Chapter 127 127 Shinozuka: Don't believe that Wang Liang can live until next year (4.2k)

In this way, the battle between the two sides intensified.

Light and heavy machine guns, grenades, and mortars greeted frantically.

Even the Heiwei Battalion, which was firmly defending Lijiapo, launched several counter-charges, and the effect produced was very good. The Yoshida and Beiyuan Battalions who were originally attacking were beaten back.

The lost forward position of the Black Tail Squadron was also regained.

The battle lasted for more than two hours. Yoshida and Beiyuan discussed it and planned to suspend the attack, set up camp outside Lijiapo, rest on the spot, and launch the attack again at dawn.

After all, the rapid march all the way, coupled with several hours of fierce fighting, the soldiers were very tired both physically and mentally.

In addition, the sky is so dark that it can be said that you can't see your fingers. In the process of attacking up the mountain, you can't see the road under your feet. This undoubtedly adds a lot of difficulty to the attack.

But how could Wang Liang let the ideas of these two people put into practice?

When the sun breaks, the two sides will definitely discover the big oolong that has arisen.

In the early hours of today, these three brigades of the Japanese army must be exhausted.

The soldiers of Yoshida's and Beiyuan's brigades, organized by their respective officers, had just withdrawn and were about to find a place to sleep.

He was attacked by a team led by Zhou Weiguo who came out of nowhere.

The black-tailed brigade on Lijiapo was not much better either. I thought that the "Eight Routes" down the mountain had died down, so they could breathe a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Zheng Yaoxian operated the Xinzhan megaphone, using Chinese mixed with various Japanese curses and humiliations, which made Heiwei and his subordinates very annoyed.

The soldiers of Yoshida and Beiyuan brigades, who had been constantly being harassed, thought it was the "eight roads" on the mountain who were insulting them, which added fuel to the fire.

In this way, the powder keg was ignited again.

The battle between the two sides started again.

You attack and I defend, you come and I go.

Each exerted all their skills.

The fighting lasted from the night before until five o'clock in the morning the next day.

When the dawn comes and the sky is pale, you will see such a scene.

On the way to the top of Lijiapo Mountain, the corpses of Japanese soldiers were everywhere.

To describe this situation with corpses strewn all over the field is the worst.

The Black Tail Battalion was not much better. The positions and trenches were also filled with dead soldiers.

At this time, the two brigades of Yoshida and Beiyuan finally attacked Lijiapo as they wished.

Before they had time to enjoy the joy of victory, the reality in front of them dealt them the heaviest blow.

When he saw that the enemy who had paid a huge price for casualties and fought desperately all night turned out to be one of his own.

Whether it is Kurobi, Yoshida, Kitahara, or the soldiers, it is difficult to accept it.

"Why? Who can tell me why? We fought all night and smashed the jade. Lijiapo, which was captured by hundreds of soldiers, turned out to be guarded by our own people."

"Ah! Baga! You bastards, they are all a bunch of stupid bastards. We didn't die under the guns of the enemy. We were all shot to death by our own people, a bunch of stupid pigs."

"Why are you hitting us? Tell me?! Why?"

The officers and soldiers on both sides were hysterical, and they simply wrestled together while arguing.

In one night, they all personally experienced countless companions who were either shot or shelled and died tragically in front of them.

It was done by Balu!
It is precisely because of this that they became more crazy and cruel during the battle, and they wanted to avenge their dead companions no matter what.

At dawn, after learning that the person who beat him to death was one of his own.

All the devils fell into a state of madness, and the depression and anger in their hearts could only be vented on the "enemy" opposite.

But at this time, Wang Liang made a move.

call out--

With a red signal flare into the air.

The main force of the 2nd Independent Regiment, which had already arrived at the periphery and was on standby, quickly charged towards Li Jiapo.

When they saw the densely packed Eighth Route Army soldiers rushing up from the bottom of the mountain, the devils who scuffled with their companions hurriedly copied the guys and prepared to fight.

But when they touched the guns, they realized that they had already run out of ammunition and food in the fierce battle last night.

Not a single bullet, not a single grenade was left.

All of them greeted their own people last night.

Now, the devils only have sabers and bayonets left.

Under such circumstances, the devil had no choice but to bite the bullet, put the bayonet on the rifle, and rushed out screaming with anger to fight the Eighth Route Army desperately, fighting hand-to-hand.

The soldiers of the 2nd Independence Regiment would not do what the devils wished to do. They took up their submachine guns and shot out at the devils who were rushing aggressively.

After one shuttle shot, quickly change the magazine, and then continue to chug.

Those who can use guns are determined not to do it.

"Okay, don't worry about the previous things now, we have been tricked by that damn man, what we have to do now is to lead the soldiers out, this is our battle of dignity." Black Tail To Yoshida and Kitahara Road.

Yoshida had already cleaned the saber: "The head of that man cut off by this saber is close to three digits. I don't mind breaking the record again today."

Bei Yuan also said: "Let Balu see how powerful our Japanese Imperial Army is!"

As soon as the three smart people finished their harsh chat, two grenades with green smoke rolled to their feet.

"Grenade!"

"careful!"

The three of them were really taken aback by this sudden situation, and while staring at each other, they quickly flew up and jumped up to avoid it.

But the two grenades thrown by Wang Liang exploded instantly, and they exploded before they could make a move.

With two loud bangs, the three major captains were blown to pieces, and they announced their reimbursement on the spot.

"If you want to do it, do it, there are so many words." Wang Liang spit out thick phlegm directly. He hated this kind of harsh talker the most in his life.

As soldiers such as Ou Xiang and Sun Shulin on the mountain joined the battle group, the three brigades of the Japanese army, which were silent and severely downsized, had no power to parry at all, showing a one-sided situation.

The battle lasted for about two or three hours, and the soldiers of the 2nd Independence Regiment were already cleaning the battlefield.

Just when Wang Liang told the soldiers to be serious when cleaning, except for things like diapers, nothing else should be left.

Brigadier Chen and Li Yunlong came over to congratulate them.

In fact, the brigade commander saw the whole battle.

It wasn't until they saw the bodies of more than 3000 devils at close range that the brigade commander and Li Yunlong believed that it was real and not a dream.

Relying on this coquettish operation, Wang Liang wiped out the devil's four reorganized brigades.

And look at the independent 2nd regiment, because there was no hand-to-hand combat, there were almost no casualties.

Just a few soldiers were too anxious when charging and didn't pay attention to their feet. They tripped over the devil's body and broke their bones.

The brigade commander and Li Yunlong were so shocked that they didn't speak for a long time.

After a long while, he said: "Wang Liang, I congratulate you for getting rich again!"

Facing the congratulations from the two, Wang Liang didn't panic at all, rolled his eyeballs up, and fell down in a daze.

"Head! Head!"

Fortunately, Ou Xiang had quick eyesight and quick hands, and when he saw this, he quickly stepped forward to support Wang Liang.

Feeling that Wang Liang's finger poked his chrysanthemum a few times, Ou Xiang understood it, and quickly explained:
"Brigade Commander, our regiment leader was poisoned by the devils in Wuyi, and has not fully recovered. Last night he stayed up all night."

Brigadier Chen didn't think it was acting, so he signaled Ou Xiang to quickly find soldiers to carry Wang Liang down to rest.

Li Yunlong, on the other hand, muttered a few words: "What a coincidence, he fainted after congratulating his mother? I think this kid is probably just pretending."

Brigadier: "You old boy has a dark heart, everyone looks like a bad guy."

The brigade commander wasn't worried, anyway, Wang Liang couldn't run away, and there was still time to congratulate him when he woke up.

As everyone knows, when the soldiers carried Wang Liang down Lijiapo, his soles were smeared with oil.

As for the spoils captured, without Wang Liang's explicit order, the brigade commander naturally couldn't live to claim them.

One month later

Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, Headquarters of the First Army
Commander Shinozuka Yoshio called the Supreme Military Council.

In the recent period of time, he was scolded bloody by the commander of the North China Garrison Army. If it wasn't for the chief of staff, Fengwen Yamashita, who said a few words for him, he might have been knocked down.

After all, in this short period of one month, the work in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei area has been carried out like a feather.

First, the columns of the Kwantung Army were attacked, and then the two county towns of Lincheng and Wuyi fell one after another, and then the four brigades of Yamazaki, Heowei, Yoshida, and Beiyuan with nearly [-] imperial troops were wiped out.

Just last week, the airfield of the Flying Wing was bombed again. Dozens of bombers were all destroyed, and no one was spared.

The battle in the southern battlefield was tense, and the situation in the rear should have been good. To make the situation like this, Xiaozuka was naturally under a lot of pressure.

What's even more exasperating is that this series of events has a direct relationship with Wang Liang.

They were all done by the 386nd Independent Regiment of the 2th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

This made Yoshio Shinozuka furious:

"Wang Liang, it's Wang Liang again, why is this guy still alive and well? Can anyone here tell me? Why?! What do you all eat?"

Facing Shinozuka's questioning, all the military officers attending the meeting looked down in unison, not daring to raise their heads at all.

Okamoto Temple (co-leader), Chiba Ryoichi (First Army Intelligence Officer), Yamamoto Kazuki, Jing Liangtaro (Director of the First Army Intelligence Department's Strategy Division), Yamashita Takari, Mita Kazuhide (Senior Intelligence Officer of the Kwantung Army Intelligence Bureau) official)
As everyone knows, the minutes of the meeting of the Supreme Military Council of the First Army will appear on Wang Liang's desk in the near future.

Because Fujita Kazuyoshi, who has been appointed as the Chief of Staff of the Supplies Wing and has been awarded the rank of chief accountant, also attended the meeting.

Seeing Shinozuka's angry appearance and the expressions of all the Japanese officers eating Xiang, Fujita, who was in Cao Ying's heart, was very happy in his heart, but he still had to put on a very serious expression so as not to be caught Careful people noticed.

The theme of this meeting was nothing more than Shinozuka cursing and urging the various departments of the First Army to quickly formulate sweeping plans against the resistance forces in their respective jurisdictions.

Seeing that the twelfth lunar month was about to enter, Shinozuka planned to plan a large-scale winter sweep at the end of the year.

It is necessary to give the Eighth Route Army entrenched in the Jinchaji area a little bit of color.

After finishing the arrangement and adjourning the meeting, Shinozuka called Okamoto Terauchi to the office alone.

Because a few days ago, this guy submitted to him an action plan about Wang Liang, and Shinozuka was very interested in this report after reading it.

"Okamoto-kun, I have already read your plan. I really didn't expect that you still have such a trump card in your hand. You didn't take it out until now. You can really hold your breath. The emperor The army has already suffered huge losses here at Wang Liang, and you only thought of using your secret weapon at this time, don't you think it's a bit late?"

Okamoto heard the dissatisfaction in Shinozuka's voice, and quickly stood up and explained:
"Commander, it's like this. This agent code-named civet cat has already made remarkable achievements when he caused heavy damage to the Xingshi guerrilla detachment of the Eighth Route Army."

"According to the original plan, he should have entered a higher-level Eighth Route Army team, but he didn't expect to be reorganized by Wang Liang's team by mistake."

"At that time, the Eighth Route Army already suspected that there was a problem within their guerrilla detachment, and launched a series of powerful screening operations."

"For civet cats, his situation is already very dangerous, so I ordered him to stop working immediately, hibernate and be silent. At the same time, I threw out a fake civet cat that had been in business for a long time to Balu, eliminating the harm that Balu did to him. suspicion."

"With my cooperation, the civet cat's work in Wang Liang's team is doing well and impressively at this stage. It has deeply won Wang Liang's trust, and has won the trust of Wang Liang's independent 2nd regiment. Very high status."

"It is precisely because of this that I feel that the time to activate him has come, so I reported the plan to you."

After listening to Okamotoji's explanation, Yoshio Shinozuka's complexion softened.

Otherwise, he really thought that Okamoto had such a sharp weapon, and he didn't take it out until the imperial army suffered such a huge loss, which is really hateful.

"That's how it turned out. If the effect of the action can really be as written in your plan, Okamoto-kun, you must have contributed a lot. I will definitely ask the military department for a military medal for you. In addition, you His military rank has been above Lieutenant Commander for three years, so it's time to go a step further."

"Just go ahead and do it boldly. If you need anything, just call me. I will fully support you." Shinozuka said.

Hearing Yoshio Shinozuka's words, Okamoto was as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

After Okamoto left, Ryotaro I, head of the Strategy Section of the Intelligence Department of the First Army, and Kazuhide Mita, a senior intelligence officer of the Intelligence Bureau of the Kwantung Army, came again. They also came to report the progress of the work.

After listening to the work reports of the two, Shinozuka Yoshio adjusted his glasses, with a long-lost look of joy on his face.

Just now Okamoto took out his secret weapon Tanuki, and Jing Liang and Mita came to tell themselves that they also put a secret weapon beside Wang Liang.

This made Xiao Zhong very happy. Wang Liang was surrounded by spies placed by the imperial army, and there were even some who had reached the top. Now, is it still necessary to worry about not being able to kill Wang Liang?

Can't die anymore.

Shinozuka immediately instructed Irataro and Mita Kazuhide to continue their work, and the First Army will go all out to provide support.

Under this double insurance, he did not believe that Wang Liang could live until next year.
