"Captain Xiao, the Japanese have begun to attack!" Sun Jiawu, the guard company commander, squatted beside him and said with an eager look on his face!
"No rush!" Xiao Yuan replied calmly!
"Our mission is to raid Datong City. There are more than a hundred Japanese here and there is no need for us to take action. Our target is only their identities and military uniforms!"
"Pa bang bang..."
Gunfire soon rang out on the battlefield!
At first there were only rifles, then light machine guns joined the battle, and finally heavy machine guns!
The Japanese couldn't hold on any longer and started to retreat after leaving the corpses on the ground!
At this time, the serious expression on Xiao Yuan's face finally showed a slight fluctuation, and he decisively ordered: "It's our turn to dispatch. The troops will be surrounded by half and kill them. All the Japanese will be wiped out. No one can let them escape!"
On the road five kilometers away from Datong City, a group of Japanese soldiers were marching quickly on the road, aiming directly at Datong City, and the speed was very fast!
More than a thousand meters behind them, at least one battalion of the Eighth Route Army was scattered in the wasteland on both sides of the road, chasing closely behind them. Their bodies and hats were all covered with withered yellow thatch. Looking down from the air, they almost blended in with the surrounding wasteland!
Therefore, although there are Japanese planes cruising over the battlefield, they cannot threaten them!
The marching speed did not slow down because of the arrival of the plane, and they clung to the Japanese army in pursuit!
More than a hundred Japanese troops seemed to feel the crisis behind them, and their marching speed was getting faster and faster!
At this time, if you are more careful, you will find that these more than a hundred Japanese soldiers are obviously better than other Japanese soldiers, and the uniforms on many of them do not fit well, and there is a lot of blood stains on them. You can smell a strong smell from a distance.
The smell of blood!
They were not real Japanese troops, but pretended to be guards and commandos.
This is the second step of Li Hao's battle plan to attack Datong!
Pretend to be a Japanese retreating force and pass through the fortifications outside the city defended only by puppet troops as a Japanese!
If you have a chance to enter the city, go directly to Datong City. If you don't have a chance, go outside the city. Cooperate with the siege troops to attack from inside and outside. Take down the fortifications outside the city in the shortest time, and then concentrate your troops and firepower to attack Datong City!
"Captain, the Japanese and puppet troops' outer positions are ahead!" the commando running next to Xiao Yuan reported in Japanese!
After the commando team was established, learning Japanese became a very important part of their daily training!
After half a year, although there are still several commandos who cannot use Japanese proficiently, daily communication is no longer a problem!
Whether the troops can successfully pass through the forward position and deceive the Japanese and puppet troops defending the position, commandos who can speak Japanese are crucial!
"Slow down a little, and wait until the troops chasing us get closer before passing through the forward position!" Xiao Yuan ordered with a serious face!
"According to the investigation, the Japanese have only deployed one puppet platoon in this forward position!"
"We captured them directly, then took a few obedient prisoners and their platoon leaders, and went to the main enemy positions together!"
"There is a kid from the combat unit and a company of puppet soldiers there. If there are people who are familiar with the place following, it will be easy to trick them into it!"
"When the time comes, try to capture it without firing a single shot!"
At the forward position of the Japanese and puppet troops, more than thirty puppet troops were all lying in the trenches, rifles in hand, staring ahead with vigilance!
The superiors sent an order last night. The Eighth Route Army is likely to attack Datong City!
If you are guarding the forward position, if your superiors' judgment is true, you will definitely bear the brunt of the attack!
If you don't strengthen your vigilance and are caught off guard by the Eighth Route Army, you may not even have the chance to surrender and be taken prisoner, and you may be beaten directly into a sieve!
"Platoon leader, someone is coming in front. It seems to be the imperial army returning to support Datong!" A sharp-eyed soldier suddenly shouted!
The platoon leader glanced at the road and his expression became serious: "There are not only the Imperial Army, but also the Eighth Route Army!"
"There is at least one battalion of the Eighth Route Army behind the imperial army chasing them!"
"Brothers, prepare for battle and join the imperial army! If those imperial troops die in the forward positions, all of us will die and be buried with the Japanese in front!"
More than a hundred imperial troops are getting closer and closer, and the platoon leader can already clearly see their faces!
The formation was messy, and many people still had blood stains on their bodies, obviously signs of having just fought!
"Baga, get out of the way and stop the Eighth Route Army behind us!" A string of curses that were not completely understandable reached the platoon leader's ears!
The familiar Japanese made him more convinced of the identity of the opponent's imperial army!
Decisively ordered: "First class, move the roadblocks on the highway to cover the imperial army's entry into position!"
"Others are ready to fight. When the Eighth Route Army rushes in, we will shoot to block them and buy time for the imperial army to enter the position!"
Xiao Yuan led the commando team and the guard company into the guard position first!
Seeing that Xiao Yuan actually had the rank of captain, the platoon leader was shocked and hurried to meet him before the Eighth Route Army behind him came to kill him!
Although he is the leader of more than thirty subordinates, he is still inferior to the Imperial Alliance Army!
If you annoy the captain in front of you, it will be easier for the other party to kill you than to crush an ant!
He immediately complimented: "Hello, Taijun!"
"I wonder where Taijun belongs to. How many Eighth Route Army pursuing troops are behind him? Can our forward position be able to withstand it?"
More than thirty puppet troops still didn't take Xiao Yuan seriously!
Faced with such an opponent, he did not hesitate, took out his pistol and pointed it at the platoon leader's head!
"Taijun, have you misunderstood! I am from the Imperial Alliance Army, one of our own. How can I point a gun at my own people? Be careful of misfire!" The platoon leader quickly broke out in a large amount of cold sweat on his forehead. He said nervously and anxiously, fearing that he would be pointed out.
The pistol pointed at his own head went off!
At this time, a scene that stunned the platoon leader appeared!
Xiao Yuan, who carries the rank of captain on his shoulders, actually speaks Chinese to himself, and is more proficient than himself!
"Don't move and ask your men to put down their weapons. We are the Eighth Route Army, not the Japanese you say!"
The platoon leader is not very good at fighting, but he is very good at staying alive and looking at people's eyes!
The compliment on his face immediately turned into regret, and he changed into a different person. He shouted with pain on his face: "Commander of the Eighth Route Army, you came in too time!"
"The little devil is simply inhuman. Not only does he bully us, but he also doesn't regard our lives as life. He will kill us whenever he wants!"
"Brother, I have long wanted to lead dozens of my men to abandon the dark side and join the Eighth Route Army to fight against the Japanese!"
"Now that you are here, you must accept us no matter what!"
"I can acquit myself and perform meritorious service. There is a company of Imperial Alliance Army guarding the position behind. I know their company commander, and I can lead everyone into the position!"
Xiao Yuan was already happy!
I didn't expect to meet such a great person here!
After confirming that all the puppet soldiers were captured, he decisively put away his pistol and said, "You deserve meritorious services for your crimes. This is what you said yourself!"
"As long as you can help us seize the front position, I guarantee that no matter what you have done before, you will forget it!"
