Chapter 0978 Capture the invincible little steamer of Kunshan Town!
The old Japs from Kunshan County never dreamed that the more than 300 Japs soldiers he brought were nothing but mantises. When he was confidently preparing to intercept the Dragon Boat Festival, he saw an enemy ten times his size.
His defense line was almost collapsed with one blow, because Dragon Boat Festival would not charge with human heads. It would be a waste to pull out so many artillery shells from the little devil's arsenal and not use them to attack the little devil.
In addition to emptying the Japanese arsenal of machine guns, heavy machine guns and other weapons, Zhou Weiguo also moved most of the artillery shells.
There are no less than a thousand rounds of various artillery shells, just for breaking out of the encirclement.
Therefore, the independent regiment's firepower at this time cannot be resisted by ordinary Japanese soldiers, let alone with the advantage of a large proportion of troops.
A hundred rounds of artillery shells were fired, and more than half of the Japs were killed or injured in an instant. They had no intention of fighting, not to mention the large number of enemies. Unless the Japs commander's head was scratched by the arm of the plane, he would never be stupid enough to stay and face the enemy with hard steel.
What's more, this is completely different from the order above. Didn't we agree to stop only one person in the Dragon Boat Festival? Why did so many people suddenly appear?
The Japanese commander almost burst into tears and fled in disgrace with those who were still alive.
But he also committed a taboo among military strategists because of this, leaving your back to your enemies, then you may die without knowing how you died.
They chased them all the way during the Dragon Boat Festival, driving the Japanese to the foot of Kunshan Town like chasing rabbits, and then chased the Japanese into the city.
There are cannons on the Japanese city wall, but their commander is still under the city. Do they dare to fire?
When his commander entered the city, the enemy also came in pursuit. Some of them continued the pursuit, while others rushed directly to the city wall.
The Japanese on the city wall resisted, but in the surging crowd, they were soon overwhelmed.
The combat capability that the Japanese were most proud of was now like rotten wood.
This is the legendary master who was beaten to death with a stick.
Although the Japs are strong, there are many people during the Dragon Boat Festival. In addition, experienced veterans serve as company and platoon-level cadres, so it is difficult for the Japs to get any advantage.
The Dragon Boat Festival started at ten o'clock in the morning, but the entire Kunshan County had been occupied by a quarter past twelve. Most of the Japs in Kunshan County were killed or injured, and less than a hundred were able to escape.
Zhou Weiguo laughed loudly and said that it was a pleasure to fight with the Dragon Boat Festival. Not only did they get out of Shanghai safely, but they also conquered Kunshan County with great momentum. If they had enough troops, they could fight a counterattack.
, drove the little devil directly into the sea.
However, Dragon Boat Festival is not as optimistic as Zhou Weiguo. They seem to have won temporarily, but in fact they are still in the belly of the Japanese.
However, the Japanese pursuers in Shanghai have not yet come after them. That is because the Dragon Boat Festival left such a big mess to the little Japanese.
The archives of the Japanese military headquarters were blown down, and the Japanese army hospital was captured, resulting in nearly 1,300 casualties.
In addition, the Mei Mansion, gendarmerie, granaries, oil depots, and trading houses also suffered considerable losses.
Of course, although these losses made Matsui Iwane angry, they were not debilitating.
After all, those who were let go were just some rebels. If they escaped, they could be captured again. Even if the business was robbed, Matsui Iwane didn't care.
At this time, what troubled him the most was more than a ton of gold stolen from the bank. This gold was used to purchase oil from the United States. Once the transaction could not be completed, his Imperial Japanese warships would have to use oars to paddle.
Already.
So this batch of gold must be found and snatched back.
It's just that Xu Bowen is not a fool. Since he decided to rob the Japanese bank, he had already made arrangements.
The road is impassable. If you leave Shanghai, even if a car that big breaks through the Japanese checkpoint, it will be tracked by the Japanese. What's more, a ton of gold is not a small amount. If you want to hide it,
It's not that easy, the only way to go is by water.
So Xu Bowen prepared a small steamer at the small pier in Shuibowan early to transport the gold away.
At this time, the gold has been loaded on the ship, and his only seven remaining men, including Cao Ying, are here.
Some of Xu Bowen's men died in the Japanese bank, while others went to lure away the Japanese, so these were the only people left around Xu Bowen at this time.
They were all trusted by Xu Bowen, not to mention that breaking through the Japanese blockade would require the assistance of Cao Ying and others.
So when Xu Bowen saw that the gold was finished, he said: "Let's get on the ship and I will take you out of Shanghai."
At this time, Cao Ying said with some worry: "Stationmaster, how can we explain to the superiors that we are just walking like this? What should we do with the gold? The special commissioner said that we should hand over part of it to the national treasury."
At the same time, although others did not say it, they actually wanted to share the gold. After all, the special commissioner had said that he had handed over half of the gold, and they could distribute the rest freely.
Although it is understandable that the webmaster takes the big head, they still need some soup, right? And more than a ton of gold, even a fraction, is enough for them to live for the rest of their lives.
It's just that they don't know that Xu Bowen doesn't intend to give them a penny at all, and as for the national treasury? Not to mention. He wants to take the gold to Hawaii, play there comfortably for a few months, and then
When he went to the free country of the United States, he heard people who had been to the United States say that the air in the United States was sweet.
So Cao Ying's question at this time made him very unhappy. However, he still wanted to use these people. So Xu Boran said impatiently: "You don't have to worry about this matter. You will have your share when the time comes. Let's start with
Get on the ship and wait until we reach the high seas, then I will tell you our next destination."
At this time, although Cao Ying was suspicious, she had no substantive evidence after all, so she could only follow Xu Bowen on the ship. The ship sailed to the high seas. Although Xu Bowen chose a relatively secretive route, a ton of gold was stolen from the bank.
In addition to road closures, waterways are also being patrolled intensively.
As soon as Xu Bowen's boat left the coast, it was discovered by a Japanese patrol boat.
"Stop the boat, stop the boat, we want to inspect!"
The Japanese officer stood on the bow of the patrol boat and shouted orders with an iron trumpet.
The captain of the boat looked at Xu Bowen, and Xu Bowen sneered: "Ignore him, just rush over to me."
"yes!"
The captain responded and turned on full power. The small steamer drove directly ten meters from the bow of the Japanese ship before the Japanese ship came close.
The Japanese officer was furious and chased after him, shouting orders to shoot.
But Xu Bowen, an old fox, may have made arrangements for his escape long ago. He actually installed twin engines on the small steamer and drove it at full speed. The little devil's patrol boat could not catch up.
The little Japanese was so angry that he fired a few rounds and fired for a while. He could only curse and watch a small steamer getting farther and farther away from them.
However, the little devils will not let go of this small fire wheel easily, because firstly, the small fire wheel did not stop during their interception. And secondly, even a fool can see that the small fire wheel is
Modified.
Therefore, there are many doubts on this ship. How can the Japanese let this ship go so easily? They are using the radio to contact nearby patrol boats to pursue and intercept the escaping small steamer. They must not let it escape to the high seas!...
