Just when the spy battalion was in full swing preparing for war and wanted to swallow the brigade that the little devil had come out of Heyuan County in one gulp, the commander of this brigade, Yokoyama Yoshihiro Nakasa, was looking at Tian Wenshan, the commander of the Fifth Regiment of the Third Group of the Locust Cooperative Army, with an unhappy face, and he was eager to draw his knife and cut people.

"Yaga!

Tian Sang, this is the third time that your team has applied for a break today, if you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I have reason to suspect that you are a member of the Eighth Road, deliberately delaying our time! ”

Tian Wenshan broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and he complained bitterly in his heart, so he hurriedly defended:

"Yokoyama Taijun, how can a lowly position be a person from the Eighth Road?

It's really a lowly subordinate to push these heavy supplies, and it takes a lot of physical effort to move, and they can't walk! ”

Although he is so bitter, of course Tian Wenshan also has his own little Jiujiu.

In the past two months, the locust alliance army in Jindi has been under the command of the headquarters of the First Army, going everywhere into the mountains to collect grain, search and hunt for the Eight Routes, and they are not allowed to bring more heavy weapons and ammunition, and often one company after another is eaten by the Eighth Route.

He, Tian Wenshan, naturally had to be very careful, lest his regiment be as unlucky as those colleagues.

So when his 5th regiment was sent from Jinyang to Heyuan County, he made up his mind, but he asked for no fault, not for merit, once he was asked to go out to find the stubble of the Eighth Road, he could drag it out, not delay, and find a way to drag it.

Anyway, there is only one principle, and it is best not to let him meet the eight roads.

After all, he was in the Locust Army, just to make money, not to die!

That's why now, he's going to play this set of tricks.

Yokoyama Yoshihiro didn't know Tian Wenshan's careful thoughts, and he wasn't interested in knowing, so he just said viciously:

"Yaga! I think you're a coward!

Now rest for ten minutes, after 10 minutes, immediately hurry up, if you can't catch up with Qixia Town before dark, I will make you regret giving birth! ”

"Yes, yes, Yokoyama Tai-kun."

Seeing that the other party promised to rest for ten minutes, Tian Wenshan was immediately very happy and pretended to be submissive.

But he was muttering in his heart: Hmph, ten minutes? You old devil just dream.

As long as I sit down, in less than half an hour, you don't want them to stand up again!

Sure enough, ten minutes later, Yokoyama Yoshihiro gave the order to continue the march.

The locust soldiers were all spread on the ground, motionless.

Angry, Yoshihiro Yokoyama pulled out his sword and was about to kill.

These locust allies saw that the Taijun were about to kill, so you reluctantly stood up and lined up.

But one by one, you stood up, I sat down, and tossed firmly for half an hour before I acted.

Yokoyama Yoshihiro was so angry that he smoked, but he was helpless.

If all these wastes are killed, then the task of carrying the baggage will have to fall to the locust warriors, which will affect the combat effectiveness of the warriors.

And just as they had not gone far, the telegraph operator suddenly ran to Yokoyama Yoshihiro with it:

"Your Excellency the Brigade Commander, Your Excellency the Wing Commander sent a report, saying that after the confirmation of the aviation this morning, Qixia Town has been captured by the enemy, the Xiachuan Brigade has been completely annihilated, and we have lost the goal of rescue."

"Nani?

A brigade of the Shimokawa Brigade was wiped out? ”

Yokoyama Yoshihiro was dumbfounded.

The squadron leader next to him, Keita Kogura, was also equally surprised, and hurriedly asked:

"The information that Your Excellency Wing Commander synchronized with us before, didn't it say that the Xiachuan Brigade took the ironclad train to Qixia Town to rescue?

Although it was ambushed by the Dirt Eighth Road, it should be extremely easy to hold out for 48 hours with the heavy artillery and heavy machine guns on the ironclad train, right?

Why is it that it has been wiped out in less than 30 hours now?

Could it be that the Tubalu dispatched the main force of more than one division to besiege them? ”

They received a rescue order at noon yesterday and immediately led their troops out of the city, and because of the slow movement of the Locust Alliance, they only walked dozens of miles until it was dark.

After camping on the road for the night, they continued to march at dawn today, but they did not expect that after walking for a while, they got this new situation.

For Keita Ogura's question, the telegraph operator was, of course, unable to answer, and could only pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Yoshihiro Yokoyama asked with a gloomy face:

"Did Your Excellency Wing Commander order us to withdraw?"

"Yes."

The telegraph operator nodded.

Yokoyama Yoshihiro pondered for a while, and immediately said:

"Call back to His Excellency the Wing Commander immediately to inform us that we are about to arrive in Qixia Town, and it is a pity to return immediately.

Although the Xiachuan Brigade has been completely wiped out, the humble hope is to enter Qixia Town to investigate the situation of Tubalu. ”

The first brigade he led was under the command of the 226th Wing, which had been ordered to rescue Heyuan County.

At that time, after they arrived at Heyuan County, due to the attitude of Wing Captain Okamura Shiro Osaaki to protect himself, they never got a fight.

Without fighting, there will be no military merits.

Yoshihiro Yokoyama, these captains, are naturally very unwilling.

So this time they got the order to go out of the city to rescue Qixia Town, and several of their captains almost had to hit the dog's brain in order to grab this task.

In the end, Yoshihiro Yokoyama of the first brigade grabbed this task.

As a result, now, he has only marched once in arms, and he has not seen the face of Tubalu at all, and the wing captain actually asked him to go back, how can he be willing?

So he told a little lie, lying that his troops were about to arrive in Qixia Town.

The telegraph operator didn't know where the team was now, but when he heard Yokoyama Yoshihiro's words, he quickly nodded and agreed, and went to send a telegram.

Soon, he came back with a call back from Wing Captain Shiro Okamura.

Yoshihiro Yokoyama took the telegram and looked at it, and was immediately very pleased:

"Yo Si!

Your Excellency the Co-Captain is indeed wise. ”

The squadron leader next to him, Captain Keita Ogura, hurriedly asked:

"Your Excellency, what is our next mission?"

"Go on, occupy Qixia Town, and destroy the anti-aircraft guns of Tubalu!"

Yoshihiro Yokoyama's eyes were full of cruelty.

"Nani? There are still anti-aircraft guns on the Tuba Road? ”

Keita Ogura's mouth opened wide.

"Not bad.

The telegram from His Excellency the Wing Commander said that the Tubalu destroyed 12 bombers of the air force in two wars with heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, which is simply a disgrace to our locust army! ”

Yoshihiro Yokoyama was also shocked when he saw this record.

12 bombers, such a big loss, I'm afraid it will shake the Northern Hebei Front!

Even shake the base camp.

At that time, I'm afraid that General Shinozuka will be criticized a lot.

Thinking like this, he suddenly had another thought-

If at this time, if his own brigade can eliminate this eight-way force, wouldn't it be that he will get the attention of General Shinozuka and will be promoted soon?

In this way, maybe one day, I can become a general!

Thinking of this, he was a little enthusiastic, and he couldn't wait to rush to Qixia Town immediately and wipe out all the dirt roads that dared to occupy the town.

Moreover, he felt that after the Tubalu annihilated the Xiachuan Brigade, he must also have suffered heavy casualties and was exhausted, and his own brigade would definitely be able to easily annihilate it when he rushed over.

So he didn't take the words in Okamura Shiro's telegram reminding him to be cautious.

Putting the telegram away, he brandished his command knife and ordered:

"Hurry up, speed up the march of the whole army, don't let the earth eight roads run!

Make a contribution, just today! ”

……

On the side of the special agent battalion, Yang Yuanshan came to the mountain pass of Hedi Village with the guard squad, and saw that He Yunfu had already led people to work hard, so he didn't bother, and walked to the side to observe.

I saw that this is a trumpet-shaped mountain pass, with a narrow road to the east and a wide road to the west.

It is very conducive to our army to fight and block.

This is also the main reason why he asked He Yunfu to come here to build a position.

Now, Yang Yuanshan couldn't help but nod secretly when he saw that He Yunfu had deliberately built the blocking position at about 800 meters at the narrowest point of the mountain road.

At this distance, it happened that the little devils came out of the narrow mountain road, and before they could start the formation, our army would be able to carry out artillery bombardment on them, and at that time, the losses of the little devils would definitely be very heavy.

And at this time, it is difficult for the little devil to fight back, and the distance of 800 meters is far beyond the effective range of the 38 big cover.

"Lao He, the trench excavation of the first line of positions has been completed, and if you retreat 100 meters, you will dig the trenches of the second and third positions to leave us with room for maneuver, understand?

We have few troops, and our fighters are not combative, so we need to make more preparations. ”

Yang Yuanshan walked to He Yunfu's side and confessed.

"Yes! I understand. ”

He Yunfu nodded hurriedly.

He understood what the other party meant, this was to prepare that after the first line of positions was lost, he could retreat to the second and third lines of positions to block them in echelons.

You can even plant explosives under the position in advance and pit the little devils fiercely.

……

After seeing the position, Yang Yuanshan climbed up to the side of the mountain cannon and observed it around with a telescope.

Suddenly, he saw a cave on the side of a nearby mountain and was overjoyed.

Xindao: Hehe, isn't this a chance to take out those 8 Erlikon 20mm machine guns?

Immediately, he pretended to walk around unintentionally, climbed from one mountain to another, pretended to come to the cave casually, and threw eight machine guns and 40,000 rounds of ammunition into it.

Then shouted:

"There's something in this cave!

Xiaohe, get a torch! ”

Zhang Xiaohe, a guard not far away, hurriedly ran over when he heard this, went in the dark to take a look, and shouted in surprise:

"Battalion commander, there seems to be an ammunition box in here!"

After saying that, he hurriedly ran out, and after a while, he came in with a few people with torches.

Then everyone was stunned, and saw that there were 8 strange guns inside, which looked like guns were not guns, and weapons that looked like guns and were not cannons, and there were tons of ammunition boxes piled up next to them.

Zhang Xiaohe couldn't help but exclaim:

"Battalion commander, how can there be so many weapons here?

What kind of cannon is this?

The caliber is so small? ”

"Then who knows!

We've found out, and this weapon is ours.

Looking at the caliber of this cannon, it should be 20 mm, and it looks like it should be a machine gun.

Quick, get some more people, and get these cannons down the mountain. ”

Yang Yuanshan replied in a fake way.

When Zhang Xiaohe and the others heard this, they said in their hearts: That's right, why do you care so much? If you can fight the little devils, you can do it!

Maybe God saw that our eight-way equipment was too scarce, so he sent it on purpose?

……

Soon, they called He Yunfu and others, who were originally digging trenches at the foot of the mountain.

When He Yunfu and the others saw these things, they were naturally surprised.

They all looked at Yang Yuanshan with admiring eyes, and said in their hearts: The battalion commander's luck is too good, how can he casually observe the terrain and pick up the cannon?

This artillery can also be picked up casually??

He Yunfu hurriedly asked Yang Yuanshan:

"Battalion commander, this looks like a 20mm machine gun, when I was in the new regiment, I heard the old soldiers in the regiment say that there are two of these things in the division, but there is a shortage of shells, and if you want to fire a shell, you have to approve it from the division commander."

Yang Yuanshan nodded when he heard this:

"Well, the one in the division should be the Suluotong ST-5 20mm machine gun, which was often given when we were reorganized."

"Yes, yes, that's the name.

Battalion commander, this cannon, isn't it?

Although the weight of this thing is not heavy, it is not easy to carry it halfway up the mountain. ”

"Then who knows.

It doesn't matter what kind of artillery he is, if he can hit a little devil, it is a good artillery, you can quickly get this thing down the mountain now, and then arrange it behind the position you dug, and I will ask Feng Shuanglin's anti-aircraft artillery company to make these machine guns when you go back.

When the little devil comes, with these cannons, I don't believe that the little devil doesn't cry and call his mother. ”

"Yes!"
