All the more than 800 imperial troops were destroyed, and more than 300 reinforcements were killed. More importantly, a special operations team that cooperated with the operation was completely wiped out.
After receiving the news, Osaka Matsumoto rushed to the battlefield without stopping.
As the commander of the only experimental special forces in the country, Matsumoto has very strong connections in the country. Whether it is the identity of the other party's colonel commander or the strong background behind him, he is worthy of being deeply friends with many local army officers.
Therefore, one day has passed on the ambush battlefield in Wuxiang. More than a thousand Japanese corpses on the two battlefields have not been restrained, but are waiting for Colonel Matsumoto to personally inspect the battlefield.
"Captain, we have marked the bodies of all the special forces members! After statistics, 19 special operations members were killed by the enemy with one shot during the battle, and they were all made by the Empire's 6.5 mm rifle bullets. We judged that on the ambush battlefield,
The Eighth Route Army has snipers!"
"In addition, many imperial troops were killed by the Eighth Route Army with submachine guns. According to the intelligence we received, the 386th Brigade, the target of the imperial army's encirclement and suppression campaign, was basically not equipped with submachine guns! This makes me more sure that we have been
The Eighth Route Army special forces we were looking for have appeared!"
"Baggeya Road, plus the loss of a special operations team here, we have lost nearly three teams in the hands of this Eighth Route Army special forces. This is simply a shame for our special forces. We must find them and eliminate them.
!" Colonel Matsumoto shouted loudly with a gloomy face, like an angry lion.
After finishing speaking, Colonel Matsumoto directly turned his attention to the major general brigade commander next to him.
"General, you lost more than a thousand soldiers at once. I don't know how you plan to retaliate against the Eighth Route Army!"
The commander of the major general brigade did not put on airs in front of Matsumoto because of his high military rank. He thought about it and analyzed it.
"We suffered heavy losses, and Tubal Road suffered heavy casualties. According to intelligence, Tubal Road suffered at least one regiment casualty. This is our perfect opportunity to find them and eliminate them."
"According to intelligence, the headquarters of the 386th Brigade often operates in the Qinyuan area. I plan to dispatch three infantry brigades with Xinyuan County as the center, each with a regiment of the Imperial Association Army, to conduct raids on possible hiding places of the Eighth Route Army.
Search them like a net, find them, and then fight them decisively!"
Colonel Matsumoto immediately added: "This time I will bring a special operations squadron, and I will assign a special operations squad to each mopping up force."
"My people are very good at searching and chasing. With them in your dragnet search, you will get twice the result with half the effort! In addition, the Tubalu Special Forces have very strong combat effectiveness. If you encounter their field troops, you will definitely suffer a big loss. But with my
The special operations team is different. Even if we can't destroy the Eighth Route Army special forces, we can still hold them back until I bring reinforcements from other special forces to destroy them!"
In this way, a combat plan for the 386th Brigade and the Eighth Route Army Special Forces was completed under the conspiracy of two old Japanese.
The whole plan seems very simple and straightforward, with basically no conspiracy.
However, in the hands of the Japanese army with absolute strength, such a simple combat plan brought unprecedented pressure to Brigadier Chen!
Facing the Japanese army's dragnet search, Brigadier Chen led the brigade headquarters to move to three locations in just five days.
After finally moving to a small village in the mountains, I could have a good rest, but I heard news that a main camp outside the mountains was surrounded by Japanese troops!
"Are there any troops nearby for reinforcements? How many people are left in this battalion and how long can it last?" Brigadier Chen asked anxiously as he stared at Gongli Village on the map.
"A main force battalion plus a regiment headquarters and a guard company, a total of more than 900 people. Because it is the main force, there are plenty of weapons and ammunition!"
"The Japanese and puppet troops surrounding them already have three infantry squadrons of Japs and two battalions of the Imperial Association Army. In addition, there is another squadron of Japs and one battalion of the Imperial Association Army. If we rush there, we can catch them in two hours.
arrive!"
"Breaking through, why didn't the Japanese and puppet soldiers calm down and break out immediately?" Brigadier Chen asked with a frown!
"I rushed, but I couldn't rush out at all!" the chief of staff explained.
"It's daytime now, and the Japs also called in a plane. If the village wasn't big enough, more than 900 people could be blown up by bombing alone. But even so, more than 100 people were killed by the Japs' plane during the breakout.
!”
"In addition, there is a vast plain outside Gongli Village. There is no difference between rushing out now and dying. Commander Wang means to wait until dark before breaking out. As long as we leave the village, some people will definitely survive, so that the entire army will not be destroyed!"
Brigadier Chen opened his mouth but said nothing.
He stared at the map and hesitated for five minutes before analyzing: "More than 900 people were injured and more than 100 people were killed, and there were still 800 people left at the top of the sky. After dark, the number of Japanese and puppet troops surrounding them will increase to 2,000, at least 2,000.
There are two encirclements waiting for them to break through, and they must also send troops to the rear to block the Japanese and puppet troops who are chasing them. Otherwise, the breakout battle is likely to turn into a rout battle!"
"Chief of Staff, if we let them break out on their own, how many people will be able to break out in the end!"
"Only less than half of the troops can break out! This is still a conservative estimate. If you are very unlucky, you will be lucky to be able to get out even one company. After all, half of the people surrounding them are real Japs, and there are probably special Japs as well.
force!"
"If there are really Japanese special forces there, they will be lucky if they can break out even one company. If they are really targeted by the Japanese special forces, even if they break out of the encirclement, the flat terrain around Gongli Village will kill them."
As the captain of the special forces team, Wang Ping is not qualified to stand here.
However, after Brigadier Chen asked him to concurrently serve as the temporary deputy chief of staff of the 386th Brigade, Wang Ping became a member of the headquarters.
At first, Wang Ping could not find a chance to speak.
But when he heard Brigadier Chen mention the Japanese special forces, Wang Ping knew that his opportunity had come.
Because, the reason why the headquarters established a special operations brigade is to target the Japanese special forces.
Now that they are here, there is definitely no reason for the special forces to continue to be cowards.
He frowned and said: "Chief, Gongli Village is less than 20 kilometers away from here. The special force has a small number of people and a small target. Even if it goes out of the mountain, it will not attract the attention of the little devils. I mean, I will take the special force with me."
Go to Gongli Village, attack from inside and outside, and cover our people's breakout."
"As for the Japanese special forces that you are worried about, Chief, the special forces were formed to target the Japanese special forces. If the Japanese who surrounded Gongli Village really have special forces, then our special forces will find a way to kill them no matter how high the price is, and we will never let them
Massacre our breakout troops!"
Brigadier Chen, the political commissar, and the chief of staff all suddenly relaxed from their frowns just now.
Several people's eyes lit up at the same time, and then after looking at each other, they all nodded in acquiescence!
