Chapter 326 Huang Yu: Not good, the devil will kill the chicken with a bull's knife (two chapters in
Director Wang immediately showed an expression of disbelief. He looked at Captain Zhou with a suspicious look on his face and said, "The weapons used by those little devils are really valuable. Even if they are damaged by bombs, there are still people who want them..."
"And the nameplates and epaulettes you mentioned are the things of dead people. How could anyone want them? You must be deceiving me!"
Captain Zhou explained firmly: "Director Wang, for those of us regiment commanders and division brigade commanders who want to do battle with our superiors, things from the dead are much more valuable than things from the living!"
"Take the nameplates and epaulettes of little Japs as an example. A Japs only have one set. Only when they are killed by us and the body is not snatched away by other Japs can we have a chance to get their nameplates and epaulettes..."
"A nameplate means that we killed a little Japanese. This is a real military achievement, and no one can deny it!"
"If the nameplate we buy is of an organic type, even if there is only one infantry squad, it means that we have eliminated a full infantry squad of Japanese. This is a great achievement, and the division commanders in the theater will also rush for it!"
Director Wang quickly figured out what was going on inside, and said with a thoughtful look on his face: "I understand..."
"Using the ocean to purchase the Japs nameplates and blown-up weapons and ammunition from the Eighth Route Army seems to be a big loss for those people, but this is not the case."
"They can take the nameplates and weapons they bought back as trophies and send them to the war zone to report their merits. The war zone will not only reward them, replenish the weapons and ammunition they lost on the battlefield, reward them with a large sum of money, and maybe even lead the captain to get promoted!"
"After this series of combined punches, their harvest is much more than the ocean that bought the trophies..."
“No matter how you analyze it, it’s a good deal with a sure profit and no loss!”
"I will do as you say, as long as I can sell those ammunition to the Eighth Route Army, the ocean, the gold, the nameplate representing the identity of the little devil, the epaulettes, the damaged weapons...we all want it!"
"Rumble..."
A series of five explosions suddenly sounded at the front of the Japanese mopping up troops in the middle road.
Rolling black smoke rose from the ground, and around each puff of black smoke were three or four puppet troops. Half of the puppet troops fell to the ground and stopped moving, and half of the puppet troops fell to the ground and screamed...
This is Huang Yu's greeting gift to the Japanese army's middle route mopping up troops...
Wing Commander Colonel Ando was not angry.
Before the attack, he thought of landmines and prepared his troops for bombings.
For this reason, the forward troops were replaced by a company of the Imperial Association Army. Even if there were landmines on the march, the ones that would be exploded would be the Imperial Association Army...
As soon as the explosion went off, he gave the order calmly: "The engineering team will go to the front to clear mines immediately... hurry up!"
"The order given to us by the military is to march at least twenty kilometers a day... It sounds very short, but if we don't hurry up and are blocked by landmines, we still won't be able to finish the journey..."
More than two dozen Japanese engineers quickly crossed the vanguard troops and started clearing mines with mine detectors on their backs...
The speed was very slow, and it took only ten minutes to advance 40 to 50 meters.
To the regret of the engineering team, they swept all the way but couldn't find a single mine.
The squad leader immediately went to Colonel Ando and expressed his judgment: "Co-captain..."
"There are no mines fifty meters in front of the troops. I suspect that the Eighth Route Army only deployed a minefield here to scare us and slow down our march!"
"This humble post suggests that the troops give up mine clearance...and move on!"
Colonel Ando also had this idea.
The troops were marching too slowly while clearing mines...it only took ten minutes to advance fifty meters...
If he keeps walking at this speed, he will not be able to advance even five kilometers in a day. Obviously, he will not be able to complete the task assigned to him by the military department.
Abandoning mine clearance and allowing the troops to advance directly, although there is a possibility of encountering landmines again, the people who were killed and injured were all puppet troops, and Colonel Ando did not feel sad at all.
In his eyes, the puppet troops are used as cannon fodder, and it doesn't matter no matter how many people die.
In addition, he had another bold idea.
There is a village three kilometers ahead. The mopping up troops march quickly to kill it. The Chinese in the village will definitely not have time to move!
You can take the opportunity to capture some people, release them hostage, and help explore the road.
In order to avoid accidentally injuring its own people, the Eighth Route Army had no choice but to abandon the use of landmines, and the mopping up troops lost one threat.
In order to achieve this goal, I must give up minesweeping and move forward quickly...
Otherwise, by the time the troops kill them, it will be dark and the people in the village will have disappeared long ago.
Although it is possible to encounter landmines again if you stop clearing mines, as long as the troops capture some civilians as hostages and let the Eighth Route Army take advantage of them, you can solve this problem once and for all!
Immediately ordered: "The troops continue to advance, with the Imperial Association Army taking the lead, and other troops following behind!"
"The Imperial Army soldiers who were killed by landmines were buried on the spot...the wounded were sent to the large baggage vehicles at the back, and the marching speed of the troops must not be slowed down!"
After no longer clearing mines, the Japanese and puppet troops suddenly accelerated their march, advancing one kilometer in just ten minutes.
The road conditions seemed to be exactly as the engineer squadron leader had judged.
Except for the series of minefields encountered at the beginning, there was no second minefield encountered on the road...
As they walked, the vigilance of the eighty or so puppet troops in the van gradually dropped. The rifles they held in their hands seemed more like a show. In order to avoid misfire, the safety was turned off!
"Rumble..."
Just when everyone thought the mines would not appear again, the familiar sound of explosions reached Colonel Ando's ears again, and five balls of billowing black smoke rose from the ground where the forward troops were.
"idiot……"
Colonel Ando was a little upset at first, but he quickly calmed down and turned back to order: "The engineer team continues to clear mines in front... go faster..."
"We must find out the pattern of the Eighth Route Army's laying of landmines!"
The fast-moving team was once again stopped for mine clearance.
This time the engineering team swept forward a full hundred meters and still couldn't find a single mine.
Colonel Ando was helpless. He could not keep the troops clearing mines, otherwise they would not be able to complete the important task of advancing fifteen kilometers in one day.
We can only order the engineers to give up mine clearing. The troops urgently need to move forward and rush to the village in front to capture the hostages as soon as possible...
"Rumble..."
Ten minutes later, a string of mine explosions reached Colonel Ando's ears again.
The troops were attacked by landmines again and again. Every time they sent engineers to clear mines, they were in vain. Even Colonel Ando's good temper was worn away.
He clenched his fists and began to curse.
"BaGeYaLu... the enemy has gone too far. They are simply treating us like monkeys..."
"Three minefields are one kilometer apart from each other... We can sweep mines up to 100 meters at a time. Not only can we not find the mines, but we also waste a lot of time..."
"But no matter how cunning the prey is, it cannot escape the eyes of the hunter..."
"Now that we have found the pattern of the Eighth Route Army laying landmines, we will definitely not be fooled again..."
"Order the forward troops to continue moving forward... stop after marching 900 meters, and the engineers will go forward to clear the mines. We must find the next minefield buried by the Eighth Route Army in front of us!"
"The commander of the unit is wise... I am humble enough to give orders now!"
This time the mopping up troops only stopped for two minutes before moving on.
Colonel Ando was secretly proud, feeling that he had figured out the rules of how the Eighth Route Army laid mines.
As a result, just three minutes after walking, the explosion sound of "boom boom..." reached Colonel Ando's ears again, and he was so angry that he opened his mouth to curse again...
"Bage Ya Road, the Eighth Route Army does not respect martial ethics... Shouldn't their next minefield be one kilometer away? Why are they buried here... It's too much!"
The adjutant wanted to reply: "Both sides are life-and-death rivals. The only way to win is to defeat your opponent. Only a ghost can tell you about martial ethics!"
But after thinking about it, I forgot about it.
Colonel Ando’s military command ability is indeed very strong, but his mind is extremely small!
Now that I am angry, if I irritate him with just one word, it would be a bit of a loss.
Seeing that no one around him answered, and all his subordinates lowered their heads, and it was of no use at all, Colonel Ando became even more angry. His face sank and he began to give orders: "The troops continue to move forward..."
"The front is the Lijia Village I was talking about...the troops marched quickly to kill them, arrest all the people inside, and let the people help us explore the road and force the Eighth Route Army to stop using landmines..."
"Rumble..."
Five minutes after the troops advanced, the sound of mine explosions sounded again.
Colonel Ando acted as if he had not heard anything and forcefully demanded that the forward troops continue to advance.
Five minutes later, the mopping up troops finally reached the entrance of Lijia Village.
A company of Imperial Army troops and an infantry squad of Japanese soldiers rushed into the village screaming.
Especially the puppet troops, every one of them looked like they were drunk, rushing forward with their red eyes wide open.
It had only been an hour since they entered the base of the Independence Regiment. They had already been attacked by four landmines, causing direct losses of more than 70 people. More than 30 people were killed alone...
The heavy losses made each of them feel angry.
The Japanese are their masters, and killing them is like killing a chicken. No matter how angry you are, you don't dare to take it out on them.
The landmines were planted by the Eighth Route Army, which should be the main culprit that caused heavy casualties to the troops. The puppet army should vent their anger to the Eighth Route Army.
But the Eighth Route Army was so elusive that they couldn't find it even if they tried to look for it.
To put it bluntly, even if the Eighth Route Army stood in front of them, they might not have the courage to fight with the Eighth Route Army...
The common people are unarmed and pose no threat, so they are undoubtedly the best targets for venting anger.
In addition, there is a lot of gray income from entering the village to arrest people, so they can take advantage of the opportunity... This makes the puppet army more motivated than the Japanese to enter the village.
"Boom...boom...boom..."
Dreams are beautiful, but reality is very cruel...
What greeted these Japanese and puppet troops were not the helpless common people, but the stringed landmines and booby traps!
Colonel Ando's heart skipped a beat, his face darkened at the same time, and he raised his eyebrows and began to curse: "Bagya Road, we have been fooled again!"
"Immediately arrange two infantry squadrons to outflank Lijia Village..."
"Whenever there are explosions in the village, there are enemies. We must wipe them all out!"
"Deploy another company of the Imperial Army and a small group of Imperial Army to attack the village... find out how many enemies are inside as soon as possible!"
Before the two outflanking squadrons had time to set off, they saw a commander, Cao, running towards Colonel Ando in a hurry. Before he could stand still, he hurriedly reported.
"Sir, there are no Chinese in the village, there are landmines everywhere..."
"The troops entering the village suffered heavy losses!"
"Landmines..." Colonel Ando was confused, but he reacted very quickly and immediately changed his previous order: "The follow-up troops no longer need to enter the village, and the outflanking troops also stopped..."
"The troops who entered the village immediately withdrew and prepared to set fire to the village..."
Compared with the high spirits of the troops who entered the village and withdrew after five minutes. Compared with the high spirits when they followed the village, the Japanese and puppet troops during the retreat were like a group of bereaved dogs. Some were carrying the wounded and others were carrying the corpses.
There were more than 150 Japanese and puppet troops, and no less than 40 of them were killed... Colonel Ando felt like crying without tears.
At the first blocking position two kilometers away, Wang Minghua was reporting the results to Huang Yu with a smile on his face.
Among the company commanders in the assault battalion, he is the one who loves to use his brain the most and is the best at fighting guerrilla warfare.
When fighting the Japanese, he kept thinking one little thing after another. Sometimes Huang Yu felt ashamed.
"Battal Commander... The three serial mines in front... I placed one every one kilometer. No matter how stupid the Japanese are, they can't sweep mines for one kilometer... But after scanning dozens or hundreds of meters and finding nothing, they gave up... and mistakenly thought that
I found my mine laying pattern by myself and took it for granted that the fourth serial mine was also one kilometer away."
"I'm not as good as the little devil. I placed the fourth mine four hundred meters away and the fifth mine five hundred meters away."
"Let the devils have both rules to follow and no rules to follow, and finally detonated all five serial mines!"
"Including the Japanese and puppet troops killed in Lijiacun, the enemy suffered direct losses of more than a hundred people, but there were not many Japs. The total number of Japs killed and wounded was less than ten!"
Huang Yu said with satisfaction: "The puppet army is also the enemy..."
"If the mine warfare along the way kills all the puppet troops... the Japanese will attack our blocking position and there will be no cannon fodder. They will be the ones who die then. We just let them live a little longer... It won't be a problem!"
"Your fighting style is very good... From now on, the third company will be responsible for using landmines to consume the Japanese and puppet troops!"
"The highway, the villages along it...if you want, everywhere can be turned into a minefield for killing Japanese!"
"Batalion Commander, the little Japs are coming towards us, and there's only one kilometer left to go!" the reconnaissance platoon leader hurried to Huang Yu to report.
"Order the troops to prepare for battle..." Huang Yu immediately revealed his head from the trench, raised his binoculars and looked at the road.
Five minutes later, a company of puppet troops came into Huang Yu's sight...
They stopped when there were still 300 meters left in the blocking position, and the main force of the mopping up force came into Huang Yu's field of vision...
What makes Huang Yu regretful is that this group of puppet troops did not launch a tentative attack when they encountered a blocking position to find out the strength of their opponent like the puppet troops he encountered before.
Instead, they quickly deployed and stood ready in front of the blocking position...
After another five minutes, a group of Japanese soldiers rushed into the puppet army's security position.
They did not launch an attack. After replacing the puppet troops, they began to set up mortars, heavy machine guns, field artillery in the middle of the team, large-caliber mountain artillery, large-caliber mortars... and several of them were brought over!
Huang Yu immediately exclaimed: "No, the devil wants to kill the chicken with a knife..."
"The fire squad of the company, first platoon, and second platoon, immediately enter the artillery hole... A maximum of half a squad of troops can be hidden in one anti-artillery hole... Other troops will evacuate the position immediately, and move faster... The little devil is setting up the artillery, there is still time
