Although the garrison brigade of Wuchun Watanabe was not able to destroy many of the Zhina Army in last night's battle, it thwarted the operation of the Zhina Army to smuggle war materials.

The commander of the 21st Division, Chihei Sakai, still sent him a commendation telegram from Shimen, praising Wuchun Watanabe.

Wu Chun Watanabe was squeezed out of Shimen County and became a little worse so that his mood was slightly better, after dark, he specially asked his cooking class to open a small stove for himself, fried two good side dishes, asked the adjutant to bring a few bottles of sake, and the two began to drink a little wine.

In the land of Hebei in August, the weather is still very hot, while drinking sake and shaking a pu fan, Wu Chun Watana ate a mouthful of dishes, intriguing: "Today's weather is really good." ”

The adjutant looked up at the endless starry sky dotted with stars, and said, "Yes, on such a refreshing night, it would be better if there were a few flower girls to play." ”

Wu Chun Watanabe smiled and said: "Qianlin-kun, you really said what I wanted, but it's a pity that all the people in the nearby branch have run away, and the flower girl is really hard to find." ”

"It's all the hateful Zhinatu Eight Roads, and the Zhina civilians in the Shimen jurisdiction have all run to their base area of influence." A lieutenant adjutant named Qianlin said.

"Yes, but now it's okay, the 21st Division is here, and it is the first victory, the imperial army has enough troops to hold Shimen, and waiting for the most suitable opportunity, it will definitely counterattack and reoccupy Luquan, Pingshan, Lingshou, and Zhengding counties!" Wu Chun Watanabe nodded, as if he had a feeling.

"Otherwise, tomorrow I will take a small team of people to the base area of the Eighth Road of China, and see if I can have good luck, catch a few flower girls and come back, so that Chief Wuchun can have a good time." Lieutenant Qianlin said with a flattering face.

Wu Chun Watanabe was obviously not drunk yet, waved his hand and shook his head and refused: "No, you can't take risks because of this, it's not worth sacrificing the lives of the imperial warriors, now that the eight roads of the country are in full swing, we must not risk our lives." ”

Lieutenant Qianlin was only on a whim, wanting to show his loyalty and please him, so he said this, and when he saw his opposition, he immediately secretly exclaimed that he was glad, and naturally he was not insisting.

Instead, Watanabe continued to pour wine for Takesumi, and the two began to talk about Japan and their respective hometowns while drinking.

At the same time, Qiao Youhua and Wu Ming took more than 100 guards from the guard company and more than 200 elite veterans of the third battalion to form a night raid commando, and quietly left Zhengding County under the cover of night, and came to the vicinity of the Wuchun garrison brigade.

The main defense task of the Wuchun Garrison Brigade is to rely on the confluence of the Taiping River and the Hutuo River, which is only a few tens of meters wide, to build a cordon defense line in the west of Shimen City, which plays an early warning role for Shimen.

After nightfall, about two-thirds of the devils of the Wuchun brigade fell asleep in the temporarily dug trench fortifications after dinner.

The remaining one-third are responsible for sentinels, guards, and other tasks.

Qiao Youhua led more than 100 soldiers who knew how to go down the river from the Hutuo River by boat, and when they reached a range of about 500 meters away from the Taiping River, they took the lead and quietly went into the water, and other soldiers also followed into the water.

They carried weapons and equipment and began to swim across the armed river, while Wu Ming and Zhao Youde took the remaining more than 200 soldiers to take the collected wooden boats, and the fishing boats followed and stopped, waiting for Qiao Youhua's orders to attack again.

The swimming distance of 500 meters is trivial for ordinary soldiers who know how to swim, not to mention Qiao Youhua, the super soldier king, about ten minutes later, he quietly arrived at the shore with more than 100 elite soldiers, still lurking in the water, only his head exposed.

Qiao Youhua raised his binoculars and observed for a while, and after determining the interval time between the ghost patrols passing by, he waited until another ghost patrol team passed by, and took the lead and quietly went ashore.

More than 100 soldiers lined up and climbed ashore from the water, holding all the weapons they were carrying.

Following Qiao Youhua quietly approaching in the direction of the devil's position, it is naturally impossible for the Japanese army's trenches to be dug next to the river, because it is too close to the river, and it is common sense to dig it down.

Therefore, the trench fortifications of the devils are still three or four hundred meters away from the Taiping River, which is enough to ensure that any enemy target who wants to cross the river is within the absolute effective fire range of the Japanese rifles, light and heavy machine guns.

Qiao Youhua's goal this time was to raid the devil's trench and kill the devil as much as possible, so they didn't attack the devil patrol that had just walked over.

More than 100 people quickly bent their waists and quietly rushed towards the Japanese trenches under the cover of night.

The devil doesn't have an epoch-making telescope like Qiao Youhua that can see at night, and Qiao Youhua and their steps are very light, so until Qiao Youhua and they almost rushed into the devil's trench.

was discovered by a Japanese sentry, but before he could fire a warning shot, Qiao Youhua used a matching gun, raised his hand and shot him dead.

As soon as the guns rang out, the soldiers no longer hid, but accelerated in vain, rushing to the edge of the devil's trench with lightning speed before the devils in the trenches could react.

These commandos were armed with either submachine guns or light machine guns, all of which were automatic firearms, and they stood outside the devil's trench with fierce strafing.

More than 100 soldiers were separated by two or three meters, and the large number of bullets they fired instantly shrouded the Japanese trenches for hundreds of meters.

Hundreds of devil soldiers had just opened their eyes, and before they had yet to wake up from their deep sleepiness, they were sieveed by the dense and hot bullets and went to meet their Amaterasu.

During the fire, some of the soldiers threw their grenades at the other trenches of the devils, and in just a few minutes, they killed at least a third of the strength of the Wuchun brigade.

At the same time, Wu Ming and Zhao Youde also led more than 200 follow-up soldiers, drove the boat close to the shore, quickly rushed up, and joined the battle.

These soldiers are all automatic weapons, and the assault firepower is very powerful, seeing a rare opportunity, Qiao Youhua and Wu Ming agreed to capture this Japanese trench, and after succeeding, after quickly evacuating, they led the soldiers to launch a surprise attack along the devil's trench in two ways.

At this time, Wuchun Watanabe, who was already drunk, was finally awakened by the sudden sound of guns and explosions, and walked out of the military tent with a little shaking, and shouted to the adjutant Lieutenant Qianlin: "Qianlin-kun, what happened?" ”
