Just when everyone was beating the drums in excitement, a guerrilla came flying over. He was sent to monitor the actions of the Japanese army.
After meeting Xu Dalong and Gao Xiling, he said excitedly: "The Japs came out. There are only more than half a team of more than 40 people, one light machine gun, and no mortars or heavy machine guns."
Hearing this, Gao Xiling breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face. He quickly sent someone to inform all the guerrillas of the news.
When the guerrillas heard that 40 Japanese soldiers had arrived, the number of people ambush here was four times that of the Japanese army, and their nervousness immediately relaxed.
They were now somewhat expecting the Japanese army to quickly enter the ambush circle, and they were all gearing up and getting ready for battle.
About half an hour later, the Japanese troops came over. These Japanese troops obviously did not take the guerrillas seriously. They lined up in neat queues and marched on the road with large strides.
The Japanese army first passed the ambush position of the special operations team. The special operations team members were very calm. They deliberately let these Japanese troops pass and waited until they were in the center of the triangle before launching an attack.
However, some of the guerrillas under Gao Xiling could no longer keep their composure. Just when the Japanese army passed by the ambush position of the special forces, some guerrillas saw that Xu Dalong and the others did not open fire. They immediately panicked and fired at the Japanese army. Got the gun.
When Gao Xiling saw someone exposing his target in advance, he was very angry and cursed: "Which person is the one who didn't listen to the instructions and shot in advance?"
He was a teacher himself and was a very gentle man, but the war had tempered him to be decisive and decisive, and he couldn't help but swear when he was nervous.
Now he had no other choice but to raise his rifle and shoot at the Japanese soldiers, shouting: "Hit me hard."
Since the guerrillas exposed their targets in advance, the Japanese troops on the road were very close to the special forces, making it easier to use the special forces' firepower. They opened fire violently, causing a large number of Japanese casualties.
However, since the Japanese army had not yet reached the middle area of the triangle, although the bullets fired by the guerrillas flew towards the Japanese army in the encirclement, many bullets flew to the special operations team's position, causing the special operations team members to In a hurry.
Due to the small number of Japanese troops, it took a short time to eliminate them all. As a result, two special forces members were accidentally injured by the bullets of the guerrillas, one of whom was seriously injured.
The battle ended quickly, and the guerrillas rushed onto the road with cheers, scrambling to seize the weapons and ammunition of the Japanese and puppet troops. These guerrillas were also frightened. The devils were stripped naked except for what they had on them.
In this battle, the guerrillas suffered almost no casualties. They were all in high spirits. Even Gaoxiling was elated and ran up to Xu Dalong and Li Qiulin, joking and expressing his excitement.
Li Qiulin was very angry and asked Gao Xiling why he did not restrain the troops and opened fire in advance, which resulted in injuries to the special forces members.
Only then did Gao Xiling and his guerrilla commanders realize that they had failed to restrain their troops, which had caused such consequences. At this moment, they all admired Xu Dalong, Li Qiulin and the special forces team members. Li Qiulin's reprimand made them very ashamed, and they accepted Li Qiulin's criticism honestly like primary school students.
Gao Xiling said that he will educate the troops well and make them obey orders and commands in the next battle to ensure that they will not make the same mistake again.
According to the combat plan formulated by Xu Dalong, the guerrillas took the captured weapons and ammunition and followed the special forces to the town.
A standard Japanese field infantry squadron has 180 people. Gaoxiling and their guerrillas have fought against this infantry squadron many times. The Japanese army has lost about 30 people recently, 42 of them were wiped out in this battle just now, and there are still about 100 Japanese troops stationed in the town.
Xu Dalong estimated that when the Japanese army fights again, in addition to logistics personnel and wounded soldiers, this infantry squadron will have about 80 people who can come out to fight. With the strength of the special forces, coupled with the guerrillas who had just won the battle and had high morale, they were fully capable of eating up this Japanese army. Therefore, he decided to lure the snake out of its hole and completely annihilate the Japanese infantry squadron.
After arriving in the town, Xu Dalong and Li Qiulin led a special force to set up an ambush on one side of the road. On the other side of the road were 50 guerrillas. Gao Xiling led the remaining guerrillas to continue to the town. Their mission was to attack the Japanese army in the town. After the battle started, they quickly retreated and introduced the Japanese army into the encirclement.
The Japanese squadron leader sent half a squad to follow Ma Jian to the village to capture the guerrillas. He believed that his men would soon complete their mission and return triumphantly.
Unexpectedly, his men did not return, but guerrillas appeared outside the town. He held the binoculars and saw that many of the guerrillas were holding Type 38 rifles and wearing captured Japanese helmets on their heads, and he felt that something had happened to the people he sent out.
The Japanese squadron leader was very angry and eager to retaliate, so he immediately rushed out with the Japanese troops.
When Gao Xiling and the guerrillas saw the Japanese troops rushing out of the town, they fired a burst of gunfire at them, killing several Japanese troops on the spot.
This angered the Japanese even more, and they launched a fierce attack on the guerrillas. Seeing that the situation was not good, Gao Xiling and the guerrillas turned around and ran. While running, they turned around and fired their guns. From time to time, they killed and wounded one or two Japanese soldiers. The Japanese army was so angry that they chased after them desperately.
Gao Xiling led the guerrillas past the ambush position and then continued running forward. The guerrillas ran about 150 meters in front of the ambush position and suddenly stopped. They all lay on the ground and shot at the pursuing Japanese troops.
This time the guerrillas were all calm, and no one fired in advance to expose the target. The Japanese army's attention was completely attracted by Gao Xiling and the guerrillas. When they saw the guerrillas stopping to block the attack, they happened to run to the center of the inverted triangle.
When the Japanese soldiers were about to form a battle formation, the special forces and guerrillas ambushing behind them fired fiercely at the Japanese soldiers. The Japanese troops were completely exposed to firepower and had nowhere to hide.
The special forces and guerrillas did not have to worry about hurting their own people. They opened up their firepower and beat the Japanese soldiers to their knees.
The Japanese squadron leader and several officers were eliminated by the snipers of the special operations team at the first opportunity. The Japanese army, which had lost its command, was in chaos. Before they could organize an effective counterattack, they basically suffered all casualties.
According to Xu Dalong's prior request, the guerrillas did not launch a charge. They continued to attack the remaining Japanese troops with bullets until they were all annihilated.
The guerrillas only suffered three casualties this time. They were extremely excited and their morale was extremely high.
Unable to sleep, Xu Dalong ordered Gao Xiling to lead the guerrillas into the town and eliminate the remaining Japanese troops in the town.
Three hours later, the guerrillas left the town with a large number of seized weapons, ammunition and various supplies, and returned to the guerrilla station with the special operations team members.
Since its establishment, the guerrillas have never fought such a happy battle. Gao Xiling and the guerrillas admired Xu Dalong and his special forces so much that they promised to help the special forces cross the Denver Strait and support them when they returned.
During this operation, the guerrillas captured two Japanese walkie-talkies. The special operations team members taught them how to use them and stipulated ways to communicate with the special operations units to facilitate communication with each other.
Xu Dalong told Gao Xiling to prevent the Japanese from retaliating and suggested that they move from their current location.
Gao Xiling and others admired Xu Dalong very much and asked him many questions about launching guerrilla warfare, and Xu Dalong patiently answered them.
Gao Xiling and others kept their word. He personally led a detachment of guerrillas and accompanied Xu Dalong to a fishing village they were familiar with. He helped Xu Dalong and others go to the seaside and prepare to cross the sea.
With the help of Gao Xiling and others, Xu Dalong and the others' actions became much easier. They are locals in Gaoxiling and are very familiar with the terrain and enemy situation in this area. They had already figured out the activities of the Japanese Maritime Guard, and arranged a motorboat to send Xu Dalong and others across the sea that night.
In order to thank Xu Dalong and the others, Gao Xiling personally took several guerrillas aboard the motorboat.
The captain of the motor boat is a man in his 40s who has lived here since he was a child. I am very familiar with the sea sentiments of this generation.
There are many rocks and reefs near the coast. If someone who is not familiar with the situation drives a boat into it, the boat will basically be destroyed and people will die. This motorboat sailed calmly between the light and dark rocks. When they left the coast and went to the sea and hid behind a reef, about 20 minutes later, the roar of machines could be heard in the distance, and little lights could be seen.
With the help of the moonlight, everyone saw a Japanese gunboat passing less than one nautical mile ahead.
When the Japanese gunboat was no longer in sight, the captain started the machine again, and the motorboat sailed away. In order to speed up, the sails were also raised. When the lights of Singapore could be seen, the captain turned off the machine, and the ship sailed forward with the help of the wind. Soon it entered a narrow waterway and soon stopped on the shore.
Xu Dalong expressed his gratitude to the captain and gave him two hundred pounds. The captain was very happy to see Xu Dalong's generous move and thanked him repeatedly.
Xu Dalong then said goodbye to Gao Xiling and others, and led the special force to Singapore under the guidance of a guerrilla guide sent by Gao Xiling.
The guide sent by Gaoxiling was also an overseas Chinese. He grew up in Singapore. When he was 19 years old, he followed his father to Kuala Lumpur for business and was very familiar with Singapore. Under his leadership, he found a relative of his in the suburbs of Singapore and temporarily settled the special forces team.
Singapore and Kuala Lumpur are not far apart and both fall under the jurisdiction of the Japanese 25th Army.
In Kuala Lumpur, a communications staff officer of the Japanese army disappeared, and some important documents he carried were also missing. This was of course the work of Xu Dalong's special operations team. However, the local Japanese army attributed this incident to the local guerrillas, and they also reported this incident to the Japanese army in Singapore.
The main content of the notification is about the leakage of some confidential documents, allowing them to deal with the matters involved in those documents. This matter did not attract the attention of Singapore's higher education institutions.
However, soon after, an infantry squadron of the Japanese army was completely annihilated by the guerrillas. This incident became intriguing. In Malaysia, especially around Kuala Lumpur, such incidents are extremely rare.
Kuala Lumpur's Special High School Department sent people to investigate the matter. On the battlefield, they saw bullet casings that neither the Japanese army nor the local guerrillas owned. Based on this, they inferred that a special force participated in the battle. . It was precisely because of the strong combat effectiveness of this unit that an entire Japanese infantry squadron was wiped out.
Another thing came to mind regarding the special higher education course. At the photo studio in Kuala Lumpur, they found a man with a northern Chinese accent. They thought he was suspicious, so they interrogated him. As a result, the man resisted fiercely and was armed. He was very skilled. He must have received special training. However, he was the only one found at that time. The Special High School conducted an investigation and found no accomplices. At that time, it was also speculated that this was an individual act and that he was an independent anti-Japanese element.
Now the two things are connected together, which has aroused great vigilance in the Kuala Lumpur Super High School. They believe that there is a special force carrying out secret missions, operating in Kuala Lumpur and surrounding areas, with an currently unknown purpose. They also informed the Singapore Higher Education Commission about the matter.
Matsuda, the director of the Super High School Division in Singapore, is an extremely perceptive person. Not long ago, he received a tip that Mr. Chen is currently stranded in Singapore. He immediately related the matter to Mr. Chen and believed that it was very likely that a special force from China had arrived in Kuala Lumpur, and it was very likely that they would cross the sea to Singapore.
He immediately contacted the navy and asked them to conduct a strict investigation. At this time, Xu Dalong and others had already crossed the Denver Strait. The navy found no suspicious ships and no trace of this special force.
Matsuda, the director of the Special High School Division, did not dare to be careless at all and sent a large number of informants to inquire about the news.
He believed that even if Mr. Chen included his entourage, the number would be very small, and his large number of followers would provide cover. It would be very difficult to find Mr. Chen directly. There should be a lot of people in this secret force, and they come from the northern region of China and have a special accent. They are still visitors from out of town, and it is generally easier to find their traces.
He believes that this team is here just for Mr. Chen, and they will definitely try to get in touch with Mr. Chen. If traces of this special force can be found, Mr. Chen can be found by keeping an eye on them.
