Chapter 89
"The Japanese commander was too cautious. It can be seen from the very beginning of the attack. When the puppet troops were ambushed, he even stood still. Is it just because he was too cautious?"
Zhao Zhiguo racked his brains to think clearly about this problem.
"Company Commander, the division's support troops are already on the way. Now that the Japs have retreated, should we notify the division to stop supporting them?"
The position has been held, the Japs have retreated, and the reinforcements sent by Commander Zhang are of no use.
"Well, let Liu Qingsheng report the retreat of the Japanese troops to the division headquarters." Zhao Zhiguo was still worried, "Dianhou, you arrange two smarter soldiers to keep an eye on the little Japanese. As long as the little Japanese does not withdraw from our defense area,
Just keep watching them."
"Qin Dongsheng, lead our troops to withdraw to position one and place two hidden sentries on the top of the mountain."
Zhao Zhiguo didn't believe that the little devil would retreat so willingly.
However, the fact is that the Japs withdrew from their company's defense area. Zhao Zhiguo originally thought that the Japs would stop retreating after they withdrew from their company's defense area.
However, according to the reports of the returning soldiers, they followed the Japs until they entered Heyun County before returning.
"Which play is this little devil singing?"
Monk Zhao Zhiguo was confused. He had never encountered such a situation on the battlefield.
The Japanese troops on the frontal battlefield would not retreat lightly even if the attack did not go smoothly, but this little devil commander retreated as soon as he was told to retreat without any hesitation at all.
"Company commander, the support troops sent by the division commander have been withdrawn."
Seeing that it was getting dark, the Japs also withdrew, and the supporting troops had no choice but to return to their base.
"Company Commander, don't worry. The little devils only have that little ability. They can't defeat us and they can't waste time with us."
Dianhou and the others have gained confidence, and the little devil is nothing more than a defeated enemy in their hands.
"Yes, company commander, there are sentries watching in front. As long as the Japs come again, our sentries will be able to detect them in advance." Qin Dongsheng also said.
"I hope I'm overthinking it."
Zhao Zhiguo really didn't think much about it. When the little devil returned to Heyun County, he immediately ordered the entire city to be under martial law.
Not only the gate leading in and out of Heyun County, but also the areas where the city walls collapsed were guarded by Jaap soldiers, and no one was allowed in or out.
At midnight, six trucks full of Japanese soldiers were speeding down the streets of Heyun County, exiting the West City Gate as quickly as possible and marching along the road toward Zhao Zhiguo's defense area.
When they were about to approach Zhao Zhiguo's defense area, six trucks suddenly braked, and Xiao Dongyang jumped out of the truck one after another.
A whole squadron of little devils carried weapons and ammunition, but nothing else at all. It could be seen from the things on their bodies that they had been carefully prepared.
"Signal Corps, send a telegram to the commander. In two hours we will be able to reach the Chinese army's positions."
It turned out that the attack during the day failed. Although many soldiers were lost, the little devil was not injured.
What is the terrain advantage of the Chinese army? They attacked for more than three hours during the day and failed to capture it. If it continues to be consumed, reinforcements from the Chinese army will soon arrive.
Once the strength of the Chinese army is increased, it would be wishful thinking for the little devils to take over the positions of the Chinese army.
So the commander of the little Japanese came up with a plan. He could pretend to let the troops retreat, and then kill another carbine.
This plan has two advantages. First, when the Chinese army learns that the Japanese army is retreating, it will definitely give up sending reinforcements; secondly, when the Chinese army learns that the Japanese army is retreating, it will inevitably become paralyzed.
By the time Guo Hanting learned the news, it was already too late. He could not leave the city and pass the information to Zhao Zhiguo.
After receiving the telegram from the Japanese squadron leader, the Japanese commander immediately ordered all troops to assemble and stand by. As soon as the time comes, soldiers from two more squadrons will board the train and go as quickly as possible to support the advance troops.
The large army will follow at any time. By the time the large army arrives, their vanguard must have attacked the Chinese army and successfully occupied the position.
I have to say that the commander of the Little Devils came up with a very good plan.
But he never thought that the position that the Japanese army tried so hard to seize and lost a lot of troops was just a fake position set up by Zhao Zhiguo from the beginning.
It's like something you desperately want to get, but in the end it's just a soap bubble under the sun.
The night before dawn is the darkest time of the day.
The little Japanese soldiers cautiously climbed up the steep slope they had been looking up at during the day, and passed through the thorn bushes that made them angry.
They believed that the Chinese army was sleeping soundly at this time, and as long as they rushed to the position, the Chinese soldiers would be wiped out.
It's still dark, so what the little devil is doing can't be considered a daydream.
The soldiers of the Japs rushed to the Chinese army's position, but the result was different from what they expected.
There was not a single Chinese soldier on the battlefield, not even a bullet. The little Japanese squadron leader even thought they were in the wrong place.
"Sir, you see, we did not come to the wrong place. This is indeed the daytime position!"
A kid picked up a shell casing from a heavy machine gun from the ground. The Chinese army had fought here during the day.
"They evacuated?"
There is only one possible explanation now, and that is that after the Japanese troops withdrew, the Chinese troops also withdrew.
The little Japanese who was holding back his anger and wanted to fight to the death with the Chinese army suddenly lost the anger in his heart like a rubber ball.
"Your Excellency, squadron commander, how should we report to the commander?"
The little Japanese squadron leader finally got this opportunity from their commander. He also wanted to fight a bloody battle with the Chinese army, win the position, and achieve the first success for their army.
But as they discovered that the position was empty, all the little devil's fantasies came to nothing.
"Report it truthfully and notify our soldiers to garrison on the spot and coordinate with our follow-up troops."
The soldiers Zhao Zhiguo arranged on the top of the mountain listened to every move the little Japanese made on the battlefield.
Originally, the two soldiers were already asleep, but after the little devil entered the position, he made too much noise.
He was chirping a bird song that the two soldiers couldn't understand, and the two soldiers became energetic instantly.
In fact, this can't be blamed on the little devil. He was suppressed and beaten by the Chinese army during the day. Now that he finally touched the position of the Chinese army, he naturally wanted to vent the depression in his heart. He screamed and wanted to fight like a chicken.
But the result was already known, and the little devil who wanted to vent his depression became even more depressed because there was nothing on the position.
