"Tuanzi, I think the other party seems to have a problem, and why did you just say that we have one division?"
When reporter Fang turned around and drove back, he asked in confusion. Because he also felt that the road collapse on a sunny day was a little abnormal.
And Dragon Boat Festival said that there is a division behind, which is even more abnormal.
However, at this time, Duanwu took out the battle map and said, "What can you see from this map?"
Reporter Fang got closer, took a look at the map, and said thoughtfully: "We are walking from south to north. Although we are driving, we may not be as fast as the Japanese army, is that right?"
Duanwu said: "Not only that, we were still blocking the Japanese army at Sanchakou last night, and also went to the headquarters of the 48th Army. So the Japanese army has probably penetrated into Jiangyin."
"Wouldn't that mean we can't go to Jiangyin?"
Reporter Fang was surprised, but at this moment Duanwu smiled and said: "I don't think the Japs have that many troops to block the road to Jiangyin, otherwise there would be more than a few Japanese soldiers pretending to be the Northwest Army."
Reporter Fang asked back: "Then why don't we just kill him?"
Duanwu sneered and said: "Know yourself and the enemy and you will be able to fight a hundred battles. Taking action rashly without knowing the opponent's strength can only be detrimental to us. In addition, we are in the light and the enemy is in the dark, which makes me feel very uncomfortable."
After turning around the foot of the mountain, we parked the car and asked Lao Shou to take a look at it with the special agent company to find out the opponent's identity and number, and then we decided whether to fight this battle or not. "
"yes!"
Reporter Fang responded and stopped after turning around the foot of the mountain. As soon as the first car stopped, all the vehicles stopped. Officers from each battalion and company ran over one after another. Because it is obvious that something important must have happened when the group stopped suddenly.
After getting off the train at the Dragon Boat Festival, Zhu Shengzhong hurriedly helped him and said with concern: "Tuanzi, are you okay? Do you want Kobanjiro to come over and take a look at you? (Kobanjiro is the Japanese military doctor captured at Sanchakou)"
"Need not!"
Duanwu waved his hand, and then ordered: "Lao Snoring, lead the special agent company to conduct an investigation on the checkpoint and its surrounding area, which can be expanded to a maximum of two kilometers. The purpose of the investigation is twofold, one is the true identity of the other party, and the other is the other party's identity. The specific number of people will be reported to me immediately after the investigation is completed."
"yes!"
Lao Snoring took the order and left with the agent company.
At this time, Duanwu ordered again: "The second battalion is responsible for guarding, and the first battalion finds a place to camouflage the convoy."
"Tuanzuo, is this going to be a big battle?"
Zhu Shengzhong asked, and Duanwu raised his walking stick.
But when Zhu Shengzhong saw something was wrong, he quickly said: "Yes, I promise to complete the task."
Zhu Shengzhong ran away, and Sun Shiyu did not dare to ask any more questions. Because this is the rule of the independent group. There is not so much explanation for the regimental order, just execution.
Zhu Shengzhong led people to set up defenses, Sun Shiyu went to disguise, and Lao Shou led more than fifty people from the special agent company to investigate.
A recruit asked in confusion: "Since it is a reconnaissance, why did the regiment send so many people out?"
Lao Snoring said with a smile: "The command of the regiment lies in understanding. If it was just reconnaissance, just send a reconnaissance squad. But the regiment sent out the entire spy company.
The first reason for this is that the group is afraid that there will be too many enemies. Once discovered, we will suffer a loss. Secondly, we are afraid that the area to be investigated is too large and we do not have enough manpower. The regimental command is within a two-kilometer radius centered on the outpost. How could it be possible to conduct an investigation in such a large area without people?
Third, the group did not let so many of us go to investigate for free. Once you discover that the opponent is an enemy and there are not many of them, annihilate them on the spot.
Fourth, the regiment did not ask the 1st and 2nd Battalions to do this, but asked our special agent company to do this, in order to avoid using guns as much as possible. Because the enemy's situation is unknown now, the sound of gunfire is very likely to reveal our position or alert the enemy. "
The recruit said in admiration: "Company Commander, you are so awesome. You can analyze so many things from just one order from the regiment commander."
Lao Shou said proudly: "That's natural, otherwise why would I be the company commander?"
"I admire you!"
The new soldier gave him a thumbs up, but Lao Shou ignored him because of the next kilometer. Most of them use gestures to communicate with the most common bird calls in the forest.
Gestures are not the specialty of special forces. All trained soldiers know several common gestures. Because it is impossible to shout and convey information to each other when approaching the enemy.
It's just that ordinary soldiers rarely use this gesture. After all, they are not special forces, they are only responsible for killing on the battlefield. That's a confrontation with the little devil head-on, with real swords and guns, so there's no point in using gestures.
So hand gestures are not the specialty of special forces, they just use them a lot.
Veterans such as Lao Shou and Youzi have another way of conveying information, using hand gestures and the sounds of various birds.
You can make gestures at close range, and you can use the calls of these birds to communicate at a distance.
They used this contact method to quickly search the vicinity of the outpost.
However, no enemy troops were found near the post, only a few sets of Japanese military uniforms were found in the grass. The military uniforms were folded and hidden in the grass. Apparently someone changed their clothes here and hid them again.
Lao Shou seemed to understand something when he saw the clothes, and ordered: "You guys take care of this place, and I will take people to the front to take a look."
"yes!"
Those in the secret service company who could survive the battle at Sanchakou at this time were the elite among the elite. They are the best in shooting skills, fighting skills, throwing bombs, using artillery, reconnaissance, etc. Therefore, in their eyes, a few Japs who disguised themselves as the Northwest Army were nothing more than a piece of cake.
But there were no remaining Japanese troops nearby, which was abnormal. Lao Shou thought that they must have missed something, so he led his people to continue searching northwest.
Sure enough, when they climbed to the mountain two kilometers away from the post, they saw the Japanese camp. A large group of Japanese troops camped quietly in the jungle. They should be the Japs' forward troops.
"Go back and report to the group. I'm afraid we won't be able to go to Jiangyin."
Lao Snoring ordered, and then everyone retreated. And if there is a fight, Lao Shou will send people here to continue monitoring.
But Lao Shou didn't, because the Japanese had a large group hiding here. They only had more than a hundred people and they couldn't rush through. Therefore, Lao Shou felt that the group would definitely take another route, so he left no one behind. Otherwise, when the time came to retreat, he would have to order people to call the scouts back. This would be a waste of time.
And judging from the Japs' advancing speed and their intentions hidden in the woods, they were either preparing to sneak attack Jiangyin Fortress, or they were waiting for reinforcements! ...
