Wen Xin saw the different reactions of several people, especially the saliva at the corner of Xu Baichuan's mouth, and said angrily:
"It's getting late, go to sleep quickly, you can have everything in your dreams!"
Asai led his troops back three miles and stopped. An hour later, two Japanese squads followed from behind.
"Your Majesty Lieutenant Colonel, Tubal Road is not pursuing us. Maybe they just want us to have a bad rest."
Asai shook his head and said suddenly: "Tuba Road is indeed harassing us, so I can conclude that their troops are seriously insufficient.
After the coalition headquarters arrives tomorrow, we may concentrate all our efforts to open the east gate of the Black Wind Mountain base area in one fell swoop. "
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning the Asai Brigade remained motionless, just waiting for the other two brigades of the Matsumoto Wing to come over.
On the battlefield of the Eighth Route Army Battalion, Qian Zhengyang looked into the distance distressedly. The instructor next to him, Zhu Xu, said,
"Old Qian, according to intelligence, the Matsumoto Regiment will join the Asai Brigade at noon today at the latest.
By then there will be nearly 3,000 Japanese troops, and the pressure will be great! "
"It's okay. The positions behind are ready. If nothing can be done, we can retreat, but we can't let the Japanese advance easily."
Wang Dali, Dakui and Xu Baichuan were following the Wen Gu brothers and sisters.
Xu Baichuan got angry when he looked at him, "You are also a regiment leader after all. If you don't arrange your troops well, why are you following us?"
"Commissioner Xu, they are the children of our brigade commander. You, a special commissioner from the national government, can follow you. What can't I do?"
After saying that, he said to Wen Gu: "Xiao Gu, you see the Japanese army is coming soon. We should give you an accurate answer on how to beat you!"
"The entire Matsumoto Regiment still has about 2,700 people. With the addition of an artillery brigade, this number should reach 4,000. We definitely can't fight hard.
The good news is that the Wu Chuannan Division is a second-level division and does not have many heavy weapons. According to the news from the government, this division only has one mountain artillery brigade, and its firepower is not too strong. "
Xu Baichuan told all the news he knew.
Qian Zhengyang and Zhu Xu walked over and said to brother and sister Wen Gu:
"Xiao Gu, Xiao Xin, the brigade commander has already prepared a battle plan. The Wu Chuan Nan Division is very short of logistical supplies. As long as we lay mines and shoot black guns,
Try to slow down their advance. They will have to retreat when the time is up, so don't take risks! "
Wen Gu also knew that a force could only become a powerful force after being baptized by the iron-blooded fire of war, and Wu Chuannan's Type B division was the best whetstone.
After 10 o'clock in the morning, the Matsumoto Wing finally arrived at the camp of the Asai Brigade, and Lieutenant Commander Asai hurried to report the situation.
"Your Excellency Colonel, the strength of the Heifengshan base area on Tubal Road is very strong. One reinforced battalion actually has an artillery battery of 6 92 infantry guns.
Moreover, they also have snipers with very good marksmanship, and the mountain roads are all full of mines, so our advancement is very slow! "
Asai Nakazuo lowered his head as he spoke, because Matsumoto looked at him with a darkened face.
"Asai-kun, I am very disappointed with your advancing speed. Your brigade set off yesterday afternoon, but it is only 30 kilometers away from the city now.
There is really no way to satisfy me with this kind of speed, and it has no effect at all when you use special bullets.
Now bring your team back and let me take full command! "
The battle plan set by Wu Dennan and Chief of Staff Yoshida was for up to three days, and the troops from three directions would have to advance to the foot of Black Wind Mountain.
Let Tubalu have no way to escape into the mountains. Once too much time passes and local civilians enter the mountains with Tubalu, the battle will be considered a failure.
When Asai walked out of the headquarters, he had a smile on his face, "Finally, I don't have to face endless mines and endless black guns, long live!" 】
Matsumoto stood outside the temporary headquarters, looking in the direction of Black Wind Mountain, and said to Yusuke Sakai:
"Sakai-kun, let's set off immediately. I will celebrate at the headquarters on Tubal Road tonight!"
Lieutenant Colonel Sakai said with feverish eyes: "Your Majesty, Captain, please rest assured!"
Not long after Matsumoto set out with two and a half brigades, he encountered the mountain road that had been shelled by Asai yesterday. Trucks could not pass here.
Matsumoto looked at the road in front of him, "Baga, this idiot Asai actually blew up the road like this!"
He immediately arranged for the logistics squadron to fill in the mountain road. Just after passing this section of the road, he heard an explosion.
"Bang"
The leading truck was blown away, and the convoy behind it stopped.
Matsumoto had just taken a rest and got out of the car again, "Baga, what's going on?"
Asai hurried over and explained, "Sir Matsumoto, there are landmines planted on Tubal Road on the road ahead!"
After he finished speaking, he remained silent. This problem finally no longer bothered him. It was his first time to fight against the Eighth Route Army behind enemy lines. This kind of fighting method made Asai very uncomfortable.
"Baga, these Tubal roads are cunning and cunning. Mr. Asai, let your two squadrons guard the high ground on the left and right. I will immediately arrange for the engineering troops to clear mines." Today we must pass three posts.
"Hi"
Asai jogged back to deliver the order.
On the hillside in the distance, brother and sister Wen Gu were waiting here early.
"Hey, old Japanese Matsumoto does have something. He actually asked the Japanese to guard the high ground on both sides, so that the Eighth Route Army soldiers would not be able to ambush."
Wen Gu said to Wen Xin with a smile.
"Can't fight? He hasn't seen my shooting skills and wants to clear mines? I'll beat them all into dead dogs!"
Wen Xin said and set up the gun. The 98K scope worked to its best in Wen Wen's hands.
"Snapped"
A Japanese engineer was shot in the head, his blood spurted out, and he fell straight to the ground. A mine was also triggered, and two other Japanese soldiers within ten meters of him were also injured by the mines.
When the gunfire rang out, the other Japs immediately fell to the ground and kept looking around. Time was too short and they were not sure where the sniper was.
The Japs on both sides of the mountain road were about 100 meters away from the road. They heard the gunshots. The Japs squadron leader on the left drew his command knife and pointed in the direction of the Wen Gu brothers and sisters.
"Kill me!"
Wen Gu had already taken out a lot of grenades when his sister opened fire. The two of them didn't pay attention to a Japanese squadron of less than 200 people at all.
Besides, they were accompanied by soldiers from the brigade's reconnaissance battalion. Their marksmanship was not as good as that of the Wen Gu brothers and sisters, but they were still the most elite troops of the independent brigade.
The most important thing now is time. Just shoot and run away, otherwise the Japanese behind will continue to increase their troops. If a cold shot turns into a defensive battle, it is not asking for death.
The Wen Gu brothers and sisters and the others hid very well and waited until the Japanese squadron rushed to a position of 50 meters before firing.
