Some Japanese are just lucky, such as Anping Garrison Brigade Captain Nakata Kenyo, who is as slippery as a loach;
During the second attack on Anping, the Anping garrison suffered more than 300 casualties in total. The fatally wounded Nakata Kenyo fled to Luzhou. He was one of the few Japanese troops who participated in the war to retain a complete organizational structure!
Based on this, although he lost Anping, Xiao Zhuoyinan did not hold him accountable too much and just scolded him lightly.
After the Japanese occupied Anping again, the position of garrison captain was still held by Nakata Kenyo. Miyamoto once specifically asked the commander about this matter, and Xiao Zhuoyinan replied:
"A commander who can survive Chuxiong's siege several times in a row and save most of his troops is also a skill;
Staying alive on the battlefield is also an ability! "
After the Nakata Battalion returned to Anping, Xiao Zhuoyinan also allocated 400 supplementary troops and an infantry artillery squad to them. This enabled the Nakata Battalion to not only restore its strength, but also reach the size of a field brigade in terms of strength and equipment.
Anping City is too close to Liu Town and has been attacked twice by Chu Xiong's troops, so Xiao Zhuoyinan wants to improve the strength of the Nakata Brigade.
In the brigade headquarters, Nakata Kenyo was enjoying a delicious lunch leisurely. Although the combat effectiveness of the garrison brigade was not good, the life was very nourishing. They had food and drink, and they could make extra money. Old Japanese Nakata was a little happy to miss his childhood. !
Most of the classmates who graduated from the Army Corps with him were in the field army, and the best among them had been promoted to captains of the Colonel Corps due to their outstanding military exploits, but Nakata was not envious at all;
The reason is that those who are promoted to colonel are rare, and more trees have grown on their graves. He is now a lieutenant colonel, guarding a county, and can enjoy various Chinese delicacies for lunch, which is already very satisfying for him.
Nakata was carrying a plump roasted chicken leg and chewing on it until his mouth was full of oil. The orderly came over and reported:
"Your Excellency, Captain, the Inuyang Brigade coming from the direction of Luzhou to deliver supplies has arrived at the North City Gate, and the carts of supplies stretch for thousands of meters."
"Yoshi, follow me quickly to greet Inukai-kun!"
The orderly didn't know what was going on inside, but Nakata knew it, but this matter had to be kept secret, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
Two old devils, Nakata and Inukai, put on a full play and transported more than a hundred carts of supplies into Anping City with great fanfare in front of the people of the city;
There was also an interlude deliberately arranged in the middle. Several wooden boxes fell from a large truck, and Huang Chengcheng's bullets fell to the ground.
"Ba! Ba!"
"Bagaya road!"
The second lieutenant officer who was escorting the supplies gave a heavy soldier two hard slaps in the face, and he deliberately acted mysteriously. All this got into the eyes of some caring people.
That night, several radio waves passed through the night sky and entered Liuzhen and other places.
"Lao Chu, according to insider information, the Japanese transported more than 100 trucks of supplies to Anping City today in public, including ammunition and grain."
As soon as Chu Xiong took the telegram from Gao Wancheng and read it, he immediately felt something strange. The transportation of such a large batch of materials should normally be kept secret;
It's better now, not only are they not avoiding the public eye, but they are also worried that others will not know what materials they are transporting, so that amateur mistakes will not be so obvious.
"Lao Gao, you are the housekeeper and you want to transport supplies. Are you so blatant, lest others don't know that you are transporting food and ammunition?"
After Chu Xiong reminded him, Gao Wancheng also discovered the problem and said to Chu Xiong:
"Old Chu, what you are reminding me is that the principle of not exposing wealth is common everywhere. The devils have a conspiracy!"
Chu Xiong nodded and said:
"That's for sure. It's not like Anping City has never been attacked by us. Their behavior is tantamount to telling us that I'm extremely rich now, so hurry up and attack me -"
"Ha ha……"
Gao Wancheng was also amused. The two of them stopped laughing and said almost in unison:
"The devil is fishing!"
"Old Gao, it seems that the news that we are going to attack Anping City has been obtained by the Japs intelligence department. Xiao Zhuoyi'nan, an old Japs, is preparing to make a fuss about the city, so that the insiders in the city will continue to keep an eye on these Japs sending supplies;
See if they stay to help defend the city, or leave after handing over the supplies; at the same time, you also need to find out whether they leave secretly, or leave with a big fanfare like when they entered the city!
This is very important so that we can discover the true intentions of the Japanese. "
"Old Chu, are you worried that the Japanese will try to steal something?"
Chu Xiong nodded and said:
"Old Gao, I really can't think of any other reason. Anping City only has one garrison brigade;
The message we conveyed to the Japanese was to send at least 5,000 people to besiege Anping City. How could one brigade hold Anping City? If so many supplies were brought here, wouldn't they be delivering food to us? Is Xiao Zhuoyi Nan so stupid? "
"Old Chu, the Japanese have suffered several heavy losses from our independent regiment. Even if they are defending the city, they will no longer be so arrogant as to think that one brigade can withstand five times our strength."
Chu Xiong nodded and said:
"If it were replaced by two brigades, Xiao Zhuoyi'nan would be confident to defend Anping City. For a normal siege, more than three times the force must be concentrated!
Therefore, we can now judge that no matter what tricks the Japs play, the Japs in this brigade will not leave Anping City and continue to wait for new information so that we can better grasp the pulse of the Japs. "
At noon the next day, another news came from Anping City. After delivering the supplies, the Japanese from that brigade left in a big way, for fear that the Eighth Route Army would not know the same thing!
Chu Xiong couldn't help but want to laugh...
"Lao Gao, look at these devils, they have learned a little bit about Chinese culture and started practicing in front of the master. Isn't this an obvious increase in troops and reduction of efforts?
We were never afraid that we didn’t know about it, and they even made a scene about leaving in a swaggering way, which was simply superfluous!
Now it is certain that the Japanese are playing tricks and using Anping City as bait to catch our big fish. "
Gao Wancheng also understood. This was too obvious. This was not the way to increase troops and reduce firepower.
Playing with the art of war, China is the ancestor of the devils!
During the Warring States Period hundreds of years ago, the war of the century that was boasted was a battle between villages, or the kind where they were beating each other with hoes;
Compared with China's overthrowing war that mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops 2,000 years ago, it was just a play-acting game. Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, the so-called Three Heroes of the Warring States Period, were just a big Village security director!
The reason why they are suppressing China now is nothing more than the crushing of large agricultural countries by the industrial powers and the power of steel.
"Old Chu, now that we have figured out the Japs' conspiracy and they are fishing, then we just don't fall for their deception."
"What are you afraid of? I'm going to bite him, and I want to see what tricks Xiao Zhuoyi'nan is up to!
He can scrape together a force of ten thousand or eight thousand even against the odds. We and the brigade commander have gathered twenty thousand, but we are afraid that the Japanese will not be willing to give up the bargaining chip. "
"Lao Gao, I'll leave the base to you. I'll lead people over to surround Anping City and defeat the Japanese's intentions!"
