War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 547 Five Minutes Distance
"Chaoyang, it seems that we are not going to fight anymore!"

At Xinkou where the 217th Brigade was stationed, Xu Chaoyang was standing on the hillside looking into the distance through a telescope, while Yang Jingyu behind him said these words.

Indeed, there were no more gunshots in the distance, but Xu Chaoyang was so angry that his teeth were itching!

What do you mean by not fighting anymore?
Can we defeat, crush and annihilate the 2nd Mixed Brigade with just a few shots?

What does it mean to not fight?
It was a defeat in the first battle!
217 has never lost a battle in its first battle!
"I'm going to kill him!"

The most important reason why people hate a troublemaker is that, besides not wanting to be manipulated, he cannot accomplish what he wants to do and also delays the plans of the main force.

The amazing thing about this troublemaker is that, even when he is disobeying orders, he can accidentally cooperate with the plans of the large army and achieve results that you can never imagine!

What happened?

The two sides fired a few shots at each other, and you retreated into the mountains, inexplicably giving the Japanese their first victory. Will they come to attack Xinkou happily tomorrow?

This is what Xu Chaoyang hates!
"Someone, send a message to the Military Commission!"

"Hold the 386th Brigade accountable!"

Yang Jingyu stretched out his hand and gently pulled Xu Chaoyang's arm: "That's the 386th Brigade..."

"He is the 129th Division!"

"I have to ask who taught him to fight like this!"

Xu Chaoyang was really furious. It was totally luck that Xinkou did not suffer a bombardment tonight. Otherwise, according to the temper of the Japanese, if you dared to send people to provoke them like this, they would not be able to do anything about it. A round of artillery fire would be inevitable. Who would pay for the lives of the 217 soldiers who were killed for no reason?

"report!"

"The 115th Division Headquarters asked what happened at the front of the Xinkou position. Did they encounter a large-scale attack by the Japanese?"

"Report, the 120th Division Headquarters asks if the 217th Brigade needs support!"

"Report, 386th Brigade... Ask which unit is engaging the enemy..."

Xu Chaoyang pointed back, looked at Yang Jingyu and said, "Did you see that? Even the 386th Brigade itself is confused!"

Yang Jingyu laughed out loud at the side. The inquiring expressions of the other two divisions showed their concern, except for the 386th Brigade, which was really afraid that Wang Jinshan would cause trouble for them.

"Report, Commander Song of the 716th Regiment sent someone to say that the Japanese position suddenly increased its defenses after exchanging fire with someone unknown. He is ready to abandon the harassment mission tonight and has sent someone to seek the approval of the brigade."

This time even Yang Jingyu couldn't persuade him and could only take a step back. He couldn't do anything about this matter.

"Call the Second Theater Command..."

"never mind."

Xu Chaoyang gave up.

If the matter was exposed and made a big fuss at this time, whether the Military Commission dealt with Wang Jinshan to calm its anger or sent the news to the head of the Second War Zone, it would be a slap in its own face. Even if the news was sent back to the 386th Brigade’s base, it would also hit the morale of its own soldiers...

If this news gets out, what will Yan Laoxizi of the Second War Zone, Wei Lihuang, the commander-in-chief of Xinkou, and Fu Zuoyi think of us wearing gray uniforms?

Wouldn't he just pout and ridicule you with ill intentions?
Did you vent your anger at that time?

You are suffering along with your boss!
Ok……

Xu Chaoyang looked at the night in the distance, gritted his teeth and gathered his strength. He said several times in his heart: "Wait until the battle is over, Wang Jinshan, wait for me!"

"Give me the order!"

"The whole brigade will take a rest in batches. The soldiers who are resting will go to the anti-artillery pit to sleep, while the rest of the soldiers will stand guard on the position, and this will be repeated in turn."

"Yes!" "Order the New 67st, New nd, and th Regiments to each assign observation posts and keep a close eye on the movements of the Japanese. In the event of an enemy attack, those who are too late to report will be given priority to counterattack. Except when encountering artillery fire or bombing, no ineffective counterattacks such as long-range shooting are allowed."

"Yes!"

After the two orders were issued, Xu Chaoyang turned around and went back into the shed, saying at the end: "It makes me worry."

boom!
A huge explosion sounded from the valley area, and a strong gust of air swept up the vast dust and smoke, which was blown along the hillside like a surging river. Xu Chaoyang's body seemed to be shaking due to the shock. When he looked back, his hair was blown up by the strong wind.

boom!
boom!
Several explosions were heard one after another, and a blazing fire suddenly lit up behind the hillside in the distance. The dark sky was illuminated by the fire. Xu Chaoyang still couldn't tell what had exploded and what had caught fire!
……

"Hahaha!"

On the top of the mountain, Wang Jinshan pointed in the direction of the red sky and laughed loudly. He stood on the top of the mountain under the bright moon like a jumping monkey, jumping and shouting: "Good job!"

"Look everyone, it must be the enemy's oil depot that was blown up!"

"I knew that this bastard wouldn't believe it unless he sacrificed a few lives!"

"I knew it!"

He pulled out his Mauser pistol again and turned around to shout, "Scout Company, go show me what's going on. If the enemy camp is in chaos, report immediately. We'll rush over and kill them first while the chaos is going on!"

"Go!"

……

five minutes ago.

In the Japanese camp, several Japanese soldiers, less than a squad, were marching forward in a line. They had completely turned around. There were the same tents everywhere, similar bonfires and the same military uniforms. The only thing they could still remember was that they should head towards the northwest of the Japanese camp. So, under the leadership of the squad leader, they carefully identified the direction and headed west.

"Ready to fight!"

At the squad leader's command, several men holding guns ran due west in a completely different manner from the Japanese army. From a distance, they saw a large area covered with canvas. It looked like a lot of gasoline barrels stacked in two layers were placed in this area.

However, there were no cars as described in the target parked outside this area, let alone any armored vehicles or tanks. But the soldiers patrolling around were never interrupted. In the center of the area, there was a temporary tower built with firewood, with people on top carrying rifles for lookout.

"Squad leader, is this the location of the Japanese oil depot?"

"I don't know, why don't you go over and ask?"

puff.

Their conversation made the other two laugh, and they lowered their heads and their shoulders shook with laughter.

"Hold it back!"

The squad leader was worried as he saw the enemy in front of him, who outnumbered him by several times. He didn't know how to get past them, let alone how to get close to the oil drums. He wanted to lick his teeth when he saw the machine guns mounted on the sacks outside...

Tsk…hiss…

I've thought of every possible solution in my mind, except... giving up.

Facing an oil depot guarded by a squadron of people, if four people want to take it down but are unable to get close, it would be like a fantasy. As long as the Japanese don't actively cooperate and let these people in, you will be helpless.

At this moment, the Japanese soldiers guarding the oil depot with machine guns looked in the direction of these people. Even though it was dark and any form of fireworks were prohibited near the oil depot, they still had flashlights for lighting. How could they not see people approaching?
The squad leader was also a man with ideas. He moved around, opened a tent next to him, and immediately got in. If he had walked another ten or twenty meters forward, there would have been no tent.

Call ~
Call ~
The tent was full of Japanese soldiers who had been ordered to take a limited rest after the battle had just ended. The room was filled with snoring sounds.

After the four people followed the squad leader's footsteps and came in, the young man finally moved to the edge of the tent and kicked something down with a "clang". Several people turned their heads at the same time and looked at the soldiers who were sleeping in the tent!
