On New Year's Eve, the Japanese army sent three large gifts to the cadets. For this reason, the Spring Festival of 1940 was much more festive for the cadets than in previous years. In sharp contrast, the Japanese soldiers

This Spring Festival was not going to be easy - during the Battle of Wucun, the Japanese army had three infantry regiments, a tank regiment, and a security brigade, with a total of more than 19,000 people. In the end, only more than 4,000 people retreated to Yushan.

They set off with great force and fighting spirit, but when they came back they were sparse and bright, and the soldiers were in mourning. This had already made the two major generals Naoji Sakai and Obao the brigade commanders depressed enough. What made them especially ashamed and angry was that the previous attack

The local guerrillas who were defeated in a single blow would actually ambush and pursue them along the way.

The size of each self-defense force is not large, with as many as one or two hundred people, and as few as only fifty or sixty people. Usually, Sakai and Okubo do not even bother to look at this kind of guerrilla armed forces. On the way to attack Wu Village,

As long as they form a team, they can drive away these annoying "mosquitoes". But now, because they are worried that the artillery of the Xuebing Army will catch up, they can only run for their lives like dogs in water, and they don't dare to stop at all.

.

Like mushrooms after a rain, the Guanshan Self-Defense Force, the Jiangcang Self-Defense Force, and the Qiancun Self-Defense Force all sprung up one after another. The half-year operation of the Spark Brigade in Shangrao and Yingtan finally came to fruition. It was natural that these self-defense team members would not be able to confront the Japanese army head-on.

It is no problem to attack the enemy, ambush them, or use cold guns to kill drowned dogs. The self-defense team members fight in the local area and know the terrain very well even in the dark. Precisely because they know the surrounding terrain very well, the 1st Special Artillery Brigade fired three volleys in front and back.

, not only did they have nothing to do, but they also took shortcuts and set up ambushes, mines, and traps along the way that the Japanese army must pass. In particular, the Wancun Self-Defense Force took advantage of the terrain and used landmines to induce a hillside slide, and in one fell swoop, the Japanese army was defeated.

More than a thousand Japanese were buried in stone.

The majestic Imperial Army of Japan was finally stunned and nearly 3,000 people were killed by nearly 1,000 Self-Defense Forces. When light finally came from the east and the sound of gunfire finally stopped, Sakai and Okubo counted the troops and got the details.

After reading the number of casualties, the two men's faces turned pale and they were so angry that they almost vomited blood.

At around 7:30, when the city wall of Yushan County appeared in front of the Japs, many people knelt on the ground and burst into tears. Some people fell directly to the ground and fainted as soon as they closed their eyes. It was rare.

Sakai and Obao did not show off their official power because of the fatigue of their men. They asked the driver to stop the car and then got out of the car tremblingly. The two of them stood holding the car door. Obao's command car was in front, and he turned to face

Sakai said: "Your Excellency, I will take the first step!"

Sakai nodded heavily and said: "I still have something to explain, so I will go down to accompany you in the afternoon at the latest!"

Aobao nodded and asked his men to take out a blanket and spread it on the ground. Then he knelt down and took out the command knife. He committed suicide and apologized. This was a tacit agreement reached by the two people long ago. After a good sneak attack battle, the New Year's strategy changed.

It became a New Year's gift, and someone must take responsibility. Now that the remaining troops have been brought back, Obao felt that he had completed his final mission, and it was time to apologize to His Majesty the Emperor. He wiped the blade repeatedly with a snow-white towel

Then he wrapped it up. This process lasted for about a minute. He turned around and looked around, and found that the eyes he met were all blank and panicked. He gritted his teeth and held the blade wrapped in a towel with both hands, and stabbed himself hard.

belly...

After Obao, three of the four captains who escaped also made the same move. Sakai said goodbye to them one by one, and promised that he would go down to accompany them in the afternoon at the latest.

When Okuyaru committed suicide, Fujie Keisuke and Miura Saburo were watching in confusion at the joint headquarters as a group of combat staff officers performed war games.

Chengzhen was only about two kilometers away from Yushan. Soon, the joint command received a call from Yushan and was informed of the defeat of the Sakai Department and the Okubo Department.

The person who answered the phone was Keisuke Fujie. The old Japanese yelled: "What? Major General Okabao committed suicide by caesarean section?! Yamamoto Shigenori, the third regiment commander? Eight grids! What's going on? What -"

"Fujie-kun, what's wrong?" Miura Saburo asked.

"Sakai and the others were completely defeated. There were only 20,000 people, and only 4,000 people escaped!"

"Bagalu! How is that possible?!"

A quarter of an hour later, Fujie Keisuke, Miura Saburo and the staff of the 16th Division and the 114th Division rushed to the south gate of Yushan. From a distance in the car, they saw the group of men who were completely out of the army.

Everyone's hearts started beating violently. Fujie and Miura almost simultaneously reached out and grabbed the seat in front of them, with veins showing on their hands.

After getting out of the car, they glanced at the whole place with a heavy face, and looked at each other. Fujie and Miura greeted Naoji Sakai who was walking over. A long way away, Naoji Sakai knelt down with a pop and said loudly: "Two generals

, Sakai has fulfilled your request. Major General Obao and Colonel Yamamoto have already committed suicide to apologize. I will not begrudge this miserable life. Before that, I have something to explain."

Fujie had a more impatient temper and cursed: "Ba Ge!" He raised his right hand and slapped Sakai on the face. Miura hugged him and said, "Fujie-kun, we'd better find out the situation first.

Right. Sakai is also a veteran on the battlefield. There must be a special reason for something like this to happen!"

Fujie panted violently, stared at Sakai with red eyes, and shouted: "Sakai, just tell me if you have anything to say!"

Sakai lay on the ground and cried sadly: "Your Excellency! Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Your Excellency, I, I want to write it down!"

"Ba Ge!" Fujie scolded again and started to kick.

Miura advised: "Now that the matter is over, let's see what he has to say." Then he turned to Colonel Yasuo Takatsu, chief of staff of the 114th Division, and said: "Takatsu-kun, please organize the soldiers to go to the city to rest!

Tell Hashimoto Yasu to arrange an independent camp."

Yasuo Takatsu said "Hai" and carried out the order.

At around 8:15, in the general headquarters of the Japanese 5th Army in Quzhou, two people, Shunroku Hata and Tikiro Furushuo, learned the news of the defeat of Wucun. The two old Japanese looked at each other in disbelief at first, and then pounced on the phone almost in unison. In the end,

Shunroku Hata took the phone and shouted into the phone: "Miura Saburo, are you telling the truth?"

"yes."

"How could this happen? Please explain it clearly to me."

Miura Saburo's tone seemed very dry; "Your Excellency, according to Major General Sakai, the Chinese used hundreds of artillery pieces to ambush! And they fired a new type of artillery shells!"

"Hundreds of artillery pieces? New types of artillery shells? Miura Saburo, do you know what you are talking about? Are all our reconnaissance aircraft pilots blind?"

"Your Excellency, this is the fact. What should we do next? Please give us your instructions!"

Shunroku Hata yelled: "Hachi! What should we do? Everyone is ready to go to the military court!"

Shunroku Hata's emotions were obviously out of control. Mikiro Furuzou heard something was wrong and immediately cut off the phone, and then said: "Sir, please calm down first. The matter has not gotten out of hand yet."

Shunroku Hata's face alternated between blue and red, and his eyes instantly became red with blood. He slammed the phone down, sat down on the chair, and shouted: "Guzhuang, there are fifteen thousand imperial troops! One

Zhan Jinmo, how can you tell me to calm down! Ba Ge, Fujie Keisuke and Miura Saburo, these two pigs!"
