Previously, Harem Jun and Yamamoto Ming could not accurately judge the relationship between Fujitabe, the Fifth Army, the Thirteenth Army, and the Xuebing Army, but now the independent detachment suddenly stepped forward to help the Fifth Army and the Thirteenth Army. Army against the Eighth Army and the Ninth Army, they knew that the three had reached a united front.
Although he had guessed such a result before, Yamamoto still couldn't accept it. After reading the telegram in his hand, he angrily cursed: "These scum actually surrendered to the Chinese."
Harem Jun's face was also very ugly. As a commander at the level of legion commander, he knew all too well what a bad impact this would have on morale. If Fujitabe could not be brought to justice as soon as possible, he would definitely do it in the future. Such incidents will continue to occur, and once such incidents become the norm, then there is no need for them to fight this war again. "Fujita and others must not be allowed to go unpunished." Thinking this in his mind, he frowned and thought. In his heart, Harem Chun had been hanging out in the Northeast for many years and knew what high-ranking puppet military officials like Gui Tianjia and Gu Zhenggang wanted most, so he immediately instructed Yamamoto to do this in his reply, promising Gui Tianjia and Gu Zhenggang that as long as they If Fujitabe can be eliminated, he will allow them to integrate the Fifth Army and the Thirteenth Army.
Regarding the merger and fierce fighting between the Puppet Manchukuo National Defense Forces, the Kwantung Army's previous strategy has been to strictly guard against it to prevent any one of them from becoming too big and difficult to control. Now, in the face of the cruel reality, Harem Chun can no longer take care of this. , and just as he thought, after receiving his promise, Gui Tianjia and Gu Zhenggang were overjoyed and full of energy. They immediately summoned officers above the brigade commander to convey this spirit of Harem Chun, and then, Gui Tianjia roared: "Haven't you all been complaining about not being promoted after years of hard work? Now the opportunity has come. Whether you can be promoted and make a fortune this time depends on your performance. I have discussed it with Commander Gu, who can be the first?" If you defeat Fujita's position, you can choose a brigade from the Fifth Army and the Thirteenth Army to annex. Whoever can kill or capture Fujita and the tall and thin student army can choose at will. The two brigades are merging. Brothers, use the energy you used to fight Yegu and kill, kill, kill."
The puppet troops of the Eighth Army and the Ninth Army suddenly clashed head-on, regardless of casualties, and the hastily established defense line of the independent detachment immediately came under great pressure.
Sensing something strange about the enemy troops, Zhang Xuyun went to the front line to observe personally and decisively ordered a retreat.
"These Japs are crazy. Hmm, do they think they can defeat us like this? Well, let them in."
From the moment the puppet troops of the Eighth and Ninth Army began to exert their strength, more than fifty people of the independent detachment fell in just a quarter of an hour. This rate of casualties was even when the independent detachment faced the superior Kwantung Army. This had never happened before. Therefore, on the one hand, the Japanese deserters in the independent detachment felt tremendous pressure and some became timid, but more people were inspired to fight to the death, no matter if someone around them fell at any time.
Under the urging of officers at all levels, the puppet troops of the Eighth Army and the Ninth Army formed a dense formation and launched a charge. This allowed the Japanese deserters of the independent detachment to kill and injure them in large numbers without having to take aim. Fujita Tsuno had already Going up to the front line, from being full of confidence at the beginning to being frightened and then forgetting everything, he has completely killed himself, "Come on, you guys who only follow the Japanese to pick up shit, come on ,." He yelled and pulled the trigger frantically, and slowly stood up unconsciously.
"Fujita, you don't want to live anymore." Suddenly, he heard a shout in his ears, and then his left leg was grabbed and pulled by a hand, and he immediately fell to the ground.
"What are you doing?" He roared and looked back, seeing Gan Dehai's weathered face, the anger on his face immediately turned into a slightly embarrassed look, and said: "It's Gan Sang, what are you doing to me? .”
Gan Dehai did not answer his question, but pulled him back again. As a bullet flew past Fujita's helmet, he finally realized Gan Dehai's kindness and bared his teeth and smiled: "Thank you, Gan Sang." .”
"Fafa gave the order, the entire army retreats to position two."
"What, retreat, you will be bitten by the enemy. Selling your back to the enemy on the battlefield, isn't this the most unwise behavior?"
When Zhang Xuyun led the independent detachment to various places, during his breaks, he would teach the Japanese deserters some of his combat methods and battlefield survival skills. Because of this, Mu Haoren once had a conflict with him, worrying that if he did this, he would There is a danger of leaking our military aircraft. Once any Japanese deserter escapes back to the Japanese army, the valuable experience gained by the lives of hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of students will be exposed and used by the Japanese army. At that time, Zhang Xuyun was He refuted this: Remember our purpose. In order to achieve this purpose, the independent detachment is a force that we must utilize, so we must let it grow as soon as possible and become a force that can survive in complex and harsh combat environments. , if, I mean if what you are worried about happens, don't worry, I will bear all the consequences.
Facts have proved that Zhang Xuyun's generosity was right. At least so far, no Japanese deserter in the independent detachment has been captured by the Kwantung Army or has escaped back to the Kwantung Army.
At this point, Mu Haoren is really worried. If he had understood the brutal methods of the Japanese army towards deserters and traitors, he would not have had this worry. For the Japanese deserters in the independent detachment, it was precisely because of fear of these punishments that they Now besides following Zhang Xuyun all the way to the dark side, there is actually no other option.
When Zhang Xuyun taught this to the Japanese deserters, the Gan brothers, including Gan Xiaoer, were all listening. Therefore, Gan Dehai was not unfamiliar with Fujita's remarks. He had no way to refute Fujita on this point. He changed his statement and stiffened. He said: "Why, you dare to disobey Chief Zhang's order."
"No, no, I never meant that. Okay, I understand, retreat, retreat, retreat immediately."
The independent detachment began to retreat. The puppet troops who were charging at the front of the Eighth Army and the Ninth Army were ecstatic. In their opinion, they had beaten Fujitabe and turned around and ran away. "The Japanese escaped." Fujitabe started to run away." They roared and accelerated the attack rhythm in excitement.
Later, Gui Tianjia and Gu Zhenggang saw this scene through the telescope. The former finally had a smile on his face. He put down the telescope and said fiercely: "If you want to escape, there is no way. Brothers, attack, attack, completely defeat them."
