"We still have to fight the Japanese who entered the mountains." Sanbao said to several captains and squad leaders: "Only in this way can we repel the Japanese raids on the mountains, and then attack to drive the Japanese out of the occupied villages."
"Yes, just give the order." Everyone said one after another. The battle during the day gave everyone confidence.
"Tomorrow's battle will look for fighters according to the situation." Sanbao said: "But tonight we can't let the Japanese spend the night comfortably. You each send a combat team to the Japanese camp to harass them. This will make the Japanese tired. We will fight again during the day.
If you fight them, they won't be able to hold on for a few days."
"That's the way." Everyone responded.
"Also, if you have a chance, get me some more explosives." Sanbao was still thinking about the Japs' iron bastard.
Ishihara was fully prepared to deal with the guerrillas, otherwise he would not have dared to boast that he would eliminate the Black Tiger Mountain guerrilla brigade and the surrounding resistance forces within a month. Sanbao's rash attack made him quickly counterattack.
Hearing that the guerrillas were attacking the Xiaolizhuang stronghold, he immediately ordered his men to hold on to the stronghold. At the same time, he sent almost all his troops to covertly advance towards Xiaolizhuang, while the other group went directly from Da to support. He expected that the guerrillas
The team will ambush them halfway, and the only blocking force the guerrillas rely on is landmines. After all, the Chinese army's weapons are backward and the combat quality of the soldiers is not high.
In order to deal with the mines laid along the road, he actually asked the superior force to bring in a tank to clear the road. Sure enough, the tanks drove in and destroyed the mines laid, and the two groups of troops were able to move in quickly.
Although some results were achieved in the pursuit, the main force of the guerrillas was still able to retreat into the mountains. Ishihara wanted to take this opportunity to eliminate the guerrillas in one go, so he ordered the troops to continue advancing. After occupying many surrounding villages, Ishihara
He immediately used this as a stronghold. On the one hand, he used traitors to organize armed forces for control, and at the same time, he ordered all troops to enter the mountains for encirclement and suppression.
In Ishihara's view, the guerrillas who retreated into the mountains had no support, and could not replenish their weapons and ammunition, so they would be wiped out soon. However, he did not expect that a small team entering the mountains suffered a devastating blow, which made him furious.
.
This time he dispatched nearly a brigade of more than 500 troops, as well as many Imperial Alliance troops. After two days of fighting, although he occupied the guerrilla station, he also lost nearly a hundred of his men.
However, his main force still existed, so he immediately ordered all the troops to go into the mountains and launch a sweep like a dragnet while cooperating with each other. That night, just as he was looking at the map under the lamp to find where the guerrillas might be hiding, there was a sudden sound from outside.
There were bursts of gunfire and explosions.
His subordinates came to report that there was a small group of guerrillas operating outside the village. Ishihara waved his hand and realized that this was a tactic commonly used by Tubal Road, using the familiar terrain at night to launch attacks. He immediately ordered a counterattack.
As the sound of gunfire gradually faded away, his subordinates quickly reported that the incoming guerrillas were repulsed. Considering the unknown situation at night, they casually did not pursue them very far.
"Tomorrow we will destroy them in one fell swoop." Ishihara said bitterly.
However, in the middle of the night, gunshots came from outside again, and the sound of many machine guns was also heard. This should be the main force of the guerrillas. Ishihara got up from the bed and personally led his men out of the village. But before the exchange of fire, the guerrillas were gone.
At the place where he felt the gunfire, he found an iron bucket hanging on a small tree, with shredded paper from firecrackers inside.
Ishihara immediately understood that this was clearly harassment by the guerrillas, and the purpose was to make his troops sleepy and exhausted and unable to enter the mountains during the day. Angrily, he led the team back to the village and ordered his men to rest. But soon, gunfire rang out again outside, and the Japanese
