The miraculous performance by Huang Jiaqing and others inspired the students in an unprecedented way. The unprecedentedly powerful firepower displayed by the Japanese aviation force and the giant ships originally weighed on the hearts of the students like a stone, making them feel uncontrollably heavy. , I don’t know when the continuous explosion will fall near me. However, now, the fear of death has been completely covered by the pursuit of merit. The little devil is so easy to kill. If you can’t seize this rare opportunity to show off, Skill, wouldn't it be a shame for all the sacrifices I have made since joining the army?
The ambush circle was set up, and everyone, including the self-defense team members, waited with bated breath, hoping to replicate the scene outside Changjiang City yesterday. Xue Dehuai held the pistol in his right hand and gently moved it with his left hand. A small piece of grass. He, who is always known for his calmness, actually seemed very excited at this time.
The Komuro Brigade was not generally cautious. Their marching speed was as slow as a snail, and they were spread out widely. There were at least a hundred people at the front searching in a fan-shaped manner. With their cautious appearance, those who were not familiar with the situation thought they were a group of engineers. Mines are being cleared,
"What the heck are you doing?" Some students cursed in a low voice impatiently. Those who saw the clues laughed dumbly: "Grandma, these devils are really not ordinary cowards. It's so damn strange, little one. Aren't the Japs known as the second strongest army in the world? Where did these Japs come from?" Since the Xiaoshi brigade appeared in Xue Dehuai's field of vision, his left hand became steady, and after seeing their actions clearly , he shook his head and smiled helplessly: "It seems that this ambush can't be fought." He looked around and suddenly shouted: "Brothers, pay attention, prepare to attack." Then he said: "Just go around it. Mine array."
"Yes." The students responded, checking their weapons and equipment again and making preparations for the attack.
However, at this moment, the Japanese queue suddenly stopped.
A self-defense team member did not hide very well and was seen by a Japanese soldier. He immediately said: "Everyone, stop, there is a situation."
All the Japs stopped immediately. The Japs reported the situation to their superiors. The latter looked in the direction of his finger, then ran to the small room and reported the discovery. The small room picked up the telescope and looked over, and sure enough he saw a The figure was lying in a patch of grass. He inspected the woods again and felt that it was an ideal ambush. He immediately became vigilant and ordered everyone to stop. He called several squadron leaders over and discussed with them. They all felt that the risk was not worth taking, so the next scene that stunned Xue Dehuai and others appeared. As the small room waved and shouted, the Japanese suddenly turned back collectively, and then ran away. Their movements were uniform and fast. , actually far superior to the elite Japanese troops they saw in Nanjing.
"In the camp, the kid ran away." "The kid found us." "Is this a ploy to lure the enemy?" "In the camp, let's chase him or not."...
Facing the brothers' questions and looking at the Japs escaping in a hurry, Xue Dehuai couldn't laugh or cry. For a long time, he sighed: "These Japs are really the best."
The Xiaoshi Brigade was so frightened that they turned and ran away just because they found a suspicious person hiding in the grass. This made them a laughing matter in the mouths of the cadets at Xue Dehuai Camp. Because of this, the cadets unconsciously developed a feeling of arrogance against the enemy. And this foreshadowed their next fate,
At around 8:50 in the morning, new intelligence came back from the scouts outside Qifang Town, saying that a large group of Japanese troops were heading towards Qifang Town under the cover of more than a dozen fighter planes. Xue Dehuai took it for granted. The group of Japs who had been scared away in the morning came back with reinforcements. While he asked the scouts to continue their reconnaissance to obtain specific data on the enemy, he gathered troops and prepared to use the mine array set up in the morning to ambush the Japs. At about a quarter of an hour, specific enemy data was sent back. Seeing that there were thousands of Japs, Xue Dehuai frowned slightly and stopped taking it seriously. He encouraged his subordinates and said: "It doesn't matter how many Japs there are, Rabbit My friends can only be sheep and pigs. Brothers, do you have the confidence to win?"
"Yes." "In the camp, we will give him a great victory in Changjiang City."
"Well said, let's go."
Xue Dehuai overestimated the Xiaoshi Brigade. After the Xiaoshi Brigade escaped from the possible ambush, they did not dare to go back to fetch reinforcements. Instead, they returned along the original route back to the starting point. Then, these cowardly guys hid in the woods. Get up and wait quietly for darkness to fall.
With fighter planes in the sky constantly threatening and oppressing, and with Shigeru Sawada personally taking command, nearly 12,000 Japanese troops from the 8th, 61st and 70th regiments of the Osaka Division finally plucked up the courage to launch an attack like "mercury pouring down the ground" , in the coastal area of southwestern Qiong, except for Changjiang City which was captured by the Ishii Brigade, other towns and cities have been deserted, but they are still unoccupied areas. Therefore, something that made Yamamoto Isoroku laugh and cry happened. One victory telegram after another Flying back to the Kaga, "Wulie Town has been captured by me", "Sanjiang Town has been captured by our brigade", "Baoping has been captured by our brigade"... When he received the first victory telegram, he thought he was Under his own extraordinary measures, the Osaka Division finally came to their senses, so he happily opened it and read it himself. However, after reading a few lines of text, he already understood the intentions of the brigade that sent the victory message. He was so angry that he immediately killed it. The telegram was torn into pieces, and he completely gave up on the Osaka Division, including Sawada Shigeru. He couldn't remember which telegram it was. Yamamoto waved his hand and asked someone to take it away, and then said to Koizumi: "I have seen shameless people, but This is the only person who can be so shameless in this life."
Facing the shameless mid-level and low-level officers of the Osaka Division, Koizumi was completely speechless. He silently calculated and said: "There should be battles in Changjiang, Taipo, Bangxi; Jinbo, Qifang, but I estimate that the Osaka Division only has about one and a half regiments left. Sir, could you please send out all the remaining Marine Corps troops? It is obvious that the Osaka Division alone cannot reach White Sands."
"Let's wait until Taiwan's supply fleet comes over before sending out the Marines. No matter how bad the Osaka Division is, there is no problem in being used as cannon fodder. With them opening the way in front, we can at least figure out the Chinese defenses in the Baisha area."
Taipo Town, Bangxi, and Jinbo Township had no cadets or self-defense forces stationed there. So, not long after, Yamamoto received three more telegrams reporting victory. This time, as usual, he waved his hands to have these telegrams taken away, and then Ask someone to notify Tsukahara and ask him to collect valuable information reported by the returning airmen and forward it to him.
Even though there were fighter planes in the sky to supervise the battle, the Japanese soldiers of the Osaka Division still tried every means to take advantage of them. In the name of capturing local towns and villages, they used the method of drawing lots to successfully station six in the deserted towns along the southwest coast of Qiong. Brigade, so when they appeared in front of the minefield prepared by Xue Dehuai for them, including the troops directly under the Osaka Division, there were only about 6,000 people left.
After seeing Qifang Town from a distance, they found that this town, like the towns discovered earlier, had been bombed by aviation forces. The Japanese officers naturally thought that this was also an empty city, so the five captains drew lots again.
Among the five paper lots, whoever can draw the only one with the word "resident" written on it can lead his brigade to stay in Qifang Town. Therefore, the five brigade captains all treated it with caution. In order to get the first right to draw lots, There was a huge fuss before the draw,
This scene happened to be caught by Xue Dehuai through the telescope. He was puzzled, "What on earth are these idiots doing?" He whispered to himself and handed the telescope to his deputy Li Jun. Li Jun followed Looking in the direction of his finger, he was also confused.
A few minutes later, the lottery was completed. This time, the winner was the Tokiwa Battalion belonging to the 8th Regiment. Under Li Jun's attention, the captain of the brigade, Major Tokiwa Fukunaga, jumped up to three feet like a child, and then He quickly ran back to his own brigade and announced the good news to his men. More than a thousand Japanese soldiers from the Tokiwa brigade gave out deafening cheers. Then, without using Tokiwa for pre-war mobilization, they rushed towards the minefield.
The momentum shown by the little Japs startled Li Jun. The difference in the mental state of the two groups of Japs was too great. Could this group of Japs be the legendary Japanese elite? He put down the telescope and said to Xue Dehuai: "The camp is a bit evil. I'm afraid these devils will be difficult to deal with."
Xue Dehuai took the telescope from his hand and looked at it. His brows gradually wrinkled and he said, "Yes, their morale is very high."
Tokiwa Fukunaga happily led his men to take control of Qifang Town. The remaining four captains all looked jealous and hateful. One of them, Ino Ichiro, said: "Tokiwa is too happy too early? The forest is a well-prepared ambush ground. If the Chinese had the foresight to ambush an army there, hey, Tokiwa and the others would have suffered a lot."
Inou Ichiro's words touched the hearts of the other three captains, and they all echoed their words, as if they wished Tokiwa and the others could run into the ambush of the Xuebing Army.
The Japanese soldiers of Tokiwa Brigade happily rushed towards Qifang Town, fearing that other brigades would steal their luck, and then tragedy would inevitably happen. The Japanese soldiers of the first squadron rushed headlong into the mine array, Then, as someone in the front group stepped on a landmine, the mine array was detonated.
"Boom." A series of explosions sounded, and the Japanese in that squadron immediately suffered heavy casualties. The blow was so sudden that many people were frightened on the spot and shouted for their mothers, and some even turned around and ran away. In the emergency, even No more guns,
"Grandma, I thought it was an elite, but who knew it was actually an illusion." Li Jun laughed when he saw this,
Xue Dehuai saw signs of loosening of the Japanese troops outside the mine array, and realized that this was an excellent opportunity for counterattack. He stood up suddenly, waved his gun and shouted: "Brothers, kill the enemy now, charge."
