The old Japs in Kunshan County never dreamed that the more than 300 Japs soldiers he brought were nothing but mantises. When he was confidently preparing to intercept the Dragon Boat Festival, he saw enemies ten times his size.
His defense line was almost collapsed with one blow, because Dragon Boat Festival would not charge with human heads. It would be a waste to pull out so many shells from the little devil's arsenal and not use them to attack the little devil.
In addition to emptying the machine guns, heavy machine guns and other weapons in the Japanese arsenal, Zhou Weiguo moved the most artillery shells.
There are no less than a thousand rounds of various artillery shells, just for breaking out.
Therefore, the firepower of the Independent Regiment at this time cannot be resisted by ordinary Japanese soldiers, let alone with the advantage of a large proportion of troops.
A hundred rounds of artillery shells were fired, and more than half of the Japs were killed or injured in an instant. They had no intention of fighting, not to mention the large number of enemies. Unless the Japs commander's head was scratched by the arm of the plane, he would never be stupid enough to stay and face the enemy.
What's more, this is completely different from the order above. Didn't you agree to stop the Dragon Boat Festival alone? How come there are so many people suddenly there?
The Japanese commander was about to cry, and he fled in panic with those who were still alive.
But he also committed the taboo of military strategists because of this, leaving your back to your enemies, then you may die without knowing how you died.
Chasing them all the way during the Dragon Boat Festival, they drove the Japanese to the foot of Kunshan Town like chasing rabbits, and then chased the Japanese into the city.
There are cannons on the Japanese city wall, but their commander is still under the city. Do they dare to fire?
When his commander entered the city, the enemy also pursued them. Some continued to pursue, while others rushed directly to the city wall.
The Japanese on the city wall resisted, but in the surging crowd, they were soon overwhelmed.
The combat capability that the Japanese are most proud of is now like rotten wood.
This is the legendary master who was beaten to death with a stick.
Although the Japs are strong, there are many people during the Dragon Boat Festival. In addition, experienced veterans serve as company and platoon-level cadres, so it is difficult for the Japs to get an advantage.
The Dragon Boat Festival started at ten o'clock in the morning, but at a quarter past twelve o'clock the entire Kunshan County had been occupied. Most of the Japanese in Kunshan County were killed or injured, and less than a hundred people were able to escape.
Zhou Weiguo laughed loudly and said that it was fun to fight with the Dragon Boat Festival. Not only did they get out of Shanghai safely, but they also conquered Kunshan County with great momentum. If they had enough troops, they could fight a counterattack. , drove the little devil directly into the sea.
However, Dragon Boat Festival is not as optimistic as Zhou Weiguo. They seem to have won temporarily, but in fact they are still in the belly of the Japanese.
The Japanese pursuers in Shanghai haven't come after them yet, that's because the Dragon Boat Festival left a huge mess to the little Japanese.
The archives of the Japanese military headquarters were blown down, and the Japanese army hospital was captured, resulting in nearly 1,300 casualties.
In addition, the Mei Mansion, the gendarmerie, the granary, the oil depot, and the trading houses also suffered considerable losses.
Of course, although these losses made Matsui Iwane angry, they were not damaging.
After all, those who were let go were just some rebels. If they escaped, they could be captured again. Even if the business was robbed, Matsui Iwane didn't care.
At this time, what troubled him the most was more than a ton of gold stolen from the bank. This gold will be used to purchase oil from the United States. Once the transaction cannot be completed, the warships of the Empire of Japan will have to use oars to row.
So this batch of gold must be found and snatched back.
It's just that Xu Bowen is not a fool. Since he decided to rob the Japanese bank, he had already made arrangements.
The road is impassable. When leaving Shanghai, even if such a large car passes through the Japanese checkpoint, the Japanese will still track it away. What's more, a ton of gold is not a small amount, and it is not that easy to hide it. The only way to go is by water.
So Xu Bowen prepared a small steamer at the small pier in Shuibowan early to transport the gold away.
At this time, the gold has been loaded on the ship, and his only seven remaining men, including Cao Ying, are here.
Some of Xu Bowen's men died in the Japanese bank, while some of them went to lure away the Japanese, so these were the only people left around Xu Bowen at this time.
They were all trusted by Xu Bowen, not to mention that breaking through the Japanese blockade would require the assistance of Cao Ying and others.
So when Xu Bowen saw that the gold was finished, he said: "Let's get on the ship and I will take you out of Shanghai."
At this time, Cao Ying said with some worry: "Stationmaster, what should we tell the superiors if we just go like this? And what should we do with the gold? The special commissioner said that we should hand over part of it to the national treasury."
At the same time, although others did not say it, they actually wanted to share the gold. After all, the special commissioner had said that he had handed over half of the gold, and they could distribute the rest freely.
Although it is understandable that the webmaster takes the big head, they still need some soup, right? And more than a ton of gold, even a fraction, is enough for them to live for the rest of their lives.
It's just that they don't know that Xu Bowen has no intention of giving them a penny, and as for the national treasury? Not to mention that. He wants to take the gold to Hawaii, where he can play comfortably for a few months, and then go to the free country of the United States. He has heard people who have been to the United States say that the air in the United States is sweet.
So Cao Ying's question at this time made him very unhappy. However, he still needs to use these people. So Xu Boran said impatiently: "You don't have to worry about this matter. You will have your share when the time comes. Let's get on the ship first. When we reach the high seas, I will tell you our next destination."
At this time, although Cao Ying was suspicious, she had no substantive evidence and could only follow Xu Bowen on the boat. The ship headed for the high seas. Although Xu Bowen chose a relatively secretive route, a ton of gold was stolen from the bank. In addition to road blockades, waterways were also being patrolled intensively.
As soon as Xu Bowen's boat left the coast, it was discovered by a Japanese patrol boat.
"Stop the boat, stop the boat, we want to check!"
The Japanese officer stood on the bow of the patrol boat and shouted orders with an iron horn.
The captain of the boat looked at Xu Bowen, and Xu Bowen sneered: "Ignore him, just rush over."
"yes!"
The captain responded and turned on full power. The small steamer drove directly ten meters from the bow of the Japanese ship before the Japanese ship came close.
The Japanese officer was furious, chasing after him, and loudly ordered to shoot.
But Xu Bowen, an old fox, might have made arrangements for his escape a long time ago. He actually installed twin engines on the small steamer and drove it at full speed. The little devil's patrol boat couldn't catch up at all.
The little devil was furious and fired a few rounds. He could only curse and watch a small steamer getting farther and farther away from them.
However, the little devils will not let this small fire wheel go easily, because first, the small fire wheel did not stop during their interception. And secondly, even a fool can see that the small fire wheel has been modified.
Therefore, there are many doubts on this ship. How could the Japanese let this ship go so easily? They are using the radio to contact nearby patrol boats to pursue and intercept the escaping small steamer. They must not let it escape into the high seas! .....
