History was almost rewritten.

The Japanese lightly-armed squad who made a surprise attack killed a colonel of the Chinese army. They were already very satisfied with the result.

But they would never have imagined that in the sewer ditch only a dozen meters away from them, there was actually a future land enemy of the Japanese army, a lieutenant general of the Nationalist Government!

For half an hour, the Japanese army inspected the car, examined the body, and looked through the briefcase found in the car to see if there were any military secrets of the Chinese army in it.

The most coincidental thing is that before retreating, Xue Yue ordered all military secrets to be burned. The briefcase Liu Antang carried only contained some ordinary documents.

Otherwise, once the Japanese army discovers the combat route of the 19th Army, etc., they will quickly realize that there are big fish in the car.

Burning top-secret information, a normal retreat, once again saved Xue Yue's life.

At this time, Xue Yue knew that the Japanese troops were beside him and hid in the ditch without daring to say a word.

How fast is the Japanese army advancing? The vanguard of the Japanese army has already appeared here, but more than half an hour has passed, and the retreating Chinese army has not yet appeared.

But something even more incredible is yet to come.

The Japanese army conducted a beautiful ambush, but they were greedy and prepared to do it again. They ambushed on the roadside, waiting for the next car or the Chinese army to appear.

But an hour passed, and another hour passed. Except for the Japanese planes roaring overhead, not a single Chinese soldier appeared.

The Japanese army would not know that although this was the only way to retreat to Kunshan, the weak Chinese roads could not withstand the retreat of hundreds of thousands of troops.

There were so many people, and everyone wanted to pass as soon as possible, but it seriously slowed down the progress.

All those responsible for organizing the retreat should be shot.

Xue Yue, who had been hiding in the sewer for almost three hours, couldn't help but curse in his heart.

Suddenly, intensive gunshots rang out.

Then, Chinese and Japanese troops shouted at each other.

"306th Regiment, surround them, surround them!"

This is called in Chinese.

Group 306?

Aren't you in charge of the rear position of the entire army? Why are you here?

Xue Yue was a little confused about the situation.

Then, another loud Japanese voice came, probably holding a loudspeaker:

"We are the 306th Regiment of the National Revolutionary Army. You have been surrounded. Put down your weapons and surrender immediately!"

Based on the sound of gunfire, Xue Yue judged that the troops coming from the 306th Regiment had at least three or four machine guns and a dozen submachine guns, and their firepower was strong enough.

A regiment of Chinese troops appeared... No, there was not a regiment. The Chinese were bluffing, but such a dense firepower would not be lower than a company of men and horses.

The Japanese commander quickly made a judgment.

My team is advancing lightly and does not carry heavy weapons. It must not tangle with the Chinese army here, otherwise it will attract more Chinese troops.

The Japanese commander decisively issued the order to retreat.

The gunfire stopped.

Xue Yue didn't know what was going on outside, so he still didn't dare to come out, but he felt a little annoyed.

Why didn't the 306th Regiment pursue the pursuit?

Why did they let these Japanese soldiers escape?

"Is there anyone who doesn't have it? Is there anyone alive who doesn't have it?"

Meng Shaoyuan was holding a submachine gun and pretending to be calling.

Damn the 306th regiment.

They are the twenty-one agents in Zhu Yanni's team that he leads.

Xue Yue, I know you are in the sewer nearby. Stop hiding and come out.

Xue Yue was in danger. Meng Shaoyuan had known about it for a long time. The problem was that no one else knew about it.

Although Xue Yue hid in the sewer for several hours and finally escaped without any danger, he didn't know that he could survive at that time?

Think about it, what if he, Master Meng, could save Xue Yue?

Then this famous "God of War" will definitely look at me differently if there is a chance in the future, right?

Young Master Meng was full of bad feelings. He could not say openly: "Mr. Xue, please come out. You are safe."

Otherwise, when Xue Yue really comes out, ask him how he knew he was in danger?

How to answer that?

So you have to pretend.

Xue Yue just won’t come out?

Meng Shaoyuan pointed to the sewer beside him: "There is a sewer here. Let two of us go down and have a look. Be careful, don't hide any Japanese."

"No."

A voice came from the sewer, and then Xue Yue, wearing the uniform of a lieutenant general of the National Revolutionary Army, finally appeared.

"Hello, sir!"

Meng Shaoyuan looked surprised, as if he never expected that a lieutenant general would hide here.

"I am Xue Yue!"

Xue Yue glanced at the people in front of him majestically, and was equally surprised to find that those who came were not the 306th group at all: "Who are you?"

"Report to the commander!" Meng Shaoyuan's voice was loud: "Director of the Military Command Shanghai Special Operations Office, Meng Shaoyuan!"

"Are you Meng Shaoyuan?" Obviously, Xue Yue has also heard of this name: "On the way to Kunshan, I was attacked by the Japanese army. My chief of staff, guards, and driver all died. Fortunately, you arrived in time, otherwise I would have to

You can commit suicide and die for your country. Why are you here?"

Xue Yue did hold a pistol in his hand.

"Report to the commander." Meng Shaoyuan never blinked when telling lies: "I took them on a mission nearby, and happened to meet that group of Japanese soldiers. I raised the banner of the 306th Regiment, and it really scared those Japanese away.

Already."

Zhu Yanni, who was behind her, curled her lips in disdain.

Who are you fooling?

You gathered the brothers together, cars and trucks, and rushed here crazily. Isn't it obvious that you already knew that Xue Yue would be in danger here?

Maybe, I had already received the news from some insider that the Japanese were going to attack Xue Yue.

However, Xue Yue didn't know that the serious-looking young man in front of him was full of bad ideas: "Have you seen the 306th regiment? How else would you get their number?"

"Yes, sir, I also participated in the Qingpu sniper battle with them. However, we received news that the Japanese army was advancing extremely fast, and our army, which was the rear guard, was surrounded by the enemy. So I suggested that the 306th Regiment retreat.

"

"What? The 306th Regiment is surrounded? The Japanese army is advancing so fast?" Xue Yue didn't know the latest situation at all: "Do you have a car? I need to rush to Kunshan immediately and readjust the deployment."

"Yes! Come here, transfer a car to Commander Xue." Meng Shaoyuan quickly ordered: "Come with two more people and escort Commander Xue all the way to Kunshan!"

The car will be dispatched soon.

Xue Yue patted Meng Shaoyuan on the shoulder: "You saved me this time, so I won't say anything more. Next time you see Dai Yunong, say thank you to me. Meng Shaoyuan, I will remember you."

"Chief Xue, this is what I should do."

Watching the car leave, Meng Shaoyuan smiled happily. When he turned around, he found Zhu Yanni staring at him suspiciously: "Honestly, how did you know that Commander Xue was attacked?"

Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "I won't tell you, I won't tell you."

In the history of military rule, no one deserves a beating more than Master Meng's mean face.

…

After successfully "rescuing" Xue Yue, Meng Shaoyuan was not in a hurry to leave.

Japanese troops have already appeared on the only road from Nanxiang to Kunshan, which means that any retreating Chinese troops may be attacked.

This will delay the retreat even more.

Once it is attacked and causes chaos, the situation will be uncontrollable.

Meng Shaoyuan ordered his men to seize the commanding heights on both sides and closely monitor the surrounding area. He and Zhu Yanni waited for the arrival of the Chinese army to guide them and ease traffic.

The situation is extremely unoptimistic.

On the evening of the 11th, the main force of some divisions of Japan's Shanghai Expeditionary Force had crossed the Suzhou River line on the south side of Taicang, arrived at Huajiaqiao Town and other lines, and pursued westward toward the Kunshan line.

Subsequently, as soon as the 16th Division began to engage in combat, it immediately launched a rapid attack. After Shigeto's detachment landed, the division's first fleet, with the 30th Infantry Brigade commanded by Major General Sasaki as its backbone, was launched by Sasaki's detachment.

After landing on the bank of the Yangtze River near Xuliujingkou, in addition to sending some troops to drive away the defenders near Baimaokou, the main force of the detachment quickly entered the road from Zhitang Town to Changshu and began to cut off the retreat route of the Chinese defenders.

A funny scene occurred.

The defeat of the Chinese army actually did itself a big favor.
To be continued...
