The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 70

"Bageya Road, who can tell me what happened here?" Shao Zuo Kuroki, the captain of the second brigade of Bantian United, scolded angrily.

The command knife in his hand slashed down fiercely, and with a swipe, he chopped off a small tree that was as thick as an arm in front of him.

The field hospital and the train station in front of him were in a mess, and there were corpses of subordinates everywhere. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was very tragic.

"Sir, there are still a few seriously wounded alive in the field hospital..." A scout ran over with a panicked expression to report.

"They said that this place was raided by the Eighth Route Army. All the wounded and heavy soldiers who resisted were killed, and the medicines and heavy ammunition were taken away..."

"Without medicine, the wounded will hardly be able to survive!"

"It's the Eighth Route Army again, I swear I will wipe you all out!" Shao Zuo Kuroki's eyes immediately turned red, as if he was breathing fire, and cursed while clenching his fists.

"Send all the reconnaissance troops out, we must find out the exact whereabouts of this Eighth Route Army, catch up with them at all costs, destroy them, and avenge the imperial army who died in battle!"

"Hayi..." A captain next to the guard immediately rushed to the troops.

"Go to the artillery position!" Major Kuroki raised his leg and rushed to the artillery position.

The mountain artillery and infantry artillery equipped by the Sakata Regiment are there. If they are destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, the Sakata Regiment will lose its ability to attack fortified positions, just like a tiger without fangs, and its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

"Baga, why did this happen? Where did our artillery go?" Looking at the artillery position in front of him where there were no shadows of artillery other than the corpse, Shao Zuo Kuroki was so frightened that he almost lost his footing and cried out.

All the subordinates were speechless when asked.

Facing the empty artillery positions, they didn't know what happened here.

"Sir, Captain Okada is back..." An exclamation not far away helped them out.

Captain Okada, who had escaped from Kong Jie, walked over with a guilty conscience, fearing that Shao Zuo Kuroki would hold him accountable for running for his life and failing to protect the artillery and heavy machine gun squadron.

"Bastard, you still have the face to come back... You lost all of our artillery, how are you going to attack the Eighth Route Army base!" Kuroki Shao Zuo saw Okada and was furious, pointing at the empty artillery The position cursed angrily.

"Sir, calm down..." Captain Okada hurriedly begged for mercy.

Things have already happened, and there must be no chance of redemption.

Either give Major Kuroki a reason enough to escape, or shirk responsibility, and shift the responsibility for the defeat of the remaining troops to other people.

Okada chose the latter, and explained to Major Kuroki's angry eyes: "It's not that I don't want to take back the artillery positions, it's that the heavy machine gun squadron, Eguchi-kun, disagrees with me to counterattack the artillery positions!"

"More than one battalion of the Eighth Route Army raided the artillery positions. When I saw it, I wanted to reinforce the artillery positions. Even if I couldn't defeat the Eighth Route Army, I could still drag them on the battlefield and persist until the main force returned!"

"But Eguchi-kun disagrees with everything. Without heavy machine guns to provide fire support, the infantry squadron will definitely not be able to take down the artillery positions."

"With this delay, the artillery position was occupied by the Eighth Route Army!"

"Also allocate a part of the troops to continue attacking the heavy machine gun positions!"

"We originally wanted to rely on the heavy machine gun squadron to defend the position, but the Eighth Route Army who attacked us did not attack us hard, but dispatched six mortars to bombard our position!"

"We have no way to fight back, so we can only be passively bombed. In order to reduce casualties, we have to order the troops to withdraw from the position..."

"Only 127 people from the two squadrons survived. All the other warriors including Eguchi-kun were killed. All twelve heavy machine guns in the heavy machine gun squadron were lost!"

Major Kuroki was still very angry, but his anger towards Captain Okada was obviously not as strong as before.

Staring at him with a serious face, he asked, "Is what you said true?"

When Okada saw Kuroki's reaction, he knew that he believed his own explanation, and he relaxed more than half of his hanging heart, and quickly assured: "What I said just now is true, if the commander doesn't believe it, you can find the living soldiers to verify it."

"If there is a lie, the humble official is willing to be dealt with by military law!"

"I believe you!" The anger on Kuroki Shaozuo's face decreased a lot, and he continued to ask while staring at him.

"But Cangyun Ridge was raided by the Eighth Route Army and lost all artillery, supplies, medicines, and heavy machine guns... You still bear the unshirkable responsibility!"

"I've decided to give you a chance to make meritorious deeds!"

"As long as you can lead the main force of the alliance to catch up with the Eighth Route Army that raided Cangyun Ridge, kill them!"

"Not only will you not be punished, but you will be meritorious!"

"I have committed crimes and meritorious service, sir, what do you want to ask? I must know everything about the humble job!" Okada didn't want to miss this good opportunity, so he nodded hastily.

Major Kuroki was very satisfied with Okada's reaction, so he opened his mouth to ask, very anxious.

"How many people are there in the Eighth Route Army that raided Cangyun Ridge, and how are their equipment..."

"Which direction are they retreating..."

"Carrying so many loot and heavy weapons, the troops must not be able to run fast..."

"As long as we hurry up, we will definitely catch up with them within an hour, gather and annihilate them, and regain all the heavy weapons and ammunition we lost!"

Okada hurriedly reported: "The Eighth Route Army that raided Cangyunling exceeded two battalions, less than one regiment!"

"The fighting power is no less than the new regiment we attacked in the morning!"

"The equipment is better than that of the new regiment, with mortars and heavy machine guns providing fire cover!"

"After cleaning the battlefield, march to the northeast of Cangyun Ridge and retreat!"

"But I'm a little afraid of disappointing the officer!"

"This Eighth Route Army seems to be prepared to attack Cangyun Ridge!"

"Come prepared, what does that mean?" Major Kuroki didn't quite understand, and asked back with a puzzled expression.

"They brought a large number of mules to the battlefield... After taking down the artillery position, they began to dismantle the artillery!"

"We seized our ammunition, weapons, artillery... all were transported by mules and horses. Ordinary soldiers had almost no load, and the marching speed was very fast!"

"Even if we pursue now, it will be difficult to catch up with them in a short time!"

Another team leader suddenly reminded: "Mr. Heimu, whether you can catch up with the Eighth Route Army that raided Cangyunling is one thing, but whether you can annihilate them after catching up is another problem!"

"Don't forget, the convoy was attacked, and the reserve ammunition carried by the regiment was snatched by the Eighth Route Army. Our ammunition was seriously insufficient, and the only mountain artillery and infantry artillery were gone. They also seized a large number of mortars and heavy machine guns. !"

"Rush to pursue, we don't take advantage of firepower!"
