Chapter 194: Annihilation of Takeshita Kumataro's Group
Chapter 194: Annihilation of Takeshita Kumataro's Group
Fang Ximen said: "I, Fang Ximen, do not belong to the Eighth Route Army yet, so I do not need to obey your discipline.
Brothers of the Eighth Route Army, please retreat. Brothers of the former Fourth Regiment of the Imperial Army, please step out. Let's kill the devils!"
Battalion Commander Zhong chuckled and said: Birds of a feather flock together. He and their Captain Li are exactly the same kind of people.
Takeshita Kutaro: Nani? From the original Imperial Alliance Army? Bagya Road...
Then, the sound of Type 38 rifle gunshots began to ring in his ears.
He suddenly felt a burning sensation between his eyebrows, and before he could feel the pain of being shot, he felt it.
Kumataro Takeshita's consciousness has fallen into infinite darkness.
This deep trench was discovered accidentally by Fang Ximen when he was following the Imperial Army in invading the base.
Fang Ximen was very experienced in using troops. He always found a way to retreat no matter where he went.
When he discovered this abandoned ditch that was several miles long, he told no one.
Because this is the last retreat he prepared for Lu Da Kui and himself.
Unexpectedly, in less than two days, he and his younger brother had passed away.
This morning when they were blocked by the Japanese army's circular fortifications, Fang Ximen had already noticed the ditch.
That hidden deep trench was right next to the rear Japanese fortifications.
After a brief observation, Fang Ximen understood the Japs' intentions.
That deep ditch must be the retreat route the Japanese reserved for themselves.
He immediately found Battalion Commander Zhong and his battalion of troops.
He went down into the ditch far away, ready to attack the Japanese from behind.
What I didn’t expect was that Song Wenwan and the others moved so quickly.
Before the people on their side got down into the ditch, Song Wenwan had already built a circular fortification.
Fang Ximen reacted quickly enough. He estimated that in the end, some of the Japanese soldiers would definitely escape through the ditch.
Instead of fighting a battle head on, it is better to set up a minefield and ambush the Japanese again.
Then they looked down upon the remaining Japanese devils and dealt with them.
This not only kills the enemy effectively, but also reduces casualties among our own people.
What he didn't expect was that the mines prepared by the Eighth Route Army would be so powerful.
The final result was that they wiped out more than 700 Japanese devils at the cost of zero casualties.
This battle not only won honor for Fang Ximen and the Imperial Army he led.
It was also equivalent to all members submitting a letter of allegiance, allowing the members of the Imperial Army to stay in the Eighth Route Army with peace of mind.
Just as the Eighth Route Army soldiers were happily cleaning up the battlefield, danger was getting closer and closer to them.
Kumajiro Takeshita had already bypassed the blockade of the Eighth Route Army soldiers and was running towards Taiyuan.
The brigade commander has already telegraphed Kong Jie, asking him to come here immediately after they arrive in Qijiayu.
Although the brigade chief looked down on the Japanese, he did not consider their weapons new.
But the regiments of the First Death Column were not able to have one gun for each person.
There are more than 2,000 Type 38 rifles seized from the Japanese here, which are just enough to distribute to them.
After all, the emperor had plenty of hungry soldiers, so these captured weapons could be considered as wages for them.
Kong Jie was very resolute in carrying out orders, and finally arrived here ahead of time near noon.
He led the soldiers of the independent regiment and quickly transported the weapons and ammunition back to Qijiayu.
We have to be urgent, as there are still more than 4,000 prisoners of the Imperial Army in Qijiayu.
Kong Jie didn't feel at ease even if he only let the county brigade and district team watch over them.
This Japanese regiment only blocked the Eighth Route Army for less than two hours before it was completely wiped out by Li Yunlong and his men.
The New 1st Regiment and Fang Ximen Regiment had no time to rest and immediately chased towards Sandaowan, the direction in which the Inoue Division was retreating.
At this moment, Inoue Yu was holding two telegram drafts in his hands.
Reading the content of the telegram, he felt really sad.
One letter was sent to him from the 4th Division of Lan County, saying that something had happened to the 4th Division in Lan County.
They were attacked by the Chinese army, resulting in casualties among soldiers.
They are organizing a counterattack and cannot come out for the time being to support the Inoue Division.
Division Commander Inoue Yu was so angry that the Eighth Route Army nearby surrounded him.
Where did your Fourth Division find the Chinese troops?
Can we surround your Type A Division of 30,000 people?
Isn't this just watching someone in need without helping and just trying to be perfunctory with yourself?
This time, Inoue Yu really wronged the 4th Division.
The 4th Division was indeed attacked, people died, and they launched a frenzied counterattack.
However, there were only two Chinese soldiers who attacked the Japanese troops in Lan County.
One Japanese soldier was indeed killed. He was a squad leader who was leading a patrol on the city wall.
The 4th Division really fought back, firing dozens of shells from the Type 92 infantry gun alone. It can be said that the counterattack was fierce.
The attack on the Japanese Army's 4th Division in Lan County was done by Zhang San and Chen Feng together.
Originally, they were taken to Sandaow to watch the game, but neither of them was a quiet guy.
Zhang San just got a good gun, which Song Wenwan gave him before he left.
This is a brand new German Mauser kar98K sniper rifle.
When using a six-fold scope, you can hit a target one thousand meters away.
These two naturally brave men discussed it secretly and decided that there was no point in going to Sandaowan.
They simply took some dry food and rode their horses to a small hill outside Lan County.
These two talented people, one is reading the Chinese version of the sniper rifle's instruction manual.
Zhang San assembled the sniper rifle according to Chen Feng's idea.
Chen Feng lay on one side with a telescope in his hand, acting as an observer for Zhang San.
Zhang San used a sniper scope to observe the Japanese soldiers patrolling on the top of the city.
This was the first time he had used a rifle with a scope, and he felt very uncomfortable. Chen Feng looked at Zhang San, who was fiddling with the sniper rifle, and he could tell at a glance that it was his first time using it.
"Can you do it? It's almost a thousand meters from here to the city wall. I don't think you can hit anyone, right?"
As a second artilleryman in the Dashuling village, how could anyone say that Zhang San was incompetent?
"Wait till I shoot once, and you'll know if I can do it or not."
Chen Feng observed through the telescope and happened to see a Japanese patrol team patrolling on the city wall.
He said, "Brother Zhang, did you see that patrol team?
The one leading the group is the captain of the Japanese army. You can use him to test the quality of this new gun. "
Zhang San had already said it, and if he didn't take action, he was afraid that Chen Feng would laugh at him in the future.
It happened that the northwest wind was blowing at this moment, and as if to cooperate with Zhang San, it suddenly stopped.
Zhang San's reaction was so quick at this time. He quickly aimed at the team leader on the top of the city wall.
I saw him raise the muzzle of the gun a little bit, and then there was a gunshot.
The trajectory of the bullet was obviously a little higher, and when it was almost reaching the top of the city wall, it clearly began to fall.
When the Japanese squad leader heard the gunshot, he subconsciously turned around.
The bullet hit the Japanese soldier right between his eyebrows.
With a "bang", the bullet hit his head right between his eyebrows.
Chen Feng saw through the telescope that the Japanese patrol on the city wall had become chaotic.
