Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Way Home

The second team was led by Qi Sixian, the commander of the fourth battalion, and several of them could drive cars. The four captured vehicles were quickly driven to a relatively secluded valley, where the three armoured cars had been dumped.

Duan Shuanghu jumped out of the car and said excitedly: "It's so fucking cool!" Travel, we'll be able to drive back in a few days. ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled bitterly: "How many more days? With such a toss this afternoon, our whereabouts will soon be revealed, so we must evacuate tonight! ”

Duan Shuanghu said: "The devil didn't find out about us so quickly!" ”

Zheng Weiguo looked straight and said, "Remember, never underestimate your opponent!" ”

Duan Shuanghu said: "But we don't have enough cars!" ”

Zheng Weiguo sighed and said, "I have estimated that it will take at least nearly twenty cars for all the brothers to squeeze into the car, but where do we have so many drivers?" So, there's no need to get a car next. Let the brethren have a good rest, and we will go as soon as it gets dark! ”

Duan Shuanghu was unwilling and said, "Aren't these four cars in vain?" ”

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Of course it's not in vain, whether you can get out of the city smoothly at night depends on these cars." ”

Armored vehicles are good, but they carry fewer people, which is not conducive to disguised raids. Ordinary cars can squeeze dozens of people, and it is not easy to arouse the vigilance of the enemy.

That night, Zheng Weiguo personally led a car to take the lead, and the troops went around the highway to the southern suburbs of Taiyuan and then marched southeast. He hoped to pass between Yuci and Shouyang, and then go all the way south and back the way he came. Liu Zida is still waiting on the road with three companies and more than 1,000 militiamen!

The warriors were nervous at first, but they didn't touch the devil after walking a long distance, and everyone gradually put the hearts they had lifted back into their stomachs. Although these areas have fallen, the Japanese army has limited forces, and at most they control some towns, and it is impossible to block all the junctions.

The fighter who drove the car said: "Brigade seat, you guessed accurately! Such an important section of the road, the devil is unguarded. ”

Zheng Weiguo laughed and said: "Guarding along the way, how many people do you need!" Even if Seishiro Itagaki stood guard in person, it wouldn't be enough. ”

The soldier said: "But when I was in Xinkou and Taiyuan, I felt that there were a lot of devils!" At every turn, a brigade rushed up. ”

It's not surprising that he feels this way. The Japanese army has a very strong ability to maneuver, and they can often take advantage of this advantage to form a situation in which they fight more and fight less on local battlefields. The Chinese troops were trapped in one place, lacking cooperation with each other, and they became alone if they were not careful.

In general, the command of the Chinese army at the Battle of Xinkou-Taiyuan was so unsuccessful that it felt like plugging a leak. Itagaki poked a small hole in the roof of Shanxi, and Commander Yan sent a force to block it. At the very end, nearly 300,000 troops sprinkled out like pepper noodles, and they were so pressed by less than 30,000 devils that they couldn't move.

In fact, there are many elite divisions in these troops that are brave and brave to fight, as long as one or two corps are sent to the rear of the Fifth Division, it is enough to relieve the difficulty of Xinkou, and if you are lucky, you may be able to eat one or two wings of Itagaki like Taierzhuang. It's a pity that Chief Yan is not Chief Li, so he can't make such a big move.

Zheng Weiguo glanced at the soldier and said with a smile: "What's your name?" With your words, it will not be a problem to be a company commander in the future. ”

The warrior grinned and said, "Hehe! His name is Xu Qingyuan, a native of Wutai! ”

This little fellow of Chief Yan later made many meritorious contributions, and really became a company commander of the security regiment. Well, that's a story for later.

The two gossiped a little, and the car drove a few miles further. A small town is outlined by sporadic lights, right in the way of the intersection ahead. Xu Qingyuan said: "Brigade, the town in front of you is called Lijia Town, and cars must pass through here. ”

Zheng Weiguo looked at it and said, "The devil is only afraid that there are heavy troops here, so inform the brothers to prepare for battle!" ”

Walking so far ahead and not encountering a single outpost, in fact, it is not entirely a good thing, because it is very likely that the devil has abandoned those less important areas, and then concentrated his forces to guard some transportation hubs.

Zhang Changgui and the most elite brothers of the security team were in the carriage, and for those who had never been in a car for many years, it was not a very pleasant journey. In addition, the Japanese military uniforms on some soldiers have not been done well, and they are particularly uncomfortable to wear.

For the soldiers, it is better to fight the devils than to toss and turn in half-dried clothes, so everyone is a little excited after hearing the order. Zhang Changgui relied on his good skills, grabbed the roof and the edge of the carriage, stuck his head out of the window and said to Zheng Weiguo: "Luzao, are you going to do it!" ”

Zheng Weiguo glared at him and said, "You wait to be smart, and try to catch the enemy by surprise." As he was talking, his face suddenly changed and he said, "Hey, it's not good! There seem to be more enemies than we think! You immediately signal the second group to come to the rescue. ”

While speaking, Zheng Weiguo and the car they were riding in had already arrived at the intersection in front of the town. There were improvised barricades, and a detachment of Japanese troops stood guard on either side of the barricade.

A soldier stood in the middle of the road with a signal light in his hand and shouted: "Stop, check!" ”

The car rushed to a stop in front of the soldier's toes, startling the guy. He was about to curse, Zheng Weiguo stuck his head out of the window and scolded: "Bastard, don't delay my time!" ”

Seeing that it was a second lieutenant, the soldier didn't dare to scold, and said aggrievedly: "Second lieutenant, our department was ordered to inspect here, please cooperate." ”

Zheng Weiguo pretended to be impatient, opened the car door and jumped down, stared at the soldier and said viciously: "Soldier, what do you want to check?" ”

The soldier shrank back and said, "Please show your ID and travel documents!" ”

Zheng Weiguo shook his hand and slapped him in the face, causing this guy to turn around in a circle. He grabbed the soldier by the collar and yelled at him, "Baga! Soldier, you are testing my patience! I order you to let it go now, now! ”

A military cao rushed up, presumably the captain of the detachment here. He rushed up to the two, tried to separate them, and shouted, "Ensign, you can't do this!" We are carrying out the orders of our superiors! ”

Zheng Weiguo pushed Jun Cao away and shouted, "Baga! Don't be your superiors in front of me! I'm higher than you in terms of rank! ”

While the argument was raging, a group of Japanese soldiers rushed over with a lieutenant. The lieutenant shouted angrily, "Yaga, what are you doing? ”

Jun Cao hurriedly said: "Sir, this second lieutenant refuses to accept the inspection and beats my soldiers!" ”

The lieutenant stared at Zheng Weiguo and said, "Is that so, second lieutenant?" You are tarnishing the honor of the soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire! ”

Zheng Weiguo did not show weakness and said: "It is not me who tarnishes the honor of the soldiers, but these bastards!" They don't know how to respect a warrior who has just returned from the front! Lieutenant, please order your men to let them go immediately, me and my men need to rest now, not blow the cold wind here!" ”

The lieutenant felt that his majesty was being challenged, and he was furious, jumped over and pointed at Zheng Weiguo and scolded, "Are you talking to a lieutenant?" Looks like I'm going to have to teach you how to respect your superiors! ”

Zheng Weiguo glanced at him contemptuously and said, "The superiors who can only block the road and set up cards are not worthy of my respect!" ”

The lieutenant couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "Baga! Saying that, he jumped up and was about to slap Zheng Weiguo.

Zheng Weiguo grabbed the lieutenant and shouted at the back: "What are you still doing in a daze? Show these bastards our bravery! With that, he threw the lieutenant to the ground and slammed him up.

The soldiers, who had long been unable to hold back, jumped out of the car with a howl and rushed towards the devil empty-handed. Some soldiers took off their coats and looked very violent, but in fact, the wet clothes were too uncomfortable to wear, so it was better to take them off and have a good time.

Although there is a tradition of "going down to the top" within the Japanese army, this kind of scene of beating up an officer in public is really rare. The devils are stupid, and they are at a loss. Zhang Changgui and his brothers pounced. Seeing that they were not using weapons, the devil thought that he was going to fight with them, so he had to "passively respond".

The fighters have been trained for so long and are better, but the devils are also well-trained, and there are more of them. The two sides soon got together and had a lot of fun.

At this time, the lights on the highway are bright. An armored car and two trucks sped in front of them, then came to a squeak at the intersection. Before everyone could react, a Shao Zuo jumped out of the car and scolded, "What are you doing? Is group fighting something a military should do? ”

Zheng Weiguo shouted: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, these left-behind personnel actually beat us warriors who came down from the front line, please punish them heavily." ”

At this time, the unlucky lieutenant had already been beaten by Zheng Weiguo and fainted. Several resentful ensigns and non-commissioned officers refuted one after another, and accused Zheng Weiguo of being the culprit behind the "fight incident".

Feng Kun scolded angrily: "Can a slap be slapped? Don't try to quibble, you're all responsible! Stand on the side of the road, I'm going to take care of this myself! ”

With a wave of his hand, a group of soldiers rushed up with their guns in hand. The devils did not dare to resist, so they had to retreat to the side, and the warriors took the opportunity to collect their weapons. Another group of soldiers moved the barricades out of the way, opening the way for cars.

Feng Kun stepped forward and said, "The supreme commanders on both sides of the conflict have stood up for me!" ”

Zheng Weiguo stood up cooperatively, and the devil said sadly: "Our lieutenant was knocked out by the guy!" ”

Feng Kun said contemptuously: "How can such a weak person contribute to the Imperial Holy War? Yo West! You fight and take off your clothes, so take them all off! In fact, he wanted to get these relatively clean military uniforms, so as not to get blood on the other side.

Because Zheng Weiguo and the others also took off their clothes obediently, although the devils were dissatisfied, they still obediently began to take off their coats. Feng Kun was secretly happy in his heart, thinking that the soldiers would not have to wear wet clothes after waiting for him.

At this time, a devil suddenly screamed and said, "Not good! They are fakes! ”

Feng Kun's face changed and he said, "Do it!" The fighters also subconsciously began to attack, especially the machine gunners who stayed in the carriage, and opened fire with a da-da-da, sweeping down a large number of devils on the spot.

The devil knew that a catastrophe was coming, and he tried his best to resist, but he had no weapon in his hand, so he could only be slaughtered. As soon as the warriors had eliminated these devils, a large group of devils suddenly rushed out of the town.

It turned out that the Japanese army, which had several units stationed in this town, did not belong to each other. They rushed to reinforcements only after hearing the gunshots.

Zheng Weiguo hurriedly said: "Quick! Rush all the way in an armored car! ”

A brave soldier started the car, then slammed the accelerator all the way down and slammed into the Japanese soldiers in the street. The devils screamed in terror and tried to flee in all directions. But this is a straight alley, there are not many places to hide, and many devils were killed on the spot, and even those who escaped were quickly killed by the soldiers who charged behind the car.

Zhang Changgui led his brothers to rush and kill a few times, and came back to report: "Luzao, this town is relatively large, and it is very difficult to eliminate the remnants of the enemy!" ”

Zheng Weiguo was a little annoyed and said: "It seems that it is impossible to continue to hide your whereabouts, so inform the large army to come over quickly." We've got to get out of here quickly. ”

The fighters took advantage of the firepower to take control of several streets leading to the southbound road, and then covered the rapid withdrawal of the large force from the town. The troops walked for most of the night until they reached a small village. This village is right on the side of the road, and the traffic is very convenient.

Early the next morning, the Japanese army began a frantic search for an enemy who "dared to offend the majesty of the Great Japanese Locusts." They used squadrons and even squads as units to search every corner of Lijia Town by casting a net. At the same time, a large number of soldiers patrolled the highway in cars.

The Qingshan Squadron is one of them, they are the closest to Lijia Town, and they have cars to ride, so they are the fastest to go south. After walking for several hours, the troops suddenly stopped. Squadron Leader Kojiro Aoyama shouted, "What happened? ”

A soldier jumped out of the pilot car and trotted all the way over to report: "Sir, there is a roadblock at the intersection ahead!" The soldiers stationed on duty demanded an inspection. ”

Aoyama Kojiro was a little upset and said, "Bastard, could it be that the army of the empire is a fake?" He jumped out of the car, walked to the intersection and shouted: "Our unit has been ordered to chase and suppress the remnants of the enemy, please let it go immediately!" ”

Cao Cao, the big man standing guard, was about to speak, when a group of soldiers walked out of a house at the entrance of the village with a young man in his arms. Shao Zuo said: "You can only be released after inspection, Your Excellency should have heard about the tragedy in Lijiazhen." We suspect that there are Chinese troops who are pretending to be Imperial troops, and they have even robbed Imperial cars! ”

Aoyama Kojiro was taken aback and said, "My department was ordered to come to pursue this enemy, and I heard that many imperial warriors' coats were stripped by the enemy, but I didn't expect it to be this reason!" ”

Shao Zuo nodded solemnly and said, "That's right, so please cooperate with the inspection to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings." ”

Kojiro Aoyama had no choice but to order all his men to get out of the car for inspection. During the inspection, Shaozo asked them to put their weapons aside, and then asked them to take off their coats.

At this time, the weather was cold, and the soldiers were reluctant to take off their clothes. Kojiro Aoyama didn't understand either, and said, "Why do you have to take off your clothes for inspection?" ”

Shao Zuo explained, "Because the people of China like to wear pants, and the Imperial warriors like to wear pocket cloths, I have to look at it to feel at ease. ”

Kojiro Aoyama was impressed when he heard this, and said, "Yo Sai! Your Excellency is so wise. ”

Shao Zuo waved his hand, motioning for them to hurry up. With Kojiro taking the lead, the soldiers quickly took off their coats and trousers.

Kojiro Aoyama said, "Your Excellency, you can rest assured now! We are all true Yamato warriors! ”

Shao Zuo smiled: "Very good, you now know how the coat of the Japanese army in Lijiazhen was taken away!" With that, he flashed to the side, revealing a row of black muzzles.
