"Who is it? Stop immediately and don't get close, otherwise we will shoot!" Outside the stronghold, a puppet army squad leader on duty shouted at the top of his lungs!
The puppet platoon leader walking next to Xiao Yuan, in order to survive, entered the scene quickly and immediately shouted: "You are blind, didn't you see that the imperial army is back!"
"The imperial army at the Jiuyang Town stronghold was ordered to return to Datong City to aid. They broke out directly from the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army, and there were pursuers from the Eighth Route Army behind them!"
"Why don't you hurry up and tell your company commander to come out to meet the imperial army and block the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army!"
"By the way, I am platoon leader Li Shanhu from the security position in front. Your company commander Zhou knows me!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Before he finished speaking, several gunshots were heard from the security position a few hundred meters away!
Xiao Yuan also took action at this time, and cursed at the top of his lungs: "Bagh Yalu, hurry up and inform your company commander. If the Eighth Route Army pursues us, everyone will die!"
The familiar Japanese completely broke the puppet squad leader's worries!
Seeing that the imperial soldier with the rank of captain opposite had already grabbed his pistol and looked like he wanted to kill someone to vent his anger, he quickly ran into the turret behind him!
In less than half a minute, the puppet company commander and the Japanese commander Cao who was guarding here rushed over with their men!
"Hello, Captain Zhou, these are the imperial troops from the Jiuyang Town stronghold, and we have been ordered to return to Datong City to aid! The Eighth Route Army's pursuers are right behind and have already reached the front guard position!" The platoon leader shouted immediately when he saw an acquaintance!
This company commander really knew Li Shanhu, so he lost all precautions and rushed all the way to Xiao Yuan!
"Hello Taijun, our company commander of the Imperial Association Army who is defending the artillery towers, please rest assured Taijun, we have artillery towers and we will definitely be able to block the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army!"
"Hello, sir!"
The Japanese commander Cao, who was walking next to the puppet company commander, saw the rank of captain on Xiao Yuan's shoulder and quickly saluted!
There are tens of thousands of troops stationed in Datong City, and he is only the lowest-ranked Commander Cao. He only knows the squad leader and squad leader of his squadron at most!
Like the garrison stationed on the blockade outside the city, even if your squadron leader comes over, you may not recognize them!
"Yo Xi! Everyone enter the turret immediately!" Xiao Yuan answered directly in Japanese with a very satisfied expression!
But soon a murderous intent flashed across his face!
The conversation changed and he cursed: "The Eighth Route Army behind us is so abominable. We chased them for dozens of kilometers. At least one of the subordinates of the team died in their hands! I decided to fight back here and hit them hard before returning to Datong City!"
"
The Japanese leader Cao subconsciously felt that it was inappropriate!
The position here is limited, and it is enough to guard it by yourself! Now that so many people suddenly come in, it will be detrimental to the entire defense!
Besides, the other party did not order to take over the position here!
If something unexpected happens and the position is lost, the squadron leader in front of you can pat your butt and leave. In the end, you will definitely be responsible!
Thinking of this, Chief Cao quickly opened his mouth to refuse!
But before the words came out of his mouth, he swallowed them back as soon as they reached his mouth!
Xiao Yuan looked at him with a pair of eyes that could almost spit fire, his face was red and full of anger!
If you refuse at this time, you will definitely be greeted with several loud slaps in the face!
Not wanting to be beaten, Chief Cao quickly agreed: "Please rest assured, sir, we will definitely cooperate fully!"
"There is the turret ahead, let's go first to the turret!"
"All the subordinates led by me are staying in the gun tower. I will order them to come out now, give the gun tower to the commander, and go directly to the position to defend!"
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army pursuers have broken through the forward warning position and are coming towards us!"
Xiao Yuan frowned and ordered directly in Japanese!
"The troops will enter the position immediately and prepare to face the Eighth Route Army's pursuing troops!"
Xiao Yuan easily entered the artillery tower under the leadership of the puppet company commander and the Japanese commander Cao, along with most of the commando team and two guard squads!
On the third floor of the turret, when two people introduced the situation of the position to Xiao Yuan with serious faces, Xiao Yuan directly made an action gesture to the subordinates behind him!
"Pfft..."
The sharp bayonet penetrated into the heart of the Japanese leader Cao easily!
His eyes were wide open, full of shock, and then he fell heavily to the ground with a face full of unwillingness!
The puppet company commander is not dead. There is a bayonet on his neck. If he makes the slightest move, his neck will be cut off immediately!
Seeing the shock and confusion on the puppet company commander's face with a hint of fear, Xiao Yuan no longer concealed his identity!
"Don't be afraid, we are the Eighth Route Army. As long as you do as I say, I promise not to kill you, and I will not hold you accountable for your past mistakes!"
"Plop..."
The puppet company commander was frightened and fell to his knees on the ground!
"Sir, don't worry, I will definitely cooperate. I will do whatever you ask me to do!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the guard company commander Sun Jiawu walked in and reported excitedly: "Captain, the Japanese and puppet troops outside have been dealt with! All the little devils have been killed! Except for five of the puppet soldiers, all the others have been killed.
captive!"
Xiao Yuan's tense nerves completely relaxed and he immediately ordered: "Lock up all the prisoners and hand them over to the follow-up troops!"
After saying that, Xiao Yuan turned his attention back to the puppet company commander: "Tell me about the situation of the Japanese and puppet troops in front of you. The more detailed the better! This is your only chance to make meritorious deeds!"
"I believe that even if you don't say it, your platoon commander and deputy company commander will definitely rush to say it!"
"Sir, don't worry, I will definitely tell you everything!" the puppet company commander replied quickly!
"There is another position ahead of us, which is the city of Datong: there is the imperial army on the position... no, it's the Japs, they have an infantry squad!"
"The puppet army has two companies, which are in the same battalion with me. The battalion commander personally leads the team to defend two gun towers and six machine gun bunkers!"
"Behind them is the east gate of Datong City. When I left the city yesterday, a company of puppet troops and a Japanese combat detachment were guarded there!"
"But there is a station behind the city wall. Inside, there is a reinforced team of Japanese troops and a battalion of puppet troops stationed to reinforce the city at any time!"
Xiao Yuan thought for a moment and then ordered: "Is it possible to capture your battalion commander!"
"Absolutely!" The company commander nodded quickly!
"Our battalion commander and I are brothers. As long as the commander takes me with him, I will definitely capture him!"
"Also, our battalion commander has a very good relationship with the leader of the Japs team there. As long as we can deal with him, the Japs team will definitely be able to do it too!"
"very good!"
Xiao Yuan's serious face soon showed a smile of satisfaction, and he immediately replied: "Okay! As long as you can help me capture the Japanese and puppet army positions in front, you will be punished and meritorious! I can promise you that as long as the battle is over, I will let you go home unconditionally!"
"Thank you, sir, I will definitely serve the crime!" the puppet company commander replied with his eyes shining!
Then he seemed to have thought of something, and quickly suggested: "Sir, we have a telephone here that connects to the positions behind. I will call now to inform them in advance and let them prepare!"
