Volume 1: The Battle of Songhu Chapter 97 Narrow Road Encounter

In the suffocating waiting, a Japanese soldier suddenly glanced at Owara Shigemi, and then set his eyes on a crooked-necked willow tree on the north bank of the Wusong River.

Ohara Shigemi's eyes suddenly showed a wolf-like expression, if there is an antenna, there will be a radio, and if there is a radio, there must be a headquarters of the national army, and combined with the geographical location of Anting, the headquarters of the national army located here is likely to be the bridge crossing command, which is responsible for the bridge crossing order of the divisions of the national army on the south bank of the Wusong River.

Although Ohara Shigemi's conjecture was not true, it was not far from the truth, what he found was the headquarters of General Xue Yue, commander-in-chief of the 19th Group Army, because there were too many national army troops stranded on the south bank of the Wusong River, and there was only one bridge to cross the river.

There is no doubt that if General Xue Yue's command can be eliminated, it can undoubtedly aggravate the chaos of the national army and buy time for the main force of the national army on the south bank of the Wusong River sent by Shanghai and the tenth army.

The key to attacking the detonation headquarters depends on timing, and if the timing is not right, even if the entire special combat team of more than 100 officers and men is compensated, it will not be able to take it down, but if the timing is right, only one combat group of more than 20 people will be enough, and the remaining four combat groups will be completely free to attack the national army headquarters on the north bank.

Shigemi Ohara, who was planning a sneak attack on the headquarters of the national army, did not notice that in the crowded and chaotic crowd, there was a national army officer with the rank of colonel coming from the north bank, and behind the colonel officer was more than a hundred national army soldiers, each of whom carried a wooden box on his shoulder, which was estimated to be full of munitions.

As he passed in front of Ohara Shigemi, the colonel's officer frowned slightly, as if he was a little confused, but soon he walked over as if nothing had happened.

After crossing the bridge and walking less than two miles, Xu Shijiu suddenly stopped.

In order to prevent the Japanese army from moving north and win time and space for the dozens of divisions on the south bank of the Wusong River to retreat, Chairman Chiang hurriedly opened the formation table of the three theaters and tried to find a few capable troops to block the attack.

At the critical juncture, Feng Shengfa, the commander of the 58th Division, took the initiative to ask Ying to fill the gap.

As soon as Chen Chengyi said that Chairman Jiang was naturally overjoyed, he even personally called Feng Shengfa, and said a few words of encouragement on the phone, but Feng Shengfa did not say a word, and directly gathered together the officers and men of the whole division who were still able to go to the battlefield and all the weapons and equipment that had been completed, and formed a reinforced brigade, led by Wu Jiguang, commander of the 174th Brigade, to seize Qingpu overnight.

At the same time, Feng Shengfa also played a trump card in his hand, that is, the 19th Independent Brigade, the 174th Brigade guarding Qingpu is the first line of defense, and the 19th Brigade guarding Baihe Port is the second line of defense.

Considering that although the 19th Brigade was neatly staffed, it had consumed a lot of weapons in the previous battles, especially the lack of machine guns, and the ammunition was in urgent need of replenishment, Feng Shengfa specially seconded a batch to General Xue Yue, commander-in-chief of the 19th Group Army, and Xu 19th and more than 100 veterans of the 19th Brigade went to the headquarters of the 19th Group Army to receive ammunition just now.

Ergua, who was carrying a wooden box and following behind Xu Shijiu, asked, "Captain, why don't you leave?" ”

"That's not right." Xu Shijiu ignored Ergua and said to himself, "No, no, no!" ”

Seeing that Xu Shijiu had words in his mouth, not only was Ergua confused, but even the more than 100 veterans behind him were also confused, what was wrong?

"Towel!" Xu Shijiu suddenly shouted, "The towel is wrong!" ”

More than a hundred veterans were still full of confusion, only Gao Shenxing seemed to realize something, and said in a deep voice: "Those dozens of people do have a problem, their towels are too clean!" ”

Since the Battle of Songhu has been fought until now, the officers and men of the national army have never left their positions for almost a moment, and their towels have already been stained with sweat, blood and all kinds of dirt, how can they still be so white? If it's just one person, or if this person has a habit of cleanliness, it's not worth making a fuss, but if there are dozens of them at once, then there is a problem.

"Go back!" Xu 19 pulled out the bayonet from his waist, turned his head and walked back.

Gao Shenxing threw the bullet box on his shoulder to the ground, and also pulled out the short sword he carried with him and followed, Ergua and more than a hundred veterans threw away the wooden box one after another, and also pulled out the bayonet from their waists.

"Target the ones with white towels around their necks, work in pairs, one for each group!"

"Don't hesitate, they are not our brothers, they are Japanese, they must be ruthless!"

"If possible, try to deal with them with bayonets, but don't hesitate to shoot when it's time to shoot, these little Japanese are not good at stubble, they are the elite of the Japanese army."

Xu Shijiu walked striding loudly to the veterans behind him, and most of the veterans looked indifferent, as if they were unconcerned about the upcoming desperate fight.

The second battle between Xu 19 and Ohara Shigemi broke out suddenly.

However, Xu 19 and Ohara Shigemi didn't know that this was the second battle between them, and they didn't know that they would have a third, fourth or even more battle in the future.

At this time, Shigemi Ohara had already crossed the bridge with the main force of the special combat team, and there was still a combat group left on the south bank.

Xu 19 returned to the bridge with the 100 veterans of the 19th Brigade, and easily found the white towels in the crowd.

Xu Jiu and Er Gua quietly forced one of the spies to one of the spies, in addition to the white towel around his neck, the spies also had a bandage wrapped around his forehead, and blood oozed out of the bandage, it should be a head injury, which would be leaning against the willow tree at the head of the bridge, his eyes were squinting, wilting, and he seemed to be very tired.

If you are not careful, this is simply an ordinary wounded soldier of the national army.

However, if you look closely, you can still find some obvious flaws, first of all, the expression on the face of the national army is very stiff, or very indifferent, not as anxious, angry or desperate as other national soldiers, and secondly, his complexion is very healthy, not at all like a seriously injured wounded, and the most obvious flaw is that when Xu Shijiu, who also had a white towel around his neck, stood beside him, he subconsciously lowered his head and bowed his head in the standard Japanese style.

The identity of the spy has been determined, Xu Shijiu glanced at Ergua on the other side, Ergua showed his elbow and stabbed the left rib of the Japanese soldier without hesitation, and the bayonet sharpened by Ergua cut through the Japanese soldier's uniform and flesh at once, and then pierced through the gap between the third and fourth ribs, straight through the heart.

Almost at the same time as Ergua took out the knife, Xu Jiujiu also reached out to cover the mouth of the Japanese soldier, and the heart of the Japanese soldier was completely penetrated by the bayonet, which instantly caused massive internal bleeding, and the pupils of the Japanese soldier began to spread in less than ten seconds, and the whole person collapsed softly in Xu Shijiu's arms.

When Xu Jiu and Ergua succeeded, Gao Shenxing also killed one.

However, the harvest of the 19th Brigade is only here, after all, the Ohara Brigade is not an ordinary Japanese army, these Japanese soldiers are obviously stronger than ordinary Japanese soldiers in terms of training and reaction, and the individual combat effectiveness of the 19th Brigade is slightly stronger than that of ordinary Japanese soldiers, which is a little insufficient compared with the Japanese soldiers of the Owara Brigade.

Except for Xu 19 and Gao Shenxing, the rest of the group failed to succeed, and two veterans of one group failed to sneak attack, and were even killed by the Japanese soldier in turn.

Jiro Araki was the leader of the 1st Battle Group of the Owara Brigade, with the rank of second lieutenant.

Shigemi Ohara went to the north bank of the Wusong River with the main force of the special combat team, and only Jiro Araki's combat team remained, responsible for solving the bridge guarding troops, seizing the detonation headquarters and blowing up the Anting Bridge.

When the two veterans of the Nineteenth Brigade quietly approached, Jiro Araki immediately realized the danger.

However, Araki Jiro did not show anything unusual, but waited quietly for the two to approach, until the soldier on the left quietly showed the bayonet hidden behind his elbow, Araki Jiro suddenly struck, grabbed the wrist of the soldier on the left and then went to the right, and the sharp bayonet stabbed the soldier on the right in the abdomen.

The soldier on the left noticed that something was wrong and hurriedly threw his left fist into Araki Jiro's temple, but it was too late, Araki Jiro's right hand had already rushed half a step in front of the soldier on the left, saying that it was too late, and then quickly, Araki Jiro's calloused rough right hand was like a pair of iron tongs and crushed the throat bone of the soldier on the left side.

The soldier hissed in his throat, tried to breathe in but could never get his wish, and in a few moments, blood bubbled from the corners of his mouth, and Araki Jiro let go, and the soldier collapsed limply, and it was only then that the soldier who had been stabbed on the right side suddenly screamed.

At the moment when the soldiers on the right screamed and fell to the ground, Araki Jiro had already strode towards the detonation headquarters not far away, and threw a national-made grenade into the dense crowd.

Almost at the same time, more than 20 Japanese soldiers who remained on the south bank of the Wusong River also threw their grenades around, and more than 20 grenades exploded one after another.

It's not messy, it's not good, there are too many numbers of the national army troops here, and they are all scattered, the division commander can't find the regiment commander, the regiment commander can't find the battalion commander, it's already very good to be able to maintain the company-level system, and the soldiers of the national army come from all over the country, and they have any accents, and they are anxious with each other, and they are basically talking about chickens and ducks, can you not mess up?

##########

As soon as the explosion on the other side sounded, Ohara Shigemi knew that the whereabouts of the special combat team had been revealed, and although it was not the best time to launch at this time, he had no choice, and immediately issued an attack order to each combat group, and although each combat group was not ready, it could only attack.

However, Ohara Shigemi was very anxious, and shouted before attacking: "Brothers, these officials don't care about our lives and deaths, and if they force us to die, we won't do it." ”

"Yes, let's stop doing it, let's kill these officials first."

"That's right, kill the official, the big guy is scattered, go home!"

Several special combat team members who were mixed in the crowd also shouted in the northeast accent, while secretly throwing a few grenades at the densest part of the crowd, and in the continuous explosions, the north bridgehead of the Anting Bridge also became a pot of porridge in an instant, because they didn't know what was going on, everyone could only rush around like headless flies.

Things were too sudden, the situation got out of control at once, in the chaos, Ohara Shigemi gestured to several team leaders, and immediately three battle teams separated from the chaotic crowd, and quickly launched a battle formation towards Xue Yue's headquarters, and the two guards guarding outside the gate of the headquarters were shot and killed as soon as they shouted zhanzhu.
