Chapter 100: Support
The guard company commander carried the corpses of more than thirty little devils and quickly returned to the Xuzhou City Headquarters. Li Zhongren and other **** senior generals in Xuzhou were anxiously waiting for news from the guard company in the war room.
"Report!" He Gang, the commander of the guard company, shouted loudly outside the door of the war room.
"Come in!" When Li Zhongren heard the voice of He Gang, the commander of his guard company, he immediately called him in.
"What's going on with that gunshot?" Li Zhongren watched He Gang come in and immediately asked.
"The general seat is like this, the gunfire has stopped as soon as the lowly leader arrives at the city gate, so the lowly and his subordinates found the place of the accident in the direction where the gunfire came, and the lowly found this dagger on the body of a corpse." As he spoke, He Gang handed the dagger found from Ichiro Takechu to Li Zhongren.
Li Zhongren took the dagger from He Gang's hand, the dagger was gorgeous in appearance and engraved in Japanese. "What is this?" Li Zhongren couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
Bai Chongxi on the side took the dagger and looked at it carefully. "This can't be a gift from the emperor of the little devils." Bai Chongxi looked at the dagger and asked.
"Yes, this is indeed a gift from the Emperor of the Japanese Army." He Gang said.
"Could it be that the gunfire just now was someone exchanging fire with the little devils. It is impossible for the little devils to appear here, they should be in Zaozhuang, Suqian, and Suzhou, and they can't come here so quickly. Li Zhongren looked at the military map on the wall and said suspiciously.
"Boss, they came in disguised as our army, and their bodies were brought back by me and left outside." He Gang explained.
"Let's go and see." Saying that, Li Zhongren took the lead out of the war room.
When he came to the courtyard and looked at the more than thirty corpses of little devils placed in the courtyard, Li Zhongren squatted down and looked at the corpses of almost naked little devils, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "Where are their clothes?" ”
"In order to confirm their identity, the lowly ordered someone to strip them of their clothes, and only a little devil would dress like this." He Gang lowered his head and explained.
"Be smart! If you could use these to fight wars, you would have been promoted to regiment commander and division commander a long time ago. Li Zhongren snorted coldly.
"Uncle! It's good for me to be a guard company commander by your side. At the very least, it will keep you safe, and if I'm gone, who will protect you. He Gang lowered his head and whispered.
"Hold your male turtle, when Lao Tzu and Lao Jiang were working against each other, were you still breastfeeding? I wouldn't be alive without you. Hearing what He Gang said about Li Zhongren, he couldn't help but burst into foul language.
"Okay, Delin, stop scolding Xiaogang. Xiaogang, this kid is also kind-hearted. Bai Chongxi couldn't help but comfort Li Zhongren, who was angry.
"Jiansheng! I know. It's just that this kid is good at everything, but he is not self-motivated, and he will not do this or that when he is arranged. I have to be the commander of the guard company. Li Zhongren couldn't help but sigh, a little hated that iron could not become steel.
"Forget it, don't talk about it. Hegang, you go, carry these corpses down. Li Zhongren said a little tiredly.
"Wait, Delin, didn't you notice that there was something special about the deaths of these little devils? The little devil sneaked in disguised as our army, and it was said that our people couldn't find them, and even if they did, they couldn't be their opponents, and those should be the trophies that He Gang cleaned up, right? Bai Chongxi pointed to the submachine guns stacked near the corpse of the little devil and said.
"Yes, Senza, those are the ones we picked up. It seems that the gang of devils who kill devils is not uncommon, these such good submachine guns. The guns were thrown on the ground at random, and no one touched them at all. He Gang also said with some doubts.
That's right, if you look at these things, it's almost a one-shot kill. They were shot at and killed, with multiple gunshot wounds to their chests. These two were stab wounds. Bai Chongxi looked at the corpse on the ground and continued.
"Jiansheng, what do you mean?" Li Zhongren asked Bai Chongxi suspiciously.
"Hehe, I mean the people who helped us get rid of this little devil are not ordinary people. If the average person looked at these such good submachine guns and would abandon them? I can't do it. These guns are no worse than the equipment of Lao Jiang's German armorer! Bai Chongxi said with emotion.
"Yes! Thank you very much to these people, if it weren't for them, I guess if this little devil entered the city, you and my heads would be lost. Li Zhongren and Bai Chongxi said jokingly.
And the person they want to thank, Ye Hang and they came to the outside of the village they passed by before, there is no one in this village, and everyone knows that the little devil has called. They are all relatives who have relatives, and now the village is inhabited by some old people who can't move.
Ye Hang and the three of them found a dilapidated house, and after entering, they simply cleaned up, and they couldn't get down if they didn't clean up. Ye Hang had some thatch outside earlier, spread it on the ground, and the three of them lay on the thatch and soon fell asleep. After more than half a month of rushing on the road, I haven't had a good rest in the open air, and one night, plus the action team that hunted a little devil tonight, I am physically and mentally exhausted. The three of them quickly fell asleep.
The deafening sound of "boom" woke Ye Hang from his dream, "That ****!" What's going on! Ye Hang sat up abruptly and asked Lan beside him.
"Captain, it seems that it's near us, Night Rose has already gone to check!" Lan tidied up Ye Hang's messy clothes and said.
Soon Night Rose rushed back, "The captain is a hundred miles away from us, and there are bombers flying by from time to time. Night Rose said a little out of breath as she returned to the house.
"Lan, take the map. The little devil's movements are too fast, and he hits so quickly. Looking at the location on the map, Ye Hang couldn't help frowning, if nothing else, it seems that the little devil really wants to surround Xuzhou.
"After we finish breakfast first, we will rush to Tancheng immediately." Ye Hang said to the two girls while sorting out the equipment.
Inside the headquarters of the little devils outside Tancheng County
"Your Excellency the division commander, please see, the powerful air power of our empire and the soldiers on land are cooperating to attack Tancheng County, hum, the Zhina troops in Tancheng County don't want to leave alive at all." The commander of the 21st Infantry Wing, Keio Sasaki, said to Seishiro Itagaki with a smile.
"Yo Xi, Sasaki-kun, I hope your troops can quickly occupy Tancheng County, I don't want to see that the troops in Tancheng County are still ready to resist for many days, do you know? I told you when I came last night, I was going to sleep in Tancheng County tonight, I hope you don't forget what I said, do you know? Seishiro Itagaki said to Keio Sasaki.
Sasaki Yoshio was sweating on his head, and Itagaki Seishiro's words clearly told him that no matter what today, he must take Tancheng County, but his troops have just arrived here, and even if the aircraft and artillery bombardment are attacked, there is no way to clear the Chinese defenders in the city in a short time, and it is simply unrealistic for the division commander to want to enter the county seat? In case something happens to the division commander, then he, the wing commander, will also be able to do it.
"The division commander is too aggressive, why do you have to take Tancheng County today? Isn't that embarrassing me? ”。 Sasaki Keio said very unpleasantly.
"I heard that the 9th Division and the 13th Division on the West Road are progressing smoothly, Mengcheng and Yongcheng have been occupied by them, and our division commander doesn't want to be left behind, so he ordered us to take Tancheng County before tonight." The chief of staff of the 21st Wing said to Keio Sasaki.
"Hmph, this is a war, not a game, how can this kind of thing be so compared? The division commander was too hasty. Keio Sasaki said.
"Anyway, this is the order of His Excellency the Division Commander, we can't disobey it, Your Excellency the Wing Commander, it seems that we can only desperately take Tancheng County, only in this way can we ensure the speed of our division's progress." said the chief of staff of the wing.
"It seems that this is the only way to go, and now I can only use the Chinese army in the city to be bombarded with fragments by our imperial planes and artillery fire. So that we don't get into town and encounter maddening street fighting. The division commander will definitely be able to sleep peacefully in the city tonight, if not, hum ......" Keio Sasaki snorted coldly.
