While the brigade commander was still thinking about the Japanese attack on Yangcun, the chief of staff returned to the brigade headquarters.
"Report to the brigade commander that the chief of staff is back and brought the corpses of two Japanese soldiers wearing our military uniforms."
The signal corpsman reported the situation, and the brigade commander rushed to the brigade headquarters compound and saw with his own eyes the body of the special agent team member brought back by the chief of staff.
"Brought back from Kong Jie's independent regiment?" the brigade commander asked, his eyes never leaving the corpses of the two Japanese.
In order to clear up the grievances, Kong Jie showed a rare act of generosity this time. The clothes of the two special agent soldiers were basically the same as when they appeared. Even the German-made MP38 submachine guns were still in their somewhat stiff hands. Set.
The chief of staff asked doubtfully: "Brigade commander, how do you know?"
"I also know that you came back with the two corpses of the Japs to intercede for Kong Jie, right? The Japs who attacked Yangcun this time are not the Japs' regular combat troops, right?"
The chief of staff was completely stunned and said in admiration: "No wonder you are a brigade commander. You can take care of all the world's affairs without leaving home. Zhuge Kongming, who was so wise as a monster during the Three Kingdoms period, was just like this!" "
The brigade commander said happily: "Don't put a high hat on me. I didn't guess it. Besides, you don't have to intercede for Kong Jie. I already know the situation over Kong Jie's side. I blamed him wrongly."
"Just ten minutes ago, news came that the Japanese army that attacked Yangcun at night fled all the way to the station of the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army. As a result, a battle broke out between the two sides. The 57th Regiment suffered more than 300 casualties. Even the regiment headquarters command post was blown up by the Japanese. It seems that except for the regiment commander Yang Chongshan, the deputy regiment commander, chief of staff, and more than ten staff officers were all killed in the command post."
After saying that, the brigade commander looked at the chief of staff, who was already speechless.
He pointed to the corpses of the two Japanese lying on the ground with some shock: "Brigadier, you said that the troops of the 57th Regiment of the Jinsui Army were attacked by surprise, could they be similar to this type of Japanese?"
"If nothing else, it should be them." said the brigade commander.
"How is this possible? I just came from the Independence Regiment. Kong Jie said that there were only seventy or eighty Japanese who attacked Yangcun this time. Kong Jie killed a total of forty-six Japs. I saw all the corpses. There are a lot of them, so after all, less than half of the Japanese escaped to the Jinsui Army."
"The 57th Regiment is also one of the main regiments of the Shanxi-Sui Army."
"The station is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It has more than 2,000 troops and even an artillery battery. With such a huge advantage in strength and firepower, can a mere thirty or forty Japs take over the regiment headquarters?"
"This motherfucker can't even make dough, right?"
The brigade commander was silent, looking away from the two corpses of the special forces soldiers lying down, and suddenly seemed to think of something. He turned his head and strode back to the brigade headquarters, shouting to the signal soldier: "Answer the call from the independent regiment immediately. "
"yes!"
"Hello? Brigadier? Brigadier, great, we finally have a chance to clear our grievances, what? The chief of staff has returned to the brigade headquarters? Yes, yes, that's right, brigade commander, when you see that Are there two corpses of Japanese soldiers? I..."
The brigade commander interrupted: "Okay, you kid, don't rush to talk about injustice. Let me ask you, the Japs who attacked your independent regiment last night fled to the 57th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army. Do you know this?" "
Kong Jie said: "Oh, I know. At that time, I sent the Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan to pursue this group of Japs until they reached the defense area of the 57th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army. Shen Quan even fired a shot to remind the 57th Regiment, and even fought with the sentries of the 57th Regiment. We communicated with them and told them that a group of Japanese soldiers disguised as the Eighth Route Army had sneaked into Yangcun and ran to their defense area, but they were not very grateful, so Shen Quan and the others went back home."
"What's wrong, Brigadier? What happened?"
Obviously, Kong Jie has not received the information that the 57th Regiment was attacked by Japanese soldiers.
The independent regiment that had just transferred to guard Yangcun was not as good as the brigade headquarters in collecting intelligence near Yangcun. This also shows the strength of the intelligence department of the brigade headquarters under the command of the brigade commander.
The brigade commander patiently recounted the information that the 57th regiment was attacked and the regiment headquarters was blown up.
On the other end of the phone, Kong Jie was silent for a long time.
"Damn it, what do these 57 regiments do? I originally expected them to wipe my ass and kill the Japanese who escaped, but why did it happen the other way around?"
After Kong Jie finished scolding people, he was also a little shocked in his heart.
The Yamamoto special forces, who had been severely wounded by themselves and fled, were still able to explode with such power, and took the regiment headquarters of the 57th regiment along the way.
Yamamoto, an old devil, is really not someone to be trifled with. If he didn't take advantage of the right time and place this time, he might not be able to please him.
Finally, they talked about some battle situations. Kong Jie explained honestly, including the amazing marksmanship, tacit tactical cooperation, and quite sophisticated firepower configuration displayed by the Yamamoto special agent team during the battle.
The brigade hung up the phone and let out a sigh of relief. He raised his head and looked at each other with the chief of staff. There was happiness in both of their eyes.
What an awesome team of little devils!
What a lucky general Kong Jie hit by accident!
In the words of the Chief of Staff, “If Kong Jie hadn’t guessed that there might be a Japs sneak attack from the cliff and arranged an ambush in advance, and the Japs had sneaked into Yang Village silently, the Independent Regiment would have been seriously injured. We are making the same mistake as the 57th Regiment!"
The brigade commander was silent for a moment, then said in a shocking tone: "Could it be that such a powerful, well-equipped, and well-trained Japanese army came for the Independent Regiment? Also, don't forget that the Independent Regiment was temporarily transferred to Yangcun. , that is to say, if we go one day forward, the Independent Group is not in Yangcun yet!"
"And if the independent regiment was not stationed in Yangcun, what would happen to this team..."
The more he spoke, the more outrageous he became. There was fear in both of their eyes.
“Headquarters!!!”
A unanimous answer.
A small Japanese combat unit was involved in this series of speculations, which made those who scrutinized it even more shocked.
The chief of staff swallowed his saliva while feeling palpitated, and said:
"So, Brigadier! Not only did Kong Jie not suffer defeat, he actually made a great contribution. He indirectly blocked the sneak attack from the outside and protected the safety of the headquarters!"
The brigade commander nodded and said with a smile: "Kong Jie is indeed much smarter than before."
The topic changed, "In addition, the Japanese sneak attack on Yangcun this time involves so many speculations. I'm afraid it's not trivial. I have given an order to Kong Jie to carefully recall the battle at night and write a detailed account of the battle and the incident." Analysis to determine the true identity and intentions of this devil."
"In addition, the situation at the headquarters must also be reported to see what the boss says."
"Oh, by the way, news came from the central government that after the graduation ceremony of the fifth class of our Anti-Japanese University graduates on New Year's Day, they began to leave school and be assigned to various ministries. A group of graduates applied to go to the front line, and some of our 129th Division also had quota.”
"After the battle at Cangyunling, the Japanese army blocked our base area very hard. We are afraid of accidents on the road. The boss wants our 386th Brigade to be responsible for the response work."
"Lao Zhou, please take charge of the specific arrangements and handover work."
"Yes, brigade commander, don't worry! Our brigade lacks cadres, especially these highly educated military and political cadres. I will bring back these students every hair of my head." the chief of staff responded.
