Devil's Army

While arranging the golden eagle to follow in the air, Captain Wei sent a message to the headquarters: The Japanese special forces have been dispatched. The direction of travel may be Leting County.

Wu Lang received the telegram and took it very seriously. He immediately ordered the 1st Regiment of the 12th Brigade of Sanhe County to intercept and kill the Japanese special forces on the way to Leting County.

Wu Lang also specifically instructed Commander Zhang of the 12th Brigade that the soldiers should set up an ambush at the upwind side and bring wet towels.

Captain Wei and a special forces member followed the Japanese special forces from a distance and also went out of the north gate of Tianjin City.

Captain Wei and his team encountered some problems when they were leaving the north gate of Tianjin City.

A puppet army squad leader did not recognize the gold-carved display screen in the hands of the special forces soldier. He searched it repeatedly in his hands and refused to return it to the special forces soldier.

Captain Wei told him that this was a glass sample he had custom-made for a client, and he stuffed three dollars into his pocket to trick him into leaving.

A regiment commander learned from the intelligence sent by Captain Wei that the Japanese convoy had only four trucks and a squadron of devils escorting it.

Even if these four trucks were full of Japanese soldiers, there would not be more than 400 people. Including the escorting squadron of Japanese soldiers, the number of Japanese troops dispatched this time would not exceed half a battalion.

Time was running out. After a brief discussion, the regiment commander arranged for a battalion to rush to a small woods on the left side of the Jiyun Canal, more than 100 miles northeast of Tianjin City, to set up an ambush.

The road here is narrow, only big enough for one truck to pass through, and the trees on the left are dense, making it convenient to set up an ambush. It is also close to the Ji Canal, so if there is an attack by the Japanese biological and chemical weapons troops, it is also convenient to get water to wet the towels.

As there were limited trucks in Sanhe County, the commander of a battalion arranged for the first company to take trucks to Jiyun River in advance to set up an ambush and intercept the Japanese army. The other two companies hurriedly marched to Jiyun River.

The company commander hurried and finally arrived at the grove beside the Ji Canal ahead of the Japanese.

The company commander immediately ordered the soldiers to build fortifications and prepare for battle.

It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, and the soldiers of the first company had not yet built their fortifications, but the roar of truck engines had already been heard from the direction of Tianjin.

The company commander immediately ordered the soldiers to stop building fortifications and ambush on the spot.

Because of concerns that there were biological and chemical weapons on the vehicle, the company commander ordered the soldiers not to attack the truck and to eliminate the escorting Japanese troops first.

The Japanese special forces truck staggered into the ambush circle of the first company.

Following the order from the company commander, intensive gunfire and grenade explosions were heard in the grove.

The escorting Japanese soldiers were knocked down one after another, and those who were not knocked down lay down or sought cover and fought back at the grove.

Since the company commander only had light weapons with him to set up an ambush, he obviously felt a little overwhelmed when facing the fierce counterattack of the Japanese army.

The first Japanese truck began to ram the trees blocking the road repeatedly and desperately. The road was about to be cleared by the Japanese trucks. As long as the roadblock was cleared, the Japanese trucks could quickly break out of the encirclement.

The company commander took the Type 38 rifle from a soldier next to him and calmly aimed it at the driver of the first Japanese truck.

"Bang" a gunshot sounded in the noise. The glass of the cab of the first Japanese truck was shattered, and a beautiful blood flower bloomed on the driver's forehead.

The first truck of the Japanese army also stopped abruptly in front of the roadblock with the sound of gunfire, and the way forward for the trucks behind was also completely blocked by this stalled truck.

What puzzled the company commander was that while they were fighting so fiercely with the infantry squadron escorted by the Japanese army, none of the soldiers in the four trucks got out to reinforce.

Soon, the second and third companies of the first battalion also arrived at the battlefield one after another. They did not take time to rest and immediately threw themselves into the battle, attacking the Japanese escort troops from both sides.

The first battalion's mortar shells began to hit the Japanese army, and the light and heavy machine guns of the second and third companies swept towards the Japanese army one after another.

The balance of victory in the battle began to tilt towards the 1st Battalion. However, the Japanese escorting troops were very tenacious and fought hard even when they were at a disadvantage.

The battalion commander ordered a final charge against the dying Japanese troops.

The shouts of the Japanese soldiers were heard all around the Japanese truck.

After a while, the stubborn Japanese soldiers were knocked down one after another.

All the Japanese soldiers escorting the convoy were killed, and the drivers in the trucks were also shot dead. Now there were only four Japanese soldiers in the trucks left.

The soldiers of the first company approached the truck cautiously and shouted into the truck:

"Surrender your weapons and you will not be killed!..."

Maybe they didn't understand, but no one in the truck surrendered. The sharp-eared soldiers even heard a woman crying in the truck.

Two soldiers walked to the back of the truck, guns drawn, and suddenly pulled back the canvas at the back of the truck.

Several soldiers from the first battalion following the two soldiers also held grenades in their hands, ready to throw them into the carriage at any time.

At this moment, a scene that shocked the soldiers of the first battalion appeared.
