Chapter 37: A Crushing Victory

Compared with Tang Cheng's indifference, Song Tieshan's joy at this time was particularly obvious, after all, he killed dozens of Japanese soldiers with a few casualties, and this was the first time after Song Tieshan formed a guerrilla force. The joy on Song Tieshan's face had already been seen by Tang Cheng, this was just a small group of Japanese troops that had infiltrated the river, if the guerrillas were facing the Japanese troops who had crossed the river as a whole, I don't know if Song Tieshan could still laugh.

After all, the guerrillas were not regular anti-Japanese troops, and Song Tieshan's formation of the guerrillas had only fought with a few bandits around him, and it was only in the last half a month that he had fought against the sporadic Japanese troops who had crossed the river. Counting the Yamamoto squad that was besieged and killed yesterday, the total number of Japanese soldiers killed by the guerrillas in Lijiapu has exceeded 100, and such a record is placed in Song Tieshan's original troops, which will also be reported directly to Yan'an.

Tang Cheng did not go to attack Song Tieshan at this time, because Lao Dongbei found a Japanese soldier who was still alive in the muddy water, and Tang Cheng wanted to confirm his guess from the mouth of the Japanese soldier. Kitano, who was shot twice in the body, was rescued from Liu Shishi's bayonet by the old Tohoku, the Japanese soldier who had been incapacitated by a bullet in the thigh did not know what he was going to face next, and at the moment when the bayonet reached his body, Kitano never hoped that he could live like now, instead of becoming a corpse soaked in muddy water like the rest of the team.

"Name your name and unit number." Kitano, who was dragged into the courtyard by the old northeast from the muddy water, instantly recovered from a state of confusion, and the voice of the question was a standard Kyoto accent, and Kitano, a dying person, looked up with wide eyes as if he had grasped a life-saving straw. After Kitano saw the person standing in front of him clearly, the joy in his eyes immediately turned into disappointment and even confusion and horror, because the person standing in front of him at this moment was not a Japanese, but a Shina who had been the enemy of the team just now.

Kitano knelt in the wet courtyard, Tang Cheng stood in front of Kitano with his waist straight, the two looked at each other like this, and the old northeast who was standing next to Tang Cheng looked bored, so he simply called the iron bull guarding the gate of the courtyard and gave a low order, and ran out of the yard to clean up the battlefield. "Name your name and unit number." Seeing that the Japanese soldier stared at him and didn't speak, Tang Cheng had no choice but to repeat the question he had just asked, and Kitano, who was kneeling on the ground, became a little angry.

"Are you the commander of this garrison?" Kitano, who had no weapon in his hand, did not intend to answer the young man's inquiry, but wanted to change the topic and delay time, while looking left and right from the corner of his eye to find the weapon in his hand. Kitano does not have the so-called bushido spirit in his body, and between life and death, he will not hesitate to choose life. Looking for a weapon that can control the enemy, just because Kitano wants to take the opportunity to control the person in front of him or the Japanese-speaking Shina, in his opinion, such a Japanese-speaking Shina person should be an important person, even if he is not the commander of the defenders, as long as he controls him, he has hope for life.

The chopping wood that greeted his eyes made Kitano happy in his heart, although it was just a chopping wood, but as long as Kitano was willing, he could use this chopping wood with sharp horns to pierce this person's neck. With the most natural but careful movements, Kitano's shot right hand was only a slap away from the chopping wood, and he could now grab the chopping wood with just one hand. Tang Cheng, who was standing in front of Kitano, didn't seem to notice Kitano's small movements, and just talked to Kitano in Japanese, trying to get more information from Kitano's mouth.

But just when Kitano was complacent and secretly reached out to grab the chopping wood, Tang Cheng, who was holding his hands behind his back, suddenly turned around and stopped beside Kitano, and the chopping wood that was like a life-saving straw for Kitano was being trampled under Tang Cheng's feet at this time. Chopping wood was trampled under Tang Cheng's feet, Kitano's outstretched hand stiffened and couldn't be retracted, the blood in his whole body seemed to have surged to the top of his head, Kitano had only one thought in his heart, his small movements were discovered by the other party.

Since he had already seen through the other party's thoughts, Kitano simply didn't do anything, and directly opened his arms sideways and hugged Tang Cheng's thighs and shook them hard, he wanted to knock Tang Cheng to the ground first, and then snatch the short gun on the opponent's waist to control the situation. With a "snap" gunshot, Kitano, who could touch Tang Cheng's thigh, seemed to have been punched hard, and the whole person fell backwards to the ground, and the bloody arrow from Kitano's left shoulder dragged a long bloody mark on the mud.

The sudden appearance of gunfire in the courtyard attracted the iron bull guarding the gate, and seeing that Tang Cheng was fine, the guerrillas who had already flattened their rifles just glanced at it, and then lowered the muzzle of their guns according to Tang Cheng's instructions. Kitano, who was shot in the left shoulder, screamed on the ground, and Tang Cheng, who was carrying a shell gun in his hand, looked at him coldly, "I said, as long as you tell everything you know, I won't kill you, but you shouldn't come to challenge my patience, if there is another time, I will directly blow your head." ”

Tang Cheng's warning full of murderous intent made Kitano dare not think about those careful thoughts anymore, his shoulder has been bleeding, if he is not dressed and treated in time, he may die here because of the bleeding. Kitano, who was shot at close range by Tang Cheng, was honest this time, and he answered all questions about Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng was not a decent man, and when he figured out the answer he wanted, he directly shot through Kitano's neck, and then stood cold and watched Kitano twitch and die in a pool of blood.

Although Tie Niu, who was in charge of guarding the door, couldn't understand what Tang Cheng and the Japanese soldier were talking about, when Tang Cheng finally shot through the neck of the Japanese soldier, Tie Niu was startled, and couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat in his heart, saying that this Tang Company Commander looked very old, but he was really ruthless. Xu saw what Tie Niu was thinking, and when Tang Cheng walked out of the courtyard, he suddenly said, "They are Japanese soldiers who have come to invade China, and if they kill one, they will lose one, and they don't need to say anything about faith." ”

Most of what Tang Cheng said, Tie Niu couldn't understand most of it, but he understood what it meant to kill one less one, so he smiled and nodded yes. Got the answer he wanted from the mouth of the Japanese soldier just now, Tang Cheng was not in a very good mood now, stepping on the muddy water and slowly moving forward, Tang Cheng went to the entrance of the village to watch the guerrillas clean up the battlefield. The Japanese soldier just said clearly that they were only infiltration troops ordered to cross the river, and the establishment of the troops was only a small formation, but there was more than one small infiltration force like them.

Seeing Tang Cheng appear in the village, Lao Dongbei, who was holding a pack of bullets, bared his teeth and said excitedly: "Company commander, I didn't expect this little devil to be so unbeaten." I just counted the corpses of the little devils with the surname Song, counting the 6 devil soldiers I killed in the north of the village, we killed 32 devil soldiers tonight, which is half a squad of the devil troops. ”

Glancing coldly at Lao Dongbei, Tang Cheng said coldly: "The Japanese army's field battles are indeed powerful, but that's because they have planes in the sky, tanks on the ground, and light and heavy artillery support. But without these things, the field combat ability of the Japanese army is similar to that of our national army, especially their night battles are even more unbearable, and in such a wilderness, as long as our plan is properly arranged, it will not be difficult to win them."

Tang Cheng looked up at the sky, the rain had already decreased a lot, and then looked at his watch, it was already 3 o'clock in the morning, and there was not much time left before dawn, the Japanese army has never been good at night fighting, and it is estimated that there will be no more Japanese attacks tonight. If Tang Cheng had always followed his usual practice, when the battle was over, scouts should have been arranged to go out to reconnoitre, but the guerrillas had suffered heavy casualties and had no extra manpower, and it would have been good to clean up the battlefield before dawn, and Tang Cheng really didn't dare to expect them to complete the reconnaissance mission.

"It's a good fight." While collecting the melon grenades on the corpses of the Japanese soldiers, the dog looked up excitedly and said to Liu Shishi beside him, "Counting the little devils killed on the Tugang side yesterday, our guy has killed more than a hundred little devils, according to this way of fighting, even if there are hundreds of ten little devils, we can still kill them all, haha." ”

"Wishful thinking, foolish dreams." Tang Cheng, who happened to hear the dog talking to Liu Shishi, snorted lightly and said in a cold voice, "The reason why the Japanese army was fooled this time was because they were so arrogant that they couldn't imagine that they would be ambushed in a small place like Lijiapu, and now that they have tasted it, how can they not learn a lesson?" After that, the Japanese army will not be so easy to deal with, and after you really see the Japanese army's formation and attack, I hope you can still say those words just now. ”

"Hey, hey." The dog who was reprimanded by Tang Cheng was not angry, but just reached out and scratched his head, and said with a low smile, "As long as Company Commander Tang is here, we will not be able to suffer a loss." Several guerrillas who were busy carrying the corpses of the Japanese army also nodded their heads again and again, and the trophies that had been moved back to the house made the Lijiapu guerrillas, who originally only had a dozen rifles, become rich people, and now they are all carrying 38 rifles with shotguns on their backs, and the bullets are enough, if it is not for the proper arrangement of Tangcheng, the Lijiapu guerrillas may end up with a total annihilation.

With good weapons and plenty of ammunition, the remaining guerrillas also spoke with momentum, saying that they were not grateful to Tang Cheng It was a lie, so when the dog praised Tang Cheng repeatedly, these guerrillas who heard the two of them nodding yes without saying anything. It was already an hour after the end of the battle to clean up the corpses of the Japanese soldiers at the entrance of the village, not because the guerrillas were too slow, but because there were too few people who could clean up the battlefield with their hands.
