Devil's Army

"Stop, or I'll shoot." Captain Wang shouted at the battalion commander and his men.

"Hello, we have driven away the Japanese, you are safe." The battalion commander shouted to Captain Wang and others while standing in place.

"Were the Japanese driven away by you?" Captain Wang knew that the Japanese were repelled by other troops, but he didn't know if they were repelled by this group of strangers in front of him. What if they came here to pretend to surrender?

"Come over here." Captain Wang thought that there were only five of them, and we had at least 300 people here. They couldn't do anything weird.

The battalion commander and several soldiers arrived at Captain Wang's fortifications. The battalion commander stretched out his hand and said to Captain Wang:

"Hello, I am from the First Anti-Japanese Army."

"The First Anti-Japanese Army?" Captain Wang had obviously never heard of this designation.

"It is the First Anti-Japanese Army of Northeast China in the Oroqen tribe." The soldiers of the First Army naturally called themselves the First Anti-Japanese Army of Northeast China, and never mentioned to others that they were the First Northeast Army of the National Revolutionary Army.

"Oh, I see. You are the devilish unit that the devils are so afraid of."

The battalion commander nodded.

Captain Wang excitedly shook the battalion commander's hand and said happily: "I have only heard of your reputation before, but I didn't expect to see you in person now."

"We have been stationed in the east of Tieling County recently, which is adjacent to your Qingyuan Manchu Autonomous County. Just now, our sentries in this area heard that there was a gunfight here and reported to the regiment commander that you were surrounded by the Japanese. The regiment commander ordered our battalion and the second battalion to come to reinforce you."

"You came just in time. Thank you so much! We have run out of ammunition. If you had come any later, we would have had to fight the devils with bayonets."

"Oh, you have a wounded person here, hurry up and rescue him." Before Captain Wang could say anything, the battalion commander immediately said to the guard, "Hurry up and call the medical staff up."

After a while, two female medical workers, carrying medicine boxes, followed the soldiers to the fortifications.

They expertly treated the wounds, disinfected them, and injected penicillin. Captain Wang's medical staff also helped, but their movements were not as professional.

At this time, the sound of people moving around came from the east side of the fortifications.

Captain Wang and the battalion commander's men immediately looked to the east vigilantly.

Captain Wang looked carefully for a while and found that it was Commander Sun who came with a team of troops to reinforce.

Captain Wang quickly walked over to Commander Sun and said, "Commander Sun, you are too late. The Japanese were driven away by the First Anti-Japanese Army."

"The First Anti-Japanese Army?"

It is the "devil's army" that made the Japanese tremble in fear.

"Oh, hello. I've heard of your great name for a long time, but today I finally see your true face." Commander Sun stepped forward and shook the hand of a battalion commander and said.

"No, no, Commander Sun is also famous in Qingyuan."

At this time, the medical officer came forward and said to the battalion commander: "Captain, the wounded have basically been treated. There are still more than 20 wounded with bullets or shrapnel in their wounds. They need to be sent to the hospital for further treatment."

"There is no hospital here. We can ask local doctors to help them." Captain Wang said with a wry smile.

"If Captain Wang trusts me, you can let them follow us back to Tieling County. The doctors at our Tieling County Hospital can help them further treat their wounds. Captain Wang and Commander Sun can also visit our tribe when they have time."

"Then I'll trouble you, Captain. I will definitely visit the Oroqen tribe if I have the chance." Captain Wang said happily.

"Medic, how many boxes of penicillin are left in your medical kit?"

"Two boxes and four more left."

"Can you give me two boxes?"

The medic obediently took out two boxes of penicillin from the medical box, handed them to Captain Wang and Commander Sun, and said:

"This is medicine for treating bacterial infection after being shot. I'm giving it to you."

A battalion commander saw the troops led by Commander Sun, many of whom were still holding swords and spears. So he said to them:

"We've taken these four mortars and the shells. Can you divide the remaining weapons among yourselves?"

"It was you who drove the Japs away. How can we have the nerve to take your spoils of war?" Captain Wang said embarrassedly.

"It's nothing. We don't lack these weapons."

Captain Wang and Commander Sun then realized that their troops were well-armed, with machine guns at the squad level, which was no less powerful than the Japanese at the same level.

The battalion commander ordered the soldiers to take the four mortars and shells and carry Captain Wang and more than 20 wounded soldiers back to Tieling County.

Before leaving, the battalion commander did not forget to invite Captain Wang and Commander Sun to visit the Oroqen tribe when they were free. He also hoped that the First Army could incorporate these two anti-Japanese armed forces.

Since the Tieling County Hospital had not yet been fully completed, He Shiqi and two nurses could not complete the heavy workload of operating on more than 20 wounded soldiers. So the second regiment commander arranged a truck to quickly transport the more than 20 wounded soldiers to the tribe.

The commander of the first battalion reported to the commander of the second regiment that they had failed to completely wipe out the Japanese, and nearly one hundred Japanese and puppet soldiers had escaped.

The second regiment commander judged that the Japanese would definitely guess that this battle was fought by their First Army. So on the one hand, he arranged for the Third Battalion to dig deep fortifications to prepare for battle, and on the other hand, he sent more scouts to sneak into Qingyuan Manchu Autonomous County to closely monitor the movements of the Fushun Japanese.
