Devil's Army

Two special forces members who were scouting the north of the inn did not return all night, and Jackal immediately realized that something was wrong. He quickly passed the information to Gray Wolf through Feilong.

Gray Wolf immediately suspended the operation and told Jackal to keep an eye on the whereabouts of the two missing special forces members.

The next morning, Jackal and a team member carefully asked the shop owner to the north of the inn about the whereabouts of the two special forces members.

It was not difficult for Jackal to learn from the owner of a grocery store opposite the Japanese gendarmerie headquarters that the Japanese had captured two young men and brought them to the gendarmerie yesterday morning.

Gray Wolf also had a headache after hearing Jackal's report. Attacking the Military Police to rescue people, there were more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers in Chaoyang County, and Jackal had less than 30 people, which was like a moth flying into a flame. If a large force attacked Chaoyang County to rescue people, the Japanese soldiers would definitely kill people and retreat. In this way, both special forces members would die anyway.

Jackal immediately arranged two teams of soldiers to stand guard on the way to the inn, and the other team members were ready to retreat, to prevent the two special forces from betraying them.

Although Jackal believed that his special forces could withstand the torture of the devils and would not rebel, so he did not order them to evacuate the inn immediately, but anything was possible, so Jackal still arranged for people to be on guard.

Just when everyone was trying to find ways to rescue the two special forces soldiers, they escaped from the Japanese gendarmerie unharmed.

They made sure there was no one tailing them on the road before they ducked into the inn.

When Jackal saw the two special forces members coming back, he was surprised and puzzled. What kind of place is the Japanese military police? Who can go in without getting skinned? And the Japanese believe that they would rather kill 3,000 people by mistake than let one person escape.

"Didn't the Japs realize that you were soldiers?" Jackal asked them.

"As soon as we entered the military police department, the Japanese military police noticed the calluses on our hands. They must have known that we were soldiers with guns."

"And he let you out like this. He didn't even torture you."

"We all admit that we are soldiers, why do they torture us?"

"You admitted that you were soldiers, so why did they let you out?"

"Captain, this is all thanks to Xiao Wu's cleverness." A special forces member pointed at special forces member Xiao Wu and said.

The jackal turned and looked at Xiao Wu.

"When the Japanese military police found out that we were soldiers, they tied us up and reported to their commander of Chaoyang County. After a while, the commander of Chaoyang County came over and interrogated us personally."

Xiao Wu took a sip of water and continued, "I knew that the calluses on our hands exposed our identities as soldiers. If we didn't admit it, the Japanese would definitely not believe us and would not let us go. We would definitely be beaten severely. So I admitted that we were soldiers at that time."

"I was also frightened by Xiao Wu at that time." said another special forces member nearby.

"But I didn't say we were from the same army. I said I was the platoon leader of the first platoon of the Northeast Army Training Corps. He and I were both from Qingfengling Town and were soldiers in our platoon. Because I knew we were no match for the Imperial Japanese Army, we two deserted and quietly returned to Qingfengling Town to live. The Japanese commander was very happy to hear that. He gave us a thumbs up and said we were very practical. He asked me to let other soldiers in the platoon lay down their weapons if I had the chance and not to confront the Imperial Japanese Army. The Imperial Army would also treat them well. Then he let us go, and we didn't even get a slap in the face."

After hearing this, the jackal laughed and said, "Come on, come on, both of you, since you didn't get slapped in there, I'll give you a few slaps."

"Come on, Captain, how can you be more brutal than the devils?"

"We are not more brutal than the devils, how can we destroy them?"

Everyone laughed after hearing this.

When Gray Wolf heard the report from the Jackal, he felt relieved and began to prepare to attack Chaoyang County.

He ordered the Jackal to provide the artillery with the coordinates of the Japanese gathering place, first trying to eliminate the Japanese's manpower as much as possible, and reduce the resistance and casualties of the troops in attacking Chaoyang County.

The next morning, Jackal and two special forces members arrived at the south gate of Chaoyang County.

In order to prevent the enemy troops from attacking from outside the city, the enemy soldiers and puppet soldiers who were in charge of searching outside the city hid inside the city gates. The enemy soldiers who were patrolling on the city walls hid under the walls, leaving only a few soldiers on the walls to monitor the movements of the enemy troops.

The Jackal passed the coordinates of the place where the Japanese were hiding under the city wall to the artillery of the Third Brigade outside the city through Feilong.

The whistling sound of the devil troops' artillery shells came again, and the devils lay down under the city wall as usual.

But what they didn't expect was that this time the artillery shells from the devil troops outside the city did not fall on the city wall, but fell under the wall where they were hiding.

Mortar shells and small-mountain artillery shells exploded in the dense crowd of Japanese troops, causing heavy casualties to the Japanese.

The shelling stopped, and the Japanese commander, who had recovered, immediately realized that artillery observers from the devil's troops had infiltrated the city, and immediately organized soldiers to search the area near and far near the city gate.

The Jackal learned about the Japs' movements through Feilong and immediately retreated in the opposite direction of their search.

When the common people heard the sound of the artillery shells exploding, they had already fled without a trace.

The streets were empty, without a single pedestrian.

The Japanese searched the area where the artillery observer might be, but found nothing. The artillery observer could not observe the situation inside the city gate from a distance.

Although the Japanese captain was puzzled, he still arranged sentries on the main streets, forbidding irrelevant people to approach the city gates, otherwise they would be shot. Then he arranged for the guards at the city gates to hide again to avoid artillery fire.
