Chapter five hundred and fifty fourth fight
555
At the command of the Japanese Army Brigade Regiment of Linfen City, Major General Matsumoto, the brigade commander, was in a very good mood.
I originally thought that after the special forces were disbanded, I was transferred back to China to serve as a freezer and kept it in a refrigeration period for a while. But I didn't expect that I was not only not hidden, but also promoted.
Although he is now just the major general brigade commander of the garrison brigade, Matsumoto is confident that with his relationship in the military headquarters and backstage, as long as he makes enough military achievements in Linfen, the garrison brigade can easily become an independent mixed brigade. At that time, he will transform from a garrison troop officer into a field troop officer.
That's not all. The newly appointed commander of the North China Front Army, Jun Tada, has a trust in him that can be said to be unconditional.
Not only did he keep himself and promote himself, he also gave himself the right to re-establish special forces.
Just now, I had just appointed the captain of the special forces brigade, and used more than 20 special forces soldiers whom I brought out of Fengling Town as seeds to reorganize and train the special forces brigade.
Major General Matsumoto was confident that he waited for the special operations brigade to form combat effectiveness, and with the thousands of infantry under his command, he would definitely be able to deal with the anti-Japanese armed forces operating in his own defense zone, and completely pursuing the public security of Linfen and several surrounding counties!
"Bang bang bang..." A knock on the door suddenly woke Matsumoto from his dream, and then he saw the chief of staff of the brigade walking in with a smile.
"General, the First Infantry Battalion reported that all the remnants of the New First Regiment had fled into the mountains, and they only had a small amount of weapons and ammunition left, so they would definitely not last long!" As soon as they walked to Major General Matsumoto, the Chief of Staff reported.
"I did a good job, tell them the captain, continue to work hard, eliminate all anti-Japanese armed forces in Linfen, and then ask the Imperial Army to cooperate and divide the troops to station all towns outside the city, so that Linfen will completely become the territory of the Imperial Army!" Major General Matsumoto was very satisfied with the captain who relied on his captain as soon as he took office. He was capable and loyal, and answered very satisfactorily.
"I will telegram back to the First Brigade in a while!" The Chief of Staff quickly answered.
Then continued to add: "Also, their captain reported that he planned to draw two squadrons of the Imperial Army and two battalions of the Imperial Army to divide the troops to block the mountains where the New First Regiment was hiding. As long as the remaining troops of the New First Regiment come out of the mountain, they will be killed immediately."
"In addition, he also hopes that the Brigade Command will give all villages and towns in Linfen. No matter which village, as long as the anti-Japanese armed forces are now hiding, the entire village will be punished. Let the entire Linfen become a forbidden area for the Eighth Route Army and other anti-Japanese armed forces, and ordinary people will hide far away when they see them!"
"Continuous seat system!" Major General Matsumoto's eyes lit up, and then he fell into deep thought.
After thinking for a minute, he replied: "Yes, Linfen's anti-Japanese armed forces have been eliminated, which is the best opportunity for the Imperial Army to completely control the place. Chief of Staff, come and contact the pseudo-government, formulate the specific provisions of the joint-selected system, and implement them in Linfen as soon as possible!"
"I agree with all other suggestions from the First Brigade." After saying that, Major General Matsumoto did not forget to repay his promise.
"Tell him and do it well. Once this is done, I will apply to my superiors and promote him to the captain of the Central League!"
Wang Ping took more than 200 remaining soldiers and walked for a full six hours before he reached the edge of the mountain.
Looking at the sky slowly getting darker above his head, and seeing his subordinates who were exhausted behind him who were not very physically strong, Wang Ping decided to stop decisively.
"Battleman Zhong, take out all the remaining food in our hands and make a meal for everyone to eat. The remaining wild boar meat from yesterday was also cooked. Be careful to prevent smoke and don't let the Japanese outside the mountain show us. This place is not far from the mountain pass!"
"Did it all!" Zhong Chenggong asked with disbelief.
Then he reminded with a worried look: "Captain, you should only do half of it. If you can't get food tonight, you will go hungry tomorrow. Leave half just in case!"
"No, there is still a battle waiting for everyone tonight. Everyone needs to eat enough so that they can fight the Japanese!" Wang Ping shook his head and refused, with a confident look on his face.
Zhong Chenggong still had a worried expression, but Wang Ping's identity as the captain of the special operations brigade made him confident in the leader's words, and finally chose to execute.
He has seen the combat effectiveness of the Special Warfare Brigade. In his eyes, there is no problem on the battlefield that the Special Warfare Brigade cannot solve, let alone the founder and trainer of the Special Warfare Brigade around him.
Zhong Chenggong's ability is unquestionable.
Wang Ping was full of appreciation for him to be able to keep the remnants of the new troop in such a dangerous environment.
Therefore, after the order was issued, Wang Ping began to think about how he could break the deadlock in front of him.
Seeing that the troops started cooking, resting, and inspecting the wounded under Zhong Chenggong's command. Wang Ping directly signaled Li Wen to touch the mountains with him. When no one was available to the new regiment, even though he was the regiment commander, Wang Ping could only go to the battlefield himself to be a scout.
Two hours later, Wang Ping came back.
Seeing Wang Ping frowning and a solemn look on his face. Zhong Chengxun, who was anxiously waiting, had a very bad premonition, and then stared at Wang Ping and asked.
"Captain, isn't it easy to fight?"
"There is one thing!" Wang Ping did not hide it!
"There is a temporary stronghold for the Japanese in the mountain pass in front of us. Initial judgment, there is a small team of Japanese and a company of puppet troops inside, with a total force of more than 150 people. It also occupies a high ground and has a lot of fortifications built around!"
"We must have no choice but to do more than 150 Japanese and puppet troops!" This sentence is definitely to enhance others' ambitions and destroy one's own majesty. However, when it comes to the life and death of the new regiment, Zhong Chenggong still said it without hesitation.
"The strong attack is definitely not possible. Just our people and equipment are not enough for each other to get stuck in the gaps!" Wang Ping was not angry, and agreed very much.
Then he changed the subject and said, "So I decided to use a trick to see if I could kill them bit by bit!"
"Let everyone hurry up and rest. After two hours, draw a hundred people out and follow me to fight the Japanese!"
At one o'clock in the morning, it was pitch black everywhere, but on a small highland occupied by the Japanese and puppet troops, several piles of burning bonfires shone brightly around. A total of eight tents were lined up in two rows on the high ground. Dozens of Japanese and puppet troops did not enter the tent to rest, but sat around the bonfire and napped with rifles in their arms.
As expected, these Japanese and puppet troops must have been sent by the Japanese to be on duty at night to watch.
In addition to these already sleepy Japanese and puppet troops, there were many Japanese and puppet troops scattered on the hillside of the highlands, which were sentries arranged by the Japanese on the surface.
"There are two puppet troops there, each of us has one bullet. After killing these two puppet troops, we will attack the high ground!" Wang Ping decisively ordered the soldiers who happened to be a platoon behind him.
"Baopa!" Thirty rifles fired together, and the messy and dense gunfire sounded like light machine guns.
The gunshots sounded, and the two puppet troops were instantly beaten into sieves, and then thirty soldiers attacked the mountain.
Careful people will see that everyone bent their waists very low, and as long as the Japanese on the mountain shoot and block the attack, they can instantly lie on the ground!
Chapter completed!
