Chapter 62 Fishing Tactics

Gao Shenxing, the one-eyed dragon rolled and crawled and followed quickly. In less than half a bag of cigarettes, the three of them had already escaped a thousand meters away.

After entering a small forest, the one-eyed dragon couldn't help but complain to Gao Shenxing: "What's your name? Why are you screaming at me? Is your mouth cramped?"

Gao Shenxing smelled a stinking face and said nothing.

Xu Shijiu said: "Shenxing speaks Japanese. He wants to lead the Japanese outposts over to kill them, but the Japanese soldier is obviously a veteran. He did not fall for the fool, but instead exposed our hidden power."

One-eyed dragon said: "Japanese? He also brought the Japanese outposts over? This is called being smart."

Gao Shenxing couldn't bear it anymore and said hungrily: "Then what better way do you have?"

"I..." The one-eyed dragon opened his mouth but was speechless. He really had no better way.

In fact, it was easy to kill the Japanese military post at that time, but it was almost impossible to solve the Japanese post without disturbing the Japanese army in the courtyard. If you could easily touch the Japanese post and take the Japanese camp at will, why did the Anti-Japanese War take eight years? The little Japanese would not be able to hold on for even eight months.

The one-eyed dragon was still muttering, but Xu Shijiu suddenly stopped and lowered his voice and said, "A Long silent!"

One-eyed dragon was stunned, Gao Shenxing next to him suddenly raised his head. Xu Shijiu moved his head slightly to argue the voice in the wind, then fell to the ground again, shouting to the two behind him, "Let's go down!"

One-eyed dragon and Gao Shenxing just lay down, and a bright beam of light shone in front of him. Then there was another beam, and then another beam. The beams of light columns finally gathered into a large light curtain, illuminating the entire field as bright as daytime, and then there was a huge engine roar, which turned out to be a huge Japanese convoy!

The three of them looked at each other and pressed their heads lower.

In less than a moment, the huge convoy approached the section where they were hiding. Xu Shijiu counted secretly and there were more than a dozen tricycles and eight trucks, and two armored vehicles were rumbled in between. Behind the convoy, there were Japanese soldiers from the fourth column running and following up, and at least one infantry brigade!

The Japanese convoy rumbled along the highway and headed straight for Gu Jiazhai.

After the Japanese army passed, the one-eyed dragon said to Xu Shijiu with lingering fear: "Captain, the Japanese team of troops came so fast, and it was just for the three of us. As for such a big battle?"

Xu Shijiu didn't say anything, but his brain began to move quickly.

In a moment, the Japanese convoy drove to the drying ground in front of the Gu family house. Xu Shijiu raised his telescope and the two armored vehicles had already parked in front of the courtyard at the entrance of the village. He hurriedly greeted a team of Japanese soldiers from the courtyard and lined up. Then, even after several Japanese officers got out of the armored vehicles, they were far away and could not see clearly what rank they were in.

After a few conversations, the Japanese officer who got out of the car suddenly slapped several times the Japanese officers who came out of the compound. The Japanese officers who came out of the compound were beaten in the head and came over again, then they were beaten in a slander, and they were coming over again, probably also responding "Hayi" and "Hayi".

After a while, the Japanese convoy drove back along the highway. Gao Shenxing and the one-eyed dragon were confused. What was the Japanese singing about this?

Xu Shijiu put down the telescope and pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "Let's go back."

After saying that, Xu Shijiu turned around and left, Gao Shenxing, and the one-eyed dragon followed without saying a word. Although the two of them were full of questions, they still held back and did not ask questions.

#############

Back on the south bank of Dijing River, I passed the command and entered the small bamboo forest, but found that there were a large group of uninvited guests.

With the flashlight that suddenly swept through, we can see clearly that the group of uninvited guests were wearing the same gray cloth military uniform, the same rubber-soled black cloth shoes, and the same German steel helmet. The armed belt around their waists was tightly braked, two canvas bullet belts crossed on their chests, holding a new middle formal rifle in their hands, and eight grenades were falling on their waists.

Seeing Xu Shijiu and the other two, the uninvited guests glanced at the cold eyes.

An invisible and huge pressure instantly enveloped Xu Shijiu and the others. Xu Shijiu's eyes narrowed slightly. You can tell from the momentum that this must be a group of veterans who had fought out of the dead. Gao Shenxing was still cold, but the one-eyed dragon gently straightened the steel hem on his head, and subconsciously pulled the hem of the gray cloth military uniform.

The old uncle led an officer to greet him, and his rank could not be seen clearly in the darkness.

When he got closer, the officer suddenly stood at attention towards Xu Shijiu and introduced himself: "I am the Colonel Commander of the 306th Regiment of the 153rd Brigade of the 51st Division, Qiu Weida."

"I am the 19th Brigade of the 58th Division, Xu Shijiu." Xu Shijiu didn't know what rank he was now. The Ministry of Military Affairs posthumously awarded him as Army Colonel, and there was no following to take back his rank, but his position was only lieutenant colonel battalion commander, so he really didn't know how to introduce himself, so he simply refused to introduce him.

Xu Shijiu did not expect that the 51st Division actually arrived at Luodian before the 58th Division.

In fact, the only one who arrived in the 51st Division was Qiu Weida's 306th Regiment, and the main force of the division was still a hundred miles away.

"It turns out to be Captain Xu." Qiu Weida had just arrived in Shanghai and had never heard of the name Xu Shijiu, but she did not look down on him. No matter what, she will be a colleague of the Seventy-Fourth Army in the future. She said again, "I heard that Captain Xu had just returned from reconnaissance behind enemy lines. I wonder if he had found any valuable information?"

"I gained a little." Xu Shijiu mentioned the situation he found out.

"So, the Japanese lack of troops, is this fishing?" Qiu Weida's battlefield insight was also quite keen. Xu Shijiu just briefly mentioned some points, and he immediately realized the fighter jets.

"There is such a doubt in Beizhi." Xu Shijiu couldn't help but look up to Qiu Weida.

Qiu Weida pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "Captain Xu, I want to use the Japanese fishing tactics to attack him, but you need your assistance, especially Captain Xu, to help me?"

Xu Shijiu said, "You and I belong to the Seventy-Fourth Army, why don't you want to?"

"Okay." Qiu Weida was overjoyed when she heard this, and turned around and shouted, "Tent, map."

Qiu Weida's two guards quickly set up a field tent, and his adjutant also took out the map from his bag and spread it out in the tent. Qiu Weida and Xu Shijiu then got into the tent.

Xu Shijiu called out the flashlight and said to the map: "Please look at Qiu Tuanzuo. Gu Jiazhai is here, and there are less than one squad of defenders. However, the Japanese troops from the north reacted very quickly. I suspect that they were stationed in Zhouzhai or Shenjiaqiao. If Qiu Tuanzuo intends to ambush the Japanese army, then they can only fight here, Wudoujing."

"Wudoujing?" Qiu Weida nodded slightly and said, "What's the terrain there?"

Xu Shijiu did not answer, but just stretched his head out of the tent and called the one-eyed dragon in.

One-eyed dragon came in and said, "The two commanders, the terrain of the suburbs of Shanghai is similar. Apart from the riverside, there are open lands, and it is difficult to find a few small hills. However, there are large cotton fields near Wudoujing. The cotton plants have not yet withered yet, so it is absolutely no problem to hide a thousand people."

Qiu Weida raised her wrist and looked at her watch, and said, "There are nearly six hours left before dawn, and there is enough time!" After that, she said to Xu Shijiu, "Captain Xu, I will hand over the Japanese army from the Gu family to you. The Japanese army coming to the north to help us will hand over the 306th Regiment. Once I am ready, you will take action immediately."

"Yes!" Xu Shijiu raised his chest and stood attentively.

Qiu Weida patted Xu Shijiu on the shoulder and said to the one-eyed dragon: "This brother seems to be familiar with the nearby terrain. If you are willing to take our group to Wudoujing."

"Yes!" The one-eyed dragon also stood at attention.

In a short while, the officers and soldiers of the 306th Regiment who were resting in the bamboo forest stood up one after another and began to gather in line with the commands of officers at all levels. Then they drove out of the bamboo forest in groups and soon disappeared into the vast night.

At this time, Qiu Weida and Xu Shijiu didn’t know that Luodian Town had fallen before dark, and the entire Battle of Songhu had reached a critical moment of life and death!

#############

Just when Qiu Weida and Xu Shijiu decided to surround the site to attack aid, Chen Cheng, commander-in-chief of the 15th Army, called Jiading and scolded Luo Zhuoying, the commander of the 18th Army.

"Luo Zhuoying, what are you doing? One army can't defend the Luodian?!"

"Take Luodian back, organize troops to retake Luodian immediately. If you can't take it back, don't do it!"

"I don't want to listen. Don't tell me that these are useless. I just want the result, I just want the Luodian!"

After Chen Cheng scolded, he hung up the phone. Luo Zhuoying's face was embarrassing, and he couldn't blame Chen Cheng for being angry, because the gains and losses of Luodian had a great impact on the entire Battle of Shanghai.

Once Luodian is lost, Jiading will open its doors.

Once Jiading is lost, not only will the back of the 9th Army be exposed to the Japanese army's military front, but the Japanese army can also cut off the road traffic between Nanjing and Shanghai. Then more than a dozen elite divisions of the Central Army gathered in Shanghai will have half a breath. Such serious consequences are definitely not something Luo Zhuoying can bear!

Luodian has been lost, Jiading is in danger, but the reinforcements are still a hundred miles away!

Luo Zhuoying called and the commander of the 11th Division Peng Shan came to Taicang in a dusty manner.

"Teacher Peng, what did you do? Why did you lose Luodian?" Luo Zhuoying, the commander of the 18th Army, has a famous good temper in the army, but at this time he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Military, the Japanese army's firepower is too strong, with planes and cannons, and the casualties are too great. Just a few days ago? Our 11th Division is almost exhausted!" Peng Shan patted the mud on his body and said miserably, "Replenishment Soldiers, Maritary, when will the supplementary soldiers you promised to give our division arrive? There are also the 14th Division and the 94th Division, when will it arrive?"

"It's almost time, the replenishment troops are coming soon, and the 14th Division and the 94th Division are coming soon." Luo Zhuoying knew that it would be useless to blame Peng Shan anymore, so he suppressed his anger and persuaded him, "Master Peng, you must hold on. You must not let the Japanese army break through the defense line of Shi Xianggong Temple. If you hold on, you must hold on. Our army has suffered heavy casualties, and the Japanese army will not be much easier."

Luo Zhuoying originally wanted to scold Peng Shan for venting his anger, but it was not done. Peng Shan asked for a glass of water to drink, and then returned to Shi Xianggong Temple with a sad face.
