Chapter 21: Receiving the Enemy Li Jiapu (2)

Tang Cheng did not have a telescope and could not confirm the casualty figures of this group of Japanese soldiers, but with the return of Lao Dongbei and the ammunition man, Tang Cheng still calculated the approximate casualties of the Japanese army. "Captain Song, according to my calculations, after two ambushes by this Japanese squad, the number of soldiers they still have combat effectiveness should be about the same as ours. However, they still have an advantage in weapons and ammunition, and the next thing is to depend on the ability of these members of your team. ”

"Captain, it's not good, there's smoke coming out of the direction of Li's shop." Tang Cheng was discussing with Song Tieshan how to arrange manpower, and a guerrilla under Song Tieshan's tree ran over in a panic. Walking up the hill to the top of the slope and looking in the direction of Lijiapu, Song Tieshan's sight appeared several thick smokes, although it was almost 2 miles away from Lijiapu, but Song Tieshan seemed to have seen the villagers in the village who were running away in panic.

"Company Commander Tang, what should I do?" Song Tieshan wanted to say that he would bring his own people back to help Lijiapu, but the group of Japanese soldiers who attacked Xishui was only more than a mile away, and if he really took away the whole guerrillas, who would resist the attack of the Japanese army? What's more, just seeing the Li family shop smoke, I don't know anything about the specific situation, if he rashly leads the team back to Li Jiapu, Song Tieshan doesn't have to think about it, Tang Cheng will definitely withdraw from the battle with his people.

Although Song Tieshan did not make his plans clear, his thoughts had already been expressed on his face, and Tang Cheng also glanced in the direction of Lijiapu a few times, and then said, "Since something happened to Lijiapu, then Captain Song, you should take someone back to take a look, but there are Japanese troops behind us." If Captain Song can leave me with 5 people, I'll try to block them here, and whether I can block them will be the first two words, but at least I can buy you some time. ”

Tang Cheng offered to resist the Japanese attack here, and Song Tieshan, who was anxious about Lijiapu, did not procrastinate, leaving Tang Cheng with five guerrillas with good marksmanship, and he hurried to Lijiapu with the remaining dozen or so guerrillas. The 5 members of the Han family were also in Li's shop, and Tang Cheng wanted Liu Shi to go back with him, but Liu Shi was reluctant to leave, so Tang Cheng had to give up. The number of people was small, Tang Cheng's original blocking plan needed to be revised, and he didn't care whether the five people left by Song Tieshan were happy or not, Tang Cheng called them all together.

"Everyone has also seen the current situation, the current situation is not very favorable to us, although the two ambushes caused some casualties to the Japanese army, but we only have 8 people here now, and the Japanese army has at least 40 people, anyway, we are at a disadvantage." Before Tang Cheng's words were finished, some of the five guerrillas already showed disdain, if it weren't for the fact that Lao Dongbei was still here, maybe someone would have jumped out to accuse Tang Cheng of being cowardly.

Tang Cheng could only pretend to turn a blind eye to the guerrillas' reactions, and when he got up, he wanted to say that fighting could not only be fought with blood, but also on strength and strategy, but he also knew that these guerrillas would not really listen to their own national army. "I know you're not convinced, why do you want to listen to my command if you're not convinced." Tang Cheng glanced at them with a smile, "I don't want to get up and make this trip to the troubled water, it was your Captain Song who begged hard, so I reluctantly commanded you temporarily, if it weren't for this, with your combat effectiveness, I wouldn't even have the interest in taking a look." ”

"What did you say?" Huo Ran, the disdainful guerrilla just now, got up and glared at Tang Cheng, although the remaining four guerrillas were not the same as him, but the anger in their eyes had already indicated what they were thinking. Tang Cheng's words just now did make them angry, the guerrillas are an anti-Japanese team under the leadership of ***, but Tang Cheng and they are indeed members of the national army, and the Kuomintang is in a hostile situation, so when they even take these guerrillas to look at Tang Cheng and them, they also have the eyes of white bandits and cubs.

They were already strictly wary of Tang Cheng, and Mengzi's attitude towards Tang Cheng was the attitude of other guerrillas, who would listen to Tang Cheng's words and say that they were worthless, and a few guerrillas who didn't want to stay immediately became angry. "You Kuomintang reactionary, you make it clear, otherwise the gun in Lao Tzu's hand won't know which one you are?" The guerrilla who stood up and glared at Tang Cheng pulled the bolt of his gun and put the bullet on fire, and his posture looked like he was about to shoot Tang Cheng immediately.

Several other guerrillas were armed with guns, some were blocking between Tangcheng and Lao Dongbei, and one of them had already reached out and grabbed Liu Shishi's arm, and a fight seemed inevitable. "So I said that you guys are too bad, there is something wrong with Lijiapu, there are Japanese troops coming here, you still have time to play infighting, when you ambushed the Japanese army in Laojun Temple just now, why didn't you have such a move and reaction?" Lao Dongbei and Liu Shishi didn't move at all, and Tang Cheng only stretched out his hand and pulled away the muzzle of the gun on his head, and the understatement and actions made these guerrillas confused.

"If you want to stop the Japanese soldiers here, you have to obey my orders completely, otherwise we will go our separate ways here, I have no interest in taking my brother's life to play games with you." Tang Cheng's sight had already appeared in the Japanese army's khaki uniform, and after sorting out the dead and wounded, the Japanese army finally marched along the dirt road. "30 rounds of ammunition for each person, then scatter and find a good ambush place, when you hear that I am shooting here, you will fire, remember, you had better shoot two shots and change positions, otherwise you will be targeted by the Japanese grenadiers."

At the moment of the great enemy, Tang Cheng didn't have the extra effort to talk nonsense with these guys, just divided the bullets left by Song Tieshan to them equally, and then drove them to scatter on the mound. "Let's go, it's not safe here, let's find a new place to hide." After driving away the guerrillas left behind by Song Tieshan, Tang Cheng muttered to Lao Dongbei, and then took the two of them and the light machine gun to touch the earthen hill and went to an ambush position that he had long been optimistic about.

The Japanese army came, and after two ambushes in succession, Yamamoto still marched towards Li Jiapu, although his squad had lost 17 people, plus 7 seriously wounded and incapacitated, the actual number of soldiers who could still fight had dropped to 35. Although there were more than a dozen lightly wounded among these 35 people, the pride of the imperial soldiers made him have to march towards Li Jiapu, and Yamamoto Yong continued to send the top soldiers, but this time there were only 2 top soldiers, and at the same time as the combat strength of the squad declined, he could no longer send a dozen people to serve as the top soldiers at a time.

The guerrillas scattered on the mound hid in their dug bunkers, and watched with their own eyes the two sharp soldiers of the Japanese army ascend to the mound from far and near, and some people could not help but shoot and kill the two Japanese soldiers, but there were still dozens of Japanese soldiers under the mound and the guerrillas who wanted to shoot could only give up for the time being. The two spearheads sent by Isamu Yamamoto finally went to the mound, and after a general look at the mound, the spearheads waved a safe flag to Isamu Yamamoto under the mound, and Isamu Yamamoto, who was still worried, was finally relieved this time.

In any case, Yamamoto's team finally climbed the mound, reached the edge of the slope of the mound, and before Yamamoto gave the order to rest, the exhausted soldiers all put down the stretchers and sat down on the spot. The Japanese soldiers, who were concerned about their image, would also find stones to wipe clean and sit down, and those who carried the stretchers all the way simply walked on the ground in large characters. A Cao Chang found a relatively clean stone for Yamamoto Yong and wiped it with his sleeve before beckoning him to sit down, Yamamoto Yong didn't shirk too much, and sat down after nodding with a chuckle.

He was really tired, and it was not easy to maintain his grace after a long journey and climbing such a steep mountain, although he had been in good shape since he was a child. Out of the instinct of a soldier, Yamamoto Yong only got up after a little and began to observe the surrounding terrain first, he would not miss the smoke rising from Li's shop, and it was precisely because of this that he ordered the team to rest here temporarily.

The mound under the feet of Yamamoto Yong looks very large from time to time, and the side that he climbed over when he came was quite gentle, with a few gentle slopes undulating, but the other side of the mound is a cliff, and the side facing Li's shop is also very steep, but if you are careful, you can still walk. Yamamoto on the mound, looking far away, beyond the mound, is a plain, where crops should have been planted, but now they are overgrown with weeds. Looking across the plain into the distance, only the smoking Li Jiapu remained, and although Yamamoto didn't know what happened to the Li Jiapu, he knew that the smoke had saved them a lot of trouble.

Yamamoto found a few broken steps with blood stains on the mound, which should have been left by the people who ambushed him with goods, according to Yamamoto Moto's speculation, these people were originally going to continue ambushing themselves here, perhaps it was because of the thick smoke of Li's shop that they left in a hurry and gave up the attack on their team. Thinking about these things, Yamamoto Yong, who was originally very depressed, suddenly felt better, if it comes to fighting on the plains, the other party is three or five hundred people, and the imperial soldiers under his command also have the ability to defeat them in a battle.

Looking into the distance from the earthen hill, the river that passed by when coming meanders and sparkles in the sun, like a jade belt, this qiē is a full pastoral scenery. Yamamoto couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the scenery in front of him, and he couldn't help but think back to the scenery of his hometown, how similar the scenery of his hometown was to what he was in front of.

In his mind, his wife, Mieko's delicate and lovely smile, her light and angry expression, her eyes as deep as the sea, and her gentle and sweet voice came to his mind. Maybe after completing the mission assigned by the wing commander, he has the opportunity to bring Mieko to China, as a young officer of the occupation army, how can he not be accompanied by his wife.
