Chapter 587: The Hunt Begins
As soon as the broadcast ended, the Japanese army began to move.
The 10th and 16th Divisions each sent one infantry squadron into Hanyang City, and the 13th Division and the 116th Division each sent one infantry squadron into Hankou City.
The 1st Squadron of the 1st Brigade of the 10th Infantry Wing, to which Jun Nakamura belongs, had the honor of being the first hunting party to enter Hanyang!
The rules of hunting operations are completely different from those of regular warfare.
Conventional warfare does not aim to kill the Chinese army, but pursues the fastest possible breakthrough of the defensive line, the occupation of positions, and then forcing the Chinese army to surrender!
The only task of hunting operations is to kill Chinese soldiers!
Therefore, after entering the urban area of Hanyang, the 1st Infantry Squadron of Jun Nakamura did not rush forward as quickly as before, and the two of them quickly dispersed in a group!
Occupy the northernmost building in Hanyang city in a linear pattern, and then search forward!
Soon, the buildings within a hundred meters of the north side of the adjacent city were searched, and no national troops were found!
This was already expected by Nakamura, because whether in Hanyang or Hankou, the Chinese army would never defend buildings within a hundred meters of the edge of the city!
Because the buildings within this 100-meter range are within the striking range of the Japanese army's various direct firepower, it is very difficult to defend!
So, it's safe within a hundred meters!
After coming out of the 100-meter range, Nakamura Jun immediately began to become vigilant, and at the same time signaled his comrade-in-arms Hasebe Jio with his eyes to increase his vigilance.
Hasebe nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Nakamura Jun probed slightly from behind the ridge where he was hiding, scanned the surroundings very vigilantly, observed for five minutes, and made sure that there were no Chinese soldiers moving within fifty meters, then jumped up, first turned around and waved to Hasebe Jio, and then jumped to the roof of another two-story house in front of him.
After landing on the ground, Nakamura turned to the back of the roof ridge and erected the 38 large cover at the same time.
Immediately afterward, Jio Hasebe also jumped down and lay down beside Jun Nakamura to rack up the rifle.
There was silence all around, nothing was going on, only on the street below, the machine gun team was following! However, when they were about fifty meters away from them, they stopped moving forward.
After waiting for another two minutes to make sure that there were no Chinese soldiers around, Nakamura slowly slid down the roof, slid to the edge of the roof, and then reached out to grab the eaves, and then flipped down.
When I went down, I was facing the window and found that the window was hidden.
Nakamura reached out and gently pushed the window open, and then Nakamura quickly flashed to the side of the window.
The expected gunshots didn't go off, and Nakamura Jun waited a few more seconds before he dodged and jumped into the window, and when he entered, he found that the room was a mess, and Nakamura Jun could see at a glance that there had been a battle here!
"Safety!" Jun Nakamura stuck his head out of the window and called out, and Jio Hasebe followed.
As soon as Hasebe jumped in, he began to search around the room, even poking at the walls with a bayonet.
Jun Nakamura took out his cigarette case and asked, "Hasebe-kun, what are you looking for in a hurry?" ”
Hasebe Jinan said: "I'm looking for a secret door or something, let's move on through the secret door!" ”
"Keep going? No hurry! Nakamura Jun waved his hand, handed over a cigarette, and said lightly, "Come, smoke a cigarette first to relieve fatigue!" ”
Hasebe Jio didn't reach out to pick it up, and frowned: "Nakamura-kun, are you still in the mood to smoke at this time?" ”
After a pause, Hasebe Jio said again: "Let's quickly find a passage so that we can continue to search and move forward, otherwise if we move slowly, we will let other teams rush to the front!" ”
"Slow is slow." Nakamura Jundao, "Are you still afraid that the Shina army will be killed by other groups?" ”
"Uh......" Hasebe Jinan was suddenly suffocated when he heard this, yes, there are more than 100,000 troops in China, and it is impossible to be killed by other groups, so there is no need to worry at all.
At that moment, Hasebe Jio also sat on the floor and took the cigarette from Nakamura Jun's hand.
Nakamura took another one for himself, struck a match and lit it, then took a deep breath.
Feeling the smoke rolling in his lungs, Nakamura Jun couldn't help but sigh pleasantly, cool!
After a long time, Nakamura Jun said to Hasebe Jio again: "Hase-kun, you are in a hurry to earn a bonus, so you can go back to Himeji one day earlier to marry your Sachiko, I can understand this, but you have to think clearly, you have worked hard to earn the bonus, and you have to have the life to go back to Himeji, otherwise your Sachiko will only be cheap to other men!" ”
"Hello!" Hasebe nodded heavily and said, "Nakamura-kun, thank you for the reminder!" ”
Nakamura Jun waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's nothing, who made the two of us fellow villagers." ”
While the two were smoking, gunshots began to sound in front of them, but the sound of gunfire was a little sparse, and the battle between the two sides did not seem to be very fierce.
But after a few minutes, the gunfire began to intensify.
There was even the sound of machine gun fire, as well as the explosion of grenades.
Hasebe Jio couldn't help but look back at Nakamura Jun, but Nakamura didn't mean to get up at all, so he immediately sat back with half of his buttocks suspended.
After a long time, after a cigarette was smoked, Toshito Nakamura finally got up.
Patting his buttocks, Nakamura Jun said, "Hasebe-kun, it's time to work!" ”
"Hello!" Hasebe quickly snuffed out the cigarette butt in the sole of his shoe, and then jumped up with his rifle in his hand.
Jun Nakamura and Jio Hasebe had just gotten up when there was a sound of footsteps on the second floor of the house opposite the one-story wall!
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Nakamura Jun's eyes immediately revealed murderous intent, and he quickly glanced at Hasebe Jio, and Hasebe Jio dodged and hid behind a standing cabinet.
Shunya Nakamura hid behind another cabinet.
As soon as the two of them dodged, the thin wooden wall was kicked open.
Immediately afterward, two Chinese soldiers rushed in with rifles!
The next moment, Jun Nakamura and Jio Hasebe flashed their guns at the same time, only to hear two gunshots from the horn, and the two Chinese soldiers who had just rushed in screamed and fell in a pool of blood.
"Yo Xi, 100 yen is already in hand!" Hasebe immediately shouted excitedly.
Nakamura Jun smiled, where is this? On the other hand, he pulled out a bayonet and took off the collar badge of one of the Chinese soldiers and threw it into the satchel he carried with him!
This is also the rule set by the East Kurenomiya Twist Higashi, only with the collar badge to receive the award!
Even if you kill a hundred Chinese soldiers, if you don't get the collar badge, you won't get a penny! On the other hand, if you get a 100 pin, even if you don't kill a Chinese soldier, you can still get a bonus of at least 10,000 yen!
