Chapter 538: Darkness Chen Cang

A few hours passed in a hurry. The time soon came to one o'clock in the morning, the most sleepy time....The more than 4,000 commanders and fighters of the advance detachment, under the reminder of their respective commanders, slowly woke up from their sleep, began to organize their equipment, and made final preparations for the upcoming battle... And just when more than 4,000 commanders and fighters, under the cover of the dark night and the rugged terrain, slowly approached the military camp of the puppet army. At the same time, a squadron that was arranged around the barracks and was responsible for patrolling and guarding, more than 200 little devils, also reached their most sleepy time... After a day of rapid marching, they were already exhausted. After several hours of patrolling and guarding, he was already too tired to open his eyes. At this moment, they are enduring the constant attack of sleepiness, fighting their spirits, staring at their own eyes without any spirit, observing every move around the military camp....

And just behind the bushes less than fifty meters away from a little devil sentry. Liu Xiaogang, the deputy captain of the advance detachment, was holding up the telescope in his hand, staring motionlessly at the every move of several little devils in front of him. When the little devil in front of him, because of the constant sleepiness, began to nod his head constantly and slowly fell asleep. The corners of Liu Xiaogang's mouth immediately showed a hint of a smile. Then, facing the troops behind him, he made a gesture to attack immediately... Suddenly, several figures quickly flashed out of the grass. Then, under the cover of thick thatch and bushes, he clenched his weapon with both hands, and slowly approached the little devil sentry in front of him... Fifty meters,. Forty meters, thirty meters... Soon, several special combat team members with crossbows in their hands, under the cover of thatch, quietly moved, and there was only a distance of more than twenty meters away from the sentry. And at the same time, a few slight sounds came from the side of several team members, followed by several crossbow arrows emitting bursts of cold light, quickly flying into the sky, accurately shooting at the location of several sentries..."In just the blink of an eye, several crossbow arrows emitting cold light were accurately inserted into the necks of several sentries. Several sentinels who had slowly fallen asleep because of the constant sleepiness had not yet discovered their enemies, and they didn't even have time to react, so they fell unwillingly in a pool of blood and turned into a soft corpse....

As several sentries were quietly eliminated, a squadron hidden in the rear, hundreds of team members no longer had any scruples, and quickly jumped up from the grass. Then, at his fastest speed, along a breakthrough that had just been opened, he wanted to break through the interior of the military camp and began his own massacre.

And this kind of battle process is not only happening in this one place... In the other three directions of the Yue army barracks, the special combat team members of each squadron, after quietly eliminating the little devil sentries standing in front of them, began to use the daggers and crossbow arrows in their hands to continuously shoot the little devil in front of them in small teams....In less than 10 minutes, the entire sky above the Yue army barracks was filled with a strong smell of blood. At the same time, more than 1,000 devil soldiers, under the song of nearly 1,000 special combat members, there was only less than one squad of devil soldiers left around the army headquarters....

"Crossbow arrows are ready....put..."Facing the three tents in the middle of the entire barracks, there was almost a small group of devil soldiers, who were on guard alone. In order to avoid startling the snake, the captain Liu Xiaogang did not feel any melancholy, and immediately decided to use the special combat team's unique equipment, the bow and crossbow, for the final battle... As the word "release" was said by the captain Liu Xiaogang, hundreds of special combat team members pulled the trigger of the crossbow in their hands at the same time... Suddenly, nearly a thousand crossbows, each with five crossbow arrows, a total of more than 4,000 crossbow arrows, like an impenetrable rain of arrows, shot overwhelmingly towards the three tents in the middle of the encirclement and around the tents, a small team of devil soldiers..."Ah... Baga, enemy attack..."In the face of the overwhelming rain of arrows that suddenly flew around, although there was no special accuracy, it was the density of the arrow rain. Although, the dense rain of arrows can no longer be the first time to eliminate the dozens of little devils left on the battlefield. However, a few thousand crossbow arrows are enough to beat the remaining dozens of devil soldiers into hedgehogs, and then make their warriors lose their combat effectiveness... Just when the screams of the devils reached the ears of the warriors, the warriors, who were already ready to go, drew the daggers at their waists after shooting the last crossbow arrow in the bow. It's like a hungry wolf that finds its prey one by one, and quickly pounces on the little devil in front of him... A dagger that exudes cold light, like a training for the life of the first little devil, constantly cutting the neck of the little devil... In less than ten seconds, in the encirclement, dozens of little devils were all cut throats and turned into soft corpses... As for the commander of the army in the three tents, Shaotian Nakasa, when he was lying on his marching bed, dreaming of meritorious service and promotion. The dense rain of arrows was overwhelmingly inserted into his body....In just a blink of an eye, Shaotian Nakasa's body was filled with crossbow arrows... As for Nakasa himself, he has also turned into a soft corpse ....

"Captain, the little devils in the encirclement, all destroyed. In addition, we found a Nakasa officer in the tent, but he was shot directly by our crossbow arrows. As for the radio station of the Yue Army, it is still in a state of shutdown. If nothing else, the little devil operator has not sent any news to the outside world...."Squadron leader Wang Hong, with a trace of blood on his face, stood in front of the deputy captain Liu Xiaogang and reported....

"Good, good play... Captain Wang, as you know, the key to our operation this time is the issue of secrecy. Order all squadrons to continue to search for the remnants of the enemy, and be sure to ensure that there is no single devil alive in the entire barracks in the shortest possible time. In addition, collect all the military uniforms, weapons and ammunition of the little devils for me...."Regarding the results achieved by his first brigade, Liu Xiaogang was excited, but he did not forget his mission, and ordered Wang Hong in front of him.

Compared with the sneak attack of the first brigade on the military camp, the sneak attack of the second and third brigades was obviously much easier. In the face of the encirclement, there were hardly any vigilant more than 3,000 Manchurian troops. The two brigades, with more than 3,000 commanders and fighters, barely encountered any problems, and easily rushed into the barracks of the Manchurian Army. With more than 3,000 commanders and fighters, facing more than 3,000 Manchurian troops, the final result can be imagined. In less than half an hour, more than 3,000 Manchurian troops were killed by the bayonets and daggers of the fighters, and all went to hell....

Taking a deep breath of the smell of blood in the air, as the battle ended, Commander Liu Hua, under the leadership of Liu Xiaogang and other commanders, slowly walked into the barracks full of corpses... Walking through the bloody barracks, the group soon entered the clean and clean headquarters of the army... And the commander Liu Hua sat in the position that should have belonged to the commander of the puppet army, Shaotian Zhongzuo, waiting for his confidant Liu Xiaogang to report the specific results to himself....

"Commander, tonight's night attack can be said to be the biggest battle fought by our advance detachment since its establishment, and it is also the one that has achieved the greatest results. According to statistics, a total of 32 fighters were injured in the entire advance detachment, and no one died. As for the results achieved by the troops, none of the more than 4,000 puppet troops escaped the net, and all of them were wiped out. Among them, our advance detachment wiped out a total of 1,539 people, including a commander of Zhongzuo and a captain of Shaozuo. In addition, we also eliminated a total of 3,129 Manchurian troops, including a major general, a division commander, a colonel chief of staff, and three colonel regimental commanders...."Seeing the commander's expectant gaze, Liu Xiaogang replied with an excited face.

"Good, good job. As for the weapons, in the next operation, these weapons can play a huge role, especially the military uniforms of these puppet soldiers..."Liu Hua nodded with satisfaction, and then asked.

"Commander, don't worry. Because we launched a special operation, the more than 4,000 puppet troops were wiped out by us before they had time to fire a single shot, and almost all of them were ground necks, so the equipment of the more than 4,000 puppet armies, except for dozens of military uniforms, was pierced by our crossbow arrows. The rest of the equipment was all captured by us intact..."Liu Xiaogang replied confidently..."Great, with these equipment and military uniforms, our next actions will be guaranteed." This time, everyone has made a great contribution. When the time comes, I will personally ask the political commissar and every commander and fighter who participated in the battle tonight. However, although our advance detachment was victorious in tonight's battle, we still could not rest, because we were now in the middle of the heavy forces of the army, and an accident could lead to the annihilation of the whole army. So, tonight, there's a lot of work to do. How about it, is there any problem with the soldiers..."After a short period of excitement, Liu Hua's face slowly became serious. Then, he said to the commanders in the tent: "Commander, you can rest assured, the soldiers have absolutely no problems. Just now almost bloodless fought such a big victory, now everyone's morale can be said to be very high, what task do you have, although I don't know, we promise to complete..."Just after Liu Hua's words were finished, Wang Ping, the captain of the second brigade, said confidently...

"Very good, the mission is like this, now we are surrounded by little devils, so we must dispose of the thousands of corpses of the puppet army in the military camp before dawn. Now I order that the first brigade be responsible for more than 1,000 little devils, collect all the weapons and uniforms of the little devils, and bury the corpses on the spot. The 2nd and 3rd Brigades were responsible for more than 3,000 Manchurian troops. Remember, in the process of burial, there must be no flaws in the way. How, are there any problems? Glancing at the commanders at all levels in front of him, Liu Hua ordered.

"No," the commanders replied in unison.

"Very good, in addition to this accident, there is another task, that is, before dawn tomorrow, the entire advance detachment, all the commanders and fighters will change into the captured puppet army uniforms and equipment. From tomorrow onwards, we will pretend to be a puppet army, and dedicate it to the little devils to come to a dark Chen Cang, and then come to a fish in troubled waters, and finally, meet with the Anti-Union in the Mengshan area....Okay, if there is no problem, we will dismiss the meeting now..."Liu Hua nodded, and finally said....

Early the next morning, the advance detachment, which had already finished preparing and changed into the military uniforms and equipment of the puppet army, began to prepare for the marching breakfast in an orderly manner, and ate the first stable meal since the expedition. Then, under Liu Xiaogang's order, he drove more than 20 trucks and walked on the highway and began to drive towards his next target, Tonghua County.

Along the way, the soldiers relied on the military uniforms on their bodies, coupled with Liu Xiaogang's skillful language, and captured official documents. In the face of the insect checkpoint set up by the army on the highway, he almost didn't encounter any problems, and he successfully walked out of Anshan, which angered the territory of Tonghua County... Entering the territory of Tonghua County, because of Shaotian Zhongzuo's father, in the face of the kind invitation of the supreme commander of the Tonghuan Army, Liu Xiaogang, who has always only taken advantage of the advantages and did not suffer losses, did not have any melancholy, and once again extorted ten truckloads of a large number of military supplies from the hands of the Tonghua County Army... In the end, the group, with a large number of ten trucks of supplies, slowly walked out of Tonghua County and entered the final goal of the advance detachment, the Mengshan area, under the farewell of the supreme commander of the Tonghua County Army. On the march, I looked at the convoy behind me, the ten extra trucks and the various military supplies loaded in the carriages. Liu Xiaogang's heart was almost happy, and he couldn't help but exclaim at the commander beside him: "Commander, I really didn't expect that the little devil was so easy to deceive." So easily got so much material and ammunition from their hands..."

"Well, speaking of which, these are all your credits, and you have extorted so many materials and ammunition from the hands of the army without blood. However, however, the Anti-Japanese Federation has been surrounded by heavy troops of the Japanese army for half a year, and I believe that after half a year of bloody fighting, the Anti-Japanese Federation has almost reached the point of running out of ammunition and food. Therefore, the military supplies and ammunition on these dozens of trucks are tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow for them. Therefore, along the way, we also have to collect all kinds of military supplies for the Anti-Japanese Federation as much as possible, and help them as much as possible..."Liu Hua nodded and replied..."Commander, I know. However, now that we have entered the Mengshan area, we may rush into the area of war at any time. Commander, what should we do next. Do you continue to march with a swagger, or do you hide on the spot..."Regarding Commander Liu Hua's words, Liu Xiaogang nodded thoughtfully, and then continued to ask.

"Hehe, the dark Chen Cang we prepared for the little devil has already been used, and the next thing is to fish in troubled waters. He ordered the troops to relax their vigilance and report any situation immediately. In addition, inform the communication board and use the radio and code books we have captured to send a telegram to their forward headquarters. Let's just say that we have arrived in the war zone, please give us the specific combat mission that we don't know..."On the topic, Liu Hua's face immediately became extremely serious and replied.

At this moment, in the forward command headquarters, the supreme commander of the front, that is, the commander of the 24th Division of the Kwantung Army, Lieutenant General Heiyan Yisheng, was frowning his brows, looking at the combat sand table in front of him without blinking, observing the latest situation on the battlefield. At the same time, his eyes, looking at the door of the command from time to time, seemed to be anxiously waiting for something?

What is the problem that can make the commander of the 100,000-strong army, Hei Yan, win the lottery, the reason is very simple. Lieutenant General Heiyan commanded an army of 100,000 troops, and in the Mengshan area, the total strength of encirclement and suppression was less than two forgotten people, and the poorly equipped Anti-Japanese Federation had been for half a year.

Although, in the past six months, with his own efforts, he has compressed all the control areas of the Anti-Union into the deep mountains and old forests of Changbai Mountain. At the same time, in the process of fighting, nearly 10,000 anti-coalition troops were eliminated, and even their commander-in-chief, Yang Jingyu, almost died in his own hands.

However, while achieving these small victories, they also paid a huge price in casualties. In particular, several infantry divisions of the Manchurian Army, which followed him, were almost crushed with a single blow in the face of the fierce and vicious resistance to the United Nations. What's more, in this half-year-long battle, he consumed a lot of scarce military supplies and troops... And the final result is that the Anti-United Nations has still not been completely annihilated. The entire Anti-Union Armed Forces, the remaining thousands of elite soldiers, under the leadership of Yang Jingyu, relied on the strength of the terrain around Changbai Mountain, began to fight guerrilla warfare with themselves, constantly consuming the vitality of the Imperial Army of the Great Yue Empire... In the face of such a bad situation, Lieutenant General Kuroiwa, as the commander-in-chief, can be said to have received many criticisms from the commander of the Kwantung Army, Commander General Umezu Mijiro. However, just when he thought that because of his poor command of the war, his position would be replaced. An unexpected event changed his fate, and he continued to serve as the commander-in-chief of the front, commanding more troops to join the ranks of the battle... And this accident is about the Eighth Route Army will send the Northeast Field Army to advance into the three northeastern provinces and create a new base area three months later. In the face of a wolf-like army of 100,000 people, coupled with the threat of the Soviet Red Army in the west, the entire Kwantung Army can be said to be in a mess.
