Huang Yu sneered and replied: "No matter how cunning the fox is, he can't hide it from the eyes of the hunter."
"Now Okamura Neji is the fox under our gun. No matter how cunning and desperate he is, he can't escape the end of being hunted by us."
"Even if he escapes in this counter-sweep, we will still kill him in the next counter-sweep."
"Commander..."
"Since there are not as many little Japs on the front lines as we have seen, can we take action?"
"Concentrate the independent brigade, special forces regiment, and three garrison regiments, a total of more than 8,000 troops, to pull out the tiger's teeth and eat up the main regiment of Okamura Neji."
"If this old devil is good enough, let's stop by for a round of reinforcements, and there's no problem in eating two more of their brigades."
Kong Jie nodded immediately: "The troops left behind in the base area have not fought for several days."
"The soldiers have high morale and are worried that they can't find an opponent to vent their anger."
"Since the little devils have sent the fighter plane to us, there is no reason not to seize it."
"It's still the same old rules. You guys are stationed at the enemy's headquarters, and I'll lead two regiments to fight for reinforcements. Maybe with good luck, we can run into one or two groups of young Japanese."
…………
Dagang Town, a town where the Japanese army's sixth blockade line is located.
According to the scheduled combat plan, the Japanese 105th Regiment will arrive here at noon to repair the fortifications and try to have a place to sleep before dark.
But under attack by guerrillas and assault companies, they delayed their arrival at Dagang Town until three in the afternoon.
The puppet troops immediately dispersed to build defensive positions around the town, hoping that the Japanese would have positions available before dark.
As a result, God was unfavorable and another accident occurred on the battlefield.
"Boom boom boom..."
Three artillery shells accurately hit the puppet troops who were digging trenches. A dozen puppet troops were blown over in the explosion. The remaining puppet troops either dispersed in a rush or lay on the ground holding their heads.
And this is just the beginning.
For the next three or four hours, the Eighth Route Army's artillerymen acted as if the shells were free of charge, and aimed exclusively at the puppet troops digging trenches.
The explosion caused them heavy casualties and made them howl like ghosts and wolves.
By nightfall, the blocking position was just dug in and basically unusable.
The commander of the company was so angry that he flew into a rage and killed several company commanders of the puppet military camp before he could calm down his anger.
During the day, there were planes watching over the battlefield, and the assault company only dared to hide in the dark with mortars to attack the Japanese troops.
The plane left the battlefield at dark, and the assault company had no worries at all.
Take the squad as a unit and launch an attack directly under the noses of the puppet troops.
The Japanese commander used the names of several puppet company commanders to force the remaining puppet troops to dig trenches faster, even if the Eighth Route Army's artillery shells hit them.
It was really effective at first.
In order not to be scapegoated, the remaining battalion and company commanders specially formed a team to watch their soldiers dig trenches, and shot anyone who escaped from the artillery fire.
Faced with the close-range death threat from their superiors, the puppet troops could only bite the bullet and continue digging trenches.
But the good times didn't last long.
"Da da da... bang bang bang..."
A burst of gunshots suddenly rang out around the town, and five or six puppet soldiers on the defensive position in the east of the town were instantly beaten into pieces. All of these puppet soldiers who were killed were all members of the supervising team just arranged by the battalion company commander.
Without the threat of the war team, the remaining puppet troops immediately returned to their true nature.
Faced with shells falling from the sky, he once again became a deserter.
This time, the deserters no longer had the same random calculations as before. They all acted as if they were discussing, and at the same time fled in the direction away from the town.
They've had enough.
Although I don’t know if the little devil can achieve the ultimate victory in the big sweep.
But if they continue to fight with the little devil, they will definitely die.
Even if he was not killed by the Eighth Route Army, he would still be killed by the Japanese and his troops.
Rather than doing this, it is better to fight.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was dark now, the Japanese were no longer around and fled the battlefield directly.
"Stop it quickly... Do you want to be deserters... If you are caught by the imperial army, you will be shot. Come back quickly... I will shoot anyone who doesn't come back..." The puppet company commander hid behind the bunker that had not yet been repaired and stamped his feet.
, scolded in anger and anxiety.
Seeing that the fleeing puppet soldiers didn't even listen to his greetings, I couldn't describe the anger I felt in words.
On impulse, he poked his head out from behind the bunker and raised the cannon, hoping to scare the monkeys and force the remaining puppet troops to retreat to their positions.
"boom……"
As soon as the company commander revealed his head from behind the bunker, his round head was blown open by a bullet, and he collapsed behind the bunker without even letting out a scream.
This scene further intensified the puppet troops' desire to flee the battlefield.
Otherwise, they will be the next ones to be killed. They will run faster and faster like frightened rabbits, shouting loudly: "The company commander is dead..."
"Everyone, run away..."
"If we don't escape with our lives, everyone will become cannon fodder for the Japanese..."
"The worst I can do is become a prisoner of the Eighth Route Army, and at least I can survive..."
"If you continue to stay here with the Japanese, you will definitely die...cannon..."
In less than half a minute, more than a hundred puppet troops gathered here dispersed and disappeared into the vast night.
The same thing happened everywhere around town.
When the Japanese realized that something was wrong, they sent troops from the town to reinforce the defensive positions. Except for the strength of the supervisory team and officers in the area, there was not a single living puppet soldier in sight.
"Bagya Road..." The captain held a knife with both hands and slashed at the ammunition box in front of him to vent his anger.
After stabbing him several times in a row, he calmed down. He stared at the map and gnashed his teeth and cursed: "How dare those puppet soldiers become deserters... Aren't they afraid that the imperial army will capture them and shoot them all?"
"No……"
"I will personally chop off their heads with a command knife..."
"The imperial army provided them with weapons and ammunition, fed them, and provided them with food and drink. It is simply unreasonable for them to repay the imperial army in this way."
"Chief of Staff, immediately assemble two reinforced squadrons to break out of the position and eliminate all the fleeing puppet troops. I will kill them all and make them realize the cost of betraying the imperial army. Otherwise, there will be a steady stream of imperial alliance troops in the future.
Betray the Imperial Army."
"Sir, calm down..." the chief of staff did not move, but persuaded with a worried look on his face.
"The Imperial Association Army was attacked by the Eighth Route Army's Lengqi and Lengpao jointly as deserters, which shows that there are a large number of Eighth Route Army ambushes hidden around us."
"Sending troops to chase and kill the fleeing Imperial Army is tantamount to taking the initiative to hit their guns and seek death."
"We don't have many troops to begin with..."
"If two more squadrons are lost, the number of troops stationed at the base that can continue to fight will be reduced to two brigades. It is too dangerous... Sir, please think again."
"Not only can we not hunt down the fleeing Eighth Route Army troops now, we must also send troops to continue repairing the defensive positions that the Imperial Alliance Army has not repaired."
"If the Eighth Route Army comes here tonight, we won't even have a decent defensive position."
