But he needs to be faster, otherwise he will easily make mistakes.
The First Battalion is different from Lao Snoring's special agent battalion. Although the whole battalion also has people who can speak Japanese, it is still fundamentally different from the soldiers of the Third Battalion.
So if a battalion of soldiers encounters a Japs, they will definitely be exposed because their Japanese is not good enough.
So Duanwu took the horse Ping An, not even Zhu Shengzhong, and rode directly to the front of the team.
At the same time, the little devil's cavalry had entered the woods.
Logically speaking, the cavalry are not willing to enter the woods. But they are a reconnaissance team.
There were many such Japanese cavalry teams. They were ordered to find the whereabouts of the Dragon Boat Festival Supervisory Corps.
Because the Dragon Boat Festival supervision team disappeared again after the attack on Luoxia Valley. Although Doihara was angry, he used the cavalry to conduct a large-scale investigation.
So in the woods along the way, the little devil's scouts would also go in and search, but they didn't want to accidentally bump into the Dragon Boat Festival.
The Japanese cavalry were not very fast in the forest. According to the orders from above, they had to search every part of the forest.
Moreover, there are many people in the supervision team, so it is not that easy to hide them completely.
Of course, it is undeniable that these little devils are very cautious. After they entered the forest, their horses kept driving at a constant speed, and the little devils' officers kept using binoculars to look at the nearby woods and mountains.
Conduct investigation.
"Wait a moment!"
The little Japanese team leader held a telescope and saw the supervisory team resting in the woods. But the supervisory team was wearing Japanese clothes.
They felt that the other party was one of their own, but they were not sure. After all, the little devil had already experienced the methods of supervising the corps many times.
At this time, the Japs squad leader was about to let the vanguard go over and understand the situation, but at this moment, two officers from the Imperial Army were riding towards them on horseback.
The little Japanese officer was very happy, because if the other party came by himself, it would save them the risk. Moreover, there were only two people in the other party, but there were more than a dozen of them.
The advantage in numbers made the little devil feel much calmer.
"A major, a captain, that major is very young!"
The captain of the Japanese cavalry team saw clearly the military ranks of Duanwu and Ma Ping'an through the telescope.
He murmured in his mouth, which was a warning to his colleagues around him. The other person is Major and Captain. Please stay calm for a while.
When the Dragon Boat Festival and Ma Ping'an were approaching, the Japanese cavalry squad leader immediately saluted them. Then he said: "We are the 14th Division of the Imperial Japanese Army, the Imperial Army of the 18th Cavalry Regiment, and we are being ordered to search and escape."
Supervisory Corps. Which part of the Imperial Army are you from?"
Duanwu had already expected it and answered very smoothly: "We are just like you. We are also from the 14th Division. My name is Toyota. I am the highest commander here. I have been ordered to search for the whereabouts of the supervision team here."
Listening to Duanwu's fluent Tokyo accent, the Japanese cavalry squad leader stood in awe. Then he asked, "Sir, have you searched this area?"
Duanwu replied: "That's about it. We will continue to search northward, hoping to find traces of the Supervisory Corps. By the way, have you heard that the Supervisory Corps may have escaped disguised as the Imperial Army?"
The Japanese cavalry squad leader shook his head and said: "We have not heard that the Supervisory Corps disguised themselves as the Imperial Army and escaped. But is this true? If the Supervisory Corps disguised themselves as the Imperial Army, then I am afraid that the reconnaissance planes will be useless."
Duanwu echoed: "That's true. I really don't want it to be true."
After that, Duanwu said again: "Would you like to come to my camp to have a rest? I have food there."
The captain of the Japanese cavalry was flattered, but he didn't dare to eat it.
Of course, it was not that he doubted Duan Wu's identity, but that Duan Wu, as a major commander and a native of Tokyo, did not dare to be too presumptuous.
So the captain of the Little Devil Cavalry saluted the Dragon Boat Festival again and left with his people.
Ma Ping'an laughed at this time and said: "Brother Duanwu, did you hear it just now? These little devils don't even know that we have made up to become them."
Duanwu said: "I also find it a bit strange. We put our own clothes on the Japs in Luoxia Valley, but the Japs' clothes disappeared. Even a fool knows what happened. But the little Japs don't seem to know this.
thing.
And just now, I just asked tentatively, and if we say it first, we can also dispel the little devil's doubts. But I don't want the little devil to know anything about it."
Ma Pingan smiled and said: "Maybe God is helping us!"
Duanwu smiled, but didn't say anything. Because who can tell clearly about the things of God!
He and Ma safely returned to the camp and let the soldiers rest for a while while waiting for the Japanese cavalry regiment to pass in front of him.
However, ten minutes passed, and twenty minutes passed, and there was no movement at all from the little devil's cavalry regiment.
Dragon Boat Festival immediately sent out scouts to investigate, because it had already been twenty minutes, and no matter how slow the Japanese cavalry moved, they should have arrived, right?
It's just that this investigation doesn't matter, as soon as he investigates the little devil's movements, Duan Wu frowns.
The little devils are gathering, but the direction they want to go is not to continue eastward, but to turn back westward. And if they hadn't sent too many reconnaissance teams, they might have already taken action at this time.
Dragon Boat Festival had a bad premonition that the little devil must have discovered something.
But it was not discovered that he was in disguise, but on the west side of the little devil were the Second and Fourth Battalions led by Shangguan Zhibiao.
Duanwu felt that the little devil was going after Shangguan Zhibiao.
Interception, there is no such chance at this time. The little devils are gathering on the plain two kilometers away from their place. He has two possibilities for rushing over now. One possibility is that they have arrived and the enemy has left. The second possibility is that they have arrived and the enemy has left.
If you were exposed on the plains and fought against the Japs' cavalry, you would definitely suffer heavy losses.
So Duanwu made an instant judgment. He immediately asked Lao Abacus to contact Shangguan Zhibiao and tell them that they might have been exposed. The Japs' cavalry was gathering and the target was most likely them.
At this time, Duanwu was not 100% sure that the little devil had discovered Shangguan Zhibiao and others.
Because if the little devil received any new orders, it was possible to stop and then turn back to the west.
But no matter what the reason was, Shangguan Zhibiao had to know, otherwise even if the little devils weren't going for them, they would probably find traces of them when they turned back.
And if Shangguan Zhibiao and others were found in the plain area, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Shangguan Zhibiao is carrying an artillery battalion. The artillery battalion moves slowly and is very likely to encounter the Japs' cavalry in the plains!
