Chapter 93 The Japanese and puppet troops suffered heavy losses
Chapter 93 The puppet army suffered heavy losses
The Fujita Battalion of the Lunar Army and the 15th Regiment of the Imperial Army evacuated towards Wanjia Town.
After Major Fujita learned that Ishikawa's battalion had been completely annihilated, he worried that he would be hurt if he missed Fangdong's target.
Or did he want to quickly withdraw to Wanjia Town and wait for the independent fourth brigade to arrive?
When Li Yunlong and Ding Wei saw that scene, they naturally did not miss the opportunity. They commanded the troops to continue attacking.
Among the evacuating Yue puppet troops, some people were continuously hit and fell directly into a pool of blood.
The little devil's grenade legs quickly fired grenades and smoke grenades provided cover, which helped the troops escape the attack.
"What's going on? Why didn't those Yue puppet troops go to Qingshan Town? Instead, they withdrew to Wanjia Town."
"Old Li, I can't tell. The little devils in Qingshan Town must have been annihilated."
"The little devil's communication is smooth, so he can definitely get the news as soon as possible. The Qingshan Town Yue Army has been eliminated. What are they doing there!"
"Old Ding, am I really dishonest? I came to attack the puppet cavalry camp in Wanjia Town, and I hid behind to reap the benefits."
"We definitely took advantage of that battle. He saw that our New Second Regiment had quite a few medium-grade rifles."
"Come on, come on, we have to settle the accounts carefully. Let's just let Li do part-time work for free for the brigade commander. He must not do part-time work for free for me, Old Ding."
"Old Li, whether his New Second Regiment is indeed taking advantage, but whether it is also taking advantage of the Jinsui Army, it has nothing to do with my New First Regiment."
Li Yunlong and Ding Wei soon met, and they started to quarrel when they met.
Li Yunlong was a little jealous when he saw many soldiers of the New Second Regiment holding medium-sized rifles on their legs, with Hanyang Zao behind their backs.
He made a fuss and wanted to beg Ding Wei's legs to ask for wages, but Ding Wei wouldn't take advantage of it.
After the quarrel ended, the soldiers of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment also began to quickly clean up the battlefield.
The abandoned corpses of the Yue puppet soldiers were completely turned over by them, and even their clothes were stripped away.
"That Jinsui Army must be Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment. Why do they always give us benefits?"
"In the past, we did not support artillery troops, but now we do not have infantry and artillery mixed troops. Is this what Chu Yunfei meant?"
"No, the news from the brigade headquarters, whether Chu Yunfei is a student in Huangpu, has nothing to do with us."
"Old Li, who is that person in Bulong? But he is definitely willing to help our troops, and his commanding skills are very good."
"Not to mention anything else, he fought really well during the two battles in Qingshan Town. He took over Qingshan Town twice and killed more than a thousand little Japs!"
"What we have gained is simply insignificant in front of others!"
Li Yunlong and Ding Wei were talking about it, but of course they didn't know about Chen Ziyun's existence.
Could it be that it has been 40 years since various ministries in Shanxi Province appear to be operating jointly, but in fact each ministry has different ideas?
Chen Ziyun had never been an artillery company commander before, so he was little known.
Although he achieved several victories after that, Yan Laoxi kept it secret and did not publicize it.
Therefore, the Eighth Route Army conducted inquiries but did not get much useful information.
Just when the two of them were confused, a messenger came over in a hurry.
"Regiment Commander, Commander Ding, Qingshan Town Jinsui Army Communications Corps deliver the message."
"They have annihilated the Qingshan garrison and are preparing to quickly return to their base after cleaning the battlefield."
"The wrong side hopes that they can quickly evacuate the battlefield to avoid being encircled and attacked by the main force of the puppet army."
The messenger came to Li Yunlong and Ding Wei, quickly saluted and reported.
Li Yunlong and Ding Wei looked at each other, and their eyes lit up at the same time.
"Ma is gathering troops and advancing quickly towards Qingshan Town!"
The two old comrades-in-arms gave the order in unison.
Because they knew that when the Jinsui Army was cleaning the battlefield, there would definitely be no fish that slipped through the net.
The wrong party annihilated thousands of little Japs in Qingshan Town. They are going over now and are all ready to drink some soup.
After Li Yunlong and Ding Wei finished speaking, they looked at each other and hurried back to their troops.
Now for them, they must not be humble when they make mistakes. Whoever's troops pass through first will get the benefits.
Immediately afterwards, the troops of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment quickly advanced towards Qingshan Town.
Of course, by the time they passed, Chen Ziyun's troops had already left.
And just as they expected, there was a lot of loot on the Qingshan Town battlefield.
Chen Ziyun did not carry any damaged heavy weapons.
Moreover, Chen Ziyun also knew Lao Li's character, so he also deliberately left some trophies.
"Hahaha, Lao Ding, it doesn't matter that our troops have a large number of people. They found four destroyed heavy machine guns."
"Sending those four heavy machine guns to the arsenal can be exchanged for a batch of ammunition."
"Old Li, what are you talking about? Let me come over and see if that's what it is. Four destroyed infantry guns."
"My four heavy machine guns can be replaced with ammunition, and his four infantry cannons can be replaced with a few light machine guns."
Soon, the voices of Li Yunlong and Ding Wei competing in Qingshan Town were heard again.
Can the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment wipe out the entire Qingshan Town battlefield? By the time they leave, all that will be left is the naked corpse of Dong Dong!
In that battle, whether it was Li Yunlong's new regiment or Ding Wei's second regiment, they all gained a lot.
The two of them returned home satisfied. Of course, the atmosphere at the First Army Headquarters was completely different at this time.
At four o'clock in the morning, Army Chief of Staff Hideyoshi Kusuyama came to Commander Yoshio Shinozuka with a solemn face.
After repeated contact with the puppet troops, the casualties and losses of the puppet troops have been counted in the Wanjia Town and Qingshan Town area operations.
The Yue Army's 300-man garrison at Aoyama Town and the 1,400-man Ishikawa Brigade were completely wiped out.
Counting the approximately 200 casualties in Fujita's brigade, the Moon Army's casualties were close to 2,000!
The 16th Regiment of the Imperial Association Army suffered over a thousand casualties and was completely crippled.
The 15th Regiment of the Royal Association Army also suffered more than 300 casualties, and more than 300 people from the Royal Association Army Cavalry Battalion were wiped out!
The puppet army's casualties were around 1,800, which means that the puppet army suffered nearly 4,000 casualties that month!
Such numbers are shocking.
Kusuyama Hideyoshi, who commanded the battle that time, originally wanted to set a trap.
But they didn't expect that the trap would serve as a wake-up call for Fuyue's puppet army!
"Bagaya road!"
"Stupid pigs, those Imperial Alliance troops are simply stupid pigs!"
"Where is the current location of the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade!"
"Before the end of April, he doesn't want to hear about the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army and the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi Province!"
After Yoshio Shinozuka heard the report, his face was full of anger and he gritted his teeth and said.
It's no wonder that he was so angry. His carefully selected encirclement and suppression troops did not start the battle, but more than 3,000 casualties were lost.
For Yoshio Shinozuka, that would be a slap in the face!
