Although I felt very sad for my previous efforts, I still forced a smile and said in admiration: "You Eighth Route Army are so cunning. You actually planned it from the beginning and prepared such a big trap for the Japanese. Even I, the old man, were kept in the dark!"
The commander-in-chief replied with a smile on his face: "As long as you can kill the Japanese, there is no harm in being cunning!"
"We judge that the Japs who attacked the military parade this time must be all the remaining forces of the Japanese army in southwestern Shanxi. Killing them will be very beneficial to both us and the Shanxi-Sui Army, don't you think so, Commander Yan?"
"Not bad!" Commander Yan felt very uncomfortable, but he still managed to answer with a smile.
"If we can really kill them and bring peace to the people in southwestern Shanxi, I, the commander of the World War II zone, will definitely reward you heavily!"
The commander-in-chief seized the opportunity and said: "Forget about heavy rewards, our Eighth Route Army has received many awards in recent years. If Commander Yan really wants to thank our Eighth Route Army, then compensate us for some military expenses, even if it is tens of thousands of dollars."
also!"
There were so many people staring at him, many of whom were lieutenant generals or major generals leading the troops in various theaters and Chongqing. If he continued to live without money, there would be no excuse for him.
Although he was very reluctant in his heart, Commander Yan still swallowed the consequences of losing his wife and losing troops, and replied with a smile: "Okay, then I will reward you with 20,000 yuan~ The prerequisite is that you kill the remaining Japanese and puppet troops in southwestern Shanxi."
Snobbery and intelligence power!”
"Then on behalf of the Eighth Route Army, I would like to thank Commander Yan in advance!" the commander-in-chief replied immediately.
In the woods five kilometers away from the parade ground in Shangyu Town, the Japanese commander in charge of the entire operation was walking around the edge of the woods with an anxious look on his face, waiting for news.
Finally, a subordinate he was very familiar with appeared in his sight, and he rushed towards it.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army's military parade is about to begin! The troop layout of the peripheral security forces is the same as yesterday, there is no change!"
"Just now, more than ten vehicles made two trips back and forth between the New Regiment Headquarters and the parade ground. The entire transportation was heavily guarded. These vehicles must have been transporting senior commanders of the Eighth Route Army and those who came to participate in the military parade.
Guest’s!”
"Now all these people have entered the parade ground!"
"All the troops participating in the military parade have entered the parade ground. In ten minutes, the military parade will begin!"
"Yo Xi!" The tense nerves on the commander's face suddenly relaxed.
A pair of eyes became hot, and then he stared at several eager subordinates and ordered: "Warriors, the time has come to make meritorious service to the Empire of Japan!"
"I order all troops to launch an assault from the northeast corner of the parade ground, where the Eighth Route Army's defense force is the weakest, with only one reinforced platoon!"
"The troops rushed into the parade ground with lightning speed. The first and second commandos directly attacked the rostrum. No matter who they were, kill them all!"
"The other three commandos are divided into three groups to attack the Eighth Route Army troops participating in the military parade!"
"They don't have live ammunition. As long as we seize the opportunity, we can definitely hit them hard!"
"Even annihilating them all is possible."
"So each commando team must move forward courageously and complete the mission at all costs."
"Finally it's time to retreat. The latest reinforcements from the Eighth Route Army will arrive on the battlefield in half an hour."
"So our raid starts with the sound of gunfire, and the battle must be over within twenty minutes before we break out and retreat!"
Dozens of scouts from the army took the lead and led more than 800 people to attack Xiangyu Town.
Commander Da Zuo, who was mixed in the middle of the team, gradually became calmer after the initial excitement.
At this time, he was less than two kilometers away from the parade ground, but there was no report from the vanguard of the enemy's situation, which made him very confused.
"Shouldn't you? For such an important matter, it's impossible for the Eighth Route Army not to set up security posts. Could it be that all their security posts sneaked to the parade ground to watch the parade!" Commander Major frowned and said to himself.
"Impossible. The Eighth Route Army has always been known for its strict military discipline. It is even stricter than the Imperial Army in observing discipline. It is absolutely impossible for the guard post to leave its post without permission!" As soon as the idea just appeared, Commander Colonel himself rejected it. Already.
Then his frown deepened, and a very bold idea came to his mind.
"Is this a conspiracy..."
"Hello, Chief!"
At this moment, a faint cry of killing suddenly came from the military parade not far away.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army's military parade has begun, and they must be reviewing the troops being reviewed now!" the deputy next to him reminded, interrupting the colonel's thoughts.
Colonel shook his head, shook off all the messy thoughts and said: "It doesn't matter so much, as long as we can kill the senior commanders of the Eighth Route Army and the guests attending the military parade, it doesn't matter even if it's a trap!"
"Pass my order, the troops continue to speed up and raid the parade ground!"
On the rostrum of the military parade ground, First Battalion Commander Xiong Changhe stood on it, holding a telescope and staring at the little Japanese who had appeared not far away.
"Battal Commander, the Japanese are here. There are more than 800 people in total. They are also equipped with mortars and heavy machine guns. They have very strong firepower!"
"Order the garrison to shout the slogan a few more times and then evacuate to the back of the position and help us ambush the little Japs!" Xiong Changhe began to give the order with a face full of heat!
"The outer security troops will retreat to the parade ground after appropriate resistance and bring the Japanese into the parade!"
"The three heavy machine gun companies placed on the rostrum are ready for battle and will fire immediately after receiving my order!"
"I want to make the heavy weapons in the hands of the Japanese useless!"
"Second Company, set off immediately, get behind the Japanese and block their retreat!"
"I want to kill all these little devils and traitorous spies today!"
"Da da da~"
The gunfire finally rang out, and the Japanese commander's tense nerves finally relaxed.
As long as there is an exchange of fire, it means that the opponent is not prepared. This is the idea of the Japanese commander.
"Sir, the forward troops encountered the Eighth Route Army's peripheral security troops!" A subordinate rushed over and reported.
"Let them concentrate their firepower and rush over, all the way to the parade ground, at all costs, time is limited, we can't stay here for too long!" Colonel ordered with his eyes shining.
Soon he heard the gunshots getting closer and closer, and they were getting farther and farther away from him.
"Sir, the troops have already entered!" The subordinate who had just left rushed over again, with an excited look on his face and reported in rough clothes.
"Order, all commandos launch an attack and rush to the parade ground!" The colonel's face became fanatical, as if victory was within grasp, he ordered decisively.
