Lin Quanquan saw Wang Huzi put away the shell gun. He secretly wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead. He knew that his life was temporarily saved.
He was quickly brought to Yang Ling by Wang Huzi. Looking at the strong and unsmiling officer of the National Revolutionary Army in front of him, Lin Quanquan tremblingly raised his hands and thanked him: "Thank you sir, thank you sir for not killing me."
Yang Ling was not interested in this boneless traitor. What he was interested in was what he said was the arsenal of the Japs.
If the Japanese arsenal can really be destroyed in one fell swoop, then the Japanese 6th Brigade, which is fighting at the front of Minshan, will not be able to fight for a long time due to lack of ammunition and will have no choice but to retreat. Then Yang Ling's goal will be achieved.
But looking at the fawning traitor in front of him, does he really know where the Japanese arsenal is?
The importance of arms is self-evident. You must know that they are military secrets and are strictly confidential.
"Do you know where the Japs' arsenal is?" Yang Ling observed Lin Quanquan, who did not dare to look at him, and asked calmly.
"I know, I know, it's Ruichang City."
Lin Quanquan knew that his life was in Yang Ling's hands. In order to survive at this moment, he dared not hide anything.
"Damn you, you are asking us to die!"
As soon as Lin Quanquan finished speaking, the second battalion commander Chen Ming cursed and knocked Lin Quanquan to the ground with a rifle butt. He said angrily: "Regiment deputy, Ruichang must be heavily guarded by Japanese soldiers. I looked at the dog."
The traitor is still determined to harm others, and he still wants to harm our brothers, so let’s just shoot him!"
Lin Quanquan was also frightened half to death. He just said a word and was hit by the butt of a rifle. Blood flowed down his forehead and covered his face.
"Sir, I have misunderstood you. I have absolutely no intention of letting you die. You wouldn't dare even if you gave me ten guts."
Lin Quanquan ignored the pain and hurriedly opened his mouth to explain, fearing that if he was too slow to explain, he would be shot.
"The Japs' arsenal is in Ruichang City, but most of the Japs have moved to Minshan. Only half a squadron and one security camp remain in the city..."
After hearing Lin Quanquan's hurried explanation, Second Battalion Commander Chen Ming felt a little anxious.
"Is it true that only half a squadron of Japanese soldiers and a security battalion are left behind?"
"It's absolutely true. The security camp was temporarily reorganized by the security group that was broken up by Ruichang. It has nothing to do with the Japanese." Lin Quanquan did not have the slightest scruples in order to survive.
Yang Ling had been observing Lin Quanquan's expression when he spoke. He was telling the truth or lies. His micro-expressions could determine the authenticity. Yang Ling was an expert in this field and judged that what he said should be accurate.
"Do you know the consequences of deceiving us?" Yang Ling laughed ferociously: "You know the three swords and six eyes, right?"
Seeing Yang Ling's cold smile, Lin Quanquan shuddered all over and hurriedly swore: "Sir, how dare I lie to you? If I did, I would die badly."
"Huzi, take him down first." Seeing Lin Quanquan's trembling look, Yang Ling waved to Wang Huzi to take him down.
After Wang Huzi took Lin Quanquan down, the second battalion commander Chen Ming saw Yang Ling's thoughtful expression and asked tentatively: "Regiment deputy, you don't want to attract Ruichang's attention, do you?"
Chen Ming was also shocked by his idea. With only 500 of them going to fight the Japanese in Ruichang, the important rear town?
Yang Ling raised his head and said solemnly: "The Japs don't have many troops left in Ruichang, and their supplies and weapons are piled up in Ruichang. I think we can give it a try."
"Regiment deputy, you have to think twice before you act. Our mission this time is to fight against the Japanese's transport troops. We have no plan to fight against Ruichang. If we fail, the consequences will be..."
Chen Ming still had half a sentence to say, but Yang Ling also understood.
They are now the National Revolutionary Army, not just those stragglers. All their actions must be based on the orders of their superiors. Otherwise, they will act without authorization. At least they will be held accountable, and at worst, they will go to a military court. The consequences will be very serious.
"Plans are made by people, so we can make plans now."
Yang Ling didn't have as many restrictive worries as Chen Ming in his head. For him, he could do anything that could win the battle, defeat the Japanese, or be beneficial to the entire battlefield.
"You don't have to worry, I'll be worried about whatever happens." Looking at Chen Ming's worried look, Yang Ling patted his shoulder in relief.
In fact, Chen Ming heard that the Japanese defense force in Ruichang was weak, and he was tempted to attack. After all, attacking the Japanese logistics base would be a powerful support for the frontal battlefield of Minshan.
But when he thought about the charge of acting without authorization, he backed down in fear. If the intelligence was wrong and the battle was lost, it would not be a demotion, but a military court. He did not want to spend his next life in prison.
But when he saw Yang Ling looking like he had to fight, Chen Ming couldn't feel relieved.
"Vice-General, why don't we ask the brigade for instructions first and then take action?"
Hearing Chen Ming's words, Yang Ling also burst into laughter. Fighting opportunities are fleeting. If he really waits to go back and consult the brigade headquarters before going back to attack Ruichang, I'm afraid the day lily will be cold.
This is why in ancient times, when communication methods were backward, there was a so-called general who would not accept the orders of the foreign emperor.
Seeing Chen Ming's worried look, Yang Ling didn't bother to persuade or explain, but he had to go to Ruichang because he saw the benefits of the huge risk and the risk was worth taking.
"Battle Commander Chen, in this case, you take the injured brothers back to me along the original route, and take the brothers to Ruichang." Yang Ling made the decision.
"This..." Second Battalion Commander Chen Ming was still hesitating.
Yang Ling didn't want to waste time: "I am the highest officer here now, please execute the order."
"Yes!" Chen Ming struggled inwardly and nodded in agreement: "Regiment deputy, then you must be careful when you go and don't take any risks."
"Okay, I understand, I won't make fun of my brothers' lives."
Although they were more than 500 brothers who were preparing to ambush the Japs as a supply force, they still suffered more than 100 casualties.
After Chen Ming and Yang Ling said goodbye, the brothers who were injured and killed took some trophies with them, got into the woods, and returned to the direction of Minshan along the original road.
Yang Ling and his other four hundred brothers burned the ammunition and supplies piled on the mountain road, then detained the traitor Lin Quanquan and headed straight for Ruichang.
Bullets and grenades exploded on the mountain road, rumbling and trembling, and thick smoke was billowing from the burning. The materials and ammunition that could not be taken away were burned by Yang Ling and the others.
When Yang Ling and others ambushed the Japanese transport troops, the Japanese 6th Brigade troops in the direction of Minshan realized that something was wrong.
Because he had just received the telegram that the ammunition and supplies transported by the baggage troops were almost arriving at Minshan.
Although the brigade commander, Masao Maruyama, did not know who attacked the transport team, he knew very well that once the logistics supplies and ammunition were attacked, the subsequent battle would become extremely difficult. It would be unsustainable to rely solely on airdrops to provide a drop in the bucket.
of.
Therefore, Captain Ono Ichiro was immediately sent to lead three squadrons of nearly 600 soldiers with strong combat effectiveness to quickly reinforce in the direction of the firefight, hoping to pick up the supply troops.
Ono Ichiro fought for several days and nights on the main battlefield of Minshan. He was defeated in disgrace and his infantry brigade suffered heavy losses.
Although he was a little dissatisfied with the brigade commander Maruyama Masao for asking him, a dignified main force captain, to lead people to pick up the baggage troops, he still set off in a hurry.
He has been holding back some evil fire in his heart these days, just in time to attack those blind guerrillas.
However, he hurriedly and slowly was still a step too late. When he led his troops to the mountain road where the baggage troops were attacked, except for the smoke and burning materials and corpses everywhere, there was not a single living person left.
Seeing the dead and wounded corpses and the burned materials and ammunition, Ono Ichiro could no longer hold back and roared angrily.
