168. The war begins (2)

In an alley, three Japanese soldiers panted and talked softly.

"What kind of army do you think this army is?"

"It's the troops of the Laiyang Independent Division! I saw their military uniforms! And, their guns!"

"Didn't it mean that Laiyang's troops have been defeated by our bacteria?"

"We didn't break through now. The order from the headquarters was for us to attack in five days! But we didn't expect that the independent division would actually attack us!"

"What should we do now? Do we want to transfer in?"

"We must move in! There are thousands of Chinese people! But what about us? The troops have been scattered, and there are heavy casualties. If we don't move in, we may never be able to return home."

"Home?" A Japanese soldier then looked at the night sky in confusion, "Yes, I really want to go home."

"Hey, Saburo, don't think about it. The most important thing now is to successfully transfer in. Moreover, we must leave safely, otherwise, no one will know that it is the independent division's troops who are attacking us. This shows that the headquarters

The plan has failed."

"Yoshi, for the sake of the Empire of Japan and His Majesty the Emperor, we must live."

"Hi!"

At this time, the sound of approaching footsteps came to their ears.

"Yalu, the Chinese are chasing us." The man known as Saburo stood up and said.

"This way!" Another Japanese soldier opened the door of a residential house and said to the other two people.

But before he entered the yard, he tripped over something.

"Ya Lu!"



"This way! There are ghosts in the alley!" A loud shout came, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps.

"Be careful. If you see any Japanese, use your gun to kill them!" came a voice.

"I know, camp!"



"Nani?" The Japanese soldiers who stumbled looked at the corpses on the ground, which turned out to be the corpses of the people they had massacred before. Because of the cold weather, they did not process them.

"It's the body of a Chinese man! Get up quickly! This family has a back door to their home."

"Um."

But soon, they heard approaching footsteps again.



"Platoon leader, this way!" A soldier looked at the open door and fired first. He just saw two black figures heading into the house.

"Hurry up in the back!"

But when they were about to enter the house, they also tripped over the corpses of people on the ground.

"What a bloody devil!" A roar rang out, because in the darkness, the eyes that were not closed were very bright. They were unwilling, filled with hatred, and filled with fear.

"Hurry up and chase!"



"It won't work anymore." Saburo stopped and gasped, "Now, we are already being pursued by soldiers in front and behind."

"Can not give up!"

"Hurry, they are there!" Soon, soldiers from the Independent Division discovered them and opened fire.

In the darkness, there should have been no accurate shot, but it hit Saburo in the stomach.

"Yamamoto, I can't do it anymore." Saburo said in pain, holding his stomach, "I really want to go home. I miss my mother and Keiko. It's great to be with her under the cherry blossom tree."

"Ya Lu!" Yamamoto also knew at this time that he could not escape. Hearing Saburo's words, he was also entangled in his heart, but he had to go back alive. Then he said in half-baked Chinese, "I surrender! Don't hit me!"

"Yamamoto-kun?" Another Japanese soldier said in surprise, "You?"

"I'm sorry, Yamashita-kun, I can't die yet. I still want to go home and see my family, especially my 2-year-old daughter." Yamamoto said painfully.

"Wakarima Xida." Yamashita said understandingly, "Then let's go together. In fact, I can't bear to leave my mother." Then he also put down his gun, raised his hand, and said loudly, "We surrender!"

However, their surrender was of no use. In the Independent Division, prisoners were never taken. Even if they had families, wives and children, they should be punished for standing on Chinese soil. What's more,

Almost all Japanese soldiers have done evil to the Chinese people.

In the panic of Yamamoto and Yamashita, two bullets entered their bodies. Slowly, they felt that the strength of their bodies was losing. Then, they fell unwillingly. Before they died, they were still thinking, we are not surrendering.

Is it gone? Why?



Half an hour later, the gunfire in Guojiadian Town ended.

After Gan Xinda asked the soldiers to confirm that all the Japs inside were dead, he said, "The Fifth Battalion and the Sixth Battalion immediately defend in the northwest direction of Guojiadian Town. The attack in Guojiadian Town will definitely be transmitted to the Laizhou Japs, so they

Support will be dispatched soon."

"yes!"

Gan Xinda's prediction was correct, but what he didn't expect was that the people who came to Guojiadian Town for support were just a large group.



January 2, 1939, early morning, Laizhou, Japanese Army Headquarters.

"Nani Guojiadian town was besieged by more than 6,000 enemies?" a Japanese military commander asked in disbelief.

"Hey, that's what the telegram said."

"Return the call immediately and inquire about the specific situation. At the same time, let several other captains come to see me immediately!"

"Hi!"



Pingdu, Japanese Army Headquarters

"You mean, Cui Zhaozhen and Malan Town have been lost?" A Japanese lieutenant colonel said angrily, "There is a brigade there, how could it be lost so quickly?"

"Hey! But the telegram is already dead."

"idiot!"



Qingdao, Japanese Army Headquarters

"Lingshan Town was attacked by the enemy? Is it suspected to be the headquarters of the Independent Division?" A Japanese major general frowned and looked at the telegram in his hand. "Go and send another report immediately. How is the current situation of the battle?"

"Hi!"



Yantai

"Baga, let the Nakata Regiment support Taocun Town immediately!" A Japanese major general was furious, "Let Takagawa Kazuki guard it for me! If he can't hold it, tell him not to come to see me again!"

"Hi!"



Qingdao

"Nani Xinkou Town was also attacked?"

"Baga, this is definitely an attack by the independent division! Didn't the headquarters say that the independent division's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced?"

"Immediately report to the North China Front Army Headquarters and inform them of the situation on the front line."

"Hi!"



Starting at 0:00 on January 2, three brigades and nine regiments of the independent division expanded to nearby villages and towns. Wherever there were Japanese soldiers, they would fight there.

Because of this, the Japanese headquarters did not know how to react.



Zhou Weiguo, looking at the rising war points, finally felt confident. However, these war points were not enough for him to spend.

The cholera epidemic continued. In one afternoon, the order was unable to be notified to Laixi and other households in Laiyang, and more and more patients gathered in the Laiyang area.

Fortunately, there are troops directly under the division to maintain order. At the same time, all excrement is handled centrally. It has been repeatedly emphasized that people must wash their hands when in contact with patients.

Although there are more and more patients, the trend is indeed a little slower.

Under such circumstances, as long as cholera is no longer contagious, Zhou Weiguo will have greater confidence in completing this mission and defeating the Japanese.
