338 The worst thing is Lao Kong’s disguised slap in the face
The so-called "Jade Broken Determination" of the Japanese army soon became a fact.
Under the overwhelming superiority of the New Regiment's artillery offensive, the casualties of the Japanese and puppet troops continued to spread. The grenade launchers used to counterattack the New Regiment's soldiers, including the two mountain cannons, were all knocked out by the advancing soldiers. p>
At this time, the teams on the New Regiment's side, detouring from both sides, had basically completed the outflanking.
As for the Japanese and puppet troops who were besieged in the central area, like a point, it was already too late to retreat.
The only thing the Japanese and puppet troops can do is just like what the Japanese squadron leader said.
Stay where you are and wait for reinforcements from the direction of Taigu.
In fact, when the Japanese squadron leader issued the order to hold on, others were not clear about the terrible situation in front of him. Wasn't he still clear?
Defeat is at hand.
Knowing that they were bound to lose, the Japanese soldiers held on to the spirit of Bushido and attempted to unleash their final madness.
"Your Excellency, Squadron Leader, the situation at hand has been determined. If we continue to hold on, we will not be able to escape defeat."
"It is not the style of the imperial army to sit back and wait for death. I request to lead the charge. Even if I die, I will die on the way to fight in order to repay the emperor!"
A Japanese squad leader requested.
After hearing this, the Japanese squadron leader showed madness in his eyes, and he nodded heavily.
At this moment, there are only the last dozen or so Japs left, plus seventy or eighty puppet troops.
In order to launch the final charge, the Japanese squadron leader spoke up in an attempt to encourage these puppet troops to carry out the final battle.
"Soldiers of the Imperial Association Army, hold on to the guns in your hands and serve the Empire of Japan. The time has come!"
"If you die heroically in battle, the Empire of Japan will treat your families favorably and distribute your pensions to your family members one by one."
"Have courage and let us launch the final attack!"
……
The Japanese squadron leader finished his words with a sigh of relief.
At this moment, he felt like an inspiring speaker.
After a few words, these Imperial Alliance soldiers should be excited, right?
However, the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side only heard one sentence:
"Listen to the Japanese and puppet troops on the opposite side and surrender your guns without killing them. The Eighth Route Army will give preferential treatment to the prisoners!"
……
Wow——
The firearms were immediately lost on the floor.
Seeing a new group of Eighth Route Army soldiers encircling them from three directions, fearing that the bullets would injure themselves, the puppet soldiers even threw away their firearms and took the initiative to raise their hands above their heads in a gesture of surrender.
.
The dozen or so puppet soldiers who still insisted on holding their guns trembled when they saw the general trend and quickly threw away their last guns.
The Japanese squadron leader was confused.
"???"
Just this little bit of backbone?
"Assholes, pick up your guns, what are you doing? Do you still look like soldiers? Where is your backbone?" the Japanese adjutant couldn't help but curse.
...but the Eighth Route Army came over immediately.
You little devils are about to be destroyed before your eyes.
On weekdays, I pretend to be a coward, but how can there be puppet soldiers coddling these little devils at this moment?
A squad leader of the puppet army even cursed: "Fuck you, you little devil. If you have a backbone, how can I be a dog under your hands?"
"When you came here, this is how we surrendered to you from the national army. You are attacking us Chinese in front of us, but you scoundrels expect us to have backbone? What a joke."
This is the truth.
I'm afraid this puppet army squad leader is the only one who can describe spinelessness in such a refreshing and righteous way.
Some Japs can understand Chinese, but when the puppet squad leader scolded them like this, the Japs immediately became angry.
There was one Japanese who didn’t even bother to fight the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side.
First, he turned the muzzle of the gun and shot the puppet squad leader in the shoulder.
The squad leader of the puppet army who was shot wailed, and then he came to his senses. While his face was frightened and angry at the same time, he shouted: "Brothers, there are only a few of these stupid little devils left. Let's fight them."
Now, the Eighth Route Army is right in front of us, let’s atone for our sins!”
The phrase "make atonement for your sins" can be said to be in the hearts of the puppet soldiers.
The puppet squad leader said as he picked up the discarded firearm again.
The remaining puppet soldiers also quickly picked up their guns again, but this time, the guns were turned around and pointed at the Japanese.
Puppet Army No. 780, facing off against more than a dozen Japanese.
In addition, everyone is in close contact with each other.
The little devil, who is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of military strength, can't get any favors.
The new group of soldiers who launched a charge and encircled them were a little dumbfounded.
The platoon leader who led the charge even said happily: "What's going on? Looking at the momentum of the Japanese and puppet troops just now, I thought that the Japanese and puppet troops were going to launch a counterattack against us. This is good, there is an internal strife!"<
/p>
Thinking of this, the platoon leader was also a smart man and yelled: "Comrades, if the Chinese don't fight the Chinese, let me pick the Japanese to fight!"
As soon as these words came out, the puppet troops who were confronting the little Japanese were greatly inspired and they fought against the little Japanese even more fiercely.
Japanese squadron leader: "..."
The poor speaker spent a long time talking, but in the end, it was still not as good as the Eighth Route Army's words.
The battle lasted less than three minutes and was finally coming to an end.
Most of the remaining Japanese were beaten to death by the puppet soldiers.
Among them was the Japanese squadron leader, who was caught off guard and shot by the puppet company commander.
What a useless death.
He actually fell into the hands of the lackeys raised by the Japanese Empire.
I originally wanted to die on the road to fighting and become a decent soldier!
Then, after wiping out the Japanese, the puppet soldiers quickly threw away their firearms and surrendered to the Eighth Route Army.
At this point, the battle between the New Regiment and the Japanese and puppet troops in the Taigu area has completely ended.
Result:
The new regiment penetrated in reverse, detoured, and outflanked, killing 196 Japanese soldiers, 241 puppet soldiers, and capturing 68 puppet soldiers.
In addition, they received weapons and equipment from the fleeing national army and nearly half of the regiment.
It can be said that Xinyi Tuan won a great victory and made a lot of money.
………………
While Li Yunlong and Ding Wei were busy fighting the Japanese, they were also busy getting weapons from the defeated National Army and Jinsui Army.
The other side.
Independent group.
Kong Jie is sitting at the temporary headquarters, strategizing and controlling the entire regiment's operations.
This time, among the three regiments of the Iron Triangle, in terms of the number of troops put into combat, the Independent Regiment is the well-deserved first place.
After all, the independent regiment has the largest number of troops.
Among the three regiments of the Iron Triangle, the Independent Regiment has been developed by Kong Jie in the past six months and now has five battalions with a strength of about 2,500.
As for Ding Wei's new regiment, after Ding Wei accepted it, it has developed and now only has about 1,500 people.
Not to mention Li Yunlong's new second regiment, which has just been formed and has only more than a thousand people.
In addition, the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment, while taking the initiative to attack the Japanese and puppet troops, also need to ensure that the Japanese and puppet troops in their respective defense areas cannot support them in other directions.
Therefore, there are even fewer troops that can be freed to attack the Japanese and puppet troops.
This is why Li Yunlong and Ding Wei can personally lead a group of troops to fight on the front line.
The reason why Kong Jie can only control the overall situation from this frontline headquarters.
There is no way, the strength of the Independent Regiment is almost the sum of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment.
Kong Jie is equivalent to one regiment commander commanding two regiments.
You can no longer lead the charge and join in the fun.
As Zhao Gang once said:
"The leader should stay in the command position.
This is not fear of death, this is responsibility for the lives of all soldiers in the regiment."
In addition, Kong Jie believed in his battalion commander and instructors.
Even without him as the leader, they can still act independently.
Soon after the battle between Li Yunlong and Ding Wei started.
On the Independent Regiment's side, the five battalions' operations in five areas have also completely kicked off.
Thanks to the efforts of Wang An and others from the enemy's Ministry of Industry, the five battalions have their own set combat goals.
The news was successively transmitted to the temporary command through telephone, radio, and communication troops.
"Reporting to the head of the regiment, news came from the First Battalion that they have exchanged fire with the Japanese and puppet troops. There are only more than a hundred Japs, plus some puppet troops, who have been surrounded by the comrades of the First Battalion in the village."
"Reporting to the head of the regiment, the third, fourth, and fifth battalions received news one after another that they encountered a large number of defeated troops of the Jinsui Army and picked up many weapons discarded by the soldiers of the Jinsui Army along the way."
……
"Report to the regimental commander, the second battalion commander called and asked for you."
"Hey, Commander, I'm here to report the situation to you. Yes, the battle is over. It was very easy. The Japanese and puppet troops were only focused on chasing the fleeing Jinsui Army. We suddenly killed them.
The army was caught off guard and was wiped out by our second battalion."
"Weapons! There are many more, not only those seized from the Japanese and puppet troops, but also those discarded by the Jinsui Army on the road, including those coaxed from them after intercepting the Jinsui Army."
Kong Jie, who was listening to Shen Quan's report, couldn't help but said happily: "Coax? How to coax?"
Chen Quan's voice came from the receiver of the phone: "Commander, these Shanxi-Sui Army soldiers are so stupid that they are so easy to coax!
I don't know about other camps. I picked up the weapons discarded by the Jinsui Army and stopped the Jinsui Army. I told them that they could temporarily lend us the weapons for use, or we could help them keep them while they retreated.
It’s also convenient to get up.
I will send someone to deliver weapons to them later.
In the end, these cowards really believed it, and they all disarmed themselves and left their weapons and equipment to us."
Kong Jie asked: "How much equipment was seized from the Jinsui Army?"
Chen Quan replied: "Basically, our Second Battalion has received more than one battalion of equipment from the Jinsui Army."
Kong Jie thought for a while and said: "In this way, prepare one or two hundred guns from the captured Jinsui Army equipment that are damaged, or some guns that are simply unusable and have poor performance. You can complete the battle over there."
After it's over, I personally sent it to Chu Yunfei, the leader of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army."
"Ah?" Shen Quan was a little dumbfounded, "Captain, shall we send back the equipment we finally obtained?"
Kong Jie said: "You didn't say that. Do you want to return the equipment to others?"
"I just said it casually to coax people." Shen Quan said with a bitter smile.
Kong Jie laughed and scolded: "If I ask you to go, you will just go. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Think about it, if our three regiments move together this time, we will definitely take advantage of the national army and the Shanxi-Sui Army.
Let’s not talk about the National Army for the moment. This World War II area is the territory of the Jinsui Army.
We have seized someone's guns and ammunition, and we must have an explanation. We can't just go rogue and get over it.
Therefore, it is reasonable to send a batch of equipment over and explain the situation to Chu Yunfei."
"Chu Yunfei has a strong backstage and has many connections with the Shanxi-Sui Army commanders.
In addition, Chu Yunfei is considered a man in the Jinsui Army, and he still has the backbone of a soldier.
If this batch of equipment is sent to him and we don't open our mouths, someone will help us to stop the Jinsui Army's mouth.
In this way, if our Independent Regiment, New First Regiment, and New Second Regiment seize the weapons of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, they will have nothing to say."
Chen Quan said thoughtfully: "Captain, I seem to understand a little bit. Isn't your move called retreat in order to advance?"
Kong Jile said: "Your mind works very fast. Remember, you will personally deliver the weapons to Chu Yunfei. How you speak then depends on your art of speaking.
To grasp the key points, firstly, these are the weapons that were abandoned on the road by the soldiers of the Jinsui Army who were chased and routed by the Japanese and puppet troops.
Second, our Eighth Route Army received the news and rushed over to help, and by the way, they rescued a large number of Shanxi-Sui Army soldiers. They were all friendly forces. This favor will not bother Brother Chu.
……
Third, we have to trouble Brother Chu to explain the situation to Commander Yan. Our Eighth Route Army is taking the initiative to help friendly forces this time.
Equipment abandoned by friendly forces on their own initiative on the road, as well as equipment captured by the Japanese after losing the battle, were recaptured by our army.
A batch of them came back this time, and the rest, due to inconvenience, are temporarily stored in our Eighth Route Army.
If Commander Yan wants, he can personally come over and our Eighth Route Army headquarters will definitely return these weapons to your army.
Fourth, this is what I conveyed to Chu Yunfei privately, Brother Chu, Brother Chu, I have looked at the entire Shanxi-Sui Army, especially the response and response made by the Shanxi-Sui Army when they suddenly suffered a counterattack by the Japanese and puppet troops. Performance.
I have to say that Brother Chu is able to cultivate the pride of a soldier in such a team. He is indeed able to emerge from the mud without being stained, and walk through the water without being evil. This is extremely admirable!"
Kong Jie was talking on the phone, and Shen Quan on the other end was nodding in response, grabbing the key points with a pen and writing them down so that he could pass on the message according to Kong Jie's instructions.
"Okay, that's it, how about it, remember it?"
Chen Quan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Captain, I've written it all down."
After hanging up the phone, Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan pondered the meaning of Kong Jie's move.
He quickly understood and couldn't help but muttered:
"The regiment commander's move is too damaging. He is using these weapons to hit the Jinsui Army in the face in disguise!"
"The weapons were returned, but it has been repeatedly stated that the weapons were discarded by the defeated soldiers of your Jinsui Army who were routed and fled all the way. Some of the weapons were captured by the little devils and snatched back by our Eighth Route Army."< /p>
"This news will definitely not be contained. I'm afraid the Propaganda Department will vigorously publicize it."
"With the one or two hundred broken guns in front of us, take the initiative to send them to the Jinsui Army. Later, if the Jinsui Army really wants the equipment, they can only come forward, and they have to admit that it is their own team. We lost the battle and became a deserter, all because of the equipment that our Eighth Route Army just got back."
"Interesting, when the time comes, which of these Jinsui Army officers will have the nerve to come over and ask for weapons?"
"Maybe we have to thank our Eighth Route Army for saving many of their Shanxi-Sui Army troops."
"Since then, our three regiments have naturally taken advantage of the Jinsui Army. The key is that the Jinsui Army has nothing to say."
