sent people out again.
This time, though, he was more cautious. The teams that came out were scattered, scattered with a radius of several tens of meters, and the total number was only one or two hundred, purely to touch the information.
The Japanese troops, who had had enough of suffering, repeatedly cautiously tried forward, and only after half an hour of grinding before entering the front line. But they pricked up their ears and didn't hear anything!
Something is wrong! The Japanese army became more and more nervous, and rubbed forward for less than two times, and there was a sparse gunfire in the cold, knocking down several of them.
"Sure enough, I'm prepared!"
The tentative team immediately retreated to dodge. After more than ten minutes, he groped his way closer again.
At three or four o'clock in the morning, more and more Japanese soldiers scattered over, and the gunfire on the mountain suddenly disappeared without a trace!
Odd! Where have all the people gone? Finally, someone who was brave rushed over with a rush of blood, only to find that the trench was empty!
They rushed up without giving up, until they reached the top of the Sheren Pass, and there was still no one!
"Enemy ...... The enemy troops are all withdrawn! โ
The herald stumbled into the headquarters, shouting excitedly. This kind of news has made them look forward to it for many days!
"Mud?!" Yoshimasa Oshima stood up with a shout, his face changed greatly, "Not good! Immediately let the troops who went up pull down, there is a problem! (To be continued......)
