Chapter 1292 Knowing the whereabouts
"The little devil is asking for help?"
Watching a red flare slowly land in the sky.
If the weather is good, the signal flare can be seen clearly from more than ten kilometers away.
"Grandma, you're such a bear. I originally wanted to have some shells left. Now that I'm sending a signal flare to call for help, I'll shoot out all the shells from the grenade! Blow up these idiots."
The battalion commander who led the team did not determine the true intention of the Japanese army's signal flares, but this did not hinder their determination to eliminate the Japanese army.
No matter what the little devils are here for, they are here to destroy the puppet army or to have a feast!
The Chinese army has only one goal when it encounters the Japs, and uses all means to completely eliminate them.
"Boom boom boom"
This time, the grenade did not hold back at all and poured all the ammunition brought by the soldiers behind the bunker where the Japs were hiding.
It was originally a mountain road with a lot of gravel. The fragments produced by the explosion were mixed with gravel, leaving the little devil with no place to hide.
Many little devils were not fatally injured, but had more than a dozen wounds on their bodies.
When all the ammunition from the grenade was used up, there were only wisps of green smoke where the little devil was.
The remaining wounded Japanese soldiers were powerless to resist. When the Chinese army rushed forward, no one resisted.
Seeing the little Japs moaning in pain on the ground, the battalion commander ordered on the spot: "Don't leave any of them behind!"
Gao Cang gave them an order to take back the puppet troops, but did not let them keep the little Japanese behind.
For Gao Cang, there is no shortage of Japanese prisoners of war in Anyang Town!
Although the headquarters ordered Zhao Zhiguo to send a group of Japanese prisoners of war back to the rear, there were still more than 500 Japanese prisoners of war in the Ganhei Coal Mine in Anyang Town.
"The little devil is very angry. He dares to come to such a place where he is easily ambushed!" Gao Cang said.
In order to regain face, I lost more than a hundred troops. Isn't this asking for trouble?
"Brigade commander, do you want to send someone to contact the troops and replenish them with supplies?" the staff officer asked.
It's not a problem to fight against the Japs. If the puppet soldiers really want to hide from them, they will be hard to find!
Moreover, this group of defecting puppet soldiers will definitely not want to stay in a no-nonsense zone, a place where bandits are not willing to come. How could the pampered puppet soldiers stay in such a ungrateful place?
As time goes by, they will definitely take the initiative to contact other forces, such as the Jinsui Army or the Northwest Army.
It depends on who offers a more suitable price, and the defecting puppet troops will go directly to join them.
Gao Cang doesn't want to fail to fulfill his orders! If we can't even get these puppet troops back, we will lose the reputation of the First Brigade of the First Army Division.
It is unreasonable that the first brigade could not complete the orders given by the headquarters not long after it was established!
"So many people have entered this place, and no one is providing them with food or drink. Send an order and have the troops guard the entrances and exits. I don't believe they can't be caught."
Taking the initiative to search for this area is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and you may not be able to find it.
There were about 300 people in this group of puppet troops. After defecting, they had no supplies!
They can't eat grass roots and chew tree bark every day, right? They have to find a way to get some food.
"Commander, will these puppet troops do banditry?" the staff officer was worried.
The defecting puppet troops have guns in their hands, and the puppet troops have no other skill points, but the skill points for bullying the people are fully charged.
If there was no food, this group of puppet soldiers would probably directly rob nearby villages.
"Yes! It is indeed possible. Let the militiamen in this area gather and send another company to support them." Gao Cang ordered.
If this group of puppet soldiers dared to hurt the people in Zhao Zhiguo's defense zone, Gao Cang would definitely kill them even if they were valuable.
Just in case, Gao Cang can only make arrangements in advance.
After two days, the puppet soldiers who were hiding finally couldn't stand it any longer!
When food was about to run out, they decided to attack the villages in the Sangui zone first.
This place is already barren. When there is no war, the local people can barely make ends meet.
As the war broke out, the locals fled long ago!
It is not an exaggeration to say that there are ten rooms and nine empty rooms in this place.
However, no matter how desolate the place is, there are still people who can survive. This is the resilience of the Chinese people!
On their way to the headquarters, Zhao Zhiguo and others once passed by a village. There was a troop in this village, and they did not seek refuge with anyone.
The leader wanted to follow Zhao Zhiguo's example and build an army that could compete with all forces.
Their dreams are quite great, but they really don’t have the strength in this regard.
Weapons are unavailable, and soldiers lack combat experience and can be trained, but this insignificant place is almost isolated from the world and has no information exchange with the outside world.
An army that does not obtain information from the outside world and works behind closed doors is like the Qing Dynasty's closed door!
No matter how powerful the dynasty is, it has cut off contact with the outside world and can only entertain itself by dancing at home.
Until the arrival of the defecting puppet troops broke the illusion of everyone in the village!
The defecting puppet army discovered the village, a dilapidated village in the wilderness comparable to a palace.
The defecting puppet soldiers came to the village without thinking. After entering the village, of course they fell into the trap of entering the village first.
However, these traps are only harmful, not fatal!
For example, a bear trap will only break the legs of someone who sneaks in.
The few puppet troops at the front did not have such a good life. The trap in the village was triggered, and the armed forces hiding in the village immediately began to deploy.
However, they soon discovered that things were not as simple as they imagined!
The number of people outside was beyond their imagination.
Moreover, the opponent has excellent weapons. The armed forces in the village are just stragglers. The weapons are all homemade guns and cannons, and some even hold bows and arrows.
"Hurry up and arrange for people to sneak out from behind the village and ask for help from the Eighth Route Army!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader immediately arranged for people to go out.
On that day, Zhao Zhiguo passed by here and once told them that if there was any trouble, they could ask for help from the First Military Division of the Eighth Route Army, and the First Military Division of the Eighth Route Army would try its best to support them.
Now seeing that the situation is very unfavorable to them, the leader also knows that if they fight head-on with this group of puppet troops, they will only die.
I want whatever I want, I want to breastfeed, the baby’s mother is back, I miss my parents, the baby’s uncle is here!
Gao Cang was waiting for news from here, when someone came to report and told them the location of the puppet army.
The troops that had been prepared rushed to the village non-stop!
"Brigadier, do you think our commander really has the ability to predict the future?" a staff officer asked Gao Cang.
"How to say?"
"If he didn't have the ability to predict the future, why did he go to that village?"
Some things are just ridiculously coincidental, but this was a little too outrageous.
Usually Zhao Zhiguo doesn't go west, and the furthest he goes is Wang County, but this is the first time he goes far away, to the headquarters!
