Chapter 135: Destroy the station, blow up the railway, and the Japanese train derails

The most primitive means are often the most difficult to defend against.

In fact, Zheng Kaixuan was careful enough. Before launching the battle, they not only cut off the Japanese telephone lines, but also destroyed the Japanese radio stations and antennas.

But who could have imagined that the Japanese would actually deploy carrier pigeons, an extremely primitive means of communication, near Qujia'an Station.

Although carrier pigeons are slower than telephone lines, they are the most difficult to intercept.

Dozens of carrier pigeons took off at the same time. Even if the spearhead regiment was prepared in advance, it would be impossible to guarantee complete interception.

After the carrier pigeon flew away, Zheng Kaixuan made a prompt decision and immediately decided to evacuate.

Of course, before evacuating, there is one most important thing that must be done.

That means blowing up the railway!

"First Battalion Commander, Third Battalion Commander, bring the explosives and blow up the railway immediately!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Yang Wanli's Third Battalion, as the artillery battalion of the entire regiment, is relatively professional in the use of explosives.

How much explosives are needed to blow up one meter of railway track and how to place them are things that are difficult for anyone other than Yang Wanli to do with ease.

Of course, most of the explosives were seized from the Japanese warehouse in Qujiazhai.

Zheng Kaixuan's weapons and ammunition support team, consisting of only about ten people, consisted of the bionic robots. They drove a few trucks and carried a very limited supply of explosives.

In addition to these explosives, bullets, ammunition, equipment, gasoline, and everything else that could be taken away and used were loaded onto vehicles and carried on horseback by the Sharp Knife Regiment.

Especially gasoline, which is indispensable for the Spearhead Regiment to develop mechanized troops in the future.

Whenever he encounters this situation, Zheng Kaixuan will never give up.

But there were still many things and supplies that could not be taken away, so Zheng Kaixuan arranged for people to burn and destroy them all.

We would rather destroy it than leave a single hair for the Japanese.

"Boom boom boom boom boom..."

The earth-shattering explosion shattered the tranquil night sky...

Yang Wanli was not stingy. In order to ensure that everything would go smoothly, he allocated a sufficient amount of explosives.

More than a hundred meters of railway tracks were blown to pieces, turning into scrap steel and iron scattered all over the ground.

Hundreds of logs were blown to pieces, turning into debris and firewood all over the ground...

"Bangchi, bangchi..."

A few kilometers away, an old steam train loaded with Japanese soldiers and supplies, with its lights on, was heading towards Qujia'an Station.

"Ugh——"

The train blew a long whistle, but its speed did not slow down at all, and it did not notice that a large section of the railway ahead had been broken.

"Boom——"

By the time the Japanese driver of the train discovered that something was wrong with the road conditions, it was too late and he couldn't stop the train at all.

The entire train ran off the tracks and plunged into a ditch not far away, turning upside down.

"Hahaha! The Japs got their comeuppance!"

"As soon as we blew up the tracks, the Japanese train derailed. This worked really quickly!"

"It was worth the trip to see a whole truckload of Japanese soldiers fall to their death."

"It was so damn worth it for us to follow the leader out this time!"

The soldiers of the Sharp Knife Regiment not far away applauded and laughed.

"Yang Wanli, give the Japanese soldiers on the train a ride."

Zheng Kaixuan knew that although the train derailment would cause a large number of casualties among the Japanese on the train, not all of them would necessarily die.

It would be fine if I wasn't here, but since I'm here, how can I justify not helping out?

Of course, the "help" here refers to helping those devils who were not killed by the fall to meet the King of Hell!

"Yes!"

Yang Wanli immediately ordered several of his Triumph mortar vehicles to open fire together.

A minute later, three hundred shells were evenly poured onto every carriage of the train.

"Brothers, withdraw!"

Zheng Kaixuan did not dare to delay any longer, nor was he greedy enough to ask his brothers to seize the supplies on the train.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

If you don't leave now, it will be too late.

Zheng Kaixuan knew that from the moment someone released the carrier pigeons at Qujia'an Station, the entire western Hebei and southeastern Shanxi regions would be in turmoil again.

The carrier pigeon flew more than ten kilometers and flew into a Japanese stronghold.

A few minutes later, phone calls and telegrams were transmitted from the Japanese stronghold as quickly as snowflakes. Almost all the Japanese garrison troops within a radius of hundreds of kilometers were alarmed!

The Japanese 20th Division.

Fumisaburo Kawagishi sat in the command center with a gloomy face, waiting for phone calls and telegrams.

To be precise, he was waiting for news from Zheng Kaixuan and the Sharp Knife Regiment.

He couldn't eat or sleep unless he eliminated Zheng Kaixuan.

He couldn't believe it no matter what. Zheng Kaixuan and hundreds of people just disappeared out of thin air without even a trace of them being found.

For most of the night, I don’t know how many Japanese troops were searching for Zheng Kaixuan, and I don’t know how many Japanese soldiers did not sleep a wink.

He transferred many troops to the north, resulting in a lack of troops in the hinterland of the Taihang Mountains in the east and south.

Just a few hours ago, several units of the 386th Brigade suddenly attacked the 20th Division. After killing a large number of Japanese troops and seizing a certain amount of supplies and ammunition, the various units of the 386th Brigade retreated and hid again in the vast Taihang Mountains.

Kawaishi Fumisaburo was so angry that he gnashed his teeth and had no intention of sleeping.

Unable to stop the main force of the 386th Brigade, Chuan'an directed all his anger on Zheng Kaixuan.

"We must eliminate Zheng Kaixuan's work at all costs!"

"Any news about Zheng Kaixuan and the Sharp Knife Group? You useless idiots! Why is there still no news? What are you all doing here? Did Zheng Kaixuan grow wings and fly away?"

Kawaichi had said these words countless times tonight.

"Reporting to the General, news has come from Tianyu Town that the Qujiazhai Station has come under heavy attack. The troops attacking Qujiazhai are suspected to be Zheng Kaixuan's troops."

At this moment, the Japanese signalman handed the latest telegram to Kawanishi.

"Nani!"

Kawagishi was shocked and jumped up in surprise.

"Are you sure? Zheng Kaixuan's troops appeared in Qujiazhai?"

"Yes, General, judging by the intelligence, it is indeed true. Their fighting style is very similar to their previous battles with the Sakata Regiment and the various Locust Army units..."

Kawaishi took the telegram and examined it carefully, then couldn't help but take a breath.

"Yes, judging from all the signs, it is indeed Zheng Kaixuan's spearhead group."

"But I don't understand how they managed to reach Qujiazhai so quietly."

"No wonder, no wonder we couldn't find any trace of them even after sending a large number of troops to search the Longquanyu area. He actually led his men to kill us in the rear. This man is really too bold in using his troops!"
