The War of Resistance - #1220 - Chapter 1212: Breathless Brigadier
Under the starlight, Shang Zhen, who was half squatting in the grass and watching the Japanese fire in the distance, was lost in thought.
He found that his layout was still not big enough, and he had already considered the complexity of the battle, but now he found that he hadn’t considered the complexity enough!
I don’t know the terrain, the strength of the enemy, or how many Japanese troops are nearby, but on my own side, not only my own guard company with more than 100 people, but there is also a regiment of nearly a thousand people behind me!
Besides, Shang Zhen shook his head involuntarily, it seems that he still needs to make up for his homework!
“Did you see the second devil in the battle these days?” Shang Zhen asked the people behind in a low voice.
“No.” “No.” The soldiers behind answered one after another.
Those who answered were not only members of their guard company, but also the signal soldiers in the brigade. You must know that these signal soldiers sent messages everywhere. They traveled a lot, and naturally they saw a lot.
Since everyone said no, it seems that there are really no puppet troops.
“Company commander, do you want to gaha?” Qiu Bo, who was right behind Shang Zhen, asked.
“We should catch someone alive and ask about the situation of the little devils nearby.” Shang Zhen said in a low voice.
When Shang Zhen said this, the people behind him all understood that the puppet army was captured to ask for a confession, and the Japanese army was captured. How to ask for a confession? Even if the Japanese devils are willing to speak, none of them can speak Japanese!
But at this time, someone behind him asked just like this: “Then why don’t you catch a Japanese devil and ask?”
Everyone just listened to the voice, and it was dark and they couldn’t see what the man looked like, but the voice heard was not a veteran of Shang Zhen’s subordinates, so it should be one of the communication soldiers who came to be the guide.
“Fuck, can you understand the Japanese devil’s nonsense?” Ma Erhuzi’s voice came.
“Of course I can understand and talk, but I don’t know if the Japanese devils are willing to talk, and you, no, can we catch the little devils.” The messenger replied.
“Really?” Shang Zhen asked anxiously, “Can you really understand Japanese?”
“Yes!” The soldier replied in the affirmative.
“You all wait here, Qiu Bo, Big Boss, Li Qingfeng, Ma Erhuzi, the four of you come with me, let’s see if we can catch the two devils back.” Shang Zhen said in a low voice.
Those who received the order would naturally move forward. As for those who did not receive the order, Shang Zhen’s original group of people were just fine, but the members of the guard company did not say a word, but they already felt unbelievable in their hearts.
Isn’t this piercing your ears and eyes when you get on the sedan chair? How can it be possible to catch two Japanese devils here and there? Just this difficulty, just this difficulty is like throwing a needle on the ground in this dark night and then reaching out to find it!
However, Shang Zhen did just that!
This is thanks to the fact that the troops started to move after dark. If they came out later, it would be dawn before the prisoners were caught!
It’s just that Shang Zhen doesn’t care what the soldiers think at this moment, leading them will lead them farther and farther.
The march stopped, and this time even the sound of the officers and soldiers walking in the mountains and fields disappeared. The people in front knew what was going on and waited silently. For a while, but as time continued to extend, they became confused.
“What’s going on? Why are you stuck here?” Half an hour later, Chief of Staff Li Xiang couldn’t help asking in a low voice.
What Li Xiang asked was exactly what Liu Chengyi thought in his heart.
“Come on, go ahead and ask.” Liu Chengyi said in a low voice.
After all, these two are the top officers of the 337 brigade, and they are responsible for their own army after all.
“Yes!” Someone answered and went forward. It was money strings.
“Maybe I met a little devil before. Is this kid thinking about whether to fight or not?” Li Xiang guessed worried that Liu Chengyi and others were in a hurry.
In the dark, Liu Chengyi’s failure to respond was an acquiescence.
But who would have thought that another five minutes had passed, and Qian Chuaner, who had gone to question her, had not returned.
Liu Chengyi is also in the guard company. There are only more than one hundred people in one company, and they are not said to be marching in one column but in several columns. How can there be no reply to the news at such a distance?
After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no news from Qian Chuan’er, Liu Chengyi finally became anxious again and ordered in a low voice: “Send someone again!”
But at this moment, Qian Chuan’er’s voice came from the front: “I’m back.”
This time Liu Chengyi didn’t need to ask any more questions, Qian Chuan’er reported: “Report to the brigade commander, there is a large army of little devils ahead, our company commander led people to investigate the situation, and we want to capture two prisoners by the way.”
Why did Qian Chuaner come back late? When he asked, Shang Zhen had brought people to catch the living. Of course he understood the difficulty. He was also afraid that he would be impatient when he came back and reported to the brigade commander Liu Chengyi, so he didn’t show up when he came back, but he just stalled in front. Woolen cloth!
But at this time, the situation reported by Qian Chuaner was nothing more than the previous one. The latter sentence caught two prisoners and came back by the way, which made Liu Chengyi stunned, and then Liu Cheng angrily said in a low voice: “You son of a bitch! This time is When taking prisoners?”
Liu Chengyi wanted to say more, but then he realized that he was hiding in the dark, so he could only keep his mouth shut, but the anger in his chest was already rising!
What kind of prisoners are you taking at this time? Is this prisoner so easy to catch if he is a rotten cabbage on the street?
Of course there is a reason for Liu Chengyi to be so anxious.
From the heart, a professional soldier like him looked down on the Japanese army from the bottom of his heart at the beginning, all of them are small and sloppy, and if we really fight, we Northeast people with a rough grid can give you a free flight with a single gun butt!
But when he really got into a fight with the Japanese army, Liu Chengyi realized that it was not the same thing at all.
Regardless of the short stature of Japanese soldiers, Japanese soldiers are generally stronger than Chinese soldiers in terms of military quality and psychological quality.
In terms of shooting guns, they were not as accurate as others, in terms of firepower, the Northeast Army was completely at a disadvantage, and in terms of fighting with bayonets, the tall Northeasterners were no match for the small Japanese soldiers!
From the perspective of not being afraid of death, the Northeast officers and soldiers who wanted to kill and go back to their hometown after entering the customs were certainly not afraid of death, but they found that the Japanese were not afraid of death in the spirit of martial arts!
From September 18 to the present, Liu Chengyi, who has become the brigade commander, has to admit deep down in his heart that his hometown in the Northeast is getting farther and farther away from where they are now! And when the Japanese invaders can be defeated has become far away!
As far as China is concerned at present, there are quite a few people who think that the Japanese invaders are invincible, and many of them still hold important positions in the national government. Not a lot!
As for the more Chinese officers and soldiers who resolutely resisted the Japanese, they just took a deep breath in their hearts, and swore to the death that they should not be subjugated slaves.
Just because the Japanese army’s combat effectiveness is very strong, what kind of prisoners is this Shang Zhen going to capture at this time!
If I had known that he was so messed up, I shouldn’t have—
But Liu Chengyi also understood that it was too late for him to regret it now, and he had already let his three regiments fight separately.
Besides, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, so Shang Zhen might be able to make the right choice.
Sometimes, whether an army can win a battle is not only based on combat effectiveness, but also depends on whether the commander in charge of the battle is a lucky general, and a lucky general will also be blessed by misfortune.
Liu Chengyi also asked Shang Zhen. He didn’t think that Shang Zhen was a liar, so Shang Zhen was able to live up to now, so he must be a lucky person!
Now, Liu Chengyi can only think of this to comfort himself.
It’s just that this person, in fact, everyone’s mentality changes according to the external situation.
Liu Chengyi waited patiently for another twenty minutes, and finally he became anxious again.
He rolled up his sleeves subconsciously, because he wanted to see what time it was, but he also rolled up his sleeves and remembered that the watch he was wearing was not luminous, but Li Xiang used a luminous pocket watch.
At this time, Li Xiang, who was also in the dark, seemed to know what Liu Chengyi was thinking, but whispered: “It’s almost an o’clock, this kid should come back, right?”
Li Xiang’s words finally ignited Liu Chengyi’s dissatisfaction that had accumulated for almost an hour. Just when he was about to say “follow my order”, there was a commotion of people walking in front of him.
Then, Li Xiang heard someone in front say in a subdued and excited voice: “The company commander and the others are back, and they really captured two Japanese devils!”
