Chapter 635 Running faster than a rabbit
While Zhao Zhiguo was thinking about how to deal with Chuan Yuezhi, Chuan Yuezhi also started his own actions in Wang County.
Kawazuki's purpose is obvious, he just wants to control all the Japanese and puppet troops in Wang County.
After all, Kawazuki Tomo has already fought against the special forces, and they cannot accomplish what he wants to do with the strength of one of their squadrons.
Chuan Yuezhi wanted to monopolize power in Wang County and control the strength of two Japanese squadrons. The biggest obstacle was another Japanese squadron leader.
Because of his last command error, the Japanese commander of Pingcheng, Mitsuya Tsukasa, was already very dissatisfied with him.
If the Japanese investigator hadn't gone back to coordinate with him, I'm afraid he would no longer have command authority in the Japanese army.
It is definitely impossible to seize command through normal means, and Kawazuki Tomo also understands this.
Although another Japanese squadron leader in Wang County did not have Kawazuki Satoshi's goals, his ambitions were not small.
As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and this is the best time.
Since Chuan Yuezhi was defeated by Yao Pengju, another Japanese squadron leader in Wang County called Pingcheng almost every other day.
He just hoped that Kotaniji would evacuate Kawazuki Chi as soon as possible.
When the Japanese investigators returned to Pingcheng, they did not deliberately exaggerate Yao Pengju's combat effectiveness, but truthfully reported the investigation report.
Although Guang Gusi did not trust this report, he also understood that there was a Chinese army with good combat effectiveness active in the mountainous area in the northern part of Wang County.
It is precisely because of this that he feels that Wangxian's troops should not be deployed at will.
As long as Wang County is in the hands of the Japanese army, the Chinese troops in the northern mountainous areas will not dare to come out of the mountains in large numbers.
Therefore, after making some trade-offs, Guang Gusi could only temporarily keep Chuan Yuezhi in Wang County.
But Kotani gave an order to another squadron leader. If Kawazuki wants to mobilize troops, he must agree.
This order is tantamount to putting a curse on Kawazuki Zhi. If he wants to achieve his goal, he must first remove this curse.
He is waiting for an opportunity.
However, this opportunity came soon, and the Japanese army did not give up their plan to build strongholds and gun towers near the mountain pass.
As long as strongholds are built, the Chinese army, which lacks heavy weapons, will be blocked in the mountains by the Japanese army.
However, the Japanese army did not dare to send their own people to leave Wangxian County, because the Chinese troops they encountered were so elusive that they could always be caught off guard.
Before the stronghold was built, they lost hundreds of troops, which was not worth the loss.
For this reason, the Japanese army's royal cannon fodder came into play. Half of the puppet troops were sent to the city to supervise the work. The Japanese army could feel comfortable in the city and did not have to worry about being attacked.
Naturally, Zhao Zhiguo would not let the little devils build a stronghold.
After the Japanese army built the stronghold, equipped with a two-meter-deep trench, coupled with barbed wire and searchlights, for troops without heavy artillery, trying to pass through here would be equivalent to forcing their way into the Palace of Hell.
In line with the principle that if it is not solved now, it will be troublesome later, Zhao Zhiguo wants to send troops again to harass the Japanese troops in Wang County.
"Captain, according to the scout's report, the Japanese troops did not leave the city, and the places where the strongholds were built were replaced by puppet troops. There are about a hundred puppet troops in each stronghold."
The puppet army in Wang County was originally small in strength. They claimed to have the strength of a regiment, but in fact there were only six to seven hundred combat-effective troops.
Since the last time Zhao Zhiguo and the others quietly killed a small group of Japanese soldiers in Wang County and hung their corpses on the city wall, the puppet army has become much more honest, and many local people who were unwilling to join the puppet army have also quit the puppet army.
For such a long time, although the puppet army has been actively expanding its troops, no one is willing to join the puppet army unless they are the kind who cannot survive.
Therefore, the puppet army did not expand its troops as fast as Zhao Zhiguo and others.
"Is the little devil scared because he was beaten by Yao Pengju?"
Ma Xiuwen thought to himself that if he got to know someone as capable as Yao Pengju, he would probably be afraid.
"I'm just afraid that the little Japs might cause trouble! Let the scouts conduct more detailed reconnaissance. There are only so many Japanese and puppet troops in Wang County. We must make sure that the combined numbers of the Japanese and puppet troops in Wang County match those outside the city.
"
Zhao Zhiguo didn't know what kind of orders the Japanese army issued.
But he knew that the Japanese squadron leader named Kawazuki Chi had some plans, so he could not be too careful. After all, soldiers are not machines, they are living beings.
In fact, the reason why Zhao Zhiguo wants to be stable is also very simple.
The Japanese army in Wang County lacked heavy machinery. They relied on pure manpower to build strongholds and gun towers, so the efficiency was naturally not high.
Moreover, Zhao Zhiguo also had another idea. Their recruits had been training for a while, and it was time to go to the battlefield and see blood!
A new soldier will always be a new soldier until he goes to the battlefield.
When training new recruits, it is natural to pick the soft persimmons first, so that the soldiers can experience what it feels like when bullets are fired head-on.
If, as the scouts said, the places where the strongholds were built were indeed occupied by puppet troops, Zhao Zhiguo would send new troops there.
"Gao Cang, Qin Dongsheng, you two will lead the team personally, each with a company of troops. Remember that recruits must account for more than half. Collect combat supplies. After receiving the order, set off immediately."
Zhao Zhiguo also ordered Gao Cang and others to prepare.
As long as they are sure that the intelligence near Wang County is true, they will take action against the puppet troops.
The puppet soldiers thought that they could sit back and relax by taking refuge in the Japs, and that with the backing of the Japs, they could do whatever they wanted in Wang County.
The puppet army has never thought that if you want to live a life like a master, you have to pay a price, and there will never be pie in the sky.
The puppet soldiers who were sent out to supervise the construction of the stronghold have been scolding little devils frequently these days.
When they met the Japanese soldiers, they shouted "Taijun", but when they turned around and turned away from the Japanese soldiers, they shouted "Dwarf Winter Melon".
Although the puppet soldiers are sometimes stupid, they also become good doctors after a long period of illness.
The elusive troops in the northern mountainous area have frequently suffered losses for the Dwarf Winter Melons. They are asked to come out to supervise the construction of strongholds, just to use them as cannon fodder.
I will take care of the things you enjoy, and I will send you to death. This is a true portrayal of the Japanese and puppet troops in Wang County.
The puppet troops lived on tenterhooks all day long, and fell asleep at night, fearing that Zhao Zhiguo's troops would come upon them and kill them in their sleep.
Just tonight, Ergouzi's "sweet dream" came true.
After repeated reconnaissance, the Japanese army indeed had no intention of sending troops to leave the county, so Gao Cang and Qin Dongsheng took the troops into action.
The puppet soldiers had no intention of fighting back. As soon as the gunshots were fired, the puppet soldiers ran away.
Gao Cang's nose was twisted with anger when he learned that the puppet troops had fled before they launched a decent attack.
