Chapter 194 Ambush the Japanese convoy and the turtle in the jar!

"Send a few scouts to extend security on the road south of Mingjia Town. Judging from the time, the Japanese convoy transporting gas bombs should be arriving at Mingjia Town soon."

Not long after the battle ended, Li Yunlong spoke directly to his second battalion commander Shen Quan.

"Yes, leader."

Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan nodded and immediately sent out several scouts to guard the road a few kilometers south of Mingjia Town.

Li Yunlong then sent people to restore the telephone line from Mingjia Town to Jinghai County that had been cut before the raid began, so that Taro Nagata's headquarters outside Jinghai County could not contact Mingjia Town behind.

Even if he wants to know, it must be delayed until Taro Nagata knows about the accident on the rear.

"Captain, from the documents found in the headquarters of the Japanese squadron in the town, the next telephone contact between the Japanese squadron in Mingjia Town and Taro Nagata's headquarters will be at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Soon, someone reported the unexpected good news to Li Yunlong.

"fortunately!"

Hearing this, Li Yunlong nodded and said: "We still have about ten minutes to avoid being discovered by the Japanese."

"At that time, once Taro Nagata realized that something was wrong in Mingjia Town in the rear, he would most likely send a telegram to the Japanese convoy transporting gas bombs to stop advancing."

At this time, Wang Huaibao, commander of the third battalion of the New Regiment, reminded.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Li Yunlong said: "We can only pray that the Japanese transport convoy will appear on the southern highway not far from Mingjia Town."

What to say, come on.

In less than two minutes, the scouts sent to the south to be on guard immediately rushed back and reported to Li Yunlong, who was at the headquarters of the Japanese squadron in Mingjia Town, "Report to the leader, the road south of Mingjia Town is less than two kilometers away. On the way, our people met a convoy of little devils."

"Moreover, we saw what the Japanese trucks were carrying, which seemed to be boxes of artillery shells."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong stood up from his stool.

"It must be a Japanese convoy transporting gas bombs!"

Li Yunlong immediately said happily: "Damn it, what did you say?".

"Order the second and third battalions to prepare for battle!"

A soldier from the new regiment immediately stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, commander."

He immediately ran out to deliver the order.

Soon, the soldiers of the Second and Third Battalions of the New Regiment, who had received the order, set up ambush on the hillsides on both sides of the Zhenkou Road in the south of Mingjia Town.

In order to ensure that the Japs in the convoy would not realize that Mingjia Town had changed hands, Li Yunlong asked several soldiers to put on the military uniforms of Japs soldiers and stand guard behind the fortifications set up at the entrance of the town in the south of Mingjia Town.

As soon as Li Yunlong commanded his troops to lay ambush at the southern entrance of Mingjia Town and on the hillsides on both sides of the road, a Japanese convoy came quickly amidst the roar of trucks.

In the cab of the first truck of the Japanese convoy, Captain Onojisan, the commander of the Japanese convoy, was sitting.

"Commander, the soldiers on the Japanese convoy are about the strength of a squadron!"

Shen Quan, the second battalion commander of the New First Regiment, lay down next to Li Yunlong, pointed at the approaching Japanese convoy, and said: "The Japanese convoy contains about twenty trucks."

"Tell the brothers, don't hit the shell boxes on the enemy's car. The shells in those shell boxes should be poison gas bombs. In the first round of shooting, concentrate your firepower on me and kill the first car behind and behind the Japanese. Then concentrate your firepower. Kill all the Japanese soldiers on the convoy."

Li Yunlong whispered.

"We are ready, don't worry, Captain."

Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan said with solemn eyes.

If the gas bomb explodes, it will be troublesome. All the soldiers in the ambush have been urgently reminded before the ambush.

At this time, Captain Ono Tsusan, the commander of the Japanese convoy, was sleeping with his eyes squinted in the cab of the first leading truck of the Japanese convoy.

"Sir, sir, wake up, we are at the entrance to the south of Mingjia Town."

Soon, an adjutant sitting behind him patted Captain Onoji's shoulder and softly woke him up.

"Oh? Have you arrived in Mingjia Town?"

Captain Onoji asked after he woke up.

"We're here, sir!"

The adjutant nodded and said softly.

"Yes! I saw it! The motorcade drove into Mingjia Town, stopped to rest for ten minutes, had something to eat and drank some water, and then continued north."

Ono Cisan saw a new group of disguised "Japanese" soldiers standing guard at the entrance of Mingjia Town in the south, so he did not doubt his presence and gave the order to the adjutant.

"Yes, sir."

The Japanese adjutant nodded, then stuck his head out and waved to the Japanese driver in the convoy behind, indicating to continue driving into Mingjia Town.

However, when they were less than 20 meters away from the southern entrance of Mingjia Town, a sudden dense rain of bullets directly hit the driver of the first Japanese truck in front of the Japanese convoy and the driver of the last truck.

All of a sudden, the Japanese driver who was killed subconsciously stepped on the brakes.

Suddenly, the entire Japanese convoy was blocked on the highway.

"Da da da, da da da!!"

The dense machine gun bullets, the first round of shooting, directly beat Captain Ono Jisan, the commander of the Japanese convoy in the cab of the first truck in front, into a sieve immediately.

Without the command of the commander of the Japanese convoy, all the Japanese soldiers in the entire convoy were quickly killed.

Although some of the ambush bullets hit the artillery shell boxes on the vehicle, fortunately they did not cause the shells to explode.

The ambush did not last for five minutes. A total of 199 people in the Japanese convoy and the Japanese squadron escorted by the ambush were killed, and no one escaped.

"Commander, all the Japanese soldiers on the convoy were wiped out and more than two hundred rifles were seized."

After the ambush was over, the second battalion commander Wang Huaibao briefly reported to Li Yunlong: "A large number of Japanese artillery shell boxes were found on 20 trucks. An urgent inventory found that there were 400 poison gas bombs!".

Li Yunlong heard the news and immediately boarded one of the Japanese trucks himself.

In the compartment behind the cab, I opened a shell box and saw poison gas bombs one after another.

"Move all these gas bombs to a mountain col one kilometer south of Mingjia Town and store them secretly!"

Li Yunlong thought for a while and said in a solemn voice: "After the war is over, we are asking the brigade headquarters to send people who can handle these gas bombs. By the way, let the soldiers who carry these shell boxes pay attention and pay attention to safety. !".

"Yes, leader."

Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan nodded, and then immediately arranged for soldiers to carry these gas bombs to a mountain col temporarily designated by Li Yunlong for secret storage.

Li Yunlong then sent a correspondent to Xu Rui's 303rd Regiment to send a secret telegram to inform them of the situation in Mingjia Town.

At 2:48 pm, inside the south gate of Jinghai County, on the roof of the temporary bunker headquarters of the 303rd Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army.

"Reporting to the regiment, we have received a secret telegram from the leader of the new friendly regiment Li Yunlong. They have successfully captured and recaptured Mingjia Town, and before sending the report, they successfully ambush the Japanese convoy transporting gas bombs that arrived in Mingjia Town.

"

Gu Jiaping, communications staff officer of the 303rd Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army, ran up to the roof of the bunker headquarters and reported to Xu Ruixin, who was observing the situation outside the city with Chief of Staff Luo Youdu.

"Well done, Captain Li Yunlong!"

Hearing this, Xu Rui immediately laughed and said: "Then we don't have to worry about the threat of gas bombs from the Japanese."

"Hahaha, plus Mingjia Town was captured by two battalions of the friendly New First Regiment, there are actually more than 2,000 troops! Judging from the current situation, the remainder of the 36th Division and the 41st Infantry Regiment have been captured by the friendly New First Regiment.

The two battalions blocked the retreat and cut off Taro Nagata's ground supply line."

After a pause, Xu Rui chuckled and said, "Taro Nagata has become the turtle in the urn!".
