Quartermasters can also fight the devils

Chapter 225 Turning Point (5)

As soon as the gunshots rang out from Staff Officer Hao's side, Li Zhengying, who was following them two hundred meters behind, realized that the Japanese had discovered their disguise, so he stood up straight, waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, charge." The officers and soldiers of the suicide squad also put all their efforts into charging towards the Japanese command camp ahead.

The burst of gunfire from Staff Officer Hao startled Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke, who was waiting in the division headquarters. He immediately realized that the Chinese army's sneak attack force had appeared.

Damn it, the Chinese army's sneak attack troops are so good at choosing the time. Now is the time when the defense of our division headquarters is the weakest. Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke even suspects that the Chinese army has planted spies in the division headquarters, otherwise how could they choose the time so perfectly.

"Quick, burn the code books, smash the radio stations, and everyone take up their guns and go out to fight. We must stop the Chinese sneak attack force." Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke roared and ordered the stunned officers in the tent.

After giving orders to these people, Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke also walked out of the tent quickly. He called on two soldiers who were holding guns and looking nervous outside the tent to follow him and run to the west side of the camp.

Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke now has only one thought in his mind, and that is to run away quickly. He can't let the Chinese army kill him here. As for the defense of the camp, he believes that Major General Jing Shuxuan will organize the troops for defense. He plans to go back to Hongcheng from the west and then gather the soldiers in the city. He wants to destroy this sneak attack by the Chinese army here.

The cavalry squadron responsible for guarding the camp only had one and a half squads of officers and soldiers on this side of the camp. All their soldiers on the outer sentry posts had been eliminated by Chen Sanpi's squadron. The squadron leader of the cavalry squadron, Captain Mizuta Kosei, led more than 40 soldiers in the camp and started hand-to-hand combat with the suicide squad officers and soldiers who had rushed into the camp.

But Captain Mizuta Kosei and his men were all cavalrymen, and hand-to-hand combat with bayonets was not their strong point. Moreover, they were facing more than 200 officers and soldiers of the suicide squad. After only five minutes of resistance, the squadron leader Captain Mizuta Kosei and more than a dozen of his Japanese soldiers fell in the division headquarters camp.

After hearing the gunshots and explosions in the camp, the Japanese soldiers in the fortifications at the intersection ahead also ran towards the camp under the leadership of a team leader. This team leader knew very well how weak the defenses in the division headquarters camp were.

When they ran to the original fortification at the intersection, they suddenly heard a fierce burst of gunfire from the front. More than a dozen Japanese soldiers who were running on the road were knocked down immediately. The Japanese squad leader was so scared that he quickly ordered the soldiers lying on the ground to shoot forward and commanded the soldiers to crawl forward.

Li Zhengying led the officers and soldiers of the suicide squad to wreak havoc in the camp of the 9th Division headquarters. After seeing the tent, the officers and soldiers of the suicide squad did not rush in, but threw a few grenades into the tent, not caring whether anyone was killed or not, or they just set the tent on fire. In short, they implemented the strategy set by Li Zhengying at the beginning of the operation very well, that is, destruction, making the Japanese army worry about the safety of their own command headquarters.

Li Zhengying led the officers and soldiers of the suicide squad to kill a lot in the camp of the 9th Division. Then, after Liu Daoba, who was responsible for blocking the intersection, came with the officers and soldiers of the blocking team, they rushed towards the woods to the north of the camp.

Li Zhengying was very satisfied with tonight's operation. Although he didn't know whether the commander of the 9th Division, Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Yoshisuke, was killed, it was a great fortune that the team led by Staff Officer Hao captured a Japanese major general alive. He must stop while he is ahead and run away as soon as he has gained the advantage.

After hearing the gunfire from the 101th Division headquarters camp, the baggage soldiers of a squad of the st Division to the north of the division headquarters camp, led by their squad leader, all rushed to the camp to reinforce. When they arrived at the camp, they ran into the death squad officers and soldiers led by Li Zhengying.

Sakurai Shota also came to reinforce the camp under the leadership of his squad leader. He was now engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the Chinese sneak attack force with a rifle with a fixed bayonet. However, the soldiers in their squad were all baggage soldiers, who were sent to serve as baggage soldiers because their military skills were not good enough.

Asking them to resist the attack of the Chinese army that is several times their number now is simply an act of seeking death. Sakurai Shota really wanted to find a corner nearby to hide, but now the entire camp was full of tents set on fire by the Chinese army. Under the light of the fire, he didn't know where to hide.

Sakurai Shota died very comfortably. He was stabbed in the heart by a flying dagger. Liang Fei walked to Sakurai Shota's body, pulled out his beloved dagger from Sakurai Shota's heart, and then muttered to himself, "Godfather, this is the seventeenth Japanese soldier."

After Li Zhengying led the officers and soldiers of the suicide squad to break through the defense line of the baggage soldiers, they ran towards the woods in the north without stopping. After running all the way to the woods in the north, the officers and soldiers of the suicide squad untied the reins of hundreds of Japanese war horses tied in the woods, and then drove these horses to run around.

Li Zhengying felt that since he had discovered the place where the Japanese war horses were, it would be unreasonable for him not to destroy them along the way. So the last stop of his sneak attack was this forest. He wanted to let all the horses go, and it would be a huge task for the Japanese to gather the horses back.

After finishing these things, Li Zhengying led the team to make a big detour along the outer line. They needed to return to the city quickly. This time they captured a Japanese major general. The Japanese might transfer all the soldiers in the city to outside the city to search for them. If they were entangled by the Japanese, their few people would be in great danger.

Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Yoshisuke led two soldiers and ran all the way back to the Hue Gate of Hongcheng. Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Yoshisuke did not even dare to look back at his division headquarters camp along the way. He now had only one idea, which was to quickly organize troops in the city to eliminate the Chinese army that attacked the division headquarters. Now this was his first priority. As for occupying Hongcheng, he would talk about it after eliminating this Chinese sneak attack force.

The headquarters of Colonel Hitomi Hidezo, commander of the 19th Regiment, was near the Hue Gate. After hearing the gunshots from the division headquarters camp, Colonel Hitomi Hidezo drew out two squadrons of officers and soldiers from the front line of his own regiment to gather at the regiment headquarters. He knew that he had to rescue the division headquarters camp as soon as possible, as there were not many garrisons there.

When Colonel Hitomi Hidezo was about to set off with two squadrons of officers and soldiers who had just arrived from the front line, he saw the division commander, Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Yoshisuke, running towards his regiment headquarters breathlessly with two soldiers.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander, I'm glad you're okay. I have already transferred two squadrons of officers and soldiers from the front line to reinforce the battle at the division headquarters." Colonel Hitomi Hidezo hurried to the division commander, Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke, and reported loudly.

"Captain Hitomi Hidezo, you must lead the team out immediately. You must eliminate the Chinese troops that launched a surprise attack. Also, you must find Major General Ishu Nobutoshi. He should be organizing troops for defense in the camp. Do you understand?" Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke did not even have time to catch his breath, and quickly gave orders to Colonel Hitomi Hidezo.

Colonel Hitomi Hidezo also understood that now was not the time to talk. When he knew that his brigade commander was still in the division headquarters camp, he quickly drew out his command sword and led two squadrons of officers and soldiers to run quickly out of the city.

After Lieutenant General Yoshizumi Ryosuke saw Colonel Ren Jianxiu and his troops leave, he sat down in the yard of the 19th Regiment Headquarters and gasped for breath. He knew that he was safe this time. His troops were still defending the city, and the Chinese army did not launch a full-scale night attack while his division headquarters was attacked. This showed that the Chinese army on the opposite side was now exhausted, and their guard strength was estimated to be quite tight.

Liu Erlai was originally a thug in charge of the casino in the "Xiaodaohui" in Hongcheng. Later, under the "inspiration" of the new 100th Division, his boss asked his former subordinates to join the army and serve the country. Liu Erlai felt that joining the army was a good idea. Since he joined the army, he felt a lot more magical when walking on the road. Those policemen who he had to please in the past would call him Liu Zhuangshi when they saw him. You know, they used to call him "Lai Xiaozi".

Liu Erlai, along with his squad leader and several brothers, moved skillfully in the streets of Hongcheng. He was very familiar with this place. He used to be a thug in a gang and often went to the homes of gamblers in the casino to collect debts. He knew clearly which family had a cellar and which had a secret compartment.

Liu Erlai was very fond of being able to carry out sneak attacks and harassment in the urban areas occupied by the Japanese army. It might not be possible for these gang members to fight a frontal defensive battle, but if they were asked to use hidden guns or clubs to attack, they would definitely have the confidence to accomplish this task.

"Liu Er, where are we now?" Squad leader Hong Dazhi asked in a low voice to Liu Erlai who was leading the way in front. He felt that the name Liu Erlai was really unpleasant, so he and his soldiers called him Liu Er.

After hearing his squad leader's question, Liu Er carefully stuck his head out of the window and looked out. After finding no trace of the Japanese army, he whispered, "Squad leader, we are almost at Hue Gate. I just checked outside and there are still no Japanese soldiers. Where are all the Japanese soldiers who patrolled these days? Are they hiding?"

Hong Dazhi looked at Liu Er, and then said uncertainly: "Who knows, these Japanese soldiers are really something, they should be the ones looking for us, but now we are looking for them everywhere, it's really weird."

"Then should we continue searching forward? We're not far from the Hue Gate. We're almost out of the city." Liu Er was also sitting against the wall with a gun in his arms and asking in a low voice.
