Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 45 Asking for Help

The Longkou County Military Police originally had only one squadron of troops, but after the loss of two squads by the Erlongshan guy, that is, after the arrival of Koji, the strength of the troops was greatly strengthened, and the brigade commander Fujido Takahide, who was independently mixed into the 14th Brigade, transferred two squadrons from the limited strength and specially equipped Kotera with an armored car.

In this sortie, Koji took away the main force of the gendarmerie, and only two squads were left in Longkou County.

Xu Shijiu knew Li Yuxian's identity on the premise that he didn't bother to discuss the disposal of drugs with her, just to grab time, before the little Japan who stayed in Longkou County got the news, and took the county in one fell swoop because the little Japan who went to Toad Tip to clear the bandits did not carry any radio equipment, in other words, the little Japan that stayed in Longkou County has not yet received the news that the main force of the gendarmerie has been annihilated.

From Liyuzui to Longkou County, it took more than 70 miles to walk for more than two hours.

By the time Qiao dressed as the nineteenth detachment of the Japanese army appeared outside the east gate of Longkou County, it was already midnight.

The mighty convoy came, and the little Japan guarding the city was immediately alarmed, and a dazzling bright light shone down from the city, and at once it locked on the side three wheels of the first few cars, and almost at the same time, the sound of pulling the bolt and pushing the bullet to load the head of the city also sounded.

Murata, the leader of the infantry squad guarding the east gate, poked his head out of the battlements and asked in a loud voice, "Which part of you are here?" ”

Although the castle looked like it was facing a great enemy, Murata and the six or seven Japanese soldiers around him were not nervous at all, because the troops outside the city were both side three-wheeled motorcycles and trucks, and it could never be the Chinese army

Gao Shenxing jumped down from the side fight, pulled the captain's military uniform he was wearing, this military uniform was stripped from Xiaosi, and it was also the only set of captain's military uniform, Gao Shenxing deliberately walked to the strong light of the searchlight, so that the Japanese army at the head of the city could see his rank, and then raised his head and scolded sharply: "Baga, is this how you greet friendly troops."

Gao Shenxing spoke with an authentic Kyoto accent, and the faces of several Japanese soldiers at the head of the city immediately changed.

The 14th Brigade of Little Japan's independent mixed brigade was organized in Kumamoto, and for the children of peasant families born in Kumamoto, Kyoto is a fascinating paradise, and the children born in Kyoto are even more authentic and superior people in their eyes.

The class divisions in Little Japan are far more serious than expected, and the hierarchy is even more rigid to the extreme.

"Hello." Murata was obviously also affected, and bowed repeatedly to Gao Shenxing at the head of the city.

Gao Shenxing swayed his momentum, snorted from his nostrils, and said coldly: "Why don't you hurry up and open the door?" ”

"Hayi, Hayi" Murata agreed, with a few Japanese soldiers trotted down the city tower, opened the closed city gate, the convoy started again, slowly entered the city through the city gate, the vehicles in front of them passed in turn, Zuihou A truck stopped on the inside of the city gate with a creak, and then jumped out of the truck compartment More than 20 Japanese soldiers.

Murata took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and was about to hand it to the Japanese second lieutenant who came first, when he suddenly found that more than 20 friendly troops who got off the car were fanning out and faintly surrounded them.

Murata opened his mouth to shout, but his mouth was covered by the opponent's fan-like hand, and the other party exerted another force, only to hear a click, Murata's head was reversed at a strange angle, his neck was broken, and the person quickly choked his breath, and several other Japanese soldiers were quickly stabbed to death by more than 20 friendly soldiers who surrounded him with bayonets.

Without much effort, he deceived the city gate and solved the city gate defenders, Xu Shijiu immediately left part of his troops to guard the city gate, guarded the back road, and then took the rest of the personnel to the gendarmerie headquarters, at this time, most of the residents of the county town had already slept, and the entire county was immersed in a quiet.

Moments later, however, the fierce gunfire woke people from their slumber.

Wars are always full of accidents, no matter how clever the commander is, he can't anticipate the enemy's chances, let alone let the war always develop according to his wishes, two Japanese soldiers because they drank in the drunken fairy building, returned to the camp in the middle of the night, and saw a patrol soldier killed by the 19th detachment at the corner of the street.

The two Japanese soldiers immediately woke up in fright and immediately fired warning shots.

The sudden sound of gunfire alarmed the Japanese troops guarding the gendarmerie, and the sneak attack turned into a strong attack.

Although there were only two infantry squads left in the small Japanese in Longkou County, one of which was still scattered and stationed in Simen, there was actually only one infantry squad left behind in the headquarters of the gendarmerie, but even if there was only one squad, it was enough for the 19 detachments to spend a long time.

If it weren't for the fact that he had just won a battle at Liyuzui, this group of rabble was in high spirits and morale, Xu 19 didn't even have the confidence to take the gendarmerie headquarters, and the war was temporarily deadlocked, but Xu 19 was not very worried, after all, the Japanese army had limited strength, and it would definitely be Little Japan that would be finished.

The only thing Xu Shijiu was a little worried about was that the Japanese troops in the neighboring Tongling and Qingyang counties would rush to help, although Tongling County and Qingyang County were more than 100 miles away from Longkou County, but if Little Japan came by car, it would only take three hours to walk fast, in other words, if the battle could not be resolved before dawn, then the battle would have to be withdrawn.

(Dividing Line)

Xu Shijiu guessed correctly, the Japanese army in Longkou had indeed asked for help from the outside world.

Although Xu Shijiu had already asked Li Mu to cut the telephone line from Longkou County to the neighboring counties before entering the city, the Longkou County Military Police had a radio station, and even if the telephone could not be reached, it could still communicate with the brigade headquarters of the 14th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Jiujiang.

When the adjutant came to report, Fujido Takahide had just fallen asleep, and he hurriedly got up again.

When he walked into the war room, Fujitang Gaoying's mood can be imagined, he didn't know how many times he scolded Xiaoji in his heart, Fujitang Gaoying had high hopes for Xiaoji, and originally expected him to be able to eliminate bandits after arriving in Longkou, rectify the security of Longkou, and make it a model county of public security in Central China.

In order to achieve this goal, Fujido Takahide specially transferred two squadrons to Kotera

You must know that several neighboring counties, such as Qingyang and Tongling counties, have only one squadron stationed, but Longkou County has sent two infantry squadrons, and Fujido Gaoying even equipped Koji with an armored car and a motorcycle team, in order to strengthen the mobility of the Longkou gendarmerie and eliminate the Longkou bandits more quickly.

But now it is good that the bandits have not been cleared, and even the county seat has been attacked.

What annoyed Fujido even more was the consequences that this incident would cause

Once Longkou is lost, it will become the first county town in the entire Central China Theater to be recovered by the national army, and Fujido Takaei can fully imagine how Commander Okamura Ninji will be angry at that time, because this will once again write an extremely disgraceful page in Okamura Ninji's resume after Wanjialing.

"Xiaoji, this idiot, still can't be contacted?" Fujido Gao Ying asked as soon as he entered the door.

The armored car that Fujido Takahide specially provided to Kotera was equipped with a car radio so that he could communicate at any time

However, what Fujido Takahide didn't know was that in the Liyuzui ambush, Kotera's armored car made the national army's heavy machine guns into a sieve in the first wave of attacks, and the on-board radio was also broken, so from the very beginning of the ambush, Kodera Jungoro lost contact with Longkou County and the 14th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade.

Facing the gaze of Fujitang Gaoying, the communications staff officer shook his head bitterly.

"Eight...... Yaru. Fujitang Gaoying burst out a curse word from between his teeth, and then immediately ordered, "Order, Tongling County and Qingyang County immediately send reinforcements to Longkou"

The chief of staff whispered: "Brigade commander, there are Zhina armed forces operating in Tongling and Qingyang counties, and there are not many garrisons in these two counties, if you send reinforcements to Longkou again, these two county towns will be empty, so you have to transfer troops from Chizhou to Tongling and Qingyang counties to strengthen the garrison." ”

Little Japan has an infantry brigade stationed in Chizhou, and there is no main force of the Nationalist army nearby, so it is no problem to transfer two squadrons to strengthen the defense of Tongling and Qingyang.
